i’m always willing to meet with one of my eight favorite gym leaders.

his words were as sweet as their tea and as calming as the atmosphere, upturned lips taking hold of the glass before releasing, a ‘clank’ sounding as it met the china that urged for a runition of it’s consortium.

a teddiursa sat at his side, the cub taking its time with a cookie as it’s trainer spoke to another.

i can’t say i’ve had the opportunity to take a break quite like this in a while, so when you presented it to me, well... i didin’t think passing it would be wise decision on my part.

calling for attention the teddiursa would pull on the man’s shirt, offering a portion of the cookie to him, only for kim to shake his head, reverting his attention back to cait.

you seem as well as your city, has everything been okay since our last meeting?

he understood her unease. not only were they trapped in here, but their shuffling around a certain subject kept it heavy in the air, causing the environment to be covered in a mist of awkwardness.

though it stayed on his mind, he refused to show his stress outwardly, putting up the front that everything was fine until he found the opportunity to speak his words freely.

it’s okay, you didn’t do anything wrong.

his words felt ironic given his current thought process.

but… since we’re here, and there’s no real way of gauging how long we will be… let's talk about something…

he figured she knew exactly what that something was about, but he’d give her one last look.

are you okay with that?

her request was quickly filled, a packet of crackers taken from the panty and placed by her side for consumption, milk returned to the fridge in the process.

taking out a clipboard, he’s look through the list, placing a question mark next to her choice.

i’m not looking for safe stormy, i’m looking for amazing. i want everyone that eats these to be shocked by how good they are and wanting more.

again, if he was going to do something, he was going to do it right, and his version of right is more than meets the eye, a simple cover with an extravagant showcasing; a fake out if you will.

i’ll keep it as a suggestion though.

anyone with ears and a pair of eyes knows that wasn’t enough to go off of, but he wouldn’t dare risk showing her what he had the displeasure of witnessing.

i know, everyone kinda blends together these days. but thats all i can really give you for looks.

idle hands would begin tapping at the table, eyes peering around the shop carefully, their attention drawn to the door quickly with each ring of its bell.

almost every male that entered looked like he could fit the description, and that’s what bothered him the most.

he was kept on edge, waiting for each that drew near to take their seat at his table, the tapping only progressing more intensely as they all went about their business.

it was agonizing.

a saving grace was that stormy was so willing to sit through this with him when she could just as easily told to take care of it himself.

stormy, i don’t think i’ve thanked you for your help.

the tapping ceased as he looked to her, his anxiety calming quickly.

i wouldn’t be able to get through this by myself, so i’m glad you came along. thank you.

more words pushed at him, their contents forcing a sense of pity, and while he felt foolish for acting as he did, he did not think himself in the wrong.

there was more to this than what had already been said, their feelings invalidated when in its light.

when caught, he’d turn, looking in her direction, his lips pursed into a light frown.

stormy, this isn’t just about friendship. i’m-

his words are cut short, a buzz sounding from their earpieces.

murkrows nest coming in, we have spotted multiple groups approaching, we and ground level have engaged one but a second group is headed your way, we will assist you after we finish here.

understood, just handle your end and we’ll handle ours.

a switch flipped, his mind reverting to a business orientated state, pushing away any previous thoughts.

with eyes locked forward, he’d speak to stormy, the pain once heard in his voice most unrecognizable.

we’ll talk more later, right now we drop this. there's work to be done.

his hand moved to release two pokemon, a gothorita and kirlia, the two a little uneasy as their trainers tension transferred to them; their mental connection stifling briefly before evening out.

they were no longer allowed the luxury of speaking so freely.

i could say the same thing.

his lips forced themselves into a pained smile as he kept his sight forward.

the way you looked when i said what i did was a look of guilt. yet instead of telling me what it was you felt guilty about, you kept it from me, only for it to come out like this.

of course i don’t think you’re a murderer- even if your intervention had come too late to stop the outcome- i just thought you trusted me enough to give me the truth outright.

a chuckle sounded as he rubbed his cheek.

i guess i trust you more than you trust me.

it stung more than he cared to admit, the fact that he had determined this as truth as well as her need to keep something so crucial from him; whether it be out of fear for their friendship or otherwise.

