[attr="class","textbox"] "Sorry!"

[break][break] The door to one of the rooms in Dewford's Ranger HQ burst open, revealing the familiar flash of brunette hair and green eyes that belonged to the League's Head Ranger. In his hand, he held a plastic bag that appeared to contain boxes of takeout.

[break][break] "I wanted to get something from that nearby Kalosian place," he said, plopping down beside Beau Fontaine with a sheepish grin. "But the wait time was too long, and I gotta get back to mainland soon."

[break][break] "Hope you don't mind Kantonian food!"

[break][break] He dropped the plastic bag on the table between them, the warm aroma of delicious food easily began wafting through the air.

[break][break] "Hey - do you know how to use chopsticks? I forgot to ask."

Beau almost started as the Head Ranger burst back onto the scene, accompanied by the tantalizing aroma of food. The Kantonian spot was not one Beau frequented, but the slight rumble his stomach gave at the mere scent had him deciding that yes, he would indeed lay into whatever had been brought back.
[break][break]
Lunch with ollie morales was a rare thing - only slightly more rare than Beau sitting in Dewford's Ranger HQ. Normally he was in and out - finishing a mission, starting the next, maybe occasionally filling out a more detailed report than he usually was made to. His thoughts drifted momentarily to the night he and jack wainwright had rerouted the stranded SS Tidal; that had been so many loopholes and reams of red tape that he hoped he'd never run into something that logistically nightmarish again.
[break][break]
He grinned at the other man as he sat down. "No, I get it, everybody wants a piece of you, right? At least out here you can say you have sketchy service or somethin'," he laughed. He waved off the comment about his preference of food - by and large, if it wasn't still moving, he'd eat it - but the follow-up question had him pause.
[break][break]
A combination of big hands and impatience had left him with only the most rudimentary understanding of chopsticks; he knew he wasn't holding them right when he did use them, and even then there was a three-in-four chance the food would drop right out of the unwieldy utensils, as if taunting him.
[break][break]
He scoffed, though, raising an eyebrow and offering a cocksure grin. "Uh, obviously! Who doesn't know how to use chopsticks? Psh."
[break][break]
He was only sweating a little bit.

[break][break] Ollie grinned.

[break][break] "You caught me."

[break][break] But it was nice to be out here, getting a reprieve from the constant string of phone calls and messages and other reminders that he was no longer a free bird as he used to want to be.

[break][break] Staring at the way that Beau Fontaine fumbled around chopsticks, Ollie chuckled.

[break][break] "Well - me. I mean, technically, I know how - " Because PENELOPE LIVY taught him, because for some reason when they'd been dating, she'd always liked some hole-in-the-wall place with a miserable old man who always yelled at him when he asked for extra sauce. "But I like a fork and a knife."

[break][break] He pulled the bag open - ta da! - and revealed the plastic utensils, offering one to the other man.

[break][break] "So. Bro, what's been going on here in Dewford?"

[break][break] "Give me all the deets."

Ah jeez, ah shoot. This was nothing near a fancy dinner, and he'd gotten to know enough about Ollie that he didn't feel intimidated lunching with the Head Ranger like he would have, once - did, once - but he still didn't like looking like a klutz in front of his companion. They were supposed to be having a calm and adult conversation about the increasingly serious things going on in the region, and Beau couldn't help but find his attention divided as he wondered who in the wide world ever thought eating food with two little sticks was efficient, productive, or fun.
[break][break]
Lost in thought, considering the usage of chopsticks that he was sixty percent he could probably hold correctly if he had to, he could only look up and give Ollie a commiserating nod at the notion he'd been caught out. Beau couldn't say he'd be too happy to get jerked around all the time either, not like he was on a chain for the government. Maybe that was being dramatic, because it definitely never seemed to affect Ollie's mood, but...well, it definitely looked like a lot more political moving parts than what Beau was used to dealing with.
[break][break]
The chopsticks were grim, and his brief assessment of Ollie's situation grimmer, but the appearance of plastic utensils parted the concern on his face like a rainbow after the storm. Gratefully taking a set from the other man, he neatly split the plastic package open and beamed in victory.
[break][break]
"Brah, you have no idea," he enthused. His usual animated demeanor was no stranger here - not because he was excited about the subject matter, at all, but because he had someone to talk to about it. "Just the usual, right? Investigating disturbances, goin' t'beat up some poachers an' calm down some nests where we have to, the normal stuff. It's all goin' absolutely great, no complaints."
[break][break]
He paused, a muscle in his jaw twitching. "Then Navy tells everybody to batten down the hatches in case there's trouble, which - man, there's always trouble, but it's never that bad, right? Except then a ton of Rockets show up with a freakin' pirate ship and start wreckin' the place. Me an' Eduardo Hisakawa did what we could - I think he went for the ship itself - but some asshole with a LARP outfit and a hammer almost got me while I was tryin' to make sure everyone else was safe."
[break][break]
He took a gulp of water and grimaced. "Fuckin' Rocket, y'know?"

[attr="class","textbox"] It wasn't the first time he thought it, but he still appreciated the easygoing brevity that hanging out with Beau Fontaine always provided. It reminded him more of the stress-free days of his youth, trainee uniformed smucked in mud, laughing at Laurence Anderson bedhead as their Ranger mentors called them out at early dawn.

[break][break] How nice it was — to not have to worry about anything. To not have to be dragged left and right for meeting after boring meeting.

[break][break] Ollie didn't know how people like Gunner Graves and paxton concordas did it all the time.

[break][break] However, whatever breezy conversation they were about to have was significantly dampened by the topic at hand, but Ollie was at least grateful that Beau Fontaine was the one to deliver the news. He'd seen plenty of it in the reports that made it to his desk already, but there was something else about hearing it outloud from the Ponyta's mouth, so to speak.

[break][break] "A LARP outfit?" Ollie echoed, making a mental note to look through the piles of reports on his desk to see if anything rang a bell. "Think you could draw it? Or - I could see if Pax could pull up a sketch artist."

[break][break] Ollie frowned.

[break][break] Fucking Rocket was right.

[break][break] But his stomach hurt to think about it. Because he knew that not all Rockets were bad, that they were just people, like Isaac Merlo had said.

[break][break] But...

[break][break] "But you and Eddie are safe, right? I mean. You're alive."

[break][break] He pieced apart his meal as a distraction, stabbing a fork into what appeared to be some oily noodles.

[break][break] "I wish I coulda been there, I - " He shook his head. Eduardo Hisakawa would've smacked him up the head for that one. Ollie couldn't be everywhere after all. He cleared his throat. "What do ya reckon they were lookin' for?"

"I could draw it, yeah," Beau nodded agreeably, using his newly-acquired fork to spear a clump of noodles that wafted a spicy aroma into the air. "What good would it do, though?" He all but inhaled the noodles, and though talking and eating were probably two things that shouldn't occupy the same space at the exact same time, he was going to try - "'S not lmmk hmm's wmmlkn' armmmd lmmk thmmt mmm th tmm, rmmt?"
[break][break]
Swallowing, he shrugged, glancing over to the other man with a wry grin. "But yeah. We're alive, but busy - too busy with separate things, but they don't tell you how mature you gotta get when the going gets rough, y'know?" At Ollie's inquiry, he shrugs, chasing another clump of noodles around his plate idly. "We did alright, as far as alright goes, but I got no idea what they were after. Heard they were interested in the Cave, but isn't that everybody? Dunno what's suddenly so special about it you break out the pirate ships and doggone vikings, yeah?" he commiserated, thinking of Grigori Sokolov and his dry-as-death demeanor. Nothing had changed to warrant that.
[break][break]
Had it?
