002 | Cherrygrove City | Action;
[After a productive (but admittedly somewhat boring) five hours of work sorting and filing papers at the Cherrygrove Pokémon Center, it's finally time for Yagyuu to head for home--or at least, for the room at the Cherrygrove Inn he's been sharing with Kirihara-kun since they both arrived in the city yesterday. He'd gladly work longer hours if they'd let him, but the rules are strict for minors, and so he's being cheerfully shooed out as soon as his time is up for the day.
As a result, anyone in the vicinity of the Center in Cherrygrove will probably see him exiting the front doors, his Breeder's Manual already open in one hand for casual perusal as he starts his walk back toward the inn. Strangely, he doesn't seem to have any Pokémon with him, though he does have his backpack slung casually over his shoulder like a model student might.
All things considered, he's not hard to spot, both from his lack of visible Pokémon and his bright yellow Rikkai jersey with the collar popped up at the neck. Which means he's also a prime target for bothering, should anyone feel so inclined.]

[It sounds like humor, but it's actually fairly serious. Given the unpredictability Fuji's already shown so far, Yagyuu's not about to start making assumptions about what he would and wouldn't do now.]
Did you throw it at a map of Osaka?
action.
[mild, but there's amusement, there.] But not really. On the other hand, if she were still small and orange, I think you'd agree with the naming choice.

But Phantom-- I'll assume that that isn't just a reference to his elegance.

[That earns Fuji a faint smile.]
I can't say I'd particularly mind that.

-- sorry, you just came from the Center, didn't you.

[But the remark about raising children caught his attention--and curiosity.]
I suppose that means I ought to choose the names of my other team members with care in the future.
action.
[a bit of fishing, here. he's been toying with that 'Phantom' reference since Yagyuu's first mentioned it in their conversation, and based on their previous discussions on literature (and his subsequent delight in figuring that Yagyuu's well-versed in the classics), he thinks this is, perhaps, plausible.
but then again, he could always be wrong.]
action.
That would depend, I think, on whether or not my next acquisition looks like a Christine.
action.
Well, I'd have trouble imagining a pokemon that resembles Christine Daaé, really. But there are several pokemon around that are known for their singing.
action.
Are there really? [He looks a little amused at the prospect.] I'll have to remember that for the future. In the present, though, I think it'd be slightly more prudent to acquire a practical Pokemon first and let the name come second, rather than picking out a name and then looking for one that might fit it.
action.
I'd say that would do the character justice.
