Wait, he already had this one, right?

A quick backtrack through his tattered compilation of ‘notes’ on his PokéGear showed that—yes, indeed he did have a Karrablast already.

Hilariously, it was the other companion Pokémon that he apparently didn’t have… if his notes were right, at least.

He then left the Karrablast alone and continued his hike deeper into the Safari Zone—he was legitimately running out of time…

What a mess.

Was this what had happened during the time Rocket was simultaneously taking over Sootopolis? Around the time a certain pinkette had taken a supposed selfie with another legendary Pokémon?

Well…

“What the fucking hell?”

He then selected the ‘attack with your Pokémon’ and then realized he could definitely—

A brief cackle escaped him as he then unleashed the Wandering Stormbringer, Tornadus himself—against the equally strange, ‘draconid’ Pokémon.

(Attacking with TornadusDragon Hammer)

The ugly noise that escaped him as he watched his boyfriend sink into the hot water without a single care in the world—

“Easy for you to say!” he went on with a cringe, finally sitting down—but not directly in the water, yet—just his legs up to his knees in the water (he was sitting at the edge).

“I feel like a piece of steaming bun,” he added a few moments later as he grabbed one of the towels and laid it over his lap.

“I don’t remember this place being this hot…”

Vincent the Lucario squinted over at his counterpart and was wondering why she was getting ready to be violent, and his eyebrows went up so high they threatened to disappear into his ears. That was really scary.

“Whoa, Vince,” he hummed quietly as he looked over at his concerned Pokémon.

“Uhh… love?” he continued as he turned to face his partner. “Freya’s starting to scare the crap out of Vince. What’s she wanting to do?”

And then he remembered what Memo had mentioned—

“What do you suggest, then? Get to their level and… uh, try to figure out the way they think? Like, what makes them—them?”

“I can do you one better,” he chuckled as he broke off a sizable piece of the fried dough, an attempt to balance it more on the plate as he began nibbling on it.

“Oh wow. This is tasty,” he remarked around the mouthful he was eating.

“We should get more of this. Well, after this piece.”

He continued to hack and chew away at the piece of fried dough.

“Is there like, anything else we can get to eat? I’m hungry.”

“It was, really just one choice would change everything.”

Remember that time when they went diving? Yeah. That was pretty much it.

“Sorry if I kept you waiting,” he apologized again as he turned red under the affectionate touch. “I just really needed to be absolutely sure. And I’m pretty sure that I did make the right decision.”

After a few moments of silence, he took another sip of his drink.

“Thank you.”

The moment his boyfriend mentioned ‘teleported’, oh boy…

“…do I need to find someone from my armada that has Imprison and knows Teleport so we can catch the little shit?”

At least it wasn’t any member of the innocent ovine horde. He knew that there were several sets of beady eyes watching the meltdown happening—and steering clear of the two as much as possible because at least this time they knew they had absolutely nothing to do with this!

“How do we catch it, if I can’t find my Imprison Pokémon in time?”

The Wooloo hanging around his feet let out a small ‘baa?!’ of surprise as he rolled up towards the herd master, hopefully sniffing the air for a macaron before he looked down.

“No, Will, you can’t have these, this has way too much sugar for safe ovine consumption,” he chastised, before the smile upended itself and he got a bonk to the calf before said ovine rolled away towards Memo, in an attempt to get some scraps because he was hungry!

“Uh-oh. Beggar alert imminent!” he cackled softly, watching as the Wooloo gave his boyfriend the ‘cute ovine eyes’ mode.

“They said, those who smile the most have the most terrifying tempers… and that’s apparently true with me.”

There was this watery look on his face as the hackles retracted—for now. For the moment.

“However if anyone does anything bad to the people I care about, I will not hesitate to lash back. You should know that, too, since you’re one of the few people I completely care about—my sestras aside of course.”

He then returned the booping gesture with a light forehead flick.

“You think you’ll have a better time talking to her compared to me?”



this happens sometime after Anna’s visit. Good luck calming him down, Frog.

“You don’t look fine,” he continued quietly, a bite of concern edging into his voice as he held the other man closer. “You’re… there’s black… something black, sticky, I don’t know… dripping out of your eyes…”

That set him on high alert.

Somewhere nearby, the Wandering Stormbringer continued to circle around quietly, making sure that nothing else would turn up and catch them both at a vulnerable time.

“I saw her. Caught her red-handed. Literally gave this disembodied scream before disappearing… what were you really doing?! It looked like… you were dying.”

“Thank you,” he hummed as he turned red under the touch and the little gesture.

Okay, so maybe there was a little something he craved for asides from building an emotional connection first. Wasn’t that a little tease.

“Would… would you still want to know… what happened to me after I got taken by the light?” he asked quietly as he, in return, snuggled up closer to his boyfriend—no, his life partner.



timeline: close to present day. Happens several weeks after by the dawn & fly me over yesterday; definitely after Frog’s birthday so yes they’re already boyfriends by this time

He knew it was such a tall ask for his boyfriend to surrender all control to him, even if it was just for a few hours at a time—he knew how these things went, especially now that he knew the other’s entire story through the ‘dark years’.

“Thank you for allowing this to happen,” he hummed quietly as he felt the ‘little spoon’ curl up around him.

He hummed quietly as he ran his hand through his partner’s hair.

“How… how did you feel? Like, really. Honestly.”

The next thing that appeared afterward—well, it was something he already had the fully-evolved form of.

To be fair he was only here for three particular Pokémon, but then again he knew how much loved her own Roselia so… he’d be making exceptions to this trip this time.

(This was even if he already had a Roserade of his own.)

He then let the Flabébé dance by on the air currents, turning towards another part of the Safari Zone to continue his searching.

“In some region far from here, apparently—they have sandwiches that have this kind of content, so—” he chuckled quietly as the Combee buzzed over to Andrea, circling her a few times before returning to where he was trying to pick out the next ingredient.

Okay, so he had the cream and the sliced strawberries… what else, what else—

Ah!

“This one?” he asked the Combee, who hummed enthusiastically as she circled around the sliced apples before he picked up a few and layered it atop the cream.

How were those sweet sandwiches made again…?

He scanned the table but his Combee was faster than him, flitting over to where the whipped cream stood waiting, and grabbed the container. Now where was the spoon…?

“I should’ve grabbed this first, don’t you think?” he cackled quietly, to which the Combee gave a confused little buzzing noise. Ah well.

Time to apply the thick whipped cream…
