Andrew adored pokemon - that much was safe to say. Talking to people was nerve wracking on a good day, and sometimes even impossible for him on a bad day - but on any day, he has never found a problem in interacting with pokemon. He isn't sure what, exactly, makes them so much easier to talk to - though something about them has always just clicked, and he's always adored them, no matter the shape they come in.
And no matter how dirty they are, either, it seemed.
After having arrived in Bass City, and having bought some proper supplies that he had been lacking before, Andrew had noted that he was starting to run a little low on cash. The idea of getting a job was a little nerve wracking - given that he'd have to talk to someone to get it, which his social anxiety made difficult - but... At the same time, it was astounding to see the different variety of jobs that a trainer could pick up in a given city.
And of all of those jobs, picking up a job to wash some pokemon seemed like a wonderful choice; minimal human interaction, and plenty of interaction with other pokemon. Certainly, they wouldn't exactly be happy pokemon - at least, unless he was assigned to a water type of some sort - but he still enjoyed having a chance to interact with pokemon, and he figured this would be a great way to practice being a groomer, too..! Thus, Andrew would be gathering together the supplies and tools he needed, to wash the large Arcanine that he was assigned to; a rather muddy looking one, at that. And as he got ready, he'd speak to the large canine all the while - softly and friendly.
"Hey there, buddy; how're you feeling? I imagine that a fire type like yourself doesn't enjoy getting wet - I know my Vulpix doesn't - so we'll try our best to get this done with as quickly and as pleasantly as possible. I just need you to be a good Arcanine for me, and cooperate the best you can; okay?" He'd begin - smiling over to the canine in a reassuring fashion. Working solo like this, Andrew felt relaxed enough to talk openly; explaining the process he had in mind to the Arcanine "We're gonna start by rinsing all that mud off of you, put in some nice smelling shampoo, rinse that out, and then dry you off. Then if you're feeling up to it, I'll give you a nice and relaxing brushing afterwards to get out any stubborn debris before the groomers take over; doesn't that sound nice?"
Once everything was gathered, Andrew would go for a hose - setting it low at first, and then slowly adjusting it up until it was at the perfect pressure to rinse the Arcanine off. "Alright; we're gonna start off with the rinsing." He'd speak, once he got the hose's pressure to where he wanted it "Hold still for me, okay buddy?"
