dusting off an older but much loved muse!

[landsharkchamp]

I almost thought you'd forgotten about me. We have work to do, mun!

[champ_coordinator]

Ah, Cynthia! [He smiled as he greeted her.]

How are you?

[landsharkchamp]

Charming as always, Wallace.

[[She will return that smile, then!]]

I'm quite well! Yourself?

[champ_coordinator]

I am well, thank you. I am hoping to be entered into Vatheon soon. It's a comm which others are entering into. Steven and Dawn among the people going to be there. Sounds lots of fun.

[landsharkchamp]

'Vantheon'?

[[Thinking pose is go!]]

Ah, that would be one of those 'games', then! I've never been in an official one, but my mun did have me at a 'dressing room' for...my goodness, a few years. How time flies when you're having fun!

[champ_coordinator]

I think it's called Vatheon. An underwater game. I've never been in a game before so it sounds like fun.

Of course, in the meantime I'll be judging at the Wallace Cup.

[landsharkchamp]

Well, if there's water involved I know you'll flourish, Wallace! Do tell me how it goes; I'm sure my Milotic would appreciate a place like that. Although I do have five other Pokemon to think about, so maybe I'm getting a little ahead of myself!

It sounds like you're keeping busy, then. The best way to be!

[[Except when you're being slack and doing things like. not cleaning your house.

not that she'd ever do that, of course....]]

[champ_coordinator]

Oh Milotec would love it. It loves water as do I. We should do for a drink sometime, Cynthia. I am visiting Sinnoh in the next couple of days.

[landsharkchamp]

I think that sounds like a plan. But only if you don't insist on paying.

[champ_coordinator]

Oh, but I couldn't let you pay. Besides, it is my offer so I will be pleased to pay.

[landsharkchamp]

Aren't you a gentleman! Maybe I'll let you think that, then. We'll see how it goes when the bill has to be paid.

[champ_coordinator]

I try. [He did a little bow.]

I'll try to stop you if you get your purse out.

[littleblue_penguin]

Pip-lup? [Woah, was that the Champion?]

[landsharkchamp]

[[It just might have been! Come say hi?]]

[littleblue_penguin]

Pip? [He's lost his trainer and you look like you can help. Please?]

[landsharkchamp]

[[Of course she can! Let her kneel down so she's not quite so tall.]]

Hello there, sweetheart!

[littleblue_penguin]

[He has been looking for Dawn for a long time now and he's hungry and rather sad.]

Pip-lup...

[landsharkchamp]

Hmmm....

[[Hungry, you say? Would a berry help?]]

Is everything okay?

[littleblue_penguin]

Lup? [He nodded and became a little happier.]

Pip-lup Pip pip-lup. [He tried to say he'd lost his trainer.]

[giveme_yourmeteors]

Well, well. Look who it is.

[landsharkchamp]

Cyrus.

[[It's serious business time.]]

Always a pleasure.

[giveme_yourmeteors]

As always, Cynthia. How have you been keeping?

[landsharkchamp]

Well enough. I take it the same applies for you?

[giveme_yourmeteors]

Good enough. [As long as you don't try to stop me.]

[landsharkchamp]

[[Oh come now, that's like asking water not to be wet! Or ice-cream not to be delicious!]]

If I didn't know better, I'd say you were genuinely concerned about my welfare.

[giveme_yourmeteors]

Concerned? Why would you think that?

[landsharkchamp]

Well, you did ask me how I've been.

[giveme_yourmeteors]

I'm being civil if that's what you mean. [Hmph. What did she care?]

[landsharkchamp]

Then I'm flattered you find me worthy of your civility, Cyrus. I still think you're wrong, but at least you're polite about it.

[giveme_yourmeteors]

How touching. [You're the one who's wrong, Cynthia.]

What's it like being Champion?

[lovesrocks]

My favorite person from Sinnoh.

How are you, Cynthia?

[landsharkchamp]

Steven, you charmer; I'm quite all right! How are things in your neck of the woods?

[lovesrocks]

Oh, Cynthia, I wasn't even trying to be that charming. Has it really been that long?

Just as you'd expect. Wallace is the champion of Hoenn, and I still can't lose the paparazzi. Even though Wallace enjoys the spotlight so much more than I do. I guess that's what I get for publicly agreeing to participate in the World Tournament being hosted in Unova.

[snowpointvictor]

[Now Zoey normally is not easily flustered, but this was Cynthia the Champion.]

Miss Cynthia? Um, hello.

[landsharkchamp]

[[Cynthia doesn't know this girl, but she seems nice enough!]]

Hello there, sweetheart; what can I do for you?
