Hazy Days (III)

Summary: It’s not a date. Kaki will take what he can get anyways. Duo Shigesato and Kakisato for @catsubun/ @beriskara‘s birthday conga.

Satoshi is having a great time. He’d gotten lucky and asked Satoshi out, and the boy had lit up, before asking if Shigeru was coming too. So the three of them were walking through the park, Kaki and Shigeru glaring at each other when Satoshi was out of reach.

"Look!” Satoshi tugs on the Policeman’s sleeve, and he obediently looks towards where Satoshi is pointing, Shigeru looking faintly amused. It’s a bunch of carnival games. Kaki smiles at the sight of it. “Let’s go play!” He insists, and the two boys immediately spark with competitive energy.

“That sounds like a great idea Sato-chan,” Shigeru cuts in smoothly. Satoshi blushes happily, and Kaki glares at him. You snooze you lose, Shigeru mouths over Satoshi’s head, grinning smugly. Kaki’s hand settles on Satoshi’s back, and nudges him forward. He raises an eyebrow, and Shigeru glares. He winks, and Satoshi goes on ahead. “Getting kind of cocky there Kaki,” Shigeru murmurs, walking past them both. “I think I see a target game - want to give that a try?”

“Sure!” Satoshi beams, accepting Shigeru’s hand as it’s offered, the boy happily getting swept away. “C’mon Kaki! Shigeru’s a real whiz at target games!” Kaki scowls at the ground, but chases after them both anyways.

Much to his vast annoyance, Shigeru actually was really good at these kinds of games. For every target he managed to get, Shigeru could get a dozen with such graceful ease it was a little horrifying. How did people compete with this kind of bullshit skill? Kaki grumbles under his breath as Shigeru wins again, Satoshi cheering them both on from the sidelines.

Kaki makes it into second place, which is a consolation, but Shigeru still won, which was really annoying. Kaki accepts his tickets, seeing Shigeru do the same and pocket them while asking the vendor a question. Before he can listen further, Satoshi barrels into him, babbling about how cool he’d been, and he was the first person he’d ever seen give Shigeru a run for his money before. Even if Satoshi was lying to spare his feelings, it was certainly a sweet gesture. Shigeru walks over, ruffling Satoshi’s hair and making his cute hat fall off, though he catches it with ease.

“I’m still unsure as to why you two are wearing your uniforms.” Kaki admits at last as they’re walking to the next game. “I’m required to, but I can’t see why either of you are.“

“I don’t know either,” Shigeru muttered, and he had to bite his tongue at the sour tone in his voice. “Satoshi has to wear his uniform during the week because that’s when he’s on duty, but I’m stuck wearing this all of the time.”

“At least you look good in blue,” Satoshi offers both of them. Shigeru dips down to kiss the top of a fluffy crown, and the boy squeaks up at him, cheeks turning an adorable shade of pink. Kaki glares at him for it, and Shigeru smirks.

“Thanks honeybuns,” Shigeru chuckles. Predictably, Satoshi only blushes deeper. Kaki can’t echo the sentiment without seeming slow on the ball, and Shigeru smirks - playfully this time. It doesn’t take long before Satoshi is distracted, and Shigeru leans in, smirking. “C’mon. Up your game Kaki. This game’s no fun if I’m always winning.” He winks, and Kaki regains his senses enough to quickly dart past him, arm settling on Satoshi’s shoulder.

“You look like you’ve found something,” He says, flipping Shigeru off from behind his back. Shigeru gives a strangled noise that sounds almost like a laugh in response, and he continues to smile.

He’d won this one at least. There’s still a few hours, so Kaki has to be on his best behavior. The three of them continue to play, and while Kaki continues to lose to Shigeru, he gives it his best shot anyways. Shigeru is light and nimble, but Kaki has power behind him, and they’re starting to tie, Satoshi excitedly cheering for them with every game won or lost, beaming at them both.

The evening is drawing to a close, and Shigeru is staring at a vendor thoughtfully.

“I’ll be back in a minute - I’m going to cash these in.” Whatever he’s planning, Kaki is grateful, it allows him talk to Satoshi alone.

“I had lots of fun with you guys,” Satoshi beams up at him, and Kaki grins back, warm. “We should do it again sometime.”

“Likewise. But maybe next time, we can do it alone? Just the two of us.” Satoshi thinks about it, and hums.

