Reggie, to his credit, held in his internal breakdown rather well, given the circumstances. After seeing this random guy kiss Apalacia and hold her in a rather familiar fashion, he was actually able to keep his cool very well, the only sign of the amount of cursing that was spouting out from his mind was a slight twitch of his left eyebrow. [i]Well, that was a stab in the heart if I've ever felt one. Man, I really want to not like this guy, but that would be petty of me. Who knows, he mighht be a col guy and they could become the best of friends on this quest.[/i] That was him trying to make the best out of what could only be a heartbreakingly depressing situation, but his self-loathing and denial was soon forgotten were soon forgotten when the other guy spoke to him, the emphasis he put on the word 'my' not being lost on him. [i]Oh, so he's one of those super territorial Alpha-dog types who feel they have to be in charge of everything. Hmph, I take back what I thought earlier, I'm almost sure that we're not going to get along if he keeps up this posturing bit the whole trip.[/i]

If Reggie disliked any kind of person, it's those who feel an incessant need to be in charge. Reggie wasn't going to call him on his shit, nor was he going to make any snark comments. He would just set back and watch the guy, chose his moment before he decided to push him off his pedestal. Did he want to lead the group, not really, but he wasn't about to follow this asshole blindly  just because he tried to flex his muscles a bit. He simply offered a non-committal shrug to the guy's comment, and walked away from the two, setting Axia back by the fountain, and giving her a strict order not to get into another fight with Reign. He did the same with the Froakie as well, but Reign didn't even seem to acknowledge he was their, something that drew a rather peeved look onto Reggie's face, but he decided he'd deal with the snobby frog prince later. Looking around the place, his eyes quickly fell on carry, and his face quickly broke into a wide grin as he walked over, locking the younger boy in a headlock from behind and giing him a playful noggie as his own form of greeting.

"Hey, Golden Boy, whose your new friend here? I hope you mean to introduce me to him, cause I think I've forgotten my own name at the moment." Reggie chuckled a little more before releasing Barry, taking a second to look at his two pokemon. "Oh, you got a dragon pokemon too, uh, well, we've got a tough road ahead of us now. Dragon types take forever to evolve."
