The restaurant in which the former Champion now found himself just so happened to be the favorite of a certain young woman of Kodo, and just as he had found himself inside and eagerly awaiting his order, a young woman stood near a counter, having only ordered a large specialty tea after her morning run-- her morning run, which was, in fact, far too late in the day for her own tastes. Lovey sat at her heels, waiting as well, until the pokemon's eyes caught sight of something interesting sitting at one of the booths further inside.
At a soft tapping of a paw on the trainer's leg, she turned to look at what had caught the eevee's attention, blinking at the face she quickly recognized sitting at the table. Due to her years overseas, and her interests in all things socially popular--especially when said things involved people in powerful positions-- she immediately placed him as a League Elite. Alder, she thought.
A powerful League Elite that had been involved in the Pokecon catastrophe only a few days before. The media had turned almost rabid in their coverage of it, and his face had definitely been one of the few they had shown, alongside the other members of the panel that had been selected. She had been there, earlier in the day... People she knew... friends, perhaps...
As she lost herself in thought, her gaze stayed on the man, though she was hardly aware, for the most part, that she certainly looked like she was staring. Which she was, albeit mostly accidental.

Though getting lost in her thoughts, the girl quickly snapped back to the present as the older man in her line of sight waved to her. Her cheeks flushed bright, bright red as she realized what she had been doing, and she offered him an apologetic smile and a returning wave, just as the woman reappeared with her to go order.
She took the bag, with a word of thanks, then looked back again to Alder, taking a deep breath and a pause, deciding she couldn't just leave without at least apologizing for blankly staring at him. There were also questions that came to mind, though she wouldn't bother him with them here...perhaps they would reschedule the questioning panel or something...
With a shier smile, though with the easy confidence in meeting a high ranker person, she moved toward his booth, tucking a few loose hairs from her ponytail behind her ear. "Hello! League Champion Alder, right...?" she asked, giving him her best amiable smile. "Of Unova?"

She took his offered hand delicately to shake it, nodding. That done, she rubbed her free arm, shying again at his question, though her smile was bright. "I am, though I'm still rather new to it...my team and I have only been working together or a few months, seriously, at least..." She gave a little shrug. Better late than never, especially given the circumstances. Explaining that--the fact she was nearly twenty one and just now starting her Pokemon training-- to a former league champion was a bit embarrassing though. A lot, actually.
Lovey beamed up at the man, moving forward at his greeting to place her paws on the side ofthe bench of the booth, her tail waving calmly behind her as she strained upward to get a closer look, offered another content 'Eeeeev!' In reply.

Lovey, beyond content with how she was being treated, curled up, seeming to not care one bit that her trainer still stood at the side of the man's table.
Dove watched, feeling a little awkward to still just be standing, and checked over her shoulder for any sign of a waitress that might approach. She didn't want to encroach upon his breakfast time, but she was curious, and he seemed amiable...
"Oh, I do... She taught me a lot when I was smaller, but I feel that I've only really just begun... at least when it comes to Pokemon." And life in general, she thought to herself, though she refrained from voicing it. That really wasn't Alder's concern, anyway.
She paused a moment, then looked to the man again, with a question in her expression that was very much his concern, or so she deemed. "How are you? And the other three panelists...?" She rubbed her arm again, somewhat sheepish. "I heard about the convention... I was there earlier in the day, but we left before everything happened..."

He nodded and smiled at her words, glad that she had, indeed, learned from her Eevee. When she brought up the convention, it became clear to him that the conversation would likely continue for at least a while longer, so he extended his free hand towards the seat opposite him with a smile, "Why don't you sit?" His occupied hand continued to stroke the Eevee beside him as he pondered her questions briefly, debating how to answer and how much to say. "The other panelists and I were fine, as were most of the trainers in attendance. There were some minor injuries, as well as one or two moderate ones, but overall it wasn't nearly as bad as it could've been. It was deeply regrettable that it happened at all, though," he added, his tones growing more serious. "I'm glad you left earlier and weren't involved, though."
