Hey Kool Katz!

What's up?

Round Trip || Hilbert & N

[integralinteger]

N burst into relief, laughing all the while. Having spent a lifetime alone, it was reassuring to know that he was in good hands now. Inside this tiny compartment of theirs, never before had he felt so secure. And to see Hilbert so flattered only amused him some more. Their car had stopped at the peak. Now they were looking down at the sparkling fluorescent lights; Hilbert’s face seemed to glow just as brightly.

N had a bad habit of using complex vocabulary that was at times beyond the young trainer. Although he wasn’t nearly as eloquent with his diction, N was also pleasantly surprised by his friend’s gratitude. He would have never calculated it, never anticipated it in the slightest. Flustered, N cleared his throat to hide his embarrassment.

"I’m surprised, yet glad, that you regard me so highly. I would have never thought it possible. I’m glad that we’re all taking steps, even if small, towards the betterment of pokemon and humans alike. Yes. One cannot live without the other. Of course, you were the one who taught me that. We bring out the best in each other, pokemon and humans."

He closed his eyes and allowed the sweet atmosphere to soothe him. The ferris wheel was his favorite place to be. Watching the neon flashes from above, being within arms reach of the sky, and just the simplicity of being up so high. Now he could enjoy this moment again with the trainer that revolutionized his life.

Regardless, N did not feel ready to return. He came back to thank Hilbert. Yet he still did not deserve to see his human friends once more. “Hey, Hilbert? Might I ask that you hold off the reunion? I don’t think I’m ready to go back yet… There’s still a lot left I need to do. I still need to atone for Team Plasma’s crimes….”

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

Yawning the young teenage boy stretched a bit. The ride was so calming and peaceful, to think it would soon end was a depressing thought. N hadn't changed much since he'd last seen him, appearance wise. Though something seemed off about him, deciding to shake the thought off he looked over at the green haired male.

"Alright no worries, you do have a busy schedule. I understand, the team and I'll be waiting for you. So don't let us hanging for too long!" 

"N, after this I hope we do stay in contact. I don't want to leave Nimbasa with a false hope that we will see each other again. So for the time being--" Hilbert stood up suddenly and took off his hat and swiped N's off his head. 

"You can take my hat and I'll take yours. Deal?" Hilbert grinned before putting on the hat and putting Hilbert's hat on N's head.

As soon as the trading of hats had been done, the doors swung open indicating the ride had ended. Time for the getaway.

"Well bye, N! Sorry again, I promise to return the hat next time we meet!" Hilbert yelled scurrying off.

If anything the hat was important to Hilbert, it was a memento he had received from his late father. The hat held a deep meaning to Hilbert, but at the moment seeing N again seemed to be more important...

  N averted his gaze. Even though his view has changed, he still did not like anyone in the League including the Elite Four and former champion Alder. He was astonished to hear those words come out of Hilbert’s mouth regardless. Looking out the window quietly, he fiddled with his puzzle seeking comfort in this awkward situation.

Even after his invitation, N remained silent. Did he really deserve this much attention? Especially after what he had done to Hilbert and his friends? As a king, he felt unworthy of such kindness. But then it occurred to him. Wasn’t it because of the young trainer’s kindness that he wanted to ride with him? After all, the debt that he owed him was so great. 

A soft smile returned to his face as he replied. “Would that be okay? If I recall, Cheren and Bianca weren’t very fond of me. And neither was Adler after I defeated him. I still know plenty of people who still resent me for what I’ve done. I would hate to be any more of a burden on you than I already have.”

And his smile changed emotions even if there wasn’t even the slightest difference in the way his lips curved. “I’m surprised you don’t hate me, Hilbert. Considering that I was the one who cause the most trouble in your journey to become an even better trainer. Actually, I wanted to thank you. But I feel that no amount of gratitude will ever suffice. Once I came back to Unova, I searched long and hard to reunite with you and deliver this message.”

"Simply put, you’ve really changed my life, Hilbert. My gratefulness towards you holds no bound. It, too, cannot be expressed by mere numbers and equations. Yes. It is infinite."

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

"Is it okay? Of course it is! N nobody there dislikes you or at least holds a grudge on you, We all know everything you did in Team Plasma was to protect pokemon. There's nothing wrong in that, so we wouldn't hate you the slightest. I promise." Hilbert gave a reassuring smile towards N before looking out the ferris wheel window.

The sky which was once colored in warm pastel colors now blended together to create a deep dark oran berry color. Due to the many neon lights the starry sky barely showed, only a few stars sprinkled the night sky accompanied by a crescent moon.

