Nearly Developed

Rin walked up and knocked on the door before entering the photography studio. She peeked her head in and looked around. "Hello?.. Toki?"

Aranea jumped around behind Rin "Anyone home?"

Tokimae's studio was huge and comfortable. With cream colored walls and beautiful pictures of her own work framed and displayed. Not only was this her studio but it was also her house. The living room was made to fit the meeting room. There was a table to the right of the entrance where Tokimae was on her laptop uploading pictures. Ethan stood up and ran to the door to greet the new visitors.
"Oh, hey Rin!" Tokimae said as she got up to go greet her friend. Ethan almost pounced onto Aranea out of excitement.

Rin smiled and let her and Aranea inside. "This place is awful nice." She looked around admiringly "My grandparents sent me to take pictures of me and my Pokemon. So we can send them to my parents."

Aranea jumped on top of Ethan's back and nuzzled his face into the scruff of the Manectric's neck happily.

"Oh, sounds perfect. I'd be happy to help you with that." Tokimae smiled. "What kind of background would you like? Would you like me to explain? Well, we could go outside; to have a forest or a field view. Or I could bring you to some of my plain colored back drops that you can choose from. I also have a green screen up stairs." Ethan shook because Aranea's action tickled him.

"Nothing too extravagant. Just a plain back drop. They wouldn't notice either way." Rin smiled and looked over to her Joltik "I must warn you though, not all of my Pokemon are like Aranea."

Tokimae could see that there must be an issue between Rin and her parents. She didn't even thinks she's met her parents. Only her grandparents; the thought of of her grandfather and Cin made her shiver then frown. "Oh, that's fine. And I'm excited to meet your other Pokemon." Tokimae smiled. "Right this way." Tokimae said as she walked over to a long hallway with three doors.

Rin stopped a moment to let out her Pokemon. Zeri instantly hugged Rin's leg. Momo scurried after Tokimae and jumped on her shoulder to greet her. Jadi stuck her nose up at everything and trotted to a corner by herself. Rin looked down nervously at her last Pokeball and decided to wait to let out the last one, at least not while there was breakables around. "Come on now" Rin called to each of them and tracked after Tokimae wobbling with Zeri on her leg still.

Tokimae giggled at the cute Pichu greeting her. "You're very cute." she said while he stayed on her shoulder. She loved her Ponyta. Shiny Pokemon fascinated her. The entered the first door on the left where there was a light pink back drop. The only thing in the room was a tripod, two chairs, a small table and the back drop. Tokimae always tired to keep as little as possible in the room so Pokemon couldn't make a mess, or break any of her expensive equipment... "Okay. So, would you like to sit or stand?" She asked.

"I'd much rather sit, It's not a short walk here" She chuckled and walked over to observe the room. Momo nuzzled it's nose against Toki's cheek before hopping down to walk to the back drop. Jadi pushed past all the others to sit on the ground reluctantly in front of the drop as well. Rin shook her leg to get Zeri to go over to where the other's were as well. Rin picked up a chair that Aranea was trying to push by himself and placed it in the middle of the Pokemon. Rin placed Aranea in her lap and grabbed her last Pokeball. "This ones a little different and can be a bad influence" She mumbled and let out Notch.

Tokimae grabbed her camera out of her bag and placed it onto the tripod. "Okay. How many pictures before we start." She asked as she saw the shiny Shinx escape from his Pokeball. She smiled.

Notch's eyes widened at the camera and he lunged. Rin grabbed Notch mid-pounce and set him down next to Momo. "Just three" She said sounding a bit nervous looking over to see Notch rolling on his back.

Tokimae flinched clenching her camera. "Okay, the price for a photograph which gets your own choice of framing and edits is 5$ each." She stared at the Shinx. "Perhaps this will help him calm down a bit..." Tokimae called Ethan into the room. "I promise your Shinx will be fine. Ethan is just going to stun him so he stays still in one position. Is it alright that he does this?" Tokimae asked for permission. "We've had this happen before."

Rin sighed of relief "Yes that would be more than okay. He wouldn't sit still on his own if his life depended on it."

Notch tilted his head at Ethan and mewed a little. He pawed over and sniffed him and did a few circles around his legs.

Tokimae gave a crooked smile. "Ethan, Thunder wave on Shinx." Tokimae comanded. (ooc: I don't even think i gave thunder wave to him. but it's fine xD) A wave of electricity came from Ethan's body and went onto Notch. Notch froze in a sitting position with a slight smile. "Perfect." Rin smiled and Tokimae snapped six pictures. "I take double of what the offer was. In-case someone blinked." Tokimae giggled. Tokimae sent Ethan to grab a Paralyze heal from her room. He ran out the door. "Alright, follow me and we can take a look at these pictures."

Rin stood and nodded at her team to follow. Aranea and Zeri stayed by her side. Momo ran ahead and sat on Tokimae's shoulder again. Jadi snatched up Notch by the scruff of his neck and trotted after everyone. "This was very nice of you to do without an appointment, Toki~"

"It's no problem at all. Today's one of my days off actually." She grinned at Rin while sitting down at a table in the meeting room. Placing the SD card from her camera into her computer to extract the photos. Ethan ran downstairs with the Paralyze Heal and went over to give it to Rin, closing his eyes and tilting his head to smile with the bottle in his mouth.
"Good boy Ethan!" Tokimae praised him. "Okay. We are set. Now I'm going to have you take a look at these pictures and drag the three you like the most. Then tell me if you want some edited or not." She said looking at Momo, patting him on the head.

"Oh wow, I'm sorry to disturb you on a day off, Toki." Rin shuffled over to the computer and pointed to the three she liked best, being super careful not to touch the screen, and smiled at Toki.

"It's fine, you're like one of my best friends." She smiled and selected the photos. Ethan, still waiting for Rin to take the paralyze heal.

"Oh my" Rin gasped "I'm sorry, Ethan, I-I didn't notice you"

Rin took the Parylyze Heal and nodded at the Pokemon. She turned to Notch and shook her head extending the spray towards him. Notch slowly regained motion capability and instantly scowled at Rin.

Ethan didn't mind and smiled. "Alright, they're all done." Tokimae said walking over to her printer.

Rin bent over and patted Ethan on the head, then followed to the printer.
"Thank you so much for this, Toki~" She rocked on her feet happily "I will come visit you more often"

"Good, glad you like it." She smiled handing them over. "Same here. So erm, did you wanna pay with cash or credit? "
