Fire ice and thunder will you just hold still? I know i know you don't have to bite me just stay like that a second and it will be done with! You want to look your best don't you? I'm sure you want out of this place as much as I want you gone so just let me- there. See that wasn't so bad now was it? Now you'll look all pretty and giftwrapped. hopefully he agrees.

Hi, Professor! I like your paper shredder; it looks very efficient!

It is futile....

I wish she would shred papers other than the ones I need for work.

"You'd better be decent, I'm coming in!~"

The voice of Casimir rings through just seconds before the door to the office opens, The fellow professor kicking it open carefully with a foot while holding a glass something behind his back, not concealing it all that well due to it being a bit wider than his torso.

"Are you ready for this? I have- what the hell happened in here? it looks like a storm blew through. And the blanket, did you sleep here?"

Bellamy is looking at least slightly less disheveled, now fully clothed and paused in the process of pulling a brush through their unruly hair. Rather than answer the question Amy instead points at the sort-of hidden object that Casi carries, eyebrow raised.

"Why did you bring a punch bowl into my office? And are you wearing lipstick?"

This seems to do the job of distracting Casi, at least momentarily as her expression splits into a grin as she turns to face Amy across the desk.

"It's not a punch bowl! It's a deal! An offer you cant refuse! Because I'm your boygirlfriend and I would be sad if you turned me down."

With a bit of a flourish (and a little effort, this thing seems to be much heavier that he was letting on) Casi sets down a strange glass bowl on the table, the handle on the top showing its for travel of some kind. Inside is the angriest looking Qwilfish anyone has ever seen, and that's saying something. Her unusual reversed eye markings matching Casi's eye makeup exactly right down to the twin birthmarks under her eyes, something she seems extremely pleased with herself about.

"Tada! See, I got you the Qwilfish you asked for! I picked this one out special, doesn't she look just like me? I figured you'd think of me everyyy time you see her!"

The revelation seems to actually take Amy aback and they let out a laugh, at least as much in surprise as in humor. It takes a moment for them to get their thoughts in a straight line, a few johtonian syllables here and there as they take stock of the situation.

"Casi, I was joking- I didn't expect you to actually catch me a Qwilfish. And it's color, that isn't one of the ones from your program is it? The endangered ones.... Fire ice and thunder it really does look a little like you though..." Their voice trails off a bit as they lean over to inspect the new pokemon, which spins in a circle squeaking as its spikes trail up against the glass. Despite everything its hard not to see the excitement in their expression at seeing such an unusual poison type, their fingers too trailing against the glass.

"Technically she's from a breeding program we do with Blueberry Academy. I think if they're letting teenagers study and handle these guys then you'll do fine!" She laughs, clearly giddy at finally getting to present her gift to her lover.

"Buuuut I didn't do this purely out of the goodness of my heart." To punctuate this Casi taps his fingers against the desk a couple times in a mock drum roll. "I want your Meowth."

It takes a couple seconds for Amy to respond, still looking at the novel fish before blinking a couple of times up at Casi. "..... wait, really?"

"Is that really so surprising? Arlene and I have really bonded! There's a trade machine in the lobby and everything! Please, love?" She looks up at them, obviously putting on a show of pleading.

"No I- I mean yes, I-" Amy straightens up and laughs, deep and genuine, muttering something to herself in johtonian before continuing. "Tenshi, Daarin, I was going to try to convince you to take her home with you. I mean-" they gesture at the cat, perched on the back of the couch and looking proud of herself, "I even managed to get a bow on the frostdamned thing. I thought i was going to have to sell you on this."

Now it's his turn to look dumbfounded before letting out another laugh, sputtering in surprise. "Wh- I thought you just wanted to get her all dressed up!"

The shorter professor looks ready to jump over the desk to hug Amy, but with the large glass container in front of him he seems to think better of it.

Instead he opts to take their hands into his own. First their hands are clasped in excitement, before he seems to take notice of all the little scratches and begins to smooth over them. "We really had the same idea then huh? You endured Arlene's wrath just for me.."