Surprised at N's choice of words, and the wonderful speech, he was utterly in awe. Not once had anyone said such a complimenting and heart warming thing to him like N had. This was definitely not an exaggeration.

It made the young boy feel warm and loved, Hilbert's face flushed red once N had finished. With his face heating up the boy couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"N if anything I should be thanking you. If it wasn't for you my life would have been simple like any other's, you brought adventure into our worlds. Hilda, Cheren, Bianca, everyone... we never dreamed of things to ever happen into our lives. In reality we should be thanking you, N. So again, in behalf of everyone in our adventure through Unova, I would like to thank you. Not only did you change our lives but also the pokemon's lives, ever since you brought the worry of abusing pokemon Officer Jenny has been helping and saving abused pokemon."

Round Trip || Hilbert & N

[integralinteger]

N giggled as he peeked out the semi-circle window. Slowly they began to escalate. The bright lights of Nimbasa moved further and further away as the neared the sky. As cliched as his words were, N understood that Hilbert meant well and that it was all genuine. He was always an awkward character. If N wasn’t so literal, he would have thought this was complete magic.

"It has been a long time. After I left, I knew I had a lot of things to think about. A lot of miscalculations, misconceptions I had about humans. After awhile, I thought I’d go search for you instead and here you are," He summarized shortly. He was rather embarrassed to admit such but it wasn’t untrue.

After a quiet pause, N added, “Hey, remember the time we first rode this together? How long ago was that? The variables that effect our daily lives are so immense. Time is such a finite thing. It’s incredible. It feels like only yesterday we were once rivals, competing against each other, trying to prove the other wrong.”

Remembering those day of painful nostalgia, N’s smile was dipped in shame. His eyes had averted away from his rescuer. After all, if they hadn’t crossed paths, who knew what kind of havoc N would be reaping as the King of Plasma. In this moment of awkwardness, N began to fiddle with the puzzle strapped to his side. Without even moving his eyes to look at the boy, he asked,

"What have you been up to, Hilbert? Are your pokemon well?"

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

Hilbert smiled remembering the pleasant memory, how Hilbert had felt anxious to hear what N had wanted to tell him. He had feared the worst, but to find out he was King of Plasma really did surprise him.

N was rather intelligent, so it was hard to keep up with what he said some of the times. Cheren would have to usually explain, you see Hilbert wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed it was hard for him to learn like others. Yet right now it seemed everything N said seemed to be fairly easy to understand, it was an odd epiphany.

"Yeah it really does seem like that..." his voice trailed off, time sure went by fast for the last few months he had met N and started his voyage into Unova.

"Well I visit the Elite Four a lot, Alder too. I still have a lot to learn before they let me become champion. The team's doing great! They sure do miss you though, it would be great if you came to Nuvema and got to meet them all again!" the idea was great actually, maybe if N agreed he'd get to know N even more. 

"So what do you think? Seems like a plan, come to Unova and get to meet the gang again?" he asked excitedly.

M!A anyone?

[integralinteger]

Even at N’s request, Hilbert refused to let go. At the very least, Hilbert was decent enough to untangle his hair so it no longer bothered him. But even still, it was quite the scene they were making. N could only laugh nervously as his rescuers came to pry the eccentric boy off of him. Other customers muttered about it.

N finally laughed sincerely. Giving Hilbert a quick and proper hug in return for his nearly-fatal one, N smiled just as brightly. Hilbert was always full of surprises. This one was perhaps the most pleasant of them. After their battle, N never thought about how much he was loved. Indeed was this a sweet homecoming.

After he left on the night of that decisive battle, N would have never expected to hear those words, not especially from Hilbert himself. A lot of people still loathed him. It was as to be expected from the former King of Plasma. He still had a lot of repenting to do but finally, he could say one of his quests were complete.

"It’s good to be back. Thank you."

"Hilbert! Please ride with me on the Ferris wheel. I’d like to talk to you about some things. We can update once we’re inside." He dragged the trainer by his wrist and pulled him into the tiny gondola. N placed himself across from the trainer, waiting for them to escalate.

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

"No problem!" Hilbert grinned at N's 'thank you', it made him feel warm and fuzzy to see his friend smile.

The last time they had met, Hilbert had been doleful. Not only did he have to battle one of his greatest friends,  but along with that he had to see them go with no idea when the boy was to return.

"Sure, it'd be nice to talk to you again. It's been so-- long." his voice trailed off, sure it had only been weeks but those weeks felt like years.

