Ahhhh!! Souuuu!?

[ Not for the first time, her hoppip had started to drift away, caught in the wind of another pokemon simply flapping its wings once. Used to this, Christia immediately gives chase and is followed behind by one startled togepi. ]

Sou, come back--!!

[ that drifting hoppip would have smacked Joonhee right in the face if not for Yoonjae. she lets out her typical battle cry and charges, beak gaping.

...this is a familiar situation. ]

Hey, hey, hey! Stop that! [ Joonhee has to practically fight Yoonjae for the hoppip, it takes a bit of a shuffle and neither win. Doraji manages to tangle her sprout with the other hoppip's and tug the poor thing away from Yoonjae. don't be scared, she's lived through the exact same thing. ]

[fervour]

[ Despite the beating up, Sou still appears to be rather happy and pleased.

And by this time Christia has caught up, breathing hard as she looks into the face of Sou's apparent rescuer -- a familiar face. ]

Ah, Joonhee-san!! You've saved Sou, thank you so much...!

[unended]

[ he still has an arm around Yoonjae to hold her back just in case she gets excited again. ]

Miss Christia? [ wasn't expecting a familiar face. ]

It's no problem, Doraji did more than I did. [ his hoppip makes squeaks a little at her name, peering at Christia from where she's sitting in Joonhee's hood. Sou is squished in there too with her. ]

[fervour]

[ Hijiri the togepi waddles behind, staring up the familiar faces and the ... other pokemon. Sou, on the other hand, is still beaming happily as it thanks the other of its kind and says nothing more. ]

Just Chris is okay, Joonhee-san. And, thank you, Doraji! [ She'll wave at that other hoppip and walk closer. Sou, come back home...! ]

[unended]

Ah...all right then. [ he turns a bit so that Christia can pry her hoppip from his hood. it's been a while since Doraji has had a chance to hang out with her own species though so she still has her sprout curled around Sou's. ]

Hey...don't be like that. [ he twists a bit to shake the two of them. can't stay in there forever guys.

...actually, you better not make eggs in his hoodie. ]

[fervour]

[ Sou doesn't particularly seem to care as Christia slowly tries to retrieve him. When she succeeds, she hugs him to her chest. It's so good to have you back...!

Tucking her chin on top of him, she peers over at Doraji curiously. ] Does she fly away a lot too, Joonhee-san?

[unended]

[ Doraji does let go and uses her sprouts to cling to Joonhee's hood instead. she gives a little goodbye squeak to Sou. ]

She holds on pretty tight, I think she's afraid of drifting off. [ he adjusts his hood a bit so that her weight is sitting more evenly. she's light but it's weird when the weight is lopsided. ]

I didn't expect to see you here, are you taking the train too?

[fervour]

[ Sou lazily waves. ]

Sou drifts off a lot, everytime I take my eyes off him... [ She gives a small sigh. ]

[fervour]

[ And then perks up. ] Yes! I heard a lot about Kanto, so I wanted to head over and take a look!!

[unended]

[ she hides at the wave. come on Doraji, you were all friendly just seconds ago. ]

Hmm...Yoonjae flies off sometimes but she always comes back, maybe it'd be the same for Sou? [ Yoonjae gives Sou a dirty look, is she being compared to that little thing? really? ]

[unended]

I'm going to be taking the train to Kanto as well, do you want to sit together? [ six hours is a pretty long ride after all, it's easier to pass with some company. ]

[fervour]

It, It feels like if I don't chase him, he'd disappear forever...

[fervour]

-- ah, okay! The more the merrier, right?

[unended]

[ ...perhaps she should invest in a leash? or keep him in the pokeball though Joonhee himself is reluctant to leave any of his in there too long. ]

It's a long ride, so they can entertain each other at least. [ the pokemon he means, as opposed to using him as a toy. ]

[fervour]

[ A leash would be nice. Make the suggestion, Joonhee! ]

Yes!

[ Hijiri walks forward, peering up curiously at Doraji and Yoonjae. ]

Ticket, ticket-- Um, where do I buy a ticket...?

[unended]

[ if he sees how bad the problem is he might, though for now he'll just lead Christia to the ticket counter. ]

It's that way. You can use the train pass as much as you like so keep it safe. [ maybe it's because she seems so carefree he feels like he should...steer her to the right place. ]

[unended]

Ah...hello, remember me? [ he smiles and waves at Hijiri. ]

[fervour]

[ it's a good thing he does because she was just about to walk in a large circle towards the counter. ]

Okay!! I'll look after it well. [ and she bounces off to buy a ticket while Hijiri chirps happily at Joonhee, waving its hands up and down. ]

[fervour]

[ -- and she's back! ]

I got it!

[unended]

I think there's a train leaving soon, do you have everything? Everyone? [ he does a double check of his pokemon as well though maybe it'd be good to put a few of them into the pokeballs for the ride. then again most of the passengers didn't seem to mind much. ]

[fervour]

Um... [ she looks down to the hoppip in her arms.

and then to the togepi by her side.

and then to her bag. ]

[fervour]

I'm ready!!
