Long week. I need a break.

A good walk down th' street and around th' block a few times does wonders for Long Weeks. [And for catching Pokemon]

That would definitely help. And I have some Pokémon eggs to hatch.

Will you come with me?

Think I can arrange an escort.

Yeah? Good. You can see that my Pokémon are just as badass as I am.

Ooh. We might have t'find a gym an test dat out.

But not th' one anywhere near School. Things are gettin' vicious over there.

Nah. There are plenty in Manhattan we can battle.

Have you seen any actually fist fights or just a lot of swearing?

No fist fights. Yet. But you haven't seen Angry till you seen Julian Keller lose the gym t' Megan an her Jigglypuff.

[She grins at that as she pulls out her phone and boots up the app.] Maybe I will have to come visit and observe from afar.

Maybe we'll have t'hire you t'keep the peace around there.

[He holds his hand out, loading the app with the other]

Do you pay better than Alpha Flight?

[She smiles before taking his free hand with her own.]

Nope. Day job prolly does pay better...

Then I rather just stop by to visit the sometimes-sex ed teacher and watch the kids battle it out with Pokemon.

You're always welcome to come by.

Class is out by the Basketball court when th' weather is nice.

[She gives his hand a squeeze.] I will keep that in mind.

And how much class actually gets done when you're out by the basketball court?

Hey. You might be surprised what kids are willing t'ask questions 'bout when they don't see you like a real teacher.

What do they see you as? Just a cool dude?

Something like that? Hard t'say. They trust me tho. Bit more then most of the other adults.

Ah. So they see you as their cool uncle.

I assume that's a good thing.

Yeah, that's a good thing.

[She stops and lets out a yelp.] Bellsprout!

Better den all da Drowsee! [He gets his phone out to catch it]

Ugh. Anything is better than all of those. [It takes her a few Poke balls, but she catches the Bellsprout.]

Probably keeps da interest for when something New comes along. We get all excited.

I caught a Seel a few days ago and it was the Pokemon highlight of my week. Getting to see you is the overall highlight.

Better den a Pokemon? I'm flattered Chere.
