"message": "Genesis rose slowly from the ground upon the parchments summon. He looked outward at the cell, eyeing the guard who just stared back lazily. She groans and with a roll of her eyes, asks a simply question. *\"Again?\"*. And he just nods before disappearing in front of her. \n\nIt's instantaneous the moment he arrives beside Shadow. Genesis couldn't always pinpoint a persons location, but by beckoning him it was easier to arrive there. Their calls gave him a sense of direction as he traveled through the realm of light, appearing the moment he's needed. Genesis eyes his surroundings, recognizing the stable and forest surrounding it. He'd recalled the conversation Shadow had on the parchment, that of being near the forests. This made sense, hylians do not move as quickly afterall. \n\nOnce he's done eyeing the area, he steps out from behind the Shadow, eyeing him with mild curiousity. Though his expression is blank, it is clear Genesis is deep in thought. He did... Not know why the boy had called him this time. And this was without a request for glue or something similar. It seemed there was something he wished to be said more privately. And that was alright of course. Not everything needed to be handled in paper. \n\n\"Shadow.\" Genesis says suddenly, making the other aware of his arrival. \n\n||"

"message": "Naturally, the teen was pacing. He had just about a million different things running through his head considering. That was what he got for paying attention to that stupid paper thing after so long! \n\nYet... He'd definitely made friends. That much he could say. But this was the second time they were worked up into such a panic over a little conversation, they had to admit they were at a bit of a loss.\n\nWhen Genesis called for its attention, it jolted, shadowy hat shifting defensively before realizing who this was. \"You're as fast as ever.\" They shuffle their feet. \"Did I disrupt your stay in prison?\"\n\nThe teen huffed. Frankly, they weren't really sure *Why* Exactly they had called Genesis here yet. It just felt... Necessary. Like he needed support, but he didn't really trust the weird parchment for that. They'd had enough public vulnerability for one day.\n\n\"Weird question. Is it. Normal to be scared of the light?\" They pointed upward, though they were very evidently sitting under a tree and avoiding said sunlight. It's gaze shifted toward the stables, before tilting their head. \n\n\"Follow up. Do you think I could get a horse?\" \n\nA pause.\n\n\"I. That's a lot of random questions. Sorry.\"\n\n||"

"message": "He's! Answering the horse question first. Not because of any specific reason, it's just the fact this is *Literally* His special interest. Genesis is the reason the Links have adhd, okay? \n\n\"In Wild's era the horses at the stables belong to people. They are personal companions, it would be mean to take one.\" He pauses, eyeing the horses himself because he... Okay he wanted one too. \"If you want a horse you need to find one in the wild somewhere. They are usually near the stables, and you can bring them here to register their name and gain a saddle.\" Genesis had his arms behind his back, the way he stood was *Very* Formal. Despite his form, it was very evident he was not Hylian. Or... Whatever remnant of Hylian there was had long since left him. Despite this, the way his eyes watched the animals shows a sense of... Enjoyment. He really liked creatures. \n\nThere's a full minute of silence from him before he remembers Shadows original question. ~~ADHD~~, he turns away from the horses and faces the pacing boy- curiously watching him. Genesis could put names to feelings, sure, but he did not fully understand them. He'd long since forgotten use of them, heavenly bodies had no need for physical feeling. But from what he *Could* Insinuate, the boy was stressed. Genesis... Was not sure if he could offer ease. \n\n\"...The light.\" He says quietly, thinking himself as he looks above them. Genesis seemed to be looking *Beyond* The tree. \n\n\"I believe... Light is scarier than dark.\" He says, slowly. Genesis was not a man of many words, but he could immediately an elaboration was needed. \"...Darkness there's no telling what's there. It's the same as closing your eyes. Dark and shadow are like... Blankets. Comfortable, constant. They cover you and keep you safe from what you do not wish to see. The light is different, you cannot hide from what is there. It's a reminder of what you must face. There is no lying when all your troubles are... Illuminated for you.\" He pauses, finding his words again. \n—\n\n\"It's easier to succumb to darkness because it's comforting to stay there. Even in all the anguish and sadness and hurt it gives you, darkness is... Like still water. Comfortable to sit but after a while, it festers. It's a garden for insecurities if you do not know how to face them. The opposite is also true for the light. You need to have... Courage and strength to know what awaits you. Some days, being present there seems like an impossible canal you could never traverse. The fear of light is normal. It's comes with dwelling in it. But it is also that fear that strengthens you, forces you to keep going. Neither are inherently good or bad. They simply... Exist for when we need them. The darkness is comfortable and quiet for the days in which we cannot move, whereas the light helps you progress. It is the vision that reminds you where you are.\""

"message": "\"Okay but followup consideration. Can... I. Borrow them. And maybe return them maybe not?\" \n\nAt least they seemed thankful for the more lighthearted questions answer- there was definitely a hint of his usual troublesome personality shining through even just for a moment. \n\nAs he stands and listens to Genesis answer the other question, however, his pacing seems to halt. Yeah, that was a really good explanation of his life. It couldn't tell if that was because the hero knew so much about him, or if it was because he was speaking from personal experience.\n\n\"I've spent... My entire existence in the dark. My whole purpose was to destroy. To free the evil sorcerer, to serve Ganon. And when all was said and done, and I thought I had made a real friend, I felt like I owned the world. Like I could do anything- even beat Ganon himself. Then... You know what happened, I'm sure. Vio called me out on it. Said I was power hungry, that I'd do anything for more even if it meant betraying my allies. But I-\"\n\nIt shuffles again, huffing. \n\n\"I don't know. After the four got rid of me and I got revived again, Zelda and I had that talk. And it ended in sacrifice. But. I still worry sometimes. If there's more than one Ganon running around now, what if I get pulled back into the darkness? And... I was defeated by the light. I genuinely think it'll *Hurt* Me. And I look stupid, but I carry an umbrella around because of that.\"\n\nAnother pause, as they look toward the ground. \n\n\"So... It's... A balance thing...? I don't really know how to do that. I've been on my own for this long, taking hits from the angry members of the dark world. Then I found my freedom and I didn't *Want* To be the heroes shadow anymore. But I guess now I don't really know what I *Do* Want. And the idea of mortality... Scares me a bit. I feel vulnerable.\"\n\n||"

"message": "\"Alternatively, we can find a horse.\" Genesis replies. He is not going to stop the other if he decides to steal, but he felt the moral answer should be mentioned. Genesis did... Not feel like dealing with more screaming Hylians. Taking glue was one thing, but a believed companion was another. \n\nIt seems his words struck the boy in some way, so Genesis stands there, still and listening. It is a strange sight, the way he stands as though he doesn't need rest, the way his chest doesn't move because he doesn't need to breathe. He was so perfectly Hylian yet so strikingly *Dead* That he's presence alone could be considered an illusion. A fabrication of what *Should* Exist. \n\n\"You are... Not a proper Hylian. Reformed or not you are still a being of the dark. Though... Somethings changed. Perhaps your heart has shielded you. I... Do not know for certain. Though I know that my magic or that of Princesses or goddesses *Will* Harm you.\" Genesis would... Normally ask Hylia here. Garner the confirmation he needed to say the words that he was allowed to, more clues into an answer even he didn't fully understand. But... It had been radio silent since he'd arrived... From... *His* Love at least. The other Hylia was rather vocal, though... Hm. He did not want to process that yet. So! He's ignoring it. Ignoring it and letting the boy ramble on about his struggles, listening to every single word without question. \n\n\"Balance... Yes. Like night and day. Neither are good or bad, but in the end, people have lived and died in both sides of the coin. That does not mean either are dangerous.\" Balance was a good way to put it, he thought. Genesis was saving that for when he needed to explain this concept again. He *Always* Needed to explain this concept again it seemed. \n—\n\n\"...Mortality is terrifying because most do not know what lies at the end of it. You've been given more than anyone else is allowed. Even my own reincarnation, I could not carry the memories of my... True life with me. I could not adapt or grow from what I already knew. You have experience a glimpse of death. If you know what it's like, that is... More encouragement to live as *Yourself* For the first time, is it not?\""

"message": "\"Mm... Okay. Only because I somewhat landed you in jail with the whole glue thing. Although you were already arrested before then too.\" He huffs.\n\nThe magic *Will* Harm you.\n\nThe thought occurred to them, and they genuinely flinched. There's a pause of silence, before they laugh softly. \"Well... I'd rather it be told to me straight up, I guess. I don't think *You'd* Hurt me, despite how much of a pain I've been to you but-\" He shifts slightly again. \"Yeah. Okay. Still good to know.\"\n\n\"So I don't... Have to be evil, or whatever. Despite that being my entire existence. But what if I'm no good at being... Good, either? I mean I'm supposed to go face Vio after all this time and I've been avoiding it and talking with other people first because I don't even know *How* To go about all that. You were right on that paper- I worry what they'll think of me. Am I going to have to prove that I can be good?\"\n\n\"....\"\n\nHe thinks for a *Long* Moment.\n\n\"...I don't know what it means to live as myself. I've just been surviving all this time.\" He finally admits softly, gesturing with a hand at nothing in particular. \"While I was stuck in the dark world I followed the four around a lot. They didn't know I was there, though- but their lives are really all I know. Dying to save them was the one choice I learned to make for myself and it's been survival ever since as a consequence. Sure mortality is a foreign concept to me but so is just... Existing.\"\n\nThey drop both arms down to their sides, shoulders slumping. \n\n\"I don't really know *Who* I am.\"\n\n||"

"message": "\"If they ask you to prove how *Good* You are, then I would reevaluate those friendships.\" Genesis says simply, still listening to everything Shadow was saying. He in some senses, understands. Though he can't exactly feel the sympathy that comes with it. But he listens. \n\n\"I... Hm.\" Identity was not a question he thought he'd be answering. This seemed to be more... Of a teenager problem. Or perhaps those under influences they couldn't control. Maybe Genesis himself didn't have an answer beyond the duty he was given. He seems to *Actually* Think about this. Process it properly before he responded. \n\n\"...You are someone who loves mischief. You see... Fun and beauty in things others struggle too. If you are anything, you are optimism.\" Genesis states, taking a moment to reel back, illusionary muscles and joints relaxing more as he contemplated. \n\n\"...I did not believe you were someone who could change all those years ago. I have fought darkness unimaginable and versions of myself over and over to a constant. I believed you were one of those. But you... Surprised me. You changed my mind. As did Midna and those of the twilight realm. I did not think dark and light could ever mix. And yet, here we are. I was raised in an era of black and white, right and wrong, good versus *Evil.* But that is not the case anymore. Perfect good is impossible to achieve. Times have changed.

