IM DOUBLEPOSTING IM SORRY

[guiltyeyes]

Who: Mari Ohara and Bertolt Hoover
Where: some cafe in celadon
When: A day or so after the Contest
Summary: THEY ON A DATE
Note: CLOSED



[ A few days after the Contest, Mari had agreed to meet up with Bertolt in a setting that wasn't so packed like it had been at the show. She'd had fun, he had fun (allegedly) and for some reason, he wanted to thank her for her help with his ability to go onstage-- and, like, find his Trapinch when it went AWOL for a minute.

She didn't get WHY he wanted to thank her. It was her job to make her friends feel good and have them achieve.

But she would never in her right mind turn down a chance to hang out with them. If he was leaving for Blackthorn soon, she couldn't miss that opportunity. Besides, she liked him a whole lot already.

They had met in the main lobby of the hotel and she had hung onto his arm the entire way to the cafe like a koala to a big tree. Now they were seated across from one another, Mari sitting back in her seat with her cheek in her hand. On her plate sat a cream cake with a Pikachu carved out of a lemon rind for decoration and some goofy purple fizzy drink sporting a Gastly umbrella. ]

Ah, Bertolt... Thank you so much for taking me out! You really didn't have too~

You've been real sweet on little ol' Mari~

Hm... [ Mari sets Ruby on the table and lifts up the TINIEST portion of her cloth to slide a bit of cookie under. To her surprise-- and with a yelp --whatever is under there almost takes her finger off until she draws it away quickly. ]

Ruby--!!!

[ She looks from the Mimikyu and up to Bertolt again, embarrassed. ]

I-- She's not usually like that! But she's so shy about her little cloth thingy... Poor baby. I don't know what to do about that...

_{[Bertolt can't help but wince when Mari cries out, and almost on reflex his Aggron pushes himself up into a sitting position - not for long, just to check out the commotion - and he slowly eases himself back down.]}

I've had some Pokemon like that, so I understand. My Deino bites me a lot, but that's... _{[That's just Deino in general, really.]} It could also be something related to her species too. I'd have to ask Jean if his ever acts like that.

_{[Jean was the Mimikyu expert between the two of them - Bertolt didn't have one himself, so at the very least he could either ask him, or put Mari into contact with him.]}

She didn't hurt you, did she?

[guiltyeyes]

No, she didn't! [ Mari does check to make sure she has all of her fingers. Ruby's usually so gentle. Faced with food, she's gotta be a monster. ]

If you have a friend who knows things about Mimikyu, you should give them my number. They're so mysterious. She reminds me off my friend at home-- That's how she got her name.

Ruby's a real cutie who is super shy. She really dazzles onstage like a little Fairy~ Juuust like this one here! [ Despite the previous incident, she holds the creature to her cheek and nuzzles it. ]