“Like a date?” He asks curiously. His heart thuds, but before he can go too far, lean in closer to kiss Satoshi’s cheek, the boy’s phone rings. He jerks back, and Satoshi is too distracted to notice, lighting up at the sight of the caller ID. He looks up though, with an apologetic smile.

“I can wait.” But Kaki knows that Satoshi will have forgotten the question before the call was over. Satoshi gives him an absent pat on the face, wandering away to answer the phone with a big smile.

“Man, bad timing,” Shigeru’s voice is dark with humor, the teenager joining Kaki. Kaki glares at Shigeru.

“You set up that call,” He accuses, and Shigeru grins.

“My, you think I’m that much of an evil mastermind? I’m flattered, I really am.” Shigeru’s shit eating grin is truly something to behold. “Next time though, if you’re gonna get him to agree to a date, don’t do it somewhere that I can still hear you.“ He winks, tucking the small bundle into his apron pocket. “But I gotta give it to you, that was pretty fucking smooth.” Kaki glares, but his lips twitch.

Alright, Shigeru wanted to play hardball?

It was on.

Foamy Sea

Summary: Pearl hunting. Kaki didn’t know how to hunt for fish - how was he supposed to hunt for pearls??? Lucky for him, he’s got a cute admirer who keeps throwing things at him.

You know the drill by now. I haven’t made @beriskara​ / @catsubun​ scream with joy recently so I thought I’d do something new for cutie OTP, and because I’ve never participated in MerMay before.

Note: I have made a Ko-Fi account - Seniichi

“Pearls they said. It’d be fun they said.” Kaki glares down at the water, kicks at the sandy beach with a snort of irritation. He turns on his heels to storm away from the beach, muttering obscenities under his breath. He was a Fire-dancer, the Trial Captain on top of a Volcano, for the love of Tapu Lele! Who expected him to be able to fish for Pearls!?!?

His friends thought it was funny that he couldn’t. It wasn’t. Ever. He crosses his arms and huffs as he sits on the rocky outcropping. He’s being childish, yes, he’s aware, but there was something inherently not funny about this. He hadn’t gone swimming in enough ages that he didn’t even want to risk it. After a moment, his temper cools, and he stares down at the water.

What a time to not have his father’s support. His father was a pearl diver, he didn’t doubt that he -

Something hits his forehead, and startled, he looks up as it plops into his lap. He peers suspiciously out towards the ocean, wonders if Lana had gotten her Pokemon to annoy him.

Nothing. He gives a last suspicious look, before looking back down and making a surprised noise at what he finds. It’s a pearl. It’s about the same color as his eyes, and he rolls it between his fingers, confused and a little wary. Another little plink, and another one joins itself in his lap. Again, his head shoots up, and he doesn’t see anything. Only the sound of the waves, and a couple of leaping Wishiwashi. It is a little strange to see Wishiwashi in this part of the ocean, but he dismisses it. There’s no way that it’s important. He picks up the other one eyes it suspiciously. It’s a pretty sea-blue, and he admires how it catches the light, shining gold in the right angles.

Well. It was kind of strange, but he’d take it. It’s not like he could swim all that well anyways.

As he left, he failed to notice the sight of dark hair bobbing in the water, watching him leave.

He’s back the next day, renewed determination to look and find his own pearls. There’s Wishiwashi everywhere, and he’s swarmed immediately around his feet, the fish eagerly rubbing up against him, creating a froth of white water. Looking around, he notices that the beach is empty - this many Wishiwashi usually make a school, but as far as he could tell, they weren’t forming one. It was a little weird, but hey, beggars weren’t to be choosers. He pats the top of one’s head, and he has to yelp when he feels his pockets gain weight.

The suspicion nagging in his mind is proven right when he pulls out a handful of pearls.

He eyes them, but they have the most innocent of expressions - and the fact that he knows what the guilty face upon a Wishiwashi’s face looks like actually makes his head hurt a little. He observes them again, but sighs slightly and pockets them, reaches his hands out to pat the assembled fish. They swarm up under his hands, wriggle eagerly around him, and he can’t help but smile. They’re like Rockruffs of the sea, he supposes, once he’s finished patting them all as thanks for a job well done.