Not know what to say about the *Legend* Remark. His story was hardly remembered, long before an era of history. Genesis is not used to being regarded as a *Legend*. He'd always been a forgotten tale, and that was simply his destiny. In all honesty, it was not a good story either. The hero of the Skies is the one in the books for a reason. Still... Hm. There is a warm, pleasant, feeling within his chest. Strange. \n\n\"That is how it is being up here, in this realm. Scary at first... Then pleasant once you bask within it.

Supposedly, Vio had been searching for them all this time. Red at least seemed surprised to see him, Green... Well, Green had always been hard to read. Maybe they'd been taking things for granted, watching the four move on, but they'd moved on without him. It was all they really could do, though- he knew that now. There was just no way they'd be able to retrieve him from the dark world without risking danger. \n\nIt snapped out of its thoughts at the joke however, gasping. \"Genesis. Ghost man. Buddy.

More present.\" Genesis is thinking again for some time, everything with him seemed rather slow mannered. \n\n\"And... I'd honestly argue Shadow is more on the nose. I truly enjoy Mono. As for me, I was between the name *First* Or *Genesis.* That would have been on the nose. I much prefer the latter.\" He spoke truthfully, listening to shadow- Mono, and his new name reminded him a little bit of his own indecision. It was... Odd how similar the two were despite being from entirely different worlds. Though, at the next question, Genesis seems to... Blink in confusion. *A hug?* This was not something he expected. Nor something... He did often. Genesis could not remember the last time he had hugged someone. He, simply, was not alive. \n\nThere is some processing, almost like a computer trying to register a command it wasn't programmed for. Then, after a moment he nods. His duty is to assist the heroes, direct and guide them in their journeys. ~~or so he assumed.~~ if that meant a hug, which Hylians found m comfort in, then so be it. \n\n\"You may hug me, if you wish.\" \n\n||"

It takes him some time but, after some clear confusion, he kneels. \n\nGenesis is very knightly in the way he presents himself. Very noble, almost holy. His movements were each pre meditated, clearly with plenty thought. The hero did not often work from impulse, and it was clear, even long after death. So The best he can do is kneel, reaching the teenagers height, and leaning forward in way that can only be compared to a fighting dog lowering its guard. He was letting Mono hug him, despite not being able to quite initiate it himself. \n\nYes his form is solid, but what's felt is anything but living.

I broke the mirror specifically to help them out but that was my life force too so I died *Again* And then—\"\n\nThe teens ramblings abruptly cut off as he sat upright again, eyes shifting from a neutral gray to a red. \n\n\"I... Don't want to talk about how Ganons minions responded after that. When you can't exactly be permanently killed so long as the heroes you shadow are also still around, and an entire group of evil people **Hate** You-\"\n\nIt spits the word out, before its shoulders slump. \n\n\"Er.

Impa coughed and sputtered as she forced herself up to the surface, shaking water out of her eyes. What in the *World* Had...?\n\nThe glittering blue and silver of Zora's Domain greeted her, but there were, unfortunately, no Zora around...

Redd braced himself, and leaped off the edge, diving into the water with another large *Splash!* Like a dart, he sped through the waters, and surfaced near Impa- leveling a piercing stare at her with emerald green eyes.

It was not like he had a necessarily deep bond with any pokémon, even less even liked their companionship. Sure, Hoopa had been sufferable, though he had not seen that wretched thing for some time now. Perhaps it went and left the island after arrival, maybe it was trying to play a few pranks on him, who knew. Though what he did know was that he truly enjoyed the calm atmosphere. For such a weather, Lear did not wear his signature outfit, more so something more basic, and his hair was not styled but instead put into a bun with two strands being left out at the front.\nDespite that, he kept the glasses, he wouldn't survive without them.\n\nThe sound of the waves hitting against he beach was somewhat satisfying, the hissing of the foam that got brought up by the sea as it was pulled back into the dark blue.. Truly wonderful. However, from far away someone seemed to yell after a pokémon, and for some reason, that pokémon was headed directly towards the prince! What an imbecile creature! \n\nThe greyish haired man scooted aside as the pokémon almost ran against him, trying to not get in contact with what seemed to be a vulpix. Soon afterwards though, a man seemed to rush after it. Must be the trainer, who looked just as idiotic and useless as his pokémon. He did not look like he would live here, so what was he doing here? \n» What a nuisance. Is that your pokémon? «"

He was tempted to apologize for the pokemon's behavior- until the prince called it a nuisance.\n\n\"Did someone take a fat leak in yer' tighties? Vulpix ran past ya, didn't even scorch ye damn legs- what's the fuss about?\"\n\nFeeling the telltale warmth of an attack brewing in vulpix's gut, Bill swiftly turned his back on Lear to avoid getting the man from being roasted by an anger-boosted Flamethrower, \"Arceus! Now look what you did- don't cha know tha' Pokemon can understand words???\". After that little tantrum, the researcher faced him again with a sigh, \"Gosh, they told me this place was for th' bigwigs- but judging how little some trainers actually care, I wasn't expecting to meet someone real soon. What'd you do to land a place in here 'nyways?\"\n\nBill initially assumed that he was some sort of competitive trainer who only cared for the mathematical side of Pokemon and battles, but those types had at least one scary Pokemon out; or even their entire team on their belt at all times. Plus, Bill doesn't recognize his face from any of the pre-existing leagues; was it from a region so far away that he didn't know of it? Or perhaps Lear was an authority figure similar to that of a Pokemon Association member- either way, the researcher had zero good experiences with either type."

Not even Lear would have handled pokémon like that, but he assumed that perhaps this man knew more, and Lear was not judging this either way. Though, a Vulpix at a beach was less smart in the princes eyes, considering that it was a fire-type, and the ocean was not necessarily a safe thing for that then.\nWhen the two mens eyes met, Lear crossed his arms, leaning a little to the left.\n» I'm just saying! If you let that thing run around this beach, at least put a leash on. It'll be a safety hazard for both people and your vulpix else. «\nA scoff, Lear rolling his eyes.\n\nJust as he left that snarky remark, his eyes widened as the Vulpix readied itself to actually attack, to his relief however Bill turned away. \n» Pfft! «\nNot even a thanks for kind of saving him. The short man really had no manners, despite being royalty. \n» You talk funny. «\nThis was Lears first reply, unrelated to any of the words that Bill said, but more just directly roasting the way he spoke overall. \n» And well, I was invited! Probably because I had a sync-bond with a very strong pokémon— and of course! I am the creator of the Pasio Region and the PML! «\nHe spoke in a tone that immediately gave away that he was bragging about all of this. Though, of course, Lear was still correct about these things. In all honesty, he had no idea were Hoopa was though, nor did he participate in fights here often in the first place. \n\nWhile seemingly strong, Lear only had one pokéball on him, even then— that was hidden in his pocket, and if he would have taken it out, it'd be a pretty average Krookodile that his father had given him so that he could participate in battles if he had to, just in case Hoopa would not appear. And that seemed to be the case for now, which was a real pity, as Lear was convinced that with the help of that tool, he could have wiped out entire teams in one go! That's how certain he was about himself— though,\n\nLear had no idea about actual technics in battles. He knew a few, but it had never been a major point for him."

"message": "Oh, Rika looked too much into it! How Irene seems to emit enigma made her thought it was something more deep. \"You're right about that,\" Rika confirmed with the notion about simply sightseeing when going somewhere new. She's assuming the singer was new here. While Rika herself is new—a month new, really—she already met a few people here and there. Already went to places. But, there's still more to see. \"Stargazing? Sounds lovely.\" Rika puts her head in her arms that are propped up by her knees in her sitting position, keeping her crimson eyes locked on Irene who's gotten up and cradling the Azuril in her bosom like a mother would. \"Just lovely. If you don't mind, kiddo, I have a place that sounds right for the job.\" It was a suggestion not needed to take. Still, it's up there. However, before she could say, the reminder of the lost Azurill was brought up.\n\nAgreeing that it should be reunited with its mother as soon as possible, Rika gets up, stretching herself with her arms above her head. The bits of sand stuck onto the Azurill's bottom can be guessed that its kin was someplace down there. It was a good call. \"Rika's coming~\" She walks after Irene who was ahead of her before matching in step with the brunette. Now that the two of them are in their full length standing up, a glance from the taller green haired lady causes her to pat Irene's head once before leading the way. \"Lessgo.\"\n\n`The beach`\n\nOnce again, Rika keeps note of how oxfords aren't fitted for the sand, as each step sunk in, and bits of the minerals would go in with her socks. Though, she didn't pay it too much mind, going back to the mysterious Irene next to her while keeping eyes peel for an Azumarill or Marill at the least. \"I didn't get your occupation. Heard this island invites only the best.\" And she laughs it off. \"I'm flattered 'cause I know I've much to learn still. But-\" Her shoulders go up and down in a shrug, her hands kept in her pockets. Her face turns south toward the ocean again a\n\nNd the hand in her pocket fiddles with a Pokéball, wondering if Cloddy her Clodsire would like a splash. \"I can hold up to my title.\" Her gaze reverts back to Irene. \"Somehow, I feel like you're an astronaut.\" And this was *A joke,* But her expression is so serious that it can be hard to tell if she believes so or *Hopes* So.\n\nAzurill, the bundle ball of energy, jumps from Irene's arms again, bounding up to a couple Krabby that was spewing bubbles into the air. They carry with the breeze which has the baby Pokémon playing with it, causing Rika to stop and watch."

