 “Yeah, yeah~ I should’ve brought a thicker jacket. No need to show off your feathers!” His cheeks flushed from both the air and his own embarrassment. There now was only one way to fix this predicament and it was to find the Boutique located in the city. If he could find it before freezing to death, that is. Luckily, there was a girl that seemed to know the area (or at least he hoped so).

 “Excuse me~ Would you happen to know where the Boutique– A-achoo!” He couldn’t even finish his sentence when a sharp sneeze cut his words short. Great, the cold was really getting to him now.

With the appearance of the harsher, chillier months quickly approaching, the signs of the frigid winter that was to fall upon them this year were beginning to grow clearer. It had started out as mild as ever -- the temperature dropping a few degrees here, the wind picking up ever so slightly there. Before long, however, most of the multi-colored leaves that had clung desperately to the slim branches of nearby trees had fallen to the ground and been swept away into the night. The wind grew more temperamental as the days went on and soon enough, it wasn’t that out of the ordinary to see small clouds of warm air surfacing from your mouth.

Like many trainers who were traveling this time of year, the fae-like girl had opted to return home for the season in order to avoid adventuring in the frozen tundra of a region. She’d really wanted to pursue her trek towards the neighboring region, but she was hesitant to do so with the climate so drastically changing.

“It’s kind of nice to be back home though,” she said softly as she adjusted the weight of some groceries in her arms, reddish hues turning towards the Granbull at her side who was carrying a majority of the paper bags. He snorted in response to her words and she couldn’t help but let out a small giggle. No matter how much he denied it, she was sure he enjoyed being back too.

The two of them still had a good twenty minutes left to go before returning back to their residence, but the sudden sound of someone calling out to them made Granbull think it was going to be much longer than that.

“O--Oh, bless you..” she said once the taller male sneezed, causing her to shuffle back a step in surprise. He certainly didn’t seemed to be dressed for the weather and she briefly wondered if perhaps he was from elsewhere. She couldn’t remember seeing him before, but as her time was mostly spent in doors, she couldn’t be sure -- ah, but no later had she thought that that she recalled him asking where the nearest store was.

“I-- It’s not too far from here,” she said after a moment, easing into a timid smile as she quickly put down the bags -- much to Granbull’s annoyance -- and retrieved a neatly-pressed handkerchief from her pocket. She gently gestured for him to take it from her so he could wipe his nose. “We can show you the way.. uhm. if you’d like..”

回 = patching a wound .

Located in the middle of the desert comprised of several floors and a complex maze, there stood a large castle with the ruins of an ancient city that had been over centuries older. Several tales included that of a Volcarona that appeared at the end of the maze via the entrance from the passage. There were also small scriptures and hieroglyphics that told the story of the city being built by one of the twin heroes and his corresponding dragon. It was noted to be the heart of civilization for both people and Pokemon alike in the Unova region many, many years ago…

When the subject of adventuring through the ancient ruins had first been introduced during their conversation, there was no mistaking just how concerned the more petite of the two females had been. She understood that the Champion who she had befriended had a great passion for exploring things long forgotten in the world, but she couldn’t help but be frightful of all the dangers that were lurking around the corners in deserted areas.

She had considered perhaps attending the exploring with her, but ultimately decided against it out of fear she’d only be a nuisance and would have to be looked after. After some thought about the whole thing, however, the fae-like girl had decided that she would wait nearby the ruins and be there to collect Ziarae after she thought she’d been in there too long. After all, it was beginning to grow dark and who knows what kind of things could be waiting to strike from the shadows of the setting sun…

“Y–You’re bleeding!”

It had been approximately three hours since the Champion had wandered into the ruins and the fairy-type wielder had heavily debated going in after her when the red-haired female finally emerged from the depths of the ruins. The lithe-framed girl had no time to be relived, however, as she quickly spotted a crimson shade seeping through the clothing on the other females left arm.

Wasting no time, she was frantically searching through her bag and ushering the other to sit on some stones nearby.