Sure it sounded cheesy, but it was the truth. When someone close to you is gone for even a second it may feel like a week or two has passed. It was the bond of friendship that Hilbert had made with N that had made him miss the green haired king even more.

Sitting across N, he began to fidget. He had thought about meeting N again for so long, and now it had finally happened. It felt surreal to have the green haired male sitting right in front of him, it felt like a dream. A dream come true.

"So where have you been exactly?" Hilbert eased back into the seat and stared out at the scenery playing before him.

  N closed his eyes and let his mind drift away. It’d be awhile before someone would approach him. It didn’t matter who, so long as they were interesting and willing to ride the wheel with him. Even his ever-calculating mind needed to relax now and then. He opened his eyes after hearing his name called from a distance. But before he could react, the boy had already pounced on him.

"Ugh!" he grunted Unprepared for the assault, N nearly fell backwards.The boy leapt onto N who could only hold him instinctively as he tried to recover. It was quite literally a painful reunion with his hair being tugged and his body supporting another one.

Now stable in his stance, N finally was able to analyze the situation. The boy that had jumped him! It was Hilbert! How long has it been since they last crossed paths? The probability of running into him in a place like this was so small. Did luck have a role in this?

"H-Hilbert? Is that you? Ouch ouch ouch. Could you please let go? You’re tugging on my hair," He sounded baffled as he spoke. It all seemed a little too surreal. But the fact that he was in pain proved otherwise. "It’s great to see you again."

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

Hilbert untangled himself from N's hair, but he still had a tight grip on N giving him what most would call an 'Ursaring Hug'. 

"I'm never letting go!" Hilbert declared giving N a grin.

It may have come off clingy the way Hilbert had said it, but what Hilbert really meant to say was that he was honestly to scared to let N go in fear that his friend would leave again. 

It took at least three clowns and two parents to pull him off of N. The scene had caused quite a ruckus, to most it seemed like Hilbert was a creepy stalker so it was no surprise that people around them had begun to murmur rumors about the two.

"Man I haven't seen you in the longest! What's been going on in your life?" Hilbert asked with curious wide eyes, smiling brightly as he waited for an answer.

"We've all missed you~" he cooed.

By 'we' he meant Hilda, Bianca, Cheren, the Shadow Triad, Rosa, Hugh, Nate, and tons of more people. After the events of the battle Hilda, him, and N had everyone found it in themselves to understand N.

[integralinteger]

Round Trip || Hilbert & N

N’s sigh was unusually heavy. Yet again, his search was fruitless. The world was too vast for him to try and chase down a single person. It was even illogical to N, this journey. Of all the millions of people and pokemon that roamed the earth, in places known and unknown, N was searching for a specific individual. Why was thanking a single person so difficult?

As per usual, he leaned against the fence, waiting. He looked up at the Ferris wheel. His hopes were high. There was a feeling in his gut that something good would happen if he stood here long enough. It was instinctual, so it couldn’t be completely illogical. Aside from that, the Ferris wheel was his favorite place to be. Something about the height was so exhilarating. And this place in particular held a very important memory. A memory that was forever locked within the compartments.

The wind blew in short, rippling waves. The nostalgia hit him like a typhoon. It was only a few years ago that he was here, leading Team Plasma to its destined demise. Unbeknownst to N at the time, that year would change his life forever. Because of that person, he felt emancipated from his ignorance. After leaving for awhile, N decided to devote the rest of his time to find that person. And then finally give them the proper thank you they deserved. Even if he wasn’t completely articulate with his expressions, gratitude was something he couldn’t leave unnoticed.

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

Nimbasa, the glittering lights and neon signs were all so familiar. He had been here more than once, it was obvious as he used his fast pass to get through the long lines. Yet he didn't seem to be having as much fun as he thought, it had only been weeks since N had been gone. His last words echoed throughout his head, bugging him even after he had taken some personal time off to go to Undella. 

"Get yourself together, Hilbert." he muttered hitting his head lightly with his fist.

Getting up from his spot on the bench the young boy began to walk around. Bumping into a few people as he walked towards another familiar ride, he looked up.

At first he could not believe what he had seen, it was just a glimpse but even so it had felt like an eternity as he stood there. The green hair was unmistakably N's, who else has long tied back hair or that unmistakable cap? Heck it might have been weeks since he last saw N, but every detail of the boy was still etched into his mind.

"Hey!" Hilbert yelled trying to catch the green haired man's attention, instead he received many bewildered looks from children and parents.

After a moment of debating, Hilbert began to sprint after the green haired guy.

