Give A Little

[typeless]

[She's been here for months and has pretty much given up on anybody else from back home showing up.

Leaf's picked out an empty cottage a few miles away from the town. She much prefers to be away from crowds. But since she did end up miles away from most civilization, she's free to have her slightly ridiculous array of pokemon out.

One of which is a very loud Braviary, who's CAW CAWing about how awesome he is. And a Blastoise who is... napping, and somehow ignoring all the cawing.]

Calm down, it's only us out here. We've already heard how great you are. [Nope, still cawing about how awesome he is. Because everybody needs to hear it!]

Comments

[typeless]

With a Ditto, on an island.

[... Use it for what?]

[greenprose]

[ Nothing for Leaf to know, at the very least. ]

Where did you even get a ditto from?

[typeless]

... I caught it. [Like a trainer does.]

[greenprose]

[ But you need to find it first--

Never mind. Leaf is an amazing trainer as always. He should have known. ]

...Alright. Sounds fair.

[champ_coordinator]

It's very true. Do you like exploration?

[redonmyhands]

[Red's back hits the ground first. When the pain really kicks in, he reels his head back and screams. It's more about the pride on his ego though.]

[unscripted]

[There's a girl who's been staring at Leaf from afar for awhile. When Braviary caws again, she seems to spill something in her hand, it takes some time for her to react, still eying her.

When she notices, she belts out some good old fashioned profanities.]

[typeless]

[She'll walk over when she hears the screaming]

... Are you alright?

[unscripted]

...I'm good!

[She answers sharply, shaking off the ramen noodles and its broth, muttering under her breath.]

[Glancing at Braviary.] What a personality.

[typeless]

Of course it is.

[typeless]

On occasion. It's interesting to see new places.

[typeless]

[Leaf will sniff in distaste]

Get over yourself. I've had worse than that.

[typeless]

He's always been like this.

[He'll preen at the compliment] ... Sorry if he disturbed you.

[unscripted]

Nah, he's great.

It's--[She addresses eye to eye for the first time. Her cheeks turn pink.]

It's my fault. [Realizing her chopsticks hit the ground, she groans, kneeling down to search for them.]

I don't remember you having a Braviary.

[typeless]

... I'm probably not the Leaf you know. [She doesn't offer help, just standing there]

[unscripted]

...Um okay?

[Not thinking too hard about that comment. She thinks it's a joke.]

[typeless]

... When did you get here?

[redonmyhands]

[Red grits his teeth, getting up silently. He reaches for his back, glancing at Spoink, who turns to Blastoise.]

He deserved that.

[unscripted]

[Found them. She gets up, swirling her cup. There's still a lot of noodles in there.

She answers between chugs.]

..Fifteen minutes ago.

[champ_coordinator]

Oh, it is. I agree on that very subject.