Amy's voice softens as they chuckle, letting out a of a breath and seeming to calm under their partner's touch. For the first time in a while we see some of the tension in them dissipate, a weight lifted. "I would endure so much more for you my Tenshi. Anything you asked."

Casi presses a kiss to their scratched knuckles. "I know you would dear... But you don't have to endure everything. Sometimes I wanna do nice things for you too."

With a few more little kisses his gaze meets Amy's. Despite the professor's best attempt at hiding it, he could tell she wasn't getting much sleep lately. Was the stress of their trip the problem or was there something else? He gives a soft smile to try and keep the mood light.

"So let's use your lobby's fancy trade machine and maybe we can relax a bit before our flight.."

Amy's eyes crinkle with their smile, extenuating their crows feet. There's a softness in their voice when they continue, bringing one lipstick stained hand up to brush back his hair. "That sounds perfect. I've missed that.. I love you."

PROFESSOR AMARYLLIS!!!!!!! BEHIND YOU!!!!!!!

[professor-amaryllis]

:{ A photo is embedded. A large pile of finely shredded paperwork covers most of Amy's desk and a good portion of the floor around it. next to this pile is a stack of untouched (and unfilled) paperwork. within the pile of paper shreds lays a large and rather lithe alolan meowth who smiles up at the camera. }:

Arlene we can NOT keep doing this. Please...

Casi lays on her side half propped up by a pillow on a couch in what must be her living room. Looking about half alive she's been thoroughly bundled in a blanket and blearily looks at her phone with one hand while the other lays in top of a happily snoozing Arlene, a very large oddly patterned Alolan Meowth that stretches out along side her.

In front of her sits Amy, settled on the floor with their back to the couch, reading through a large, heavy book which title cant really be made out. Casi's hand trails thoughtlessly through the ends of their hair, a motion that neither seems to be paying any real mind to.

Curled up next to Amy lays Cheddar who glares across the room at Cooper and a small group of other hisuian sneasel who seem to be having quite a good time chasing each other around.

:{ Transcription ends. Yeesh, what happened to him?? ':3 }:

Well at least Arlene seems to be enjoying Casi's misfortune, I haven't seen her quite so cuddly in a little bit.

:{ A Video file is embedded. [Location Redacted], Kanto. 12/18/23 3:37 pm. }:

This video opens mid argument. The afternoon sun shines glaringly off of the snow covered countryside of what can be assumed to be somewhere in Kanto, though without any true landmarks it is a little hard to tell exactly where. We find ourselves in an old, well worn vehicle of some sort, from the looks of it a station wagon, though its hard to make much more out from the inside.

In the back an interesting array of pokemon lounge around the luggage and supplies the professors have brought. A very large Salazzle and a Charmander compete to squish their faces against a single window- despite there being other windows that are completely free- while a Weavile glares up towards Amy in the passenger seat, seemingly unhappy with their existence. In the far back a large faintly spotted Alolan meowth sleeps on a blanket with a happily dozing hisuian sneasel.

Turning back towards the front Echo begins to pick up more of this argument between the two professors. Amy, who seems to be attempting to wrangle a large paper map while also working around a shiny hisuian sneasel on their lap, is insisting that they have things handled and they're sure that they're on the right track. Casi on the other hand seems to be much, much less sure about this and is insisting that they stop for directions.

Casi: I really don't know why we aren't just using Echo to navigate, or just the gps om my phone. This is way more complicated than it needs to be.

Amy: You and I both know why I turned our location off, and the GPS doesn't track us if it doesn't know where we are.

Casi: Yeah, because lost in the Kantonian countryside is much safer. You got me there.

Amy: Look. It's fine. See here we must be on- um. No wait here, it has to be. Hm. Well-

Casi: You have no idea where we are.

Amy: It's been thirteen years give me a break!

Casi: If you aren't going to ask them I am.

Amy: You don't speak Kantonian?-

Casi has already pulled the car over by the side of the road, however, and frustrated exits the vehicle and approaches the first person that he sees, an older man who seems to be simply enjoying the clear winters day sitting on a bench and scattering seed for the local Pidgey and Spearow. Her tone is friendly and cheerful, and she smiles at the man, but as she speaks in a slightly accented Kantonian the man seems to become immediately confused and concerned.

