If your character went on a Trainer journey, how did your character feel spending time away from home to train?

pokémon character development.

he’d been trying to get out of town since he was five, always running off into the forest near masara town, wandering to the river, hiking up the hills to the bounds of town.     he waited for the april after his tenth birthday more eagerly than he’d waited for anything, & when he got handed pikachu, it didn’t matter how unwieldy it was or how embarrassingly satoshi arrived to the professor’s doorstep, he couldn’t get out of town fast enough.     he was excited.     a chance to prove himself as more than what the other kids of masara thought of him, a chance to show what he’s got.     & then that same day the onisuzume incident happened, & he felt both terrified & brave, & he couldn’t call home soon enough.

as the years have gone, the stretches between not being able to leave soon enough & not being able to go home soon enough have become longer & longer, until eventually he rarely thinks about going home anymore.     he loves masara town, it’ll always be his home, that’s where his mama is & he loves her like few other things.     but his journey has become him, it’s part of him now, he can’t stay home for weeks like he used to.     he has to train, he has to move, he has to see the world.     satoshi does feel a certain amount of guilt at all times for how long it’s been since he’s been home, since he’s spoken to his mama, since he’s so much as called her, since he’s so much as thought about home.     but he keeps busy.     the world is his home as much as masara town, & he tries to convince himself that’s a good enough excuse for being gone from home so long that coming home has become visiting his hometown.

"Irida? The next time you want me to visit the Pearl Clan settlement, please warn me about the snow..."

            { ⚪ } ❝ come now, it's not that bad, is it? i'm wearing less than you are and i'm still fine! ❞

indeed, irida showed absolutely no signs of shivering in the snow, despite being much less bundled up than akari was. she stood completely still, completely comfortable.

❝ besides, that survey corps uniform of yours seems like it offers plenty of warmth in the snow! i'm sweltering just looking at you, in fact! ❞
