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

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

[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 his lap, giving a growled wolf as Tobias flings it as hard as he can in another direction, starting the chase all over again.

The boy himself seems thoughtful, turning one of his throwing knives over and over in his hand idly as he sighs deeply. By his side are a bunch of stuffed dolls he took from his temporary visit home -- a fire bird, some sort of ghost, an odd dragon-serpent, and plenty of others, all poking out of a bag.]

...I almost wish I hadn't gone back at all.

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

[]

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

[Oh, hi there.]

Yeah. I did.

[turnip-rage.livejournal.com]

[]

Are you okay?

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

[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.

[turnip-rage.livejournal.com]

Really? You got something fun?

[]

Good for you! Even if it does make you homesick, you got to see your friends and relax, right?

[what the

hi doggie

just... hi.]

Eh? Where'd you come from?

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

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

He's my friend.

[gyrocopter.livejournal.com]

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.livejournal.com]

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?

[gyrocopter.livejournal.com]

I got this thing. I dunno what it is. I think it's some kinda fish.

[It's a little Milotic Pokedoll!]

That's as far as I know, though. [Don't worry, Breaker. Goose is gentle. Well, at least with animals.]

[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.livejournal.com]

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.livejournal.com]

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.livejournal.com]

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

[Breaker quirks a look at the Luxray.]

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

[notdusk.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, then. [she gives a slight frown.]

It's great to meet you, too, Tobias. My name is, as you know already, Dawn. I've just arrived here.

[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.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah. I'm fine, thanks.

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

[notaferry.livejournal.com]

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

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

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

[notaferry.livejournal.com]

Breaker, hmm? That's a lovely name. [She pets Breaker quite gently, finding just the right spots.] I've never seen another one quite like him before. Is he from your world?

[fierybluebird]

Hey, cute plushies kiddo.

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

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

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.livejournal.com]

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

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

[fierybluebird]

You think so? [Pets it just to see.] Fire bird, huh? [Grins.] Does it have rebirth legends too?