"message": "And my! Rika had assumed correctly, it hadn't even been a few days since she'd first set foot into the island. Heck, the fact that she was invited based on her accomplishments both as a Mt. Battlemaster AND being one heck of a musician dumbfounded the brunette. She was well aware of the air of mystery that loomed around her, and simply owned up to the fact that this was her identity. The kiddo comment followed by their suggestion merely piqued her interest yet again as she raised a single brow. With a one sided shrug, Irene tilted her head briefly as her thoughts were preoccupied elsewhere upon being patted, when was the last time had done it to her? It was a nice change of pace, if anything. Though the change in demeanor only lasted for a moment, the musician would revert back to her usual self.\n\n\"Kiddo eh~? That's something I haven't heard in a long time.\" Irene kept that purposefully vague with one arm still cradling the bubbly Azurill, she'd use her free hand to cover her mouth in a feeble attempt to contain her laughter before her lips formed a rather tight lipped smile, an enigmatic one to be sure. Did she really look that young? It's quite flattering in all honesty! There was a hint of smugness in the mannerism by which she retorted back, and with raised eyebrows and a slightly tucked chin, she followed up. \"I'd be lying if I said you didn't have my full, undivided attention now. If you've got somewhere that's more suited, then I'll have you take me there, and I won't be taking no for an answer.~ 𝅘𝅥𝅮\" Though playful in her disposition, her tone of voice was somewhat assertive.\n\n-\n\nWith the green-haired aldean standing to their full towering height in comparison, her other arm reverted back to its previous position to keep hold of the water type, careful so as to not hold them too tightly to the point where it's uncomfortable. Her fixed gaze now follows along Rika's each and every move as the much taller of the pair lead the way down, past the steep cliffs and towards the sandy beach! Moving along in a similar pace in a leisurely manner before their inevitable arrival.\n\n`The beach!`\n\nWith the bright, shining star known as the scorching sun rising further up into the sky and casting its blinding light upon the pair, the musician would take a moment to take in the new biome around her. Her shoes began to slowly sink into the damp sand while her eyes feasted upon the small, harmless waves crashing against the shore just a bit south from where they stood. The sea breeze playing with her hair as she slowly breathed in the salty air! Though there were no beach shops and the like set up, and the denizens of this particular place was filled with just Pokémon. With her shoulders now back, and her chin was up, she enjoyed this momentary bliss until Rika began talking once again. Her occupation? She intently listened as the ground-type specialist decided to opt for the humbler approach. Somehow, it was more heartwarming seeing others act like that. Opting to stay quiet up to the point where Rika's gaze met her own, and upon listening to their initial guess, the brunette figured that it would've been more fun to keep the guessing game going. Cocking her head in Rika's general direction, she would waggle her eyebrows relentlessly and stick her tongue out thereafter, completely making fun of them. An astronaut? Her? It's laughable!\n\n-\n\n\"Bzzzzzzt!\" Imitating a buzzer, her grip on the Azurill lightened up even more. Heck, she even resisted to open up her arms to jokingly taunt her newfound companion, judging by how serious they looked, Irene figured she ought to nudge the elite four member in the right direction. But nah, this was more fun.\n\n\"A little off the mark there!\" The musician exclaimed before heartily bellowing out. \"I don't think I'm built for that sort of thing anyways! You've got to be a little taller and stockier to dance with the stars, wouldn't you agree?\" As she said that however, the water-type suddenly jumped from her clutches and headed towards the Krabbies! Remembering her objective of being her in the first place to find its mother, she'd concoct a fun little scheme. A contest of some sorts! Fixing her gaze onto the gargantuan boulder just a few minutes of walking away, she'd begin to set the ground rules. \n\n\"Say, care a little wager?\" Her gaze immediately turned to Rika's crimson orbs, maintaining direct contact. \"If you win, I'll tell you what it is I do for a living. If **I** Win, you'll take to that place you mentioned earlier when we were at the cliffs! The objective? Simple! Whoever finds this little fella's parents wins! Easy enough, right 'kiddo'?\" Rubbing the nape of her neck for a brief moment before taking a pose somewhat akin to a cowboy, each of her thumbs found their way atop where her waistband would be, her face showed nothing but sheer confidence that she was going to win this. After all, the brunette knows something that the ground specialist probably doesn't. Only the most astute of observers would pick up on what had just dawned to the musician at this very moment. Was Rika as keen? Irene didn't know nor care, but this should prove to be entertaining enough for both of them."

Taller and stockier, you say?\" Rika has her own two cents on that, her jest was going to go on about how *Short* People can get stretched thanks to space and it's lack of gravity. But by the quick pace of the other, they were moved onto a *Game.* The deal seemed too much in Rika's favor. It's not like the area of suggestion for stargazing was a secret. However, having to place a wager simply just to find Irene's occupation is both interesting and endearing. \"Sound's a pla-\" What's that? The kiddo called *Her* A kiddo? The Paldean elite four member couldn't take it any longer. She guffawed, her voice ringing throughout the whole expansive area, enough to make Azurill turns its gaze and for the Krabbies to stop their bubble blowing for a second.\n\n\"You've spunk!\" And she takes note of Irene glimpsing at the protrusion of a crag over yonder. Usually those that wants to play a game, while placing a bet, have the advantage of what to do already. Unfortunately for the other, Rika caught wind of her plans of scaling that terrain and gaining a Pidgey-wide view from it. At least, that was her assumption. Who knows? Maybe that glance was a trickery, and she had something else unexpected in her mind. Still, Rika makes no gesture aside from putting her hands in her pockets, her shoulders back and lax as her half-lidded eyes took in the singer in front of her. \"With deals like that, I wouldn't mind whether I lose or not, since we'll by finding lil' Azurill's kin anyway. How 'bout adding an edge to it? Whoever wins has to treat the other to the most expensive dinner here.\" She winks with a cock of her head. \"Along with me telling you *The place*, or your 'CIA' job, o'course.\"\n\nMeanwhile, Rika already has a plan herself on how to find Azurill's family. She's not much a Marill or Azumarill pro, but\n\nShe does know that both Pokémon has great hearing since both has big ears. If they heard their baby's voice, maybe that'll bring them toward its direction. And, the possibility they were hunting for food in the ocean could be the reason the baby Pokémon got lost in the first place, being that the waves are ferocious and crashing on the cliff. So, while Irene could be running to that rock for a lookout, Rika would take that time to use her observations and knowledge. \"Ready?\" At this, Rika goes over to Azurill and lifts the Pokémon in her arms. It looked mystified at first, but the ground-type specialist's mellow smile has it smiling too."

"message": "You've spunk, eh? Seeing the bewilderment upon the elite four's face served as the perfect appetizer to the upcoming, metaphorical meal. Although, that aforementioned metaphorical meal was about to become literal in every sense of the word at the ground type-specialist's proposition. While SAT-LUN sat upon a ludicrous amount of cash in terms of credit, was she willing to spend some of it on the much taller, green haired trainer should she, hypothetically, lose?\n\nAbsolutely! Irene enjoyed Rika's company, despite the fact they'd only just met.\n\n\"That's perfectly fine by me, I'm just afraid your wallet wouldn't be able to handle it.\" Clasping her hands behind her back, the once 'badass' pose she had was gone, and her expression seemed to have softened, a curious glint can be seen from her eyes as the musician kept teasing the elite four member. \"I'm quite the glutton you know.\" With her usual delivery, she hoped that Rika would ponder about how truthful she was as she shifted from one foot to another, slowly making her approach until Irene was all up in Rika's personal space upon them picking up the baby Azurill. Though the wink was rather adorable, or so Irene would come to find it, she kept the energetic vibe of their conversation going. If it was some other maiden, they'd probably melt right now. \"And besides, the CIA, Interpol or whatever you want to call it aren't quite up to my standards.\" An obvious jest, but it's all for fun and games!\n\n-\n\nTaking a few steps ahead of Rika, and with a glance over her shoulder, the musician tipped her hat with one hand, hiding a meticulous intent behind her gaze.\n\n\"Ready!\"\n\nWith that said, Irene would immediately head towards the massive boulder, demonstrating surprising lithe as she jumped from one rock to another before standing atop its rocky surface. Clearly, she was used to this.\n\n-\n\nIndeed, it was just as Rika had suspected. The brunette's vision caught the sight of a rather ferocious looking Crawdaunt terrorizing a couple of blue mice she sought after, with one single injured Azumarill standing in front of the pack, or was it school? Group? The musician didn't bother to figure out the correct term, semantics and all. Nonetheless, she knew she had to act now and so immediately rushed to Azumarill's aid. Chalking it up to just Pokémon being territorial wasn't going to cut it one bit. Within about a minute or so, the former Mt. Battlemaster had arrived, standing between the two water-types before Rika had even arrived. Her once vibrant aura that she'd exuded turned into something entirely different, something much more terrifying. An air of extravagance and strength seemed to surround her as soon as she turned to face the Crawdaunt. The brunette's expression was that of sheer disappointment as she jutted her chin, squinting her eyes while directly staring down the territorial water/dark hybrid, not even looking back to check up on the Marills and Azumarill behind her.\n\n\"You look like you've got nothing better to do.\" Irene's tone of voice was nothing short of threatening, prompting the Crawdaunt to grow even more violent, bringing its pincers closer to the musician. Yet, she remained unfazed. \"Mind scuttling elsewhere? You're ruining a family reunion here.\" The tendencies of being the former Mt. Battlemaster still remained rooted in her personality, as best as she tried to keep it under lock and key.\n\nIt wasn't a question that she posed, it was an order. And that provoked the wild Pokémon to strike after originally shrinking from fear, pinching its pincers and unleashing a loud battle cry as they'd begun to glow. Although Irene could've just unleashed Snorlax, her beloved Snores, right then and there.\n\nSomehow, Irene knew everything will be just fine.- She was accustomed to danger ever since setting foot in Orre, this was nothing."

