          The Luxray gives a gentle purr before continuing to head in the direction of the berries. Clearly the stranger’s comment tickled her ego a little.

          Nicole just smiles before giving a nod. “Glad ya hear yer capable. An’ nah. Ya just got tha attention o’ a buncha toddlers who wanna see ya an’ find out who ya are. No offense, jus’ curiosity.” As if to prove her point, she gestures to the Riolu, Sewaddle, Mareep, and Lilipup who all gathered around to stare at her. Much like actual children do.

　　Tem looks over the Luxray in awe, forgetting about berries for a moment.

　　“Ohh, she's beautiful,” The trainer coos, but the Pokémon is ready for duty, and already on the move. “Ahーum, okay! I'm not really worried about danger, my team is plenty strong. I just don't want to cause any offense!”

[gamenu]

         “I’m human. Ain’ nothin’ I can do wit a name aside from address ya by it.” Eating one of her own apple slices, she looks at the strange ‘dog’ again. Maybe he’s had run ins that left him cautious. Which is fair, now that she thinks about it.

          Although for her, caution isn't something that she wholly acknowledges. Then again, pleasant experiences have left her a little more trusting of things.

         "If i' makes ya feel safer, I'll go first. I'm Nicole. An' i's very nice ta meetcha."

And she isn't swatting and kicking at him, so he really has no reason to get up.

" Depends on who's askin', " an ear flicks. He lifts his head, flashing a toothy grin. " I know better than to give that out freely, da? Never know if someone's a fae... "

         “Rin would be easier. . .hm. We could start plannin’. Are we doin’ closet cosplays? ‘Er are we gonna look up tutorials fer sewin’ an’ costume design?”

　　“Umm... Their outfits are pretty similar... Maybe Rin, since my hair is the teeniest bit like hers? More than Len, anyway.”

Yall my big brother loves me sm…

Granted I knew this when he wanted to call just to hear my voice.

But over our convo while he was driving to our grandmas house, he asked me about games I was playing lately, anything new etc. and I told him nah. Cause there was one game I wanted but couldn’t get it (broke)

I didn’t see the email until I was going to bed that he bought it for me—

So I spent all of yesterday playing and now I wanted to share where I’ve been (aside from mentally dead behind a Denny’s—)

          Mori is greeted by the happiest pitbull as soon as he sits down. The dog trotted up to him and offered him one of his toys as a way of welcoming.

          Nicole’s dad however, called for her as he went in the kitchen to prepare tea. He left her notebook on a side table where she could clearly see it once she came down the hall. There’s soft, quick little thuds of her feet hitting the floor as she runs out of her room and down the hall.

          Quick in noticing her notebook, she picked it up and flips through it rapidly, scanning over each page she had written in and ensuring everything was there. A soft sigh of relief that quickly catches in her throat when she notices Mori sitting on their couch.

          Just staring, unable to speak or even process what he was doing there, how he found her address, or what he wanted. It hadn’t even occurred to her he was simply trying to be kind. Very hesitantly, almost as if she was afraid to take her eyes off of him, she sat in the chair across from the couch itself. Bringing her legs under her so she was sitting curled in the chair, Nicole watches for a moment before looking elsewhere.

          Anything she had to say to her dad suddenly lost in a heavy dose of anxieties and worries. She didn’t want to be rude to him, Mori hadn’t been unkind. But she also didn’t know him yet.

          Finally, she manages to speak. But it’s not a greeting, a welcoming, instead, it’s a very tentative, unsure question. “. . .how did ya find out where I live?”

The taller has no objection. Accepting the invitation, he ducks under the doorway and removes his shoes (as per tradition for commoners, he has heard). Upon receiving the offer for food or drink, Mori gives the older man a respectful nod, " tea, please. "

He takes a seat wherever reasonable, and patiently waits.

[gamenu]

          Mori wraps an arm around her, pulling Nicole into his chest. He flashes her a warm, flirty smile if she dares look up at him.

                                                  -- @morii-senpai

          Unable to help but freeze as she’s pulled to his chest, she’s tense for quite a bit. Nicole loved hugs that’s what this was, right?, but was not used to them from school friends. Still, Mori was safe. He proved that time and time again.

          A short moment of trying to process everything at once, especially how warm her face felt now, she wrapped her arms around his larger frame in a gentle hug of her own.

          Nicole didn’t dare looking up at him, a fear he could see just how bashful she had become.

[gamenu]

          The taller blocks her path with his arm, suddenly interrupting their stride. His hand firm on the wall behind her. Mori lowers his head, closing the space between them until their eyes are leveled. " Don't talk about yourself like that," he says, tone even and quiet. " You're just as deserving as anyone else here. Don't forget it."

                                                  -- @morii-senpai

          She stumbles for a moment when he stops her, turning to look at him as he gets closer. Nicole feels herself shrink back, mildly confused by his switch in mood. In her mind, it wasn’t even that bad. Those weren’t even the worst things she’s heard about herself. And to her, if they were true, why did it matter anyway?

          Did Mori actually find something wrong with what she had said?

