The fact that he had even remembered her name or her routine or anything of the sort genuinely warmed her. Although she wouldn't have taken offense to the mistake to begin with, she took even less offense simply due to the warmth she was experiencing from the man.[break][break]

"I had the day to myself, so I made the trip. I just can't stay away, it seems."[break][break]

Thea smiles softly, but averts her attention from Kosuke abruptly, her expression momentarily severe as she watches the Espeon bump the incubator. Although she didn't physically move forward, there was a lurch in her throat at the slightest possibility it might have fallen.[break][break]

"If you need, I can watch the egg. I'm sure you've errands to run and work to do."[break][break]

Her voice trails off, however, as she realizes how forward she's being. She has no business interfering with his situation - and she's off-duty. Taking care of children and younglings wasn't in her job description today. [break][break]

And yet, she doesn't withdraw, and instead waits for his response.

The choice that lead her to a simple meeting relating to work at a beach-side restaurant was quite peculiar. Had it been her suggestion, they might have met at a quiet little cafe somewhere in Lilycove. This place was much louder and windier.[break][break]

It was beautiful though, she had to admit. Refreshing really, from her typical preference for stuffy and stiff interaction. She genuinely felt a little more at ease here, despite the nervousness in the back of her mind. This was out of her comfort zone, surely, but perhaps that was a good thing.[break][break]

Regardless of the emotions she feels, Thea Rhodes portrays no ill will or suggestion of discomfort when she, too, is lead to the table. Despite her habit of arriving early, it seems her partner is even quicker. This pleases her, and she dips her head in greeting.[break][break]

"Mr. Leivern, sir. It's a pleasure."

Thea blinks in surprise at the greeting, glancing over her shoulder at the woman who had entered. The ring of the bell had been heard but otherwise disregarded - she had more important things on her mind.[break][break]

However, the greeting causes her to chuckle just a little. She slides the book back into place, fingers lingering on the spine before straying back to her side. The blonde looks to Kosuke, then, a note of amusement in her expression.[break][break]

"I'm well, but I think you might have mistaken that poor girl for me."[break][break]

She had already entered the store earlier. She had merely kept her peace due to Kosuke's investment in his own business. Thea was not the type to intrude on other's progress - especially not when they're busy.[break][break]

Regardless, Thea glances past Kosuke to the egg and the Espeon worrying it.[break][break]

"Do you have your hands full, Kosuke?"

While out of the way from her cozy apartment in Lilycove, the weekly trip to Slateport to visit her favourite bookstore was worth it. She had discovered it on a local tour - their pitstop in the downtown of upper Slateport had quickly left her behind as she'd buried her nose in a book too deep to pull her back out of. [break][break]

She'd had to find an alternate way home that night since the tour guide had picked up another passerby to replace her. But her money had been well spent because she'd found her favourite place on earth. The smell of old books and new was like an addiction and she kept coming back for more.[break][break]

In fact, Thea has stopped by earlier that usual. While she normally stopped by on Friday's, she was here in the middle of the week. [break][break]

The woman licks her finger delicately as she gently swipes through the pages, pilfering a random find she'd found tossed aside on the shelf. It hadn't been properly put away and her own curiosity got the better of her before she found it's rightful place.[break][break]

Although she appears quiet and reserved, the woman wears a subtle smile.

decidueye's silent watch

POSTED ON May 25, 2020 1:06:48 GMT

Thea happens upon a garden, drawn to it due to the beautiful berries and the Decidueye hidden in the trees. She had quickly come to visit the garden frequently if only to glance upon the beautiful Pokemon that stares back at her with cautious intent. She says nothing every time she visits, until she stumbles upon a Misdreavus approaching the berry-laden plants.

"And what do you think you're doing, child?"

Her voice is even and cold, surprising the Misdreavus that had clearly assumed it was alone. It provides Thea a convincing MEAN LOOK to try and scare her away, but she's been on the receiving end of her fair share of her own ghost-type Pokemon's attempts at intimidation. She doesn't let it scare her.

"These berries don't belong to you. You know better, I know you do."

She takes a step forward and the Misdreavus seems to quake with the intensity of her voice and expression. Its as though Thea looks through her ghostly visage to see the troubled child behind it. It makes a move to attack her then, charging a SHADOW BALL.

However, the move is quickly negated as the Decidueye SHADOW SNEAKS or something, approaching rapidly to tether the shadow ball to the ground with a well-placed arrow. It leaves Thea with an opening to capture the Misdreavus in an empty capsule. She dips her head respectfully before scooping up the Misdreavus.

"Thank you. She is my responsibility now, I'll keep her safe."

She can't tell if there's guilt behind his eyes. All she can see is his stubborn refusal to apologize. He leans, professing indifference in the face of her questions. He answers her questions with his own and it surprises her. Irritates her.

"You are impossible."

Grief ceases the skin of her nose as she raises her hand to rub her face, forcing away the pain that sweeps briefly across her face. She composes herself quickly.

She draws closer, pushing unspoken boundary. Her eyes continue to search his, as if questioning his very soul.

"I think you know what I'm talking about."

His answer is unsatisfying and she stews on it. [break][break]

But she eventually finds her hands working to smooth invisible wrinkles in her shirt. It helps her think, to keep her hands active. Helps her to reason through situations she can't figure out immediately.[break][break]

"Don't belittle me," she says, her voice firm. Even still, however, she remains patient, calm. "That's a poor apology. My students grovel better than you."[break][break]

She sighs, clearly hurt by his insistence to move on. It finalizes what she had assumed - she meant nothing to him. She never had.[break][break]

"Is that what you really want? Did I really mean nothing to you? I don't believe you."

