"Ah, really?" He's delighted to be the first kindred spirit that Reagan has encountered in a region that was, apparently, new to them both. So-called 'experts' were a dime a dozen back in Kalos, where the fairy-type had been akin to a craze, but the professor's noticed that the other regions seem far less obsessed. "You may want to seek out Miss Alfric, as well! She is the gym leader here in Mauville, and she has many fairy-types!"[break][break]

Grass, as well, but it wasn't difficult to find information on one of the most common types.[break][break]

Perhaps Joli is drawn to Alfie because he senses something of Florian in the young boy: unbeknownst to most, the Sylveon was a support Pokemon, and he'd helped his trainer through the most trying of times. He was well-trained in recognizing human emotions and behavior patterns. Perhaps this is also why he shies away from Alex when the rough triplet lets go. There is an aggression within the boy that the Sylveon cannot appreciate the way he warms up to Amelia and Alfie.[break][break]

Florian crouches next to his partner and carefully takes his ribbons in hand, checking the Sylveon over for injuries. He looks up and smiles hesitantly at Reagan, distress clear in his expression.[break][break]

"I-I think he'll be fine," he says, with a brief glance toward the triplets. "He's just not used to people being so rough."[break][break]

Joli lets out a soft, almost sad trill of agreement as Florian scratches him behind the ears and stands. "Is Alfie OK?"[break][break]

Joli hadn't been the only one to notice the boy's shy temperament.

catch kirlia![break]


Florian can't help but to be astounded at the casual way Annie describes being drugged, robbed, and essentially kidnapped, like it's the most normal and acceptable thing in the world. He supposes that the League must keep tabs on the gyms and ensure that nothing untoward went on within their practices, but — but still![break][break]

"T-There is nothing comparable in Kalos, that I know of." Which, admittedly, he didn't know too much about the gyms beyond their types and leaders, with the exception of his hometown of Laverre. It had specialized in fairy-types, last he'd heard, so naturally he'd been obsessed with it. "I mean, accidents happen, but to have it be expected..."[break][break]

He tilts his head as she describes the Pokemon, then shakes it. He can only think of Scyther, who was not six feet tall and whose scythes were typically on its arms, not its head.[break][break]

He decides he doesn't like this gym leader, whether she paid for the medical bills of her unfortunate clients or not. Who trained their gym Pokemon to attack trainers? Was that even legal? He makes a mental note to inquire with .[break][break]

"I think you could more than handle Snowbelle," he agrees, with a weak laugh. "You seem very tough."[break][break]

Nearby, a Kirlia turns on his charms in an attempt to draw the attention of the trainers. The move was hardly needed: the moment Florian spotted the adorable fairy-type, he crooned softly in his throat and forgot all about his horror at the gyms.[break][break]

Kirlia puts on quite the show, dancing with the help of its double team and making it look as if there were a whole group of Kirlia moving with synchronized grace. Florian claps when the performance is finished with a bow.[break][break]

"You are very good at that!" he crows. "Won't you join us?"

Florian thanks the host as two glasses of water are set between them, smiling at them before they depart.[break][break]

Turning his attention back to the menu, he's more comfortably making suggestions now that he knows that coconut is the only thing that's for-sure off limits. It's been a while since he's had coconut curry himself... his stomach growls at the thought, and he laughs, sheepish.[break][break]

"Ah, well, it looks like they have a lot of the classics. Magikarp, Goldeen..."[break][break]

Such Pokemon were found in Kalosian waters, but he knew that they were not unique to the region by any means.[break][break]

"Have you ever had Clauncher meat?" he asks. "It's very popular in Kalos! I've heard that it's sometimes found on menus in Alola and Hoenn, but it's practically a staple back home."

catch clamperl![break]


"You broke your arm?!"[break][break]

Florian's eyes are wide, all thoughts of Slateport's gym disappearing in a haze of alarm. What sort of barbaric gym challenge could lead to such a dangerous conclusion? Annie seems to have recovered, at least, showing off the regained movement in the previously-broken arm, but his horror does not abate at the sight.[break][break]

"W-What kind of gym do they run in Oldale?"[break][break]

'If I don't break something else,' she says, so casually that Florian can hardly believe his ears. He had a lot of respect for the fiery determination and bravery of trainers, especially as young as Annie, but he couldn't relate for the life of him.[break][break]

His gaze is soft at the thought of home.[break][break]

