[my_father_is_a_tycoon]

[Lenna feels bad about not being able to go to Caldera with everyone else, having wanted to join the diplomatic effort.  Unfortunately, with her father missing, she's the only one carrying the Tycoon name at the moment, and she learned her lesson before about wading into a dangerous situation unprepared.  Still, though, there's no reason she can't welcome Union's new friends.]

Hello, everyone.  This is Lenna Charlotte Tycoon speaking.  Congratulations to everyone who was a part of the recent negotiations between our city, Caldera, and the Gigas army.  I'm afraid my own... circumstances [there is a small momentary frown here] left me unable to assist, but it was a relief to hear that everything went well.  To any Calderans who may be listening, welcome to our city.  As a representative of the Tycoon family, I'll do my best in my father's stead to see to it that you all receive proper treatment and attention as you wait to return home.

[She smiles warmly into the camera, pausing to nod for a moment.]

It's unfortunate that the first test of the newly expanded warp signal had to take place during such a grave state of affairs, but it's good that we were able to use it to help out our new neighbors.  But now that the war is over, has anyone thought of organizing an adventuring party to explore the new boundaries of the signal?  I'm especially interested in seeing what lies over the eastern mountains, and while I am not yet skilled enough to make the trip on my own, there is strength in numbers.

[A Dratini appears from off screen at this point, curling itself around Lenna and cooing softly.  At the same time, a Hoppip floats directly in front of the screen, wanting to see what's going on.  Lenna giggles a little before gently pushing it to the side.]

It seems my Pokemon are eager, too.  Please let us know if you'd like to team up, and thank you.

((OOC: New character here!  Her CR meme plotting comment is over here for reference if anyone wants to come in already knowing about her.))

✓ Memoir 2 // action

[hawkethat]

Hawke's been plenty busy these past weeks helping refugees and running errands for people; he's finally getting used to the city, and becoming familiar with it, as well.

It's not unusual to see him walking to and fro trailed by a pack of puppy Pokémon. The Houndour sticks to his side like a second shadow, but the Lillipup, Vulpix, and Growlithe all have a tendency to trail behind from time to time when an interesting person or Pokémon catches their attention.

Lillipup will busily investigate anyone sitting on a bench or at an outdoor cafe table, sniffing efficiently to determine if there might be any forthcoming treats.

Vulpix is mostly attracted to people or Pokémon that appear to be alone. She herself doesn't like to be alone, so when she notices that condition in others, she makes an effort to change it.

Growlithe likes to join groups, especially if it looks like a game is going on. If you're training with your pokemon, don't be too surprised if you suddenly find yourself with an addition!

Hawke is pretty good about noticing the straggler and doubling back to collect, but sometimes it takes a few minutes. Plenty of time to make a new friend!

[ooc: If you'd rather talk to Hawke directly instead of engaging one of his puppies, feel free to start a new thread!]

[The swamps. It's humid, sticky and gross. Lux's hair is balled up on her head, with a few silvery blond tendrils hanging free. She looks a bit dirty, and looks at the camera with an exhausted expression. She wipes her brow before she starts talking.]

I have a question, hopefully someone here can answer.

[She reaches off the camera, straining a bit with a bucket, before setting it down with a splash and a clunk. Grabbing a fishing line with both hands, she slowly pulls up the world's ugliest fish, which blubbs a few times, hardly fighting. In fact, it appears to be staring straight at the blond, longing in its giant, beady eyes.

Is it infatuated with her?]

This kept coming up on my line. I have no idea what it is, can someone tell me?

[A deadpan voice from off-screen.]

Can we eat the damn thing already? I'm getting hungry.

[Ezreal noooooo. Feebas is gonna cry ;A;]
