Log:


Taking a break from her morning routine to catch some lunch, Cheria can be found at a little sit down restaurant just north of the radio tower. Surrounded by a bright, shiny Leafeon and an overly friendly Espeon, she's got her brush in hand and is presently working on a Flareon's fur. The sassy boy keeps making annoyed sounds in between brushes, while she works on a particularly knotted patch, and she seems a little too distracted to notice anyone approaching right off the bat.

That sure doesn't mean her Leafeon and Espeon won't though. Anyone approaching, let alone walking down the street, will get tag-teamed with love from both; Espeon at least will only go for the shoulder, where as the Leafeon is far more inclined to rubbing up against the unfortunate victims legs, possibly tripping with how hard he's pushing his body against them.

Dodge some loveys and approach the trainer?

[Unfortunately, this boy did not know he would need to evade on this day. So instead he's knocked off balance, pinwheels in an attempt to right himself, and ultimately hits the pavement with a thud]

[fairycircle]

[The thud is what makes Rem huff and hop right off Cheria's lap, because her hands have stopped and she's blinking in surprise at the sound; before immediately getting up and dropping the brush, rushing over.]

Oh my gosh, are you okay? Nana, Chrys, did you seriously just trip him?!

[darkaura]

[He looks down at himself, taking a moment to assess before he looks back up at Cheria]

No damage. [And with that settled...] These two are yours?

[fairycircle]

[Doesn't change that she's mildly scolding the two Pokemon who are just dyiinnggg for afffecttionnnn and now are ignoring the scolding to rub at her legs.] Yes, they are. I'm sorry about that Rin!

[Leaning down, she's picking up both Pokemon under her arms so they quit almost knocking her over.] Chrys was always such a well behaved boy, and then he evolved and has taken to rubbing up on everyone he meets, gosh. Nana I just adopted from the foster home, and from what I was told, she's always been this way.

"So then the guy says "That's not a-", Hang on, is that Cheria over there?" Ron had been walking down the other side of the street with Frederick, when he spotted the flash of pink hair.

"Hey! Cheria!" he shouted, waving.

[fairycircle]

Looking up when her name is called, Cheria spots Ron just past a few thick tufts of Rem's fur and brightens. Lowering the brush and letting the Flareon hop down with a huff, she lifts her hand to return the wave.

"Hey Ron! How are you doing?"

[Ushio comes around a corner, her Golett holding her hand, and her newly evolved Flareon at her other side. She happens to spot Cheria and waves with her free hand.]

Cheria?

[fairycircle]

[It's her own Flareon that perks at the sight of another one, and with both Rem leaving her lap and Ushio calling her name, Cheria beams brightly and returns the wave, moving to set the brush down.]

Hey, Ushio! [Up in the next moment, Cheria is taking a short jog over with her Leafeon and Espeon taking up guarding her table, and Rem is far more interested in enjoying the other Flareon's company.] How are you doing? Hee, looks like we finally get to meet in person!

[alonelyworld]

[Once Cheria's in range, Ushio hugs her.]

I'm doing well! What about you?

[fairycircle]

[Ushio is getting a good squeeze back, and a light hair ruffle while Cheria crouches to be more at her level.] I'm pretty good myself. I was just doing some brushing for Rem here, but he keeps fussing like I'm doing it wrong. I've brushed hair on Pokemon more times than I can count, so I'm starting to think he fusses just to fuss.

[Jade has been out shopping and running errands and she's decided to take a bit of a break herself! She walks into the restaurant, Bec following at her heels, and oh wow, those are some friendly Eeveelutions headed toward her.

It takes her a moment to notice their trainer since she's attempting to avoid getting bowled over, but when she does, she calls out and waves.]

Cheria! Hi!

[fairycircle]

[Looking up from the cranky Flareon's back, Cheria beams a smile and moves to set the brush down and let Rem escape the grooming session, if only because she's trying to call her other two over.] Nana, Chrys, don't knock anyone over again!

