[ Hey, check this out. It's the inside of Goldenrod Gym! Bet you haven't seen that a thousand times, huh?

A line of text overlays the scene. ]

THIS SHOULD BE GOOD.

[ People familiar with Niou might recognize his Porygon's text, and should definitely recognize the boy himself ambling onto the gym floor. Whitney certainly does. ]

Hey, it's you ( Read more... )

[ He's seen a fair share of Whitney battles over the course of the three weeks he's been here. He's aware now that she breaks out the waterworks like a busted fountain every time she gets beaten; that's not what provokes his unimpressed expression. It's the brutality of the act, the arrogance of it, the younger boy's forced casualness like he's wallowing in his win like a pig in shit. It's possible that he's just projecting because of the physical similarity between them, but it rubs him the wrong way. ]

Pathetic.

[ Niou knows full well it was a poor showing, and it wasn't half as satisfying as he wanted it to be. All the same, he's not ready to give that up so easily to the new kid.

He puts on a mock-pouting face. ]

C'mon, now, you can't be that hard on her. The poor girl was just outleveled.

Outleveled, but not outclassed, I guess. Feel like a big man, now?

[ Seriously Niou, REAL MEN DON'T ENJOY WATCHING GIRLS CRY. ]

Not really, no. Why, is this your idea of machismo?

[ He lets the pout slide into impregnable amusement to shield the defensiveness he's feeling. ]

Hey, I'm not the one who decided to broadcast myself being a dick.

No, your Pokémon broadcast you bein' a dick. At least I'm ownin' it.

[ Oh, snap. Well, he's got not much to say to that one, except-- ]

I had my reasons. That was pointless.

It's kinda cute how you assume you know that. Trust me, tough guy, I had my reasons, too.

[ Starting to sound familiar yet, Nero? ]

What, little girl kicked your ass or something? I'm not even supposed to be the brains of this operation, and even I can tell that was just sad.

[ Yeah, he's put two and two together. If he's bothered at the fact Niou's a dude, he doesn't show it, but he might take exception if Niou busts out the borderline flirting where Kyrie can see. ]

It was a tragic day for all involved, yeah. Now it's over and we can all move on.

[ Dismissive. He's ready to be done with this argument and go back to his regularly scheduled game of long-distance gay chicken. ]
