Lucia was still trying to comprehend the fact that she would be alone from now on. Father had started his journey home the day prior, leaving her in the care of the Professor until she was finally ready to leave the city and begin her adventure. It would be soon, yes, but for now . . she wanted to explore what this place had to offer. After all, the teenager had never been outside of Feldspar; fifteen years was more than enough time to get to know a city.
Aqua oculi danced around, drinking in the sights until, oh! What was that? "Circe, look! 'Rinder Corp,' huh? Do you want to go check it out?" The eevee made a nyuu sound up at her, long ears twitching simultaneously with her little nose. Lucia laughed, dimples apparent as she sputtered out, "I guess that's a yes!"
The two strolled over to the booth and neon sign, interested in what it had to offer. The boy behind it didn't seem very enthusiastic about his job, barely managing a glance in her direction despite her being the only current onlooker. Right hand lifted, digits coiling through those vivid blue locks as she stared — eventually he got annoyed enough to address her. "Welcome to the Rinder Corporation promotional give-away," he drawled, prompting an ooo from the girl. What could be better than free stuff?!
"To show our appreciation for all new trainers, we are giving out items to help you on your journey," he added, eyes rolling down toward the colorful batch of goodies next to him. "Would you like something? Lips tugged into a grin as she nodded, and Circe leapt up onto the stand. "Yes, oh yes, please. Can I have.." she checked the list of choices quickly, "a TM and a Grab bag?" The boy nodded, fetching a random choice from each selection.
"We also have special GPS chips for your PokeNav, if you have one. This brought her attention back up to him, though her body seemed to have tensed. The excitement drained completely from that expressive face, before she managed to murmur out a sad, "I don't have a PokeNav.." He stared at her for a few moments, apparently examining her truthfulness. One shoulder lifted for a shrug, then he grabbed a device from beneath the counter and slid it out to her, along with a chip. "Take it. Free of charge, just remember Rinder Corp."
Too happy to speak, she gathered up her new goodies and turned around. Circe nyuu'ed her thanks to the man and jumped down, and then the duo were off toward their next destination.
[ Received: 1 PokeNav, 1 GPS Chip. Event Choices: 1 Random TM, 1 Grab Bag. ] [/size][/blockquote]

I AM - I'M TOO FABULOUS , I'M SO - FIERCE THAT IT'S SO NUTS . j'adore vivienne habillez-moi . . I LIVE - TO BE MODEL THIN . DRESS ME ; I'M YOUR MANNEQUIN .
avril stretched her arms towards the sky, exhaling a small 'puff' of air. she was pretty tired - or, at least, tired of all the rocks and coal that she was seeing in this city. not that she preferred the setting of flint city more so than this, but she definitely wasn't a person who loved being dirty, nor was she a person who loved being around construction. it took up space and it didn't make the workers pretty to look at, either. you could call her conceited for thinking of it that way, because she most definitely was; and she didn't care, either. she just didn't like it.
vivienne was slinking through the blonde's legs, purring as it did so. perhaps it was edging avril to move along; the two had gotten to know each other rather well, having traveled so far away from their once home. so, the glameow probably knew how exhausting it was for avril to even be around the construction; honestly, she didn't like it much either. avril looked down at the creature, sighing. she decided it was time to get out of this place - the atmosphere was simply draining. she looked back up, now searching for the exit, only to find a blinding neon sign catch her eye. she wasn't really interested in what it said; she simply found herself annoyed at how much it wounded her poor pupils. storming over to the counter in a fit of irritation, she was ready to tell him off. she passed by a aquamarine-colored trainer, only happening to glance at the few items she had just gotten, not really caring much about them.
"ugh, honestly! who puts up neon signs anymore - this isn't a nightclub, or casino. some of us do not want to obtain new-found blindness from a stupid sign." she hissed at the otherwise nonchalant male behind the counter. he nearly frowned at her attitude for a moment, a bit thrown off, especially after meeting the sweet, young girl that had left a few moments ago. this one definitely had to be the exact opposite.
"hey, look, lady.. i don't put up the signs around here. i'm not the one you should be complaining to --" he started, only to be cut short by a stomp - or rather, more of a 'click', due to the heels avril was wearing.
"anyway. since i bothered to walk this far, mind telling me what this even is? and it had better be something good; i doubt you would want to see me any angrier than i already am." she continued, moving the subject along. vivienne jumped onto the counter, emitting a soft, yet snarly 'meow', as if it was cosigning with its trainer.
"oh.. you're a trainer? hey, then this is for you..!" he started, before pausing a moment to clear his throat.
"..ah, ahem. welcome to the rinder corporation promotional give-away. to show our.. appreciation," he started, offering a disgusted glance towards avril, as if he was annoyed that he was even using the word 'appreciation' for someone like her. ".. for all new trainers, we're giving out items to help you on your journey. don't worry, it should be more than good enough for you. go ahead, pick something." he nodded, motioning to the bag of goodies next to him. avril blinked for a moment, before nodding. this little event didn't seem like anything could really go wrong - it might even cheer her up, if she got something good.~ .. so, the choices were between a random tm, a random egg, and a random grab bag, and she could choose two.. hmm.
"hurm. okay, i'll take.. a tm, and.. a grab bag. i don't really need another pokemon just yet." she nodded, her irritation quickly dissipating. you couldn't really ask for anything better than free items; unless, you could choose what the items were. but that would be too easy.
the man nodded, moving to grab a random selection of the requested choices from the goody bag. avril was ready to leave, but he raised his hand to garner her attention once more.
"oh, also, uhh.. we have special gps chips for your pokenav. that is, if you happen to own one." this inquiry sparked an interest in avril; she didn't have a pokenav, nor did she even know what one was. with a flutter of her eyelashes, she tilted her head unconsciously, out of curiosity.
"pokenav..? what's that?" she asked - well, she was sort of demanding an answer, with a sweet tone of voice.
"oh, you don't have one? well, in that case --"
"oh, is that what that girl was leaving with not too long ago? are they, perhaps, free items for new trainers as well? i'm sure they are, right?~" she offered a cute little smile, and a few bats of her long, fluttery eyelashes. it was as if she were using that famous pokemon move, attract; and, well, the guy wasn't too old for her, either. huhu.
"..tch, fine, fine, you got me. here, take it." he frowned, unable to win against the demanding lady before him. reaching beneath the counter, he pulled out the pokenav, along with the mentioned chip. avril took all of her things, slipping the items into the respective pockets of her bag, before grinning.
"thanks so muchh.~" she said, in a very sing-songy tone of voice. she knew how to put on the charm, if nothing else - he'd probably forgotten about her attitude already. that, or he was just your garden-variety pushover. vivienne was clearly proud of her trainer's ability to get what she wanted, strutting towards the exit of the town alongside the blonde.
