* BAD / teacher

some slack  was given  during  the  trainer’s inhibition  of not being entirely  mobile for a long time. Like admittance would be given  to a flaw.  However Rival had a  little respect in his body  for authority. “It’s  just too  friendly  and playful  -  but it wouldn’t hurt anyone.” Rival never knew how to handle those.

A delighted trill was given, the Crobat unlatched with everyone unscathed. Taking his hand allowing the to latch onto, he didn’t look as excited - the woman just said that it’d hurt someone but asked if it wanted to play. “Dean, huh? I think you found what it wants. Are you sure?”

Lucy took a pokeball from her purse, and let out her Seviper. “Sevi…It seems as if a pokemon wants to make our acquaintance…” Lucy was not unfriendly, but she was hardened by her life. Like Rival her pokemon was much friendlier then she was. The Seviper let a soft, “Vipeerr,” and shook her tail in greeting.

With a book and his hands, Rival would try and pry the bat away. He just  had a  good hold, it’s feet having  a good  grip or it would rip away clothing and perhaps skin. This meant he had to interact with this person. Joy. Normally the Bat would listen but Mush, it’d bounce between Rival and right back in a playful manner.

"Idiot." Of  course  it was an  affectionate  term now. "They don’t have anything for you or me.” Mostly him to be honest.

"Alright. Lead the way." She gave the Pike Queen  a nod, letting her know that she was ready to get ready for any party. As they walked, she decided to think on an answer for Lucy’s question.

Lucy’s hands were dressed in fingerless black cotton gloves. The finger tips which were exposed were warm and soft. The gentle nature of her touch defied her snake like appearance. “I would rather die than have an underserving student injured…you can trust me…”

Whilst Lucy and Platina walked hand in hand, Lucy popped a cigarette in her mouth. “When I was your age I never…really enjoyed time with my peers....I was far from a cute charming girl like yourself….I was not particularly wanted…” By the time Lucy was Platina’s age she was a high class prostitute. A single rumor could ruin a girl, and she was a pantheon of devious behavior. One could say she was a natural born pariah due to the fact she refused to conform for acceptance.

“Do not worry…By dress code I mean designer….That no piece you are wearing should cost less then $5,000. And that is if you want to look cheap….” As Lucy ended her sentence they approached a beautiful house. Lucy had just unlocked the door before they both were greeted. The people she employed were there to make them look beautiful.

Lucy placed her hands on Platina’s shoulder “She is a princess….Make sure she is dressed in the finest clothes. Ones that would complement my style…without being as overly sexual…” Lucy looked down at Platina. “If you want to look more demure or dress more like I do...just tell them.”

As Lucy walked she heard the voice of a young girl. “Actually there are weekend classes sweetness…? As for parties…this city is drowning in debauchery… Though all the parties I know require a specific dress code…You seem quite lonely and in need of fun…I know of many places to do that…I have a stylist, hair dresser, and make up on call…If you are interested…”

Hearing about how the city was concerning parties caused Platinum to frown. “That bad, hm?” Plus dress codes? Debauchery plus specific dress codes did not equal to the same parties she was use to.

"Well, I haven’t been to a party for a while, but if it’s too much trouble just to get into one, then I better not." Wanting no regrets was a good excuse, right? Platinum sighed quietly to herself. She did feel a bit lonely — minus her Pokemon — since she hasn’t gotten the chance to make too many friends as of late. It was like playing a tough game of hide-and-seek, everyone was hiding, and she was somehow chosen to be it.

She thought about it for a moment, wondering perhaps she should give one of these parties a taste. This would also give her the opportunity to get to know more about the dean. So, in a way, she would be killing two Pidgey with one stone. Plus, a little fun couldn’t hurt.

“It is not that bad…if you have me. When you go out…what do you like to do? Whatever you’d like I can provide.” Lucy took a drag of her cigarette. “It would be no trouble to get you in….There is nowhere in this world that I cannot get into….””

Lucy took her cellphone out of her messenger bag, and took out her cellphone. For a minute she struggled to make the phone call but it went though. “Hey babes…can you get the team together…I have this gorgeous girl who needs your help asap…And I would not mind a little myself…Thank you~” Lucy smiled, “They will be there in 15 minutes…and we are 10 minutes away…” Lucy extended her hand to Platina. “Shall we go…?”

