the sun was high in the sky and the city was busy with people and POkemon alike on the streets. Merlyn just finished a couple interviews to be a lab assistant for famed head scientists. He was not sure how well he did but one thing for sure he was a nervous wreck during the interviews. Stuttering and mispronouncing words were out of the question.[break][break]

He was then sitting on one of the outside tables of a cafe, with a cup of iced coffee and half eaten sandwich laid in front of him. He was exhausted and somehow he did not have that much of an appetite despite having not eaten anything that day. [break][break]As he sat on the table he watched the people that passed by. He would noticed a group of people or couples, co-workers, family members, friends, seeing people talking and laughing together made him feel small and lonely in the big bustling city. He was foreign to the country and he knew no one there. Feeling lonely was something bound to happen. He immediately cleared his head of those thoughts, and instead decided to worry about how his interviews went.

Winter’s in the air as Toshiaki goes about his day. His schedule has always been sporadic much like himself, going any direction within seconds. Today he had no set plans. And instead of walking he jogs throughout the busy streets. Never missing a beat. His Furret runs on ahead of him, prowling the streets with infectious energy enough to rival his trainer. The pokemon stops, propping itself up on its hindlegs to sniff at a half-eaten sandwich left on a bistro table. [break][break]
Toshiaki catches up and lifts the overly-curious pokemon into his arms. “Gotcha! Sorry about that. She really likes table food.” [break][break]
He was ready to move on with his day, but he stays near the stranger’s side- examining their features more closely while Furret wiggles in his arms. He blinks.[break][break]
“Merlyn?”

The man was oblivious to his surrounding when he daydreamed. So much so that when the Furret appeared what seemed to be out of nowhere he jumped in his seat. "Aah!" He wailed in shock.[break][break]

Not long after its trainer came to catch it before the Furret can approach any closer to the oh so desired half eaten sandwich. "Whew," He exhaled in relief, recognizing that it was just a Pokemon curious of his left over. He nodded at the trainer's apology with an awkward smile, feeling quite embarrassed of himself as well, being scared of such fuzzy creature.
[break][break]
Merlyn thought that would be the end of their interaction but surprisingly, his name came out of the trainer's mouth. His eyes widened and took another close look at the other man. He could recognize those bright lit eyes anywhere. [break][break]

"Toshi?" He questioned, more so to himself. When the realization dawned onto him, he smiled wide. "Toshi!" He leaped up from his seat, thrilled to see a familiar face. "What are you doing here?" He asked. Being a very intimate person he welcomed himself to give the other man a tight hug, long before he released Toahiaki from his captivity.

All at once nostalgia comes in crashing waves, same as the feeling of euphoria that casts over him. During his time back in Galar he struggled to make friends. A boy ignorant of the vast world around him, trapped in the vice grip of solitude. But he happened to meet just one person while on his journey of self-discovery there, and that person was none other than Merlyn himself. He was a few years older than him, sure, but that hardly impacted their friendship. Not even distance broke it.[break][break]
Happy as a Shellder, Toshiaki accepts the hug, doing his best not to put all his strength into it (he’s a spine-breaker when it comes to heartfelt embraces.) Furret climbs onto his back and peeks over his trainer’s shoulder, still very much wanting that half-eaten sandwich.[break][break]
“Me? I live here!” He says, grinning ear-to-ear as he takes a seat next to him, unprompted. “I have for nearly two years now? I’m taking the gym challenge and doing my athlete training here.” A finger scratches underneath Furret's chin, appeasing her ravenous appetite for now. “What about you!”

Merlyn found it hard to remove himself from Toshiaki. As they sat, his body leaned in towards the other, eagerly listening to the man's answer to his question. "You live here!?" He repeated with a slight tone of shock. What were the chances that they'd meet again in Hoenn. "I'd love to see you run again," He commented genuinely. His speed was a spectacle to behold. [break][break]

"Oh! I arrived here a couple days ago." Merlyn noticed the Furret was still interested in his leftover, he couldn't finish them anyway. So he pushed the plate of half-eaten sandwich towards the Furret, gesturing that it was welcomed to have it. "I just finished an interview for a job under a well known scientist in this region." He added before continuing, "Do you know those space rifts that's been forming all over Hoenn? I came here to study it!" He said excitedly, eyes shimmering whenever he's talking about a subject of interest.

“Yeah! I like living here. Hoenn’s pretty nice.” When it isn’t too overly chaotic, but Toshiaki likes a little chaos in his life. He’s weird like that. [break][break]
While they sit and chat, Furret happily accepts the abandoned leftovers. She unfurls around Toshiaki’s side and swipes the food clean off the plate, nibbling away at it while stationed on her trainer’s lap. Luckily the crumbs didn’t bother him.[break][break]
“Oh, the space time rifts? Yeah! I’ve been in a few of those before! I met one of my best Pokemon in there.” They had shared interest in space and the cosmos, but Toshiaki was always inclined to athletics over science. He’s not nerd material, anyhow. He grins at Merlyn.[break][break]
“If you wanna meet her sometime you totally can! She’s like an Arcanine, but different!”
