cursedwithpuns[Hope looks stunned.
He's just witnessed his little Surskit who was working so hard at training turn into this weird moth thing. He blinks with a smile on his face before turning the camera to the Masquerain flying around his head.]
I don't really know what happened. One minute we were training and then suddenly he went all white and changed into this thing.
[The Masquerain starts flapping, seemingly annoyed at being called a 'thing'. Hope blinks at him before laughing. That was definitely his Surskit.]
Lightning! Ven! See?
[He grins showing it again.]

Date: 12/3/12 14:28 (UTC)[He gives a few deep breaths.]
So... why is he so happy to see me?
[Action]
Date: 12/3/12 14:33 (UTC)[Said as she wrings out her hair, tossing it back over her shoulder. It is instinct...one that's strong even after months of him not being here.]
You remember that I told you you'd been here before, right? He was your starter from your first time here. He never forgot you.
[She'd never been able to find the rest of his team the second time. It still bothers her a bit.]
[Action]
Date: 12/3/12 14:34 (UTC)[...]
So... he remembers the other me?
[That's... slightly disheartening. Hope is having confidence issues.]
[Action]
Date: 12/3/12 14:43 (UTC)Probably. Not that he seems to care.
[Indeed; one glance at Alexander will tell Hope that the giant tortoise really doesn't care that Hope doesn't remember. He just seems jubilant to have an old friend back...and he looks a few steps away from another crush-hug, if Lightning wasn't standing in his path.]
[Action]
Date: 12/3/12 15:06 (UTC)He doesn't. It's kinda easy to tell.
[Action]
Date: 12/3/12 15:15 (UTC)I did warn you he was loud, remember? Could give Snow a run for his gil with how expressive he is for being a giant tortoise.
[Action]
Date: 12/3/12 15:55 (UTC)[He grinned.]
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 02:52 (UTC)[A tiny chuckle. Alexander couldn't stomp on Snow the same way the Adamantoises could, but he could certainly headbutt him. ...Etro she misses that lug.]
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:08 (UTC)When Snow gets here we should make them try it!
[Because Hope knows they'll all be together again soon.]
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:14 (UTC)Think he can manage with a broken nose, or should I hold off on punching him for a while?
[They'll all find a way to be together again someday. They have to be.]
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:25 (UTC)[He grins at Lightning.]
Though it is kinda funny that you can floor him.
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:28 (UTC)[And that was just the first time. Fal'Cie...has it really been that long?]
You could knock him over too, you know. With enough practice.
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:31 (UTC)[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:33 (UTC)[Reaching out and...yep. Hair fluffles. So dedicated, lil' bro.]
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:37 (UTC)[Hope smiles.]
Absol learned Swords Dance. If he uses that and Pursuit, he really packs a punch.
[He pets the pocket where he keeps his pokéballs.]
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:44 (UTC)I'm sure. But can he outlast his opponent to give it that punch? All the strength in the world won't matter if he can't hit his target.
[It's an honest question; she's not trying to belittle his training methods or anything like that. She just wants to be sure he can defend himself if the need arise.]
Re: [Action]
Date: 13/3/12 11:46 (UTC)[He shakes his head.]
Which is why I train him first. Because he's so stubborn.
[Action]
Date: 13/3/12 12:08 (UTC)Have you tried to get him to stop doing that? It may get you in trouble soon.
[Action]
Date: 14/3/12 12:53 (UTC)[Mostly. But Lightning doesn't need to know that.]
[Action]
Date: 15/3/12 01:50 (UTC)Think he'll keep listening to you?
[Action]
Date: 15/3/12 13:11 (UTC)[Action]
Date: 15/3/12 14:09 (UTC)[She's not saying that because she thinks Hope won't be able to handle what gets thrown at him. She's saying because she wants him to know she's here if he needs anything at all.]
Re: [Action]
Date: 17/3/12 15:02 (UTC)[Hope just... well. That was an odd thing to say. He'll just have to prove that he doesn't need her help. Then maybe he'd be fine!]
[Action]
Date: 18/3/12 07:14 (UTC)Come on. Still want that soda?
[Action]
Date: 19/3/12 17:41 (UTC)[He smiles petting Masquerain and heading towards the mart.]
