Angel felt excited.. he was going to keep the picture. She was happy to feel like she had really made a friend, and they would both have pictures and would remember each other. It made things easier.. it made it feel like whenever they saw the pictures it would be like meeting each other again.
She hoped they would really meet each other again though. She waited outside, watching him in this sort of store she had never been in before. Pictures were nothing that her mother and father had that much of a passion for.. which is surprising since her mother made clothes and liked to dress her up when she was young. Any sort of camera would have done for them.
She entered the shop when he motioned her in and took in it's vibe. It was clean. It had a nice smell. Wonder Bird was in it's Poke Ball now since she was worried about it making a big mess of the shop. "Hey Kouji, this place is pretty cool!" she said, looking at all the camera stuff. She wondered how long she would have to save up before she was able to get something like this. "How much of this stuff do you have? What does it do?"

He couldn’t help but chuckle to himself as Angel followed into the shop after him, after making sure to tie up her bike at the bike rack outside—and thankfully both their ‘mons were in their respective Pokeballs so no harm, no foul. When he was asked just how much of all the things on display he had, Kouji couldn’t help but scratch his head sheepishly. “Well,” he began, turning around and seeing that she was near him, while waiting for the printer to spit out the pictures, “…I have this camera. I got it for myself, and saving up for it took me a while, but in the end I have this… and a couple of detachable lenses, a stand… oh you know, the basic nature photographer’s set-up,” he said, pointing off to a display case that had a tripod in it. “It’s mostly the stands for this camera, some extra lenses, a lot of extra memory cards—because I take a ton of pictures—and a lot of extra batteries as well. I’ve been waiting for them to develop a camera that only needs solar power for it to be used so I don’t have to worry about the batteries I lug around, but so far nothing’s come out of that yet,” he ended with a sheepish look on his face, before seeing that the printer had now spat out two copies of the pictures that they’d taken together.
He then began separating the pictures, holding on to his copies in his right hand and separating the ones for Angel in his left hand. once he’d gotten then divided evenly, he then handed the stack of pictures in his left hand to her, saying, “Here’s your copy of the pictures we took. I asked ‘em to print it in a wallet-sized format so you can just cram the pictures into your wallet or somewhere convenient for you—“ he trailed off when his buddy on the staff team came out carrying something in his hands—it was a digital camera; just exactly the one he’d asked them to get. He’d also noticed that there was quite a stack of memory cards on it—because his friend also had the same sense of foresight that he did—that Angel would end up taking a lot of pictures on her own journey. Quickly turning his attention back to her so that it wasn’t’ too obvious, he then said, “Hey, guess what? I have something for you. Can you close your eyes for me?” he asked her, motioning for his friend to place the box down on the counter first at an angle so that she couldn’t see what he was going to give her in a few moments!
Sorry, ended up doing an action which always stops my post short.

Angel couldn't believe it. She felt her hands reach outwards.. wanting to hold it in her hands. She had just been so excited about the idea of owning a camera but hadn't expected that someone else would have bought it for her like this. Now she was feeling it in her hands.. she felt her mind quickly start popping up with all sorts of suggestions on the things she could take pictures of. The possibilities seemed endless and all the excitement that Angel wanted to express was all fighting to come out at once.
The effect left her speechless for a moment, before she finally practically leaped in the air! "Thank you Kouji!" she said, and jumped towards him. If he let her, she would wrap her arms around him tight and bring him in for a big hug. A big smile on her face as she felt extremely grateful that she had met this guy. He was so so nice.
"We have to call, and we have to stay friends, and you have to see all my pictures."

