NOw for such a young man Leo here certainly seemed very considerate of all those around him, this would be what would cause Jean to continue to offer a smile of reassurance to the young man in order to ease whatever worries he would have. "And glad indeed you should be leo, if I was to think you were such then I would have to say the same about my own children and extended family since many are close in age to yourself. But do not worry yourself I will let you know if there is an isue." The older woman would reassure in a gentle manner before waving a hand almost as if dismissing the concerns as if they were nothing.
Now it would be from here that attention would be turned to the pair of pokemon, in the case of Uri the small Squirtle male would be watching the small fiery fox for a short time before glancing up to the older woman in a kindly yet quizical manner of which she would take this as to help him down from his seat moments before the Vulpix female would dash forth and 'tag' him. This would cause the water type to chuckle before making reat efforts to charge after her in a careful yet playful manner.
It were when the young man that was Leo would come to turn his attention to her and make his comments that Jean would certainly find herself agreeing with this sentiment whole hearrtedily, for there were indeed so many that would cause harm to others who trusted so easily. "Yes, sadly you are right - better to learn early than not. But sometimes it is better to learn the hard way depending on the situation, makes the lesson more memorable." She would agree softly moments before a soft sigh were to escape her before she focused upon the next query put to her.
"Well i was planning on going to the police headquarters - for nothing worrying so fear not - I have two sons who work there and one I fear has a bad habit of not eating properly when working" Jean explained

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 359 || TAG: Jean Kaitos | Leo couldn't help but laugh softly as Jean came to explain that he were of similar age to her children and as such, thinking he were a nuisance would mean that she thought the same of her children. "Well, I wouldn't want you thinking such things of your own children so I will take that" he chuckled, offering the woman a warm smile as she waved off his worries.
Ember meanwhile had successfully tagged Uri and was now making great efforts to escape from the water type who was attempting to get her back. Excited yips filled the room as she weaved in and out of empty tables before hiding behind the piano that stood in the corner of the room. Leo rolled his eyes before raising his cup to take another sip of his drink. "You know he watched you go over there Ember. You need to work on your hiding skills!" the teen would come to jokingly tease the Vulpix.
The teen could only nod in agreement to Jean's response in respect of the lessons that people would need to learn in life. "Absolutely, but I guess I would rather ensure she doesn't have to learn the hard way y'know?" He began as his eyes shifted to look at the small fire type once more. "She means the world to me and I would do anything to protect her!" he stated calmly but in a matter of fact tone of voice before shaking his head and smiling once more. "Nonetheless, you are not wrong!"
As the older lady began to explain her plans for her time in the city, Leo couldn't help but chuckle. "Well, it must be nice having two police officers for children! I bet they are very protective of you" he spoke softly, sipping once more from the cup. "I can appreciate the forgetting to eat though, I do that all the time, more so when I am engrossed in my music." the teen sighed rolling his eyes. "But hey, lucky for your children they have you looking out for them! You're a wonderful mother!" he chirped brightly offering the woman a kind smile. |

Needless to say Jean would not be thinking such negative things of her children - both her biological and 'adopted' children - in any way but at the same time what parent didn't think such things occasionally? It didn't make them bad parents, this would essentially what Jean would come to tell the young man. "Every parent occasionally thinks their children are a little annoying but not for long or all the time, it's just how life is. But I wouldn't dare think of one who I have only just met so anything I think of you will certainly be positive." Jean spoke in a kind and reassuring manner.
From here Jean would momentarily look away from the young man and towards the pair of small pokemon just as Uri seemed to chuckle at the young Vulpix tagged him then dashed off, of course the Squirtle would feign ignorance at the particular spot in which Ember would have hidden herself before the water type would begin moving through the jungle of table and chairs trying to 'find' her again much to the older woman's amusement. However it would be when Leo would make mention of his preferences regarding teaching his young Vulpix lessons but in a nicer way in comparison to the alternative seemed like a fair and understandable reasoning, it were probably just her unfortunate experience on the matter. "Yes, I can understand your desire to do such a thing - it's quite thoughtful and noble of you. But just remember that life is not always kind to anyone no matter how much you wish for such." With that would Jean seem to wave a hand as if dismissing the conversation for after all what were the point of dragging it on.
"Well they can be on occasion, but they also aren't so bad anymore though that is on account of the fact that they have been in a relationship for some time so their attention is elsewhere thankfully." Jean would come to chuckle in an amused manner after a time before shrugging a little in an almost dismissive way, from here would she simply listen in an understanding manner when Leo would relate to the situation when he were distracted which would get the older woman nodding in a sympathetic manner.
"Well I wouldn't say I was that wonderful, more a case of it saving my eldest son getting too embarressed by his partner barging into the police HQ to drag him home for meals. got to give him a break from the stares from his colleagues." Jean would find herself chuckling softly in admission.