Hey Jade, what are you up to?

[eclectical]

[Jade laughs a bit.] They sure are friendly! Anyway, I've just been out shopping and running some errands.

[fairycircle]

They've knocked down three people today with their incessant need for cuddles. [It makes her siiiiigh, up and trying to herd her Pokemon back to her table.] I hope they didn't go and interrupt if you were super busy.

[lovechronicle]

[Mitsuki is about to head out from the same restaurant, followed by a Lopunny and a Jolteon and a female Pikachu - well, the Pikachu is sitting on her shoulder, but details. Looks like someone's as cheerful as ever and stuck somewhere in her own little world again, too busy to notice a face she'd recognize from egg shopping.

But then she gets tag-teamed by team adorable. What?! Oh, okay. She can take all the love, no problem, and they amuse her pretty much. The Leafeon could be able to make her fall, but her Lopunny is just going to stop her from falling down. Careful there, Leafeon, you don't want to anger the bunny.]

It's okay, Mero-chan. They're friendly. [But she'd call anyone friendly! Anyway, she pets them both as much as they want.] Where did you two come from?

[fairycircle]

[Chrys chitters and then tries to lick Mitsuki's hand rather than answer, but Nana is the one who circles the hand over her and then turns, facing the table where Cheria is sitting. On hearing someone talking and worrying that someone was about to fall again, she's halfway into setting Rem down and getting up, and then --

That is a face she recognizes.

Mitsuki! Hey, how are you?

[lovechronicle]

[She's not too worried about the falling down part with all her experience of falling down. Chrys licking her hand makes her giggle, but her eyes focus on Nana and she looks up to see their trainer... Might be about to say something that people usually say to strangers, too.

Ah! Mitsuki recognizes her too and she'll get a wide smile.]

Cheria, hello! I'm fine, just finished eating and wondering what to do next while Takuto is still at work. How are you?

[fairycircle]

I'm good! Been taking a break to get some grooming in before I went shopping. Would you like to join me? [Shopping, grooming, both are acceptable yes answers!]

[seetheflower]

Cheeeeeriaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

[ After this call, Menma had jolted awake, taken a shower and dressed herself in record time. Though it's not like her friend might go away if she was slower, she feels that she can't waste anymore time as she bursts out of the Breeding Center without telling anyone where she's going.

Yelling her name out loud, the kid will just about tackle her, Cheria's Pokémon be damned. They're gonna get squished in the love too! ]

[fairycircle]

[Well she heard the squeal first and has enough time to move Rem out of her lap and stand, and then caught in a tackled hug that was strong enough to make her have to stagger back into her chair; not that Cheria minded, laughing and hugging Menma tightly.]

Menmaaaa!!

[seetheflower]

[ She squeezes Cheria in a tiiiight hug, spreading happiness everywhere! ]

I'm so happy you're here! I didn't really expect you to come so soon, weren't you somewhere far away just the other day?

[fairycircle]

Just in Cerulean, it's not too far from Saffron, and that's where I hopped on the train! [Squeezing and giving Menma a good ruffle on the head, Cheria can't stop beaming such a smile.] It helps that I have Pokemon that can fly and carry me along.

[icansolvethemtoo]

[Sadly, Flora really sucks at dodging. As the two pokémon pounce on her, she finds herself giggling and reaching up to try and pet them, lost in a fit of giggles.]

Oh, hello! I appreciate the hugs, but shouldn't you two be with your trainers right now?

[fairycircle]

Ahhh no! Chrys, Nana, you're being so rude! [Running over and half waving the two snuggly doggish critters away, Cheria goes to help Flora up before she realizes she recognizes her.] Hey Flora! How are you doing? I'm really sorry about that, they're just so rambunctious today!

[icansolvethemtoo]

Their names are Chrys and Nana? [Flora giggles again, taking Cheria's hand as the girl helps her back onto her feet.]

It's okay! They're really cute, so I didn't mind at all. How are you?