“Thanks.“ He says at last. “But you know, I’ve gotta learn on my own somehow,“ He says that with a smile, tries to soften the blow so they don’t get upset. The water froths up again, but they assemble and make an arrow, and then a question mark rather than mob him. Carefully, he treads through the water, swimming deeper into the ocean. Immediately, they swarm around him, wrapping around his body like a shield and swimming in one single direction. He laughs a little - this is kind of weird, but he’s been working with an even weirder Salazzle for months, so this he could handle some overly affectionate fish. It doesn’t bother him, and he manages to reach the spot he’d been directed to.

Well. Here goes nothing. He shakes his head slightly to himself, diving under the water. He dives deep, slowly following the Wishiwashi. His lungs are burning, but he manages to reach the area and plucks up a few of the oysters before beating a hasty retreat back up into the surface. He’s desperately gasping for air, so he can be forgiven for not noticing that there was someone next to him until they poke his forehead.

His surprised scream is totally justified - there is no way it isn’t.

The boy is pouting at him, arms crossed - and how was he swimming like that?

“You know, I threw those pearls at you so you wouldn’t do this,” He says accusingly. He’s open-mouthed, trying to keep up with the conversation. “I can’t understand why you’d swim again after you almost drowned years ago!” He said, uncrossing his arms and poking his chest. He looks down at the boy, and that’s when he sees it.

The boy has a tail.

Kaki is utterly justified in his next move.

He faints.

When Kaki wakes up, he’s on the beach, and the strange boy is scowling at him, tail stretched  out and dipping into the sea. He pokes Kaki’s nose, and he flaps his hand in front of his face to keep his hand away.

“You fainted,” The boy says accusingly. Kaki stares at him.

“You’re half fish.” He says, as though it was self-explanatory. “You’re half fish.” Satoshi scowls and he’s abruptly hit in the face with seaweed. Spluttering, Kaki pulls the seaweed out of his face and throws it back.

It was the start of a beautiful friendship.

Hazy Days (II)

Summary: I saw Policeman Kaki and I decided that today would be dorks fighting for one (1) oblivious adorable boi. Feat. Pikachu who is done with this already. For @catsubun / @beriskara because she needs cute.

Note: If you like my work, please consider donating to my Ko-Fi account - Seniichi.

Kaki is being awful nice, Satoshi thinks as he locks up the Centre for the evening, the other boy trying very hard to hold a conversation with him. Kaki was a new Police-hopeful that had been assigned to Pallet Town, and Satoshi - as he always would - had greeted the newcomer with open arms.

“Thanks for keeping an eye on me,” Satoshi smiles at Kaki, hefting his bag with Pikachu inside, the little mouse giving a tiny squeak, before going back to sleep. “You really didn’t have to,” He says, walking down the street towards the Pokemart.

“Someone should,” Kaki says modestly, scratching a finger against his cheek as they draw nearer. Satoshi gets his keys out, and Kaki blinks. “You work here too?“ He’s curious, but Satoshi doesn’t notice the frown on his face, intent on unlocking the door.

“Mmh? No, but Shigeru does. This is one of the bigger Pokemarts, and he’s left alone most of the time to close up, so I lend him a hand - the Centre doesn’t take nearly as much work, so I generally get done about an hour or two before him.” He misses the look on Kaki’s face, opening the door. “Do... you want to join us? I’m sure Shigeru would really like the help - customers can be a little mean.”

Kaki, meanwhile, is staring at the mess on the floor from spilled product.

“Only a little?” He questions incredulously. “If this was outside, I’d have to arrest someone for vandalism.” Kaki says to Satoshi, disbelieving.

“You could arrest them inside, but the Jenny clan doesn’t usually patrol inside of a building. We’re supposed to have security for that.” A third voice makes Kaki jump, and he meets eyes with a boy just slightly taller than him, a crooked smirk on his face and an attitude that makes Kaki itch to pull his handcuffs out and arrest him. He strides past Kaki and pulls Satoshi into a hug, kissing his cheek in greeting, much to Kaki’s nonverbal but noticeable irritation. “They never do, since the customer can do whatever the hell they want.” Satoshi is beaming, bright cheeked and soft pink flush over his skin at the open affection as he looks up at Shigeru with an adoring smile.

Kaki’s stomach does a flip, and after Shigeru has let Satoshi know what he should be okay with doing, the two are left alone. Shigeru draws up close, fingertip pressing against his chest, cocky smirk firmly in place as he gives Kaki a look.

