valentine's day

[shiminon]

Ha. That was strange. People really were desperate to hook up with someone for this stupid holiday. Shinon sneered at nothing in particular as he began to exit the student dormitory, throwing open the heavy doors that exposed him to the chill of the outside world. Damn, did he need that.

A prick. Did he just feel the smallest impact as though an unknown archer shot him with an arrow the size of a toothpick? He rubbed his shoulder. "Tch. Okay."

Well, they're pretty basic, sort of! *she grins, completely unaware that this is very unlike Shinon and that he might be completely different tomorrow* They're elemental creatures that use a kind of magic to fight. I specialize in training water-types!

[shiminon]

[Yeah, Shinon's a pretty smooth guy. He's always been under the impression that women like to talk about themselves and their interests. This is the guiding rule for him and hitting on women.] "I guess I get it. So you use water types? Fitting." [He cracked a smile.]

*Misty was totally swayed by this, though more on the side of being friendly than being romantic. She laughed softly.* Really? Well, I am a very big fan of swimming and the water at all! I even love the snow just as much!

*She glanced about for a few seconds at the white, fluffy wonderland, and then thought of something.* Do you want to see one of my Pokemon?

[shiminon]

Sure. Why the hell not. Could be interesting. [A playful note was thrown into his tone.]

Alright! *she pauses, wondering which one to send out, but decides on her staple Pokemon* Starmie, I choose you!

*Poof! Out comes an 8-pointed-star type starfish Pokemon. It lets out a bubbly noise and tilts its star points back and forth as if greeting Shinon.*

[Oh Goddess Ashera he's never seen a thing like that before. Naturally, a dude like him feels fear, but he quells it easily.] That's a pretty weird lookin' thing. [He realizes that she may be offended by that remark and Shinon is trying not to be mean but it's just his nature!] Never seen one of those before in my life. What's it called, now?

It's not that weird. *Misty gives him a look as if she were bothered by that comment, and then continues on.* It's a Starmie! It's a water and psychic type Pokemon.

*Starmie's star points also drooped a little at being called 'weird'.*

[shiminon]

[He shrugged.] Like I said, never seen one before. So... is it like a pet or something? [Shinon's attention was much more directed towards Misty, but it wasn't like he wasn't bothering with the Starmie. After all, with the way he was feeling, he wasn't trying to pick up a one-night deal or anything. He just wouldn't admit it to himself.]

*It made a little more sense to her, so her smile began to return. Maybe it did seem a bit strange to people who never even thought Pokemon would exist.* It's kind of like a pet, but more like a best friend and partner! They can also fight other Pokemon in friendly spars and train with their trainers. Starmie and I have been through a lot like that!
