Ann smiled and leaned forward to get a better look at the camera. "I'd like that. I'd love to see it if you ever do catch it on film."
She hadn't seen a true film camera in quite some time. It looked to be in very good condition, what little she knew about cameras, and it was obvious by the way Dan spoke about it that it was a very special treasure to him. She couldn't help smiling at a silly idea, though, and felt the urge to ask. "...How in the word do you keep it so clean? Don't you have a bunch of stage make-up in that same bag?"

Dan smiled and brought the bag onto the table, opening it up to reveal that everything was neat and tidy on an OCD level. All the make-up was in small containers in bigger containers, a spare change of clothing was neatly folded in the bottom, along with the latex supplements he used for the face and... body.
"I tend to keep things looking nice. If I can keep everything tidy, I'll know where it is when I have to grab for something specific

Ann hmm-ed slightly at the neatness. She wasn't entirely surprised by it, it made sense for someone that worked as quickly as Dan did. "...That's true."
She scooped the last few bites of her treat out of the dish, smiling more at the mix of syrup and melted ice cream. Setting the empty dish to the side, she said, "I suppose we should be getting back to those two by now; before Chris wakes up and starts pestering Tan."

"You're probably right" Dan agreed before paying for both of their meals, even tipping strongly. The waitress smiled as they left, returning to the dojo
Their two Pokemon were napping as Dan smiled, adding "I had a lot of fun today. We should do this again soon"

Ann smiled back before skipping ahead of him a few steps, heading towards the two Pokemon. She knew that if she left Chris to sleep all day, he'd be cranky tomorrow morning.
"Id like that," she told him.

Dan knew that if he let Tan continue to sleep...actually, that had no real negative side effects. That gave him smile as he approached Tan and rubbed his big stomach, the sleeping giant smiling in his sleep
"But now you have to go back to trying to catch me and I have to go back to running from you"

Ann paused her attempt at rouse her Pokemon; Chris took advantage of it, waddling drowsily to the middle of Tan's belly to plop back down out of reach.
She knew what he did was his own choice, and wouldn't hesitate to put Dan away if she caught him red-handed; but her conflicted feelings about the Rockets got in the way, especially while having one as a friend. This was why she usually stayed in the back room, sorting files instead of hunting them down like some of the more enthusiastic (more motivated) members of the force.
She offered him a smile, finally looking to him, and said in a light-hearted tone--implying it was a joke, "You could always surrender."

"I could one day. However, it is unlikely. And I'd only do it with the knowledge that doing so will not result in jail time. Maybe a change of sides. Then again, I do enjoy being a rocket quite a bit. It has flexible hours and fun attire"
Dan laughed a little, but let it simmer down as he also added
"You could join Rocket. I'd vouch for you and you could have a nice, chushy position where you don't have to go out and fight your old members"

Ann looked a little surprised. She hadn't expected a thought out answer like that. She shook her head slightly at the returned suggestion.
"With any sort of powerful or rare Pokemon in my team?" She gave a significant glance to where Chris was finally beginning to stir, yawning as he hopped down to rub her side happily. She had enough trouble at times, having a Pokemon nearly considered extinct. She patted him on the head as she continued. "I doubt I'd be allowed to keep them. ...Not that I'd really considered it, at all."
She had, if she were honest, considered it a long time ago; but that was before seeing what some of the Rockets were capable of.
"...I honestly don't think I could do it, even if I could keep them."

"Then don't. It's no problem with me. We're friends regardless"
Dan laughed and pointed towards her Togekiss and noted, probably to the Pokemon's happiness
"Besides, you and your team really gel, which is important. Strong Pokemon often come at the cost of emotional backlash, which is something even I'm against. People should love their Pokemon like their children, or work with them with the same respect for human beings. We shouldn't release them back into the wild, but we should be able to work with them as equals... yeah, I tossed that last bit in before Team Plasma came by to recruit... I couldn't wear that outfit"
A shiver of disgust rocked Dan, humerously, as he smiled back to Ann

Ann laugh at his reaction to the thought. Even she had to admit that Team Plasma was a bit... different, even considering the usual fair of organizations running around recently. She watched as Chris hopped back to the Snorlax and patted its side, before it chirruped back to her, ready to return to its ball.
Togekiss disappeared in the beam of red light, and Ann replaced the ball at her waist, just in time for her watch timer to go off. She turned it off, as she said, "I'm glad for that, you're a fun guy, Dan."

There was the rythemic beep of a watch from Dan as well as he leaned back against the wall. Duty called. He had to be in Celadon soon. He brought Tan back into his Pokeball before smiling to Ann and giving a short, gentlemenly bow before adding
"Until next time, my dear. I have to meet a man about some Pidgeys"
And with that, he was gone

Ann raised an eyebrow before shaking her head at the last statement, smiling. Her friend could be quite the character; it was easier not to wonder what he meant this time. She looked at the damaged area and shook her head one more time before heading out and back toward the Station.
