[ also quickly added this rule since ppl are still allergic to overpowered female characters ]
"I mean, you can just leave League duty to Wallace again?
I do that all the time."
Girl you shouldn't brag about that.
"Staying in the League room all the time is laaaaaaame, we should explore while we can, no?"
Seeing the four Ice Stones shoved into his hands, his entire face lights up, and he grins wide as a Sableye.
"All for my collection!? Thank you, Sapphire! I'm truly humbled."
He'd have to find her some rare stone in return or treat her to a coffee or something.
"I really must visit somewhere new soon outside of necessary Devon and League business trips. Then I'd actually have time to find such qunatities as these of things!"
[ also while she's the undefeated champion, she doesn't particularly like fighting for the title so she's leaving that to steven or wallace most of the time. when she IS doing title defense battles, however. most people just straight up decide to give up halfway fansdmfgdsf ]
"Surprised?"
She's chill, sure, but still beaming with pride. Everyone always talks about the children who faced the bad guys who wanted to take over and/or destroy the world, everyone forgets to ask them how they feel about it.
Good. After all those years, after Archie outed himself as a pretty cool guy, Sapphire still felt good.
"Ssssso you're saying I did you a favor back then?" she giggles, her legs wriggling back and forth over the chair she slouched on "You're welcome, my duuuude!"
@whereskymeetsea approached: " i was pretty mean back then, wasn't i? " <- said with a chill yet slightly smug grin. yea. mean. she kicked his ass severely
"...Yeah, actually. Ya were." He hasn't forgotten the massive ass-kicking, no. "Ya still smug 'bout it, hmm? Well, no matter. I needed it a' the moment."
"Ayuuup! I relax just fine everyday, I just wanted some extra spice, you know?"
Sometimes you have to dive in new seas, climb new volcanoes, get lost in new woods… and sleep in new beds!
"From Hoenn, actually. Surfed on a few Sharpedos back at home, but from what I heard Mantines are much easier to deal with, yea?" a calm chuckle "But if you have any tips, I'll be ready to take some notes."
Holy shit this woman had some power in her. He'd have to ask for some work-out tips later.
"Oh, heck yeah! So active activities and battling? Sounds right up my alley, actually."
At the mention of Mantine surfing he chuckles. "It's actually pretty fun! Can give you some tips if you want? But honestly, I doubt you'd need them." She looked like she'd rock the waves with ease. "Where are you from originally?"

Her smile widened ever so slightly.
"Now we're talkin', Stevie!"
She's not dropping the fucking nickname, nope!
"Thinking too much will make your brain melt. I found the best places I've ever seen just while walking around a random town I ended up droppin' in after skydiving, actually. In fact--"
--she pulls out her phone!
"Want me to roll? Right now. No backsies."
Ooh. Spotaneity and impulsivity. A roll of the dice as to where they'd be off too. He liked that thought.
"...Actually, that sounds like a fun idea! Why should we have to decide when we can have the world do it for us?"
"Wait, real?"
Cue a thumbs up.
"Cool, thanks dude. Then hold on one sec."
And at that she turns to the boat, puts two fingers between her lips and whistles. In a matter of seconds here comes Lyle, her Blaziken, effortlessly holding- Oh that's a lot of bags. She picked up-- arguably the biggest one, one hell of a trekking backpack, but that's still a lot.
"Can you hold 'em a little longer, buddy?"
Cue another thumbs up, this time from the Blaziken.
"Hella." again, she returns the same gesture before fixing the bag on her shoulder, turning again to Hau "Okay, lead the way."
"Oh! I do know where that is, actually!"
"I can take you there if you want? I don't have anything better to do right now anyway." It would take their mind off swimming, too. Apparently you can't swim with a new tattoo? Mean to him.