:{ Echo note: I have run the offending phrase through my poryphone translation technology!! Approximate translation follows!! ["What the fuck is your problem?"] :3c }:

Amy, who had been just sort of watching confused through the car window up and until that point, immediately opens the door and in their haste to intervene falls directly into the snow. They scramble back to their feet and over to the pair, and while their speech is muffled through the car door it's clear that they are profusely apologizing in a heavily accented Kantonian. Luckily the poor bystander seems more confused than angry, and after a few minutes of talking the two professors head back to the vehicle. They sit in silence for a moment, Amy trying to brush the snow off themselves, before Casi speaks up.

Casi: ...So I take it I misspoke?

Amy: Is that what you're calling it? Casi where did you learn that??

Casi: Don't worry about it. I was just saying hello!

Amy: That is not what you said at all! And what do you mean don't worry about it? Casi talking like that to people could get you killed-

Casi: Well it's a good thing I asked someone that I knew could speak the language to be here with me, isn't it?

Amy: I... Hm. Alright. Point taken. But don't ever do that again.

Casi: Yeah, ok I won't... So. Were we going the right way?

Amy: ...... We have to turn around...

Casi laughs just as the video ends.

I finally thought the meowth was calm, she was looking at me so sweetly and purring. Then she bit my hand. Disingenuous behavior.

[professor-amaryllis]

Let the girlie enjoy her metal wort case scenario she becomes a galarian Meowth actually now that I say it I remembered it galar sucks nvn

What? That's not how any of this works. What she is going to do is ruin her teeth.

[professor-amaryllis]

I feel ya, my pup is doing the exact same thing currently. 🤣 You're just gonna have to make two copies of every paper forever, if not more!

Hah, if only. In all seriousness the GES requires some paperwork to be kept as hard copies as well as digitized in the case of a server problem. I do however do much of my work n my laptop, but sometimes carrying around my entire laptop is a hassle when I can just have a few pages on a clipboard, especially when I know I will be on my feet.

I do hope that I can do something about the shredding. Unfortunately she has made it clear she has considerable skill opening the locks to my filing cabinets as well...

:{ Echo's Pokemon Spotlight: Slowgold }:

Name: Slowgold

Species: Salazzle; Lava tube subspecies. These pokemon live much of their lives in deep volcanic caves, their lighter warmer coloration helping them camouflage and absorb the natural warmth around them and their tough spiked hide protecting them from sharp obsidian protrusions.

Gender: Female

Nature: Relaxed

Ability: Corrosion

Capture Data: Caught February 13, 2023. Location: Alola; Rt 8. Original Registration ID: [Redacted].

Information: Slowgold was a wild capture, caught after she showed hostility upon being separated from another Salazzle that was meant to be removed from the wild. She was captured with another Salazzle(Quicksilver) and a similarly unusual Alolan meowth (Arlene). Since then her naturally laid back attitude has shown through, and she spends most of her days sunning in the GES's rooftop greenhouse.

:{ Echo's Pokemon Spotlight: Quicksilver }:

Name: Quicksilver

Species: Salazzle, Heavy Seviper lineage. Her size, color, and distinctive fangs are heavily influenced by her parentage, though in behavior and care requirements she is relatively standard for her species.

Gender: Female

Nature: Bold

Ability: Corrosion

Capture Data: Caught February 13, 2023. Location: Alola; Rt 8. Original Registration ID: [Redacted].

Information: Quicksilver was a wild capture after her bright colors caught the attention of some local trainers, she stood out sorely among the wild population. She's believed to be the result of a trainer's Seviper left to mingle among the wild pokemon of the area. She was captured with another Salazzle (Slowgold) and a similarly unusual Alolan meowth (Arlene). Since capture she's shown a proficiency in battle and an enjoyment of competition, and as such has earned a spot on the professor's usual battle team. However, despite her dual typing, the professor seems to prefer focusing on non-fire moves.

I want to put a credit here for Quicksilver's original design to @updates-from-po-town who made this really neat pair for a friend who passed them onto me, even if I haven't exactly been great at keeping up with these references in a timely manner ahaha. you can see their lovely art here!!
