[color=#d3381c]"Sure thing, Reiji."[/color] Claire chuckled, grinning somewhat impishly, intending to tease him just a bit. [color=#d3381c]"Someone who runs wouldn't be out of breath from a little jog like that."[/color] Of course, before she could say much else, he started speaking to everyone else present. Kinda rude, to do that in the middle of a conversation, but eh. With Erika speaking to the smaller looking...girl. She was gonna say it was a girl because she'd be cuter if she was a she. With the conversations directed towards her dying down, she didn't have much to say herself at the moment, though striking up a conversation would sorely help with her impatience. As she scanned those gathered, no one looked particularly fun, save for that girl dressed in black. And then she saw a man standing some distance away dressed rather [i]fabulously[/i]. She knew fabulous when she saw it. She had the same sort of clothes made for when she inevitably participated in a contest. He was a bit of a ways off to be sure, but it was hard for someone like her to miss someone so...uniquely dressed. As curious as she was though, he was standing a looong way off. And she was already positioned conveniently next to the door. Her head swiveled from him, to the door, back to him, and then back to the door. ...grrrah. She remained firmly rooted in her spot, deciding to let her curiosity go for now. Ain't nothing was gonna stop her from getting a pokemon here. Instead, she turned back towards Erika and the girl she was talking too. Close enough to the door for her to still leap inside of the lab as soon as those doors opened. The redhead wasn't particularly interested in conversing with a ton of people, so she settled on perhaps getting to know Erika a bit better. She seemed friendly enough. Besides, this 'Ren' person looked liked they'd be fun to [s]bother[/s] talk with! She was also conveniently close enough to speak to without her having to move from her spot by the door. She didn't catch much of their conversation, but it didn't matter much to Claire. She was gonna interject anyways. She turned her head to Ren as she asked for Erika's name. [color=#d3381c]"Hey, Ren!"[/color] She chimed in, giving her a grin. [color=#d3381c]"The names Claire! And can I just say that you look fabulous? In a 'I'm a spooky scary ghost' sort of way?"[/color] It was true - while it wasn't something she'd wear or ever be caught it, the hooded outfit had its merits.
