I'll Get Strong [For You]

Ah, Kuroni was so cheerful— Touya had to pull himself together not to let the tiredness mirror in his eyes. It wouldn’t be right of him to worry the younger boy when the brunet came all the way to see him, even bringing cake along. Besides, it had nothing to do with Kuroni anyway. Absentmindedly licking his lips, the knight smiled a little wider, chuckling under his breath before he reached out to ruffle his kitten’s hair.

The younger couldn't help but give a cheerful smile when the knight reached out to pet his head, giggling quietly under his breath as he nuzzled into the hand before hugging the taller male happily and humming into the warm feeling he had that radiated off Touya's person. He enjoyed seeing Touya the most nowadays, and to come home from a journey and share cake and talk to him was like the best idea in the world to him considering that he was someone he enjoyed being in the presence of.

The knock was expected, yet the knight found himself hesitating more than he liked to admit. But the concerned stares coming from the Pokémon lazying around the cabin were enough to get him moving.

The trainer stood in front of the door with a pleasant smile on his face, not at all minding the time it took for the familiar person he had come to visit to answer the door. An even more cheerful smile tugged at his features when Touya answered the door, hopping in place a little with cake in hand.

"Aah, I see." His head tilted to the side - man, was this alternate of his a pushover? Maybe, if he was bullied. "Well, why don’t you teach them a lesson? You can control them if you want, you know?"

Caramel hues blinked quickly and widely in confusion at the words his alternate spoke, more than surprised at his words. What in the heck was this guy saying... He really had to be some sort of opposite to say to do something so mean... Granted Kuroni tried to think he wasn't the same sweet boy he used to be and had grown up just a tiny bit, doing that sort of thing wasn't something he felt like he could do.

 Kicking the soft sand under her, Hikari bit her lip. When she looked at the other, he seemed almost happy to see it. Well at least she was returning it. She wasn’t all that bad of a girl. It almost made her feel as good returning it as it did stealing it. But the guilt poked at her lightly.

What... This nice looking girl had been the one to take his surfboard away from him while he had went to go get some water? Granted this wouldn't of been a problem if he hadn't forgotten to bring some since it was a problem to do sports without anything to hydrate yourself... But clearly you couldn't judge a book by its cover. She looked nice, but apparently she wasn't if she took something so important!!

She had no use for the surfboard, but it did look nice. So of course she’d whistle innocently while she dragged the board away. Nothing to see her right? It was abandoned anyway. That is.. it was until the owner came back. For shame Hikari.

Perking up a bit at the voice that spoke to him, eyes couldn't help but widen at the girl that came back with his surfboard in hand, instantly reaching out to accept it from her happily. Ah, his surfboard was okay...! Thank Arceus, it was important to him! He had been surfing with it since he used to live here when he was younger.

He’s shorter than him, and looks younger, but otherwise, there’s no denying that this kid is an alternate. It’s entertaining, somewhat - he’s encountered other’s alternates, but never one of his own. One that acts very different, too.

The voice that spoke up to him made him twitch a little from where he stood in the sand of Undella town, turning to face the stranger-- deadpanning a little at the realization he had been greeted by an alternate. Well... That wasn't expected.