As Lucy walked she heard the voice of a young girl. “Actually there are weekend classes sweetness…? As for parties…this city is drowning in debauchery… Though all the parties I know require a specific dress code…You seem quite lonely and in need of fun…I know of many places to do that…I have a stylist, hair dresser, and make up on call…If you are interested…”

A nod. “I see… I am fairly new to the facility, so I was not aware of that. My apologies.” Upon hearing her words regarding technology, he perked up a little bit. “If you ever are in need of any assistance regarding something technological, anything at all, I would be more than happy to oblige.”

Thorton shook his head. “I will decline the alcohol for my own well being.” So she wanted to hear about him and his interests? That was rare. “Well… I am currently on hiatus from the Battle Factory of the Sinnoh Frontier and am teaching computer science at the university. As for my own personal project… I built a machine a long time ago to analyze statistics and possible outcomes for Pokemon battles, but I am always doing research to improve my algorithms and make my device more accurate. And since I do not know the Unova Pokemon as well as those from my home, I figured this would be as good a place as any to study them.”

“I do understand you sentiment about having peace to do my research…It is one of my few joys in life….What exactly are you working on?” She finished off her drink relatively quickly, and poured herself another.

Lucy shook her head, and waved her hand. “Thank you for the offer….I am an old snake…I can only shed my skin…I am quite ok with my way off life…I believe our society has become too dependent on technology….I would rather live my life without certain luxurious and be autonomous…then depend on a machine to do the thinking for me…”

Carelessly Lucy took out a cigarette, and lit it. I gather information about every single one on this campus….It often consumes my time…But it is well worth it and helps me run this campus….There is absolutely nothing that happens on this campus that I am not aware of. That is also an important thing to keep in mind...So I am more than happy to learn about one of my promising professors an ear…”4

“Yes…it says right here you are in the science department…” Lucy took her drag of her cigarette and smiled. “As a former Frontier Brain I am also into such statistics…However I do my calculations long hand or with a calculator…So it seems we have something quite spectacular in common…” She took a swig of her drink.”

“Not at all…your description is absolutely enthralling…I am impressed by your prowess….You are quite the impressive man..There isno need to be self-deprecating or doubt your abilities…Those who do not find you interesting are the problem not you…It is hard to impress me…and you have.” When Nejiki mentioned that what inhibited him was of no consequence she cocked her head to the side… “No it is of consequence…Anything that hurts or upsets my staff hurts and upsets me....If there is anything within my power to cure whatever ails you…Feel free to ask and I will accomplish it…” She snuffed out her cigarette. “Do not worry if you bore me….You have not yet..”

“Oh, also, if you swipe it to the riht, it opens a chat feature.. So instead of pictures, you can just type a message.”

Again, Eerie showed Lucy how to do it, and then a little Bleep Bleep happened on her Nav. It showed how Lucy has sent a chat message.

“Pretty nifty, right?”

Now that she had shown Lucy everything with Snap Chat, she wasn’t sure what else to do. She went on a limb and asked Lucy to meet up with her later.

Awkwardly Lucy attempted to take a picture of herself, but then blinded herself with the flash. “Ah…Maybe there are certain things I will never get keen on…”  She could not help but pout a little.

Although… Upon arriving at her office, Thorton immediately became uncomfortably aware that she was ridiculously tall — at least a foot taller than he was — and that he had to crane his neck to even look at her. Which was not only embarrassing, but kind of intimidating.

“I was on sabbatical for 9 months…I actually have been dean of the university for about two years now. Thank you for the welcome though. The person who was the interim dean was apparently useless. My filing system was in ruin when I returned.” Lucy motioned towards her desk, which had no computer upon it. “I am not technologically literate…and apparently they were inept when it came to old fashion pen and paper.”

And as she arrived at the front of the office building, she was witness to her ripping off a no-smoking sign from outside the door. A shiver immediately running down her spine, ahh, yes, she hadn’t actually met someone that had such a thrilling vibe from just looking at them, in a long, long time.

Stepping inside of the building officially, it was almost immediate that her boss caught her, calling on out. Tensing for a second, she stopped in her tracks. The door shutting behind her and she couldn’t just stand there without anything to do or say.

Gently taking it from her, Eerie looked through it.

“See this little icon? This is your App store. You can find all kinds of stuff in there, from languages to health, from games to books.”

She clicked it and typed “Snap Chat” in the search bar. Within moments the app popped up. She clicked it and installed the app. Hearing the woman speak her name, Eerie smiled.

“Lucy, eh? That’s a really lovely name. My parents named me Ennore, but most people just call me Eerie.”

A few moments later, the app was installed.

“You’re not very good with technology, are you? I wasn’t either, but then I got this phone and I feel hip and with it.”

She brought out her phone, and showed the other woman what an app was, and how to use Snap Chat.
