The sound of cracking bones vibrated the air, yet there was no sort of pain following this. Instead, there was a quiet hum followed by more cracking sounds. After a few minutes, Salem stood upwards and sighed cracking his knuckles slightly as he did so. Well that had been a nice stretch. Looking towards the yoga instructor who simply nodded at him, Salem nodded back. "Ah thank you for that; I needed a stretch out, good luck with your work by the way," the man smiled before putting a hand to his chest and bowing slightly causing a slight blush to come to the face of the yoga instructor that was quickly wiped away as she said something along the lines of 'no problem Mr. Smith'.
Turning away, Salem began to walk away. In truth, he wasn't there to be enjoying himself at all, and as he walked away, that smile that had been on his face slowly vanished. He would have rather been home with Brina to be honest, but rebel work kept him away. There was information to be passed around, and he was the one who had been asked to do such. Thus, he had headed north and done it. Thankfully, he had been able to find someone to watch after his Brina for a few days, their neighbor as it were whom happened to have a boy around Brina's age. However, not having his daughter with him regardless of knowing that she was safe and fine was something Salem disliked.
Pulling out a phone, Salem pressed a button and set t the phone to his ear. "Hello, would you mind putting Brina on the phone?...........hello dearest, how are you?" Soft words were exchanged before the white haired man finally nodded to himself, flipped the phone forwards and closed it again. He felt a bit better now, at least. Closing his eyes, Salem sighed before opening said eyes. There wasn't much of a chance for him to get home today. It was far too late for that, and he had no fast pokemon...
Maybe....he'd just walk for a bit, as lazy as that sounded, of course. Laughing slightly to himself, he started to walk off towards one of the smaller spring pools.

A Spheal was seen as he walked towards the springs sitting in the snow, enjoying the cold. Another Speal was seen a little bit further on, rolling around in the snow because it could. Another Spheal was seen further on. What was with all of these random Spheals everywhere!?!
At the Springs, a small Sneasel, which was likely to be a child, was kicking around in the spring while holding onto the wall. It looked afraid to let go of the edge though. Maybe it couldn't swim well? A bigger Sneasel was watching the younger one in the water. It looked older than the other Sneasel though. In the water was another little Sneasel, though it was a little bit bigger than the other. It was trying to help the little Sneasel swim away from the edge, but this Sneasel looked a little different. It was kind of... very pink and sparkly.They must have been a family. Next to the spring was a Buizel who was staring at the family having fun. T_T It wanted to have fun too!

Salem walked rather straight backed with his hands in his pockets and his head looking around only a time or two at each five-step interval. He really wasn't aiming for much, which was odd for him, but his sight and mild were taking in all the information there was about the area at hand. The Spheal weren't of any interest to him, really. For one thing, they were normal colored, and for another, they weren't exactly the most petable creatures on earth. Sure they could probably show some sort of entertainment maybe by the use of balancing a ball on their noses or something of the like, but that was it. No thank you~
Stopping in mid step as his eyes caught sight of the sparkling pink Sneasel, Salem readjusted his stance and stepped back a moment. Well now, a shiny was it? It certainly did look different from the rest and wasn't black or white so... he was left to assume, heh. He was fond of alternate color pokemon, but the pink wasn't generally his style of color. Then again, he was sure his dearest Brina would adore something as pink as that... though then again, it had claws that could probably shred her at a moment's notice.... No.
Chuckling to himself for a brief moment, Salem turned his head away and simply continued to walk once more. Indeed, this man was highly specific when it came to pokemon.

As he continued to walk, a Vanillish was seen moving the other way. It seemed that it didn't like the springs too much and was a bit upset by them. They were always so crowded D: He wanted one where he could be alone.. A Vanillite was seen walking with it. DX Why did it's dad have to be so picky? A Litwick was slowly following them with a creepy little grin. It wanted to scare them!
A Mienfoo was seen over in the other direction, trying to create giant snowballs for some reason. Oh wait! It was making snowmen! Suddenly, it unleashed a Force Palm on it, destroying it. He needed to train and wanted to play at the same time.. so he used snowmen to train ^_^ A Swinub was sliding on some ice far off in the distance. A Charmander was sliding around with him with a big grin. This was so much fun~ A Ducklett was flying in the sky, minding it's own business.

He continued to walk along and stopped to watch a few of the pokemon as they moved. The only pokemon that was mildly interesting was--- Wha-..... Did he just.... force/palm a snowman? Blinking and staring, Salem slowly turned his head to one side and sweat dropped. Well... Mienfoo were interesting creatures, and their evolved forms were gorgeous, among other things... Slowly changing the course of his walking, the white haired man headed towards the Mienfoo. "Hm... having fun there?" he asked in his normally calm, clear, and collected voice.

The Mienfoo looked up at the man as he continued to roll a big ball of snow to attempt making another snowball. "Mien!" it calls out happily. It had to admit, it was a lot of work to make these snowmen, even if they were small, just to break them down, but that just made his training even more effective! He never did make huge ones, since he didn't want to waste everyone's snow.

Well now this cute little pokemon was rather interesting. Salem had to admit it. Bringing a finger to his chin and looking carefully at the Mienfoo's snow skills, Salem leaned forwards a little. "Craning or something, I take it?" he asked calmly looking over the general cycle of destruction and rebuilding. He wasn't really a fan of training, but it was certainly beneficial to the strength of his pokemon... which... eh ... was sometimes good though most of his were pets anyways. "You should really try some pokemon to pokemon battling if you really want to be stronger," he suggested after a moment.

