James pays for the pizza and thanks to the delivery guy along with giving him a generous tip. James then brought the pizza to the coffee table and goes to grab plates for them. "Well if it is a wild pokemon, I'll definitely talk them down... if it's Nastu... I'll let Mirajane do the scolding..." James not lying they're better at giving lectures to pokemon and animals then they would to students, so James will gladly leave the scolding to the school. Unless a student stole anything from James' shelter. Thats when James will be livid.
James looks over to hearing Scarlet's complaint and looks to see Crimison just enjoying the pile of toys. James couldnt help but chuckle seeing that was so adorable, then noticing Cookie looking over and gave a small mischiveious smile on her face. She then starts to run to the pile and smiles. "Tackle hug!" Cookie calls out and smiles as she dog piles onto Crimson and giggles a little in joy.
James goes back and taking theyre seat next to Pauline and places one of the plate in front of her. James opens the pizza box to let the strong smell of a pepperoni and extra cheese pizza and smiles. It was great and smiles in joy seeing it looks amazing, and grabs a silce and smiles seeing the long cheese pull. "Ah... the perfect pizza silce."

"For Mirajane's sanity, I hope it's not Natsu..." Pauline said, sitting up to place her glass down on the coffee tablet, not wanting to juggle between it and the pizza. Mirajane had been one of her classmates during her time at the academy, though the two hadn't been very close, after graduation and Mirajane's adoption of Natsu, they had gradually grown close enough to be friends.
Nowadays, though, the general chaos of the town had kept them from meeting up for a while, especially considering Natsu's status as a resident troublemaker.
Scarlet, upon seeing Cookie dogpile her sister, follow her example and jumped ontop the two of them. "Dogpile!" Scarlet laughed as Crimson yelped, wriggling to get out from under the other two Pokemon, pouting.
Pauline hummed in delight at the delicious smell, carefully taking a slice onto her plate, smiling how the cheese was practically perfect. "It really is. It smells so good!"

James nods in agreement, they had only meet Mirajane a couple of times. Mainly outside of work either at the bar or at the mall. James knew they are one of the nicest teachers from the school from what they saw of them and it was always felt bad whenever her kid would do something. James takes a bite of the pizza and hums in joy of the tasty warm pizza. "Yep! The best pizza in my opinion." James smiles and places the pizza down on theyre plate and glances over seeing Cookie and Scarlet had dogpile on and chuckles a bit.
"Be careful, I dont want you guys to get hurt even if your dogpiling on plush squeeky toys." James tells the three and was making sure they were playing carefully. The last thing they want to do is come home from vacation and then put a cast on someone before the end of the night.
Cookie looks over hearing James telling to be careful while dogpiling and looks over the Crimson. "Are you ok, Crimson?" Cookie making sure her friend is alright seeing her pouting a bit. Which did make her feel a bit guilty for surprise dogpiling her.

Pauline followed Jame's line of sight and chuckled at the little dogpile. "Girls, I hope you're playing nice and sharing."
"We are! We'll be careful, James!" Scarlet replied, settling down to lay down on her sister, earning a grunt from Crimson, who shot Scarlet a look. The two Growlithe pups often did a bit of sisterly quarreling at times, but it was very clear it wasn't usually in any negative way. To them, some playful rough-housing and dogpiling was just another way of showing affection.
"I'm fine, Cookie, if only this tubbie would get off!" Crimson barked, managing to push her sister off, who let out a fake dramatic gasp. "I'm not a tubbie!"

James nods in agreement, they had only meet Mirajane a couple of times. Mainly outside of work either at the bar or at the mall. James knew they are one of the nicest teachers from the school, from what James knew of. James will definitely have to give her a drink next time theyre at the black moon bar at the same time. James nods. "They say they are." James smiles glad to see theyre being careful and having fun. Then James takes another sip of theyre drink and smiles as they continue to watch the movie.
Cookie chuckles at her friends seeing theyre sisterly mockery. Cookie then grabs the toy she saw Scarlet playing with earlier and came up with an idea. "Bet you two cant take this toy back from me!" Cookie says playfully and then runs off with it in joy hoping this'll be a way for the sisters to come and chase her.

