Sitting on the bench, Marcus tapped his foot a signaling Shinx to sit up straight. Flashing the poffin in his palm, Shinx's nose shot into the air with excitement. Marcus tossed the poffin into the air, Shinx following suit and jumping into the air catching the poffin while flipping over backwards. Landing the trick, Marcus rubbed Shinx's head in joyful approval, Shinx nudging against his hand as he chewed the poffin gleefully. Marcus looked around the dock, he glanced at the gathering group of fellow students waiting for the headmaster to arrive. Shinx began pawing at Marcus for more poffins, a begging look in his eyes. Reaching into his bag, Marcus pulled out a small food bowl from his back pack, filling it with his homemade special blend of pokefood. Shinx began chowing down, shaking it's tail with happiness, he feasted upon the contents of the bowl. [@Silverstein] Marcus turned his head, noticing another trainer and his growlithe hanging out not just a few yards away. The boy and the growlithe were both eating something, he couldn't quite tell what. Reaching into his backpack, he pulled out another container and walked over to the red haired boy, a small container in his hands. "Hello there, I'm Marcus." He said to the red haired boy "I saw you feeding your growlithe, and just thought I'd offer you some pokefood I made." Marcus said. He held out the container with a small fire emblem on the side. "I've been practicing at making it type favored, this one I attempted at making specifically for fire types."
