She makes her way into the cafe, hoping that it's still her day off and she hasn't missed a shift. She daintily shakes her paws off in the entryway before approaching the barista.
'Afternoon. Is Tiffany in today?
Her goal is to discuss what happened - Tiffany has become a friend of hers, (I- I think I have the name right there, lol) and she needs a de-stresser. May as well order a Koffee (Persim berry)

Turns out I have more time on my hands than I was expecting to, so it seems I have some time to talk about your latest catch right now.  Where do you want me to meet you?

Presumably, this would conveniently have Seddi making his way to the Koffee Shop with Akamu providing the directions to it.  Time for another chat about a crazy powerful pokemon, but also a surprise reunion with Sylvia maybe?

Besides, a coffee sounds like something he needs right about now, given what happened this morning.

"Sylvia! Where in good green Earth have you been? I tried calling you several times, but all I got were messages saying the number was not avaliable! *Pauses, leans down to squint her eyes at you* ...And why do you seem....different , somehow?"

You get a Koffee on the house - both as part of your staff benefits but also because your friend could see you needed a bit of a Pick me Up. 

[If you want to be around when Seddi and Akamu discuss/research that Big Gloomy Dragon + Weird Wobb , just mention it somewhere in your next post!]

She still needs to think about it a bit herself. She does, however, get across that her old phone is completely lost and she's working with the one Mishu gave her. New number, unfortunately, but she gives Tiffany that update so she's reachable again.

She'll be around when Seddi and Akamu arrive, yes. Though she's got one important question for Tiffany: I'm not certain of the passing of time throughout this - I've lost track of the date.

Numbers are exchanged once more and your boss leaves you to recuperate.

The time of date is Evening - whether its mid to late depends on whether Seddi/Akamu (Dragonstrike/Redstone) want it to occur. You'll be there first before either Akamu or Seddi get their, however, and they won't notice your presence until you want it Known.

Seddi enters the coffee shop and quickly scans the room for where Akamu is seated.  When asked what he'd like to order, it's a simple black coffee, no sugar.  He needs something with some kick after today's whirlwind of revelations and messages.

Seddi starts to get down to business, seeming to be in a more serious mood than usual.  "Alright, what'd ya catch this time, Akamu?  Somethin' interestin' I assume, if you're contactin' me about it.  We're both lucky I have so much time to analyze it this evening, to be frank." (This will be a Moderate Encounter)

@Pokekitty2

When an Espeon joins them at the table though, it takes Seddi a second to realize who it is.  He glances at her, looks back at Akamu...

...then blinks and looks back at the Psychic type.  "Vaultin' Veluza, Sylvia, is that you?  When'd you get here??  And where've you been?  Tried contactin' both you and Randy earlier, but couldn't get through no matter what I tried."

Out pops Seddi's Veluza to see what the ruckus is about!  Seeing there's no battles going on though, the razor sharp fishy relaxes a little...at least, until he glances in Akamu's direction.  He doesn't know why yet, but something seems *off*...

Increase Bond with Glommena and Beedrill ; Increase Darren's Medical Specialty by 1, and future Anti-Venom/Bug Poisoning attempts will be easier.

Darren looks for further minor odd jobs around the Center he can do

Minor Slot for Minor Jobs, coming right up!

1. Some Trainers are looking for someone to give their Pokemon some exercise, and you could devote Darren's time to leading a big group session. The Old Gentlemen vouches for you in this task, so you'll be able to draw a good crowd to teach (and learn from yourself).
2. Grunt work for the Staff at the Center, which include basic housekeeping, cafetria duty, and janitor responsibilities. Its not glammorous, but you'll be doing your part to make everyone jobs a lot easier and earn further goody points with the Center
3. Bug your Mentor for something to do. Aaron has mostly been snoozing in the lobby throughout this day, waking up occassionally to keep an eye on you and to see if anything would require his assistance. He'll find some way to keep you occupied meaningfully, though it'll no doubt put you through the ringer (again).