Pauline smiled. "That's good, I wouldn't want the girls to to accidentally hurt each other." Crimson and Scarlet were rather rambunctious, especially when they were playing with Cookie, so it was generally good to remind them a few times now and then to be careful with each other. Especially since the Growlithes could use fire magic, she didn't want anyone getting burnt.
Reassured the Pokemon were all playing nicely, Pauline turned her attention back to the movie, taking a bite of her pizza.
The twin Pokemon perked up and barked eagerly, chasing after the Eevee. "Betcha we can!"

James chuckles a bit, "Well at least the fabulous local vet is within a few feet from them to make sure that doesnt happen." James pointing to themselves and smiles pridefully as they called themself fabulous. Which they not gonna lie, they do think they are pretty fabulous. Though they do hope that they dont accidentally set any of the furniture on fire, but it wouldnt bethe first time James had to put out a fire in theyre apartment. James crings at the memory when they tried to make home made muffins for a brunch, and it ended with calling the firedeparment... and deciding to never try baking again.
Cookie smiles and kept running around having fun seeing both Growlithes sisters are chasing after her. It always made her happy to see shes . She was ready to turn back and try and jump over them to confuse them and continue the chasing game, and as she is pretty agile. She waits for them to get a bit closer and charges towards them and jumps right over them. "Ha! Cant catch me." Cookie chuckles a bit.

"True, very true!" Pauline laughed in agreement. "With such a fabulous vet around, no pet owner needs to worry in this town." James was both a wonderful vet and shelter-owner, so Pauline had no doubt the entire town was very lucky to have them.
Truthfully, she was also thankful they hadn't gone into baking. Considering their last attempt ending up requiring the fire department to get involved...yes, it was for the best that James became a vet.
The Growlithes slid to a stop after Cookie humped over them, scrambling to turn around and continue the chase. "Get back here!" Crimson barked, falling a bit behind her sister as Scarlet managed to get herself turned around quicker.

James chuckles a bit and takes a bite of the pizza in joy. Seeing how Pauline agreed on how fabulous of a vet they are. And James won't lie they were really good at their job, and it pays when you can communicate with animals. Especially seeing if the owner of the pet doesnt know whats wrong with theyre pet, James is able to ask the pet whats wrong. So it made it easier to help theyre patients if they can state the issue themselves. "Glad to hear that." James smiles and watches the movie again for a bit.
Cookie smiles in joy seeing shes keeping the chase going and she was so happy to do so. She chuckles a bit and smiles, "Come an catch guys!" Cookie calls out to Crimson and Scarlet in joy as she was running in fun. As she was so happy to have fun with them again.

Putting down her pizza for a moment, Pauline took a large sip from her glass, and sighed as she reclined on the couch. "I'm going to be honest, I definitely needed this, James. It's just so much has been happening in town, and it all piles up..."
Pauline loved her work as mayor, and did her best to handle everything to ensure it was fair for everyone, but the stress was definitely not fun. Better then being headmistress of the academy, though. Poor Isabelle had to deal with those students directly, and Pauline could only wonder at how she didn't have any white hairs yet.
Scarlet got a determined expression on her fact at Cookie's playful taunt, speeding enough to close some of the distance bewteen her and the Eevee, and eventually tackled her, causing the two of them to roll before they stopped in a small pile, upon which Crimson tripped and yelped as she landed on top of them.
"Caught...you..." Scarlet slurred, comical swirls replacing her eyes as she attempted to recover from the dizziness.