“You really shouldn’t have gone in there alone,” she cried when the other dismissed her claims of the injury being nothing more than a parting gift from a Pokemon she’d mistakenly disrupted. It didn’t little to ease Ai’s troubled mind and she began pulling out all of her medical supplies in order to appropriately patch the wound up. She was thankful that her friend had taught her to do such a thing in earlier days or perhaps they might of been in a bit of trouble.

Even though the slash was not very deep, it was still bleeding quite a bit and the blonde forced herself to remain calm as she applied the disinfectant.

“I– It might sting a little,” she warned softly, though still clearly frazzled that her friend had been wounded. She gently applied the damp cloth with the clear liquid onto the cut and began gingerly cleaning it and the surrounding area.

↱ = being lost with them .

Towards the more northern section of the land there was a rather swampy route that connected two of the larger cities in all of the region. It began with a clear and rather uncomplicated path that led towards a small playground that housed some swings and a single slide. Further away from where the small recreational area was, however, the density of the path began to thicken and it was soon covered in a series of multi-colored leaves and broken tree stumps. Without warning, the entire dirt trail evaporated as the ground became more damp and before one knew it.. they were stuck in a fork with several different pathways that all looked identical.

And even with broad daylight surrounding the entire trail around them, the lush trees and boggy marsh gave off a rather eerie vibe.

The fae-like girl struggled to remain calm as the sun became more and more hidden underneath a series of shrubs and looming shadows were cast all around them. One would of figured that a native from the nearby city would of been able to effortlessly navigate their way through such a route, but it seemed that the unsuspecting male at her side had chosen the wrong person to guide them towards the Pokeball Factory. And as they moved deeper and deeper into the marshlands, the fairy-type trainer couldn’t help but feel a wash of overwhelming guilt fall over her. 

“I–I’m sorry.. I’d been sure it was this way…”

Her voice came out much meeker than normal and her cheeks flushed in embarrassment as they waded through some soggy areas. She had genuinely wanted to help him when he’d stopped her in town earlier and had thought she could recall the layout well enough from the few times when she’d felt well enough to venture out here in her youth that she could of better navigated him by showing him the way as opposed to drawing a map. She knew of so many neighborhood children who had managed to find their way around here when she had been younger.. surely, it shouldn’t of been this difficult. 

“M–Maybe we should go back..? Oh, but which way is back…” she said softly, more so to herself than her newest companion. Her reddish orbs flickered to the different leads around them and she wondered if perhaps she could phone her parents in Laverre City to come out and find them. Would she even get a signal from her PokeNav out here though..? She didn’t have the latest model and she was sure that the connection would be muddled. And to make matters worse, she hadn’t thought to bring along anything that would of been remotely helpful to them all the way out here.

“O-Oh.. look there.. it’s a house..” she exclaimed once they pushed their way through a few more feet, her eyes sparkling despite how rundown the shaggy thing looked. She beamed towards the light-haired male and gestured towards the creaking porch, completely unaware that something more startling than the trail they were on was waiting inside…

“L– Let’s see if someone can.. give us directions..”

Δ = playing with their hair . 

Shrouded in an abundance of grass and flowers surrounded by sharp cliffs that hosted several sets of stairs, the meadow seemed to be the ideal spot for a peaceful afternoon. She’d even heard that it was ideal for constructing a base as it was so far away in the depths of the region. And even though it was only accessible to those who possessed traits of flying and soaring or could undergo the treacherous underwater reef from the northwestern side, it was still something worth seeing if you ever had the opportunity.

When the Elite Four had proposed the idea, the fae-like girl had been a little hesitant on answering – after all, this was such a magnificent spot that she wasn’t sure if it should of been wasted on someone like her. Surely, there were many contenders who were much more worthy than her. It didn’t help that none of her own Pokemon knew how to fly either so she had been forced to inconvenience the person whom had invited her by having them literally latch onto them in order to make the trek. 

When they had finally landed after about an hour or so.. well, the fairy-type wielder had never been so delighted that she’d agreed to go.

“I – It’s so beautiful..” she whispered a little breathlessly as they landed, her reddish hues widening as she surveyed the area around them. No trainers, no wild Pokemon and no uprooted hiding places where items may of been. It was just a tranquil slice of nature in the middle of nowhere and she couldn’t believe her eyes at how stunning and vibrant everything was.

