He was on the verge of becoming perfectly round in shape when Walter finally lifted a finger and scratched under his chin. Almost immediately he simmered down, cooing and visibly deflating.

Walter moved them over to the sitting room, putting their drinks down and sitting on the sofa. He placated Reed with a small piece of meat he had taken from the fridge, after asking the owl to perch ont he sofa so he could see Manaka easier. "You haven't met Reed, have you? He can be a fussy Pokemon."
