Current Party: N/A
Ships. The one he was riding to the rock must been, what? The third he'd been on in his life? The only other times he had been on a ship was when his family went to Kalos for a day. He had liked that trip, Kalos was a nice region. It had been the furthest he had been from his home until now, which wasn't really saying all that much. Jamie liked ships. They were calming to be on, better then planes, and he loved staring off of them even when they weren't all that far from land. He could just stand there and think, and he'd be happy for a while.
Of course he wasn't here to think, he was here to start his own journey. He stepped off the ship with purpose, hands in the pocket of his hoodie, and immediately started looking around for the lab. They were supposed to give out free Pokemon, he had heard, and it was pretty much impossible to catch one without having one already. He knew, he had tried. He still ached.
Just as he was grumbling at the thought of his previous mistakes, Jamie's eyes came across what appeared to be the lab. He walked over to it and pushed the door open, turning the handle with his hand and moving the door with his foot, before giving the place a quick look around, raising his sunglasses as he did so he could get a better view.
Leaving the sunglasses to balance on his forehead, the suspicious-looking teenager walked up to the front desk. "Hey." He said, making his voice go a little deeper then natural. "I hear you guys give out free Pokemon. Mind if I take one off your hands?" He asked, his eyes partially hidden under the darkness of his hoodie.

The quirky woman behind the desk eyed the young man as he walked in. Her eyes widened at his attire- surely some idiot wasn't going to try and rob the laboratory? They had enough Pokemon in here to win a war with Kanto, for Arceus's sake. Of course, that wasn't something you ever said aloud. Didn't want any actual wars to spark up.
The thick, dark-haired woman ran one hand through short, frizzy hair to distract him, and one finger hovered beneath the desk over the panic button in case this little dude pulled out some sort of firearm. Maybe if he took off some of those layers and threw out those glasses, he wouldn't look so... suspicious.
When he spoke, relief spread through her body. He was just another brooding young man who wanted a Pokemon. Arceus, there had been a lot of those lately. She flashed crooked teeth at him, heaving a sigh before speaking. "You've come to the right place!" Her southern drawl was thick. "Gimme just a second, sir." She added the sir just in case he changed his mind about now blowing up the joint.
Swiveling in her chair, she typed furiously for a few moments before nodding and placing one index finger on the screen. "Here are your choices! My goodness, you've certainly done better than most..."

Jamie looked at the screen in thought, not really acknowledging the woman properly. He could tell that she was unnerved by him a little, but that didn't matter in the slightest. He doubted he would ever see her again after he got his Pokemon. Which he was thankful for, really, it meant that less people would know he had to be gifted a Pokemon. He would've so much liked to have been able to catch one himself...
His considered his choices. Two went out of the window immediately, the Cherubi and Rattata. They seemed too weak, unbefitting for him if he wanted to prove his strength to others... Unless if he trained them to the point where they were very strong, that might make them see his skill as a trainer more. Hm. No, that idea didn't work out. Those were not his choices.
He looked at the Exeggcute, his eyes narrowing. He didn't like the look of that Pokemon. It didn't sit him right, especially with how half the eggs seemed cracked or even broken. He wouldn't feel comfortable ordering it around, and that would hinder him. No. His choices were between the Eevee and the Spheal.
They both had potential. Eevee was varied in what it could become, it could fit into his team regardless of what he caught later on. He knew that Spheal also eventually become good Pokemon, if he recalled correctly from what he had looked up. Walrein, wasn't it? But which was best...?
He stood there for about a minute before deciding. Eevee could become a lot of things, there was a higher chance for it to useful later on. It was the smarter decision. "The Eevee." He said. "I'll take the Eevee."

[blockquotes]The woman knew his answer before he even spoke. Of course it would be the Eevee! After all, it was the cutest, and the most popular. Plus, that little pup could literally become alomost any type at any time, as long as you have the right stone. She smiled brightly when he spoke, proud of herself for being right. Hey, maybe she was finally developing supernatural powers after years of training and rituals. Uh, I mean, wow, what a coincidence! She nodded, frizzy curls bouncing around her shoulders. "Yup, just as I thought! Why don't you gimme a second sweetie? I'm working this shift alone so I've gotta do it aaaaaall myself." She stood, astoundingly tall for a woman, before exiting through double doors in the back that swung open, revealing rows and rows of shelves filled with a variety of different things before closing behind her. Several minutes passed and the woman returned with a Pokeball in one hand and a bag in the other. "Here you go, hun. Everything you need is in the bag, and the bag is complimentary." She winked as she laid the bag out on the counter, and slid the Pokeball to him. "Now, ya got any final questions 'for I let you hit the road?"

Jamie really disliked this woman's voice, he realized. Something about it annoyed him, and he couldn't stand it for another moment. Ugh. He watched her stand up and go to the back, obviously to collect his new Eevee. He saw the shelves briefly, and wondered for a moment if they had any trouble with theives. They literally advertised the fact that they had tonnes of Pokemon, and it was a lab as well. If someone was feeling ambitious they would hit this place as soon as they got word. Granted, the place probably had a lot of security...
He cringed when the women called him 'hun', looking at the bag and the Pokeball for a moment. He picked the ball up and examined it before putting it in his hoodie pocket, then he placed the bag straight into his backpack. There was a lot of space for now, and if he needed to move stuff around to fit other things in he could do that later. No point in fussing about with that now.
"No questions, no." He said, turning around and heading away without even a wave goodbye. He opened the door much the same way he did when he entered, and simply walked out. No point in superficial words or notions such greetings and farewells. He had stuff to do, after all. And he was sure the annoying woman had her own things to focus on herself.