“Thank you so much for bringing me here,” she said after she’d recovered from her awe, slipping out of her normally timid persona to turn around and smile at the male who had adopted her as his ‘little sister’ despite the fact she was older. 

She held the smile for a few moments before she saw him cross the distance between them – his fingers suddenly in her hair and gently tracing the three-flowered hair accessory on the right side of her head. The sudden action caused her face to flush a bright crimson matching his hair and she vaguely made out that he was saying something about how it matched the colors of the flowers here.

“U–Uhm..” 

She held her breath as he let the ornaments slip through his digits before he gently tugged at her blonde hair, mentioning how happy he was to have such a cute little sister. .. If only he knew she was actually a year or two older than him…

 ☂ = giving them their jumper to keep warm .

With the beginning of the colder months finally coming into play after a rather mild autumn, it was no surprise that a majority of the regions were beginning to feel the frostbitten caress of the near-winters eves. The winds had grown particularly frigid come nightfall and even when the sun shone bright in the sky at high noon, there was no escaping the chilling touch. Even in places that were normally supposed to be abnormally warm even when winter fell upon were beginning to grow frosty…

“A– Achoo!”

The fae-like girl stood outside a familiar place that she’d visited once or twice on her journey while gently rubbing her reddening nose. She’d escaped to the Sinnoh region in hopes that she could soak up a little more vitamin c while both her own hometown and other surrounding regions fell prey to the gelid and dark days that were quickly approaching. 

Despite her original plan, however, it seemed that frosty weather had followed her and even outside of Floraroma Town – where plants blossomed continuously regardless of the time of year – the wind had grown cold and the temperature had gone down several notches.  It was rather disappointing to be met with such a fate, but she supposed there was nothing that she could do about. She’d have to just redirect her attention to perhaps a beach-esque town until the winter completely passed over.

“I’m sorry. That was a bit rude.. ah, but I hope that the flowers will be okay, Cec– e–eh?!”

She’d been idly chatting with the owner of the flower shop when she’d arrived, having met her once or twice on random occasions when she’d come before to look at the new blossoms. They’d been in the midst of conversation when the fairy-type trainer had suddenly turned to the side and sneezed, a shiver running through her as the breeze picked up. She’d turned back to her and apologized for so rudely (despite it being out of her control) interrupting their conversation, but she was met with something even more surprising – something warm and of a forest green color; a sweater that had been on the other female moments before.

“O–Oh, but you’ll get cold..!” 

While she appreciate the gesture wholeheartedly, she didn’t want the other to grow chilled to the bone like she was. However, the apathetic look that the other gave her shortly after her protest was enough to silence Ai and she quickly slipped on the jumper and pressed her flushed cheeks against the little-too-long sleeves.

“Th.. Thank you, Cecilia..”

crimson knight 「ziarae & ai」

[championofspirits-blog]

“It’s perfectly fine if you never heard of it before, I myself didn’t know about much of the Unovan Legendaries until a few years ago. There’s always more to learn, that’s what I’ve always found out.”

Dangerous? Possibly, but Ziarae had confidence she’ll be fine. Her Pokemon were strong and so was her, it shouldn’t be that bad.

“For the inexperienced, but I’ve been in plenty of caves before. I also got Gibdo with me. I’m sure I’ll be fine. Maybe a bruise here or there, but nothing I can handle.”

[moonblxsting]

“J -- Just be sure to take care while you’re traveling.”

The concern was genuine and the more petite of the two females felt a little anxious about the older traveling into such a dangerous place, but her encouragement was also sincere. It wasn’t that she doubted Ziarae’s ability to protect herself or her capability of navigating through treacherous terrain safely, but it was upsetting to hear anyone go through such a tough trial.

“I’m sure that you’ll be able to do it, but please don’t push yourself,” she added softly when the other spared her a light smile. “There are many wondrous thins out there though.. I’m a little envious you are able to so freely explore them.”

