ONCE AGAIN! We cannot do this alone! Fight, fight, fight!

[battlestandby]

[Paul's in CMA territory again after just recently admitting he needed help what, a day or two ago? But he's notably more distraught this time!]

I-I appreciate everyone's efforts to find Lain...

[It's now apparent that Paul's carrying a baby Drifloon and Manaphy around.]She's been found, but... but now Silver's missing. He had found Lain

[Gold's already there, trying to reason with Ho-Oh and let him know he's sorry but he needs his help again] ...please! Thank you! [Ho-Oh takes off again as Gold starts to climb onto Togekiss--but he sees Paul and quickly runs over to him, slightly out of breath]

X-Xatu told me everything. I sent out my Pokemon already.

[goldchampion]

[He definitely feels that, and places a hand over Paul's arms in a 'there there' sort of gesture as Togekiss scans the area from high up]

Go where you can't feel the others. I see Ho-Oh on the other side of the trees by the volcano. Let's stick to this side... Paul, you alright?

[battlestandby]

Of... of course I'm fine! I'm looking for him!

[While his hands are slipping a bit too low on Gold's waist out of PURE SUBCONSCIOUSNESS.]

[goldchampion]

[...o-oh god STAY FOCUSED GOLD]

Let me know if I'm going too fast alright? [purely innocent innuendo there as Togekiss floats around... then suddenly DIVE BOMBS LOWER to the trees to scan the area]

[battlestandby]

[OH GOD SUDDEN DIVEBOMBING THAT STARTLES HIM. Poor Gold is probably feeling not only badtouched on the front end, but even slightly violated on the back as Paul just glues himself to Gold... and thanks to gravity, that constitutes as a thrust!]

[goldchampion]

[That noise he just made? That was a yelp, and he's just bright red now, Togekiss pays them no mind and flies low over the tops of the trees, while Gold just grips onto Paul's shirtsleeve just staring ahead and trying to calm down THIS IS NOT THE TIME, MIND]

[battlestandby]

[Paul sure ain't looking ahead; he's checking out the sides but his mind is just a little bit preoccupied, increasingly so as he continues to inadvertently stimulate Gold. That yelp was concerning, though.]

A-are you alright...?

[goldchampion]

Y-Your hand.

[battlestandby]

... oh, crap! [He raises those hands back up where they're supposed to be, mister! Not that it solves the issue on the back end, but bawwwww.]

S-sorry.

[goldchampion]

[he's doing his best to deal with that one, and takes a deep breath, which kind of just means he's leaning back against you Paul as he scans the area]

Try to get a little lower, the trees are dense here...

[battlestandby]

[Oh dear the urge to thrust moar is UNBEARABLE. He's panting quietly as he covers whatever areas Gold can't.]

G-good thing he's got red hair... i-inn... most places, like this... h-he'll stand out.

[goldchampion]

[This...this is bad, oh jeez. He can definitely hear Paul's breathing and it's not doing him any good!]

...y-yeah. Left Togekiss. [Togekiss decides to make it a sharp left]

[battlestandby]

[ohshit sharp turns make him squeeze Gold again. Oh dear is something wet. Well, the suppressed groan Paul let out would be indicative of that. Hurhur.]

[goldchampion]

[As soon as Togekiss stops and goes at a normal pace again, he gulps, just closing his eyes a moment to try and act calm as he places a hand on Paul's arm again]

...y-you wanna get off for a bit? Togekiss and I'll wait. [...get off of Togekiss and onto the ground. That is.]

[battlestandby]

Y-... Yes. I think that would be best. Thank you. [He wants THE HELL off now!]

[goldchampion]

[Togekiss lands! You're free Paul! Free! Gold'll be over here doing his SMILE rituals and calming the heck down]
