"Enough!" The older gentleman broke his stance to instead stand straight. "You are not focused... Clearly, you are not ready for training today."

❝Ggh...❞

    Though she initially appears ready to argue the point, she soon adjusts her stance, tightening the tie on her shirt and heaving an oddly dejected sort of sigh. Eyes downcast, she mutters a response.

He leans over, trying to catch his breath, only to be met mere centimeters away from the cold bottle… He reaches out and takes it graciously.

He takes a little sip and straightens up a bit!

“Heh. I like to travel, y'know? I just don’t do it for exercise’s sake. I just happen ta walk and that’s why I’m struggling. You really fit your gym role, don'tcha?”

    THE GYM LEADER allows herself a bottle as well, leaning back against a nearby boulder and pausing to drink a bit of water as she mulls over his words.

❝... That is something I am told often. I can’t refute it, of course; my training is certainly hard enough evidence. These days, I consider it a way to better connect to my pokemon, much like a grass type trainer would tend to a garden or a water type trainer would go for a swim...❞

    She pauses, a small, somewhat nervous smile gracing her features.

"Haahh... Why can you run for so long--!? It's been too long, man..."

    BEA SLOWS TO a stop, allowing her companion a moment to rest. To say she hadn’t broken a sweat would be wrong ( a glance at her is enough to disprove that much ), but she is certainly not nearly as winded as Touya. Silent at first, she reaches into the pack on her back to retrieve a bottle of water that she offers out to him.

like a child loves the rain

you need to be loved in happiness and foolishness. a puppy love, a love so purely good, so full of happiness it makes your stomach ache. you need to be loved in a way that reminds you of the childhood you didn’t get to have. you need to be loved as if you’re feeling the rain fall upon your cheeks for the first time. refreshing, and clean.

He hands her a single Hershey's Kiss! "Yo, it's apparently Kiss day, so boom!"

    OH, ANOTHER? BEA looks down at the candy in her palm as she mulls over what she’d been told... ‘kiss day’, huh? That would certainly explain some things. Her fingers curl carefully around the chocolate, and she shoots Touya a small smile.

A bag of Hershey's Kisses gets tossed at Bea. The mystery gifter/assailant already ran off somewhere, how mysterious.

    BEA HAS ALWAYS been proud enough of her reflexes, so catching the bag before it collides with her is no real challenge. But that being said... her normally steely demeanor makes way for confusion. Kisses? Chocolate?? Was there some sort of event going on that she was unaware of? Or perhaps this was from a fan who’d heard about her secret fondness for sweets...

    AH, THE OFF season; it was a time for training, as she always did. But with the duty of manning the gym left to Allister, that opened the opportunity of more intensive ways of pushing herself... and what could be more of a push than using the free time she had to travel overseas and train on unfamiliar ground? Alola seemed the natural choice at the time of her decision, and it wasn't long after her decision that she touched down on the shores of Ula'ula.

    And it wasn't long on the island before she'd ( despite her attempts to avoid eavesdropping ) overheard talk of the island's kahuna. A real challenge to battle and even more challenging to find, the gym leader quickly found herself with a new goal in mind...

    ...One that would take her the better part of two days to so much as glimpse the man in question ( though, part of that was owed to the fact that she'd thought it inappropriate to ask around to see if anyone knew his whereabouts ). So, here she stands, only slightly tousled and calling out from a short distance away.

‘B E A’

Oh, that sounded PAINFUL….

    OH! BEA TURNS her head to address the other gym leader, a little surprised at the volume he’d managed. Was he worried about her?

As the other lowered their head into a respectful nod, Klara found herself almost panicked for a moment, glancing quickly over her shoulder before turning back to continue her smile at her. Martial artist types are such an odd bunch… Always so earnest that she finds herself nearly struggling to keep up airs.

This sort of etiquette was to be expected, certainly, but the ones who tended to speak to her in this way were her classmates and the younger students, not a high-ranking gym leader.

Still, such an opportunity to rub elbows with a gym leader like herself hardly ever presented itself.

“A-ahaha~ Well… A-as a student of Master Mustard and Ms. Honey, I’ll gladly show you around, lu– Miss Bea. Do you have anything you’d like to leave in a rental-locker here? I wager I know these islands like the back of my hand, I do!”

    KLARA’S ANSWER IS pleasing, and it brings a soft little smile to the gym leader’s face. To finally get a good look at the Isle...! Ah, but first, it would be rude to disregard the one who so kindly ( if not nervously ) agreed to her request.

    Bea’s body language relaxes a tad, and she carefully adjusts the straps of her bag at the sound of Klara’s question. As much as she would like to see the dojo... She has a feeling that she wouldn’t be able to bring herself to leave it in time to see the rest of the island. So, it’s in a brief silence that Bea shakes her head.

Allister watched and listened, moving to seat himself beside her while she spoke.

She seemed so fond of her brother. He wondered what it was like-

But Allister needn’t wonder much, as her following statement brought a warmth to his cheeks that spread across to his ears.

He doesn’t speak to acknowledge it, and merely scoots himself closer to lean into her. He hugged her tightly.

“… It’s…. Okay to.. call you my sister, then…?”

    IT’S A SENTIMENT that, as far as Bea is concerned, is long overdue on her part. But what to do with a lack of opportunities ( and a lack of knowledge on how to bring up the subject in the first place )? She counts herself lucky that the subject was not only presented conveniently, but also received well.

    Very well, by the looks of it. While the contact initially surprises the fighting type gym leader, She finds her expression softening as she moves to embrace Allister in turn.

“I … Believe so..? Maybe once, a long time ago….”

    BEA SMILES SOMEWHAT fondly, sitting sown as she tries to recall what bits she’d have shared before.

❝Well, if so, I’m certain you’re aware of the fact that I get along with him quite well, then. He always had a way of making me feel better at the end of the day. That isn’t to say we never had any spats or anything...but in the end, the little fights didn’t mean much, because you’re still family...❞

    She pauses.
