| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 574 || TAG: Akira "Raine" Kaitos | Leo took a few moments to recompose himself following the rant that he had erupted into. Realising it was perhaps a little over the top, but the older male had certainly pushed him to such lengths with his attitude. The attitude of course continued, almost as if the older male was trying his best to upset the teen.
Taking a deep breath, Leo shook his head for a moment before turning back to Akira. "You're right. Shouting wasn't the best answer. But come on Akira. What makes you think I deserve to be treated the way you are treating me? Surely you can see that although you're not shouting you are being incredibly hurtful. I..." he paused for a moment, shifting his gaze away from the raven haired man. "I don't want to fight with you. I'm trying to make things right. If that means I have to suffer some heat too, then so be it, but not from you. I care about you, even if you don't so much right now." he mumbled, keeping his gaze averted from the dual coloured eyes.
As Akira got up to attend to the Golduck, the teen was then spoken to again by the Absol that accompanied the older male. Sure she was right that Leo hadn't had many encounters with Akira. Perhaps this was his way of dealing with things. A heavy sigh escaped him as he turned to face the pokemon. "I understand what you're saying." he spoke as he looked to the man trying to sort out the situation with the water type. "I don't want to change who he is. I think he's great, sure things happened that we both wish we could take back, but it is what it is. And of course it's wonderful that he wants to protect people, but you see, that is how I am as well." he continued, shifting his gaze back to Kaisa. "The problem is. Behaving this way is not protecting me. If anything it hurts more than anything the others could have done or could possibly do to me. So no, I don't want to change who he is as a person but this behaviour is not okay." he finished, the firmness being returned back to the Absol as he explained his feelings.
When it came to the new hatchling, Leo and Vanim continued to make attempts to block the little one's escape, whilst the teen couldn't help but chuckle slightly at the pokemon's efforts to intimidate them with it's "roar". Before long however, Akira had returned and managed to get a hold of the pokemon whilst it was distracted. The growl that would come from the older male was not something Leo expected to hear, however it seemed to put the pokemon in it's place who would huff in response to it's trainers scolding before continuing to make it's own little sounds.
"Look at you being all Papa Bear like!" Leo chuckled as he made moved his hands to grab a near by chair in an effort to push himself back to an upright position. The attempts of course would be for nothing as the chair slipped and the teen fell backwards. Vanim observed the teen as he fell, a slight chuckle escaped the canine as Leo continued to grumble whilst flailing about slightly in an effort once again to stand himself up. "That's right Vanim. You laugh, Don't you worry about me"

'I want you to hold on because you are the reason I keep livingTo be apart from you would be more painful than deathSo stay with me as you know I'd come for you wherever you will go even if to the ends of the earthFor you are more precious to me than life itself' Akira 'Raine' KaitosMusic: N/A | |Location: Vester City || Outfit: usual outfit plus red and white jacket OOC Info:notes: roll on egg hatching and arguments || "Akira Speech" || Leo Lockward
Now of course Akira could in no way deny the fact that the younger man that were Leo most certainly did not deserve the way in which he were being treated by the raven haired man, more so when he could but imagine and safly assume this were jsut as horible for him as it was for everyone else. This would have been the reason that the dual eyed man would have paused before he moved away and allowed a sigh to escape him while he waited until the younger ,ale had finished speaking before he would come to offer something of an answer even if it may nit be one that were liked. "You want to know why I am being hurtful? Because I am wanting to give you the option to hate me - for you have every right to dislike me as others do given I in essence dragged you into this situation and it's equally if not more unfair on you also is it not? Therefore I am trying to give you an out so you feel justified in being hurt and angry with the situation. Regardless of your intentions to make things right - let's be honest here, it's not me that things need to be made right with you're smarter than that surely? So you don't need to worry about 'caring' about me." Akira would counter and attempt to reaso, dual eyes remaining upon the other younger man for an age before he woudl have looked and moved away.
