[/i]God, she's beautiful when she smiles, if we weren't about to embark on this stupid quest I'd . . . . probably still wouldn't have the gut to tell her how I feel. By Arceus, why is it so hard to say 3 simple words. Simple Reggie, beause you're fucking incompe-WHOTHEFUCKISTHIS!!!!!!!![/i] Reggie's thoughts were interrupted by the appearance of Jericho, or more importantly, Apalacia's reaction to seeing Jericho. While on the outside he seemed completely unperturbed, on the inside he was cursing himself for not confessing sooner and this random guy who seemed to be someone she heldna great deal of affection towards. After a few moments of internal panic, he simply sighed before standing up, scratching the back of his head as he approached. "Hey Apalacia, who seems to be your friend here?" Reggie reached out towards the guy with his other hand. Whether he was Apalacis boyfriend(good god that just hurt thinking about it) "Well, Nice to meet you, man, name's Reginald, but please just call me Reggie. So, since I think everyone's here, where do you guys think we should go first?" As Reggie was speaking to the two, a noise could be heard coming from the fountain. When looking back, it seemed that Reign was now trying to get Axia to serve him, only for the dragon-type pokemon to suddenly started chasing him around the fountain in a blind rage. "You know what, hold that thought, I've got to make sure Axia doesn't make Reign in to a Kalosian éntree." And with that, Reggie ran back to the fountain to try and calm Axia down. A few minutes and a lot of painful nips later, Reggie would return with the dragon pokemon struggling in his arms and a face devoid of any amusement. "You know, my mommalways said raising pokemon was like raising children, but more dangerous. I think I'm starting to see why, especially when these to don't get along. And Axia, be reasonable and stop growling at Apalacia." Axia, who has been growling at the green-haired trainer as soonnas she had been brought over, ceased the threstening noise with obvious reluctance. She was still giving an supposedly intimidating stare, but given the current look of Axia, it was nothing short of adorable. "I don't know what'll get to me first, those northern assfuckers or these guys, just that both will be giving me enough stress ver the course of this adventure to turn my hair completely fucking white within the year. Anyway, what gym do you guys think we should hit up first, I was thinking the ground-type one in Appalata, since it's closer and there is a decent amount of land between there and here for us to catch new pokemon."