her actions- or inactions rather- burned him up inside, eating away at him until his emotions had come out in such an unintentional way.

but it was too late to return his words, they were out in the open and retaliation had already been met.

brows furrowed and the bridge of his nose ruffled. the passive aggressiveness had come to an end, pure aggression taking its place.

his eyes- filled with irritability- looked to her, reflecting any anger she bore back.

you’re disappointed? i thought you better than to kill another person, or sit aside and do nothing as others are killed before you, yet you have the audacity to be disappointed in me?

you’re on thin ice, silph.

his words burned of venom, its toxicity peaking with a final name drop.

the malignant nature of his words would quickly dissipate as he returned his attention forward, hands clenching together as he regained his senses.

... i want to believe you stormy, that's why i brought you here. i trust you, and i don’t want to lose that trust.

his eyes would settle on stormy, a somewhat worried look on his face as she stumbled on her words. it looked like she was not in the slightest a fan of this situation.

he could understand that, it wasn’t something favorable for either of them. but she seemed to be taking this harder than him, in fact, she looked about ready to panic.

that wouldn’t do, the last thing he wanted was for her to go into a stupor from fear or otherwise.

stormy, relax, i’m sure it won’t be long before we get out of here. just… pace your breathing for now.

he’d give an example, slowly breathing in then exhaling just as slowly, prompting for her to follow in the steps given.

happy to have a partner so eager to begin, kim would try to do little to damper her excitement with his instructions.

i want you to begin wherever you want, and tell me what you think of each after you’ve eaten one.

quick steps were taken over to the fridge as he pulled out two newly bought jugs, one of water and one of milk, a tall, clear glass taken from the cabinets and set next to her before speaking again.

after you’ve eaten one, i want you to cleanse your palate before eating another. would you rather water or milk?

if kim was going to do this, he would do it correctly. she needed a good taste of each and every one to properly gauge the deliciousness of what she had eaten.

kim was just as impatient is stormy, his leg moving a mile a minute being the only outward showing of restlessness.

stormy’s question only made his jittering worse as he set his stagnant foot onto the other, calming its twitchiness as he spoke.

they were supposed to show up a while ago. as for their looks the only thing i have to go on is the drawings… and they aren’t something i’d care to show you, especially here.

even the thought of the contents that he had witnessed made his stomach churn with unease, the mental depiction forcing any hunger brought about by the scent of pastries to be erased, instead replaced with the putrid feeling of disgust.

to create such atrocities is one thing, but to force said work on another was sure to churn anyone’s guts.

from the pictures they’re male, caucasian, a little shorter than me, and have a fuckboy haircut-

he’d clear his throat, the last mention slipping out unintentionally. cursing was not an aspect he wanted to add to his professional yet lighthearted public image.

though the exact details were a little fuzzy, whether it be just from denial or otherwise, kim’s knowledge of the situation was as follows: a group of league members set out on an operation resulting in two casualties created by the league- the rest of information was invalid.

it made kim sick thinking of someone taking another life, and the fact that the ones who had done it were league made it that much worse.

to top it off stormy played a part in this operation, one of the people he thought he could trust now halfway crossed off his very short list.

every time he thought on it, it felt as if magma flowed through his veins, cooling quickly as a wave of disappointment washed over him. it was frustrating.

the only way to quell these feelings were to give her the benefit of the doubt, asking for her assistance on this mission in order to not only give her a chance to prove him wrong about the troubles that caused this stress, but to earn some semblance of trust back.

… yet another mind anticipated that they would not have to deal with any rockets, afraid of what she might do in the situation.

the only thing they could do is wait at the current moment.

at a low volume, kim would speak towards stormy, eyes locked forward as he did.

i’m trust you’ll keep a cool head if they make their way back here. i wouldn’t want you to get ahead of yourself.

his words had a bit of backbite, their referencing obvious; but he refused to hold his tongue on the matter.

day had turned to night quicker than anticipated, a memo of retrieving something from his penthouse popping into his mind after a long day of scuttling about with stormy, the duo helping each other with their problems in quick succession.

an offer was presented to accompany him in order to retrieve said item before they went to fetch dinner, one taken; which would soon be regretted.

idle chatter that once filled the confines of the elevator was cut short, a malfunction stopping the lift in place.

