How did you two end up falling in love?
Maxie: Although your question is one that is of a general nature, I admit it still managed to bring feelings of passion to my heart.
Archie and I have quite a history, but I believe the moment we fell in love was when we co-created a team in Hoenn to protect the region against Team Rocket…although we were clear on our intentions, most of Hoenn shunned us, and we were mainly left to ourselves and our team mates. Naturally, when people are in close proximity to each other for long periods of time they either hate each other, or become quite close. Although it seemed like the former, for us, it was definitely the latter.Hm… I believe it was after we heard of Rocket’s breakdown that Archie initiated the first kiss. And I - well. That is the answer to your question, anon.
Archie: I don’t remember any of this to be honest since i was so lost in yer eyes *swoons*
The way I remember it is way before Team Aqua and Team Magma even existed, me and Maxie, we were on a team together, we weren’t even admins! Anyway, back on our former team, I always noticed this redheaded, skinny, shy kid, around my age (at the time) working by my post. Lo and behold, we became acquaintances with a few hellos and small talk we quickly became close friends.
Of course, our goals became unreachable in that team so we left in a big fight, sadly, our dreams polar opposite. I wanted to expand the sea and he wanted expand the land, clearly those ideals clashed. We haven’t spoke until we put our differences aside to protect Hoenn.
But I don’t think Maxie knew I loved him for all those years.