Surely, she had enough to spend on a meal but it depends how *Expensive* It's going to be. Rika wasn't scared to splurge since she barely did it herself, but if it's going to be the cost of her limb- no thank you. Although, may it be provocation on her part or not, it had Rika wondering if this female near her has a high paying job herself. \"Ha! Well, you'll pay for your words, since you'll be eating them!\" It's not often Rika quipped so directly aside from her suave passive aggressiveness, but she has the feeling the brunette can handle it. \n\n\n...\n\nAs soon as the word of confirmation left Irene's mouth, Rika didn't even have the time to *Blink* Before the girl had gone and scale that crag. \"Wha—\" It took another wasted second more when she realized her mouth was near agaped from the speed of the singer, before collecting her cool and glancing at the ocean beside her, admittedly in desperate determination of defeating her opponent in her own game. But in her attempt to avert her gaze, a few blue colored Pokémon in the distance caught her attention. It was almost hard to distinguish, since smaller crags beside them hidden them from view, but they might as definitely be the missing Azurill's parents! \"Found—\" Rika started to shout before choking back the rest. What looked like a crag at first had seemingly smacked one blue Pokémon of the group to the sand. *Oh no.* It proved more so that these are the Azurill's kin, as the baby Pokémon cried from the sight, wriggling from the shock Rika's hold and bouncing quickly to its family's aid.\n\nThe ground-type specialist yelped when she realized before running after and scooping the baby Pokémon back in her arms in safe embrace. She was going to notify Irene, looking back up that tall crag before noticing she has vanished. Looking back toward the trouble, the brunette was already *There*, standing like a hero with herself ou\n\nT to barricade any attacks that may continue toward **Azumarill** And its pack's way. It was a bold move but one without Rika assuming too reckless especially since the **Crawdaunt** Appeared aggressive. Its pincers glowed like light sticks as aqua laced it, having Rika predict the move \"Crab Hammer,\" So she brought out her partner just in time as the wild Pokémon swung down its claw. \"Cloddy, assistance!\" In a flash, her ace Pokémon, Clodsire appeared in front of Irene and ate up the attack without a flinch—thanks to its ability Water Absorb. \"I admire your bravery,\" Rika breathed, as she skid herself to a stop, the sand kicking up as some sort of Sand Attack toward Crawdaunt, blinding it a little. \"-but I can't allow a cute girl like yourself get hurt in front of me~♪\"\n\n*Oh if only she actually saw Irene. That aura alone would've made Rika fall in love with how epic she* Emitted.\n\n\"Bring them to safety, will you?\" She winked, even though she didn't look back at the singer. \"I'll calm Crawdaunt down.\" Clodsire brought up a \"Protect\" As the wild Pokémon started banging with both claws. Azurill have been let down on the sand, and it hopped its way toward the hurt Azumarill, two Marill, and Irene. Rika has no intention to hurt Crawdaunt even if it threw the first attack. Maybe it *Was* Territorial. So, she has other plans. \"*Hmm...*\" When Rika finally felt the air behind her, her smirk widen and she wanted even more to show herself off. There's that tingling on the back of the neck, that traveled down her spine. It was as if the ground-type specialist herself was provoked. \"*There's impressive strength in you, kiddo,*\" She thought. Just then, Clodsire's Protect breaks."

Alas, there was no time to quip back, not when victory is in her inevitable sight.\n\n...\n\nBack to the present.\n\nWith the musician immediately stepping back just milliseconds before the Crawdaunt had launched its signature move, an instantaneous, brown flash appeared before her eyes in the form of the rounded, amphibious Pokémon that belonged to the elite four. With her vision obscured, her hazel orbs could no longer come in contact with the Crawdaunt's own fierce gaze as Clodsire absorbed the blow with relative ease. Ah, so that was the ability of the strange Pokémon that used its body to protect her. It was convenient to say the least, and being right on the money put her in a much better mood than she was just prior to Rika's dynamic entry. The once terrifying aura that the musician had bore immediately dissipated upon witnessing the ground type specialist's ponytail flailing upon her arrival, the sand attack causing Crawdaunt to be in a frenzied state. With her lips now forming a subtle half-smirk, Irene's eyes remained locked onto Rika's back before moving onto the swamp knight's broader shoulders. Perhaps being, or acting like a damsel in distress might not be so bad after all. A little roleplay is due, that's for sure. Her heart would be fluttering right now at just how cool Rika would've looked at the moment, especially with the cute comment, if it weren't for the fact that she could've handled the situation all by her lonesome. Nevertheless, the help was appreciated and being the one protected was quite refreshing.\n\n—\n\n\"You never told me you were a knight in shining armor as well.~ ♡ You really are multi-faceted, huh?\" It was a rhetorical question, Irene made it clear that she was still willing to tease the elite four member, indicating that she's safe now thanks to her efforts.\n\nThough Rika didn't look back, Irene would clasp both her hands behind her back once more, bouncing in her steps as she turned to face the pack of Marills, the Azurill that was by her leg in an absolute panicked state and the injured, brave Azumarill that tried its hardest to protect them, her half-smirk turned into a sincere smile to calm the involved parties that she was meant to guide. After all, Irene was planning on fully heeding her hero's clear instructions. It was high time to seize control of the situation and round up the blue mice in a supporting role despite the chaos behind her!\n—\n\n\"Alright little ones!\" She called out to the water-types around her, placing both her hands on her chest, taking a deep breath. \"What do you say we all give them some space and watch how this all unfolds?\" They didn't need much persuasion, given how enamored they were with either her star necklace or with the fact that the musician had stepped in to defend them at that moment. They were simply indebted to her, besides they couldn't detect any malice behind her words. Rubbing her hands together, her eyes would fall onto the baby water type as it began shaking, obviously in a panicky state. However, Irene would bend down ever so slightly, giving it a gentle pat before swinging her arms around and walking along just a few feet away with the pack closely following behind the musician near the next crag which was just a little ways off. Just safe enough for Irene to protect the pack should the need arise, and close enough to get a first class seat to the action. Sitting down, the musician would cross her legs with the injured Azumarill now sitting on her lap and the baby water-type close to her side, her gaze fixated on the barrier Clodsire had put up that was absolutely shattered by the Crawdaunt's powerful attack.\n\n—\n\nIn turn, a rather menacing looking Gengar would emerge with half its body submerged in its trainers shadow, throwing all the water types in momentary fear before the musician rested her chin atop the evolved water-type's head. \"Simmer down now Spooks, we're just getting to the good part.\" With those words alone, the ghost type would dive back into the musician's shadow, calming the water-types around her. \"Did I scare ya'll~? Sorry sorry! I'll be _really_ quiet.\" Placing a finger on her lips, Irene would shush herself as she continued observing, trying to piece together just how exactly this will end. Needless to say, there are countless outcomes, which one would Rika go for she wondered? \n\n\"Show me what you got, kiddo . . .\" The musician muttered as the feeling of excitement Irene felt took over her entire mind. It was truly indescribable the fun she was having! What sort of bag of tricks will the ground-type specialist show off? Her curiosity was piqued yet again."

"message": "Once Irene and the rest of them were at a safe distance, it was on time too, as the Protect from Clodsire broke down. Luckily, the barrage of Clawdaunt's claws wasn't a specific move per se, so Clodsire was barely scratched besides closing its eyes in reaction. This was a water-type opponent for them, with Rika's team mostly consisting of ground-types. But that doesn't discourage her. It's common to get figured out, despite the elite four battles happening in a building that is more or less hidden from the outside eye. Her love of Clodsire itself is probably the dead get away. So, with challengers coming in with type advantages, Rika had to focus on finessing.\n\nWhile the wild Pokémon is busy with Clodsire, Donphan was sent out, assisting with a \"Stone Edge.\" Pillars of rock shoot up from the sand in seemingly out of nowhere when the elephant Pokémon stomped down, not hitting Crawdaunt but surrounding it in what appeared like an organic cage. The Crawdaunt was surprised at first, before regaining back it's aggressive state, already hammering down on the the stone ledges with it flurry of Crab Hammer. Watching for a second, Rika observed the nature of the wild Pokémon. If it's the territory that it's protecting, it's being far too desperate—ruthless even. \"Look, that's it. We got what we came for, so we *Could* Just back up,\" Rika declared, her gaze boring down into Crawdaunt, it stopping for a second to glare back. Then, it gave some sort of battle cry before holding up its giant claws, swinging them to and fro as if dancing. Seeing how the opponent Pokémon was holding poise, she assumed it was going for a Sword Dance. That theory is proven more when a Crab Hammer broke through its stone prison in one smack afterwards. Scuttling forward, Crawdaunt came to strike down on its most recent enemy: Donphan.\n\nBut as it raised it claw above Rika's Pokémon, another one of her's was thrown out—high in the air actually. \"Whiscash, a Blizzard, please?\" Out of water, the wa\n\nTer/ground-type was able to spit some icicles out in Crawdaunt's direction, freezing its pincers and making the Pokémon imbalanced from it. Wide eyes came from it a moment before Crawdaunt fell on its back and Whiscash was withdrawn in his Pokéball before he could hit the ground. Just as, in a quick transition, a pit formed beneath the wild Pokémon, thanks to Clodsire's use of Earthquake. Still confused and clambering about it's situation, Crawdaunt tried to get up before it suddenly got blindsided by a tornado of sand thanks to Dugtrio's Sandstorm, Rika's fourth Pokémon who have been sent out.\n\nThey're at the finishing touch—Rika's plan from the start. Her fifth and final Pokémon is summoned out, a Camerupt, who used Yawn toward the flailing Crawdaunt. A pink little bubble lulled toward the opposing Pokémon who's stuck struggling in one place. And just as soon as that bubble touched Crawdaunt and it popped, the big orange Pokémon flinched still, before yawning itself. It's movements were slower and lazier, eventually leading it to pass out, face in the sand. The Sandstorm around it was still raging, burying it in the hole that was created for it. Rika knew this isn't bad for the Pokémon since it either slept in sand to avoid heat and to avoid other predators anyway. So if anything, this was a safe haven for the Pokémon to *Chill* Out.\n\nTurning back toward where Irene and the Azurill family line are, with her ponytail trailing after her like a tail, she bowed like a gentleman, gloved hand at her chest and the other one hiding behind her back. Her Pokémon who's out with her (Clodsire, Donphan, Dugtrio, and Camerupt) also turned around to face whom they fought for, staring ahead with confident smiles and self pats to themselves.\n\nRika gave her signature expression of winking with a smug smile, the sunlight and breeze hitting her *Just* Right to give a really dramatic end to her \"Show.\" The Azurill family couldn't help but cheer, some smacking their paws together to applaud as Rika approached the group. Suavely, she asked, \"Anyone else hurt besides our Master here?\" She kneel down to the Azumarill to comfortably stroke just below its left ear, giving Irene a knowing glance. \"Hope your knight did justice right for you~\""

