Hisuian + Summer Catchall [Open]
Who: Zack Fair + Various
Where: Random places in Hisui/ Johto
When: till September
Summary: Catch all for the rest of the hisui event starting from part 2 and will encompass the rest of summer just to keep things organized for now.
Rating: Teen and under but will make note if changes
Log:
Arrival/ Obsidian Fieldlands at night
It's been a wild ride since he'd arrived in this new region. At first he had felt at home in Johto and even had some buddies there like Grim and Brodoof. He was getting used to that world when he was suddenly thrown into the past. Sure, Zack had understood What Cara Liss had said but that didn't mean he liked it. He was just starting out his second chance at life and now here he was in another new world.
While he did miss his phone and other modern technology and goods {his hair gel really was sorely missed} he didn't mind being out in the wild. He'd grown up with almost nothing in the backwaters of Gongaga so this was more nostalgic of home then the other place had been.
Zack missed his buddies but luckily he had gained another buddy here. Doggo the growlithe was his buddy and he reminded Zack a lot of brodoof. Doggo would often lay at his feet or cuddle him when he was feeling sad. It was like Doggo could read his thoughts, though Zack wasn't sure if that was real or not. The jury was out on that one still. Together they had adventured around the Obsidian fieldlands, meeting other trainers every so often but usually camping out under the stars together. That was where they were currently found, huddled up under a tree. Doggo was sleeping but Zack was up and stargazing, kept up by thoughts of home and of the previous world.
Cobalt Coastlands
The coastlands were a place Zack really enjoyed. It wasn't too hot but when you laid on the beach for awhile it was warm enough to warrant a nice soak in the waters. At least he had thought that until he realized how many pokemon were in the waters. He had stopped venturing deep into the ocean after learning what lived there the hard way. Doggo wasn't even able to help him in water at all, the poor boy always waited for him patiently on the beach like the good boy he was.
Currently Zack was lounging on the beach, his growlithe laying besides him but on alert in case any other pokemon came too close and tried to bother them. He'd taken his survey corps uniform top off and was topless, only keeping the pants on for now. Doggo's tail started to wag a bit but he stayed where he was, seeing a trainer in the distance. Zack sat up, his back covered in sand and stretched a bit before getting up to survey the area around them.
Alabaster Icelands
It was cold, but with Doggo at his side he had a small furball who always generated heat. The two had trekked into the snowy fields exploring. Really it was just Zack walking in the snow with Doggo in his arms the whole time to keep them both warmer. Doggo was enjoying this and had his tongue out the entire time.
As they had explored, the duo came up upon a flock of bird pokemon that Zack obviously didn't recognize. It looked like some of the bigger birds were picking on a smaller one. Doggo whined at the scene and the two rushed in. Some of the birds (rufflets) flew off in surprise but the one that remained seemed injured in it's wing. Doggo used a fire fang on the rufflets that remained while Zack grabbed the injured Rufflet. "Hey little one, you doing okay? I'll get you some help soon I promise."
A cold wind blew as Zack brought the bird closer to his chest. He whistled for Doggo to leave the others and follow him as they ran into the wild to find any other trainer who might have some kind of healing on them.

