Ok finished it.

sure but let me finish up this joint post between Vince and Calnith I've been working on.

That actually sounds like a good idea!

:P You posted on your own profile again. XD

And what I came here to tell you was that you should take a look at Thyme's little meltdown. XD It's kind of sad, really.

"Whatever!" Brogan sang back over her shoulder, not even bothering to look at Skye as she headed off. She had heard his words. But, as strange as some would find it, they didn't register on any level in her mind. Literally in one ear then out the other. Ultimately? She just didn't care, what Skye, or her Father, or anybody thought of her. Her future was set, she was going to have as much power as she could ever need, she would never want for anything. Her Father would never cut her out of that, even if she committed murder or an equally heinous act - not that she ever would, but just to illustrate the point.

Shaking her head, she smiled at people as she passed, looking for one person in particular who could prove useful to her.

Skye smiled sadly, watching her go. You poor, stupid child. "I-hi geh-guess weh-we agree oh-hon one thuh-hing," he commented casually. "Weh-he duh-don't uh-hunderstah-hand each other." He shook his head. "I hah-have suh-some things you duh-don't. Freh-Freedom. Ah-hand respect. Yuh-hour fah-hather luh-loves you buh-hut you've dih-dih-disappointed him hah-haven't you?" And you shouldn't call me naive for trying to understand something I haven't grown up with you insolent brat.

"Thuh-hank you ah-again sir," Skye said to the man as he left, pointedly ignoring the glaring in his direction. He had seen the faint displeasure the man had displayed at the sight of his daughter interrupting. Skye supposed that was common for someone like her.

Seeing her fury, Skye frowned slightly. He really didn't understand what he had done this time. To be fair, he had instigated their whole mutual dislike of each other, but he had pretty much left her alone afterward. She could hold a grudge couldn't she? Wait, oh wait she had threatened him. Despite himself, the boy started laughing. That was pathetic, truly. He had almost nothing she could hold leverage on him over and anything she could was protected by two people that she had no chance of convincing, ever. Why was she even saying this anyway? "Ah-Are you jealous of muh-me?" he asked honestly, genuinely curious as the laughter faded. "Thah-hat's aw-awfully chih-hildish, sih-since heh-he gah-gave me theh-he offer. Huh-How would thah-hat affect yuh-you?"

Rama looked like he was about to rip off the girl's dress. Skye whistled softly, the Zorua relaxing a little. "I duh-don't like you beh-hecause yuh-you're fake. And I wuh-wouldn't threh-threaten you uh-over this ih-hin yuh-your position. Yuh-You're nuh-hot a good eh-example for the Huh-HoTa company..." Skye trailed off and waited. She was rather pathetic to be quite honest.

:3: :7:

No, I just wanted to use the Eevee. :D To do this, click 'Go Advanced' then click on the Smilie icon. Then you just pick the one you want. :D

... XD Of course I am. :D It's funny. :7: Have an Eevee head. :P

:P You posted that on your own page.

Skye thought about it. This man was almost the most powerful, if not the most powerful in the business world. He would have a tremendous advantage with this man's help. Contrary to popular belief, there was an unspoken competition for what young minds were going to develop the new Pokedex. The current models were useful of course, but it was more stumbling of old ground. The new ones and their upgrades were more useful than people would ever think, and it took quite a bit of brains to work on it alongside the professors. Also, not only would it be an advantage there, it would also help him understand aspects of the process he was well aware he didn't know.

To be honest, the man's praise had flown right over his head. He avoided compliments habitually, having heard way too many about his brother to consciously filter anymore. Skye knew the dangers, one of them being the man's daughter as a thorn and his schoolwork dropping possibly. Oh well. Battling was something he enjoyed, something he was decent at, but he would probably never be Cam nor wanted to be. He would learn all he could of course. That was just his style. Raising his head toward Mr.Houghton-Taylor, he smiled brightly. "I wuh-would luh-hike that veh-very much sih-sir."

Skye was vaguely aware someone was coming closer, not that it was Brogan. Rama had begun to snarl softly, and Pala let out a confused cry. Ellie silently twitched her ears and ignored the snobbish girl, Soothe Bell still chiming around her neck. She was not worth the trouble.

XD I see, but it's not going to change what Thyme does. XD

True, but it isn't for her. XD

XD I see that. :D

Well, if he winds her up too much, he'll have a demon to contend with. She has quite a temper. XD

Ah... Jub. He's doing such a fine job of ruining Thyme's evening. XD

"Thuh-Thank you suh-sir," Skye said honestly. He remembered all the issues that had come from the past Pokedex. The first two had been simple, but as time passed, they had all needed upgrades. The upgrades needed more before the year was out. It was quite a long task. "I huh-had tuh-ho Stuh-start already," he admitted, clutching at the strap of his bag, which he refused to leave behind. "You weh-were a guh-good example fuh-hor me."

Rama was quiet even as Pala squeaked happily on his back. Ellie purred at the older man, meowing politely at him. Skye suddenly heard te rest of the man's words and flushed in surprise. "I-i'd beh-be veh-veh-very grateful," he managed. "Thuh-thank you suh-so much!"

Skye smiled faintly. "Cah-ham can't suh-save from a pih-piggy bank," he said honestly, which was sadly true. Cam was terrible with almost everything to do with figures. "Buh-hut I'll reh-reh-remind him." Skye thought for a moment, debating how to answer the man's question. He supposed it wasn't going to get him in trouble for saying so. "I-hi will be Wuh-horking on the Nuh-new Pokedex ah-ah-and then going tuh-to the Ranger Uh-Academy." he knew by the time his research was done his Pokemon would probably be very tired of running around. "I-hi want to Beh-be a ranger wih-with a the-team.

Skye smiled a bit now, reaching out to shake the man's hand. "NUh-hice to fuh-finally meh-meet yuh-hou. Cah-ham ih-his ruh-rah-ther com-com-complimentary of you." He examined him, examined the power. His pendant was quiet behind his dress shirt, easing his tension. Honestly, the thing about Cam was a lie. Cameron gave the man grudging respect, little else. Skye paused a moment to think of something to add as he took a quiet breath. "Yuh-hou are quh-hite a guh-good eh-hex-ample for oh-hordinary people."

Skye looked around for the drinks, feeling the agitation rolling off of Ciel. "Stuh-hay here a muh-hinute whuh-hile I go geh-get some leh-hemonade." He walked off quickly toward the refreshments, trying to dodge people. He reached the table and bumped into a tall man with mineral water. "Uh-su-horry," he squeaked out, stepping back. He paled a little, recognizing the man in front of him.

"Suh-Sorry!" he exclaimed again, looking concerned. He hadn't felt the hit but he hoped he hadn't hurt Mr. Houghton-Taylor. Rama padded up at this point and growled a little before Ellie shushed him from Skye's shoulder, staring up at the man with a vague curiosity.

It's all Thyme and Mark's fault. XD And Brian, for being clueless and revealing too much. XD

XD Seems like Bri is always the little brother. And I think everyone hates Calnith. I actually want to have him and Quin meet. That would be crazy. :D

Yup. Seems to have. XD Poor Bri. He's got a stalker now. XD
