❝ RESPECT YOUR elders and betters yada yada... ❞
SHE TRIES to prolong the joke, but soon enough she’s flinching from Yuyuki’s flick, reeling backwards dramatically as she clutches her head, wounded.
❝ OW ! WHY would you do that to meeeee ?❞
SHE LOWERS her hand && pouts before heaving a sigh && laughing. Of course she’s slightly sore, but if she’s allowed to tease Hikari, then it’s only fair for the other to tease back. It’s childish, but then again the last time they saw each they were children.
❝ YOU MEANIE. But the same goes for you too — when I moved to Kalos I didn’t think I’d ever return to Sinnoh, let alone see Twinleaf and you too. It’s great to see you and short temper again ! ❞
She huffs in amusement at the over-the-top reaction Nova gives. Oddly enough, playing around like this doesn’t really bother her. It’s refreshing in its own way.
“You brought it upon yourself and there’s more where that came from.” Hikari holds up the same hand and makes false flicking motions as a halfhearted threat.
“Thanks. Being mean is my specialty, you know.” She takes the comment about having a short temper in stride but of course she adds in a comment herself. “It’s nice to see that you’re just as much of a kid as before.” Though it’s presented as sarcasm she means it somewhat genuinely. If they had changed too much this might have been awkward. At least Hikari’s experiences travelling haven’t put her too much at a disadvantage in this case.
“How come you’re visiting then? Vacation?”
