OOC: Whoa, I'm a bit late. Ah well...

"Come on..." Yikari muttered, feverishly twisting the key in the lock of room 303 which was stubbornly denying him entry.
"Vulpi" Spark the Vulpix said with a slight chuckle, observing his trainer's motions with amusement. "Vul-pix."
It took a while for Yikari to get the message: "It turns the other way?" he asked, feeling slightly embarassed.
"Vul-"
"I knew that" the boy muttered, blushing slightly as he turned the key counter-clockwise and the lock efortlessly opened with a small 'click' "I was just checking to see if you knew."
"Vuul-" Spark replied sceptically, rolling his eyes.
"Come on, let's take a look inside." Yikari pushed the door open, revealing a fairly large, spottlessly clean room which was definitely made for two. There were two beds, two dressers, two nightstands, even too TVs.
Not bad. Yikari thought for himself, tossing his heavy bag carelessly into a corner of the room and semi-carefuly spreading a set of bedclothes and a lumpy pillow from his bag onto the nearest bed before stretching out on it. And with a little luck I won't have to share. The last conception was quickly erased however, as Spark leapt onto the other bed with a delighted squeal.
"Fine then." Yikari said, feeling no inclination to shoo the little fox away. "But you're explaining this to my room mate if I get one, and don't even think that I'll put that in order for you."
"Pix." Spark replied dissmissively, as he jumped back on the floor and started exploring the room. The little Vulpix was full of pent-up energy after the long hours of idle waiting they both had been forced to endure on the train trip here. The same couldn't be said for Yikari however, as Spark had woken him up at an inhuman hour in order to respond to what one might refer to as a 'call of nature'. Lying idle, Yikari suddenly became panifully aware of just how sweaty his clothes were. His seat had been by the window, and under the full glare of the sun. Tired or no, he needed a shower, and a change of clothes.
"Try not to wreck the place while I'm gone, alright?" Yikari said, closing and locking the door from the inside before entering the bathroom with a towel from his bag hanging over his shoulder, leaving the hyperactive fire Pok?mon to its own devices. With tender care, Yikari removed his blue bandana and placed it on the edge of the sink, his hair celebrating its newfound freedom by falling over Yikari's eyes. Without further ado, he shedded the rest of his clothes into a haphazard pile and stepped into the shower.
A few minutes later a still significantly wet, but considerably more sanitary, Yikari stepped out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist, carrying the stack of discared clothing in one hand and holding up his towel and his cherished bandana with the other.
"Vuul!" Spark exclaimed happily, half ready to leap at his trainer until he noticed the water. "Vu-uu-u-ul!"
"I was only gone for a few minutes..." Yikari muttered, unceremoniously dumping the pile onto the floor and rummaging the huge bag in search of a fresh set. Spark was a very social pok?mon that required lots of attention and got worried the minute it was left alone. Ought to get another one to keep him company Yikari thought for himself as he put on fresh underwear and a pair of worn, originally dark blue, jeans which his mother hadn't found while discarding nearly all of Yikari's most cherished pieces of clothing, arguments like 'But it's a good year' hadn't helped the matter either, mothers just didn't understand some things.
Feeling too lazy to put on full atire, Yikari settled for a simple, orange T-Shirt before putting his, somewhat cleaned, bandana back on.
"Come on." he said, calling Spark. "Let's go poke around a bit.
With that, Yikari opened the lock on his door and entered the corridor, Vulpix in tow.
