[It's well into the evening when Lightning returns to the PokéCenter. She'd gone around slowly, but efficiently. She at least feels marginally better now, what with the vague sense of familiarity. No, she's not entirely happy -- fortunately, though, she's not entirely unhappy either.
Stepping into the building, she looks for signs of Snow.]
[He's... actually asleep draped over one of the couches. Even if Light would've let sleeping Snows lie, though, Snow had let Machop out before he crashed, and the pokemon (upon spotting Lightning) decided to be helpful and give Snow a casual shove.
The hero jerked awake and up on an elbow, his other palm pressing and rubbing against his eye in a just-woke-up sort of fashion, as he establishes what's going on.
Then he notices who's back. Sounding impressively awake:]
[Impressively awake indeed. She has to wonder if the couches are even comfortable to begin with, though Snow should be able to sleep about anywhere after their journey. No matter.
And he said "sis" again. Considering how that's . . . very true by this point, if only a little premature, all she does is shoot him a look.]
Heh, figured as much. We weren't the first ones here... Anything you would've found is long gone by now. [He'll be laying back down on his back, though his eyes are still open.]
[A shrug.] Hey, it's not like we're gonna get out of here by being the weak ones, right?
[He glances over at her now to see her reaction, and notices how she's standing. He'll be raising his head off the couch now, squinting a little at her.] You hurt yourself?
Hey, c'mon now. I'm sorry, okay? It must've been the angle. [He lays his head back down on the couch now, closing his eyes. At least he'd been trying to make sure she was alright... That's not a terrible thing to do, is it?]

No. [Just a little tired, maybe. Mentally. Not a big deal.]
