hurricane season [o]

[ROSA]

Unova screamed, people fought, people died, and something just felt really off about the entire thing. Neither side was right, but they weren't wrong either. They held their own beliefs, Rosa supposed. Were they worth dying for? She didn't think so.  "Wait," she tapped her scolipede;s neck, making the thing stop. Rosa wasn't a fan of flying, attempting to stay balanced on a bird probably too small to carry her wasn't really something that tickled her fancy. Rosa, instead, rode on the back of her scolipede. They had entered Nimbasa City, and she hopped off her pokemon, and started to walk. It was probably as amazing as she remembered. She had an acting gig here, and despite coming to Nimbasa City many times before, she never ceased to act like a tourist. Her head was held up high, looking at everything that the city had to offer, and her mouth opened a bit in awe.  She was only brought out of her daze when she jumped into someone, nearly knocking them and herself over. "Ah! I'm so sorry! Oh my god I didn't mean- are you alright?! @open

flying into strangers is the best way to make friends

propaganda is everywhere, if one knows to look for it; but zemina is not even trying to be subtle in its machinations with nimbasa. alcoves of entertainment are studded throughout the entire city, both large and small companies and corporations flashing signs that welcome one and all. william walks without looking at any of it, landon by his side instead of anne's usual quiet presence. the gardevoir has asked for time in investigating something in the city, and william had let her go with charmaine and a reminder to look after each other. the jolteon follows closely at his heels, eyes taking in their surroundings and playing the act of a guard. it means nothing when someone crashes into william, nearly knocking both of them to the ground. the jolteon jumps to get out of the way, and his trainer is left to stumble and straighten himself before reassuring the woman. "i'm good, i'm good," he says, and waves a placating hand. "i'm alright, but thank you." then he actually notices who it is, and the scolipede beside her. still, he doesn't move or make a remark about it -- an actress that even a vagabond doctor knows wouldn't probably appreciate it if he were to comment, anyway. and his doctor instincts are chafing at him again, to make sure that everyone else involved is alright. "are you alright? nothing injured or anything?" ROSA

"I'm glad you're alright." It would have been terrible if he had been injured, and it probably would have been even worse if he had made a big deal about it. His concern about her well being, made her oddly... happy, was really the only way to put it. Rosa blushed slightly, smiled, and shook her head. "I'n fine, thank you for asking." Rosa took a second to glance over the man, making sure that she really hadn't hurt him. The whole situation actually embarrassed her. Ome moved a little closer to her, he kept an eye on her, probably to make sure she doesn't make a fool of herself once again. She stuck out her hand. "I'm Rosa, and this," she pointed to the bug-type with her other, "is Ome. I'm not normally this spacie!" Ome pushed her with his head, obviously he didn't agree with what she said. Now she lost her balance.  william ooc: holy crap i just reread that first post, it was so bad. i'm sorry! ;w;

he could swear that landon is laughing at him, and william gives the jolteon a glare before smiling back. it's... nice, to see people who are still capable of basic pleasantries, even in the middle of a war. it's heartening, and welcome. (a far cry from most other people these days.) though he is startled, to his credit william only stares at the offered hand for a moment before he takes it and shakes it, giving rosa an exasperated smile. "i'm william," he says, and fights down a smile at her ome's reaction. he hasn't completely let go of her hand by the time that the scolipede causes her to lose her balance, and william awkwardly tries to steady her and help her up before she can fall. "i'm guessing that your ome doesn't agree with you?" he's chuckling, which is rare in and of itself for him, and william ignores landon's slightly panicked look as he tries to help rosa back up. ROSA not the best post gomen ;-;
