a smile lingered at cyrus’s stroke of confidence before it predictably fell flat. this tendency was as frustrating as it was strangely endearing.[break][break]

desmond sighed. “match up?”[break][break]

they were there because they were needed. welcomed to stay because they’d done well, and because without kanto’s branch, team rocket would have been off the regional map. their sole total victory in petalburg was proof enough.[break][break]

it took sharp teeth, but also talent and expertise to win a war, and that was why they weren’t still going through the motions in kanto.[break][break]

“you just said you were good at what you do.” he approached the desk where cyrus leaned at its edge. “so own it. tell me you’re the best vet in hoenn.”[break][break]

Just as his body teetered off the edge of the table, so did Cyrus' confidence. It wobbled, it struggled, it fought. It was the most inconsistent piece of him, exacerbated by ticking of his mind. He was constantly thinking of the possibilities around him; what could be, if given the chance, and what would forever remain a fantasy. It was what made him good at his job - regardless the problem, he'd always come to a solution, his mind never failing to stumble or leap into a burst of "ah-ha!".
[Break][break]
It was also what led to his downward spirals.
[Break][break]
"I am good," he countered, eyes shifting away. They clung onto the doorframe and its odd imperfect state of crookedness.
[Break][break]
But so are they.

[Break][break]
He shook his head, so lost to his own ramblings that even Desmond's sudden proximity was forgotten.
[Break][break]
"Forget it, I was just thinking out loud. "

look at me.[break][break]

as much as he wanted to build him up, desmond also wanted to tell cyrus what to do. he imagined it would be so much fun, that he barely refrained from pushing further in that moment.[break][break]

”i could make you say it,” he teased, almost softly. ”but i won’t, because i think you would probably melt into a puddle.”[break][break]

he relented with a sigh, though not without leaning into the path of his friend's fleeing gaze to reassure him, “don’t worry. you’re going to do great.”[break][break]

because cyrus was smart, careful, and more than a few things desmond wasn't, and for that, he believed in him wholeheartedly. his fingers went up to grip his shoulders and he shook him a little, before giving him a pat on the arm and pacing away again.[break][break]

”are you a macchiato or a cappuccino? my bet's on espresso.”[break][break][break]

There was no one more aware of his own abilities than Cyrus.
[break][break]
And, in that same vain, there was no one more aware of his deficiencies than Cyrus.
[break][break]
Their conversation was like clockwork. From the beginning to the end, he expected an awkward break from the casualty tossed between them. His therapist told him it was a sign of his lacking confidence. No matter how bright the sun shone, or how beautifully blue the sky was, caution would always find a way. 'What if it rains,' it would wonder, 'might as well go inside.'
[break][break]
For that reason, when he looked at desmond, now placed in front of him, he partially wish he'd go through with it.
[break][break]
To make him do what his past forbade him against.
[break][break]
Instead, he settled for the reprieve that came in its stead. Sighing, he answered, "Depends on the weather and place. For Slateport, I'm undecided."

he’d expected cyrus to prove himself yet again a creature of habit. one of those people who knew what they would order before looking at the menu, bound by their own rituals.[break][break]

even so simple, it made him smile to find another thing in common at the center of their dichotomy.[break][break]

“variety is the spice of life.”[break][break]

he paced closer to the door. perhaps it was evident that he’d leave soon. there was always business to attend to, somewhere.[break][break]

“don’t forget to pack something nice for when i convince you to go out on the town with me.”[break][break]

his fingers slid into his back pocket for a folded up brochure.[break][break][break]

"It can be."
[break][break]
When it came to coffee, he'd agree. It was the few areas Cyrus felt comfortable with exploration. Still, he could see that Desmond appreciated the simplicity of agreement in this one small section of the world, and so he doesn't sit to fight against it. Not beyond a small clarification; necessary in case their conversation led to the horrid assumption that, in other ways, he also enjoyed the spice of variety.
[break][break]
The mention of "out on the town" only solidified his worries on assumptions.
[break][break]
"I'm going there for work, remember? I won't have time for all of...that."
[break][break]
It didn't matter what he said. one way or another, Desmond would take what he wanted from the conversation and scamper out from the doorway, off to gods-know-where planning gods-know-what.
[break][break]
It was terrifying to gnaw on, but a little exciting, too.