"N!" he yelled before pouncing on N.

who's got the biggest baddest booty in all of unova

That's a tough one... Erm I'd have to say Hilda's?

Hey Guys Important Post

I am no longer with Kalos Abroad. The rp suddenly vanished so now I tried out for Wild Encounters, fingers crossed that I got the part!

Submit box must be open (obviously)

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

Seriously?

[pkmnstaryancy]

"Disappeared? Sounds mysterious." Yancy still didn’t know much about Hilbert’s secret and hadn’t tried to find anything out. She wanted him to tell her himself.

"Well you’re a very cute ghost," she said touching his hair. It did look good on him, although Yancy would admit it took her a few moments to recognized him. "At least you aren’t that scary or malicious. Have to get some exorcist or something to get rid of you. Although now I know what Nate was talking about."

Yancy ran a hand through her own hair and nodded. “I’m on break right now but it’s not something I can do without saying anything. I mean my manager is pretty chill but I don’t want to do anything to make their job harder.”

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

"You could say that." he chuckled. Disappeared, more like vanished from the face of the Earth. He had gone incognito for Team Galactic, as one of the goons. It was only right, seeing that he'd do it some point of his crime fighting life.

"Thanks, most people get pretty freaked out when they see white hair. They either think I'm old, trying to put out a fashion statement, or a ghost." he listed off. He snickered remembering how Red had acted towards him. "This guy tried to get rid of me, he thought I was a full on ghost." 

He nodded, he hadn't seen much news on her. "That's good you always need a break, it's not like your a machine or anything."

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

White for a New Beginning

[thestoicblade]

"Yes I am but my own orientation doesn’t get much visibility. I am panromantic demisexual." N hoped that would change in time. He felt it was important for more to be recognized. "Really? Are you LGBT as well?"

"I will be certain to vote for you as well. It might be nice to get to work together. I’m sure we’d make a great team."

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

"I'm bisexual, Mom was too but you know Dad came into Mom's life and she preferred him more than any woman." Hilbert said with a weak smile.

"That'd be great really, but year two might not come. It's going to be Red seeing that he's so well liked, so are you..." he trailed off with a small smile. In the inside he felt horrible, and hollow. 

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

Seriously?

[pkmnstaryancy]

Yancy took a seat next to him and leaned closer trying to hear what music he was listening to. She smiled when she recognized the song. She never expected him to listen to that kind of music but then again she didn’t really know him that well.

"I’ve been good. Some more of my friends are here which is wonderful. Classes are okay so far as well."

She turned to look at Hilbert. “More people are learning I’m an idol so that can be a pain but it’s nothing I haven’t dealt with before.” Yancy remembered her losing their Pokemon battle and how she told him the truth about who she was. He hadn’t given her much details in return but she was patient at times.

"How about with you? I got to say the white hair is a nice look."

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

"Mhm, I wouldn't know much about fame, I was in a few interviews before I mysteriously vanished." he shrugged remembering how he was once the bachelor of Unova but soon was forgotten after he had gone on another journey,

"Haha thanks, most people think I'm a ghost." he said chuckling. He rubbed a strand of his white hair in between his fingers. The white wouldn't come off in a very long time. 

"I see no drastic changes either?" he raised a white eyebrow at the girl. Idols had to consult their managers before they could do a drastic change to themselves.

[volkusei]

– – { ϟ }    Criminology, he supposed that was Touya’s major, then. But treatment? He wasn’t quite following there. “That’s cool,” he murmured, mostly because he couldn’t relate, seeing as he hadn’t travelled much in his life at all, and he didn’t think he was too fond of it, either. He was feeling kind of homesick already. With a glance to the side he rubbed the back of his neck as he spoke. “Sorry, but a second ago you mentioned, uh… treatment? ‘m not quite getting what you mean.” 

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

"Mhm I have this small condition, but it's no biggie really~" he waved off the thought and smiled at him. "Just a bit of asthma attacks at times, but other than that perfectly normal." he said remembering the short gasps of air he would often do if he took his medication late.

[volkusei]

– – { ϟ }    There was quite a pause as Volkner pondered how much he wanted to go into detail about his previous situation and how it led up to him attending LCU. He’d keep it simple. “Well I’d lived in Sunyshore all my life and thought it’d be… healthy to have a change, so I applied for the study abroad program, and here I am.” 

[hilbert-black-pkmn]

"Well I wanted to go to Lumiose because of it's recommended Criminology courses. Plus the treatment they have hear is well known." he said with a slight smile. "But yeah, other than that I want to discover new places. Ya know?" he said with a warm smile.