Kaisa meanwhile would continue to study the younger man that was Leo for the longrst of times after she had finished speaking, a clear sense of wariness emanating from the Absol as she were not sure as to what to expect from Leo after she had spoken, however when he would begin to speak and generally repeat and add on what he had already made mention to the raven haired man the white furred female found herself sighing slightly and nodding in understanding all the same. < Ever think that he is behaving like this beside aside from the condition that he is in on the surface and what else is affecting Akira - all the pain, sickness and stuff in between - because he is hurting too? It's hurting him more than you realise that he caused all this and he wants to try find a way to make it right and he doesn't care if his behavior makes you hate him even if don't want to. He is a difficult one at times. > Kaisa spoke softly.
Meanwhile once the little burst of chaos that were the hatching of the small pokemon that were now within the raven haired man's arms and naturally were now subsequently restrained, it would be from here that Akira would have taken note of what Leo had said and actually allow the faintest look of amusement to form upon his features as a result before he began to speak. "More like something I learnt from my grandfather in my birth place, Baby dragons have a thing for trying to 'challange' the older and larger adults, gotta put them in their place early or else they try walk all over you." Akira commented in something of a dismissive manner and in an equally vague way also as he turned to look away while shrugging in turn.
That was up until the teen fell and seemed to begin struggling to get up, this in itself would have been more than enough to get Orion getting up from where he were sitting before the shiny Audino would seem to be about to move nearer to try help Leo up before coming to a sudden stop as Akira gestured for the shiny male to stay where he were. "It's alright Orion, I'll get him - don't want you hurting yourself." Akira spoke, from here stepping towards the fallen teen in order to bend down slightly and - after having balanced the little baby in his other arm - offer out a hand to Leo in a wary manner. Of course the teen would have the option of refusing if he wished.

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 539 || TAG: Akira "Raine" Kaitos | Of course it was no surprise that Leo was upset at the behaviour of the raven haired man that was Akira. He was however coming to believe that it was perhaps a defense mechanism for the man, whether that be to protect himself or others. However as the man came to speak, Leo would soon find himself struggling to find the words. He was really that selfless that he would give a person the opportunity to hate him just to give them an out from the trouble that they were in? His eyes fell to the ground for an age, before a heavy sigh escaped him. "You didn't drag me into anything. I made my own decisions which contributed to this whole mess. If that is the logic then surely you would have reason to hate me too?" the teen spoke, softly before raising his crystal blue, albeit teary gaze back to the others. "I appreciate you're trying to do what you think is best. But if you are simply offering for me to hate you, then I don't want it. I am happy caring about you despite how things have turned out, I don't wish any ill will toward you." he finished before trying to offer the man a weak smile.
Kaisa spoke to Leo once more offering her thoughts on the matter at hand and her trainer. She of course made sense, he understood that Akira was suffering even if he didn't know the man as well as the Absol. "You're right." the teen would come to respond bluntly. "I guess I may be being selfish in a way. But, sadly for him, I'm not going to hate him so he will have to find some other way of beating himself up." he shrugged before letting lose a sigh.
A short while later and once Akira had managed to get a handle on his newly hatched pokemon, Leo noticed a flash of amusement upon the man's face as Leo had come to speak of Akira being very fatherly. The raven haired man then came to explain the teachings from his grandfather about baby dragons and their affinity or trying to challenge their elders. Leo laughed for a moment "Sounds like a rebellious teen.... as a baby." he continued to speak for a moment before an idea jumped into his head. "Hey, I have a dragon with me now too! Perhaps they could play!" he mused allowed, a slightly excited smile appearing on the teen's face.
Vanim continued laughing at his trainer who had since fallen to the ground, turning to Orion who was now rushing over to assist. "Oh come now don't ruin the fun! He's like a Tirtouga that has fallen on his back. Comedy gold!" the canine sputtered out between his laughs, as Akira instead made his way over, telling Orion not to worry. Giving up for a moment the teen huffed before noticing Akira's hand. Looking up into the dual coloured eyes, the teen paused for what felt like an age. It had been a while since he had gazed into them.
Snapping himself back to reality, the teen used one hand to grab hold of Akira's, a defeated smile upon his face. "Thanks..."

