He was arguing for the sake of arguing. To see what the other might do. Granted he was sore and tired and in pain. Irritated by the fact that Kosei felt the need to yank him around like a weightless pool noodle. But it was a part of the provocation. The game.[break][break]

“Do you even listen to yourself?” he hissed back. “You’re so pedantic, you have no flexibility whatsoever.” There was no way that Enzo would admit to any fault. And as far as he was concerned, there wasn’t anything wrong. He’d never been raised under a strict hand or an obsessive demand for order and routine. It definitely showed.[break][break]

But liberating Kosei from any of that didn’t seem possible. It must’ve been a futile effort. Or maybe it was worth it to provoke the spark of fury that seemed to light dark eyes. Even under the snap of his own temper, the violet of his own eyes flared with satisfaction. The edge of a manic smile pulling the corners of his mouth.[break][break]

Yes, he liked this. He liked letting his temper loose, and Enzo enjoyed spurring it.[break][break]

Still, though, his own lip curled in a snarl. “Well maybe I’m sick of you,” he bit back, nose wrinkling in put upon distaste. “You’re a bore. Maybe I’m a slob, but at least I don’t need to fulfill each and every order to a spotless t.” Regardless of what Kosei might’ve thought, though, Enzo wouldn’t have ditched him either, had the rolls been reversed or the other had been impaired too greatly. He was selfish, sure, but not entirely cold toward his partner.[break][break]

But there was little use in trying to reason with Kosei when his temper finally pitched. Not that Enzo was really wanting to placate him anyway. He might’ve had some regrets, though, right about when the heel of Kosei’s hand pressed roughly against his dislocated shoulder.[break][break]

“What? Nonononono—“ His refusal didn’t matter, interrupted by the sharp POP that filled his ears, before a wordless howl from Enzo followed. His stomach heaved, instant nausea rolling over him as his vision tunneled and blackened at the edges.[break][break]

Despite being effectively pinned against the wall by Kosei’s forearm, his knees buckled. That was likely the only thing that kept him upright as the stream of pained sound rapidly devolved into a flurry of curses. His opposite hand reached up to push back at Kosei regardless. “The hell’s wrong with you?” It was a halfhearted growl, though, as adrenaline kicked in again. Eyes narrowed in challenge, but also…not.

[attr="class","text"]Enzo hummed quietly, “If you’d asked a younger me, I would’ve probably said that that was by far enough generosity. But now, I would suggest that if you think there’s potential to salvage something there by seeing him more often, it may not be so bad to at least test the waters.”[break][break]
Less chance of those what ifs that way.[break][break]
As Yumi turned to subdue the mienfoo blocking them, Enzo looked toward the edge of the trail where a ponyta lingered cautiously. It was smart to be so wary. With a click of his tongue, Asta surged forward one last time, uprooting the earth under its hooves with ROCK SLIDE.[break][break]
After he threw a pokeball for the lycanroc to retrieve once it had clicked shut, he turned back toward his companion. He rolled his shoulders, mulling over the soreness that had crept into his limbs, but more particularly his feet from walking so far.[break][break]
“I think that’s an excellent idea.” He smiled faintly, “A soak sounds divine right about now.”

[attr="class","star2"]Maybe it made perfect sense that Kosei was a bit skeptical of him now. Given the fact that Enzo had always been so push and pull with him in the past. When they were younger, he’d kept himself just out of reach. Spoke vaguely and never really provided Kosei with some sort of stable foundation, no matter how loyal Enzo had unspokenly felt toward him as a work partner. A friend. It should have come as little surprise that he’d be treated with a degree of wariness now. [break][break]
Except Enzo liked to think that maybe his growth had been evident enough.[break][break]
“My god. Who knew you’d be so into powerpoints,” he replied, casting him a short look. “Making a note to the ongoing list of things that get you in the mood.” He shook his head, a scoff of laughter lifting into the air between them. “Gimme fifteen minutes when we get back, I’ll definitely wow you.”[break][break]
Yet in the next breath, Enzo was grousing and moody. He didn’t feel taken seriously—not that he was really behaving in a way to be taken seriously. But his vulnerability was real. The fact that he’d left Kosei’s name on all of the paperwork and was willing to make this a partnership rather than place the other in a position beneath proprietor was also, embarrassingly, very real.[break][break]
“Shut up,” he grumbled back, still every bit as sullen as he’d been before. Even then, though, he allowed himself to be pulled in. Arms looped around his despite his own remaining firmly crossed against his own chest. Lips pressed in a thin like, his eyes narrowed as he tried to not respond to the kiss pressed his mouth. “Of course I make things difficult, can’t have you stealing my thunder.” Naturally, he relented in the end—pressing back into the affection with another lingering huff.[break][break]
“Does that mean you’ll reenlist, then?” He asked, lifting a brow curiously. Win in the bag for Enzo?