“Let’s make something clear hon.” Shigeru smiles, and it’s not at all nice. “Don’t think you have any chance with my Satoshi.” He pulls back, pats Kaki on the head, and walks away, cool as one might please, leaving Kaki furiously scowling after him. Satoshi putters back, arms full of cleaning supplies, when he looks between them. Shigeru is undeterred, still smiling warmly at Satoshi, but Kaki doesn’t have the chance to pull his expression into line after that infuriating brat’s words. He sighs, gives them both a look.

“Are you two fighting already?” He complains good-naturedly. Shigeru raises an eyebrow.

“Not that I’m aware of,” Shigeru says with a smile, pulling the objects out of Satoshi’s hands and planting a kiss to the top of a head. “Thanks for finding these for me Sato-chan.” Satoshi turns a pleased pink, and Kaki has to bite a growl from escaping his throat. “I should have the displays cleaned up in about ten minutes, and then all that’s left is... eugh. The food section.” He pulls a face, and Satoshi pats his arm gently.

“I can at least mop up the mess,” He offers. “I’m used to it, I work at the Centre, remember?“ Shigeru shakes his head.

“No, no, you know how it goes. I need to stop being so squeamish. Just fix up the displays, and if you want, you can spend some time with your friend. I’ll finish up here.” Shigeru offers it out, and Kaki manages to unweld his jaw long enough to speak himself.

“I don’t mind staying - there must be something I can do.” Shigeru eyes him, before giving Satoshi a significant look that he feels he missed out on.

“You any good at cleanliness codes?” He gives a slight shake of the head. “You’ll have to be up to date with it before I can let you clean up anything or fix the displays.” He sounds apologetic, but when Satoshi’s head swivels his way to give a reassuring pat to his arm, Shigeru lets himself smirk at Kaki in challenge.

His right brow twitches. Oh, so that’s how he wanted to play it.

Since then, Kaki had been a nigh-constant presence in their afternoon visits, stealing Satoshi away after work before Shigeru could get even two words in. He’d also brought himself up to speed on the codes, and since he got off even earlier than both of them thanks to the labor laws, he would help Satoshi close up for the evening at the Centre, doing his best to make up for the lost time.

But no matter what he did, Satoshi seemed glued to Shigeru, their shared history a hurdle for him to overcome, and Shigeru’s familiarity with him had done more to endear Satoshi to him than Kaki could imagine. He’s finishing up a display when he overhears them, and he wanders a little closer.

“Shige-kun, you don’t seem to like Kaki much,” Satoshi is sweeping debris while Shigeru is wiping down each shelf, getting rid of stray chips or broken bits of packaging from where customers had tried to steal stuff.

“Mmh? He’s nice enough, but I think he’s the one who doesn’t like me. I mean, I’ve barely seen you in the last couple of weeks, and I’m starting to miss having my cheerful partner around.” Satoshi’s quiet for a while, and the sound of the broom is all he hears.

“I hadn’t noticed,” Satoshi admits shyly. “I didn’t mean to leave you out of so much Shige-kun.” The other boy laughs softly, and though Kaki can’t see it, he’s sure Shigeru is shaking his head.

“It’s fine Sato-chan, you should be having fun with your friends. But come visit sometime, would you? Eevee is starting to pine for you, and I never made good on that promise to help you learn how to cook that one meal you really liked because of the blackout.” Satoshi’s breath hitches, and Kaki desperately wants to know what that was all about. What blackout? He mechanically moves back to the display, and finally, Satoshi speaks up again.

“Y-yeah. I’d like that.” He hears a soft puttering of feet, and he finishes the display as Satoshi comes around the corner. Satoshi eyes the display, and he immediately checks it for flaws. He can’t see any... “Kaki, I’m going to stay with Shige-kun tonight, so you shouldn’t wait up for me,” he says with a smile. Kaki gives a stiff nod.

“Yeah. Have fun.” Kaki notices how Satoshi’s smile dims, and he realizes belatedly how the tone of his words comes out. Dammit. “Argh... I mean - I just, really like spending time with you,” He blurts out, and that seems to do something, making the smile reappear at full strength.

“I like spending time with you too! But I’ve been ignoring Shige-kun a lot, and that’s a bit unfair to him.” Frankly, Kaki didn’t care what was unfair to Shigeru, but he knows better than to say so to Satoshi’s face. Satoshi’s smile dims slightly again, and he curses internally because he’d done something wrong again. Shigeru comes around the corner, before glancing at both of them. It takes him less than a second of glancing between them to realize the issue, and Shigeru immediately plasters on a smile that looks so effortless that Kaki envies it.

