Tiger nodded "yeah I was off but I ended up helping Elm with an
injured Jolteon. He wasn't to hurt just a thorn in the pad" he said
kindly. He glanced at Mel and laughed "I never wanted a son at
eighteen come back in like five years or longer or whenever I'm
responsible enough." he said joking gently Though I need to get
Raikou to stop thinking that way. he thought to himself
sharply. "Hey Jamie and Robert...and random girl. Umm. Anyways
let's head back to my place so I can explain everything and feed
Raikou." He said kindly.
Both Robert and Jamie accepted Mira's hug with a chuckle before
waving at Mel. Ro chuckled at being called random girl before
waving her own greeting at the group.
"well I grow oran berries as well as sitrus berries. So he usually
eats some of those. He also eats a lot of Magikarp so I had to step
outside my comfort zone to feed him properly" Tiger explained with
a sigh. Cyndaquil looked over to Ro slightly and nodded in
agreement with Mira.
"I can help you with that. Keep in mind, I worked as a fisher
before I became a card artist," Mira pointed out. "I brought my rod
with me, too. I can show you some stuff."
Tiger nodded in response to Mira. "Nice to meet you, Ro. I'm Tiger"
he said kindly and looked over to Mira. "Anyway we should head back
to my place so I can explain before Raikou runs out again" he said
with a sigh.
Tiger walked back to his house and waved a greeting to the new
trainer from Elm's Lab. He then stopped at the door to his house
and opened it. Raikou was in the kitchen his paws on the counter.
He was trying to reach a pokepuff.
Tiger sighed and shook his head in amusement. He pushed the
pokepuff to Raikou and the legend hooked it up with his claws. He
then barked a thanks and ran off into the living room to eat it.
Tiger shook his head and put his bag on a hook by the door. "Raikou
loves pokepuffs especially the vanilla ones" he said in response to
Mira.
Mel couldn't resist a snort. "At least you know it's eating
habits." She pointed out with a grin. "Oh. I'm Mel. Nice to meet
you." She called over to Ro with a friendly wave. "And that's Riu."
She added, gesturing to the Lucario, who flicked his ears in
response.
Tiger sighed and grabbed the ribbon from his bag. He then walked
into the living room and sat down on the couch. He waited for the
others. "It's because Raikou is still a newly hatch" he explained
quietly and put the ribbon that marked a guardian on the coffee
table. Raikou looked up from his half eaten pokepuff.
Ro had chuckled slightly before the trio followed after Tiger.
Robert snickered slightly at Mira and was about to say something
before deciding against it and leaned against one of the walls with
Ro leaning on him while Jamie sat at their feet with Rose and
Glaceon.
"Tiger. What the hell is that." Mel asked dryly, staring at the
ribbon. It looked somewhat familiar, though she couldn't exactly
place what it was from. Maybe I've seen it somewhere? She
mused to herself, frowning at the ribbon. Riu flicked his ears and
remained silent.
