Keh... if there's any city I'm tired of seeing, it's Violet...

[The scene is the Pokemon Center lobby in Violet, where Kaito is standing, leaning against the wall with his trusty Aipom perched on his shoulder. He's sporting a baseball cap today, the brim pulled over the front of his eyes, shielding parts of his expression. His tone makes him sound ( Read more... )

[So you're just doing your magic tricks for some NPC dudes/dudettes who happen to be walking by, cool. Well Byrne sees you, recognizes you right off the bat and wants to come say hi. But instead of interrupting your show to run up to you and be all like HAY WATZUP, he politely lets you finish your show, watching from the sidelines and being all interested and whatnot. Magic is kind of interesting, after all!

And then after you're done and the crowds disperse, Byrne just sort of, y'know, shows up beside you with little to no warning, warm smile on his face and just being normal friendly Byrne. OHAI FRIEND OF KAY!

Also, there happens to be a Vulpix following him and a random Wooper on his shoulder, smiling a derpy smile at everyone. This is normal, do not panic.]

So, you're a magician?

Bellsprout? [Pause. What were those again? OH YEAH] Oh those things? I hardly ran into them. It was Rattata and Caterpie that gave me trouble.

I swear, they must spawn or something with how many of them attack you out there!

Just like a video game, right?

The worst kind!

[Byrne laughs...then he kneels down too, mainly so he can pet Little Thief who's STILL been all :| this whole time. She appreciates the love though! As shown by how she smiles upon being scratched behind the ears.]

In some crazy way, though, it's all been worth it so far.

... [his grin softens]

I can understand.

[There's a sort of reflective pause for a moment, as Byrne's thinking to himself, watching the Woopers and petting Little Thief.]

So, what's there to do in this wonderful world of Pokemon? Beyond fighting armys of vicious rats and plants and bugs, of course.

Traveling. [a snort] It's not much, but it's better than sitting around in one city the entire time.

True. If you're going to make the most out of your time here, you might as well see all you can see, right?

Some of us think getting the badges would send us home, too. And you can't get the badges without traveling.

Mm.

[And slight frown. Yeah, Byrne finally decided to read that dang Trainer's Handbook and he learned about those badges. Getting one involves training your Pokemon up to challenge some guy with other Pokemon.

Which involves fierce battling.

Which is...almost cruel.

...See, Byrne's been in a moral tizzy over these Pokemon battles ever since he first got into fights with other trainers. He can see why someone would be concerned about the crazy rabid wild Pokemon, but having fight-until-you-faint contests with people to see whose Pokemon are stronger? Yeah, sure, the Pokemon seem to enjoy it, but...gah, Byrne is too easily bothered by these sorts of things. Doesn't help that he's gotten rather attached to his team - they're practically his adopted kids. Would you send your kids out to fight someone else's kids until they fainted?? ...This is his weird sappy logic, anyway.

Plus, someone named Riku suggested Pokemon breeding, which sounds much nicer and safer and hey, raising baby Pokemon! That sounds like a lot of fun!]...You think ( ... )

[Kaito suffered through the same moral dilemma when he first arrived in Johto, but after watching how much his Pokemon enjoyed the rough and tumble battles (and how they always came out of those battles okay) it eventually stopped bothering him. He'd never force a Pokemon to fight if they didn't want to, and he certainly wouldn't force other trainers to fight if they felt the same way]

... I dunno. Breeders mostly breed their Pokemon and sell their eggs. 'M not sure where that would get them.

Hmm. So I may or may not get so far as a breeder, then.

[Pause. Thinking.]

Well, that's fine. It's not like I have anywhere to go after this, anyway. [Small laugh.] Might as well enjoy my time here.

[small grin]

Nothing wrong with that.

[Nods. Watching the Woopers some more.]

I'm guessing Kay told you about what happened to me, huh?

[he nods, slowly, but surely]

Yeah. She did.
