There wasn't a great deal of dirt sticking to his fur, so it didn't take a horribly long time for him to finish his grooming, but the sylveon still kept his gaze focused on his reflection. He was truly the epitome of beauty, wasn't he? He was sure if his owner were here, or perhaps any of the past judges, she and all others would agree. A sight to behold.
Upon hearing his name on Timedancer's tongue, though, his focus was dragged away from the glass and set upon the gardervoir. A smile slipped easily to his lips and he offered a dainty nod. "Of course, love," Valentine cooed to her, however his smile soon faded as a rather grumpy umbreon came waltzing over to confront him. Words spit from his mouth like venom, and while the child certainly had a harsh tongue, Val could only stare with an invisible brow raised. Who did he think he was, yelling such profane things in his face?
Valentine returned the sneer and tipped his chin upward, straightening himself to make it easier to look down upon Adrien. "And what have you done for us aside from gripe and groan the whole journey? I don't see you providing for Eclipse." A soft blue paw raised and touched the show pokemon's chest as he continued. "Whereas I have been assisting our darling Timedancer hunt for those delicious berries and other luxuries rattatas like you have been taking for granted."
He stood then with his head held high, and with a small 'hmph,' the sylveon strode forward to meet with Timedancer. Not before, of course, attempting to flick Adrien's nose with his downy blue tail. "Where shall I start searching, miss?" Valentine purred. "I am not opposed to splitting off from these... heathens. Perhaps a shopping center is nearby?"
