[One of Violet City's main attractions is the Gym, and that's where the feed turns on now. Lightning is standing on one end of the field with Falkner on the other, facing his Noctowl down with Odin the Rapidash. The camera is being held at such an angle that Serah, Hope, and Leon can be seen in the stands on either side, along with Strike sitting

[ Though... ]
I did have my doubts when you released Fang.
[ He'll admit that much. ]

I can understand that. But give her a target and she doesn't see anything else until it's over. [Almost like Lightning herself, really.]

Still, that's no help if she won't obey. [ Because let's face it, that display wasn't particularly impressive--besides which, ignoring her trainer's strategies could land her in trouble, since Fang is obviously not the 'thinks well under pressure' type. ]

She's better then when we started, anyway.

[ He's not saying that to humor her, either. He was there when she caught the darn thing, after all, he knows what a pain in the ass Fang can be. ]
Headed to the pokemon center?

What are you implying?

Oh, come on. I wouldn't--it's not like--

[Just...shutting up now. Thank goodness for the Pokémon Center being right
there. Lightning ducks her head as she goes inside, turning Odin and Fang over to the nurse and then taking a seat. She'll be ruffling Sen's ears now.]

Hello, pokemon center. He just lets Strike keep Sen company for a bit as he waits for Lightning to finish up. When she settles next to him on the bench he pauses, searching for something to say that isn't some butthurt variant of 'then why did you give me that crap in the first place?'

Awkwardness commencing! Sen does not like Awkwardness. He'll be looking between Light and Leon in confusion as she ruffles his ears, then over at Strike. Why are trainers being weird? It's making his fur itch.]
Leon, just....forget I said anything. I'm still not used to...[Making sense when speaking out of a military environment? Not completely messing up in nice conversations? Not making an ass out of herself with an actual friend? All of the above? Among other things, yeah.]
I'm still not used to a man asking me where I'm going when he doesn't want something from me. [And thunk goes her head against the wall. Yep. She's an idiot in social situations. Sen'll just be staring at you now, Leon.]