James looks over to Pauline and felt sympathetic for her. As they know she has to do a lot for the town as mayor, and James knows she doesn't get the credit she rightfully deserves. It made them happy to know that they were able to help their dear friend feel better and relaxed after such a long day. "Hey, I'm always glad to be there for you love. You know you can always call me when you are stressed and feel free to come by the shelter to just hide and escape for a few." James telling Pauline, they wanted to help their friend in any way they can.
"Oh and we can definitely hit the bar after work and hit happy hour. Though its good Shizuo has a limit for his customers though..." James chuckles a little nervously remembering the last time Pauline and them went to the bar and they both may have had one too many drinks. The last thing James remembers is waking up with a nasty hangover, in the park. In a police man uniform while was Pauline a tree in a jungle warrior costume. James can only imagine what must have happened that night for them.
Cookie was caught off guard and gasp seeing she got caught and was now tackled by Scarlet and they rolled over into each other with ended Crimson and Scarlet ending up on top fo her. She grumbles a bit annoyed and smiles a little. "Ok you win you two." the Eevee chuckles a little and smiles in joy seeing that was such a fun game.

Pauline smiled at James, grateful for their kindness and consideration. "I know, darling. I know I can always count on you to have my back." James was a dear, beloved friend of hers, and she wouldn't trade them for anything in the world.
Pauline chuckled sheepishly at the reminder of Shizuo's bar having a limit on drinks for customers. She wasn't quite sure where exactly she and James had gotten their costumes, but it probably wouldn't be wise for a repeat of that situation. Not to mention the hangover she had afterwards.
The Growlithe sisters grinned at each other, pleased by their victory, then scramble off of their friend, helping her stand up.

James smiles glad to hear that. It made them feel like such a good friend to hear Pauline say that. James always wants to make sure that both people, animals, and Pokemon felt heard and seen and safe. It was just the natural caretaker that's in their heart. James knew their grandparents would be proud of them. “Of course love, I'm always gonna be in your corner. After all, you were the first person I befriended here I believe.” James smiles at the mayor and takes a sip of theyre drink. They could never forget the day they moved into town was the best choice they ever made.
Cookie chuckles and gets up, "Thanks, so what do you two want to play now?" Cookie asking her friends to see what else they want to do for fun sense this is the first time they got to hang out all night in the first time in a while. Though she'll have to ask James if they can go play in the park some time. As the park has more opertunities.

Pauline hummed in thought. "I think you're right. You came to City Hall to talk about the shelter, and we just ended up talking so much besides that, didn't we?" She chuckled at the memories. It's hard to believe it's been so long since they first met.
Of course, the mayor hasn't once regretted putting her trust in James, and they've proven they were more then worthy more once then once over the years. It definitely helped that they could actually talk to the animals and get a better understanding of things.
Crimson tilted her head, scrunching her face up as she thought. "Hmmm...What do you wanna play, Scarlet?" The Growlithe asked her sister, who simply shrugged. While they were rambunctious and eager to play, one small problem with the Growlithe twins was that they were pretty much good with playing anything, considering their owner spoiled them so much.
It tended to be Cookie generally having to take the lead in suggestions, and thinking of games.
"Maybe hide and seek?" Scarlet suggested.

James nods remembering it the day now, "YES! That's it! I was staying at the inn just outside of town and I came to the town hall to see if I could buy the shelter. And after talking about the shelter, I then asked where you got your hat." James remembered the day now. They loved the fashion sense the mayor has as being around her helped them regain a love of fashion again. James had felt very conflicted about how they felt about fashion after serving their ties with their toxic parents. James shakes their head trying to forget about them as they are no longer in James' life.
"So glad I choose to move here." James smiles not regretting any of their choices. It was a great decision on their part and was even happier seeing Cookie had made friends here as well. But James wasnt surprised sense they knew Cookie could gain friends easily sense she had such a charming personality.
Cookie smiles and nods at the idea. "That sounds like a perfect idea Scarlet! Who goes first as the seeker?" Cookie tilts her head at her friends as she normally makes the suggestions but she wanted her friends to have a say in things as well.
