so it is, a date ( in both senses of the word ) that has been looming in the corners of satoshi's mind for weeks now, still weeks away as it is. naturally, he's been doing this utmost to come up with the best itinerary ever, hoping in equal measure to balance out the mess that got them this far to begin & to give his girlfriend the day she dang well deserves.

still, he cannot help but rather tease than answer in earnest. ❛ ēe, is that a fact... ?? ❜ it's always a competition with this one ... & satoshi would be one hell of a hypocrite to say he's not much the same, & a liar to deny that it's one of his favorite things about her.

❛ aw, sorry, man, i can't fight you anymore, my girlfriend gets real mad if i get into fights with other people ... ❜

ㅤ ... the energy coming from this one is like bracing a storm. it would be fair to say her targeted energy is felt just where she intends it to go⸻ such marvelous things intention can do.

❛ you are really tough. ❜ one of the toughest people he's ever battled, that's for sure, & he's battled a whooole lot of people. but his expression does turn sly then, nose stuck up & hands on his hips.

Nemona keeps reading the message over and over again, as if the words would suddenly shift upon the next read-through, like in a dream.

"This is it... We've got a match in Mesagoza tonight! No, maybe even THE match!!"

Had she been hoping for an invitation like this ever since she had heard of Young Blood? Yeah, maybe.

"AAA!!! I can't wait!" The hours leading up to the event took forever, at least to her. Despite her strategizing, training and team building, that is. In the end she'd settled on a team, and made her way to the center of Mesagoza. In the middle of the plaza she'd wait, head whipping around at any and all noise that could be her opponent.

"Woah."

He's entranced, and whenever the spinning toy stops he motions for her to do it again.

"HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE--" His treehouse hideout in the meadows is hidden by a magic barrier... But this is Willow they're talking about so. Should've seen this coming.