silence would overtake the two for a moment before their struggle began, a call for help unanswered as well as attempts made to pry themselves out being in vain. they were as stuck as stuck could be until help had arrived.

a sigh escaped kim as he leaned against the railing within the elevator.

i guess we should make ourselves comfortable for a bit… sorry i dragged you along for this.

it’s hard work being league affiliated, kim would know that better than anyone, so when the option of continue to run about the region to continue helping or prepare a non-valentines, valentines party for his peers was brought up, obviously the ladder was chosen.

so far everything was easy to organise, he could get a rec room cleared, order specialty made finger foods as well as utensils, napkins, and tableware, but what he couldn’t decided on was the most important part of this event.

the sweets.

valentines day is all about the sweets, but when there are so many to choose from, choosing the perfect ones is a hard thing to do, and he couldn’t just buy a truckload of every one of them, this had to be special, as special as this day that they aren’t exactly celebrating, but technically are.

he needed someone who was willing to not only put up with his pickiness, but someone who was willing to eat copious amounts of chocolate until they gave him a satisfactory answer.

unfortunately, he wasn’t sure of anyone who would actually fit the bill for these two very specific things, so he went with the best bet he had; stormy.

after inviting her to a home located in sootopolis, kim would roll out an array of sweets on a cart next to the kitchens bar where he had sat her. the sweets were in the dozens, chocolate cake, chocolate covered fruits, normal chocolate, you name it; if it was chocolate, kim had it to sample, all stormy had to do, was take her pick.

another new feeling had arose within kim, the first time someone had given him attention that he didn’t want.

it seemed the debonair personality he had taken with people had finally decided to bite him in the ass, in a way most unexpected.

honestly, it was a little surprising that this hadn’t happened sooner.

a stalker had appeared out of nowhere, their heed for attention starting with simple messages sent to his dms on social media. these messages were filled with praise and other nice words, boosting his ego that much more; kim rewarding them with a response back, carefully worded thanks given in return.

gradually they turned to something more on the nose… fan fictions of him and the sender with art depicting unspeakable acts between the two.

this prompted kim to stop responding, eventually blocking the sender after various notifications pushed him over the edge.

kim thought himself free of the nuisance until he was notified of the mail that resided in one of his homes by the pokemon that lived within.

threats, unbacked blackmail, slander, and lies, all written and delivered to one of his many addresses, scorn set in ink with every note written.

the foul intentions angered kim, almost hasting him to arrange a meeting with this person alone to have a one on one, but he figured his emotions would get the better of him if he had, so instead he called a friend, someone he figured he could count on enough to get the job done, he only hoped she could keep a cool head through this, because he sure wouldn’t.

a meeting was arranged in the city where this person lived after a quick look at the address each of said messages originated, a local coffee shop chosen to force their social composure be kept.

he couldn’t wait for this scumbag to show themselves so he could have stormy have a word with them.

all squads, report in. back line is active.

a hushed tone rung through earpieces, each quickly answered with their proper callsigns.

murkrow’s nest in place.

ground level, ready for action.

a squad of six capable units including himself was all kim needed to intercept any grunts that set their sights on mauville. no promises of praise nor promotion were given, the only thing asked were for those like minded in a sense of protection to be recruited.

after a quick briefing, kim would assign positions of interception, high ground for a birds eye view and to spot them before they spot us. ground level to meet them face to face, hopefully dealing with them there. and back lines to stop any stragglers that slipped through their defenses.

this back line consisted of stormy and kim, a duo with enough power to apprehend any group of grunts that tried to expand their reach into a city, but 12 eyes are better than four.

besides, kim was all too confident in the ability of those recruited to even dare bother any further than a warning on her part.

one final message before we go quiet- arrest them with as little brutality as you can.” for the briefest of moment he would look over to his comrade, stormy, a slight look of discomfort on his features before returning his gaze forward. “i repeat, as little brutality as you can. kim out.

with that, the councilman would snap his fingers, the skitty once standing idly by his side, dashing forward, another set of eyes to watch for movement.

a silence would overtake kim as he picked at his words, trying to find what exactly to say to her. but the words that had usually came to him easily were caught in his throat, unwilling to part his lips.
