routes are for more than just duo wilds y'know? and route 124's more than just a bunch of water, it's got rocks and stuff too!

which is exactly why francie picked it as a place for her and angelo to meet up. she was able to give captain, her carracosta, a little love and attention on the surf over. he'd kept herself from riding her aerodactyl, tilly, because tilly'd been overworked recently with how much she was flying francie around the region.

she'd returned her carracosta, however, and didn't even have her lycanrocs out. she was nervous, of course. she hadn't seen angelo in literally forever and people change.

not really her. hell, she hadn't even gotten taller. still barely 5 foot tall- a centimeter below five foot, even, which is why all her trainer IDs and the like read five foot even-- they just gave her the centimeter but she knew y'know?

"everything's fine, it'll go well, you're fine, you're cool." francie mumbled the mantra to herself before standing up and bouncing a small circle. "i'mjustsoexcited! okay, ahem. seriously, be cool."

she stopped her bouncing and sighed, rolling her shoulders, deciding to calm herself a bit with some breathing exercises she learned on johto. where she'd had to channel her inner calm so many times.

Route 124. [break][break]

By now, Angelo is confident that he can navigate the stretch of ocean from Lilycove to Mossdeep and back again through any level of fog density. Easily. [break][break]

And yet his cherished seaplane is left tied securely back in the Lilycove docks. Forgone in favour of being exposed to the elements on a Salamence’s lofty back. [break][break]

It gives him time to consider a spontaneous reunion. [break][break]

Years had passed since he’d last seen francie myrtle face-to-face. Their correspondence had mostly been erratically paced emails, until the space between had extended a year or more. Angelo can’t remember who’s turn it had been to send a message last. [break][break]

It was probably his. [break][break]

But she’d forgive him, he’s sure. It had been a busy year. A lot had changed beyond that of broadened muscles and a liberated shine to his eyes. What with dropping out of university to get a pilot license, and picking up a marriage certificate on the way.[break][break]

Landing close to their meeting spot, Angelo recalls Mirage back into her capsule and takes the rest of the stretch of rock by foot. Waves splash against the cliffside, bright sunshine turning the mist into an array of sparkles and when he turns the corner, he’s met with the sight of Francie. [break][break]

Meditating? And totally unchanged. [break][break]

He clears his throat, grin partly hidden behind a fist.[break][break]

“’m not interrupting, am I?”

"wah!"

startled by the noise made, francie had turned the moment she heard that cleared throat and winced. the voice attached though?

"angie!" though, as she calls him that with her arms thrown in the air with childlike excitement, she realizes upon seeing him that calling him angie is almost a disgrace to women because he's like--

"whoa, biscuits angie, you're like, buff-- ah!"

catching herself, she laughs nervously and makes her way over to hug him, hides her face, wow wow, much embarrassment, it's fine.

"it's good to see you, i mean!"

As Francie twirls around, golden strands flying and expression innocently bright, it’s like being hurtled through time to Alto Mare. Back to the days of summer jobs, when the narrow streets had been filled with a chorus of Ledyba chirps and tourist chatter.

And when he and francie myrtle had sat on the canal edge outside his family home, trading tales and sharing dusk light.

“Hey, stranger.” His expression softens, caught in a kaleidoscope of the past and present. Then she opens her mouth and the reminiscent thought shatters into a bark of hearty laughter.

“Stop gawking like a washed up Magikarp and start hugging.” Angelo doesn’t wait, unperturbed by her nervous laughter as he closed the distance.

‘Buff’ arms encircle his old friend, the pilot having to hunch his shoulders so he can pull the woman into a tight hug. (He almost forgot how small she was.)

“Good to see you too, Fancy.”

the hug is welcomed with francie's bright smile and an excited wiggle within the hold. francie is all excitement and happiness, squeezing angelo likely as hard as angelo is squeezing her; though she puts forth the effort and he likely doesn't have to do that.

"it's good to see you too!" she either remains or pulls away, depends on what he does next. but she's a person who reflects the movements of others most of the time. "i'm sorry it took me forever and a day to get to come and visit. it's been a really rough few years for me... and before that, just busy, y'know?"

excuses aside, she grins. "but anyway, how're you angie?"

What commences is a miniature – and short lived – squeeze war.

Angelo’s squeeze is followed by Francie’s own before its passed back to him again, a little tighter each time. Each round sees laughter being softly squished from his lungs in between the back and forth.

He concedes first, even if he could crush her fiercer still but Angelo is all easy-going smiles when he steps back from her embrace.

He notes the 'rough few years' with a concerned twist within his chest but doesn't chase it, not right away. The good reunion mood isn't ready to turn serious yet.

“Y' could've made it forever and a day, then another day on top. That's when I'd maybe start to get worried.”

Her grin is met with one of his own, fond. “You're good, dork. Busy 'n me are well beyond acquaintances at this point.” To say the least, a lot had changed since he and Francie had parted in ways in Alto Mare. More still since their last email.

“But I'm good. Surviving.” Thriving.

A little nod is given towards the rocky path. Why stand around chatting, when they could do it while exploring?
