floating

[goniochrome]

A tall white-blond haired man of nearly thirty years of age lay fully clothed on top of his bed with his eyes closed. Despite having long beautifully straight white blond hair for which many women would kill, it was still obvious he was a man. His facial structure and tall, strong framed body was clearly masculine. He wore a roll necked black sweater that showed his chest muscles with smart black trousers. He'd been wearing jeans all his life previously but he'd decided the time was right as he was soon to move into his thirties to move into smart trousers. His feet were bare and his shoes were on the carpeted floor to one side of the bed.

This was Oliver Kurtis Schwartz, a native of the Kanto region and twenty-nine years young. He had an unusual past in places but that was not uncommon for traveling Pokémon trainers like himself. He was ready for a new start now in this fantastic new region in the sky.

The sky. That was what he was thinking about as he lay there. A giant floating region suspended by the godly powers of Legendary Creation Pokémon in the sky. A soft smile came to his lips as he thought about it. He had no idea of the hidden past of the Lerruen but the only conclusion why a region would be floating high up in the sky to which he could come was that the Legendary Pokémon had put it there. Arceus, probably. He had no idea why.

Opening his eyelids, Oliver gave a quiet yawn and sat up. He began searching around for a clean pair of socks and then slipped his shoes on. He'd been relaxing on the bed in his rented room for about ten minutes now after dressing after his morning shower and shave. Now shod, he reached for his packed backpack and heaved it onto his shoulders. He scanned the room to make sure it was reasonably neat and then headed down the stairs to say goodbye to the maiden and give back the key to his room.

After a few minutes chatting, he finished saying his goodbyes and made his way out of the door, shielding his green eyes from the sun with one hand. He'd be setting out on the first route soon but first he had to get his starter Pokémon from the nearby lab. Luckily it was early morning so he had plenty of time.



[ooc: Anyone else who's staying here want to meet up?]

[jeffery]

The messy haired teenager let out a big yawn and rolled over from where he was sprawled on his front on his bed and promptly fell off onto the floor. He awoke with a jerk and rubbed his new set of bruises ruefully. He looked around.

The room he'd rented at the inn was fairly small but it still had everything he needed. A single bed, places to put his stuff, a toilet and sink and a shower to wash in so he always looked his best for the ladies. If was fine but it did slightly smell of cats...

Groggily Jeffery got to his feet and went to get a shower and get dressed. Last night when he'd arrived he'd just flopped on the bed fully clothed as he was too tired to be bothered enough to change. Now he'd got imprints on his skin from creases and folds in his clothes. Great. Not that he really cared that much.

After his shower, he stood wearing only a towel and stared into the mirror. A toothbrush hung out of his mouth and his wet hair was slicked back out of the way until he got around to styling it. He reached up and inspected his face. No spots, good. Hopefully any time now he'd be old enough to shave. With a sigh, he finished brushing his teeth and styled his hair.

A few minutes later a clean, dressed and awake version of Jeremy was ready to leave. He ran around the room, picking up his unpacked things and stuffing them inside his backpack. That'd do. He heaved it up onto his back and left, heading downstairs.

He spotted the tall older guy with long white hair he'd seen last night talking to the inn lady. He'd dubbed the guy Lady-boy because of his long hair. It wasn't very inventive but he had been half asleep at the time. He waited for the guy to move so he could give the key to his room back to her and make sure he'd paid enough last night (he'd been so tired he'd just shoved a few notes into her hand and hoped it was enough). After that he followed the guy out of the door but almost bumped into him since he'd stopped just outside to look around.

"Sorry." he said. "Are you on your way to the lab too?"