"A wonderful region," he sighs, and then seems to reconsider, wrinkling his nose. "Provided you don't wind up stuck in Snowbelle. It's freezing there! Gorgeous, but... far too cold."[break][break]

As Florian kneels in the surf, to assist a Clamperl that's washed up tangled in a net, he glances up and smiles at her thanks. It delights him to know that there's one more trainer in the world willing to assess a wild Pokemon's disposition before going all-out in a battle.[break][break]

"You are most welcome," he gushes, carefully maneuvering bits of rope around the Clamperl's shell. It provides its thanks in a language he can't speak, but he can detect the relief. "You are as well, little one. You must be close to evolving..." It doesn't fit well in the confines of its shell, which is scored with signs of battles prior. "Lucky that didn't happen with this net around you!"[break][break]

Freeing it from the last of the ropes, he winds them around a strap of his bag. He's not about to cast them back into the sea, where they might harm other Pokemon.[break][break]

"Would you care to join me?"[break][break]

He taps it with a ball to accompany the question.

"Ah!" Florian exclaims, remembering something. "I try to keep tabs on others known for specializing in fairies: Miss Alfric of Hoenn runs a gym focusing around them. And grass-types, I think. Poison could help you with both."

Like fairy-types, Florian found that grass-types shared a delicate immune system that couldn't handle the shock of poison. He makes a mental note to track Cait Alfric down and introduce himself, some time.

"I am not sure where her gym is," he muses. "Not Fortree or Verdanturf, at least."

Alec's attention is drawn to a Binacle; they're native to Kalos, and Florian perks up gleefully.

"They are from my home region! You should see them when they become Barbaracle!"

Swirlix, too, hail from his beautiful Kalos. A sweet smell is carried on a fairy wind, the soothing power of aromatherapy. The professor closes his eyes, smiling as he's reminded of his Comfey. She had the very same knack for beautiful scents!

When he opens his eyes, they find the little Swirlix and his lips curve into a smile.

He pulls some homemade treats from his bag, knowing that Swirlix are notorious for their sweet-tooth. It hops forward, candy-cotton fluff and lolling tongue.

"There's more where that came from," he promises, offering a pokeball.



catch swirlix!

had to do some research on macarons l m a o


Florian tilts his head, an invitation to proceed with the question. Blue eyes glimmer with mischief, teeth flashing in a matching grin.
[break][break]
"It's a secret!"[break][break]

He holds that for a moment before laughing and shaking his head. It would be cruel to withhold such an important step from them, especially when it was clear they were enjoying his home-baked treats. Florian was a man who loved to share all that he knew.
[break][break]
"Most of the time they are just one flavour; it is food colouring that gives them such a beautiful appearance." But Alexei had been correct in determining the varied palate that Florian's desserts offered. "I use food colouring as well, but I also use various extracts, jams, and chocolates to make sure that the flavours match up with the colour! My favourite are the lemon and honey!"
[break][break]
He hunts around in the bag for one, breaking it carefully into two and handing one half to his friend. The other is popped into his mouth, chewed, and swallowed before he continues.
[break][break]
"I mix Combee honey — ethically sourced, of course! — in with the filling, and add lemon into the crust!"

not alexei's fault, he's still getting over some past ~issues


"Hot chocolate it is, then!"[break][break]

It seems like the perfect solution to chase away the winter's chill. Florian flips through the menu to view their selection of various little pastries and sandwiches, a soft rumble in his stomach reminding him it's been a while since he'd eaten anything. He'd been so anxious in preparing for the outing that he'd skipped breakfast! Oops.[break][break]

Florian looks up sharply from the menu — thankfully, the menu Alexei hides behind also shields him from the brief flash of alarm in the professors eyes.[break][break]

Don't be stupid, Florian scolds himself. This was a friendly outing, and Alexei was simply being nice.[break][break]

"Oh, it's all right!" he insists, not realising that Alexei is having an internal dilemma of his own. "That's incredibly nice of you, but I-I don't mind paying." Oh, dear. Would Alexei be offended that he'd refused? Anxiety is far more effective than the promise of hot chocolate in chasing away the cold. His collar burns. "U-Unless you really want to, of course! I-I'm fine either way!"[break][break]

The gift catches him further off guard. It's been a long time since someone's been this nice to him, and even then, such kindness had carried an expectation of—[break][break]

The scarf is beautiful, soft in his hands. His throat has closed up. His eyes sting. He's not going to cry.[break][break]

He blinks several times, at a loss for words.[break][break]

"A-Alexei, this is beautiful," he says at last, whisper-soft. The colour matches his eyes, his make-up. It suits him perfectly. The professor tastes blood from where he'd bit the inside of his lip. He's not going to cry, damn it. "A-Are you sure?"

i'm sorry abt him




"O-Oh, no, I couldn't possibly—"

[break][break]

Florian's cheeks flush crimson and he quiets his protests, noticing that Alexei's already got his wallet out and that the booth attendant has switched focus to the taller man.

