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: 14/2/12 12:18 (UTC)At the same time, Hope's got a Vaporeon sniffing around his legs. Looks the same, smells the same...]
Thanks. I've got an Altaria too, but I loaned him to a friend.
[Meanwhile, a tiny Pikachu wiggles his way out of Ven's shirt, preens at his ears a bit, and pauses when he spots Hope]
Pika!
[Hi there Hope, it's been ages]
[Action]
Date: 14/2/12 12:24 (UTC)I guess it's nice to meet you all again.
[He smiled warmly.]
[Action]
Date: 14/2/12 12:27 (UTC)Namely...drops her head right on top of Hope's. It's the same thing her mother did to her trainer, clearly it's a greeting for special people]
-Aura, I told you...
[Ven winces, knowing while she's not heavy, she's big and fairly strong]
Re: [Action]
Date: 15/2/12 08:36 (UTC)Hope wobbles slightly, while she wasn't heavy, it was definitely a... shall we say presence on his head? He recovered a moment later and reached up to pat her.]
I guess that means I'm pretty popular.
[Action]
Date: 16/2/12 05:14 (UTC)Course, you're Hope.
[Action]
Date: 16/2/12 10:26 (UTC)[And there is a mild insecurity that he has to live up to his own legacy. Which... is confusing to him as well.]
But I am.
[Action]
Date: 16/2/12 10:40 (UTC)You're you, they'll like you all the same. Memories are important, sure, but you can always make new ones.
[Action]
Date: 16/2/12 12:36 (UTC)[He shakes his head at the poke. As if stunned. Hey. Don't you poke me! He grins and pokes you back.]
Hey.
[Action] oh wait he was eleven, haha
Date: 17/2/12 05:18 (UTC)For what it's worth, I can understand. A handful of years back, I lost my memory.
[Action] - The Icon is his inner competitativeness
Date: 17/2/12 09:49 (UTC)[Poked. Right. This means... war. He pokes back again.]
[Action] aww squishy
Date: 17/2/12 09:51 (UTC)[Punctuated...with a poke]
I've made a lot of good memories since then. And it means I can understand how you feel, so I don't think it's that bad.
[Action]
Date: 17/2/12 10:25 (UTC)I guess. Thanks Ven.
[Why, yes. He can totally understand why he was friends with this guy!]
[Action]
Date: 17/2/12 10:29 (UTC)What're friends for, right?
[Obviously the poking has worked its magic]
Re: [Action]
Date: 17/2/12 10:42 (UTC)[Poke! and Run!]
[Action]
Date: 17/2/12 10:46 (UTC)[What is that, Hope? Is this poking tag?
Because it is now]
Re: [Action]
Date: 17/2/12 13:06 (UTC)[Action]
Date: 17/2/12 13:09 (UTC)And a poke for the back of Hope's head when he catches up]
Re: [Action]
Date: 17/2/12 13:12 (UTC)However, in attempting to jump backwards, he misplaced his footwork, and fell flat on his butt.
And oddly? This was the funniest thing in the world.]
[Action]
Date: 17/2/12 13:15 (UTC)You know, the first time I met you, we tripped over each other. Us and this other boy, Enma.
[Which was clearly the start of some beautiful brostuff]
Re: [Action]
Date: 17/2/12 14:02 (UTC)[He stood, grinning and dusted off his butt.]
Not at all.
[Action]
Date: 17/2/12 14:07 (UTC)[He figures Hope's kidding with him, so he'll roll with it]
Re: [Action]
Date: 17/2/12 14:10 (UTC)[Except all of the time.]
When I was a kid, I used to have bandaids on my knees and elbows all the time.
[Action]
Date: 17/2/12 14:25 (UTC)From stuff other than tripping?
Re: [Action]
Date: 17/2/12 14:32 (UTC)[He's teasing you.]
My mom always used to say I had a talent for it.
[Action]
Date: 17/2/12 14:36 (UTC)[He knows about Hope's mom, but only that she's gone and it can be quite the sensitive issue. This might be the first time he's gotten to hear something like that about her]
Think you've honed it into a skill by now?