Ai wasn’t well-suited to rougher plateaus and wouldn’t most likely get off with something like one or two bruises. She returned the others smile timidly, however, after a moment. 

“Do you.. really like old legends?”

misconception 「aria & ai」

kaitounoshinjitsu

The dense forest had been lush in several different kinds of greenery – ranging as far as from surprisingly well-nourished bluebells to towering oak trees that populated a great bit of the abundance of trees. Crowded together to create an overcast from the bright blue sky above, the large woods only allowed a few sprinkles of warm sunlight in through the strong leaves. The breeze shifted said branches above and the sound almost sounded like a whistle, calling out to those who happened to be strolling in the picturesque woods as if to guide them along.

It truly was a magnificent sight and nothing like the one back home she’d been so accustomed to, but the lithe-framed girl hadn’t any time to admire the scenery given the fact that her faithful Granbull had just suddenly gone off on his own.

“Pl – Please forgive him!!”

And as if that fact alone had not been terrifying enough for the skittish girl – when she had finally found him after countless, frantic moments  – he’d bulldozed over an innocent patron who had also been traveling through the forest. The cause of the violent attack had been that the other had been lingering nearby and had startled the more aggressive fairy-type. It was most likely due to how petite the frame of the other female was -- perhaps he had thought she was suspiciously lurking too close for comfort to his naive trainer.

“H-He’s really not ever like this..” she said in a panicked tone to the person now laying on the forest floor, looming over them with genuine concern. It must of been a sight to see – a fariy-type suddenly latching onto them and then a fae-like young girl following soon after in the midst of a panic – but again, there was no time to think of that. “H-He doesn’t realize how big he is sometimes..!  G-- Granbull, please! A-Are you hurt at all..? I-I’m so sorry.. please forgive us..!”

As if to truly show that he had no regrets about nearly squashing the other female, Granbull merely snorted and removed himself from the younger-looking girl at his own trainers persistence. He moved to be by the fae-like girls side and stood on guard as the fairy-wielder attempted to help the other up.

Despite Ai asking a harmless question he stiffened, adamantly denying that the ice-cream possessed a rather hefty price for such a small snack. Besides, Quinn didn’t want to trouble or guilt her. It was only fair considering she’d bought one no less than half an hour ago and promptly had it knocked to the ground.

“Yes!” his voice pitched in panic. “I-I’m certain. You don’t have to give me something in return. And anyways,” he smiled sheepishly and rubbed the back of his neck. “You didn’t send my ice-cream flying. It’s the least I can do.”

There was a pause in his words as he inspected his own frozen treat. He’d eaten the mound of ice-cream and was left with the cone and a pool of chocolate liquid. Quinn felt self-conscious and a little rude as he tipped the cone up and slurped the rest of it out, though he was extremely quiet in doing so. The waffle cone had a satisfying crunch in his mouth and he savoured the sweet taste.

For a few moments Quinn fondly recalled the multitude of blistering holiday afternoons spent down here with his father, a stripe of zinc cream across his nose while he fished at the dock and played with wild Pokemon in the water. Many a time they’d traversed home with a full bucket of Krabby and at least several cuts on their fingers from the pincers. Afterwards he was always treated to ice-cream. Like it did now, it lifted his mood.

He was surprised when Ai admitted she’d never had the chance to try ice-cream at the beach before. 

“Never?” he repeated. “Well, at least you’re able to say you have now. It’d be a shame to never get to experience something this nice.” In a surge of bravery he presented her with another question. “Um… are you not from Johto? If I’m being honest, you don’t seem like a native.”

In a very rushed and subtle inspection, Quinn noted that she didn’t have the typical appearance of a local. Most had the unique accent and some form of sun-kissed features, whether it be tan lines or a smattering of freckles. He adopted the way of speaking but not the darkened skin, spending his workdays cooped up in the top floor of a skyscraper in air-conditioned comfort. What traits Ai possessed didn’t mirror that of one who lived in Olivine City. It was evident in the fairness of her skin and the way she spoke. 

“Ah, I didn’t mean to be intrusive,” he mumbled. “Sorry.”

