The return of spring is always a delight. On her usual morning stroll Wendy pauses for a moment listening to the cheerful melodies of taillow who have returned after a long migration. A pansear followed her closely he would stop every once and awhile to admire the white daisies which were beginning to bud.

Not being very observant the pansear accidentally bumped into Zachary. He looks up towards the trainer and tilts his head in confusion, before quickly dashing towards Wendy for protection.

"I'm sorry about my pansear, he's real shy and clumsy" Wendy walks towards Zachary upon seeing the interaction, rosy lips curving into a slight smile. "He didn't hurt you did he?"

From the outside Slateport is an incredible city with impressive structures and scenic landscapes. The same can't be said about it's locals.. A majority of them were aggressive and hostile towards her, overall unwilling to help her out. Wendy felt it wasn't all that surprising; given the troubling history of the city, she couldn't blame the residents for being on edge.


After wandering the city for quite a bit, she randomly came across HootHooters. Figuring it was a local restaurant as she's never seen it before her interest was piqued; it also helped that the mascot of the restaurant was quite adorable. She enters the restaurant knowing nothing about it, which is why she was surprised to see that most of the waitstaff were wearing rather Revealing and uncomfortable looking uniforms. She decided to hold her tongue following the hostess as she led her towards a empty table.


It didn't take long for a waitress to come and introduce herself. Except it was obvious.. that this waitress was new and clearly very very nervous. Wendy gives Mitsuki a warm smile which she hoped provided some reassurance, "Nice to meet you Mitsuki, that's a very pretty name." She smiles again giving a gentle nod when questioned on what she wanted to order taking another minute to flip through the menu. "For now can I get some Iced water please?" a generic request but she needed some more time looking over the appetizers and entrees.

Mitsuru Kagami

 
This was her first visit to the Upper Districts, and her time here has been extremely pleasant. There were many things to do in the districts, having spent the last few days enjoying exquisite food and luxury shopping Wendy decided to visit the pool for a brief respite. 

She exits the locker room of the pool, wearing a black sleek one piece swimming suit had delicate designs of a finneon. Wendy takes a quick look around, noticing Abigail and her golden tatsugiri. She's impressed how fast her tatsugiri was swimming, this was Wendy's first time ever seeing such a pokemon. 

Breaking her gaze away from the pool she turns her attention back towards Abigail. "Hello, hope you don't mind my intrusion." She states in a well-mannered tone smiling warmly towards the other woman, proceeding to step into the pool up to her waist.

Abigail Mikhaylov

"Indeed he is." Wendy responds with a delighted smile. The ambassador mentions how the pikachu saved him from running into trouble, and while her expression looked curious by what he meant she decided not to press him on it further. "My how generous of you." Wendy laughs softly quickly glancing over towards the pikachu signaling a thumbs up. "Eat as much as you'd like! This gentleman says it's on him today." The pikachu cries out ecstatically devouring the rest of the food.

Wendy turns her attention back towards Remiel upon his inquiry. "I would recommend our oceanwaves special." She smiles confidently once she gave him the recommendation, fully confident in her skills as a chef.

The lack of patrons did not bother her. She was still euphoric with the fact that her dreams were coming to life, Wendy also knew that things would not always start perfectly. And she would be quite the fool to let this small blunder deter her from chasing her dreams. She continued to wait patiently softly humming a tune to herself while reorganizing the menus.
[break][break]
It was then that she heard a familiar cry. She quickly glances down and her expression lights up with delight to see one of her favorite resident pikachu's return to her restaurant. Upon the Pikachu's arrival Wendy's foongus squeaks happily leaping off the hostess stand to greet the pikachu,"Welcome back, Happy to see you again." She calls out to the pikachu watching with a smile as the pair scamper away to their usual spot in the restaurant.
[break][break]
What Wendy did not expect was to see a person follow behind the pikachu. She had been so distracted by her other guest that she almost didn't notice him until he spoke up.
[break][break]
"Welcome to The Root! Of course, anyone is welcome here. Please make yourself comfortable and I will be right with you." Wendy greets Remiel in a warm and hospitable manner smiling towards the man as he walks into the dining area. Swiftly grabbing a menu she briskly walks over to the kitchen to grab the Pikachu's favorite food.
[break][break]
In a manner of minutes, Wendy arrives to the table where they sat. Nudging a bowl of colorful pokeblocks and pokebeans glazed with the sweet nectar of combee towards the pikachu and foongus. Wendy then hands over a delicately designed menu to Remiel, she offers a polite smile. "Please let me know if you have any questions on the menu. "

Amongst the glistening treetops of Fortree City, rested an aged two-story house that appeared to have been overtaken by the forces of Mother Nature. Thick spiraling branches and vines made it impossible to differentiate between the building and the tree. Various patches of natural flora and fungi sprouted around the house. Overall the appearance of the building would give one the impression of it being long forgotten and abandoned, a relic within the city that lives in harmony with nature.
[break][break]
But the building was far from abandoned; this was where her long-awaited ten-year dream would spring to life. The interior of the building had been completely transformed from a regular home into a cozy restaurant. The theme remained in alignment with the element of nature, the furniture looked rather simple but they were created using recyclable materials. There were also a few sun windows in place which made use of natural lighting instead of electricity.
[break][break]
The walls of the restaurant were decorated with large oil-pastel paintings depicting pokemon from various regions and the simple beauty of nature. Overall creating an idyllic and warm atmosphere for her patrons to enjoy.
[break][break]
At long last Wendy would be able to open the doors of her restaurant, ever since she woke up this morning she could not stop smiling from excitement. It was hard to describe her feelings of opening her dream restaurant in the city which held her heart. Wendy paced around the kitchen ensuring that everything was ready. When she felt confident she turned on the open sign and began to wait for her first-ever customers.
[break][break]
After a few hours passed, there were still no signs of potential patrons. Wendy rested her arms against the oak hostess desk "Maybe I should have sent out some more advisements. " She said as a light joke to her foongus who squeaked innocently in response.
[break][break]
When a customer did show up, they would be welcomed by a large hand-written overhanging sign. In elegant cursive letters, the sign read: "Anyone and everyone is welcome at The Roots.
