[center] "...You didn't call me to tell me you would be coming." Not that Willow would be too interested in meeting with David, either. The white-haired man wore a weary and put-off expression. "If you have something you wish to talk to me about, then you'll have to wait until I'm done with these... children." He honestly didn't know what else to call the new trainers. He was surprised that the kids didn't know his name. Maybe they lived under rocks or something, and crawled out from the dirt. Mostly everyone in the region was familiar with his name by now, with him being one of the only pokemon professors around. "Mentors are customary." Professor Willow told David. And it was true. Mentors had been apart of this for awhile. He hardly knew David anyways. Elite Four? Gym leader? He was someone of importance. Professor Willow really didn't care, especially with the sense of entitlement David was showing, just randomly showing up and expecting to be addressed in a friendly manner. Idiot.

He had gotten his starter and his pokedex, and he supposed that was what really mattered, despite the professor's bitter demeanor. He had not expected Professor Willow to have such a personality--after everyone had spoken so highly of him and his discoveries. Apparently, he was the youngest pokemon professor to ever become one in the region. Suddenly, the glass doors opened, and a young man in a stylish trench coat rushed in. His hair was peculiar, both black and white. [img]http://33.media.tumblr.com/06c3540727fc1f7b07b6f9127c41259e/tumblr_inline_nix7sda4hn1sfvecc.png[/img] "My apologies, Professor Willow!" The young man was panting. He raced across town to reach the lab. "The train was delayed--I almost got lost--" "It's fine." The professor bluntly asserted. "O-Oh. Okay. Good." The young man took a deep breath, before turning to the new trainers. "Hello there! I'm Flora Willowblossom, and I've been chosen to be the mentor of the new trainers! Mentors usually do things like help trainers catch pokemon-- or advise trainers on which pokemon to catch that may fit them the best--things like that. But it's nice to meet you all!" [/center]
