[Closed] Creature Feature
WHO: Augustine and Ainsley
WHERE: Recolle University
WHEN: April 3
WHAT: A college professor's package contains much more than a ball.
WARNINGS: Expect screaming and dragon roaring. That's all.
While it's another Monday for everyone in Recolle University, a certain college professor is about to get a surprise of a lifetime.
As Augustine arrived at his office early at 8 AM, he brought most of his lecture materials for his upcoming lectures today. Right now, he has 2 scheduled in the morning and afternoon so he has enough time to work on the paperwork for the rest of today. However, there is also one new item he brought today as well courtesy of Retrospec.
Before he arrived at the university, he received a package from them. Of course, he is curious at what kind of unusual item they sent to him this time, so he opened it to see what it is, which he was then surprised to see that it was a strange red and while capsule-like ball. His first reaction to it was confusion as he wondered why he was given a strange toy. But then again, he decided to take a closer look at it later as he brought the ball with him.
Of course, as he just finished his preparations for his next lecture, he is still curious at the ball from his new Retrospec package and decides to use his spare time to take a real closer look at it just in case. When he did, he also took a few minutes to contemplate about the button on the center of it, which he decides to try pressing it cautiously to see if it might do something.
He then wished he didn't press it.
Because once he did, some of the students and professors will start to hear his screams of horror just outside his office. If a certain someone can rush into his office on time, she will see not only Augustine on the ground slowly backing away as he stares at it in fear, but she can also see a dark blue dragon with a dorsal fin sticking out of it's back and curved fins on its arms, which it then roared at the top of its lungs. And judging how it approached the professor, you can either guess it is about to maul him or worst.
Regardless, it's best to help Augustine before it is too late.

"That... I don't know. But I did have a vision of three creatures a few weeks ago." He then shows the exact drawing to Ainsley as Modeste approaches him to take a closer look at it as well. "Only that these three are very different than Modeste."
no subject
She looks at the drawings with curiosity, her head tilted as she took in the details before her. They certainly would stand out for her if they were here in the city. Meaning, at some point, their existence would have been known to them if they didn't personally run into any of the three.
"Do you know these three, Modeste? Are they your friends?" Maybe it's a little tactless to assume Modeste would know about this creatures but it never hurt to try.
If she didn't know any of them then they'll... keep an eye out for the animal shelter? Leave food out of the university in hopes they'll go to it? They'll figure something out. Long as they had each other's back, they can do almost anything.
no subject
"Well, Modeste? Do you know these three?"
While she did felt like she seen them before, Modeste just nodded no as she can't pinpoint where did she even knows or sees them. "I see. Guess that means you can't remember who they are as well, huh."
no subject
Would she gain visions like them too? Feel faint and everything every time something reminded her of something else? Ooooh Ainsley hoped that wasn't the case. She'll have no idea how to help a faint dragon-creature if they passed out or felt sick. She's still Googling things about Kara, for goodness' sake.
For now that's a bridge they'll cross some other (hopefully long) time. She looks back at the drawing, taking note of their appearance. "They look... small, I suppose. If they are around, I hope they're hiding themselves well. I hate to think what would happen to them if they got caught by someone."
no subject
"I'm guessing that's a yes. You really don't remember everything before you came?"
The dragon creature nodded yes, which he felt some regret at what she had been through. "I'm really sorry to hear about that."
As for the small creatures from his journal drawing, he is also worried about these creatures as well. Sure, they looked like fictional creatures, but with these strange changes happening around the city, he wonders if they are safe as well. "Well, if they will appear, I hope I can try to help them to protect them from hunters and any dangers. That's what the Recollé Zoo and Aquarium's Endangered Animal Preservation for."
no subject
"We can do it! I can hope wherever they are, they're fine…" And the proverbial lightbulb lights up over her head. "Unless Retrospec has them already and won't give them to you or someone else yet."
For… reasons. Retrospec Reasons. (Yes. She's actually had to make that up whenever trying to think about the motives of the company for what's happening. The best way to easily boil down the strangeness of the company's actions that didn't involve curse words. She's proud of that.)
"I mean! How on earth did Modeste get in there and get to you while still in the Poke Ball, unharmed?" The Poke Ball looks clean with no scuff marks or signs of damage on it that she can see. "There's no way they didn't know about her existence in there yet."
no subject
As for Ainsley's question about how Modeste got to him while inside the Poke Ball, that one made him wonder the same thing. How did Retrospec manage to send him without the knowledge that the dragon creature was inside it?
"You made a valid point there. They should have checked the Poke Ball's contents before sending me these packages. Then again, it did look like an ordinary capsule ball to everyone else..."
no subject
She knows Retrospec doesn't give a whit about them but goodness gracious you think Jim would want to live long enough for his and Janet's wedding.
"... Hmmm..." A thought occurs to her as she tilts her head to the side, looking at the Poke Ball before looking back at Augustine. "I wonder- Will this work on all sorts of animals as well? Or only creatures like Modeste? It doesn't hurt to experiment with this if Modeste is okay."
Ainsley what on earth are you implying here.
no subject
Then just as she wonders about the Poke Ball will work on animals, Augustine's face is mixed with confusion and shock when he thought of this. Even his dragon is having some doubts when she heard this as well.
"I don't know. I did remember this ball can work on the creatures like Modeste, but I don't know if testing it with some animals would be a bad idea."
no subject
Long as their friend is safe and no more surprise disappearing tricks occurred, they should be fine. Which does leave one important question hanging over all three of them. She crosses her arms, wondering what they can do at the moment. "It's only a suggestion What's the next step for us then?"
no subject
"I think the next step is to make sure nobody else would see her. If they did, we might have a mass hysteria in our hands." It might be a good idea since he feels that law enforcements might mistake her as a wild animal and capture her. "Also, I might try to rearrange my apartment so Modeste can sleep in with me."
no subject
It was something similar she had to do for Kara after all- Make it habitable for a dog. Modeste is... most certainly not a dog but the principles are the same. This shouldn't be too hard to do, more so if it was the two of them working together and Modeste probably letting her feelings be known while they set the apartment up to her preferences.
no subject
But when the alarm on his phone starts to ring, Augustine realizes that he forgot something. "Oh, my! I still need to prepare for my next lecture in 30 minutes!"
no subject
After gathering her stuff and waving goodbye to Modeste, she wishes Augustine good luck for the day ahead of him. "Take care, okay? Don't be a stranger!"
no subject
With that, he continues his preparations as soon Ainsley left his office. And despite there is now a dragon in his office, he feels that he won't be little lonely thanks to his new friend with him. Sure, it might be difficult since he still needs to find a way to hide her and she was sent by Retrospec, he feels that if he helps her, then she might do the same with him in the near future.
