The man was finally back after being off on yet another whimsical journey that led him to another region as a whole. He'd actually lost track of how long he was gone but certain things were urging him back to Hoenn and so, that's where he'd ended up yet again. There was a lot of official things he had to go through in terms of going from one region to another and apparently he had some sort of appointment to go to in terms of bringing himself back to Hoenn. It didn't make any sense, or rather, he didn't realize so much was under a careful and watchful eye.[break][break]


Initially, he got lost among the different areas of the HQ, having been gone so long he lost any familiarity he had with the place - not like he was ever there to begin with. He'd spent his time roaming around looking for interesting things and people. Hope had already lost count of how many people he asked where the high offices were. Good thing he'd arrived early. [break][break]

"This is really a pain to deal with, Phantasma. You're lucky you get to relax all day today," He muttered under his breath as he finally, hopefully, headed in the right direction. Hope felt as though he was walking for ages, even centuries, until he managed to find the right direction. His nose shifted from the sudden change in scent - floral, he noted - and just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, he heard her voice. [break][break]

"Surely she isn't psychic... right, Phantasma?" He was a bit shocked. He was going to knock on the door to signal that he was there, and yet she already called for him to enter. That was either some impeccable timing or she truly was psychic. Hope slowly opened the door and peeked in, being met with a rush of floral scents that somehow managed to not be so overpowering. He still wasn't used to it, though. [break][break]

"Hello," He greeted, slowly entering the room. Once inside, he took a second to look around before he closed the door behind him. He took note of the owner of such a nice room and walked a little closer. Hope stopped several feet away from her and began to look around the room closely, making sure to note every interesting detail he could find; almost as if he were fascinated by the very room itself. [break][break]

"Yeah, it was a nice little vacation, I suppose you could sa-" Suddenly his eyes caught sight of the lovely Misdreavus near the woman and he audibly gasped, cautiously inching closer, "Such a beautiful pokemon!" [break][break]

He was captivated by the pokemon, only because he'd always wanted one for himself. Ghost and fairy types fascinated Hope more than anything and he wanted a specific few from each type. "Phantasma, look! There's a Misdreavus here!" He whispered excitedly to himself, though he was actually talking to his Gengar who was chilling in her ball. [break][break]

"Sorry- Uh, yeah, vacation was nice, but it's nothing like Hoenn. There are some things Phantasma and I need to check out, so we came back," Now that sounded a bit suspicious, though he didn't mean for it to. He really meant they needed to check on their old little hideout and the few precious things they'd scattered among one of the cities.