[moonblxsting]

The sound of his voice heightening in what she assumed was a bout of strain regarding the subject caused her to glance over curiously at his somewhat anxious profile. He seemed rather determined on telling her that the ice cream he had treated her to was nothing worth worrying about, but she still felt a bit uneasy accepting something with giving him anything in return. Though when he turned to her with a somewhat bashful smile and mention that she hadn’t been the one who’d accidentally knocked the original purchase out of her hands, she decided that it would be best to no longer press the subject and returned tugging of his lips with one smile of her own.

The two of them continued to eat in a comfortable silence for a few moments and she blinked when he suddenly spoke again, obviously surprised that she’d never been able to indulge in ice cream on the beach before.  

“A-Ah.. that probably sounds pretty odd, right..?”

She felt her cheeks begin to heat up despite his change of the subject to be a bit more lighthearted. She supposed it was rather odd that she had never enjoyed such a thing before -- beaches and ice cream were a staple to many during the warmer months, so it probably was rather strange for her to say she’d never experienced this. 

It wasn’t until he mentioned that she didn’t appear to be a native that her timidness was ebbed away somewhat and she took on a nervous smile, shaking her head as he apologized for prying.

“Oh, no.. not at all..” she reassured him softly as she nibbled at her cone and glanced out towards the sparkling sea before them. Now that she did think about it, she probably did look rather out of place among the beach-goers.

Ai gently turned towards Quinn again and offered him another shepish grin of her own. Much like herself, he didn’t seem to fit the persona of a sun-kissed native, but he seemed to know the layout of the land well enough and his voice was as relaxed and casual as the others around to make her think differently. Her own hometown was known so well for being rather proper, so the nonchalant atmosphere of this city eluded her somewhat.

“I’m.. actually traveling from the Kalos region,” she offered as an explanation, pausing only to continue on finishing her ice cream. It seemed that he was almost done and she didn’t want to have him stuck on waiting for her or anything of that nature. She lapped quickly at the frozen treat before leaning over to start biting into the cone.

“We were actually heading to.. uhm.. Violet City.. but I’ve gotten lost and ended up here. Uhm.. what about you..? Do you live nearby..?”

[moonblxsting]

Okay, so I’ve got two replies left to do for this creampuff ~ Since there’s some new people though and because I want to get back into writing Ai a little better.. like this post for a starter! Length will vary depending it might just be a mini, but I’ll cap at 3 for now.

stunning sights 「ailis & ai」

[herskerinne-deactivated20160218]

Ailis seemed interested in hearing Ai’s story, despite the other saying it wouldn’t be anything interesting to listen to. Everyone always had their own beginning with pokémon, and the champion felt like it was somewhat fun to listen to different stories than her own. Other stories were usually more normal than hers after all, but no one really ever realized since she left out many big details.

“That was nice of your parents to give you your first pokémon, though,” she said after, smiling. Some children did have parents who wouldn’t let them catch a pokémon, or wouldn’t know how to catch one for their child, so she considered Ai to be one of the lucky children.

“So you were sick when you were a child? I guess it’s better now since you’re out traveling on your own, right?” Ailis acted like she felt bad for the other girl, cocking her head a bit to the side as she asked the questions, looking somewhat worried.

“I once met a trainer who was sick when he was a child, too. But despite that, he got help catching his first pokémon and traveled around the Hoenn region on his own with his pokémon. I really admire people who stand up like that and still follow their dreams despite their conditions…”

But in the end, he probably wasn’t very relevant to this, so Ailis quickly decided to drop it and get back on track of the original conversation topic again. “Well, if you’re just getting started, that means you still have a big world out there waiting to be explored. And many different kind of pokémon to meet. Starting the journey and seeing new things is always the most fun part.”

[moonblxsting]

It was a little embarrassing to continue droning on and on about herself, but it looked like the blonde before her was interested enough to keep up with the conversation. There hadn’t been much she’d been planning to tell, but it looked like it was at least something. To be completely honest, she’d never really given much thought on her own tale about the beginnings of her journey as the ink on the pages were still fresh, but it was somewhat nice to speak about such a topic-- it made her feel like she was doing well for being on her own despite how many challenges she’d faced thus far. 

