Breeding Center Open Log

Who: Everyone living at or visiting the Breeding Centre in Goldenrod.
Where: The Breeding Centre in Goldenrod.
When: July 10th through the 18th.
Summary: Several people planning to participate in the bug catching conventions have been invited to stay at the Breeding Centre. Between them and the current staff, what sort of shenanigans will they get up to?

(Note: All visitors/residents are encouraged to make their own threads. More than one of them, if you want!)
Rating: PG... Maybe up to PG-13 (watching you, Lancer).
Log:

The Breeding Centre was not a small building. In the past, it had housed several residents quite comfortably, but time and disappearances had whittled those numbers down to the point where there were now several vacant rooms.

This made it the perfect place to gather if you had business around Goldenrod.

Besides, with the amount of Pokemon that had been left behind and taken into the Foster Care, it seemed only natural to open up the doors to those who might be interested in seeing them.

And so the doors had been thrown open for several visitors for the duration of their stay. Now the only question was, would this turn out to be just what the Centre needed... Or a complete disaster?

All Pokemon in the foster home that are unclaimed and allowed for breeding are available!

Ilya had been fit to burst all day long.

This was the day that the groups were supposed to start arriving at the Centre, and she was very much looking forward to the new company, and a few arrivals in particular. She'd been pacing back and forth, trying to distract herself with food, playing with the Pokemon, and when all else failed, bugging Saber.

She'd been booted outside after a bit too much of that last.

So at this point she was seated on top of her loyal Rhydon, still waiting for someone to show up. But anticipation and boredom were cruel, and by this point she was beginning to wonder if anyone was coming at all.

"So slow..." She muttered.

It should probably be mentioned that it was barely past noon.

[ Whew! It had certainly been a long time since she stepped foot in this popular city. Even before she was whisked back home, her journey to better herself and try to complete her badge collecting left her with little reason to come back. Now, she's got several major reasons to be here.

Though, she has to stock up on supplies for a bit, so to the Department Store she goes! After a little fiasco with Bahamut wanting to go to the roof, Xion will be at the Breeding Center and getting herself reacquainted with the building and its staff. Since she didn't sign up for the Bug Contests, she could mostly be found helping around here, taking care of the Pokemon or helping with the business.

If not, she was mostly around or outside the city, training her Pokemon despite being at the max level besides a select few. It had been a long time for them, and she wanted to get in better connection with her old team. So out in the streets, the nearby routes, or by the docks riding the crown of a large Gyarados in the water is where she could be spotted. ]

Illya!

[ Not long before that call is made, does a 7' Garchomp fall from the sky and land almost directly in front of Illya with a loud thud, accompanied by the sound of the ground groaning and cracking under the force. Bahamut the Garchomp lets out a happy roar of triumph over his successful landing. Xion, on the other hand, is still clinging tightly onto his neck and making sure she doesn't slide from his dorsal fin as he stands a bit straighter and regards Illya quizzically.

After getting her bearings, Xion finally slips off of Bahamut and greets the other girl with a shy smile and wave. ]

It's good to see you.

Trance hadn't been working at the Breeding Centre that long. She hadn't even managed to run into all of her coworkers, yet, between trying to get all her own team settled in (and hatched... maybe working with so many available eggs wasn't the best idea?) and the occasional impromptu trip to help a new friend in need.

But now, this was just about perfect! Between the people coming in to breed their pokemon and the people arriving for the fancy bug catching event, business would surely be... well... busy! Not to mention anyone staying the night.

She'd be sure to greet anyone she saw (or anyone the Deerling prancing about managed to run into) but otherwise, she could be found bustling about the Centre, cleaning and doing everything to get ready for guests on top of her regular duties.

[The sound of her name nearly makes her jump, and she raises her head just in time to see Bahamut dart in like a meteor. Even Berserker starts beneath her, jerking his head up to glare at the newcomer and assuming a defensive posture.

At least, until his Mistress recognizes the voice.]

Xion! [Waving back significantly less shyly, Ilya beams down at her, already starting to scramble down Berserker to come closer.] I was hoping you'd be one of the first!

[Calmed almost instantly by his trainer's glee, Berserker lowers an arm, letting Ilya down to run over to Xion's side.] Did you get here on your Garchomp? I didn't know they could fly from city to city.

Garchomps can't fly for an extended period of time, though. Once they start to run and gain enough speed, they take off and can glide. It's something I discovered before when I was here previously, and I guess Bahamut wanted to try it out again. It's been a while for him.

[ Bahamut roars in confirmation, clapping his talons together in his excitement. Xion gives Illya a quick one up while adjusting the shoulder strap of her bag. ]

Sorry if we scared you. We still need to figure out a way to properly take off and land.

Oh. So you were already close when you took off on him.

[She giggles a little at the thumbs up. It's so cheesy, but it's still pretty adorable.]

I wasn't scared! A little startled, maybe, but that's not a problem. Besides, it was really impressive. I just hope you didn't spook the others inside too much.