And while in turn there were the probability that Akira would not truly be aware of such a thing however it were indeed more than a little likely that certain mannerisms that made up the raven haired man - namely current ones - were indeed something of a defence mechanism, The fact that current circumstances and the like were to result in such behaviours intensifying somewhat and becoming more noticeable, but it were not something that Akira were not going to fully take note of unless it were pointed out to him, that were assuming it ever would be. "And by your own logic my own decisions were worse than yours especially leaving out certain details, so that cancels out me 'hating' you yes? But whatever - your old enough to make whatever choices you want even if I think it's not the best choice as far as I am concerned." The words would be mildly brusque or the like and though he would have indeed observed the teary look on the younger man's features but also would have tried to ignore it as best as he could even if he would feel guilty about it in turn.
Well, the fact that Leo would seem to finally come to understand where the Absol were coming from when she tried to explain the raven haired man's general intentions and reasoning's behind his behaviour and the like would Kaisa find herself sighing in relief and generally relaxing a little more now. Though the boy's apparent 'blunt' response would get her rolling her eyes slightly before shaking her head in what could only be described as a disapproving manner but wouldn't in any other way acknowledge such a thing.
< I know I am right, nearly always am. . . . And if you dare let him hear you say that then you can bet everything you own that the stupid boy will easily find a way of beating himself up. If that happens I will happily break your other leg or something else equally painful before having dear Orion here patch you up again - he has become quite the little medic recently. > Kaisa would state in a surprisingly sweet yet deadly manner as she rose to her feet to purposefully step towards Leo all the while keeping her eyes focused on the younger man to ensure he understood what she were saying.
Now at Leo's particular - yet oddly accurate in some manner - description of the behaviour of the small dragon (at least Akira presumed this little one was) in his arms, he would most certainly have to look up the information about this little one at some point and generally find out about what the little pokemon was. Though Akira's focus would soon shift to the younger man once more when mention were made of the other owning a dragon of his own that would get the older male seeming to shrug ever so slightly after a time in a almost dismissive manner. "Good for you . . . . If you really want I guess?" Would come the vague and noncommittal manner before he would shrug slightly.
Now when it would come to Akira 'attempting' to offer some aid to the younger man would he simply arch an eyebrow ever so slightly when the other male would look back up at him, Akira would take the pause as a refusal of his help before seeming to be about to pull his hand away. "If you don't want any help then just say so, stay down there if y- . . . . " Woudl the raven haired man begin to speak before he would cut himself off when he felt Leo take his hand for the help, it would be with that would Akira grip the other's hand in a reasonably tight manner before grunting faintly as he attempted to shift his weight and step back in order to help the teen up.

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 508 || TAG: Akira "Raine" Kaitos | Listening to the raven haired, older male that was Akira speak once more, it came to feel as if the two were coming to an understanding of sorts. Leo sighed and blinked back the frustrated tears that were trying to let themselves loose. "Well that's the way I see it yes. You may not think it is the best choice and I appreciate that, but I have to make my own decisions." the teen responded.
When it came to Kaisa, the white furred pokemon soon appeared slightly more relaxed as Leo came to agree with her words. Although, it was very clear that she would do anything necessary to protect herself and her trainer in the way that she marched forward upon the teen, with the sweet but also deadly almost threat she made. From behind Leo, a loud roar of laughter erupted as Vanim, observing the interaction was apparently enjoying watching the Absol striking the fear of Arceus into his trainer. "Yeah. I really like you!" he chuckled. The teen once again shot a disapproving glare to the canine before sighing and nodding to Kaisa. "Got it."
When it came to the hatchling, once Akira had finally managed to get the little creature under control, and things had settled, the raven haired man seemed totally uninterested in Leo's offer to give the newborn a little play mate. The teen huffed for a moment, rolling his eyes as he reached for a pokeball on his belt.
Before he could release the pokemon however, the teen had, in usual fashion ended up on the floor once again. Vanim laughing, Leo struggling, it was just a typical day for the teen at the moment.
