Content with hugging her new BFF, Evelyn took a brief moment to let her eyes wander. Specifically, to scan over and observe the others who were present. To be entirely honest, she hadn't paid much attention to any of them over in the lobby, other for Prince Valerian, of course.
... oh, and the neanderthal woman who'd for some unknown, undeterminable and completely unprovoked reason, had come over to her when they were about to leave the Professor's lab, and decided to spout some garbled gobbledigook at her, afterwhich she proceeded to put Evelyn's delicate hand into what was, essentially, a human vice.
They say you the problem with first impressions is that you only get one. True enough, Evelyn's opinion of this ginger-haired girl with the speech-impedement who kept grinning like a loon while crushing peoples' hands, wasn't exactly favorable, to put it mildly.
But the blonde quickly shook the unpleasant experience from her mind, and took note instead of the others. There was the muscly boy who had an Abra, the boring-looking who'd gotten a lot of attention for doing martial arts and phys ed. while waiting - he'd apaprently gotten some kind of... Rare pokémon, which he was noq questioning the Professor about. There was the scruffy-looking boy with an equally scruffy-looking... Horse... Donkey... Equine-pokemon. There were also the girls, like the late arriver who'd gotten some kind of... Bipedal lizard-pokemon...? It looked... Hard... Not exactly the kind of creature you'd wanna hug or pet, but she seemed happy enough with it. There was also the aforementioned red-head-of-doom, who'd gotten... A candle... Yup. Probably some kind of ghost or dark type... Maybe... Oh, and some girl with a weird-looking... Hat? Beanie? What was that? Did this one know nothing of what was in vogue right now!? Anyway, she got some kind of dark-furred... Fox... Thing... It looked... Cute. But a also like it could cause mischief... She didn't know why, but Evelyn didn't fully trust that thing.
Then there was, of course, Prince Valerian, who... For whatever reason, didn't seem overly pleased with his new partner. Evelyn couldn't fathom why. The pink little buzzy-thing was absolutely adorable and would amek your Pokégram page blow up and go viral if you posted pics of it and yourself having a good time. But, he
was the prince after all, so he'd probably wanted something a bit more... Regal-looking... At least, so she imagined.
There were others of course, but honestly, Evelyn's attention could no longer be spent on them. Instead, she sat her Joltik down on the ground again, the little critter happily scuttling about her legs, chirping and chittering in an excoted fashion. It was quite endearing.
But, then came the voice. A voice of another girl, who called out over the noise and voices and sounds, calling for...
"A ... Photo?"Evelyn's eyebrows rose, and her face betrayed a hint of interest. Surely everyone had been far too busy with their
own new pokemoin to notice her... Erm... Momentary lapse in composure after releasing Joltik out of his ball... So, yes... Ahem, time to get her act together. Straightening up, brushing herself off - even though there was
nothing to brush off - and then adjusting her sidelocks, the glamorous gal listened to what, where and how the camera-wielder wanted people to move, stand and ... Y'know, all the instruction-y bits. Taking great pains to make sure she stood as far away as possible from the hand-mangler, Evelyn struck a g
glorious pose for the photo!
... Which she continued to hold... Unflinchingly... Not batting an eye... Perfect stillness.... Until the photo was taken. Joltik, on the other hand, was happy to still circle her legs, and sometimes try to climb them as well.
