[Behold the exhausted but freshly-scrubbed face of one Garrett Hawke, come to introduce himself to the network with a very important question (to him).]

Has anyone heard of a village named Rhododendron? No one at the Medical Center has heard of it, but they suggested I try asking on the network.

It's where I'm from, and I'd like to go back, but I'm not sure where it is from here. So any information at all would be great.

[He hesitates very briefly, then flashes a charming smile.]

Thanks.



[OOC: This guy's hometown is so far off the map no one will have heard of it, and it's also been completely destroyed, but he doesn't know that yet so he's still asking around. Feel free to yank his chain or crush his dreams or just be brutally honest, it's all good! o/]

[Hey, he wouldn't have volunteered if he didn't mean to see it through!]

Garrett Hawke. It's a pleasure.

[incousinswithyou]

[good. Michiru does not need bug spit in her perfect hair.

A nod.] And this is Lullaby - Lulu for short.

[the Budew wiggles happily, opening up her buds for a small wave.]

[hawkethat]

[He can just burn it out of his hair later, NBD.]

It's a pleasure to meet you too, Lulu.

[Oh man, he never realized how adorable Budew were before now. Look at her and her tiny little buds and her itty bitty little face!]

[incousinswithyou]

[we can't all be fire proof, okay.

Budew beams!] Bu! Buu, dew! [she bets you'll look awesome and pretty once you get those flowers! Maybe a crown? And then maybe you'll sparkle too! Her human(s) do that sometimes.

Despite her earlier concern over this usurpation of her authority regarding gratuitous make overs, Michiru glances rather fondly at her Pokemon. It wasn't until recently that Budew stopped being super wary of strangers. Encouraging this sort of socialization would be ideal, especially since Budew already likes you.]

Do tell me if you need any assistance. [if this hometown thing doesn't pan out. Or right now, if you're feeling bold.]

[hawkethat]

[Wow, excuse you, Budew, he is already awesome and pretty-looking! HTH!!

Budew gets another smile for that.]

With an eye as discerning as yours, I've no doubt I will.

[Michiru gets a smile, too!]

Thank you. I'll be sure to do that. [Later, though; he's gotta try some other things before calling on people for help that involves more than a little information.]

[incousinswithyou]

[But you can be even prettier!! D:

Aw, Budew made a friend!

Michiru automatically returns that smile.] Hopefully we'll meet under better circumstances, next time.

[Hawke gets one last wiggle of a wave from Budew before Michiru shuts off the feed.]