“Is something wrong?” Shigeru asks in that cool tone of his, and Satoshi nods a little. Shigeru hums slightly, before hugging Satoshi with an arm. “If you’d like Sato-chan, you can head home, I’ll take a raincheck on what we were discussing earlier.” He says the words lightly, but Satoshi shakes his vigorously.

“I want to spend time with you.” He insists, before giving Kaki a slightly disappointed look. “I’ll see you around Kaki,” He doesn’t quite tell Kaki to leave, but he knows that tone well enough. He hated seeing Satoshi’s smile turn so dim, and this time it was his fault. He makes his goodbyes, and he can see Shigeru giving him a frown, which only incenses him more.

He doesn’t see Satoshi for a few days after that, the boy obliquely avoiding him to a point that Satoshi had left the center before his usual visits. Shigeru he sees more of, but he doesn’t seem too pleased to see him either, which is a surprise given how smug he’d been at having Satoshi to himself.

Kaki is doing another patrol when at last he sees Satoshi, the boy carrying groceries up the hill to his home. Satoshi trips, and it’s instinct that makes him immediately lunge and catch Satoshi before he or his things fall to the ground. Pikachu, perched on Satoshi’s shoulder, is a lost cause, falling off of his human with a squeak.

Satoshi looks grateful for all of two seconds, before realizing who it is and his smile turns into a scowl. The boy yanks himself away, and Kaki gives him an apologetic look. Pikachu gives a quiet ‘chaaa of hello, but doesn’t do anything to help him fix the mess he’d made.

“Satoshi - I’m sorry,” He stutters over his words, and if anything, that seems to make the boy angrier at him.

“I’m not the one you should be apologizing to,” The boy says stiffly. “Shigeru at least apologized for being a jerk about wanting to keep me to himself,” Satoshi’s head is held high, and Kaki realizes that he’s staring at Satoshi in disbelief, which he snaps out of, though it doesn’t do anything but irritate the cute boy. “You should be apologizing to Shigeru for how you treated him. He’s my friend too, and the way you two are acting is just stupid.” He turns on his heel and stomps off cutely, skirt fluttering in the wind. Pikachu rubs against his leg briefly, before chasing after his human. Kaki heaves a sigh, and an amused voice drifts up to him from behind.

“Well, that’s you told, hm?” Shigeru sounds amused, the teenager carrying his own groceries in hand. “Don’t mind Sato-chan. Give him another week and I’m sure he’ll forgive you without the need to apologize to me. He doesn’t hold grudges very long.” The boy doesn’t seem to care about getting an apology at all, and Kaki eyes him suspiciously. “What?” Shigeru doesn’t look pleased at the scrutiny, and hefts his bag up higher.

“What’s your angle?” He says suspiciously, and Shigeru sighs, rolling his eyes.

“I want to date Sato-chan. I’d have thought that was obvious. Thanks to the stunt you pulled, He’s just barely talking to me again, and that’s annoying. I’ve been trying to get Satoshi to go out with me for months, and then you show up.” Shigeru shakes his head, annoyed. “He’s very cute, but the lovable idiot is dense as a rock.” Kaki can’t help the snort that leaves his throat, because that sounds exactly like Satoshi. “All that aside - I’m sorry.” Kaki jerks back, surprised. “And don’t think I’m doing this because Sato-chan told me to. I’m not good at handling threats to what I consider mine. And you are most definitely a threat. I can’t say I’m not going to still be a pain in your ass, but I won’t be quite so mean in the future. Just don’t expect me to make it easy for you to woo Sato-chan.” The boy hefts his groceries higher up on his hip, and he smirks. “Who knows, maybe having a rival for his affection will be fun. Just don’t expect to win, loser.”

Kaki’s lips pull into a faint scowl, but there is something there, a hint of amusement on his face. “Now you’re the one dreaming too big,” Kaki says with a huff. “I’ll win Satoshi back before you can even dream of it.” Shigeru’s lips curl into a proper smile, and he chuckles.

“That’s the spirit.” Shigeru says the words in open amusement. “Later loser. I’ll let Sato-chan know you apologized in your own bastardly way,” He laughs. “That’ll put us on even footing, but don’t expect mercy from me after this - Sato-chan is mine.” The teenager saunters off, and Kaki gives a half-hearted scowl, before grinning himself.

At least things wouldn’t be boring.