Naturally losing himself in the dual coloured eyes of Akira, the teen eventually snapped back to the older male beginning to snap at him once more, although seemingly stopping mid speech as Leo grabbed his hand. Eventually getting back to his feet, Leo stopped to look at Akira once more. "Y'know, you shouldn't always think I'm sulking silly." the teen chuckled for a moment before brushing himself off. "In all honesty, it had simply been a while since I had seen those eyes of yours and I was just enjoying the view for a moment." he finished, lowering his gaze for a moment, a slight blush painting his cheeks.
Shaking his head for a moment, the teen let loose a nervous laugh before grabbing once again for the pokeball he had intended to use previous. "Come on out Angel." he spoke, pressing the button the device to allow a bright red flash of light fire from it. From the light emerged the Shulian Axew that Leo had acquired after their last meeting.
"Why don't you go and meet the little one buddy." he spoke softly to the Axew before turning back to Akira. "I promise this isn't the Axew from the Zoo...." the teen would come to laugh, remembering back to the Axew he had been allowed to hold when they were in the dragon enclosure.

Now of course if there had indeed been the temptation - and there most certainly had been, would be a lie if the opposite were claimed - at one point during the initial conversations between himself and Leo that upon seeing the potential of tears (frustrated or otherwise) threatening to fall from the younger man's eyes Akira would to physically stop himself from doing such a thing. For that sort of thing would not exactly be appropriate for him to do would it? More so taking into consideration of all that had come to pass up until and including this point so to touch the young man would be an awful idea on his part right? This would have been the only reason for Akira having stayed quiet while simply and vaguely offering the faintest of nods in way of answer even if it were not much of one to begin with it were true.
Now though Kaisa in many ways would have meant all of what she had said to be intended as the threat it was and would be keeping her focus solely upon the younger male that was Leo, it would in no way not mean that she would not have heard Vanim - it were hard to ignore him after all - but she would only manage the faintest of twitches to indicate that she would have acknowledged the other canine's words as the briefest ghosts of a smile formed upon her features before just as quickly fading. The only movement that the Absol female would make would be to manage a nod back to the younger human male when he acknowledged her own words, well at least they would have an understanding with each other - there were no need for Kaisa to be on guard any longer for now. < Good boy . . . . good children deserve nice treats. > Would the white furred female speak before her focus would be tugged away from Leo for a short time and make efforts to go through some of the 'pockets' on her harness and while using her weaker psychic moves to retrieve a generic chocolate bar to drop it onto the boys lap. From here would Kaisa had retreated a little to so sit herself down once more near Vanim.
Now turning back to Akira and his attempts to carefully and safely balance his newest addition in one arm while having extended the other to be seen to make an effort to help Leo get to his feet once more Akira would find himself rolling his eyes ever so slightly at the whole sulking comment before a faint sigh would come to escape him in turn. "If you say so kiddo . . .. could have fooled me. . . . " Would be the faint response from AKira, that was up until the next comment would be made about his eyes that would cause a certain amount of embarrassed awkwardness to come over the older male as he helped his younger counterpart to his feet before looking away for a time before mumbling further. "Yeah and you're probably saying that to be nice right? Not many people find 'the view' nice, little freaky maybe given the circumstances - you'd be one of the few who don't actually mind." Akira would find himself responding in something of an unconvinced manner.
Now it would be what Leo would come to say as he released the pokemon he were speaking of - what were to turn out to be a Shulian Axew no less - that would surprise Akira and cause him to tense up faintly before dual eyes snapped round to focus upon the little blue dragon and stare upon the small being as the raven haired found himself subconsciously crouching down to study the released dragon while gently setting down his own newly hatched baby. "Now you be nice little one, no causing any trouble." Would be all the older man would say before nudging his own youngster off towards the other before rising to his feet again and looking to Leo who spoke again.
"I would hope not . . . . . haven't heard of any break ins and no one is missing either." Akira would softly throw back in time in a faintly amused manner, not that the raven haired man would be able to make further comments on the subject before it would seem as if the Golduck that he had been dealing with a short time ago would have moved back towards the two young men carrying a tray with some goodies for the group and look between the two men for a time.
"Oh, I presumed you might had been hungry? And a little thirsty? If you wanted something to eat or the like."