          Pure bewilderment is an understatement. Frankly, she doesn’t believe him. Part of her wants to, she genuinely and truly wants to believe him. He’s been such a good friend to her, and encouraging too. But. . .if so many people say the same thing, they can’t all be wrong, right?

         “Pfftt. . .c’mon now, Mori. Ya know I got a champion memory.”

[gamenu]

         ❛ You seem lost. ❜Lust mused, adjusting the wrist of her claws as before turning her attention to the other. [ someone of a bright light had appeared, lust was invested to find why there was a looming shadow encasing them. ] The homunculus smiles softly once their eyes meet. ❛ It is a large city, so it would make sense that you would be. ❜

                                                  -- @hariolor

         “Oh. . .hehe I guess I am.” She scratched at the side of her head sheepishly. Was it that obvious she was an outsider? Well. . .it was kind of hard to not notice the wide eyed doe look she had going on. Staring at everything new, and checking every street sign she walked by.

          Having made her way over to the stranger, she smiled at her.

         “Name’s Nicole. I’s a pleasure ta meet’cha, ma’am.” Be polite, always. Obviously this stranger was a local, and if nothing else would at least be able to more accurately tell her where she was.

[gamenu]

          Her brows furrow in confusion the more she listens to him. He was going to go somewhere she couldn’t see him. . .and if she did, it wouldn’t be like he is now. That didn’t feel good, that rock sized lump in her throat, and the deep pit that sat churning in her stomach. The idea that he’d just leave like that.

          Of course she would still have Robin, right? She loved her, but all the same. . .Nicole was used to having both of them. Couldn’t she continue to be selfish and keep both?

          His question was answered with a gentle shake of her head. Neither he nor Robin spoke about what happened.

          Nicole didn’t pry, and as long as they were content, she was too. But was Sunday that unhappy that he felt the need to create a new place? Very carefully and slowly, she wraps her arms around his midsection in a little hug. It was something she hoped comfort him, and something to keep him there just a little longer.

         “. . .why cain’t I help?” She could create, as unstable as she was. . .her creations were solid. Nicole could help Sunday, the little godling was capable, something deep within her knew it was. “I could help ya make this place ya wanna do. I know I can. . .”

                     the thought that this might be one of the last times they could sit together like this settled heavily in Sunday's chest,  far more than he had prepared himself for.  he didn't want to think about it but he knew what was coming.  knew the cost of what lay ahead.  and still,  he believed it  would be worth it in the end,  even if that belief came laced with sorrow.   ❝   something like that,   ❞   he finally murmured.  his thoughts wandering towards the future,  his future.  the days ahead felt numbered.   ❝   after the charmony festival i may no longer be around like i am now.   ❞   

                     ❝   have i ever told you what happened to the place robin and i came from ?   ❞   it wasn't something he shared often.  wasn't a story he liked revisiting.  but now,  with so little time left,  he found himself wanting to say it aloud.  to be understood.   ❝   a stellaron descended upon our planet.  and it took everything with it.   ❞   the devastation.  the helplessness.   ❝   though robin and i found refuge here  ...   i wasn't able to forget that feeling.  i want to create a place where people never have to experience a feeling like that again.  but i know i cannot do it like i am now.   ❞

         “Goin’ in tagether sure. . .bu’ youse plan on leavin’ too?” It’s a look of confusion thrown his way amidst all the excitement. She thought Ryuji was just going to help her get in, then she leaves and he goes to class.

          Did he plan on skipping?

          While Nicole wasn’t a whole stickler for school, she was getting all her stuff done all the same even if at home. She didn’t want Ryuji to fail or get in trouble trying to entertain her all the same. A slight damper on their excitement, but she’s concerned.

         “If yer plannin’ on leavin’ wit me. . .shouldn’t be too hard. . .but if we’re tryna sneak ya inta class too, that’s gonna up that difficulty by a large margin. . .”

          But it wasn’t impossible. It would require pattern watching, timing, and everything else a good spy or thief needs to sneak in. They would only have to talk to one person, and that was who Nicole needed to get her work from. In an out, should be. . .simple enough, right?

He knew that his words sounded simple and childlike - it would be just as easy for her to rebut that people found comfort in routine and that just because things were different or interesting, didn't necessarily mean that was in the good sense.

He knew that in the back of his mind and yet he'd said it, nevertheless.

That just seemed to go hand in hand with having no filter - maybe another high schooler his age would have been too self conscious or too mature to ever make such a joke but in his own awkward guy - he was simultaneously being himself and yet also, doing his best.

Hearing that Nicole's immediate response wasn't the groan or eye roll that he'd expected, his eyes had already brightened up - face stretching into a full blown grin as she seemed to play along. "Heh, for sure it'd be fun to pretend...! You never know when some stealth skills might come in handy in the future, too...!" He nods his head vigorously at this, exaggeratedly pretending to look over his shoulders. "Plus, like you said - helps the time go by faster too...!"

"Now that's what I like to hear!" He rubbed his hands together now, clearly embracing this idea. "We'll see how quickly we can get in and go out without being spotted or noticed by anyone...! Like a secret mission!"