"message": "The former Mt. Battlemaster kept watch over everything that had just transpired in the midst of their battle. Occasionally, she'd look over by the pack of Marills that surrounded her before turning her attention to the blue pokemon that she rested her chin on. With a forceful exhale through her now pursed lips, she was uncertain of the outcome and the shivering blue mouse didn't make things any better, it distracted her from the main show after all. Nevertheless, Irene would hold the quaking Azumarill closer. The constant back and forth with its zig-zagging tail was either an indication of sheer frustration or pent up anger, her delicate fingers would play around with its ears, perking it up to cause it to turn around at her, before offering the water-type a comforting smile, which in turn caused it to calm down.\n\n\"Everything's going to be A-OK, I guarantee it. You've done a noble thing keeping your loved ones safe, so let my-\" Shaking her head, the musician would shift her gaze up for a moment. \"Our knight will handle it.\" Correcting herself, Irene found herself looking at the water-type's circular eyes directly, she moved her index finger towards its nose, giving it a light boop. \"Just sit tight. ♡'' Her voice was soft, almost to the point of being affectionate yet oddly imposing and authoritative. However, those words inspired confidence deep within the injured Azumarill, causing it to obey Irene's words as it stayed put, once again fixating on the battle for their home, trusting in both the humans that came to save them. Once again turning her attention to the battle at hand. Slowly adjusted both her armbands to get some air in, SAT-LUN didn't miss too much of the action. Her eyes lit up in glee and anticipation as the alluring Whiscash was high up in the air.\n\n-\n\nAh, how long has it been since she'd last seen one? How nostalgic, the musician thought to herself while her eyes followed the icicles that emerged from the blizzard, right down to the moment it froze the aggressive Crawdaunt's pincers. Letting out a low whistle, Irene was impressed with the strategem Rika was going for, but her curiosity did get to the better of the musician, just what was her plan exactly? If anything, the ground type specialist seemed a tad gentle in her approach to subduing the crustacean. It wouldn't take long for the answer to reveal itself as the pit formed underneath the territorial water/dark type. However, Irene didn't realize that they were nearing the end.\n\nAs soon as the Camerupt emerged and let out a yawn, everything made perfect sense. Her mouth parted, and her pearly teeth were exposed as her eyes sparkled upon Rika's final act. Her eyes fixated on the suave, ponytailed elite four as they turned to face the musician and the pack, and upon bowing, Irene would lower her head back to mimic the gesture. The way Rika gracefully & tactfully handled this situation put Irene's heart at ease.\n\n-\n\nA nice change of pace from the usual bouts the brunette finds herself in.\n\nOf course, she did give the elite four member's team a thumbs up when they turned around as well, taking a mental note that they all had one thing in common. They were ground types. Could they have been a gym leader of some sort? No, if Irene knew anything about battling, and she knew how to gauge one's strength, Rika was stronger than the average type specialist, but something was lacking, the intent of utterly decimating an opponent. Although Irene could tell that the way the Paldean conducts herself in battle is completely different from her own way, she admired the style nonetheless and decided to applaud them alongside the water-types while the ground type specialist's signature expression caused her mind to drift elsewhere.\n\n-\n\nAh, she looked really cool, didn't she?\n\nNot realizing just how close Rika had gotten up to that point, Irene snapped back into reality upon their question and was greeted with her handsome face giving the brunette a knowing glance, almost to the point where her heart skipped a beat. Alas, SAT-LUN would loosen her hold onto the injured Azumarill and leaned closer to Rika, giving their cheek a light peck, her soft lips coming in contact with the Paldean's right cheek. For the musician, this was just a gesture of gratitude, it didn't hold much weight or meaning. Besides, she's already kissed plenty of people on the cheek before, so this was nothing to write home about. Moving her face back, Irene greeted her knight with a wide smile.\n\n\"You've done me proud, oh mighty Swamp Knight!\" The brunette cackled before fully letting go of the Azumarill and immediately got up on her feet. \"Heave ho!\"\n\nFixing the creases of her shirt, the musician would then extend her hand out to Rika, before using her other hand to take out her own phone, shaking it to catch the green-haired trainer's attention. \"Gimme your phone.\" Irene requested, her tone of voice was slightly more serious than what Rika had gotten used to up to that point. \"A knight like yourself deserves a banquet in their name, I concede.~ Dinner's on me.\" The musician would declare her defeat, even though it would be a tie at most, and she knew that. \"I'll meet you at the at 5 PM if you're free, after you take care of our 'master.' of course~, We'll get to know each other there properly and get some grub before going on our merry way to stargaze, think of it like a date of sorts!\" Bursting into laughter, Irene slid her phone back into her pocket before raising a single digit, offering the Paldean a playful wink.\n\n\"You can ask me one question now though.~ What's on your mind?\""

"message": "She didn't know how much she wanted that praise from Irene. There was this air about the girl that made Rika, the Paldean Elite Four, wanting to do her best. And Rika isn't one to get questionable over a *Kiss on the cheek* Especially since it's a norm in Paldea. But seeing as it's something that only happens to people who are **Close** In family and friends, also in *Greeting*, it was definitely out of place. She doesn't show any reaction, though, thinking *\"Psh, this kiddo is trying to fluster me.\"* Still... Maybe a *Teensy-eensy* Bit. To move on, Rika brushed her bangs to the side while flipping the ponytail that trail after her, she offered a humble, soft laugh. \"I'm glad I did.\" Just like a quick one-two, she was *Told* To show her phone and without hesitation, her Rotomphone flew from her pocket in front of Irene. It's a convenient tech that Paldea has. Liking her directness, Rika decides to point it out, \"First time I've been given an order.\" Maybe it was, maybe it was not, but at that moment, it was the most memorable for her. The confidence oozing from this girl was something Rika always admired in anyone. Usually, it was her leading the way, other females swooning—not saying, Rika is swooning for Irene but... It was a nice change of pace to have someone sure of their actions.\n\nThough she loved the chivalry, Rika insists on not taking the win. \"That wasn't the deal,\" She said, with a hand up to halt Irene from saying more. \"You found them, you were there first when Crawdaunt was attacking. I'm a man of my code, I'll treat you dinner.\" It'll be pretty selfish if Rika was to accept the offer, seeing as the only thing she did was do what was expected of any trainer. Irene had the skills to scale quickly and boldly come to the rescue of another. She's the real MVP here. Rika just wanted to show off. There was a itch in the corner of her brain that made her want to prove she's considered an elite. Even if she's the first rung on the ladder.\n\nA date, huh? It wa\n\nS to be expected, she's usually asked out for lunch. But the Paldean already had the hunch that wasn't Irene's goal in the beginning. Besides, this girl has captured her interest herself. She wouldn't mind they relax while telling stories of their life together. It should be a normal thing for an island supposedly full with the gifted. \" 5pm it is then.\" Pulling out a flask from her dress pants pocket, Rika twists the cap off and offer Azumarill the drink. No, it's not alcohol! It's Sitrus Berry juice. Not only was it for her Pokémon, it was refreshing for herself too, being the person that always walks around. It had all the right stuff to make the Pokémon feel better. While the pack of blue orbs were happily \"Hurrah-ing\" And the sort, they were also a bit sad since it seem their two new human pals were about to leave to their own affairs. Now, Rika may have declined her treat for dinner, but she's going to accept the \"One more question.\" Standing back up, she puts the cap of the flask back on and then back in her pocket, stalling to draw out effects. \"What's on my mind, hmm~ Well.\" She takes a moment to let that message get across. The breeze from the ocean blows over them, sifting the hair on their head. Her Pokémon were lazing about, still basking in the acknowledgment that Irene gave them earlier and making conversation with Azumarill and gang. Finally, Rika clears her throat, and then asks,\n\n\"Who are you?\"\n\nVery simple three words, but very impactful too. In this world, this island, the aura Rika felt slithering up her back just as she cut between Irene and the Crawdaunt, there was something lurking, ominous even. Does she want to know? It was she being too suspicious? ... A moment more, and an even stronger breeze blows, making Rika giggle as she fixed her bangs again, holding it down, so that it doesn't itch her forehead any longer. Her crimson eyes rolls over the girl in front of her, before they close in glee. \"Or, will you tell me tonight?\""

