Send “I got you” to have your muse save mine from a fall.
“Wh-”
Rebecca had fallen from one of her Berry trees after she had climbed up to get one last berry off the top. She had found herself in the arms of someone she had never seen before, blinking in bewilderment.
Send “I got you” to have your muse save mine from a fall.
“S-Sorry, Green. I lost my balance for a bit there…”
One of her chronic problems since the incident with the Hyper Beam had been loss of balance when she had her headphones off. She hated when she lost her balance, when she looked fragile. She wasn’t.
He had spent a large chunk of time simply standing there and watching the other as they worked, the scent of the Pecha berries filling his nose. The smell was subtle but welcome, nostrils flaring as he felt himself relaxing. He loved the smell of his kitchen and how warm it could get when he worked, but there was something calming about the aroma that drifted off trees and their fruits.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t waste the rest of his day admiring the orchard. He had things to do, same as everyone else, and so little time to do it in. “Excuse me! I hope I’m not disturbing you, but I wanted to talk to the person in charge.”
Was that a voice she heard on the edge of her (lack of) hearing? It had been so faint that Rebecca almost thought she imagined it. Then she pulled her headphones up to her scarred ears and looked over at the blond.
“Oh! You’re not disturbing me at all! I don’t get many people coming to the Undella Outskirts just for the orchard. What do you need, sir? I’m the person in charge, Rebecca Bardot. A pleasure to meet you.”
A warm smile on her freckled face as she carefully put the basket of Pecha berries down on the ground next to the tree she had been harvesting.
Rebecca hummed to herself, picking Pecha berries from the trees that almost towered above her and plonking them into the basket she was holding, unable to hear someone approaching her orchard while she worked.
Her headphones were around her neck, scarred ears in full view of anyone who managed to sneak up on her.
The champion let out a huff, plopping the basket of harvested Pecha berries on the ground next to the other baskets. They’d have to get shipped out ASAP, otherwise they’d rot in the crates.
She wondered what was going on, but honestly she didn’t have enough motivation today to find out. Rebecca had to harvest her orchard today.
almost instantly, green was raising his hands in defense. “ hey, it’s no problem if you don’t think it’s okay, it’s just an offer. ”
he lets out a laugh, waving off the notion anyway. “ it’d still be satisfy- ing enough just seeing the shock on their faces seeing me instead of you. hey, might even make ‘em run away so you won’t have to battle. ”
“I, uh…”
Rebecca looked thoughtful, thinking the offer through for a moment. Green had always been a good friend since she had become Unova champion. The headphoned champion hummed for a moment before nodding in agreement.
“Sounds like fun. I hope we can get their faces on camera.”
Visiting Johto for something like this had been a wonderful idea. Rebecca was chuckling the entire time, completely delighted by the act the performer was putting on.
“Welcome to the Unova Pokemon League. Is there anything I can help you with?”
The champion was in an expert disguise today. Visor sunglasses over her rather distinct eyes humorously made people unable to recognize her, despite the signature headphones over her ears.
