ketsuzoku​:

“Ah, Eilif! Perfect timing~”

Shielbert spins on the stool to face their way with the fabric samples, hands clapping with delight despite the pencil in one. He stands up not too soon after, brushing the eraser shavings off of his polo neck and riding pants before slotting the pencil behind his ear.

“Honestly, I was starting to worry that I might have had to come over with Clockwork. You and I both know how Volcaronas can be…” Spoken in jest, of course. He’s not about to start messing with bugs hands-on; Golisopod is about the most he can handle in any given moment.

“Now, let’s take a gander at these fabrics. I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I am for this; it’s the only thing that’s been on my mind all day!”

    EILIF TAKES THE jest in good spirits; Volcarona can be pretty fearsome, after all ( he would know better than anyone ). Donning a little grin, he enters the room proper, moving the two sheets of silk under his arm to hold one in each hand.

❝Crazy how much some honey and charti berries can help in a bind, huh? Luckily, Ribombees aren’t as difficult. I think I can say with certainty that your excitement is warranted! So, then, I won’t waste any more of your time.❞

    He holds out one of his hands, in it a sheet of silk that seemed to glitter when the light hit, the folds moving over each other like water.

❝Ribombee silk is up first! They’re friendly little guys, so getting ahold of more of this won’t be too tall a task. I did a small case study, and it seems like the flowers they feed from influence the color of the sparkle. I’ll keep looking into that when I’m out in the field. And next...❞

    Eilif ensures Shielbert is holding onto the one sheet before letting go and reaching into his satchel, stepping back and producing a singular match.

❝Now, volcarona silk doesn’t look too different from any other... but theirs has the one unique property I mentioned in passing before! Watch this...❞

    The match is struck and quickly held onto the side of the fabric... only for it to stay flickering, the silk in question not so much as darkened.

❝Totally fireproof.❞

◽ @touyatiredforthis​ ◽ remarked:

"That's a whole heckin' baby right there."

    EILIF OFFERS A fluttering sort of laugh at the statement, hands still struggling to keep ahold of the overly excited Kricketot that seemed intent on escaping his grip to climb onto the stranger in front of her.

❝You’ve got no idea how right you are... She tries doing this with just about anyone she meets; I can’t even begin to express how relieved I am that you find her as endearing as I do. You can hold her, if you’d like? I’m sure that would make her really happy, too.❞

◽ @88sugiru​ ◽ held hands!:

> Hold Hands Hold Hands

    IT’S NOT AN unexpected outcome, per se, but the action catches Eilif by surprise all the same. After the initial shock dies down, his hand closes securely and contentedly around Klara’s in turn.

oliver-frost​:

Oliver of course… Just grins in response ! He holds Eilif’s hands up a bit.

“I like your earring, too! And your freckles ! Ehe-”

He bounces a little on his heels.

“You’re like, SUPER cute. Has anyone ever said that before?”

Oh, wait- One of his hands is released, if only so Oliver could hold his own slightly cold hand to Eilif’s forehead.

“Are you alright, actually? You’re real red!”

    THE ONE FREED hand moves up to immediately tug at his scarf, the researcher squeezing his eyes shut in an attempt to calm himself down.

❝I’m!! Alright! I’m okay, I promise... I’m just, um. Not used to compliments? O-or talking? Mmn, let me. Let me start over...❞

    He takes a deep breath, calming the buzz of his thoughts and controlling the red of his cheeks.

❝Haah... Thank you. Sorry if I’m a little awkward. I, um... not a lot of folk talk with me much, ‘cause I’m usually out doing my job. And, uhm, I don’t usually get approached be folks I recognize. My parents are pretty big fans, back home. It’s, um. Nice to meet you!❞

[orbwoven]

oliver-frost​:

He has a VACANT smile on his face. There are no lights on upstairs….

“Hi !!! ! I don’t think we’ve met before ! I’m Oliver ! You’re really cute!”

    AH. OKAY, ALRIGHT. Eilif’s face takes on a somewhat darker hue at the unfamiliarity that came with being complimented ( much less form a stranger who was no less good-looking ). Right. Just keep your cool, ‘Lif.

❝A-alola-! I, um... I don’t think we have before, no...! I’m Eilif. Thank you??❞

    ISN’T THIS THE one ice skater that his parents rave about all the time??? What?? Huh????

Eilif Davidii has appeared! What to do?

    HUH... HE’S DOUBTFUL about his chances at half of these, but okay.

idealisticharmony​:

He was about to argue when he saw the Spewpa, the friend in question he assumed, a pokemon he found himself unfamiliar with… At most he could tell they were a bug type. He was rather tired of course, the things he did to help pokemon in need. Worth it, but still could be rather physically exhausting at times.

