Kanto - Schrödinger's Port Town - Pokécenter Entrance

-The figure of a nurse can be seen approaching a pair of automatic doors from the inside-

Voiced Doormat: "We hope to see you again!"

-Inspecting the sliding doors-

Nurse: "Hmm. They sure fixed that door faster than I thought... How worn out mons can cause so much trouble like that, I'll never know."

-And spots some figures approaching from the not-so-unknown outside-

Nurse: "OH! Looks like I'd better hurry back! Looks like we've got clients!"

-And heads back in towards the counter as Schrödinger's entrant comes in-

-Andrew enters the Center, and Approaches the counter-

Hello there. Could you heal my Pokemon for me?

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Nurse: "Oh hello, and sure. Reinvigorating your tired Pokemon is our specialty.

Did you bring their Pokeballs, by any chance?"

[spoiler]For future reference, it should be assumed that writing for nurses / clerks / and other NPCs here is fair game for everyone in the playerbase, so don't feel shy to put words in their mouths.

Of course.

-Andrew hands over Helena and Clockwork's Pokeballs-

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

-Robert hurries into the Pokecenter and over to the counter, a Pokeball clutched in his hand. A Vulpix trots at his heels. He starts to approach the nurse, then notices Andrew and drops back, awkwardly shoving a hand in his pocket-

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

-an Electrode slides through the doors of the Pokecenter, bouncing off a wall and skidding to a halt before hitting another. A Shinx quickly follows, pouncing on the Electrode cheerfully-

Amanda: -enters the center as well, sweatdropping- Why do I let my two most energetic mons out in enclosed spaces...

7

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Nurse: "Alright, thank you for that..."

-And places the Pokeballs into a machine that we've all seen like 80 billion times in-game by now-

Nurse: "Will they be resting here? Or with you afterwards?"

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

The door of the Pokécenter opens and in walks a small Eevee who then very proudly sits and looks around.

(Was this a Warner sitcom, the "guest star entrance applause" would probably start playing)

The Eevee puffs chest and yips contently.

Thou hast forgotten the face of thy Lord. Remember, mortal, and fear pet me.

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

-the Shinx notices the Eevee, his eyes going wide-

-he rolls the Electrode across the room until he is right next to the fox-

Curiosity the Shinx: <Hi!>

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

At a table in the Schrödinger's Port Town Pokémon Center lobby, a 17 year old boy is on a laptop, running some commands in a terminal and reading a wiki with many tabs open. In his lap is a Sableye toddler who is cuddling him. Beside his chair is a snoozing Mightyena

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

The lil'Eevee looks up at the weird cat mon on top of an Electrode. Tilts head and sniffs playfully.

Tlimiz: <Oh! H-hello! I.I'm an Eevee... what are you?>

Meanwhile a young man steps inside the Pokécenter and looks down at the Eevee first, then notices someone nearby working on a laptop.

Silent: Oh cool, let's hope the wifi here is not protected with WPAX45, my laptop's driver is borked...

The man passes by the Eevee and walks to the lounge where he sits near Jeff and starts unpacking some stuff.

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Curiousity: -stares- <I'm me!>

Spark the Electrode: <He's a Shinx.>

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Jeff:"-sees Silent- Oh hey there, need me to scoot over a bit?"

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

They'll probably be resting there.

Nurse:Alright then.

-Andrew leaves the line as the nurse heals his pokemon before transferrig them-

15

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Silent shakes his nead as Jeff asks.

Silent: "I'm Okay, thanks. I could use some info... do you have internet? My laptop is borked it seems, and doesn't pick up signal everywhere."

Leaves some of his stuff on the table and sits nearby Jeff, then produces a Pokéball.

Silent: "I'm Silent, by the way."

Tlimiz [spoiler]not a redlink! :3 - <A Shinx? I've never seen one. You look like a Meowth but more colorful!> -- wags tail happy of his discovery, turns to the Electrode. - <And you're an Electrode!>

Meanwhile, a staff member Chansey takes Andrew's Pokéballs from the nurse and disappears behind a door. Fortunately for our characters, this doesn't happen

The recovery machine's operating led lights up, as does an indicator in the lounge to let the clients know the systems are working on restoring some Pokémons's health.

