[incoming call from BBB]

Reynold was just working on his usual scientist business when he paused at the phone. He didn’t look at the number, he just answered it and placed the holocastor on his shoulder-still working.

“Freeman speaking.” The blonde let out a light yawn while taking some bullets out of a dead body.

[vilesofvenom]

Even though King slithered away, he placed himself on the couch, his head on the top edge staring and flicking his tongue at Barnes still. Oh well. No guard duty for him when Rey was around.

The blonde’s shoulders shot up at the hug. At first his arms went out but the more he was comfortable, his arms relaxed and finally hugged Barnes back, his head over his shoulder. Reynold blushed, “I-I am, yeah-! I’m glad you’re here too!” 

..That was dumb. Let’s try again, Reynold said to himself.

“But yes-! Make yourself at home, there’s plenty of snacks a-and..I’ll be back here to hang out after I shower. Sorry for the wait, but really make yourself comfortable. A-and now that King is off duty he won’t attack..” 

His green eyes shot up to his Arbok and hissed, “Right?”

King flicked his tail, rolled his eyes, and replied, “Bokkk,” 

“Good..see?” Reynold looked back towards Barnes-facing him.

[plainpastbbb-blog]

Barnaby barely bit back the suggestion of joining him. He didn’t want to overwhelm his boyfriend too much. 

“I’ll be here,”He hummed instead. He glanced between trainer and pokemon during their little conversation. It may be that the Arbok wasn’t supposed to attack, but he’d keep his cane with him, just in case.

[vilesofvenom]

“Oh? What place..? And..Cerberus…?” Reynold recognized it as apart of the old human legends, so his mind immediately went to it being a dog-type pokemon. He took a big bite out of his meal. He liked biting more than he could chew after all and this way it would give him a chance to chew and gather all the nutrients.

He’s totally a doctor guys.

Finishing that piece he murmured, “..Now I’m curious. Hah..I guess I have no excuse now and..you’ve qwelled my fears..” Reynold smiled, blushing, “..Thanks..” 

[plainpastbbb-blog]

“Just a breeding place. I...obtained Cerberus’ egg there several years ago,”Barnaby informed,”He’s my Houndoom.”

He covered his mouth to try and stifle his chuckling at Rey’s large bite. He took another small bite.

Barnaby smiled back,”You’re welcome~ I’m glad to help.”

Reynold was just working on his usual scientist business when he paused at the phone. He didn’t look at the number, he just answered it and placed the holocastor on his shoulder-still working.

“Freeman speaking.” The blonde let out a light yawn while taking some bullets out of a dead body.

[vilesofvenom]

He flicked his tongue and lightly tilted his head, but still was wary. If this stranger claimed to be Barnaby then that’d be interesting. He’d hold off attacking…for now. For now the large snack towered over the white-haired, ready to give him a paralyzing glare just in case the human attacked. 

…Then he’d get a free meal~

Reynold headed home as quickly as possible. Barnes was coming! And he was so distracted that he forgot that King was home..always guarding. It didn’t occur to him until he unlocked his apartment door and spotted the two. Still. And looking up at each other. 

“King!” He at first started strictly but then turned to Barnes and blushed, “B-Barnes-!” 

Darn. King flicked his tongue again and lowered himself down to slither back to the living room. No human dinner tonight. 

[plainpastbbb-blog]

Awww he didn’t get to snoop. But the Arbok was gone, and Rey was here, which was more important. 

“Reeeey~” He greeted, wrapping his arms around the other in a hug. “You’re here!” Obviously,”Happy Valentine’s Day~”

Reynold was just working on his usual scientist business when he paused at the phone. He didn’t look at the number, he just answered it and placed the holocastor on his shoulder-still working.

“Freeman speaking.” The blonde let out a light yawn while taking some bullets out of a dead body.

[vilesofvenom]

“W-wait-!” Reynold had just remembered something, but..Barnes was already off. Oops. Guess he would find out..which should be fine. His lover was very strong.

…His…lover? 

Chills ran up Rey’s spine immediately as he started to get ready and head out. 

Meanwhile, once Barnes took a step in the house, a hissing in warning could be heard. And yet before reacting, a abnormally large Arbok rose himself up in front of the white-haired and glared straight down at him, “Chaa..bok..” 

[plainpastbbb-blog]

Maybe he should’ve waited outside. He clicked his tongue a couple of times softly, trying to decide what to do here. 

“Hey there,”He cooed softly,”Nice Arbok...I’m Barnaby...Rey’s friend.” Could it even understand people talk? He held onto his cane a bit tighter, just in case.

[vilesofvenom]

“I know, but ten year olds and kids have much better connection to Pokemon and wild creatures than me.” Rey quickly defended and gulped. He placed his napkin down and set up his utensils at seeing their food arrive. 

He took a deep breathe. Maybe..raising an egg wouldn’t be so ad though? From the sound of it, perhaps it wouldn’t be so hard? 

“I’ll try. Just need to find a Snivy egg then.” The blonde assured, “I can imagine you like Baby Pokemon, huh..?”

[plainpastbbb-blog]

“Well...Maybe?”Barnaby said. He hadn’t really thought about it,”I just know from experience that they’re...easier to train them in specific tasks.”

Barnaby mirrored Rey when their food came. Once they both got their food, he started eating.

After swallowing a bite, he offered,”I might know a place. It’s been awhile since I got Cerberus’s egg, so I probably could go back by now.”

[bloodxbrothers]

The blonde chuckled, “His teeth has been coming in for both of them. But Wyatt is extra…bitey? I don’t know where he got that from.” He was serious this time. He was never bitey, instead he was more…electric-y and punchy. 

