Two years. And to think I was told my stay here had a good chance of being 'temporary'.

Still, I suppose ferrying a small batch of unadopted Pokemon eggs over to Souji-kun's Breeding Center and then spending the rest of the day in the comfort of what's come to be my "own home" is still preferable to spending it mass-evolving a brood of six rambunctious Eevees, and decidedly superior to the circumstances new trainers customarily find themselves in when they first arrive.

It's a small concession, I suppose, to the much more desirable option of returning home properly — but then, I suppose Johto does have its certain advantages as well.

Shall we have a match today, Niou-kun?


[OOC: There are still free eggs left if anyone is interested in claiming one!]

I've heard that with the proper sort of relaxation techniques, one might come out feeling like a completely different person.

Against the Pokemon, you mean?

imagine that
i happen to be an expert at that kind of technique, lucky you.
normally i'd say we should go find some suckers to play against
but i guess here it's gotta be battling critters, so sure
let's go with that.

Oh, I don't know about that.

I'm sure there are some people of that nature to be found, if we only put our minds to finding them.

that sounds positively dastardly.

I'm sure I haven't the slightest idea what you could mean by that, Niou-kun.

[trickyoutwice]

course not, you're as pure as the driven snow
i'd have to be a terrible person to think you'd ever do something wrong

[usedlaserbeam]

And surely you're in no way a terrible person. After all, if you were, how would I ever tolerate you?

[trickyoutwice]

not terrible at all
i'm just the prettiest princess at the ball
gotta hold myself to my doubles partner's standards after all

[usedlaserbeam]

The princess, are you?

Doesn't that put you a bit out of my league, as a gentleman?

[trickyoutwice]

you know me, always willing to slum it with the lower classes
don't let my dad find out though
he might not let me go to the ball

[usedlaserbeam]

You know I do own a rather majestic white horse at the moment, don't you?

[trickyoutwice]

but yagyuu
i've got nothing to wear
