Every child of Fortree learns to navigate the overpass — the dense, winding, kilometers-long pathways of wooden rope-bridges that connect the city's treetop infrastructure — by schooling age, and some even as young as two or three are sent by busy mothers to run neighborhood errands. Some say the city's natives are natural navigators and orienteers. The twisting, criss-crossing nature of the paths, coupled with a lack of directional sunlight blocked by the canopy layer of the temperate rainforest, tends to spin tourists and travelers 'round til the local rangers are paged in to help.

So it's yet another lost aspiring trainer on their way to challenge the gym that Scout is expecting when he responds to this afternoon's distress call. The voice through his Pokétch is fuzzy and clearly panicking.

When he and Ever show up at the site of the call's coordinates, however, the woman who is there to greet them looks physically unharmed and more put-out than afraid. She's there with a pair of Skiddo laden with packaged agricultural goods; two boxes hang by their sides. She points at the clearing that normally opens the main path into Fortree's town center to outside Hoenn.

"I see." Scout says, when he does. A massive — easily two-and-a-half meters tall and likely over 150kg — Slaking blocks the path, completely and blissfully unaware at the massive traffic obstruction it has become.

If someone had told him when he was younger that he would be living in a treehouse, he would’ve thought them crazy.
[break][break]
He live in a treehouse. Yeah right.
[break][break]
However, things happen, and sometimes his life takes a direction one doesn’t expect. Like him moving away from his homeland of Galar and to Hoenn. That had totally been unexpected.
[break][break]
He had been none too happy about moving to Hoenn. A place where the sun shone a little too much for his taste. Not to mention how hot it could get. Though he could deal more with the heat than the sun,.
[break][break]
It would be months after moving to Hoenn that he would stumble into Fortree while exploring. Never would he have thought he would stumble across another civilization in the middle of a forest. Of course there was a similar town in Galar, so he supposed he shouldn’t have been surprised.
[break][break]
The forested area, with its limited amount of sunlight, reminded him strongly of Galar. So strongly, in fact, that he went out of his way to learn his way around the area, so when he was old enough to move out of his grandparents house, he could move to Fortree.
[break][break]
Now that he had been living in the area for close to two years, he knew the area like the back of his hand. It was why, despite not having spent his formative years in Fortree, he was often sent to help people find their way around Fortree when the occasional trainer lost their bearings.
[break][break]
Unused to any other missions in the area around Fortrees other than that, he was surprised to find not a lost trainer but a slaking problem when he arrived at the mission location.
[break][break]
Eying the loafing, he would turn to Scout, a more recent recruit to the ranger corps. “Have any ideas as to how we can get it to move?”
[break][break]
As someone who had been a ranger longer, he could easily take over the whole operation. However, he wanted to test Scout a bit and see how he worked through problems.[break]

"Dunno." Scout says, drily. "Have ya tried asking it nicely."

A beat. The woman snorts.

The corner of Scout's mouth fishhooks up into a wry grin. But he thinks Ever might have been looking for a real answer, so he wipes it off his face as quickly as it appears and attempts what he thinks might approximate a contemplative ponder.

"Waking it up would be a good start," he says.

One step at a time.

He just shot the other man an unimpressed look. Some might laugh even if a bit awkwardly at such a comment, but Ever wasn’t really the type. Of course, finding amusement in such a comment would mean actually having a sense of humor, which the young man tended to lack most of the time.
[break][break]
Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, he waited for the other ranger to get serious, his gaze only flickering briefly to the civilian woman when she had tried to refrain from laughing at the other man’s comment. Returning his attention to Scout when he spoke once more, he listened to what the other ranger had to say.
[break][break]
“Okay, any ideas of how we could do that without riling the slaves up? I’d rather not get caught up in a battle if we can help it,” he said, looking resisting the urge for a sharp retort. At this point, it would probably be obvious he was testing him a bit. Testing him to see how he might deal with a situation without resorting to conflict. As rangers, their main job was to protect Pokémon and wild life, and while it was true sometimes a battle would be inevitable, sometimes it was their job to come up with a more peaceful solution.[break]