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 318 || TAG: Jean Kaitos | Leo listened as the motherly woman began to explain how every parent may face some annoyance from their children at one stage or another. Pausing to consider the speech for a moment he thought about his own parents before chuckling slightly. "Well now you mention it... I guess you're right!" he responded, a warm smile painting his face.
As Jean turned to observe their respective pokemon, Leo shifted his gaze to do so too. Ember continued to hide behind the piano, peering out every now and then to watch Uri searching for her. Scowling slightly following Leo's comments she fire type tiptoed from her position behind the piano in an attempt to sneak around Uri without being seen to search for another place to hide, causing the teen to laugh softly before his attention was shifted back to Jean to continue their conversation.
The woman spoke of her views on the matter of protecting his pokemon from the evils of the world before waving it off as if to move the conversation onwards. The teen sighed slightly before chuckling and giving an affirmative nod in acknowledgement.
The woman soon went on to the topic of her children and how they were in a relationship and their attention had been shifted accordingly. Leo smirked slightly, "I wouldn't know that that's like. But good for them!" he spoke before raising his cup to take another sip.
Jean once again dismissed the compliment Leo had offered about her being a wonderful mother before explaining her reasonings behind her words, which caused the teen to laugh for a moment. "I can see why that would be embarrassing! Thankfully, I don't have anybody doing that in my life currently... Not that there would be anywhere to drag me to... I am but a traveller on the road after all!" he paused between his sentences before taking a deep breath, followed by another sip from his cup. |

For a while Jean would simple stay quiet for what seemed like an age as she lifted and cradled her drink in her hands while sipping at the drink within and continuing to observe the young man she were interacting with, the older woman would herself allow a soft smile to grace her features at hearing the thoughtful words that would escape him. Of course the young man couldn't truly understand what she meant but most likely as with most children - even when they were no longer 'children' themselves - but at the same time there were just something about kids and no matter how old they got they did certainly seem to understand in their own way even if there were little to no explanation for such.
Now it would not only be Leo who would find the mild over exaggeration of the water type's searching for Jean would find such a thing both sweet and amusing in equal measures and more so when Uri would seem to purposefully take a moment to turn to look in the opposite direction for a moment when noting Ember making efforts to relocate her choice of hiding spaces. Only when having allowed a sufficient amount of time to pass would Uri give the young Vulpix female the chance to remain hidden for a while longer before chuckling as he dared to make a beeline for where she was.
When Jean would come to take note of Leo's own response in regards to what she had said about her children and relationships and the like there would be a flash of guilt that would pass over the older woman's features for the longest of times before she would sigh and offer the young man a small and kindly smile. "Well I hope one day you do - there's bound to be someone special enough out there for you." Needless to say Jean would genuinely mean such a thing for the young man certainly seemed such a sweet individual.
Here Jean would pause herself in order to enjoy her own drink and listen to the younger man's laughter and comments before eventually coming to prop her head upon a hand for a time as her head tilted to one side for an age while contemplating what the young man had shared and the truthfulness behind such a thing - well, this Leo being a self confessed traveller would certainly be different entirely. "But almost sweet too - though your still young dear. There's plenty of time." She would add softly

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 245 || TAG: Jean Kaitos | The pair sat silent for a what felt like an age as each tended to their respective drinks. It certainly was nice to be able to relax for a short while. The journey he was setting out on was bound to introduce him to a multitude of different people, but he was thankful that one of the first was as nice as Jean was.
Continuing the attempt to evade Uri, Ember carefully weaved in and out of the chair legs, feeling pretty confident in her ability to do so. That was until, Uri came charging towards her before she had the chance to escape. Instead she simply braced herself for the inevitable tag coming her way from the squirtle.
"Well... You tried..." the teen rolled his eyes before chuckling softly.
Taking another sip from his cup, Leo's gaze shifted as the motherly figure began to speak of finding a special someone. The teen shrugged softly before letting loose a soft laugh. "It is what it is. I'm of the view that you should let it find you rather than looking for it!"
As the pair paused a while longer, Jean came to point out that Leo was indeed still young with plenty of time for things in life to change. The teen pondered her words for a moment before smiling softly. "I guess that's true! Who knows where we will be at any point in the future?" he mused slightly, raising the cup to his lips once more. |

And needless to say it would not only be Leo who would be currently enjoyed the company of the younger man and his equally young and small Vulpix, for while she may not typically be one to spend time with other people - more so ones that she hardly knew - strangely Jean did feel quite at ease in the company of young Leo though whether it were due to the fact that the young man were easy to converse with due to the fact he reminded her of her own children it were hard to tell. Whatever the reason may be Jean would simply allow herself to enjoy such for now and with it would include the surprisingly comfortable silence in which would come after a while, between this and observing the playing pokemon pair would be a surprisingly good match up.
Now in Uri's case the Squirtle male would allow a playful grin to form and fix itself upon the water types features - all the more so when he would get all the more closer to the fire type female - before Uri would find himself pausing mere inches from touching Ember before playfully and gently tapping at her while a soft chuckle also escaped him.
Meanwhile though Jean had allowed her mind to drift a little onto thinking on various things it would not be all too long before the older woman's focus would be tugged back to the present and towards Leo as he voiced his general out look on the whole prospect of finding someone - rather allowing things to just happen as life saw fit in it's own way. "That's actually a good way to go about it, especially if it leads to something unexpected yet pleasent experiance. Whatever happens I hope it suits you well." Jean would respond genuinely and honestly.
Now the boy's last comment would be the one that the older woman would find would resonate with herself most of all - for no one could truly know what the future held for them all and even if they had the faintest of ideas there were still the chance that such things could change due to certain descisions made and the like causing a ripple like effect that could open up other paths.
