"aaaaaall right.
what's good."
Her smile widened ever so slightly.
"Now we're talkin', Stevie!"
She's not dropping the fucking nickname, nope!
"Thinking too much will make your brain melt. I found the best places I've ever seen just while walking around a random town I ended up droppin' in after skydiving, actually. In fact--"
--she pulls out her phone!
"Want me to roll? Right now. No backsies."
Ooh. Spotaneity and impulsivity. A roll of the dice as to where they'd be off too. He liked that thought.
"...Actually, that sounds like a fun idea! Why should we have to decide when we can have the world do it for us?"
"Ah yeaaah, they're still going strong."
Not that she knew. She left the scene a long time ago. They were fun, her Blaziken still holds all his medals and trophies with pride, but they're both way more inclined to do actual battles.
"I heard rumors 'bout them wanting to expand in other Regions, but, younnooooow… paperwork can he hard to deal with."
And she may have forgotten to give all of them a read. Again.
"What, you're into that stuff?"
"Some extra spice is always nice!" Hau nods, agreeing wholeheartedly.
"Hoenn? Dang, I wanna visit Hoenn so bad still." He hasn't been there before, but he definitely has it on the list of places to visit sometime.
"There's contests there, right? What are they like?" Seems like they're already forgetting about the Mantine tips...
"Ayuuup! I relax just fine everyday, I just wanted some extra spice, you know?"
Sometimes you have to dive in new seas, climb new volcanoes, get lost in new woods… and sleep in new beds!
"From Hoenn, actually. Surfed on a few Sharpedos back at home, but from what I heard Mantines are much easier to deal with, yea?" a calm chuckle "But if you have any tips, I'll be ready to take some notes."
Holy shit this woman had some power in her. He'd have to ask for some work-out tips later.
"Oh, heck yeah! So active activities and battling? Sounds right up my alley, actually."
At the mention of Mantine surfing he chuckles. "It's actually pretty fun! Can give you some tips if you want? But honestly, I doubt you'd need them." She looked like she'd rock the waves with ease. "Where are you from originally?"
--there we go.
"The same guy I defeated a handful of times already?"
Maybe a little bit of an exaggeration, but so far she was having way more luck in battle than him. Jorge was quick to jump on the side, hopping around the room and, most importantly, around both the Muk and its Trainer, almost trying to either distract them both or even make the Pokèmon hit Archie himself.
A trickster at heart, not unlike the little girl who just waltzed in an ecoterrorist group's base and started wrecking everything in her way.
"Psych up!", she chirps, the Sylveon stopping to charge up before restarting to hop around.
"Bwahaha!!"
More laughter echoes through the room as Archie plucks a Pokéball from the belt clip. He tosses it into the air, and out comes his Muk. An unpleasant aroma fills the air as the Pokémon cries out angrily.
"Wouldn't dare dissapoint now, would I? Who d'ya take me fer?"
A wave of his hand, and the Poison-type starts preparing a Sludge Wave to toss at the opposing Sylveon.