A nearby rustling in the brush signaled the presence of another pokemon, but Enzo ignored it. A short whistle drew Astra back to his side. His hand ruffled the dense fur between her ears at the top of her head.[break][break]
Quietly, he waited for whatever answer Yumi would provide. It seemed he’d touched on something that she understood. Which made sense, given that she’d never been too shy in talking about her grievances with her own family.[break][break]
He nodded slowly, mulling over her words. “I see.”[break][break]
The same couldn’t be said of his own family, left behind in Alto Mare. There had been too much time and distance and, very likely, bad blood. It hadn’t been the same, of course. He’d left of his own volition, without being booted out the door. Really, it was more probable that he would’ve wanted him to stay.[break][break]
But he’d been selfish and ambitious.[break][break]
There were some similarities he found in Yumi, held up next to himself. But that didn’t necessarily have to be the same.[break][break]
Regret for reconnecting and making amends with Kosei had been good for him. Almost alarmingly so. “You’re right. It doesn’t have to be. I think that is up to you. What you think will benefit you more, ultimately. Have you seen him much since he turned up?”

[attr="class","sam-banner-up-blurb"]The Vanillish that drifted by went ignored. Cassius maybe huffed flames of EMBER to send it moving along quicker, but Enzo paid it little mind—allowing the houndoom to have his moment of entertainment at the ice cream pokemon’s expense. “Have you noticed any difference, in all that time? Even minimally?” Probably not, if they were out here again.

“I wouldn’t say it if I didn’t think it.” Pointed out flatly. And that much was the truth. Enzo wasn’t really in the business of entertaining foolish notions or sugarcoating things that were unnecessary. But Mint genuinely did seem to have a handle on what he was doing to some degree.

Was coming into his own, even.

“So you’re hoping to find Hoopa first,” he remarks, more to himself, than to Mint outright. “Do you think the exact location will make a difference?” Perhaps he was thinking much too hard about it, but then again, Enzo wouldn’t know. He wasn’t the science expert.

Enzo doesn’t miss the swerve away from the topic. But it doesn’t particularly bother him, so he goes with it. “Sure,” he answers casually. “It is about noon or so.” Maybe? He hadn’t checked the time recently. But judging from the height of the sun that did little to melt the snow around them, it seemed to be around there.

“Eight.” He repeated, idly pulling out his phone and making a note in it. “Certainly. I’ve not personally utilized rotom, but I do hear they’re often useful for those in my employ who have them.”[break][break]
He mulled over the suggestion, nodding slowly to himself. “Yes, I think that would be good. Smart call.”[break][break]
With his espresso finished, there was nothing left to do, but settle back and observe the other wrapping up with the remnants of his dessert. “For the glory of Rocket, as ever.” He’d been nothing, if not, loyal during both of his stints within the organization. Even if he was generally self-serving. Enzo rolled his eyes, but he did not deny the younger man the treat. “Stop by the kitchen on your way out. They’ll package a tiramisu to-go for you to have for later.” Because obviously they would succeed.[break][break]
He lifted one shoulder halfheartedly. “It’s no issue. I prefer to speak natively when I have the chance to. Nothing more, nothing less.” He stood up afterward, smoothing out the front of his suit jacket neatly. “Likewise. I’ll wait for your signal, accordingly.” A polite nod followed, professional as ever—no matter his exasperation with the little blue imp.[break][break]
Perhaps it was a bit endearing. At a miniscule degree, of course.[break][break]
After seeing the beast out, there was nothing left to do but go back to business as usual in the interim.

