Re: ITT: We Are All in a Pokécenter

Makenna looks back when she notices Erich. She looks him up and down, her tail twirling nervously, not really used to the concept of an Archen.

Makenna: <…I'm… trying to find… find… > -- frowns at him -- <Uh, what are you?>

Silent starts brushing Lyle's fur more or less carelessly, not really paying any attention to his pockets nor to the stuff in them, which includes a food voucher, Pokégear and a couple of berries wrapped in leaves. What kind of berries? Schrödinger's berries, of course.

Pokéteco meanwhile looks around from his perch and decides that he's going to try and check the counter and the part of the lounge where the TV set is. He goes perch on top of the computer screen at the counter, not minding much if the Nurse is using it at the moment.

-Forte is pacing around, wondering what to do now-

Shadow: <Well, you could start by letting someone else out.>

Forte: Oh, sorry.

-Forte sends out Icicle-

Icicle: <Oooh, it looks all snowy in here!>

Shadow: <Dad, just because the walls are white does not mean they are snowy.>

-Seeing the picture-

<Audrey: "Ah... Cute kid... Feels... Adventurous...">

-And looks around-

<Audrey: "Okay... She's definitely still here...">

<Audrey: "... A hallway... Beds... Wait, do you also travel with a Geodude?">

-With Silent-

-Giving an innocuous and content look while quietly frisking Silent's pockets-

<Lyle: "(Hmm... There's something bulky in here... A pho- No... Pokegear... I could take that ransom, but I always get in trouble whenever I try that on anyone other than Tracer... There's... A paper... Probably a bus pass or something and... Leaves? What have we- Oh, score! Passho Berries!)">

-To Silent, hoping to keep him off guard with some content noises-

<Lyle: "Keep it up, you're doing good!" ^_^>

-To Makenna-

<Erich: "Caw! Silly dog~ I'm an Archen!" ^v^>

-To Icicle-

<Teala the Druddigon: "Er... But isn't it too warm to be snowy?">

-And looks around at the white walls-

<Teala the Druddigon: "Uh... (Well... It definitely doesn't look homely...)">

- Jack emerges for the bathroom-

Jack: For some reason, that felt like that took a really long time...

-He lets out an Abomasnow and his Beartic-

Abomasnow: -stands on his head-

Beartic: ...What are you doing?

Abomasnow: Masticating! Ommmmmmmmm...

Beartic: ...I think you mean meditating.

Abomasnow: No, it's definitely masticating.

Makenna sniffs the Archen somewhat curiously.

Makenna -softly growls: <Sorry… birds look all the same to me. Except Skarmory.>

She then offers a paw in a kinda handshake-ish gesture.

<I was, uhm, examining those Pokémon… wanted to know about them, too.> -- points to the Beartic and Froslass. -- <They look like ice-types.>

Silent meanwhile is gleefully petting Lyle, trying to push and pull his paws, but not the one in his pocket, which he doesn't notice.

"Huh, i wonder what is Pokéteco doing. He should have found that Nosepass already…"

The aforementioned Noctowl is staring at the nurse's terminal, not sure of why is she trying to shoo him, as well as of other things…

Pokéteco: <‘Error 1731’? Shouldn't you be consulting the User's Manual instead of trying to shoo me?> -- spins head 150º.

Wendigo: -bellows while still standing on his head-

Makenna turns to Klondike and nods:

Makenna: <Uhm, sure, I'm Makenna by the way…> -- buffs, turns to Erich -- <Uhm, little bird, give me just a moment this will be quick.>

She turns around and is only half finished muttering a <What's the issue?> when she notices the umop-apisdn Abomasnow (read that upside-down). She looks at the very least very surprised.

Makenna -to Wendigo, twirls tail: <…Huh. Ahem. Y-y-you realize you're upside-down, right?>

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

-Ferreting out a Passho berry from Silent's pocket... Trying to maintain his veneer of innocent contentment (which isn't that hard, it feels pretty good to be pat and be the center of attention)-

Silent meanwhile is busy petting Lyle and doesn't notice much.

Silent: "Huh? Going where? And what is taking Pokéteco so long?"

The aforementioned Noctowl is flying by the bathroom area looking for the Nosepass. He looks down at... something, and glares.

Pokéteco: <...Too much information.> -- flies away.

Somewhere else...

Makenna -carefully prods the Abomasnow: <Uhm, did you hear me?>

Back to the lounge area, Silent looks down at the Quilava.

Silent: "Oh,  should totally introduce my starter. Hang on..." -- starts fiddling with his other pocket (not the pickpocketed one).

Makenna yawns, wonders if she can do something else than wait for the umop-apisdn Abomasnow to acknowledge her.

Makenna -to Klondike: <You know, I should take a moment to go watch the cub.> -- stays there twirling tail, awaiting.

Tlimiz is still sleeping under the chair Silent was using some minutes ago.

Meanwhile, Silent produces a Pokéball and opens it up not paying much attention to where did that berry Lyle is noming come from. The Pokéball opens and out comes a Nidorina, who sits on the ground and starts brushing her quills.

Inka the Nidorina: <Free at last! I hate those machines...> -- looks around her -- <Ooooh company! :3>

Silent: "Only a little, Inka, the others went looking for a... something." -- pats her. -- "This is Lyle, someone's starter."

Inka notices the Quilava and flickers her ears, then waves her paw in a gesture similar to a hello.

To Erich, leering back:

Makenna: <Probably for the same reason why you ask questions. My tail does that when I'm concerned about something.> -- half-shrugs -- <It's a dog thing. Hey... Want to see a Eevee cub sleeping?>

To Lyle:

Inka: <I'm Inka....>

She decides stop looking around and looks up to Silent, then thumps rigidly. Silent sits on the ground and decides to pet her.

Inka: <...the boss of the team.>

Silent: "She's like... [REDACTED] years old. Isn't she cute?"

Inka -an ear up, being petted: < :⁅ >