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 390 || TAG: Akira "Raine" Kaitos | Leo and Kaisa seemed to be at what appeared to be a stand off for a short while after the Absol "threat". Vanim of course was loving the grilling his trainer was getting, although he couldn't deny the fact that he was slightly impressed with the teen's stance to defend himself. He took the Absol's slight twitch as an acknowledgement to his previous comments. The tension soon began to ease as Kaisa located a chocolate bar and dropped it upon the teen's lap. Smiling weakly the teen nodded to the pokemon before offering a mumbled "Thanks Kaisa" as she went and settled closer to Vanim.
Leo rolled his eyes at Akira's comments. Did he really think he was just a whiny kid? It didn't matter as the teen's comments on the older male's eyes made the man tense up. Once again the raven haired man seemed to struggle taking the teen at his word, something that brought about an irritable huff. "Surely, you would have learnt from last time that I mean what I say." the teen sighed rolling his eyes. "I love your eyes. They are pretty to look at, they make you unique. It's just one of the things I like about you." he shrugged and turned away slightly.
Soon after releasing Angel from his Pokeball, the raven haired man lowered himself to allow the newborn to play. Angel paused and observed for a moment, shifting his gaze between the baby pokemon and Akira before taking a step closer. "It's alright Angel. You can play" Leo spoke softly to the small dragon who held a paw out to the younger pokemon.
When it came to the comment regarding the zoo, Leo couldn't help but laugh at Akira's response. "Always so serious Angel..." he chuckled before his attention was drawn to the Golduck approaching with a tray of food and drinks.
"Well, I guess it would make sense to actually eat and drink something on a café no?" the teen winked before grabbing one of the drinks which appeared to be a shake of some kind. "So, what are you going to name the little one? He's so adorable. Although I can see him having a feisty side like you" the teen winked before taking a sip of the milkshake, leaving a trail along the top of his lip.

Now it were not like Kaisa actually enjoyed threatening others - especially Leo here considering he did indeed seem like a good boy indeed - but she would do such things if the situation required such, though whether she would follow through with the threat was an entirely different matter. But since her preception of the young human were more positive than anything else and therefore would result in the Absol female being more inclined to not quite follow through with such things, this would be the very reason for her muffled hurumph from the white pelted female as she got comfortable next to Vanim. After all the strange canine that he was understood her and oddly she actually liked him - well maybe it were just their similliar views on some things maybe?
Now Akira would not be able to help but wince slightly at his particular choice of words, for he hadn't meant to imply that Leo were in any way a whiny kid but it were also a bit too late to take his words back now, rather Akira would mentally slap himself before a small sigh escaped him. "True, I probably should but then again I seem to have trouble learnign things - there's a lot of people who can vouch for that." Akira found himself throwing back before managing the smallest of shrugs in a seemingly dismissive yet amused manner. With that would Akira go quiet and simply listen to Leo's follow up comment before his general demeanour woudl seem to soften slightly as he sighed and divert his gaze from the younger man for a moment. "Well; that's nicer than what I have been called before but thanks I guess." Akira would mumble after a while.
Now when it would come to the pair of small pokemon and after a little encouragement from the raven haired man also would the newly hatched youngster finally step towards the oddly blue drahon and extend a small hand to take the others with a happy chatter ready for whatever games they would play. Now in Akira's case once he had settled down into a seat once more would he withdraw back into silence and simply observe as the Golduck set the tray down and the raven haired man would offer thanks to the water type before it turned and left the humans alone once more. From here would AKira retrieve the tea pot and mug that were there and puring some of the hot liquid from within into the waiting receptical before managing an amused rolling of his eyes in response but would dare to manage a brief and small smile.
"Not sure yet . . . . Though, one that does some to mind because the little one feel's colld if Yinyin." Akira woudl find himself musing in a thoughtful manner before lifting the mug to his lips to take a sip of the tea within, from ehre would dual eyes glance to Leo as a faintly amused look filled them at what had occured to Leo, though he would make an effort to gesture to the other before speaking. "Got a little something there kiddo."

