 budew lvl 7 absorb - growth - water sport playful/adventurous/outgoing Aislin stumbled out of the cafe, the laughter of the other patrons following her out the door. She clutched her bag that much closer to her, trying to blink away the tears of shame at how fucking STUPID she was! Nestled inside the designer purse was a trio of cherish balls (two empties and one holding the precious cargo from the lab down the street), her starter pack, and the two eggs she’d gotten from that...that…“Charlatan!” she huffed, bringing a startled look from a passing youth, as she began stomping her way towards the fountain. Yes, her first day in town and she'd already been hustled! Duped! Given what she was told was a Purrloin egg only to find it was a stinking KOFFING when she was of course bragging about it in the cafe and then to be CORRECTED like she'd been was just UGH SO HUMILIATING! It was time to get the hell out of Dodge. She was intent on walking the rest of the way out of town, having returned the keys to her rental car between the lab and stopping for lunch in the cafe. It was on foot from here on. Her heels were traded for comfy sneakers and her chin was set with determination, jutting out as if to lead the way. She didn’t make it far at all before a twirl of water splashed up into her face and a tittering chime of laughter bounced its way to her ears. She whipped her ponytail’d head in the direction of the laughter, ready to give whatever brat was playing in the filthy fountain water a piece of her mind, when she spotted the Budew landing again in the water and twirling its buds to swirl the water off in big fat droplets. “Oh...” she gasped, stopping in her tracks. Her blazing trail to Route 1 was forgotten as she took in the sight and her mind instantly completed the evolution chain in its potential. And this was one of the swarm pokemon wasn’t it? So only out for a limited time... A little baby enjoying the sunshine and water. She stepped over, trying not to cringe too much at the continued splish splashing. ”Hey little……” did these things have multiple sexes? Should she make an assumption of gender either way? ”buddy.” that was neutral enough. She had a seat on the edge of the fountain. She thought maybe she could let her other baby pokemon out but…..probably not a good idea to let Elekid around water, right? Like that was a type no-no. She really should learn these things...type differences usually didn’t matter when you were used to solo performances and only worrying about the spectacle and aesthetic. But something told her common sense came into play with things like electricity and water. The playtime stopped briefly, long enough for the budew to glance up at the human greeting it < Hi! Wanna play wimme? > she trilled, bouncing again and making the biggest splash yet. Aislin nearly broke the strap on her purse with how quickly she moved it aside to avoid getting wet, ”Ahhhh….” she hesitated and wondered if it would be worth the yuckiness of the fountain water to try to get this pokemon to come with her. Ugh, a Roselia or a Roserade would be gorgeous in the right contest routine. ”Sure!” she agreed, digging into her bag for an empty water bottle and a travel bottle of vanilla scented hand sanitizer for later. She could always wash the bottle later. A quick dip into the fountain and screwed the cap back on...then SQUEEZE! A sputtery jet of water hit the budew and elicited the loudest giggle yet. Aw hell yeah, aced it. She repeated the game quite a few more times, each one getting the same reaction as before - the little dear never got tired of it. But the sun was a little further along in the sky by the time Aislin’s arm was cramping and she wondered if it was about time to ask the baby along. “Hey, if you like playing in this I bet you would LOVE playing in Cygnus Lake! It’s a lake down Route 1 that I’ve heard a lot about - would you like to come with me and see it? Maybe we can find more fountains in more towns, too!” The budew didn’t take long at all to decide. The thought of a whole lake to play in and so much more to see was all too tempting. She hopped up out of the fountain and gave a quick shake off of water, unfurling her buds to catch the sunshine and dry out < Yeah let’s go! > Aislin laughed, that was easier than she thought it’d be! She reached into her bag, plucked out a cherish ball, and pressed the button. Budew disappeared in a flash, her peals of laughter following her inside. words: 823◆ @staff ◆ notes: this was 2 many word |
