Jaden looked up at Vix as she knelt down next to him, her gentle words and touch helping to soothe his emotions, taking his mind off of what happened as he now struggle with a whole new set of emotions. As it was though, he interlocked his pinkie with hers, looking her in the eyes with a soft smile of his own.

[color=Ivory]"I wouldn't have it any other way Vix, and . . . thanks. I'm glad I got such a nice partner to travel with."[/color] As he spoke, the somber tone would fade as he was quick to rebound from his earlier embarrassment, a fire coming to light with his cerulean eyes as he suddenly jumped to his feet, striking a poses as he pointed down Route One. [color=Ivory]Now then, there's little time to dwell on feeling sorry for myself. We've got a journey to embark on, Pokemon to meet, and trainers to fight, so let's get a move on shall we?"

Turni g his attention back towards Vix, he reached his hand down to help her up, muttering a short 'M'lady' in partial jest, his youthful energy and exuberance having returned to him on full bloom. However, before he barrelled down the Route at full steam ahead, he then had a thought enter his head. He looked between Vix, then his bag, then the tall grass beford him, his mind suddenly grasping on a problem.

[color=Ivory]"It comes to mind that a Kimono is not the best travelling outfit, but I also didn't see much in the way of a clothing store out here so . . . wanna try and walk it till we get to Viridian or hitch aride on my back? Don't worry, I'm stronger than I look, so I'm sure I could carry you with no trouble at all."[/color]