JOHTO ADVENTURES

no subject
Still, the excitable man and his dogs are hard to miss and after a moment she's directing Lorenz' attention in the correct direction before floating over curiously herself. The little white flower she usually tends is still tucked neatly behind Lorenz' ear as he makes his way over, making a point of using the crosswalk rather than just rushing across the middle of the street like certain fairy types are able to do. "Well. Good afternoon, Zack. Do you make a habit of hollering across city streets at folk?"
As much as it is a criticism it's a playful one, with a soft smile and a hint of a chuckle in the words.
no subject
Zack was ready to hug Lorenz once he puts his pokemon down but the moment he sees him and see how much better he looks here, Zack is all smiles and a little embarrassed even. Lorenz is pretty handsome when he's not dying and that flower in his hair is really cute. Man he should have brought a flower to put in his hair.
"Nah I only do that at friends. You looks great Lorenz, I mean like..you're not suffering and just dude you look really good." Is Zack checking him out and walking around him a little predatory like? Just a little. He looks better than he was in hisui too, his hair is spikier and he's more clean shaven too. "Whatcha up to?"
no subject
"Ah! Well, yes. I believe I did mention that having my medication has made a fantastic difference." He preens just a little under the attention, adjusting the fall of his blouse a little. "You're looking rather sharp, yourself. I fear none of us were at our best in Hisui."
As he speaks Jasmine does her own, appraising loop of Zack, making notes to share with Stephanie and Claude later. Gossip.
"I was actually just getting my nails touched up for the season~" And it's clear from the way he poses his hands he's been practicing this?? You should see his joltiktok, Zack.
no subject
"I appreciate it but I don't look half as nice as you do. I just have gel in my hair is really the difference...and I shaved so yeah." He watches the pokemon taking notice of him and smiles at her. He's about to ask what her name is when Lorenz show him his nails and his eyes widen a little. "Oh man you got claws! I love them! Super festive too!"
He moves in a little closer and Doggo is now close enough to sniff at Lorenz now and lick his hand in appraisal of the nails. Yes even Doggo likes the colors.
"Seeing as how you're all dressed up, do you have plans or something? Also what's your pokemon's name? Never seen one of these before. It's like a flower fairy, I had this girl back where I came from who would have loved it."
no subject
Goddess help him have his standards gotten so low?
"Dressed up? Nonsense, this is nothing." He laughs a little, cheeks coloring slightly as he waves a dismissive hand. "And no, I haven't anything else, in particular, I'm doing while I'm out. I thought I might do a little shopping?"
An elegant shrug that intentionally makes more room for Jasmine to float over his shoulder, tucking herself in beside his ear so she can reach out for the stem of her flower like a security blanket. "She is a flower fairy. Her name is Jasmine, she's a floette. A fairy type. She's very protective of her flower but I'm sure she'd love to say hello... as long as Doggo doesn't try to lick her." Violet eyes flick down to the growlithe and he holds one finger out to in a stern wait kind of gesture.
He's not entirely sure it will be effective but he has to try. Besides, focusing on the pokemon means not thinking too hard on the last thing Zack said. Not I knew but I had... something that possessive is difficult to misinterpret. Which is fine, of course! He is awfully fond of the other man but it hardly means they can't be friends.
no subject
Doggo seems to listen to the words that Lorenz says and so he does not lick the flourette but instead sniffs her and barks happily, turning to lick Zack's face instead. He had to lick someone after all.
The lick gets Zack laughing a bit and once he wipes his face off with his glove he nods his head over to a nearby Cafe. "Well since you have nothing to do and I have nothing to do...want to go catch a snack with me? It can be a date!" As soon as he says the words though he pauses and shakes his head. Consent, right, he needs to not force a date. "I mean if you want to of course! We can just be bros too getting drinks together. That works too." His deep blue eyes looked away from Lorenz then, kicking a little at the ground at his blunder and a faint blush on his face. "I'm okay with anything..."

There's no mistaking that when he gets all blushy like that?!
DONE
Jasmine floating over to hover by Zack's ear gesturing at this sad puppy is not helping.
"W-well... um... perhaps... a trial date? Just to see." See what, Lorenz?!
Re: DONE
Is it too soon? Does Lorenz even like guys? Maybe he has someone already? Zack should have asked some other questions before asking him out and he quickly puts Doggo down and holds up his hands.
"Hey um, its okay if you are unsure. It doesn't have to be a date Lor. I just thought it'd be nice and I haven't been on one in so long and you're cute so..." He trails off, that kicked puppy look on his face, big blue eyes looking into violet ones. "A test trial works too if you're really okay with it."
no subject
"I appreciate the compliment, Zack, I do. And you are... infuriatingly charming yourself. So..." He gestures down the street toward the cafe in question.
no subject
Then it hits him. "Wait...infuriatingly charming? Oh no. Am I annoying you Lor?"
no subject
"No, not at all. It turns out I am horribly weak to men with a bright smile and a troublesome streak. The charm is only infuriating because it is so effective at making me forget how to speak." He huffs dramatically, leaning over the table as though he is carrying some great burden. But there's a coy little smile that tugs at his lips as he glances at Zack, warm and appreciative. "You know I'm meant to be a politician. How can I govern my people if I fall to pieces every time a rakishly charming man winks at me?"
Look, Zack, he just has to be a tsun little shit about it to protect his pride okay.
no subject
Zack's own face seems to actually grow a bit darker at Lorenz's words. Lor thinks he's charming?? He likes his smile??? He has to be talking about another person right? It can't be him. Zack knows he has a good smile but he never thought Lorenz would admit to being weak to it, no ones ever really admitted to it verbally at least.
"I.." Zack's at a loss for words and he quickly grabs a menu t cover some of his face with the menu, just his lips covered from the bright smile he's wearing at Lorenz's confession. Oh he's very happy and giddy indeed behind that menu. "I think you are really charming too Lor, a lot more than me anyway."
no subject
He does tsk gently though, reaching out to take the menu from Zack, removing both his hiding place and his options. "Allow me to guess, will you?"
Tea is what he does, Zack. If he can't pick out the perfect tea for you then he's a failure. (Spoilers: it's Southern Fruit Blend)
no subject
His smile falters for a moment as he thinks of the last time he didn't have to think for things himself and his heartstrings pull at his chest. His hand goes to his pokeball belt where Geal's pokeball is and he holds it in his hand for a moment before looking back over at Lorenz and rejoining the conversation.
"I bet you were amazing at your job. I never really was much for politics. Just a Soldier trying to do what was right and maybe become a hero. Not sure if I ever reached my goal." He pauses and puts an arm on the counter, resting his hand in his palm as he looks at Lorenz. "What about you? Any 'unattainable dreams' in your previous world?"
