"Yep, those."
A chuckle, and she fixes a bit more the weight onto her shoulders, keeping a smile.
"Nothing wrong with liking them, y'know? A good friend of mine is reeeeeally into them too."
"I did. My big boy, behind me, actually won pretty much all the medals in the Toughness ranks back then, but we kinda realized we weren't into that stuff at all. Battling is funnier... even if the faces of the jury when someone decides to explode is always fun."
"Paperwork sucks, pretty much. I know that much." He had to deal with plenty of it as a Kahuna. It was just so mind numbingly boring...
"Into that stuff? Contests you mean?" Busted... "Well, I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to participate in one just once... It looks so cool and fancy. Have you ever done them?"
"Ah, no probs, my guy."
She's-- she's giving a thumbs up. She's holding on that giant ass bag and she's giving a thumbs up as if it was nothing. Girl what's your diet.
"That was kinda the point of this vacay, actually" she fixes the bag a little more, trotting behind them "Trekking and the battle tree. Aaaand maybe some Mantine surfing? Like, I knooow it's a tourist trap, but" a chuckle "consider me trapped, yeah?"
Oh that's. A ton of bags???
Hau is pretty impressed by the Blaziken's strength-- And sapphire's, too.
"Follow me. And if I need to help carry anything, let me know." Hau turns on his heel, starting to walk in the direction he remembered it being in.
"It's a bit of a trek, truth be told. But it's pretty worth it from what I've heard."
[ 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 ]
"Yeppers"
It's barely rudeness or disrespect.
She genuinely keeps forgetting.
"How are you holding up? Everyone doing their job at the League?"
No comment on the fact that she's blatantly ignoring her duties.
"... No matter how many times I ask you to not call me that, you're never going to stop, are you?"
Oh he barely had the time to SAY IT! As soon as she was given the okay, she already opened the first dice roll app she could find and--
"Johto it isssss apparently.
Traditional towns, biiiig mountain, mysterious cave full of alphabet soup. Sounds right up your alley!"
Alright then. They were doing this. Against his better judgement perhaps, but sometimes, not listening to that little voice in his head that told him to do as he should, was a lot more fun.
"...Go on ahead! Let's see where we're travelling to!"
@picavecalyx:
Sapphire!! How do you feel about Devon corp? [ ACCEPTING ]
“…ah. I forgot I was suppoesd to be there for a sponsor last week, woops.

The Stoners are literally Champion Steven and his dad CEO Mr.Stone.
