[Action/Quad] Toys for... well, most everyone he knows!

[heartcorrupt]

[Those out in the Quad today are almost guaranteed to notice the gigantic black wolf running crazily around, in pursuit of -- what else? -- a red, bouncing rubber ball. While it occasionally gets out of his grasp, he always eventually snatches it, quickly rushing back to one of the taller trees where Tobias is settled. Breaker drops the ball into

Comments

[turnip_rage]

[Oh, great. That big black thing's out and about. Espio's half-tempted to turn around and investigate the library instead, but... meh. It's nicer out here. He watches the beast suspiciously as he moves over to his roommate, just overhearing his comment.]

Back where? Did you get to visit your home, too?

[Not that Espio's visited his own - he just knows that some people have.]

[heartcorrupt]

[Oh, hi there.]

Yeah. I did.

[turnip_rage]

[From the small glimpse Espio's seen of Toby's world, though, he automatically assumes 'bad'.]

Are you okay?

[heartcorrupt]

[Thankfully, Tobias figures out what he's thinking, tossing the ball again.]

Oh, I'm fine. It wasn't a bad visit or anything. It was... during a festival I shared with my friends, and I got to see all of them again. It's... made me really homesick.

[gyrocopter]

[what the

hi doggie

just... hi.]

Eh? Where'd you come from?

[heartcorrupt]

[Breaker gives him a puzzled look, then runs back off to Tobias.]

He's my friend.

[gyrocopter]

Huh-... oh, kid! Hey.

[Goose walks over and kneels straight for Breaker. He admittedly loves animals.]

Just wondering if this li'l guy was a stray or something. He's friendly, right? [He say as his hand slowly reaches out. Petting get?]

[heartcorrupt]

Sometimes. He doesn't have any problem with you, though, so just be gentle.

[Breaker gives Goose a curious look, but allows the other to pet him.]

Did you take anything home from the festival?

[notdusk]

[Dawn's eyes widen and she almost immediately sprints over. Have an excitable pokemon trainer.]

E-Excuse me, sir, but is that.. a pokemon?

[heartcorrupt]

Yeah.

[Annnnd this will be Tobias staring because holy shit you look exactly like one of his friends. But he's been here long enough to know how weird things are, and calling him sir....]

We... haven't met, right?

[notdusk]

Ah, well then. [Dawn reaches into her bag and pulls out a pokeball, swiftly releasing the pokemon inside - a luxray.] Seems that we have something in common, then.

Excuse me? .. Um, no sir, I don't believe we have. Unless the name 'Dawn' rings some bells.

[heartcorrupt]

No, it doesn't. Sorry, I was checking.

[Breaker quirks a look at the Luxray.]

I'm Tobias. It's nice to meet you.

[notaferry]

[Well, now, that was certainly a creature Botan had not yet seen before. Pausing in her steps, she changed her route and walked towards where the Mightyena had stopped, glancing upwards. It was then she heard his words.]

...are you alright, dear?

[heartcorrupt]

Oh, yeah. I'm fine, thanks.

[Huh. This was someone Tobias hadn't seen either, and he smiles a bit.]

[notaferry]

If you're certain... [Botan gently smiles back.] That's quite the friend you have there. Does he have a name?

[heartcorrupt]

His name's Breaker. If you're gentle, you can pet him.

[fierybluebird]

Hey, cute plushies kiddo.

What? [In response to the not going back.] Why not?

[heartcorrupt]

I really miss home now.

[And the Moltres plushie is handed off to Marco!]

This is for you.

[fierybluebird]

Hey thanks! [One armed hug!]

Ah... me too. I got to see my brothers. I'm happy... but I miss them even more now. Go figure, eh?

[heartcorrupt]

Yeah. [Sad smile, but he snuggles into Marco.]

I thought you'd like it. You kind of look a little like Moltres.
