[Yes, she is still in Blackthorn. Yes, it's been gods know how long. But she's here with a purpose, and boy does she have a one-track mind. The video flickers on, showing the grand and majestic gates of the Blackthorn City gym. Fransizka looks pleased, standing before it with her crop in hand and at ready.]Good day, Johto. It has been some time

[While he's mostly tuning the entirety of the girls prattling going on, he does come to attention about 'battles becoming things of legend'. Snorting quietly though, he winds up smirking on his end.

An idea just came to mind and it's about time he moved on.]

Aiming to become the Champion?

[audio]

[recrimination]

Of course. However, I would like to point out that the language here should not be 'aiming to become', but rather 'going to be come'. My place in the championship is a certainty.

[... Now, now, he is going to laugh a bit.]

Then I guess I'll be waiting for you at the top, considering you need eight of those badges. [And I already have two.]

[audio]

[recrimination]

Oh? Do you mean to imply that you are one of the top contenders for the championship?

[audio + video]

[subvertio]

Do I really need to spell it out? [Flipping the feed on, it's only going to show the two badges he has so far between his fingers; Plain and Fog.]

[her eyes narrow]

Two badges -- and not of the usual Violet and Azalea fools. Of course, I am not entirely impressed, but it is certainly a cut above the usual ilk.

[Snorts.] I didn't waste my time with them, I had more important matters to take care of. Unfortunately, the only downside is that I have to backtrack.

I'm not worried about the battles themselves though.

[recrimination]

Your confidence speaks well for yourself. However, do you have the power to back it up?

[video]

[subvertio]

I wouldn't be running my mouth if I didn't.

[video]

[recrimination]

Is that so. State your name and your present location.

[video] >_>;; ignore that..

[subvertio]

Vanitas. Ecruteak.

[video] <3 saw nothin'

[recrimination]

Hm. And I suppose it bears asking where your next destination will be.

[video] <3

[subvertio]

I may as well begin backtracking before I get too far from the weaker gyms.

[video]

[recrimination]

I see. Perhaps we will meet on the lower circuits, then. I will expect for you to hold good on your claims of power.

[video]

[subvertio]

Of course. There won't be any problems holding up to that.

[video]

[recrimination]

We shall see. In the meantime, I will expect for you to be training diligently. After all, I have just now declared you as my worthy rival, and there are certain standards that must be upheld.
