Sixteenth Sacrament: Progression
[ On the network this evening, it's Walter. He's sat on his sofa with some of his Pokemon around him; Reed the Decidueye is perched on the back of the chair and leaning forward because he is far too tall to be seen otherwise. Claudia, his alolan Ninetales, is sat by his legs and Assumption is sat right beside him on the chair. He waves when the gear flips on and Walter sighs softly. ]
My Pokemon have had eggs again. I have a list of the parents involved and what their offspring will be, for those who wish to purchase any. I only ask for 1000P for each egg.
I'm not sure why they've done this.
[ At that muttered aside, Reed coos and presses his forehead to Walter's crown. Assumption jumped up and pulled out a badge case, chattering excitedly. He opened it and showed the contents off to the gear; eight gleaming badges, all from the Johto region. Walter ducked his head bashfully, reaching out and touching Assumption's skull. ]
Urm...thank you. But nobody needed to know about that. [ Assumption just smiled and Claudia leaned on his side. ]

[Cissnei is wearing a sincere smile when she says it, the young woman clearly walking as she addresses the 'gear. Sitting on her shoulders, his front paws resting on her head and his chin on top of them, is Tseng who doesn't realize who is there with Walter right away but when he does, his eyes widen.
Is that..]
Claudia?
Seems to me they were celebrating your achievement.
no subject
Ah, thank you...but, they did not need to. They battled for the badges I have obtained.
[ alter shifted awkwardly, although his Pokemon clearly disagreed; Reed stepped from the back of the chair onto his shoulders, nearly folding him in half with his weight. As Walter struggled with Reed trying to fuss over him, Claudia smiled when she saw Tseng, a little self conscious. She had wondered how others would take her evolution...but it was something she had wanted, and it was an honour that Walter felt he was ready for her to evolve as well. ]
Hello Tseng. I hope this isn't too jarring.
no subject
[Never change, Walter. Seriously.
On Cissnei's shoulders, Tseng is definitely maybe blushing a bit, staring at the 'gear--staring at Claudia--with a look of wonder.]
N-No. Not at all. You look...you look amazing, Claudia!
no subject
I only trained them, and helped instruct them. It is their abilities that were tested by these battles. Claudia earned the Rising Badge.
[ Claudia lowered her muzzle modestly. ]
Thank you. I had wanted to evolve someday...but with Walter's nerves over large canines, I did not know when that would be.
no subject
Then I suppose I should congratulate all of you--human and Pokemon alike.
[Tseng shifts on Cissnei's shoulders, moving around so he's perched on just one side, carefully balancing himself there so he can get a better view.]
I'm glad you were able to. Evolve I mean. I guess that means Walter trusts you completely, doesn't it?
no subject
[ He was still incredibly bashful about the praise, but gave her a small smile. From above him, Reed gave an approving cry, spreading his wings - and nearly smacking both Assumption and Claudia. Woops. Claudia leaned from him, giving him a mild look - she was used to Reed's...flamboyant gestures, even if they were a little ridiculous - and turned back to Tseng. ]
Yes. It's an honour to have been chosen and to know that he trusts me so... and this new form has benefits I had not considered. Walter must have known but I am now immune to Dragon type attacks.
no subject
Seems like someone is extremely proud of you, Walter.
[Tseng frowns some when Claudia is almost smacked, giving Reed a slight glare before it softens as he looks at the object of his affection.]
It sounds like you're going to rather unstoppable at this rate, Claudia.
no subject
Reed is...not subtle, in expressing himself. [ Reed also didn't care. His head was bobbing to some kind of rhythm, even as he tucked his wings in and leaned over Walter's back. He did not care for Tseng's look, giving him a sharp eyed glance. Thankfully he wasn't about to kick up a fight, as Claudia was talking with him. ]
No, not unstoppable...I still have my weaknesses, as we all do, and there will always be a Pokemon capable of defeating me. But I hope to be strong enough to protect Walter.
no subject
[It makes things more interesting, Walter! Look at how adorable he is!]
Maybe, but I think you'll be able to give anyone a run for their money, Claudia. You have something worth protecting and that always makes you stronger.
