Two years. And to think I was told my stay here had a good chance of being 'temporary'.

Still, I suppose ferrying a small batch of unadopted Pokemon eggs over to Souji-kun's Breeding Center and then spending the rest of the day in the comfort of what's come to be my "own home" is still preferable to spending it mass-evolving a brood of six rambunctious Eevees, and decidedly superior to the circumstances new trainers customarily find themselves in when they first arrive.

It's a small concession, I suppose, to the much more desirable option of returning home properly — but then, I suppose Johto does have its certain advantages as well.

Shall we have a match today, Niou-kun?


[OOC: There are still free eggs left if anyone is interested in claiming one!]

At present, I'm taking a batch of Mareep, Miltank, Shinx, Remoraid, Slowpoke, Stantler, and I believe Vulpix over to the Breeding Center. It's a fair assortment.

[[She reads the list over and gives it some thought. She already has Ampharos, Luxray, Octillery and Ninetales...She doesn't think she needs Miltank or Stantler...

Well. Maybe Miltank, but she was considering getting one after she had a house.]]

Hmm...
I might actually be interested in a Slowpoke egg.

I'd be more than happy to oblige you, if you'd care to take one. They're a bit simple, understandably, but these ones do come with a fairly interesting moveset, as Slowpokes go.

I would love that.
And simple is quite alright. I've worked with a multitude of different types of Pokemon at this point, there is nothing wrong with adding simple to that list.

Then by all means, let me oblige you. I'm grateful for it myself; it's one less egg to worry about, really.

[tentacletrainer]

Wonderful, thank you!
How much do I owe you for this, by chance?

Text;

[usedlaserbeam]

Absolutely nothing, though I won't turn down gratitude or the offer of an IOU, in the event that you someday find yourself with a batch of eggs of your own.

[tentacletrainer]

How about both.
You have my gratitude and an IOU.

[usedlaserbeam]

I'll cheerfully accept it.

And you have mine, of course, for taking one more egg off my hands.

[tentacletrainer]

Well as a fellow breeder, I know how egg batches can be.
But I will gleefully accept yours as well!
