he made a PAINED noise —— some muddled cross between choking and the sound of a rapidly deflating balloon. bede wasn’t especially fond of having his picture taken under ORDINARY circumstances, much less when it could easily be used as blackmail. it presented the gym leader with the most terrible DILEMMA. obviously he couldn’t afford to move —— yet allowing marnie to get away with those photos was ( in no way exaggerated ) a fate worse than DEATH. he didn’t want to consider the possibilities.
thinking quickly, bede snatched up the first great ball he could reach without JOSTLING around too much. his sylveon appeared in a burst of light, already bouncing excitedly from paw to paw at the prospect of play. the fairy trainer FROWNED slightly. in all honesty, he would have much preferred gardevoir —— she was quick, calm and focused. ( and lacked hatterene’s rather infamous temper, to boot. ) rabbit was... a bit SCATTERBRAINED at times. a little too preoccupied with having fun. still, he supposed beggars couldn’t be choosers —— and he really didn’t have much time to SPARE.
❝ rabbit, dear. ❞ the fairy type perked up, her tail beginning to wag. bede struggled to keep his voice low. ❝ get that PHONE for me, would you? go fetch. ❞ as sylveon took off in a blur of pink and white, the gym leader couldn’t help but silently bemoan his own MISFORTUNE. ( for what must have been the dozenth time that evening. ) he could have picked a slightly more COMFORTABLE sitting position to get stuck in, at least.