“I am alright. Perhaps tired, but nothing a nap later cannot fix. Can’t be helped, I came to get a few medical supplies for a friend.“

Though with the way he said friend, it was clearly implied that it was not human and more likely a pokemon. Traveling on his own a lot helping out pokemon, potions and such did tend to run out from time to time. At least he had the supplies now…

    THERE’S REALLY NOT much he can do if the other party insists he’s fine, no matter if the researcher believes that or not. Forcing assistance... he’s not sure he has the nerve for it, even if it was an acceptable thing to do. He’s admittedly of a mind to go about his business... until the mention of a possibly injured pokemon popped up. In an instant, the man’s expression colors in concern.

❝’Medical supplies’...? Is your friend hurt??❞

    The thought causes his fingers to fidget.

❝If that’s the case... is there anything I can do to help out? I don’t like the idea of standing by if there’s someone injured, human or otherwise...❞

    THE LITTLE HOLLOW plinks of the bug’s antennae only stop briefly as the Kricketot pauses to regard the girls offered hand, putting her little paws on the tips of her fingers before nuzzling her head on her palm. 

    ... Luckily, the girl doesn’t have to worry about the bug’s trainer for long, as it isn’t minute later that a tall, slightly-winded man approaches the two, looking equal parts exasperated as he does apologetic. At least it seems this girl isn’t afraid of bugs.

❝S-sorry! I swear I only looked away from her for a second... She’s um. Shes really affectionate, and sometimes she likes to run off and try to get attention from trainers and the like. She’s not bothering you, is she?❞

unimpressivethief​:

     The thief didn’t find this situation nearly as awkward as the other man did. He was more confused and disheveled. He let out another yawn, lifting his hand to cover it somewhat as the other man just yammered on. 

He looked down at his Pokemon and they looked up him before he looked back at the odd man,

❝ Eh, don’t worry about it. Was just enjoyin’ the weather. Though, you might be a little out of luck with the bug types in this area. My buddy here likes to chase them around. They might have left and went into hiding. ❞ He tapped the Sneasel on the head.

❝ Are you like- A new trainer or somethin’? ❞ Only assuming by how nervous the other man seemed to be.

    THE LACK OF reaction from the other only really serves to make the man more embarrassed, but he at least manages to reign in his tongue for the time being. A glance is offered to the sneasel in question, and he allows himself a grounding sort of inhale before responding.

❝Not... Not exactly. I’m not much of a trainer at all, really... I’m a researcher, hoping to look into the various potentials bug-type pokemon can offer... Er, but I’m sure you could do without my ramblings on the matter.❞

    He reaches up to scratch his cheek.

❝If they’ve run off, then I guess there’s not much I can do about it. Do you... happen to know what kinds your friend ends up running after?❞

britishpokechap​:

Victor watched the little bug type skitter on by, he had to fight the urge to aw at the little guy he was just that cute! Mushi was more than happy to interact with him, crouching down to get closer to his height so she could play! The brunet laughed softly at the display, how could someone not love it? He did perk up and look towards the other man when asked a question. “Ah, well not nearly as long as you certainly, I’ve been one for a little over two years now?” It was hard to recall considering it’s been said you lose track of time when you’re having fun and ever since he became a trainer that’s all he’s been doing.  “It’s certainly been an exciting two years…never really thought I’d be a trainer back then if I’m honest.”

    EILIF’S ATTENTION ALSO lingers on the bugs for a moment before being called back at the sound of Victor’s answer. Two years... it wasn’t as long, that much was true, but one would be surprised just how much can happen in that span of time...

❝Funny how a split second decision can change everything, huh? Becoming a trainer, getting a pokemon... that sort of thing really can become the start of something you never thought you’d be doing.❞

    Eilif can’t help but chuckle quietly at the almost cartoonish sentiment.

❝Is it... weird for you too? Thinking back on where you were before you set out? When I was younger, I never thought I was going to leave Alola... But now it feels like I’ve spent more time away than I did back home...❞

    EILIF HAD NEVER been very good at confronting strangers, even on good-intentioned terms. This time, it seemed, was no exception. The man shifts his weight nervously, only mustering up the initiative to respond at the feeling of a little prod from the pokemon hidden away in his scarf.

❝Mmn, are... are you sure? I don’t mean to come across as pushy, or anything! It’s just, um... my friend is pretty worried about you. You seem a little... dead on your feet.❞

    As if to accent his concern, the researcher’s Spewpa peeks up from his comfy silken hideaway to cast a wide-eyed glance at the other.
