Halas gets blown literally out of the water with a thundercrash of an electric move, and lands, nearly cooked. "Damnit, dude, it's still a Froakie, you didn't need to practically murder it!"Lia, now clearly pissed, recalls Halas before any more harm can be done, and unleashes Czolg. "Dragon Rage!"The Magikarp unleashes now very familiar Dragonic fire! Splash!

"I mean you didn't have to charge it up..."Lia grumbles as Czolg weathers most of the attack before throwing more dragonic fire! Splash!

"Well, maybe not, but not like I know how tough your Pokemon is. You're a gym trainer, after all. Could be anywhere from wimpy to insane (like that carvanha)..."
Voltorb rolls to the side to avoid the blast of flames, and fires back another of those electrical beams.

Voltorb is hit, but also not out. It glances back briefly at Gambler Bob, who nods. Instead of a beam of energy, it creates a big ol' ball of the stuff and chucks it at Czolg.

As the electric blast connects and just turns Czolg into fried fish, the Gambler looks concerned. "Huh. Maybe you shoulda held back a bit there, Voltorb. We're not tryin' ta' kill nobody here."1d20+1·2d8+76·2d8+10

Czolg gets basically blown up and fried in the same way as Czolg. Lia quickly scoops up Czolg in her arms, checking to see if he's at least 'alive'. Once confirmed, she returns him and shoots Bob a death glare.
"There's trying to beat someone and then trying to actually go for the actual 'kill', you STUPID DOU-"
Lia stops herself for a moment, trying her damndest to resist going on another tyrade at this man. Afterall, she's still at her job, and must 'attempt' to maintain professionalism. She looks back up, grits her teeth and forms a pained smile (Complete with a few twitches).
"Alright sir, you won so you can use our healing machine over there. Run away. Leader Aleisandra will be able to face you shortly. I hope she ends you."
Lia walks off to the machine, having to leave Halas and Czolg in for longer due to their extensive injuries from Bob's attacks. Unless one of the other Gym Trainers teams with her, she can't do much but take her lunch break and wait. Not much can be done with 'just' Muszla and Los during this rush. She heads off to the trainer break area and just sits, staring off into space.

Bob holds up his hands in a gesture of non-violence as Lia begins to chew him out. "Jeez, calm down lady. I just told ya I wasn't *trying* to kill nobody! Voltorb, come on back. Let's get the others fixed up and see if the Leader is more reasonable about losing to some random guy..."
Gambler Bob walks off, waiting for Lia to disappear into the staff break room before using the healing machine to get his team back in fighting shape.
In the break room, there is an weird, leather-clad woman with red hair hanging out, eating a salad of some kind. She waves hello to Lia, but doesn't immediately engage her in conversation. She also doesn't look like anyone Lia has ever seen around here before, and she's met all of the main Gym Trainers.

Lia does a double take when she sees the girl. (And not just because there's another battle-lookin redhead. That's 'her' schtick, afterall.)
That's not... no it's not her. Very out of place, though.
"Uhhh, hi? You new here, your just a 'tad' out of uniform to be a gym trainer."

The woman looks back at Lia. "Oh, no, I don't work here. I'm dating the Gym Leader, and she lets me hang out in here when she's busy." She winks provocatively.
"Seems like you're having a bad day out there."

"Oh I didn't know the boss was seeing anybody. Although I'm still rather new myself so there's that. Names Lia."
Lia grabs a drink of water as this woman questions how she is doing today.
"Eh. Try replacing 'day' with 'since I got to Kanto' and you'd be closer."

The woman laughs. "She usually keeps business and pleasure separated, though that hasn't stopped us before..." She grins mischievously.
"I'm Faeryl. I know what you mean about Kanto. It's pretty crappy if you ask me. The only good thing I've found here so far is Ali, but it's reason enough for me to stick around."

Lia tries to not choke herself while drinking as this woman talks without any sort of filter. She clears her throat.
"Place is alright, but it's more my experience since I got here. It's good you got a reason to keep you, though."

"Ah. Sorry to hear about that. It can't all be bad though, or you wouldn't still be here. Guess you must have enough reason for it to keep you as well then?"

"Friends, this job... And the fact I'm just 'really' stubborn."
Lia can't really shake just how much she looks like that other one. Something nibbling at the back of her mind. She pushes it down for now.

Faeryl laughs. "Ali can be quite stubborn as well. It's cute how she gets frustrated easily though. I'm sure you've seen it at least once. Those times where she gets all upset and starts shooting people looks that you'd swear would freeze a Fire Pokemon..."

"Yeah, she doesn't take losing very easily. You'd think she'd get used to it, seeing as she's a Gym Leader and all."

"Well let's just say I know the feeling of not getting used to losing and not taking it well."
Lia downs her water.

Faeryl finishes off the salad she was picking at, and dumps the remains into the garbage bin that is cleverly stowed inside the wall.
"Well, it was nice chatting with you, Lia. Since it seems Ali is going to be busy all day facing challengers, I think I'll head home and just talk to her later."
She waves goodbye as she heads out the door.