The Mienfoo was continuing to create more snowman and practically ignored the man's comments. He simply let out a little "Foo," and continued to build on. He wanted to have fun, and it wasn't fun to have pokemon beat you up. He just wanted to be strong so he could support himself and other's. He refused to do any senseless battles unless he was forced to.

Eh? Well the refusal was somewhat unexpected, but that possibly meant the Mienfoo was more docile than previously anticipated which was arguably a good thing. After a moment, Salem slowly bent down and picked up some snow and set up a bit of his own snowman. Ah... he really wished Brina were here.. she would have loved the snow. His face and features remained light even as the white haired man continued to think over whether or not he actually wanted the Mienfoo or not. Well.. it wasn't differently colored, but it did seem rather docile.... hm... Well.. he'd just see. "What do you think?" was the question posed as Salem gestured to his own rather sloppy snowman.

The Mienfoo looked at the snowman and frowned slightly. He let his snowman sit there as he suddenly started to fix the sloppy snowman. "Mien! Mien mien foo!" he calls out somewhat quickly, trying to tell him that he needs to take more time and make them look better. "Foo mien." he simply states, trying to tell him that he was supposed to make one look like the one he made.

Salem didn't speak pokemon, but he got a bit of the understanding of what was being said by the body language. Heh, he was telling him how to build a better snowman? What a silly little pokemon.... Yet at the same time, it was rather amusing to say the least. "Tell me, do you build other things?" he asked as though he were more or less continuing the conversation despite the fact that he was actually rather curious at the moment. Maybe with a bit of diplomacy, this Mienfoo would come quietly, heh...

The Mienfoo listened as he fixed the sloppy snowman into a round and rather good looking one. "Mien mien foo mien." he states rather happily. He was trying to tell them that he liked to build things, but wasn't very good. He finished fixing the snowman and went back to his own. He decided not to destroy that one, since it was the human's snowman too. It would be rude to do that, so he would try to finish his own instead.

Given the positive note of sorts, Salem nodded his head slowly more or less interpreting it as best he could. Ah, what he wouldn't give to know what pokemon said at times.... Then again, Midnight could speak English which was somewhat unnerving at times. "I see... thank you," he perked up lightly at the motions of the Mienfoo. "I can't say I can build many things, sadly.... though I do know how to rn them." He chuckled slightly to himself thinking that over.

The Mienfoo seemed to nod, though he too couldn't understand every last word the human said, he knew most of what was going on. He continued to work on the snowman and soon had it smoothed out and looking pretty good. In fact, it was better than the one he fixed for the man. He smiled happily to himself as he admired both of the snowmen. He decided not to destroy them yet. Besides, he'd get snow all over the man D:

For a bit, Salem watched the Mienfoo work, and after that bit was over, he put his hands in his pockets, stood up, and shivered slightly. His skinny form was actually very used to the cold having grown up in the north, but it was still cold, especially now in the winter of all seasons. "You could probably do something very special with clay or maybe some Model Magic," he chuckled lightly to himself bringing up a fist and smiling slightly. "My Brina uses a lot of the latter... when she wants to anyways..." he sighed a little but smiled none the less.

The Mienfoo didn't quite understand what the man said, but he found a few of those words very interesting. "Mi? Foo?" he asks rather in a rather curious tone. He didn't know what the Model Magic was, and wasn't exactly sure what he could do with Clay. He hadn't used them before... so he was getting extremely curious about this now. He was actually looking at the man now, completely ignoring the work he had just finished. This was more important than snow to him.

Salem blinked and turned his head to one side and then the other. "It's like... something you can meld with your hands and shape it to anything your heart desires," he answered back rather fluidly after that brief moment of hesitation. "I don't have any with me at the moment, sadly. Too bad, really... I'd almost say it was more fun than using snow." He laughed a little and rubbed the back of his head gently.

The poor little pokemon was now so disappointed, yet still so excited, that he suddenly began to jump up and down at the man's feet. "Mien! Mien! Mien!" he calls out, practically demanding the things he had brought up. He continued to call this out, even when he was told that there was none with them.

Salem put a few fingers on his chin as he listened to the Mienfoo in question. "Well I can't take it to you... but I could take you to it~?" he asked in a general light voice before slowly pulling out a pokeball and holding it forwards. "I'm sure my little girl would like you as well~" he smiled lightly.

The Mienfoo looked at the pokeball for a moment. He suddenly grabbed it from the man's hands and started to examine it more closely as he spun it around. =3 This thing was amazing! He was trying to pry it open, but he wasn't quite able to make it. He then tapped the button to see if it would open up, and sure enough it did! Then a big red light came flying out and engulfed the poor pokemon and trapped him inside. It shook just a little bit, but sure enough, the pokeball had captured the Mienfoo and fell down to the snow, near where the snowman should have had feet.
Name: Species: Mienfoo Gender: Male Ability: Inner Focus ~ The Pokemon does not flinch. Personality: This Mienfoo acts a little strange for a fighting pokemon. He strives to become stronger, but he wants to do nothing but have fun and build things. He isn't very great at fighting or building yet, but they are both going up gradually. He isn't very mean to people, yet he has a mind that allows him to only work on one thing at a time. He'll leave one thing half done to finish enough, then he'll come back to fix it. He doesn't like anyone breaking anything he makes, but he'll gladly do it himself. He doesn't like to battle, but he does when it is absolutely needed.
