cursedwithpuns[Hope had gotten up early this morning. After speaking to Lightning on the phone everyday since he arrived? The anticipation of seeing her again was making him fidget. His Absol was standing down by his feet. Watching him pace.
Hope is basically waiting for his welcome wagon to arrive. Feel free to stop by and poke him, call him on the cell or whatever you please really.]

Date: 12/2/12 01:41 (UTC)[He looked down and then up at here again. He kind of felt a little bit numb but in a good way. He hugged her again. He felt safe now. Lightning would take care of him.]
Thanks.
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 01:43 (UTC)[She would take care of him. She'd make sure he'd be safe and happy and had everything he needed here. That was the promise she made to herself as she hugged him back, arms wrapped tight around his shoulders. There was just one thing she couldn't figure out.]
For what?
Re: [Action]
Date: 12/2/12 01:46 (UTC)[Hope smiles and squeezes her tight. Having momentarily forgotten that he had someone else to introduce he turned and gestured to the Absol that had been eyeing Lightning since she got here.]
This is Absol.
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 01:51 (UTC)Have you been training him?
Re: [Action]
Date: 12/2/12 01:54 (UTC)[He smiles as Absol advances on Light, staring intently before he doesn't sniff her, just merely looks to Hope and then nods a slight approval of Lightning. Hope nudges him.]
Come on Absol. She's... [How did he say this? Oh! That's right.] She's family.
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 02:04 (UTC)And while Absol's cold approval makes her shake her head, she doesn't seem to mind all that much. The family comment, on the other hand, really does warm her heart. She's glad it's mutual.]
Give him time. He's not the first family member to not like me right away.
Re: [Action]
Date: 12/2/12 02:14 (UTC)[He smiles. He knows it's protective.]
I also have another pokémon. A Hoppip. She wasn't doing well in the cold so I took him into the shelter with us. We wound up battling, she wanted a challenge and I caught her!
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 02:25 (UTC)You might want to hold off on training her, then. The weather's supposed to get cold again soon.
Re: [Action]
Date: 12/2/12 04:13 (UTC)[Hope looked down at his Pokéball.]
Is there a weather report somewhere or something? [He took out his pokegear and looked through it.] I haven't really worked this out yet.
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 04:18 (UTC)These have games on them, too, but you should be careful with those.
Re: [Action]
Date: 12/2/12 11:54 (UTC)[He memorizes the movement to the weather report. It'd be handy. He smiles up at Lightning, the smile not even fading a little.]
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 15:57 (UTC)They are, but you don't want to get addicted and forget to go outside, do you?
Re: [Action]
Date: 12/2/12 15:59 (UTC)[He said with a laugh, giving her a nudge.]
It'll give me something to do while the snow is falling.
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 16:01 (UTC)You won't get bored, Hope. There's a lot of things to do here when the weather's bad.
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 16:05 (UTC)[Hope gave him a scritch of the ear, which he accepted his eyes closing for a moment.]
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 16:06 (UTC)[And the rest of them, too. On that note...there's a lot she's got to tell him but she's not sure how to start that conversation, so...]
What do you say we go inside? There's some things you should know before we go any further.
Re: [Action]
Date: 12/2/12 16:07 (UTC)I got a room at the Inn like you said.
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 16:09 (UTC)[There may be nothing to watch for, but she means that...even if it's mostly so he doesn't see her face for a bit. Etro, how is she going to tell him all he needs to know...]
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 16:25 (UTC)[He leads the way back to the inn. Thinking about the questions he had to ask Lightning.]
The hot chocolate here is nice. And the Lady puts extra marshmallows on it for me in the morning.
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 16:38 (UTC)Enjoy it while you can. It's a week's walk to the next town once we leave.
Re: [Action]
Date: 12/2/12 17:09 (UTC)[Hope smiles at Lightning.]
But a week? Wow... How far is it?
[Action]
Date: 12/2/12 17:12 (UTC)[As for how far...well, she's not sure.]
I've never tried to measure it, but it's still a long walk. It doesn't take as long to fly over, though.
Re: [Action]
Date: 14/2/12 10:55 (UTC)[Hope blinked. He hadn't seen any airships since he got here he was sure of it! Or... was he?]
[Action]
Date: 14/2/12 10:59 (UTC)[But she will be damned if she lets you up on a bird, lil' bro. It's so not happening.]
[Action]
Date: 14/2/12 11:02 (UTC)[Super excitable midget is excitable!]
There are pokémon big enough to fly us around? That's so cool!