Suffice to say, it was definitely her first time seeing one, though she'd definitely heard of those. With her fingers coiling around the 'mysterious' device, the brunette began navigating her way through the phones, eventually finding her destination, thankfully she wasn't technologically inept! All the while, she kept the conversation trucking along._\n\n\"It won't be the last time I give an order either, better get used to it kiddo.\" _Sticking her tongue out playfully, it was time to address the second topic at hand. Whilst she inputted her number, she would tap her chin momentarily, thinking of what name to put on the Paldean's phone before deciding on one that she found... Funny to say the least._\n\n✩ Not Kiddo! SAT-LUN ✩\n\n_Snickering to herself, the former Mt. Battlemaster was concocting a mischievous idea of the comical variety, her finger moving all the way up to her lips and shushing the Rotom phone before deciding to message herself using the elite four member's device, she was so sure she wouldn't mind, might find it amusing if she ever found it. At least, that was her initial impression of the green haired trainer._\n\nFrom Rika → XX:XX AM\nHey! Not a Kiddo! I think we should just split the bill!\n\n_Trying to not make her elaborate scheme too obvious, the brunette was still talking, even as Rika insisted to not take her offer. Responding only with a subtle \"We'll see about that.\" Muttered underneath her breath before offering the Rotom Phone a playful wink, urging it to keep what's about to happen a secret about their compromise for the time being. As the Paldean confirmed the time and place, taking out a rather curious flask as the elite made their way towards the pack. The sight of the blue pack celebrating was most certainly heartwarming, and her hazel orbs took it in its entirety. Perhaps the meeting of the pair was fated, Irene had already taken somewhat of a liking to them, due to just how much of an impression they left on the musician._\n\nFrom ✩ Not Kiddo! SAT-LUN ✩ → XX: XX AM\nGlad you can come to your senses kiddo! Sure! We'll go 50-50!! 😛\n\n_Hitting send from her own smartphone, Irene waved at the Rotom Phone, signaling it to return to its owner while she carefully observed the Paldean stand back up to their full height. Though the suspense was eating away at her from the inside, the musician was ready for anything, bracing herself for impact. With the gentle breeze playing along her head, the musician's attention diverted towards the ocean, her hands comfortably clasped behind her back as she stood on the shore until Rika finally cleared their throat, ushering in what would be a blanket statement in the form of a question. Who was she? Raking her fingers through her hair after lifting the cap she was now synonymous with, the musician pondered on how to exactly to approach this situation before putting it back on whilst enjoying the gentle breeze courtesy of this particular morning's outstanding weather whilst whistling parts of a particular tune, one that would be apparent much later._\n\n_Shifting the position of her hands again, her index finger would be held against her own lips once again, this time in pure contemplation before reverting back to their previous position. It didn't take long for her to come up with an answer that she deemed satisfactory, after all she had some idea of what that question had insinuated. Did Rika sense something? Far be it from Irene to miss such a crucial detail, it was impressive that they were able to notice that something was amiss. Whether or not she was referring to the Gengar hiding in her shadow, or was it the overwhelming confidence and vicious instinct that might have popped for a moment, all roads led to the same conclusion however. Any further inquiries by the musician wouldn't do any of them any good, she planned on being honest, but carrying on this conversation while being covered in her own sweat wasn't the play. It was much better to save all the juicy parts for when they finally have dinner, that was her thought process, plain and simple._\n\n-\n_Bringing both her index fingers outward for Rika to bear witness, Irene would move those digits as though they were drumsticks, her lips curling to a half-smile before finally holding onto her star shaped necklace._\n\n\"Just a humble musician passing by, I'll save the rest for tonight brave sir knight.\" _Covering her mouth, Irene tried her hardest to not let out so much as a peep, the roleplay they seemed to have found themselves in was just too amusing, and hilarious to boot._ \"But I'll satiate your curiosity, that's a promise. So long as you satiate mine. I feel like you've got quite a few stories to tell as well, that's just my read though!\" \n\n_Turning around, the musician would fully turn her back onto Rika, making her way towards the direction they both initially came from and towards her room to get ready for the night. As she walked however, three purple digits would pop out from the musician's shadow, waving the elite goodbye. Whether or not it was Spooks being somewhat of a prankster to Rika, Irene didn't seem to care all too much, perhaps it was more fun that way to keep the elite on their toes for the time being._"

She was like a little kid, playing her little jokes while getting invested in the technology. With how she was fiddling around it, was it something new to her? That moment's stare was enough for Rika to assume, and now thinking about it, she never caught where Irene was from. Not all regions used Rotomphones. It was actually funny when it returned to her, Rika peeking at what took so long and seeing the message under her name. It got the elite four's face lighting up with a small chuckle, in which she hid behind her gloved hand. Then, seeing the name for her contacts, \"SAT-LUN\" Sounded distinctively familiar. It reminded her of the stars.\n\nHer crimson eyes stayed focus on the letters until they became incomprehensible. The humming of the brunette in front of her swept her almost in a daze. It was not until she noticed a shift in Irene did Rika looked up, the other female's expression caught in by the sunlight that filtered nicely. She really exudes a certain enigma, scheming. Rika doesn't know how to place it. It was as if she's walking on landmines, or dancing around them. It has been a while, or heck, maybe it's the first time someone spoke to her in such a confident manner without that infatuation. The only thing in the spectrum is her flirting. The elite four found her expression quite serious before lifting a corner of her lips. It's not like Irene is the only one who's careful with what to reveal.\n\n\"*Just a humble musician passing by.*\" She had said. If that was the case, was the brunette just this Amelia Sigford's favorite indie artist, called in for a party? No, there's more to it. Irene was just being a mischievous thing, Rika can tell. Her smile matches with that of the other girl. Two can play that game. As a Pokémon trainer, anyone is competitive but Rika goes with the flow and rig\n\nHt now, the flow of this \"Humble\" Magician in front of her is anything but. \"Sounds a plan, k-\" Rika held back from calling her kiddo, heeding the words on her contact. She will for now, until it's time for another tease. A trade-off at dinner wouldn't be so bad. Besides, the talk of satiability makes it more anticipating. Is her role really that important that she has to keep making Rika curious?\n\n\"If this is just a game for you-\" She starts softly, staring after Irene's back before the wave of something in her shadow came and went. Huffing from out her nose, the pushed air rose her bangs a bit before they slacked back down. \"-then I'm caught in it.\""

Unless you don't mind spinning around, we could go on the merry-go-round.\" \n\nHe started walking again, now being close enough to see either ride. He looked back and noticed something on the side of Saul's face...\nEzra leans in a bit. That was cream! He leaned in more before reaching into his pocket. A handkerchief came out and he grntly wiped it away without a word."

The water rippled underneath a large dual water and ice type pokemon, a beautiful Lapras rode ever closer to the end on the pier and it seemed a large voluptuous older woman sat on on the shell of the transport pokemon. The Lapras let out a beautiful cry as it finally came to a halt.\n\nThe silver haird woman hopped off her Lapras and stretched her limbs, she turned quickly and nuzzled her ace pokemon. This round woman was non other than Melony! She let go of her Lapras just to rumage through her bag to give her pokemon a sitrus berry \"You were amazing Lapras, thank you for taking me all the way out here. You're such a good girl!\" Melony was very affectionate towards her pokemon and cared so much for them even more than normal after her split with her eldest son. 'I hope Gordie is safe. He hasn't called in weeks... ' the woman let out a heavy sigh and leaned against her Lapras for support. The pokemon let out a gentle cry and caressed her trainer with her head, \"Lap lap Lapras!\" Melony giggled softly and petted the large pokemon. \"You're right, he's a grown man now I can't keep treating him like a baby- I just miss him so much Lappy\" The older woman sniffled but wiped her tears away and hugged her Lapras by the neck nuzzling the dinosaur esc pocket monster."

While the others were pretty indifferent about being out or not, Obstagoon was little more jealous. Come on! They could have been doing all sorts of crazy things around the island. Except that his trainer was head over heel for someone. Obstagoon growled a little as he thought about that stupid tall dragon guy who was stealing Piers away from him everyday! Well... He didn't hate him, but, whatever. \n\n\"This view's lookin' pretty nice, huh. A lot different than the cold beaches 'round Spikemuth. Also, feels nice gettin' away from flashy neon lights and turned over rubbish bin.\" He leaned forward, cupping one of his cheeks with his palm. \"Anything ya wanna d-\" Aaaand...\nThe oversized badger Pokemon had licked Piers' entire face with one lap. He guessed he was happy either way. \"...Thanks. Love ya too, ya goon.\" He couldn't help but laugh a little and pat his head. Looking back into the distance, he noticed... A Lapras? Weren't they usually in colder waters? Even more surprising was seeing a woman riding it. That wasn't just any woman, either. \n\"Miss Melony. Arceus, who *Isn't* From Galar.\" He said to himself. He guessed that after she had her moment with her Pokemon, he should probably make himself visible. He just needed her to glance over at him. \nInstead, Obstagoon cried out as loud as he could! Piers covered the side of his head and winced."

And of course that requires some strength. Did Hugh needed a vacation? Maybe. Really. If the boy racked his brain for reasons why he came here, it's more the fact that he's just able to. Strong trainers are going to be here but it didn't really matter to the spiky hair male since these elites are just like any other trainer. It's more like he's here because why not?\n\nAfter getting dropped off by a provided transportation from this *Sigford*, Hugh went to check out the area rather than go to the mansion. So far, the island isn't too bad. This boardwalk he's near is like the amusement park back at Nimbasa City. Heck, he plans to maybe ride some of those rides when he could. For now, he's walking under this boardwalk, on the sand. Don't know why the rival didn't notice it, but when he saw *Caitlin*, the member of the elite four lazing on the beach—that must mean there are more of *Them* Here. Them as his own region people. Hugh didn't mind them, but it's funny. It would be as if he never left home.\n\nSpeak of the Giratina—that in the distance—was it Blake? He looked pretty forlorn. Well, the guy always seem forlorn. It's hard for Hugh to understand him sometimes. Since Caitlin is closer to where the rival stood, his voice might be louder to her than the brunet. \"Blake! It's expected to see you here!\" The spiky hair is trying to get his friend's attention, waving at him and then beckoning the other over with so much authority. Ah, he's used to it. Go getter, alright?- When he took a step forward to reach his friend halfway through where he himself is standing and where Blake is standing, what stopped him in his tracks is Caitlin. Hugh never battled the elite four and the champion because he didn't have to. So, to be honest, he's a bit curious of how someone like her would become a league member.\n\nIt's more like a child's wonder than anything in doubt. He could be misinterpreted as *Ogling* If someone were to assume."

