( Insert witty cut joke here! )
Alas, schooling was schooling and when she really thought about it, she didn't have anything to return to back in Hoenn anyway. At least not yet. One day that would probably all change -- inevitably, really, when she thought about it, but that day just hadn't come yet.
She'd gone to pay her respects to Giovanni, however, as she'd neglected to keep up with him. She had many things to thank him for and to remind him that she had not forgotten him. Dressed in the familiar ruffles, her expression was as neutral as it often was and she waited just inside the doorway, quiet and ever attentive.
Why yes, she could wait until his class had ended.

Giovanni's eyes followed the baby Kangaskhan to the visitor, and he smiled fondly when he saw her. "Ms. Voile! What a pleasant surprise." He walked up to the two, nodding, "I haven't seen you in a bit. How have you been?"
Reply
"You've my apologies for delaying in coming to see you," she admitted, a bit sheepishly as a tint of pink kissed her cheeks. "I seem to be doing well. You look as though you are, too. Are you enjoying your class thus far?"

He smiled more seeing the way she was with Mica, "She is quite taken with you, it seems. Did you miss Ms. Voile, Mica?" The baby Pokemon nodded, snuggling up to Voile more. Nidoqueen growled in greeting from where she lay curled up in the corner.

Well, she could, but there'd be no sense in it, she assumed.
She looked down to Mica when Giovanni addressed her and in a swift motion, brought her forehead to the kangaskhan's. There was a bonk that ensued and Voile smiled brightly, "I'll make sure to come around more then. How's that sound?"
Then she brought her attention onto Nidoqueen and without even uttering a sound, her expression softened, "And how are you?"
Reply
Mica cooed in agreement, and seemed to giggle when Voile bonked heads with her. "She seems to like that. I'm sure the others would like to see you more often as well." To say nothing of their owner.
As for Nidoqueen, "Doin' well, Ms. Voile. Been busy taking care of her, she's a handful. Between me and Nido and Kangaskhan and Vanvan, we got it taken care of, though!" she replied, stretching out a bit.

"Then I will have to rearrange my schedule a little bit. I'm afraid that right now, I haven't left myself with much open time. As usual, I'm overloading myself to keep busy. I should learn a bit of that moderation I preach so much," she murmured with a slight giggle. She really did love that Mica so much! It made her heart was to melt into this disgusting puddle that she could slip on and break all of her leafy limbs.
Then she nodded over to Nidoqueen thoughtfully, "I'm really glad to hear it. I hope you're taking good care of Giovanni, too. He needs all of the help he can gets, and likely not the kind of help he could get from ( ... )

That reminded him of something, "By the way, I am sparring with one of the other students, Silver, tomorrow at the stadium. It's open if you'd like to watch. It'll be my first time battling competively in awhile, and Sergio and Emmet are looking forward to it."
Nidoqueen chuckled -or the equivalent anyway-, nodding, "You have no idea how much help Vanvan needs sometimes. The kid's giving him trouble, that's for sure. Like a stubborn, redfurred Nidoran, that one."
Reply
"You have two?" she dumbly asked, effective distracted from the rest of the conversation. Even Nidoqueen had taken a backseat as Voile's worries became forefront in her mind.
Had she really grown so out of touch with people? She'd been trying so hard to avoid that. Since when had it been such a difficulty to do exactly that, though? Voile suddenly wanted to kick herself around the block a few times -- not that she knew what a block was, aside from those delicious Pokéblocks that she was craving something terrible.
"Really?" Her eyebrows lifted to him.
Reply
"Yes, he challenged me over the network; I haven't battled like this since I resigned as a gym leader, but I still believe I can hold my own. We'll find out for sure tomorrow, though I think Emmet will be more than enough for a few rounds. If not, Sergio and Kangaskhan more than likely will. Nidoqueen seems to want to sit this one out to stay with Mica and watch."

"Infants have an imprint mechanism, Professor. Most often -- more often than not -- the first one they see if the one who is defined as the maternal or paternal unit. Even if mothering duties are fulfilled, in the end, it's as you said. You found her. She'll likely be attached to you for life."
At least it was an educated guess. Voile couldn't say much about her own parents as she hadn't seen them in quite a long time, but she assumed she'd felt the same way any child had. She must have known from birth who her parents were and she had a difficult time thinking anyone else might have been different.

"Yes, Notte imprinted on me when I found him injured and took care of him, it seems. I suppose it is the same with her; I found her shortly after her mother had been fatally injured, so as I was the only one to care for her, I suppose the same thing happened. I cannot say I mind, though. I don't have a daughter, so she's become one, in a sense."
Actually he did have a daughter, but he was unaware of Rosa's existance. After all, he -or his wife- had not known of the pregnancy when he had left.
Of course, he still cared for the young lady in front of him like a daughter, regardless of her being a Gardevoir. He would need to catch up with her soon.
He scratched Mica on the head, and smiled when she cooed, "So, will you be staying for class, Ms. Voile?"
Reply
"Of course. Did you expect me to leave?" she asked with surprise as she finally released Mica.
