The young cashier at the Poke Mart gave him a skeptical glance, but nothing more. She had given him his change, her eyes fixated on his thick-rimmed glasses as she slipped the coins into his hands. He gave her a quick smile before pulling his plastic bag off the countertop and walked away. Once away from the woman's suspicious eyesight, he rolled his eyes and walked past the automatic glass doors of the supermarket.
"Honestly," he sighed to himself as he pushed his glasses up. "I hate having to travel all the way to Violet City for my tea packets..."
And better yet, he hated having to be approached as Ecruteak's Gym Leader whenever he went to Violet City. The Pokemon schoolgirls there were...pretty crazy.
He had tried and tried to convince his local stores to try and convince the tea company to ship to them, but to no avail. Morty felt that his store's manager didn't even bother to call up the company in the first place. But then again, he wasn't always in control of things, was he?
As he was engrossed in his thoughts, Morty hadn't looked twice and had found himself colliding into a shorter figure -- a figure whose dark blue hair could be recognizable anywhere. Before mouthing out an automatic apology, the blonde stopped himself and merely grinned.
"Oh well what do you we have here~? If it isn't the honorable little Falkner I've bumped into." He slung his grocery bag onto his left arm so that he could extend his right arm for a quick shake. "It's been awhile."