What he hadn't accounred for were other people being there, then again he should of expected it because people can go anywhere they please but he also thought people would prefer to go to some of the more exicting places. He had heard that there was a big themepark-like place, that would of been much more interesting.\n\nThe first person he saw was Lady Caitlin, a psychic type elite four member from Unova. Jeez, alot of Unovans seem to be at this place huh? She seemed to be having a nap, which wasn't all too unexpected and he wasn't about to go over and disturb her, he wasn't like that at all. He hummed quietly to himself as he returned his Kabutops, now just his faithful partner Dewott beside him which was curious about it's surroundings as it's paws plodded on the pier.\n\nThe pure water type soon caught sound of a familiar voice, alerting it's trainer with a squeak and a tug of the hand. Breaking out of his thoughts, Blake looked around to find his rival and gave them a little wave. Hugh was probably the closest he'd consider to being genuine friends, sure they were rivals too but Hugh was a nice enough person and they weren't really annoying so he found he could get along well with them.\n\nWalking over to them with his Dewott in tow, he began to wonder if the whole Arceus damn reigon of Unova had gotten an invitation. Not that he particularly minded, he was just intreeged on how so many Unovans were at this place.\n\n\"Ah, hello Hugh. How have you been doing?\""

That smirk disappears and he walks up to Blake as nonchalantly as he could with his hands in his pockets. He glances at the other with a sideway glance—and that look itself could appear intimidating to some people. Not his friend, though. The protagonist doesn't seem fazed by anything. Plus, he should know Hugh isn't really trying to glare anyone down. \"I've been doing good. You should've stopped by more often. Didn't know you were slacking off.\" The last sentence was a joke, but it could be difficult to tell from his hard expression.

Some more.\" He glance over to Caitlin again, after hearing her complain. \"For all I know, you're probably getting stronger here, what with the elites around and all.\" When Caitlin repositioned herself to hide behind her legs and her Gothitelle, Hugh couldn't help but scoff with a hint of chuckling. Girls. \"We can see you,\" He says loudly. \"Don't worry. I'm not planning on battling you.\" He reaches out to put an arm around Blake's shoulders. \"But this guy might.\" Hugh's only saying that because he knows the brunet is able to back him up. And with that, it comes with great training and trust in your partners! \n\n\"Is there anyone else here?\" Lucky for Hugh, the first two people he met was ones from Unova. Out of everywhere else that this supposed island getaway probably invited and it's these two from his homeland. His friend, Blake, probably saw a friend. It would be something if he made *New* Ones, but Hugh would be one to talk. Caitlin could have her elite four group nearby and the spiky hair steels for that."

A small smile forms on his lips before he went back to looking at Blake, and then down to Dewott. \"Heh, still a Dewott? Futashi is already so strong as one. Imagine if he evolved into a Samurott then?\" It was a loose suggestion thrown into the air. Hugh already knows Blake's plans with it, considering the Pokémon holds an Eviolite. \n\nReceiving a shouting Caitlin was unexpected that Hugh shoots her a glance that appeared as a glare. But of course it'll look like that with how close slitted his eyes are. \"Why are you blaming me?\" He asked, a bit annoyed. He just wants his Pokémon to stretch their legs!

Looking down at the Dewott which was clinging to his jacket, he pet the water type's head softly.\n\n\"I think Futashimaru is happy as they are..\"\n\nThe Dewott nodded and squeaked in confirmation, sure being a Samurott would supposedly make it stronger stat-wise, but it was content as it was for now. Besides, it often liked to climb up onto it's trainer's shoulders and rest there and if it tried to do that as a Samurott it would probably crush Blake.\n\nLooking up at Caitlin, he knew this would happen at some point, that's why he didn't take the rest of his team out. He didn't think the psychic type elite four member would get cranky though, although he could understand why she was annoyed with her sleep being disrupted like this. Giving a small nod to Hugh, he did the sensable thing and backed off from the both of them, still being able to see them but being out of the 'splash zone' if you will.

As it slowly fall to the sand, Hugh's face would twist in a grimace. He returns his teammate for a rest. \"He... I *Felt* That. He didn't deserve it.\" His red eyes glare directly at the female. \"I'll make sure you pay for hurting my Pokémon.\" Sure, a battle is like that, but it pained Hugh to witness it. While in his frustration, the rival is forgetting that he's battling an elite four member. Of course it's going to be tough!\n\n\"Simisage, come on out!\" He throws his Pokéball in the sand and out pops the grass monkey. As Caitlin is distracted trying to hide her face from the camera, Hugh encourages Rotom. \"Oh yeah, make sure to get our *Great* Elite four Caitlin in the shot. Especially her. That's right.\" He smirks a bit before taking this moment to initiate. \"Simisage, Seed Bomb!\" The Pokémon readies itself as it jumps into the air and flicks seeds from its hair toward the opponent!"

But it didn't and last minute, it goes into the gutter—making that a miss. A tv shown above the lane displays an Alolan Exeggutor. The head of it wiggles and one by one, the eggs drop down into a nest. The last one struggles to fall while the others have made it safely. When the last one manages to escape and fall, the nest was picked up by a Dugtrio that appears beneath it, whisking the whole thing away. The last Exeggutor egg falls to the hard ground, splattering out the word \"MISS!\" ...\n\nThat was pretty graphic. Aside from that, bowling alley TVs play the weirdest things! \"Ah well, you missed, Allister,\" Leon states the obvious while answering the boy. \"Good thing in bowling, you're allowed two throws!

What the hell.\nAllister grumbled with frustration, seeing the ball just disappear like that. \"Ugh...\" The young gym leader frowned at the annoying animation that played on screen, as it was just adding insult to injury at that point. He was about to turn and leave when Leon reminded him that, oh yeah, he gets another throw. It probably wasn't worth much anymore, but he might as well try, right?\n\nThe purple ball was too heavy, that was understood. But it soured his mood knowing that he couldn't even have his favorite color. Leon picked up a pink ball, which made him scowl ever so slightly. Not *Too* Much, as he was adjusting to his new mask not hiding his entire face. Everyone knows that in Allister's eyes, purple beats pink. So he was gonna have to find another ball.\n\"Mhmm... Ye.\" He said, picking up a different one, this time it was blue, and only weighed seven pounds. Holding it in his hand the boy figured he could definitely lift it it, and walked over to to the lane to try again.\n\"One... Two... Three!\"\nAllister swung, but the second he did, a sharp pain shot through his arm, making him fling the ball in a random direction. \"Agh!\" He hiss, gritting his teeth at the pain. Looking up, he found that the ball was... Rolling into the gutter... In a *Different* Lane...\n\"URGHH! C-CRUMBS!\" If not for being a polite British boy, Allister's language would have been a lot more colorful there. Still, he felt his heart sink, and his anger rise. \"Arceus! I h-hate this game!\""

I g-guess.\" He purposely didn't look when his friend pointed out the returning ball. It wasn't *That* Cool, Leon. Grow up. Even though, given a better mood, the boy would have been wide eyed and staring with intrigue, but he resisted the urge to enjoy any of it.\n\"Just bowl-\" He said bluntly.\n\nAnd boy, did Leon bowl. ANOTHER STRIKE? How was that even possible? Allister supposed that Leon *Was* Stronger than him, maybe that helped... Okay, *Now* Was the time for him to actually get somewhere. \n*\"Come on Mr. Allister!\"* Moon cheered. *\"You can do it!!!\"*\nHe walked over to grab his ball, hoping this time it would work. How did Leon do it? He just lined up and. *'One, and two, and THREE!'*\n\"OW!\" Allister yelped. He'd thrown more with his wrist this time, but the pain in his arm still ruined his throw. The ball got flung off to the side again, and oh look! It's in the gutter. Ugh, At least it's in their lane...\n\"Ugh...\" It's fine, it's fine. He would just get another turn. He waited for his ball to return, and picked it up. But surprise surprise, he dropped in, and the damn thing landed with another loud thud... Oh his foot!\n\"W-why... You... Hahaha...\" Allister laughed a bit, picking up the ball. He turned to Leon, and his eyes were glowing.\n*\"Get back-\"* Moon advised, pulling the Champion to sit at the table next them.\n\"AGHH!\" Allister screamed, throwing the ball into the air. He jumped after it, spun, and kicked it so hard, it went flying across the room.\n\nIn the corner of the bowling alley, a worker was just finishing up an order. \"Fries for- HOLY SHIT!\" He screamed, when a fucking bowling ball smashed into the wall next to him. \"Whaaa! I don't get paid enough for this,\" He wined, before fainting.\n\n\"Okay, Mr. Allister! Please calm down!\" Mood shouted, when the kid went to pick up yet another ball. \"I a-am calm!\" He insisted, and went to throw it , but she stopped him and threw the ball on the floor. \"No... You really aren't.\" Allister's Mimikyu guided him back over to sit next to Leon. Hopefully her trainer wasn't in a biting mood..."

Yowch! That gotta hurt, and the man got concern. \"You okay there, bud—\" But those glowing eyes of Allister meant he *Wasn't*. Even the Galar champ is wary of this and he backs away just as Allister's Mimikyu pulled him to a table. \n\nEven if the bowling ball is seven pounds, Allister choosing to kick such a hard ball could have crushed his little toes! But here he is! Playing it likes it's soccer. Physical flames could be seen enveloping it as it went shooting... Still not the right direction, rather, close to an employee. Leon winced when they fainted with a thud. One thing for sure, if Allister ever wanted to play soccer, he'd be a formidable foe. Sure, Leon was frightened at first, but now he's just so *Amazed!*\n\n\"Allister! If you just aimed the right direction, you could've killed those pins!\" The whole game is still waiting for Allister's second throw. Maybe...? \"Do it again!\" Leon got a few more seven pound balls for Allister, his eyes glowing and an excited smile spreading on his face. He points toward the pins with a declaration. \"That's one way to improvise! Go for it!\" ~~It would've definitely be against the rules but oh well.