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 392 || TAG: Akira "Raine" Kaitos | Leo observed as Akira appeared to wince slightly at his choice of words, which just went to show in Leo's eyes that the older male was not wanting to be horrible to him. A soft smile crept over the teens face, shortly followed by a smug grin at Akira stating he had trouble learning things. "Well... I guess you'll just have to try harder huh?" he responded with a wink before poking his tongue out playfully.
As Akira's demeanour softened, Leo sighed a quiet sigh of relief, the tension he felt earlier starting to shift slightly. "Well, people need to be nicer. It doesn't cost anything to be kind to people." the teen shrugged before playfully attempting to softly nudge the older male.
The Axew meanwhile observed the newborn for a moment, who in turn was seemingly sizing him up, before a happy chatter would begin to sound as it stepped forward. Angel smiled nervously before attempting to raise the newborn onto it's back and walk him around the room, almost as if one were riding a ponyta.
Slowly hopping back to his seat, the teen lowered himself down opposite he raven haired male who had begun pouring himself some tea into one of the mugs provided by the Golduck who was now away from the table again. Leo chuckled slightly "He's probably afraid something else is going to get poured over you!" he sputterd in between the laughs before taking a deep breath and returning his gaze to looked into the dual coloured orbs once more.
Listening as Akira began to speak of the possible name for his newborn, the teen shifted his gaze between both the raven haired male and the new born to try and gain an understanding to his words. "Actually, that sounds pretty adorable!" he chirped, a wide smile creeping over his features, turning to face the older male once more.
What was he pointing at? Leo cocked his head slightly, puzzled before he heard the man speak and his eyes widened. "Oh no...." he mumbled before turning away quickly, his cheeks flushing a bright red. "Boy am I classy or what?" he sighed, blindly reaching for a napkin to wipe around his mouth.
Folding the napkin up, the teen returned his gaze to the older male with a nervous but wide smile upon his face. "Better?"

'I want you to hold on because you are the reason I keep livingTo be apart from you would be more painful than deathSo stay with me as you know I'd come for you wherever you will go even if to the ends of the earthFor you are more precious to me than life itself' Akira 'Raine' KaitosMusic: N/A | |Location: Vester City || Outfit: usual outfit plus red and white jacket OOC Info:notes: roll on egg hatching and arguments || "Akira Speech" || Leo Lockward
"I doubt it would work out too well - not with my awful track record of such things. Don't expect or hope for too much there." It wasn't that Akira in any way considered that he would be incapable of 'learning' anything but alternatively he were well aware of how easily and quickly he managed to do stupid things without having allowed himself to consider the consequences of such, this would be all the reason for the raven haired man soon seeming to just shrug ever so slightly in turn.
"Doesn't hurt to be honest with each other either even if it is hurtful - that's just how life is. . . . " It wasn't the best counter argument from the older male but it were all he could manage without being overly - he hoped - nasty about it, only here would he seem to shift awkwardly when he were nudged. Now in the case of the newborn, the newly named - even if he were not to know such a thing as of yet - Yinyin would be less nervous around the blue dragon and rather would almost cling to the other dragon like a typical younger sibling would to and older one and continue to chatter happily away as they moved about.
Having lifted the mug of tea about halfway up to his mouth and holding it in both hands, Akira would have seemed to be about to take a sip before pausing and looking over the rim towards Leo not only when the other began chuckling but also the comment that came after, sure he could certainly see that which would be the very reason that dual eyes would glance to the literal large water duck who had observed the humans for a moment longer before moving away. "Oh I promised it wouldn't happen again, besides it was only because Kaisa was telling me off anyway - but on the same side will be avoiding bringing any liquids near us now." Akira would find himself mumbling in response.
Now when the younger man would make his own comments regarding his thoughts on the name Akira had considered for his new addition would the older man seem somewhat unsurprised by the other's words, not that he would be allowing his mind to focus on this for much longer taking into account he would be a little more focused on the 'milktache' that were momentarily upon Leo's lips. Of course Akira would try his best to both not look as amused as he felt and also make a conscious effort to not lean over and wipe it away himself, though thankfully it would probably be a good thing that he would get distracted by Orion who would be trying to pour himself some orange juice to no success - a detail that would get the raven haired man helping with. "Yes, much better . . . . could have been worse though." Akira found himself responding before casting a quick glance towards the younger male and nodding.
