"Marcus De Luca..." The way she said it was almost like she wanted to remember it. She nodded to herself. A couple of taps later, she checked him in and nodded. "All right, you're all set! Would you like a map? Even though this is the Sigford's private mansion, there are many different recreational sites, such as a library, gym, the... The pool-" *Get it together!* She ducked down and brought him a map anyway. "The back side has the town map and a list of places around here!" 

Hop, oh Hop. All of this just went over his head as he tried to reproduce the vaguely egg shaped Pokemon on his paper. He doodled a few extra things on the side too. It was a bit better than before; he'd managed to make the lines less jagged. "How's it looking so far?" He asked the Pokemon, then held it up.
Joan
"Thank you very much, ma'am! I would appreciate a map. I didn't quite catch your name." *Marcus accepts and folds the map.*
Janet
*Omelette flashes a big ol' thumbs up, and a small grin.*
Joan
"And which of these locations do you recommend?"

*The indigo league champion looks back down to the woman behind the desk with an inquisitive look. His eyebrows raise slightly—well, his right one does. His left one behind his eyepatch seem to be mostly slashed off. His mouth crinkles slightly into a grin, exposing sharpened teeth.*
Rae
"Yes!! I'll color it when I can get to the rest of my things! You should see how many I have! You see, I organize them by type and size, and I also-" He just kept *Talking* Away. It was a wonder how his lungs could hold so much air. 

Her name? She... Didn't think he'd ask her that! Of course she wasn't forgetting her own name, was she? She took a quick glance up to him. Oh no, he was *Smiling!* She then looked back down and another map out. "It's not too important—but my name is Hana." She tucked a lock of wavy hair behind her ear, then opened the map. "The theatre always has something nice, and the cafe always has fresh food. B-but, for quieter places, there's a hot spring up in the forest." She tenderly pointed to it on the map. "Is there anything else, you'd like to know, Mr. De Luca?"
Janet
*Omelette actually looks quite interested, still listening to Hop go on.*
Joan
"No, that is quite alright. Thank you very much, Hana. I appreciate it." *Marcus flashes a pair of thumbs up, both of which are marred with scars spanning his hands and arms.* "I'll see you soon." *Marcus turns to Hop with a smile.* "Hop, how do you feel about grabbing a bite to eat?"
Rae
"So yeah!! That one time I tried to document Tympole, it was great until this BIG Seimitoad came in and—" There really was no end to it, was it? 

Hana nodded and folded up the map. She kept it to the side and smiled. She stared back at the man this time, but focused not on his face but his hands and arms. What kind of things did this man go through? She couldn't help but stare for a moment as she tried to come up with a backstory in her mind. "All right, no problem!" Wait... What?! 

"Food sounds great!! There's a place here that has *Amazing* Mac cheese!! But I'm up for going anywhere!" He responded eagerly. He bounced on his toes. "Where are we going?"
Joan
*Marcus noticed the stare. After his self improvement, he was a little used to it. It gave him a little boost of self confidence, something his old office-slave self desperately needed.* "Apparently, there's a cafe nearby that serves great food. Are you ready to go?" 

*After posing the question, he turned back to Hana... And winked.*
Rae
"I'm *Always* Ready!!" He did a little spin and dashed to the enormous doors. He was a little peckish since he lost his ice cream cone. "This time I won't get us lost, I promise!" 

Hana felt her heart skip a beat as she watched him turn back around. He wasn't *Supposed* To look back! Especially since she was taking the moment to get her staring on. She should be ashamed of herself; her cheeks were pink. She was caught! And yet, that was nothing compared to the red slapped on her face at that wink. She put a hand to her cheek and turned away. She twirled a strand of her hair. "Enjoy your time out!"
Joan
"Will do." *Marcus waves to Hana, following Hop at the same speed. Despite being much older, seems he still has the same spring in his step as the youth does.*
"I'll drop by later."
Janet
Omelette swoops into the air, and lands on Marcus' head.
Mark
``` I believe this area is over with, as Hop and Marcus have moved on to```
Joan
*Marcus ushers Hop into the building first. Y'know, he likes making sure his friends are safe. And with Hop's speed, he could hurt himself.*