Maybe it was his high expectations of himself. Okay... It was his high expectations of himself. When he really thought about it, the young gym leader wasn't particularly bad at anything he liked. Key word, liked. Singing, dancing, playing violin, and of course training pokemon were all things that just clicked for him. And now this didn't and it made him furious.\n\"H-how are you so good at this.\" He asked, sort of offhandedly as he slumped over next to the table. He didn't get an answer, figures, he probably scared the crap out of Leon with that last action. Was Allister too aggressive? He did have a bad history of getting pissed when he lost. Oh sure, he could act all calm for the public, but after losing a gym battle, it wasn't uncommon to see him in the locker room, spiraling further and further down a rabbit hole of self doubt.\n\n*\"Do it again!\"*\n\"Huh?\" Allister was shocked with what Leon said. Again? After he almost bashed a guy's head in. Well, yeah, he was scarily accurate when it came to kicking things, but was that really a good idea? *\"Go for it!\"* Well... If it would know down the pins. And if Leon was okay with it...\nAllister stood up and brushed himself off, taking the ball. The weight was immediately much more than he expected, now that he'd gotten over his initial rage. \"Ugh... I c-can't do this when 'm not... Y'know.\"\n*\"Hey Allister!\"* Moon chimed in. *\"You know, some people see you as a lazy child who never improves and half asses all his battles.\"*\n...\n\n\"They what?\" That was just what he *Needed* To hear. \"I. AM. **NOT**.\" Allister shouted, before throwing the ball and pulling off his kick again. The bowling ball went hurdling towards the pins, not even touching the ground with how high up he'd kicked it from. It slammed into the pins, knocking them over, and even smashing a hole in the wall behind them. Through Which the rest of the Boardwalk could be seen.\nThe screen flashed above him, as a Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Charmander all gathered in a circle and clapped. The word, \"Spare.\"\n\"I-I'll take it.\" Allister said. But when he turned to look at the bowling lane, there was kind of a hole in the wall, and the pins hadn't set themselves up yet. Did he break it?\n\"Um... Leon?\""

He smiled when Leon said it was amazing, and the two kept playing.

Piers told him to take it slow but being a dragon-type gym leader, it was difficult to hold back his own wild side. If anything, he wants to make-out with Piers *Aggressively* But doesn't want to get him mad.\n\nYet, he made them stay close like this so he could stare into the eyes of Piers, cyan and sharp, and many times mentioned before, mesmerizing. His arms wrap around the other suddenly, afraid he'd spring back and away. His feelings definitely haven't happened overnight. It have been going on for years. Pending and pending until now."

Then again, Raihan had always been affectionate. There he was teasing again. He really couldn't help himself. Piers still had a hard time believing it was him. Something was even more intimate about their foreheads touching. Ah, there it was. The blush was spreading across his face again. He wondered if the other male could feel the warmth. That's when it hit him. Eyes really could be windows into the soul; he had no choice but to stare into blue eyes in front of him. Had anyone ever looked at him like this? Raihan was wanting more.

The last of the pink and orange hues were in the distance. \n*That's when he pulled him in.*\nPier connected their lips. He was certain that Raihan felt his beating heart against his chest. Moments later, he pulled away just enough so he could take a bit of air in.

You love *Me*.\" How did he not recognize this until now, Piers thought to himself. He knew how to love. But he didn't know about *This* Kind of love, not until now. \n\"Agh, damn it...\" He tilted his head up, staring at the dark blue sky, he was not about to ruin his make-up with tears.

He could indeed feel the beating heart of Piers, which matches his- as cheesy as it sounds, but it couldn't be any truer. Raihan doesn't want it to end. Piers' hands that caress his cheeks felt too reassuring. Raihan might've let a small moan escape from how much joy he felt simply being with this guy.

He squeezes his arms around the other guy comfortably, pressing their bodies together as close as they can in a hug. The ride itself have stopped, their car at the top. There, the stars just appearing from the horizon where the sun had set, makes for an mystical atmosphere. If Piers was to cry, damn well Raihan wouldn't be able to hold back either.\n\nHe wants this more, forever. But of course, the ride would restart itself."

He felt like he was repeating those words in his mind just so his heart would flutter like that. Ah, that was selfish, wasn't it? He hoped it wasn't. The hug was just what he needed in this moment. He held on to the other man and let himself be held. Did they stop? He gazed out to the stars. Then again, his best view was sitting right next to him. \nHe uses his hand to hide his face, not able to actually stop himself this time. He wiped his tears as soon as he felt them fall down his face. He missed a couple of them, which was frustrating! \n\"J-Just give me a moment, will ya-\" He requested. Both of his hands went to his eyes, constantly rubbing at them carefully. Guess there'd be a bit of runny makeup after all. \n\"Ugh, crying is so dramatic, ain't it. Why am I cryin' when I'm 'posed to be happy, and... Other feelin's.\" He tried not to look at Raihan. Who knows, the guy might start crying himself."

The guy requested for some privacy so he might as well give it to him. His heart sinks, but not in a bad way. Yeah, hugging Piers is better than the view anyway. It's nothing comparable. For once, he doesn't think of busting out some humor to break the moment. He's still quiet. \"You're not. You're fine,\" He replies to Piers who's claiming he's dramatic. The lanky male hopes that he's crying because he's happy and not because he regrets agreeing to be with someone like him. Someone who probably doesn't deserve him, someone who's a burden. Pulling the other in a hug again, he hides his face in his shoulder. With how emotional Piers is being, it's difficult for him to cry either. He already bawled his eyes out the first time. Love felt like something he had to earn, and he's grateful that he got it from Piers. As the two are fitted in embrace, the ride would start up again. It moves around, slowly going back to the ground. It seem the ride is coming to an end."

Sitting down, he tapped his feet, making little clinking sounds when his heels hit the metal of the floor. \"Y-you don' think...

He was relived at that and turned away, trying to think, before the two kept running for the exit. And running, and running. Eventually, Allister did see light, both of them did, and they ran for it.\n\nThe two stepped outside, Leon looking confused, and Allister blinked to adjust to the sunlight.

He knew the other was bad with directions, but when did they start backtracking? That's the real question...\n\"W-what happened back there?\" Allister asked, mostly to himself.

Yeah, he might not like it, but Leon is definitely distracted.\n\n\"Let's go!\" And he moves both of them in the small bustling boardwalk that seem to have grown in people all the sudden. Great.

Saul's was more assertive and Ezra's was more passive. Still, both of them knew that what this person was doing was a little more than questionable and kind of petty. \n\n\"Hmm... That type of answer seems, well, doubtful. Seeing that you put it on your pocket makes your statement pretty weak.\" He clikced his tongue a couple of times. Then, he went to Saul and put a hand on his shoulfer. Perhaps they *Shouldn't* Get involved. Just because it would cut into their time at the rink. \n\n\"Darling, let's keep moving. I do hope that watch ends up in the right hands again.\"\nHe gives his back a soft pat before moving down his arm. He takes his wrist ever so gently and begins to move them forward, going past the pink haired man whose name Ezra wouldn't get this time around."

Something to finally reconsider about time. Besides it's just a watch anyway. \"Let us attend to our own matters\" He scoffed, as he and Ezra walked past the rosy haired man.

This person, it was what he supposed to be a tall... Man. That was anything he could guess.\n\"Ah— My apologies.\" He kind of spoke loudly, ah. Yes this was also a habit that came from who he was... He was a proud elite 4 member! One of the best of the best, one of the greatest trainer in all Johto, of course he had to impose his voice over the challenger's, hence why he talked this way.\n\n\n\n\n*With"

The board walks was dark and the noise from all the screaming was a bit deafening, though he's always hated rollarcoasters, he hated flying which is why he took a boat here.

He turned to said man with an annoyed look on his face finding it a bit irritating that someone would just bump into him, its not like he was super out into the street but anywas. He looked at the man \"Can't you watch where you're going? \"He asked in a slight growl. You'd have to be blind to bump into him.

He'd have done a quick apology and leave as fast as he could out of embarrassment and nervousness, but as he was going to walk away, his attention has been caught with what the man said, well... Unfortunately for him, indeed he couldn't \"Watch\" Where he was going, he didn't have the chance that almost everyone had on seeing the world that surrounded him. Sometimes it saddened him but he learnt to live with it somehow. \nHe looked up over the loud voice he heard, you could notice his pale eyes behind his black mask, they were this way for a reason. Some blind people had this problem with their eyes from lacking the need to blink, which caused them to get some issues such as their cataracts being messed up in some cases. \n\nHe currently had no idea how he was supposed to announce that *Indeed* He couldn't see where he was going, it wasn't something anyone would be proud of. When you have this kind of issues, you want to hide them, and you do not want people to pity you for them. \n\nThe purple haired psychic specialist stayed silent for a while, before letting out a sigh, a little bit annoyed by the other's words. \n\"I still apologize for my clumsiness, indeed my eyes are not working like a normal human's eyes would, sir. I am blind and kind of lost, I have to admit.\" He explained with a calmer voice, shaking his head just a little. \n\n*With"

In fact, this doesn't stop him from visiting Prism Tower! (Besides, it was on his bucket list.) \"Places like this would be busy? Huh, I didn't know about that\", according to the books he read, these rides and attractions are popular towards those who seek thrill and excitement in their lives. \"Gaaa\", Gallade looked around the ride in fascination as he plopped down on the empty front seat. \"Good idea! I'll go put my bag and my key stone necklace next to your backpack!\", he took off his satchel and his necklace before setting them down. \"Ga ga!\", Gallade patted the seat next him. \"I'll sit next to you Gallade! What about you Clemont?\", he asked the electric type gym leader, waiting for him and Heliolisk to hop in."

Heliolisk is just as thrilled as Gallade!\", Wally clutched onto the metal bar in front of him. \"Ga ga!\", Gallade made sure everyone is seated and secured before the ride started.