He then hefted the box along with the small pile of memory cards down into her hands—and watched with a look of amusement on his face as she suddenly took a leap into the air—and very nearly sent the box flying! “Whoa there!” he yelped out of surprise, catching the box and the stack of memory cards atop it with his other hand—thank the gods he was flexible and nimble enough to catch something out of thin air! There was nothing better than seeing a kid’s face light up out of joy and excitement—so this was definitely one of the moments that he was going to keep filed away forever. After finally managing to place the box down again on the counter (and snatching a piece of paper the smirking staff member was handing to him) he then quickly scribbled something down on it, before handing it to her atop the box again, this time in a more formal manner.
“That piece of paper has my mobile number on it, so if you want to show me the pictures, just drop me a call when you can. I can’t wait to see what you’ll start snapping, you know,” he said with this huge grin on his face before ruffling Angel’s hair again, hoping she didn’t mind messing it up. “Keep me updated on your journey, just… call me, okay?” he continued, unsure if she knew about the text message feature—or if she did then he’d be in for a surprise. “If you want to find me, my Ranch is way up north, all the way in Humilau; just take the Undersea Tunnel from Undella and you’ll find it there. You may have to ask around for the other photographer at the photo booth; I’m the one who takes tourist pictures when it’s weekends over there,” he continued, before ruffling up her hair once more. The staff member who’d witnessed the exchange gave him a thumbs-up before grinning and then leaving the two alone in the store.
“Of course we’ll be friends! That’s already a given. The camera—and the pictures, is our sign of friendship,” he continued, before opening the box and then showing her the digital camera, and giving her a brief explanation on how it actually worked. He’d also slipped in one of the memory cards in the little slot on its underside, and then explained that once the little stick was full of pictures, she could swap it in for another one, and even showed her how to do it while she was on the road. He then fished out the small carrying bag that came along in the box, and then opened up the side pocket before slipping in all the extra memory cards there; along with the little charger that came along with it. “If you see the camera running low, go to the nearest Pokémon Center and look for an outlet; charge up the camera until it’s full,” he added, making sure to show her how to take care of the camera as well.
New beginnings indeed! Feel free to wrap things up~

Angel smiled and watched carefully as the nice new friend of her's showed her how to take pictures. Again, her thoughts were wrapped up so strongly in the pictures she might take, and the things that she might show..
That.. he actually had really helped her. She was looking for a direction and she had gotten it through meeting Kouji. Now she was excited to start her journey. She had been before but she just had been excited to start a journey. Now she knew what she was doing and she had a goal. Although she was sad that she was going to say goodbye to her knew friend, the promise of talking and getting to show him the efforts of her journey was amazing to her.
"Thank you Kouji! You're the best! Better then the rest!" she seemed REALLY happy.. just relaxed and smiling. Then she said.. "You have good luck too okay? Show me even more pictures and... we'll do more fun things again! With all our other Pokemon! Like race! Or stop evildoers!" These apparently were the fun things according to Angel, although it made sense.. I mean.. had she not made it obvious that was what she was interested in?

“Aw, don’t mention it,” he began, this sheepish grin crossing his face yet again as he looked right at her; seeing the excitement reflected in her eyes at the sight of the camera and all the little things that came along with it. “You be careful out there too, okay? Don’t lose that piece of paper that has my number on it; just in case you want to contact me, just dial that number and you’ll reach me right away. Have a good journey now, okay?” he added, standing up and taking the box long, seeing as the contents were now in her hands. “We definitely have to meet again. Who knows, maybe by that time our Vullabies will have evolved and turned into Mandibuzz… or you might become some famous Trainer who goes and defeats the baddies and I get the rights to snap your picture!” he added, unable to keep the infectious mood out of the area—what was it with children that had made them so adorable in the first place? Right at that moment he felt something vibrating in his pocket, so with his free hand he reached in and then saw that his own phone was trembling, and there was an incoming call!
“Hello,” he began, going silent as he listened in on the speaker on the other end of the line, and then nodding to himself as he took note of the details that were being given to him. “Right, I’ll be there in a bit, hang on to your underwear, I’m just picking up a few things from the store here,” he added and then ended the call. “Well,” he began again, looking down at Angel’s direction; “…I have somewhere else to go to today. Just stay in touch, okay?!” He ended, walking down and out of the shop, and waving at her direction too. “See you again! Show me all those pictures you’ll take!” he added, disappearing into the side streets of Nimbasa, heading towards another rendezvous he had at the moment.