Willow cooed and once eating some of her applesauce, she grinned, cooing and clapping.

“I know this one’s a Fairy though..those pretty sharp teeth coming in, huuuhh? Ready? Let’s go for another, can you say yes?”

“Yyyyy…aaa…?” Willow opened her mouth, ready. 

“Very good~ Now..yeah-something Star Wars-y..maybe like a cup or mug? Hm..well you can’t go wrong with chocolates and flowers, though. Especially chocolate that’s personalized.”

[plainpastbbb-blog]

“Haha, I’ve noticed,”Barnaby hummed. He fed Wyatt more, although the baby was distracted by his sister’s cooing. He babbled at her a bit.

“Customized chocolates?”Barnaby echoed,”Hmm...Yeah...I guess I can go Star Wars-y... I’m already getting him flowers and chocolate, I just...”

[vilesofvenom]

“O-ohh..I see. That makes sense. You are a skilled Rocket soldier..I’d expect nothing less, then.” Reynold observed, slightly swooning, “I bet you’re strong and good at fighting..along with your Pokemon, hmm?” 

“Interesting..perhaps I’ll do that, or something of the sort. I don’t want it to turn into a bad Pokemon just because I’m not good with..children.” He dismissed immediately and drank his drink. Despised children, and he could never understand them. But it was good because they shouldn’t be around a dangerous man like him.

[plainpastbbb-blog]

Barnaby couldn’t help to start laughing. “R-rey. Ten year olds raise pokemon from eggs. I don’t think you’re giving yourself enough credit! I doubt it’d turn into a bad pokemon because you’re not good with children. But yeah, the day care is a decent alternative~” 

He was kind of disappointed that Rey wasn’t good with kids. But he really didn’t need to be in charge of children anyway. And could always help with Willow and Wyatt.

[bloodxbrothers]

Willow felt like eating, but also wanted to drip it out. It felt weird..but neat! “Bl.blll..” 

“O-oh Willow-no..no..like this..see?” Baxter started to mimic eating the apple sauce, his tongue out, and making funny faces.

The platinum-haired girl chuckle and laughed, which..made the applesace go out of her mouth.

“Hehe, silly~ You’ve got such a funny faaace~” The blonde grinned, laughing with her. He glanced at Wyatt, smiling still and slowly scooping up more applesauce and tried feeding her again, “Laugh..but with mouth closed. You love this stuff. Now..aaahh..” He, too opened his mouth..and with that Willow did too. She laughed but planced her hands on her mouth.

“So smart~” Baxter beamed and answered, “A doctor..you should get him a stethoscope-or a Chansey? Chanseys are..very doctor-y. Or something Star Wars like?” He perked up and murmured to both Wyatt and Willow, “A Star wars kid, like you twooo~” 

[plainpastbbb-blog]

Wyatt was more interested in the spoon. Once it was in his mouth, he bit down and wouldn’t let go.

“Ah, Wyatt,”Barnaby sighed,”can I have the spoon back?” The kid just gnawed on it some in response, applesauce coming out around the spoon. Barnaby made a face, and waited until Wyatt had his mouth open, before taking the spoon back.

“The spoon’s not even the yummy part~”Barnaby chuckled, and tried again. Wyatt swallowed the applesauce, but still didn’t let go of the spoon. He wanted to eat that too! Barnaby got the spoon back when Wyatt laughed at his dad.

“Chansey doesn’t suit him at all!”Barnaby laughed, trying to picture Rey with one. “Star Wars would probably be the safest bet...But it’s not very romantic, is it?”

[vilesofvenom]

HE WAS COMING OVER. BARNES WAS COMING OVER?! Rey’s hand shook, but he finished and let out a small squeak, “O-of course, I don’t mind. You can come anytime. I-I just..” 

The blonde took off his rubber gloves and adjusted his glasses, “My address is… [address here]. I..can’t wait to see you. Key is under the mat, and I’ll need to take a shower b-but..y-yeah…” 

[plainpastbbb-blog]

“Ok~ I can’t wait to see you either! Ta~”With that he hung up, and went to his closet. He quickly picked out a nice blue button down, and black slacks. He decided to leave his signature cravat behind.

He then grabbed his chocolates, flowers, a wrapped box containing a mini death star, and his cane, and left for the address he was given. 

He stood outside of the door debating on going in or not. On one hand, it was rude to barge in without being let in, especially since it was his first time over. On the other hand he was told where the key was. That was kind of like being let in, right? And when else would he have a chance to snoop without Rey knowing?

With a nod, he got the key, and unlocked the door. He placed the key back where he found it, stepped inside, and locked the door back up. He set his gifts for Rey down on a table, and started looking around, careful to keep an ear out for Rey, so he can pretend that he wasn’t snooping when his Valentine got here.

He gave a light gasp, “O-of course, I’m almost done for the night..would you like to come over o-or..me come over..? Aah..anywhere is fine really..” Reynold bit his tongue and was just finishing the last bullets and stitches.

[plainpastbbb-blog]

“I can come over if you don’t mind the intrusion~”Barnaby chirped. Realizing he didn’t know where the other lived he continued,”Ah... Where would I be coming over to?”

“Doing some last minute work~” Rey echoed, blushing at his voice, “Wh-what about you, Barnes..? Happy Valentine’s Day to you..y-you know~” His insides were starting to dance now.

[plainpastbbb-blog]

“Ah~? Happy Valentine’s Day to you too~”Barnaby responded,”Since it iiis Valentine’s Day and all, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out now~?”

“I hope so too. We haven’t had a single clue as to where they took her. There hasn’t even been a ransom letter or anything…”

[plainpastbbb-blog]

“Hm...That is odd...I wish there was something I could tell you...”
