BLIND DATES GROUP 2

What: BLIND DATES!
Who: Anyone who was sent a note with an C# &D# table numbers.
Where: Off-campus restaurant. AND BEYOND!
When: November 19th
Warnings: Who knows depending who is here.

[The second group's restaurant is Asian Fusion Dinning. The rooms looks fancy but down to earth and the menu is very varied. Still expensive, however, but you've been given a 100$ budget for eating each!

The lighting is dim, with flickering, oil candles on every table. The place is decorated in stylish black and browns, with Japanese and Chinese wallscrolls and paintings. The overhead
music is traditional yet somehow futuristic Asian music, to fit with the theme. Your servers are all dressed up for the occasion, and speak broken English.

Beside each candle, there's a card. Each card has a different letter-number combination.

Find your table!

OH YEAH AND FEEL FREE TO LEAVE THE RESTAURANT AND GO ANYWHERE ELSE!]

"Ah." It made sense to him now. His folded hands briskly descended from his chin to the table. Lash hadn't managed to catch Zapdos after all, but the fact that she was able to contract such workable terms with him still remained. That called for hooking Zapdos's trust before capture, something that sounded even more difficult than performing it the opposite route.

And yet, she still lost her first gym match. "What it sounds like to me is, while she knows how to acquire a Pokemon's trust and respect, she still lacks the experience needed to earn a gym badge. Which gym did she challenge, if I may ask?"

It took Hawke a moment to remember. All this Pokemon business seemed to blur together, after all.

"She tried for the...Boulder Badge, I think it was called. Sort of unimpressive boy with the squint and the rock-creatures. He flattened her."

Even more curtains were pulled away from his understanding of Lash's circumstances. Falkner was quick to point out, "Flying-types have a weakness to rock-types, so... that makes a win with Brock all the more difficult to achieve..." Which also meant that it was too soon to judge her capabilities as a prodigal trainer. Brock totally didn't count. Rock slide is cheating.

Falkner continued to reason out the situation, because he was engaged and didn't want to stop thinking about it. "Many rock-types are also ground-type, so that would make it even more difficult for her and Zapdos. Its electric attacks wouldn't stand a chance." He folded his arms and nodded sagely at that statement. "If she used her Skarmory, she may have more leverage against him, but that Skarmory is young and in need of more training. It isn't ready to defeat strong opponents without a stroke of luck yet."

Hawke probably didn't care, Falkner. Stop while you're ahead.

ON THE CONTRARY. Hawke totally cared. The more he knew about Pokemon, the more he could understand and figure out how to HARNESS THEIR POWER FOR THE GLORY OF BLACK HOLE.

Or at least be able to pay attention when Lash rambled on about Zapdos.

"Actually, he refused to give her the badge when she used illegal items. Though I'm not sure why he even bothered to disqualify her when he flattened her anyway. Perhaps to set a precedent."