I can have the schematics prepared on a usb just like this one before you leave today.” His fingers close around the one offered in exchange, and he turns it around in his hands idly before pocketing it. “I’ll be sure to review everything and work out the information with my staff well before launch.”[break][break]
Enzo’s nose wrinkled in mild distaste at the explanation, though this was something he’d been briefed on previously. When the actual hosts of this advent had booked the space. “That I’m well aware of. Though it should be plainly obvious that a ballroom is not the place for battles.” Still, they’d paid the deposit, as well as footed the bill for preemptive damages up front. It was a good cash flow, so reluctantly, he’d agreed.[break][break]
The suggestion of additional reimbursement, however, drew a clever smile. “I should hope so. Any extra cash that goes into my pocket will be acceptable compensation.” Pushing his empty cup to the side, he clasped his hands and leaned forward, “Sounds like we’re ready to start getting feet moving on the ground.”

“A good companion,” Enzo appraised, nodding shortly. His hand remained atop Cassius’ head. The houndoom let out a low wuff of acknowledgement. He liked to think, that after nearly a decade of collaboration, Cassius would do the same. Not that he had any desire to allow the old hound to be frozen in this tundra. But of course, obviously Mint hadn’t had any say in the matter, either.

Idly, he watched Mint send the weezing forward on attack. Uninterested in catching the arctovish that lingered in the water nearby, observing curiously with its blank, mindless stare.

His hands clasped behind his back as he strode forward, still listening as he stood in the shadow of the Aggron and peered up at it. It was strange to think that all of this was coming from someone like Mint, who he’d only ever known to be loud and somewhat obnoxious. He glanced back over his shoulder at the younger man. “You sound knowledgeable on the matter, and you can speak to experience.” The hint of a smile hooked at the corner of his mouth. “Perhaps you should be the one to spearhead an initiative.”

“You’ve come a long way, Mint.” He paused, though, frowning softly at the suggestion. “Well, surely it’s communicating with something, somehow. If it’s been able to stay hidden for this long.”

[attr="class","text"]“I wouldn’t mind that. I’m sure Miu would enjoy that very much, actually.” He paused, a thought lifting to the front of his mind. The heat that had crept up the back of his neck worsened. Though he didn’t blush. God forbid. “Oh, but you would have met her father in passing. At your opening, if you’ll recall.”[break][break]
He left it there, allowing her to put the pieces together at her discretion.[break][break]
Meanwhile, he followed the tracking of his lycanroc as she crept up on an unassuming annihilape. She leapt upon it, THRASHING until it flattened in reluctant submission.[break][break]
Though he admittedly expected more questions of a pressing nature, the one he was met with came unanticipated. It was far more sentimental in nature. Less playful. Enzo’s steps slowed, turning to look at Yumi. Really, earnestly look at her. [break][break]
He wasn’t offended by the question—if he’d been honest up to this point, he didn’t see why he would change tack now. It was simply that he wasn’t sure what she was looking for in whatever answer he gave. Hope, maybe? A reason to not wash her hands of her own estrangements?[break][break]
“When it first happened? No, I didn’t expect it.” A wry smile hooked at one corner of his mouth, “And at first, I’m not sure if I really cared. He defected. I was…hurt.” The grievance was one he didn’t usually air out. The justifications for it had been reasonable, but it had left him feeling insufficient. Not good enough.[break][break]
And Enzo was far too proud to accept that sort of insecurity with grace.[break][break]
“It was vindictive, at first. That feeling of if he turned up again, I could have that I told you so moment. And I did. But it didn’t matter really, at the end of the day. I knew what it really was.” He shrugged, hands slipping into his pockets.[break][break]
“Why do you ask, Yumi?”