[break][break]

Gifts make him uncomfortable for reasons he doesn't like to think about, but Alexei hadn't shown any malicious tendencies after gifting him the scarf, so... so it had to be all right, right? He tries to convince himself of this, glad that the mask hides the sudden doubt in his expression. His fingers toy with the edges of the scarf, and Joli leans against his trainer's calf in silent support.

[break][break]

He regulates his breathing as Alexei puzzles over a mask of his own, glad for the other's distraction so that he has time to gather himself.

[break][break]

Alexei was nothing like him. It would be an insult to compare the two. He knows that, but his heart rate — his racing thoughts — beg to differ.

[break][break]

By the time Alexei turns back with the Braviary mask, he's smiling bright. He giggles at Alexei's imitation of the Pokemon's cry, shaking his head.
His friend truly was adorable... nothing like the other to which he was so unfairly compared.
[break][break]

"It suits you perfectly!" What better mask for a lord of the skies? "Do you have a Braviary? Oh, I would love to try that game! I've never actually been fishing before..."

[break][break]

Anxieties are pushed out, ignored. This is a craft he has mastered.

he doesn't like to battle, but if he must, he will


Florian chuckles, ducking his head in a sheepish gesture. Secretly, he glows with pride: he is not normally the first choice for anything.
[break][break]
"Fairies are the natural enemy of dragons, yes," he agrees, nodding. He's much more comfortable sharing his knowledge than he is admitting to his boosted ego. "They have an advantage over ice-types in that they are immune to dragon-type attacks. I have my Borealis with me, as well, though! She is both ice and fairy. I don't think she's ever fought a dragon before."
[break][break]
As they start off in the direction of Oldale, Joli bounces happily at Florian's side. The professor gestures to him.
[break][break]
"Joli is an old hand at fighting dragons. I think he finds it to be quite the sport!"
[break][break]
Whether the Sylveon's trill indicates agreement, or just excitement at the knowledge that he's included in the conversation, Florian can't say for sure.
[break][break]
"That would make things easier..." Florian tilts his head as he considers Alexei's question. He avoids battle wherever he can, but sometimes it proves a necessary evil. A sigh ghosts past his lips. "But I do not think they would send the two of us all this way if not for some real possibility of threat..."

florian to the rescue!


Alexei looks horrible.[break][break]

Florian can't help the way his blue eyes go wide as he takes in the other's appearance: the wan pallor of his skin, the sweat beading on his forehead, the bags under his eyes. He looks like death warmed over. Florian's free hand flutters uselessly at his side as he struggles to formulate the proper response to... to this.[break][break]

"Alexei..." Voice soft with pity and concern, brow furrowed with worry. "Of course I'm here!"[break][break]

What were friends for, right?[break][break]

He's quick to obey the request, slipping inside the room with Joli at his heels. The door closes and plunges the room into darkness, but Florian doesn't dare to turn on a light. Instead, he stands blinking in the absence of light until his eyes adjust enough for him to make out the vague shapes of his friend's room. He navigates to the bed and sits on the edge of it.[break][break]

"What's wrong, mon amie? Is it the flu?" He knew that had been going around, lately. The idea that whatever ailed his friend might be contagious doesn't even cross the professor's mind. He's too focused on helping him get better. "Have you eaten? Drank plenty of water? I brought soup, and tea... it always helps when I'm under the weather!"

Sensing the Ribombee's alarm at having one of her precious flowers plucked from its stem, the tiny Pokemon with its ring of flowers drifts along the breeze toward the little bug. In an attempt to soothe, she holds out the flourishing red flower and tilts her head. It's as if she's saying, "Look, it's all right! The flower is blooming beautifully!"
[break][break]
"They're natural healers," Florian informs Alexei, looking fondly at his Comfey. "She is wonderful at aromatherapy. I don't know how she does it, but..."
[break][break]
He's always delighted to head out into the garden when Jonquille is around. Joli might have been his only support Pokemon that was registered and documented, but the Comfey's aromatherapy worked wonders to alleviate stress and anxiety as well.
[break][break]
The professor nods when he's told to wait, settling down on a nearby park bench and watching their Pokemon flit around the flower beds. Joli jumps up and curls in Florian's lap, kneading him like a cat. His large ears brush at Florian's chin and he giggles, ticklish.

