"May I see your trainer license? Thank you~
Anyone else?"
A little glass cylinder rises around Kaddy's pokeball as it is inserted into the machine, accompanied by an animated digital timer and pixelated representation of the venipede herself popping up on a big screen overhead. However this process works, it doesn't look like it's going to take much more than about ten minutes.
The timer's shorter for Svava, presumably because she ended up significantly less battered.
Theo manages to lean on the counter close enough to the chattering nurse to overhear bits of the conversation but not to arouse suspicion.
"It took his trainer's license? That's... certainly pretty odd. Not to mention inconvenient."
"I know! Apparently it was pretty insistent too? I mean, the way he tells it, it shook out his jacket pockets and then only took that rather than anything shiny that was in there. I'm honestly not certain he didn't just lose it and come up with a poor excuse! It'll take about a month until he gets a replacement, either way."
"I hope it wasn't too expensive. And I'll have to find someone else to make the delivery too! I suppose I could just post the stuff but... those couriers just don't seem to understand the meaning of the word Fragile sometimes you know?"
"A headache all round really."
"Hmm..."
The small child and even smaller rabbit pokemon seem to be a lot more interested in each other than what the adults are talking about, taking turns to impersonate each other's actions. The girl lacks prehensile ears though, so has significant trouble duplicating the slightly bizarre sight of a rabbit rolling and unrolling its own at will like furry pistons.
By the time Nando, Caroline and Kid Jr. arrive, Svava is already fully healed and Kaddy's timer is nearing completion.
The poor pokeball shop boy nearly catches the eye of the man talking to the nurse and then stares at the floor in embarrassment. Noticing him, the little girl runs over and starts tugging on one leg of his shorts in search of attention.
(I'm going out on a limb and assuming Mirdini entered the pokemon centre to get his pokemon healed, I hope that doesn't seem out of line to you!)
