"Drat and bother!"
The man's cry rang out within the Rustboro City café, drawing the attention of several patrons and baristas. In his late 30's, with haphazardly combed graying hair yet a neatly trimmed beard, the stranger with the accent turned to meet the stares with an incredulous look. "What the devil are you looking at?" Though this was followed by immediate regretfulness as people turned away. "I'm sorry. No, I'm sorry. I'm ruined! Ruined!" He despaired, sinking his face into his hands.
Remiel, who had walked in wearing a grey knitted sweater, white button-up shirt, loafers, and black khaki pants, stood feet away from the man. His own blue-grey eyes had briefly shifted in the stranger's direction. The accent denoted him as Galarian. He should know, considering he had a similar accent himself. Rather than step forward towards the register and make his order, this prompted Remiel act on his curiosity. His arms folded across his chest, he asked, "How so?"
But, at least for a moment, the stranger carried on at his table as if he hadn't heard. "It's a disaster... disaster! 'Work in my accounting department', he said! 'It's the logical course', he said! 'Sod you, daddy', I said, 'I'll come to Hoenn to sell tea!' Now look at me! The old git will have a field day! I'll never—" Interrupted by a realization, the stranger took his face out of his hands and looked up at the young man who had approached him with a question. "Hold on just a minute... are you a countryman of mine? Well, I'll be!" He awed.
Apparently, the realization was enough for him to get up off of his chair and set a hand on Remiel's shoulder. It was easy for any passerby to assume Remiel was being harassed by the man who, with his old brown suit and tie, appeared very much like a pushy salesman. "You see, I'm buggered. My teas, they've been stolen! And now I'm buggered!"
Though his near perpetual calm expression withstood, Remiel shifted his eyes towards the hand on his shoulder. Then back towards the man. The Galarian Meowth that stood by him, on the other hand, quietly growled up at the stranger, who was ever oblivious to both the cat and the silent gesture.
— open — let's go find some tea
