"Maybe I shouldn't show him kindness. Maybe I should show him a fist in his face."
"Really. With my own tv???"
frames this and hangs it on the wall of my room ))
It's the day after he and Six went out for dinner. Marlon's just waking up at his hotel room, still a little dazed, when he finally decides to look at his phone and contact Roxie and Elesa for an update.
When he pulls up the notifs, he notices that he's quite literally been spam called by the League. And Roxie. And Elesa. And unknown numbers from the Unova and Rareita region. Huh? He decides to check out Roxie's messages first. He scrolls back up to where they left off (she messaged a lot for some reason) and it takes him a moment to register what he's seeing. It's a link to a news article, and when he does click on it... There's him and Six sitting in the carriage, all smiley and enjoying themselves. Wait. This is the news. Marlon's tired eyes scan the title. 'Champion Six and Marlon Kalawai’a seen together, are they a thing?'
He stares. Stares for a little longer.
It finally dawns on him. Six is this region's Champion. That meant she was talking about herself earlier yesterday. His eyes fall back on the title. A thing? What does that mean? He goes back to the tab with Roxie's messages. [ Rox ] MARLON ARE YOU KIDDING ME [ Rox ] MARLON PICK UP THE FUCKING PHONE [ Rox ] THIS IS SUCH A BAD LOOK FOR YOU MARLON KALAWAI'A
She's using his full name... He's in danger. Still, he texts back. [ Marlon > Rox ] what does 'a thing' mean? how bad is it? After that, he switches to Elesa's texts. [ Lesa ] Marlon, I love you so much you know that? And I'm happy for you, but you might want to head home now if you want to keep your position this time
Ah. Did he fuck up that bad? But this was out of his control... Hopefully they'd understand. [ Marlon > Lesa ] Happy for me? Please help me talk to them when I get back
The League calls go ignored for now as Marlon stares down at his phone screen, reading through the article. And reads it again.
Ah. Does this mean they think they're dating...? But. They aren't, right? So why are they reporting it? Or... Maybe they are? He will never understand this kind of news, though. With a sigh, he rubs the nape of his neck, waiting for more messages from the girls. This is bad bad. Will have to thank them after this.
sighs cause hau and satoshi are so gonna turn that shield ball thing into another competition / extreme sport. ))
Aaaand now his mom is at Shady House for some reason. This is just great.