--Ah, that's another worry, isn't it? We should check, just in case.

[ She motions for Bahamut to lean forward and stroke his snout as verbal way of saying, "time to behave now." He rumbles and obeys before Xion turns back to Illya. ]

I think the rest of my travel group will come by eventually. I told them about the place.

That's fine! We've got plenty of open rooms, and Saber's been talking about getting some of the Foster Pokemon out for some time with other Pokemon.

[Also known as breeding.]

But in the meantime, let's go inside and get you settled in. [She waves for Xion to follow her as she starts walking towards the doors.]

[ Xion follows her in, Bahamut close on her heel. He even makes conscious efforts to avoid things given his size and makes sure his tail doesn't shove anything aside. ]

How have you and Saber been?

Well, honestly things have been pretty dull since you and I talked last. I can't say they've been bad, but I'm kind of running out of things to do aside from mind the Pokemon.

[She ponders a bit, then starts leading them back into the rooms.]

And much as I love them, I can't spend all my time doing that. It's one of the reasons I've been looking forward to the contest so much. Was one of these rooms yours last time you were here?

Oh, Saber let me use her room and bed the last time I was here.

[ Just throwing that out there. Xion doesn't think much of it since Saber didn't and was generous enough to offer. She thinks on Illya's previous words, though. ]

Have you tried badge collecting?

She did? Where did she sleep?

[Granted, Saber's not at the Centre all the time, but...]

Oh, I've been doing that, I've got the Hive and Zephyr badges. But I've been here in Goldenrod for months helping Saber now... and you know I've been kind of avoiding Whitney. So I've been a bit stuck.

[ Guilt sets in all too quick (as it usually does) and Saber exits the Breeding Centre not even half a hour after exiling the young lady outdoors. Even when she attempts to justify it in her mind (shouldn't she be spending time with people instead of loitering?), there's no excuse that can qualm the wave of disappointing anguish at treating Irisviel's blood like so. ]

It is not all that late, you know. [ Holding out her hand with a little under half of a pull-apart popsicle, she offers it to her while the other melts partially around her mouth. ] They will come.

... Right? [ Who would turn down free housing? ]

... Actually, that's a good question.

[ Even she's stumped. ]

Hmm. So you want to travel out? Maybe you could come with me, Illya.

[ While Saber's normally the type to remain indoors and tend to business, there's no need for that this month. With so many volunteers at the Breeding Centre as of late, the buildings themselves are full and therefore she retreats to what she hopes will draw them out.

That's right, they have a pool here and with a table lined with appropriate snacks nearby, she's set to enjoy herself. At least she seems capable of doing that as she apprehensively approaches the pool with what appears to be a smile on her face. Once in the pool, she only sticks to the safe, less deeper end of it with her swimming. She's not entirely good at it, but she's learned a bit thanks to Shirou's mentoring. ]

[Captain Tasteless Shirt, on the other hand, wasn't swimming today. What he was doing was turning his back on the pool very quickly when he caught sight of what Saber was wearing.]

[Gods forbid he look remotely startled or flustered in front of his dokidoki bff.]

[Her eyes light up and she beams at that suggestion.]

Really? I'd love that! It gets lonely being out on my own... even with my Pokemon. And Saber gets worried, and when she gets worried she starts being... [Annoying.] Well, I just don't like it when she's worried. But if we're together...

[ It's like checking out jailbait.

Okay fine, so she's matured a little thanks to those scales that covered her chest months ago, but at least she looks as though she's completely healed from them. ]

Lancer? [ Wait, she needs to call him by his other name, doesn't she? ] You are wearing that shirt again.

[She doesn't seem all that put out when Saber comes out to her, probably because she knows full well she was being a pest. She shrugs at the semi-question.]

Well if they don't, I'm going to be very confused. I mean, with what you offered them, it seems ridiculous. Who'd stay at the inn or the Pokemon Center when they could be here?

[She accepts the popsicle and pops it into her mouth, licking idly as she tries to watch the sky and the street at the same time.]

How do you think they'll arrive?

[Turning back around, Lancer certainly looked reasonably composed.]

[Of course, one couldn't hear the litany of 'ohshitohshitohshitohshit' going through his head.]

Yeah, is there something wrong with it?

By foot? [ She's never thought about that. Traveling for her is riding on the back of her dragon Pokemon and train. ]

That would be the best assumption, but ah, they likely ride around on their Pokemon. The weather has been too warm for them to exert themselves and with Rapidash engulfed in flame themselves...

Bright. [ As if she needs to say anything more. ]

Most men do not wear them in the pool. You are going to join in, are you not? With the sun as hot as it has been...

[ Excluding that day a couple weeks ago. Random snow out of nowhere? What was that about? ]

I hadn't really planned to. It's pretty damn hot, sure, but it doesn't bother me too much.

[lancer]

[you're irish]

[you're going to burn like bacon]
