...that's probably not how things are done around here, N

[centrifuged]

[Hello, Awesome Island! This particular section of the CMA is relatively clear, actually, a good amount of the snow having melted and the runoff leaving the ground springy and damp; it's a bit warmer today than it has been lately, and N has apparently decided that it's about time that he greeted the day properly, a brown satchel made of thick

[ this is the first N's seen of a double of himself - but it's comforting to see he's no different then he himself. N keeps his distance, but wonders if he should offer help as well... he frequently ran out of healing items when he first began his journey. ]

[centrifuged]

[N has met one once before, though he hasn't seen him since their meeting quite some time ago; if anything, he's worried, as that other double of himself...well, he was in pain, and it was obvious. It didn't sit right with N then, and it still doesn't now; regardless, they had each had their own thoughts on what should be done, not to mention their own lives. It would be unfair for him to dictate what his double should do, not to mention that it stood to reason that his double would already know what he was going to say. You know, being him and all.

He sits back on his heels once he's sent the Roselia on its way; it's rather confused and not very happy with him, but he tried...he reaches up to brush some of the stray strands of his bangs out of the way, they're getting rather close to poking his eye and - ]

Ah.

[He gets to his feet, adjusting that satchel over his shoulder before approaching; his approach is shameless, without any sort of anxiousness or trepidation, though the smile is subdued somewhat - he's still not entirely

[theirvoice]

[ Zorro...a name he isn't familiar with. or perhaps that was the name of the zoroark that he had met come his arrival here? there is a long moment of thought as he considers every available possibility... before he shakes his head. ]

If you are referring to the zoroark capable of human speech, then I've been told he no longer has his trainer here on the island with him.

[ he hesitates a moment. ] ...my own zoroark is in it's pokeball.

[...!]

I didn't realize - another one, then. I'll have to request information from Zorro if I see him again...

[centrifuged]

[But he can acknowledge that now isn't the time for that - there's this person in front of him to figure out. Either way, N doesn't seem too fazed; he tends to find doubles more fascinating than unnerving or odd, and the smile he's offering, along with the look in his eyes is almost childlike in its pleasure.]

This place is full of paradoxes like this, I find; it's all very interesting. How long have you been here?

[theirvoice]

[ he reminds him of better, more innocent days. before he found out what he was doing was...was wrong. he still hasn't gotten over it, despite his time here. ]

It has been nearly a month now - twenty-six days. And yourself?

[centrifuged]

[N has heard his double speak of things that had gone badly in Unova, though he has yet to experience them firsthand. For the time being, he is important: he is Team Plasma's King, destined to be the Hero of legend. He will befriend Reshiram. He will end suffering. And he loves and trusts Father more than anyone else in the world.

For now, he has no idea.]

A little over two months, I believe, though it's difficult to say - the seasons are different here, as I'm sure you've noticed by now.

[theirvoice]

[ N is at a loss of what to do - he wants desperately to try and steer his 'younger' self in the right direction. however he's still confused on his own actions, due to how abruptly he was taken away from his own world, immediately after the complete rejection of his father. ]

They are longer... it is hard to grow accustomed to.

[centrifuged]

Yes, of course - as much as I enjoy the snow, I find myself thinking that spring should have been here long ago. It's a bit disorienting.

[...ah! But if you have Zoroark with you, you've returned to the castle - he kind of has to know now, forgive him.]

Is Baibanira with you? I'm certain he would love the extended winter...!

[theirvoice]

Yes- [ he finally smiles, a hand going to the pokeball at his waist, memorized. he gazes fondly at the ball, watching baibanira sway happily. he looks around, remembering that in some instances it was alright to leave your pokemon out for long instances of time. so out comes the ice cream cone. ]

[centrifuged]

[Baibanira! It has been so long since N has seen you! He doesn't say anything, knowing that doubles might be a bit off-putting, but just the same, he is so pleased - he's definitely smiling, even if the sight of one of his oldest friends is enough to cause his eyes to start brimming for a reason he doesn't exactly understand. Happytears, he'll assume for the time being, but still.

Just. Eeeeee.]

[theirvoice]

[ baibanira's originally quite confused, but a tamer smile from 'his' N is shown, it soothes his worry. my two N's. ]

Have...have you and baibanira been parted?

[centrifuged]

[N has never been one to hide his emotions; arguably, he doesn't even know how, given that he's never really had any reason to find his emotions to be shameful. Just the same, he gets himself back into check, at the very least, though he's still kind of...all over the place and his voice is wavering a little.]

For now - just until I can return to Unova, I think...they say that you can never leave, but I don't believe that. It's too cruel.