And it was pleasant to have someone to speak to them about, even if it was only something minor like this.

“T-That’s right. I was prone to have frequent asthmatic attacks when I was younger, so it was difficult for me to really do anything like ordinary children,” she said after the other smiled at her, her cheeks tinting over in another bright stain of red. She could recall constantly watching the neighborhood children play from outside of her window, desperately longing to join them one day.

“.. I think they saw how lonely I was back then..” she added after a moment, a sheepish smile playing at her lips. She was sure they had regretted picking Jigglypuff back then, however, as he tended to cause more mischievous trouble than act as a faithful guardian. It wasn’t until Snubble had come along a year later that they had actually felt more comfortable.

When Ailis had changed the subject and mentioned that she knew someone who had shared an affinity for wanting to overcome their illness, the fae-like girl couldn’t help but look up curiously. It sounded rather similar to her own story and she smiled and nodded as the blonde continued, clearly showing interest in the tale as she went on.

“It takes a lot of courage to do that... I envy him a little bit,” she said softly once she had finished, her smile remaining though taking on a sadder tone. She quickly cleared her throat, however, and nodded when the Champion mentioned about the world being an oyster to her now.

“Our.. original plan was to travel to Mt. Moon in the Kanto region..” she explained, her attention refocusing as she shuffled over to make room for the approaching meal. “.. We ended up deciding just to explore all around though. A.. Are there any places you’d recommend?”

[oblitusxunum]

Hands reaching out to rub the spot that he had bumped his head against, he could only hope that it wasn’t bruised as badly as he thought it was.“Y-Yeah…I’m fine! I’m fine! Guess this is what I get for not paying attention to whatever’s in front of me. Ow..” Getting up from his prone position, Fay did his best to reassure her with a smile that everything was alright.

“I’m alright, really! It was just a small bump is all!” He pretended to knock the back of his head as if making a point that it wasn’t as bad as it seems. However, he winced from the action once his hand made contact with his head. 

Guess it hurt more than I thought..

“W-Well…at least it was the back of my head and not the front right? That would have hurt way more!” He paused before realizing the way he had said that sentence was wrong. “N-Not that it hurts I mean!” Laughing nervously, he nodded along with her idea as he pulled her along gently to one of the cafe’s tables nearby.

Pulling out the seat for her, he went and took the seat that was directly facing her before sighing softly. He wondered how often he had these sorts of accidents, maybe it was the karma of not getting hit by the car earlier before he scoffed at the idea. It was supposed to be for something bad one had done, not something bad that was going to happen to one. Another idea thought it to be the one where he had thought of tricking her to accepting his treat, that was still up in the air for the moment.

He was pulled out of his thoughts to a waiter that had arrived to their table, asking for their order. Realizing that he had probably been there waiting for a fair bit for them, Fay rubbed the back of his neck in slight embarrassment. Perhaps he should save the daydreaming for later when he wasn’t in the company for others.

“Um…I’ll have an Iced Coffee for me. What about you, Ai? Anything catch your fancy here?” 

[moonblxsting]

Despite his constant reassurance that he was perfectly fine and that he hadn’t sustained any injuries as a result of the accident, the fae-like female couldn’t help but look at him with a great deal of concern. Reddish hues surveyed the area surrounding his cranium and she tilted over to ensure there wasn’t something like blood sticking to his ebony locks. Once her inspection was cleared, she pulled away from him a little to glance at his facial expression. Even if he had mentioned that it wasn’t nearly as bad as it had appeared or that he proposed some humorous conversation to lighten the mood... well, she couldn’t help but be worried.

And the fact that he winced seconds later after gently rapping his head did nothing to ease her anxiousness.

“A -- Are you sure that you’re alright..?” she spoke softly as he chatted animatedly about how thankful he was that it was the back of his skull that had been smacked as opposed to the front. She was thankful for such a lively companion who seemed so kind and personable, albeit a bit clumsy, but she couldn’t help but wonder if this was going to be a continuous occurrence.

“O--Oh, uhm.. thank you..”

