"Yeah no shit. Unless yer Kahuna 'r somethin'."
"Though I'm not sure if that's somethin' ya wanna be? It's usually fer life, anyway. 'cept for recently, I guess? Some bullshit with Koko."
He has no idea the former Kahuna is a honorary Skull, it seems.
"Moltres, hmm? Big fire bird, right?"
“Yeah, uhm. They don’t really… like people.”
As if that’s not the understatement of the century. Ree continues to scratch the inside of their wrist, thinking.
“Jirachi sounds pretty cool. That’s the one that wakes up every thousand years, right? Uhm… I met moltress, once…”
@livingshinycharm asked: " HEY YOU!" She is there, but no fight, she brought him a cupcake.
"Finally someone who doesn't wanna fight!"
He's eyeing the cupcake, but...
"...What's the ingredient list?"
Phew... Seems like he passed the vibe check somehow. At least for now, that was.
"Heh. Hey there, bud."
Archie lights up at the Crobat inspecting him, before pulling out a Pokéball and tossing it in the air. Out comes his own Crobat, battle-scarred beyond belief, but seemingly very content to be there.
Crobat makes a gentle clicking noise, curious about this other Crobat that's here.
"There we go. Now it's a playdate."
The only change in his expression so far: a narrowing of his eyes, scrutinising poor Archie further.
Hm.... on further inspection...
No, any familiarity must just be his imagination.
Cyrus finally cares to look away, breaking all the tension.
"That's unnecessary," He answers at once, before pausing, contemplating, and then switching his focus between Archie and the Crobat at his side. He cocks his head towards the stranger, and as if commanded to, Cyrus' Crobat breaks away from its owners space to investigate Archie. "- But that's what it wants to do, so very well."
"Warned ya." Can't kick him out for this then, right? He leans in closer... and bites his neck.
What's with this tension lads.
"What?"
He's leaning closer. Let's pretend he's doing it to assert dominance or whatever.
"Scared?"
"I am wearin' it, yeaAAAAHHH--"
"MATE THAT'S NO' THE SPEED LIMIT--"
Okay why did he agree to join this person in this vehicle of death. He's regretting it so badly right now. People can probably hear him scream from streets away at this point.
"I'LL WALK--"
Vicious just grinned and he settled into the driver's seat and started the vehicle. "Glad to hear we are understanding each other. Do make sure your seatbelt is on." It was a fair warning in his books before the car sped off, he was driving way faster than he should, he had no issue driving at that speed, and he was used to out-running cops nd whatnot. He wondered how much his new companion would freak out if he admitted he was half blind.

"...Does tha' mean I'm eatin' yer dinner?"
Now he feels bad. He was already shoveling the sashimi into his mouth and everything.
"I can save ya some."
She stuffed the cupcake partway in her mouth, making frosting get on her face.
"Oh!" She swallowed the bit she took " Kinda!I got it for later!"
She didn't even think twice about giving the food she bought to the other.
"Well, yeah, I've seen a fair bi' o' it all. But I still haven't seen e'rythin'."
The ocean was vast, after all. And deep, too. The depths were rather scary... Even for him.
"Ya really wanna go down there?"
"The ocean is really pretty! Now that I live near it I want to be able to explore it"
She seemed to drift off in thought a .oment bwfore looking back at him.
" I bet youve explored a ton of it!"