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Curiosity: <Yay! :3> -reaches to nuzzle, falling off Spark-

Spark: <Indeed!>

17

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

-a boy walks into the center, followed by an Espeon-

Forte: -sigh- These TMs are so stupid. Only one use? How am I supposed to teach something good to all of you if it only works once?

-he then notices the Eevee on the floor-

Forte: Oh! Hi! Aren't you a cute little guy...

-and pets him-

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Silent sends out one of his Pokémon, out comes a female Houndoom.

Silent: "Makenna, would you be a dear, and keep an eye on Tlimiz and this stuff while I prepare some food?"

Tlimiz sees Curiosity fall, nuzzles for a moment. He's  about to ask something when he's lifted up by someone.

Tlimiz: <....Eeeeeeee?~> -- flails about cutely, stops when being pet -- <You are perceptive, human!> -- yips.

The Houndoom buffs, looks around and instantly notices Tlimiz being picked up, narrows her eyes.

Tlimiz meantime enjoys the petting and lets out some calculated purrings yips. Then it dawns on him that humans are sniffable.

Tlimiz: <…You smell like Eevee!> -- starts looking around.

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

-A man wearing a suit enters the center, wanting to heal his Pokemon, but he notices the light is on, indicating someone else's Pokemon are being healed at the moment-

Adler: Well, looks like I'll have to wait for a bit. In the meantime, I'll let you two stretch your wings.

-Adler releases a Swellow and a Murkrow from their balls, the Swellow looks around with a bit of a smile, while the Murkrow looks somewhat more nervous-

"Welcome. Do you have some... b u s i n e s s?"

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

-the Espeon walks over to Tlimiz-

Shadow: <Well, of course he smells like Eevee. He spends a lot of time with them.>

Forte: Hey, Shadow, what's he saying?

Shadow: <He says you smell like Eevee.>

Forte: Oh. Well, yeah.

21

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

-Curiosity flails around a bit, Spark watching dispassionately-

Curiosity: -climbs to his feet- <Problem solved!>

Spark: -deeming Curiosity uninjured, slides off-

22

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Tlimiz looks down at Shadow and puts up very big pearly Eevee eyes.

Tlimiz -notices Curiosity going away: <Oh there goes the Shinx! So,> turns back to Shadow -- <lots of Eevees? I only see my parents sometimes. See, I'm an only cub! :3>

Tlimiz starts flailing to try and get a hug from Shadow. This seems to catch Makenna's attention and the Houndoom walks over to where Forte is, sits nearby putting a "wary mom" face.

Meanwhile, the Chansey returns onscreen with a tray of Pokéballs and hands them over to the Nurse, who starts organizing them to return them to their owners. She turns the operation led off.

Nurse -over the speaker: "The recovery service is free again, please stop by over here." -- checks a paper with some names jolted down -- "Calling Andrew, your Pokémon are ready. Calling Andrew..."

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

-Adler hears the voice over the speaker-

Adler: Well, that was quick. I guess you probably don't need it yet, Baumy S., but I should probably, have you healed, Corvin. -Adler indicates the Swellow, then the Murkrow while saying this in some way-

-Adler recalls Corvin, then heads to the counter, not noticing Robert-

Adler: Hello. Would you mind healing my Pokemon?

-presents Corvin's ball along with another one-

-while Adler is doing this, Baumy S. goes over to the Electrode and the Shinx, wondering if they'll be up for talking-

"Welcome. Do you have some... b u s i n e s s?"

Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

The Nurse nods to Adler then looks at Robert for a moment.

Nurse: "Good morning. Don't worry, we'll heal your Pokémon." -- grabs the two Pokéballs and jolts down some notes quickly -- "Would you prefer to give me your name to call you over the speaker later, or just come ask at the counter when you think they're ready?"

The nurse then turns to Robert. "Do you need something?"