"I work here, in the city. We discussed that."[break][break]

Thea blinks, eyes narrowing ever so slightly, unsure what to make of the surprise written in the crease of his features. She's surprised to see that he's surprised. His reaction isn't what she expected, but she isn't sure anymore what she had expected.[break][break]

She opens her mouth to ask something but it occurs to her that she isn't sure what she wants to ask. Anger dies in her throat because she's decided that she isn't angry. She's disappointed.[break][break]

"What was the point? Is this a game to you?"

She cringes inwardly, quietly, without breaking composure as she interrupts the man. It was evident she hadn't been listening to their conversation at all, however one-sided it had been. Her heart was hammering because she had absolutely never expected to see him again. It was clear by the ghosted texts and the expression on his face that he hadn't really expected to see her again either.[break][break]

Thea lets out a quiet breath at her forwardness, steeling herself for what was to come next. But it doesn't occur to her that he would play the fool. He leans back against the table to observe her and she almost feels violated despite the careful clothing she wears. Even still, she can't mask the flush to her cheeks at his greeting. One might almost find disgust flash behind her pretty green eyes.[break][break]

He attempts to hide his feigned smile or barely concealed expression - it betrays the indifference he's trying so hard to give her. Thea swallows again, straightening her back as she speaks evenly.[break][break]

"You know damn well what questions I have, Lance."

The silence lasts a near eternity before the children perk back up with questions. It's as if the entire room then takes a deep breath to resume normality, though she can still feel the scrutinizing and questioning stares from her peers. It doesn't make her uncomfortable, however, and she remains poised and polite, her expression never faltering from her quiet smile. He won't rattle her.[break][break]

Not even when he stoops down to whisper back to the child, warranting a giggle and a quick glance over to Thea to see if she had noticed. She had.[break][break]

Ultimately, however, the room is filled with more questions and Thea remains reserved and quiet. Her fingers betray her mild discomfort or agitation with the situation, clenching as they're tightly balled against her legs.[break][break]

As the meet and greet comes to an end, Thea helps usher the students into partnered single file. She is, of course, held up by her friend who not-so-subtly insists she stay behind to talk to Lance like she clearly wishes to. Despite the woman's hushed complaints and the faint tint of her cheeks at his betrayal, the woman relents with a soft sigh. The friend leaves, insisting he can take care of the class while she steps aside.[break][break]

The room is left empty save for herself, Lance, and an event staff immersed in conversation with the man. At first she waits patiently and awkwardly to the side, waiting for the person to finish their thought and move on. But she catches Lance's gaze, however brief, and she swallows her pride, or whatever emotion keeps her tethered to her escape route.[break][break]

"Excuse me, I have a few questions of my own. If you don't mind."[break][break]

She steps up to interject and there's a firmness to her tone that suggests she'd like to speak with him privately.

By the time Lance gets to her question, Thea has since knelt down next to the little boy who's tugging at her pant leg has become incessant. She whispers softly to him, words of encouragement and reassurance more than anything before eventually ushering him to join the crowd and overcome his timidness. As soon as he leaves she moves to stand up only to feel her back stiffen in surprise when she hears her name fall from his lips.[break][break]

Her friend shoots her a flabbergasted look that screams 'I thought you said you didn't know this guy' but Thea doesn't tear her eyes away from Lance's face. Her own expression reflects her surprise but still retains its calm indifference. She breathes out a small sigh, releasing the breath she'd been holding.[break][break]

Thea folds her hands in front of her, fingers interlocking and stroking her thumb as she gazes evenly at the man. The children seemed only temporarily unphazed by his blatant use of her first name. One speaks up quite boldly to correct him.[break][break]

"It's Miss. Rhodes, mister. She doesn't let anyone call her..." he hesitates, tossing a cautious look over his shoulder to see if his teacher is watching. She is, so he cups his mouth as if doing so will hide what he's about to say. "Thea. She says it's informal or something. Not that I even know what that means."[break][break]

The woman blinks, feigning indifference so as to not cause a scene. She is conscious of his attention lingering on her from time to time, but she makes a point to avert her gaze and avoid his attention whenever she catches him studying her. Despite the flat expression on her face and the sweet smile she offers her students, she can feel the discomfort creeping up the collar of her shirt. It feels warm in the room all of a sudden but she's aware that no one else looks flushed or uncomfortable.[break][break]

She really wishes her friend would stop making a blatant effort to look between her and Lance.

The class is ushered to the meet and greet meeting room long before the argument could escalate out on the field. Thea watches with quiet fondness as the rowdy boys mimic Lance, ushering orders and racing about the room as if they were the Shedinja that had single-handedly taken down two Machamp. [break][break]

However, as soon as their new hero arrives they quiet down and sit in front of him as he introduces himself. Front row, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. The rest of the children soon fall into place on the floor behind them, the shyer of the bunch hanging back or hovering with their parents. A little boy tugs at Thea's pant leg and she extends her hand for him to hold onto.[break][break]

Several children begin to pepper the man with questions, asking things like how strong his Shedinja is, why it looks the way it does, what it was like beating the Sinnoh league. They also ask him his favourite colour and morning routine among other irrelevant things. Eventually, Thea clears her throat quietly to effectively shush the crowd of excited, pestering children. They glance over their shoulders to gaze up at her expectantly, their voices quieting down to a hushed whisper.[break][break]

"Why don't you tell them what it's like being an ace trainer? How hard you worked, what you learned on your journey to where you are now."