The petite blonde felt her cheeks begin to heat up when they approached an unoccupied table, Fay moving away from her to pull her chair out for her. It was a gentlemanly gesture and she couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed. He seemed to be a bit flighty and what one would call truly oblivious, but he truly did have very delicate manners. Once he turned away and headed to take a seat across from her, she quickly folded her skirts under her and sat as politely as possible. 

While he directed his attention elsewhere for the moment, the fairy-type wielder quickly preoccupied herself with the menu at the edge of the table. There weren’t a lot of choices given how small the cafe was, but she had her heart set on a nice cup of tea after such an exhausting encounter. It was bad enough she had felt apprehensive upon her initial arrival, but she now couldn’t shake the growing worry for her new companion. He seemed to be fine -- from the way he chuckled nervously once the waiter arrived and took their order -- but she really couldn’t be quite sure.

“J -- Just a hot tea with lemon, please...” she said gently as the waiter nodded and quickly jotted down their orders. Once he had fled to the inner portion of the cafe, Ai turned her attention back to Fay and addressed him with a rather timid smile.

“.. Are you sure you’re alright..? I’m sorry.. and here I’d ask you to come along with me..”

Rem’s fingers curled into fists on the ground. Hikaru circled around the two, before settling down at Rem’s side.

“I’m r-really lucky - ow! - that you were here,” they said, watching Ai’s face as she worked. Rem tried to force a smile, but it came out as a grimace. “W-what’s your name?

[moonblxsting]

“I -- It’s almost done!”

The older of the two petite-framed smiled gently towards them as she continued tending to the wound. Thankfully, it looked much worse than it actually was so that would be a good thing for the recovery. The blonde quickly finished sterilizing the gash and wrapped it up tightly in some bandages she’d been carrying along in her first aid kit -- it would be a little difficult to walk on, but it should heal nicely with no chance of scarring. 

“Alright, there you go. It should be alright in a few days.. be sure to be mindful of where you’re going though,” she warned them softly, turning her attention to Hikaru and nodding to make sure they heard as well. 

When the other inquired about her name, the blonde smiled and bowed her head politely, “My name is Ai.. I’m glad that I was here too to help..”

   『 ♚ 』  —   What was he getting himself into? Just because he felt bad, he ended up lying to this poor girl instead of just telling her he didn’t know. Oh well. This definitely wasn’t the worst situation he’s been in. Besides, Slateport wasn’t that big! At least… It didn’t seem as big as Castelia… Surely, Akira could find the museum in no time! Not to mention, he was on vacation. Why not see the sights? Especially since he’s with an adorable new partner.

“Alright! Let’s get going, shall we?”

He began to lead the way with his new companion by his side. Where they were going, who knew? But they’d have to make it eventually. Plus, Kito seemed to be having fun with this new friend they made. Twirling around her, acting all cute and sweet. This definitely not like his Reuniclus at all, though, Akira did have to admit he liked how calm he was.

“Oh! I forgot to introduce myself! I’m Akira Hiiragi.”

The rather amiable atmosphere that the Reuniclus gave off was rather endearing and the fae-like female couldn’t help but be enchanted by how he twirled about her and tugged innocently at her clothing and hair in an attempt to gain her attention. She allowed herself to be tugged in every direction and smiled at him and laughed quietly when he moved to show off a little. His little antics reminded her fondly of how some of her own partners had been in the past when she were younger and how they bustled around in order to be as considerate as they could possible be. 

When the male before her motioned for them to begin heading towards the museum, the smaller-framed girl nodded and pressed forward with the psychic-type in tow. She’d been a bit anxious about traveling in such a large city alone, but it seemed that things were going to look up after all.

“It’s nice to meet you, Akira-kun,” she said softly after he had introduced himself, the smile at her lips tugging upwards as she bowed her head politely. The male seemed to be so polite and personable, something she was truly glad for given her rather timid nature. “My name is Ai Maeda... thank you again for taking the time to show me to the museum, that was very kind of you...”

She was genuine in every sense of the word. She truly never would of imagined someone would of been so thoughtful as to show her the way to her destination.