Florian nods, glad that Alec's caught on and that the poor lad doesn't think he's suddenly declaring him an enemy out of the blue.

"Perhaps it is treachery to say this," he starts, tone low and conspiratorial in contrast to the goofy grin he wears, "but the secret to defeating fairies is to incorporate poison or steel into your strategy! They have a very delicate constitution."

Dragalge was, for that reason, the dragon-type that Florian feared the most. Duraludon, from Galar, was supposedly of similar threat, though Florian has yet to see one in person.

"Champion? A lofty goal!" He sounds impressed by Alec's determination. "I hear the region has been without one for some time, so now is your perfect opportunity! Though I suspect you'll have plenty of competition."

Florian, at least, would not be among such competitors. He knew how to battle, as any self-respecting field researcher would, but he did his best to avoid it where he could.

With his new bird-friend on his shoulder, still, Florian gestures with the other arm to the cave he'd emerged from.

"There are known to be dragons in Meteor Falls," he informs the boy, "so it is no surprise they are here as well!"

Rhyperior pulls a scary face at them, but upon realising Florian's intent is not to battle, it lumbers off.

He giggles a little at her reaction to the strong smells. It reminds him of when he'd first stepped foot into Slateport: the air reeked of fish Pokemon, and it had taken some getting used to.[break][break]

"That depends," he realises, upon glancing at the menu. He looks up with a tilt of his head. "Are you vegan or vegetarian, by chance?"
[break][break]
He didn't want to offend by suggesting something she wouldn't like.

Jonquille does not like this director. He is too loud and carries a negative energy. But Florian was counting on her to make a good impression, and the posy-picking-Pokemon was not about to let her trainer down!

Queenie's sweet scent is a pleasant contrast to the grumpy director. With a cheerful chirp, Jonquille adds to it with her own aromatherapy, spreading the soothing scent of her favourite flowers throughout the room. She handles these flowers with care and a certain wistfulness, knowing that she must sacrifice their petals in her dance.

But it would be OK! Florian has a beautiful garden full of flowers, and he'd brought plenty of them along as replacements. She would have petals for the final shoot, and she would go home with a whole new ring of flowers.

Eager to impress, the Comfey dances and twirls into frame, her flowers catching studio lights. When the music reaches a point she finds suitable, the little fairy scatters the petals and incorporates them into her dance. They drift lazily among the dancers, adding splashes of bright colour into their midst.

catch igglybuff! [sorry for the wait!][break]


Being relatively new to Hoenn, Florian's only familiar with a couple of the gyms. He hadn't been aware that Slateport even had a gym, and he tilts his head.
[break][break]
"Is Slateport an ice-type gym?"
[break][break]
She'd mentioned snow and hail, and he figures that would be a logical conclusion. Or perhaps she was planning to go on the offensive against grass or dragon-types.
[break][break]
"I only know of Verdanturf and Fortree's gyms," he confesses. "Do you have any badges? A weather theme sounds incredibly interesting!"
[break][break]
It was always inspiring to see trainers thinking outside of the box. He'd learned through various advertisements and gushing fans that Kyle Lopez of the Elite Four trained canines of all sorts. He'd met the man (and many of his dogs!) decorating Christmas trees in Slateport.
[break][break]
Florian seems delighted at the appearance of Frogadier.
[break][break]
"They are from Kalos, did you know?" He favoured the Fennekin line, personally, but all three of Kalos' signature Pokemon held a special place in his heart. They remind him of home. "Ah, and she is a wonderful dancer! Look at that!"
[break][break]
Florian, meanwhile, finds his attention drawn to a tiny pink ball that's also joined in on the dance. It's a bit of a copycat, only mimicking the moves of others, but it's trying ever-so-hard to impress. He giggles and bends down to pick it up.
[break][break]
"Aren't you adorable? Ah, I could just take you home! ... Could I?"
[break][break]
She responds by planting a sweet kiss on his cheek, and the professor laughs as he retrieves a Pokeball.
