Kindle’s reaction was way too cute. Leon had to smile and chuckle in response. “I’m happy to hear that, Kindle! Say, how would you both like to show me what you’ve learned. Fancy having a go at battling me and Ham?” Leon’s smile changes to a more confident one as he stands up straight to perform his old charizard pose, flipping his hand up into the air. His charizard instinctively steps up to pose with him, roaring in agreement. After doing this he laughs and stands normally again, hands on his hips. 

Leon just about chokes on his cola. “The internet says WHAT?!” The shock of hearing this makes his face go SO red SO fast. Feeling embarrassed, he covers his face with a hand dramatically. “That’s unfair-- I mean untrue! We have never even ONCE been on a d-d-d....” He pauses, closes his eyes and clears his throat before finally getting it out, a stern look on his face. “...a DATE!!”

When you look and perform like a swole jock meathead DITZ but are actually really book smart / a huge awkward nerd u might be Leon.

The smile on Leon’s face becomes wider and more genuine once he sees her looking up at him. In her eyes he can still see that she is indeed the same Pokémon gifted to Victor. “You’re right, she’s much stronger now! Growing perfectly, I might add. I’d expect nothing less.” The young chairman bends down and offers his hand out to the small Charmeleon. “Kindle! Do you perhaps remember me?” His Charizard seems intrigued by the other simply because it is of the same species and leans in a bit closer, eyes looking surprised to see her come from the ball. Something seems... familiar. Hamburger gives a soft snort, worried Leon had been having Victor training another Charmander in secret!!! Was his position as Leon’s best friend in danger?! Surely not... but he can’t help but be a bit jealous and it shows!! That is, until Leon smiles back at him with a smile. “And you, Ham. Do you recognize her?” The question shocks the lizard who steps back a bit, looking from Leon to Victor to Kindle and back around a few times blinking to show his confusion. Ham then decides to squint at the Charmeleon.

Of course, this is a bit scary for the ex-champion as well. Knowing Hop saw him as a hero kept him playing the part, not wanting to show any signs of weakness physically or even emotionally. “A reason to keep going... that isn’t for other people but for myself.” He sighs but the hand squeeze makes him huff out a small laugh and crack a small tired smile. “It’s been such a long time since I had the power to make any decisions about my future and all I do is default back into battling... into being that hero everyone says they see in me.” He looks at his brother for the first time since this conversation started with sad, tired eyes. “Did I make the right decisions? I don’t know. Is the Battle Tower even a good idea?” A long pause happens before he breaks eye contact and looks away, hiding his face in his free hand. “...Or is it just the only thing I know how to do?”

It sure did and it also caught Leon completely off guard. He is now staring with wide golden eyes at his black, white, and pink companion. “Uhhh!” He says before laughing and scratching the back of his head awkwardly. “I am naturally pretty warm... like Charizard!” Changing the subject to his partner was always a safe fallback. 

    Odds are, she’s very likely to lose him since he tends to run off but at least he doesn’t run the risk of freezing to death since he has Charizard with him at all times. Both of them are dressed in matching cold weather outfits, scarves and all. Hamburger even has a cute little toboggan on over his horns.    Leon really shouldn’t be here as he’s strapped for time as is but how was he going to say no to Sonia? The young chairman’s excitement certainly had nothing to do with the possibility of seeing any one of these legendary Pokémon Sonia believed to be out here hiding in the cold, nooo. Don’t be silly!    “Yeah we should stop in and say hello, I think! I’ve never been here before so I’d like to meet some of the people, see what they know... you know?” Leon smiles and heads off in a slightly different direction from the way she’s pointed him. Don’t worry, Charizard is used to nudging him the right way to which he responds. “Just looking over there, I wasn’t running off!”
