ACTION

[kaidont]

[You know who's, for once, not found outside Union? This guy.

Partly because of the people camping outside. The city officials might be all chummy with them, but he almost got trampled by a rampaging Nidoking because of them, and he doesn't feel like talking to them nicely. Or handing them any piece of technology, for that matter.

He knows himself well enough to know he'll just start fights if he tries interacting with them, so he's keeping himself inside the walls for now. It's probably best after this mindless training anyway.

The other reason is currently resting against his legs. His egg finally hatched, revealing a Trapinch... which is cool and all, except it keeps kind of falling forward with the weight of its own head if it's standing on the ground... and he can't keep it burried all the time. Especially when you live in a tower.

So his baby Trapinch is slowly following after him, bumping its head against his legs whenever they stop. He would have lost his patience long ago, had his newly evolved Floette not been calming him down.

Be careful not to fall into any holes. Thankfully, they shouldn't be too deep]

Yeah speaking of that how come you get all the cool powers and all I get is "hit hard"?

[at_too_low]

[Grin~]

I thought you liked hitting hard, though?

[kaidont]

Yeah but hitting hard's not gonna help me much if I'm paralysed.

[at_too_low]

Hmm... Well, I could probably help you train to break out of that on your own. Besides, I need to practice my paralysing attack somehow, and it's hard to do when you have no real target.

[kaidont]

... this is going to involve a lot of sore muscles, isn't it?

[Note that he hasn't said no]

[at_too_low]

Yes, but don't you get that after your normal workouts, too?

[kaidont]

There's sore and sore. And your enthusiasm is worrying me.

[at_too_low]

We can do it after your normal training, then, and besides, it's a good way to measure your limits and recovery time! You have to agree that's important.

[kaidont]

[Eyeroll, and he pulls down on your hat a bit. It's kind of fond, well, for Kaido anyway]

You're too invested in finding out my limits.

[at_too_low]

[Hey, don't touch the hat]

You should be the one invested in finding them out, though. I'm just helping you along.

[kaidont]

I'm more invested in pushing them.

[at_too_low]

Yeah, but too much pushing and there will be no going back. That's why you have to know what your limits are in the first place.

[kaidont]

[Heh... a side smile slides on his face]

[at_too_low]

[He's a little puzzled by that, but it's nice to see you seem to be approving of it. You get a smile in return and a pat to your shoulder]

Soooo, I'll be helping you out with that!

[kaidont]

Yes, mother.

[at_too_low]

[Sorry Kaido you get a grin in return]

So you finally recognize my authority?

[kaidont]

... okay that's it, you really have a Thing.

[at_too_low]

What thing?

[Confuse???]

[kaidont]

"It's always the cute ones," huh.

For the record, I'm not calling you "Sir."

[at_too_low]

[... He's not sure what's happening but he can see you're trolling him somehow.]

W-Well, I never told you to anyway.

[kaidont]

I should've known earlier today~

[He's clearly overdramatic with his voice]

[at_too_low]

Alright, what is this about?

[kaidont]

[--oh god you still don't get it. Alright, let him control his giggles chuckle and grin at you]

I think someone likes being in control. [grin] Don't worry, your secret's safe with me!

[at_too_low]

Wh-- N-No I don't! Why should it even be a se-- I mean, there's no secret!

[WHAT THE HELL KAIDO YOU ARE AN IDIOT]

[kaidont]

Hey, it's okay, there's nothing wrong with it!

You'd totally be cute doing it anyway. [Yep his mind went there. Oops]
