Time to Stop Being a Loner

It was a fairly quiet day in the guild, which was perfect in a certain glaceon's eyes.  Sova didn't want any more attention than he needed today, more so than most days.  Why?  Because today, he was adding two members to the roster of his lonely "team."  He didn't anyone annoying himself and his new teammates, he wanted them to be able to get through the registration process swiftly and without difficulties.  He approached the door to Faye's room and knocked on the door, verbally "knocking" as well, "Knock knock!  You in there?"  He could have been more polite, sure, but he didn't like being formal with anyone, it felt so boring and fake.  Besides, Faye never seemed to really get offended. Besides, she was probably already expecting him, since he had let her know he wanted to sign up two new members for his team.

Behind the glaceon were two other eeveelutions.  A jolteon who was looking around nervously, as if he was afraid of social interaction and a vaporeon who was keeping her attention on the door.  The latter wanted to know who the guildmaster was, as her escort hadn't really told her anything, saying it would be a "surprise" and the prior just wanted this to end quickly as he was already having more social interaction than he was comfortable with.

"Sh-shouldn't you have a little more respect for the Guildmaster?", Keith, the jolteon, questioned.  He seemed a bit worried, as he was imagining someone with the title of "Guildmaster" as authoritative and intimidating, someone who wouldn't stand for anything remotely close to disrespect.

Skylar, the vaporeon, nodded in agreement, "Yeah....", though she wasn't really worried, she just liked being nice to others.

"Maybe, but that's no fun.", Sova responded jokingly.

It took a moment, but the door opened to reveal the head of a meganium using a vine to turn the knob and open the door, "Oh, hello there Sova," Faye spoke, happy to see the apprentice. She opened the door fully, "Who're these two?" she inquired, curious about the Jolteon and Vaporeon that followed behind the glaceon. The jolteon seemed rather fidgety, while the vaporeon seemed a bit more calm and collected. She grinned, waiting for the reply.

(Since Sere is kinda not posting and there's nobody else to do this I guess i'll do it, i'll keep things as short and simple as I can)

Sova immediately waved a paw at the Guildmaster as she opened the door. "Skylar, the vaporeon and Keith, the jolteon.", he replied.

"Hi! Nice to meet you.", Skylar greeted. However, Keith seemed to remain silent and stare down at the ground.

"Keeeeeeeeeeith, say hi.", Sova urged the jolteon. Keith seemed to actually listen and reply, "....H-Hi.", speaking quickly and glancing up at the meganium for a moment.

"These two wanna join my team. Guess it can be an actual "team" now.", Sova replied with a joke.

"Ok, just step inside and we can begin this!" Faye spoke cheerfully, stepping into her office and opening the door for the three eeveelutions. She sent a vine to grab the book of the apprentice records from the shelf, grabbing a tranquil's quill to write with.

"Ok, Team name? Your names again?" she asked cheerfully, holding the book in one vine and the quill in another. She was rather eager to sign up some new members to the guild, after all, some of the members had not quite been doing much lately. Maybe this would turn things around!

Sova followed the Guildmaster as he was invited in, looking back to the other two and gesturing for them to follow with his head. Skylar more than happily followed, but keith hesitated. The jolteon was getting nervous, very nervous. The Guildmaster was nice, seemingly too nice.... Was there some evil within? Like one of those "don't get them angry or you die" type deals? He stopped at the door and neglected to say his name out of fear.

"Team Sentima, guessing you don't need my name since I'm already registered.", Sova replied.

"Skylar!", the vaporeon happily chimed in. They waited for the third reply, but when there was none, they both turned towards the jolteon.

Sova sighed and walked over to his jolteon friend. "Keith, come in and say your name.... or I'll touch you.", he threatened. Perhaps it seemed like an odd threat to one who didn't understand the situation, as a mere touch wasn't very threatening.

"W-what? You'll get shocked if you-", Keith began, only to be cut off.

"Then come in and say your name.", Sova replied with a friendly smile. The jolteon hesitantly stepped in the door and with a moment of delay, finally spoke his name once more. "K-Keith."

Faye seemed a bit too busy to have heard the comment about the glaceon touching the jolteon, and instead took to her book and wrote down their names and species next to the Glaceon's name. Once she had finished, she closed the book and set it back on the shelf. She placed her quil delicately back into its holder, before making her way to the back of the room towards a rather large chest. She opened the chest with a certain and strange lock, and took out two ribbons. She held a ribbon in each vine and turned back towards the recruits and offered them out to them, "Here you go! Welcome to the guild!" she spoke with cheer.

Skylar immediately accepted her ribbon, giving a bow of her head in gratitude. "Thank you!", she replied. "I'm happy to be here!", she continued.

Keith, however, hesitated. He reached a paw out, but seemed worried about accepting the ribbon. He was worried about accidentally bumping the Guildmaster's vine and shocking her. But, luckily for him, the glaceon who'd brought him here took the ribbon for him and draped it over his neck.

"He's afraid of shocking others.", Sova explained in case the Guildmaster was curious, dropping the ribbon over Keith's neck and being careful not to touch the jolteon and get himself shocked in the process.

Skylar didn't seem to have too much trouble tying her ribbon, despite the difficulty of paws. She'd decided to tie it around one of her paws, though, which was a bit easier than the neck. Her front left paw in specific. Keith, however, had a bit of difficulty tying his. He didn't seem interested in asking anyone for help, mostly because he didn't want to speak up and sound like he was complaining.

Luckily, Sova noticed the difficulty and decided to help his friend out. He grabbed onto the two ends of the ribbon, in his mouth and one of his paws. "W-wait, what if you-", the jolteon tried to protest, but Sova simply cut him off. "Don't worry about it.", he assured.

Carefully, the glaceon tied the ribbon, brushing up against his electrified friend's fur a few times and shocking himself. He didn't show any pain from the shocks though. Honestly, he'd felt much worse plenty before, this was no big deal.

(Don't they still need bags and badges?)

(Hold yo dang horses boi)

The meganium smiled as the glaceon assisted the jolteon in putting on the ribbon. She reached back into the chest, pulling out explorer bags and badges before handing them to the two eeveelutions. She had flinched a bit when Keith had shocked her, but immediately pieced together that he did not mean it, the pokemon just did not seem like the type to do something on purpose. Perhaps he would learn some day to control the electricity within him? Hm...well, now was not the time to wonder about that, "There we go, you're all signed up, take care now~"

Skylar more than happily accepted her bag and badge, attaching the badge to the strap of the bag. She looked down at the bag for a moment and swayed back and forth a bit, letting it sway with her as she got a feel for it. It was pretty much the same as Sova's; she knew because she had carried it before.

Keith also accepted his equipment happily. However, upon touching the meganium's vine, the happiness all faded away. He frowned, clearly showing his guilt as he put the bag around his neck. "S-sorry.", he said, quietly, but still audibly enough to be heard. He hesitated for a moment with the badge in his paw before attaching it to the edge of the opening of his bag.

Sova nodded to the Guildmaster with a smile as she stated that ths signup process was finished. "Thanks, Faye!", he thanked, with his two new teammates nodding in agreement.
He then escorted the two new members of his team out of the Guildmaster's room and showed them where their own room was. It was technically his room too, but he never really used it.