Having taken enough time to calm down - of sorts - would Kaisa have finally lifted her head from where she had been resting it upon her fore paws and glancing around to Vanim in a mildly curiously manner while eyeing the male equally as curiously. < You want a drink of something? See if I can get us something? > The Absol female asked almost lamely.

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 377 || TAG: Akira "Raine" Kaitos | Leo rolled his eyes for a moment before chuckling. "Hey if there's no hope, what do we have eh?" the teen quipped back before poking his tongue out.
Angel let loose a laugh as Yinyin clung on to him. "Okay let's gooooo!" he cheered as he began dashing around, weaving in and out of the empty chairs.
Leo cocked his head for a moment as Akira spoke about being honest. While he wasn't wrong, there was a certain attitude in it that puzzled the teen. There was little point in trying to call it out, so the teen simply nodded in agreement. "Yeah. That too." he responded bluntly before shifting his gaze to the two pokemon playing. "Becareful you two!" he called out as he watched them weaving through the chairs.
Watching the raven haired man attempting to sip his tea before shifting his gaze to the golduck the teen couldn't help but smile softly. "Yeah, Kaisa has certainly been on form today with the telling people off..." he chuckled shifting his gaze to the Absol for a brief moment. She was good for Akira. Someone had to keep him in check, at least as much as she were able to anyway, given how stubborn he was too. He smiled back to Akira for a moment. "Make sure you do as you're told with her or you're in trouble" he chuckled.
Leo could feel the colour rushing to his face as he made every effort to erase the 'milktache' that had appeared on his face. Noticing the amused look on the raven haired males face, the teen huffed. "It's not funny!" he whined with a feigned look of being offended. "How much worse could it be. My dignity has just fallen through the floor!" he cried before letting loose a nervous laugh. Hopefully this would at least lighten the air a little now.
Meanwhile, Vanim lazily turned his head to face Kaisa as she began speaking to him once more. At least she was of vague interest to the pup. She was tough, something he valued. After all you had to be tough to survive. He let loose a heavy sigh for a moment. "Sure - I guess we need to do something to pass the time right?"

'I want you to hold on because you are the reason I keep livingTo be apart from you would be more painful than deathSo stay with me as you know I'd come for you wherever you will go even if to the ends of the earthFor you are more precious to me than life itself' Akira 'Raine' KaitosMusic: N/A | |Location: Vester City || Outfit: usual outfit plus red and white jacket OOC Info:notes: roll on egg hatching and arguments || "Akira Speech" || Leo Lockward
"A lot of thigns but not all of them positive." Akira would find himself responding purposefully vaguely, well he had been somewhat miserable enough already thus far so what were the point in him ruining Leo's day any further? If he was going to ruin anyone's then then it should be his own and at another point in time when he were by himself or the like, meanwhile in the case of the small dragons would the smaller Yinyin chatter wordlessly before allowing a cheer of his own to burst forth in a cheery manner before what could only be described as giggles escaped the youngster.
Now upon hearing Leo's blunt response would Akira at least ensure to avoid looking the younger man in the eye and would make great efforts to disguise any 'flinching' that may come as a result of the words directed towards him, it would be about here that the raven haired man would be somewhat glad of the distraction offered by the two small pokemon which would get Akira sighing in relief.
"Yes, Kaisa has certainly often been really good at doing that sort of thing. . . . . Just sucks I don't get anything nice out of it when I have been good. Someone keeps giving the gummy bears to everyone else except me." Akira would find himself responding in a feigned huffy manner though with a faint smile as he glanced towards the white furred female who would seem to roll her eyes slightly at hearing this but seemed to ignore the man in equal measures. The jab at 'doing as told otherwise trouble' would be enough to get Akira smiling in a sad manner as this time all he could manage was a small nod of agreement before he would stop himself from daring to answer before sipping at his tea as dual eyes found themselves being tugged away and avoiding looking at the younger man before mumbling. "Bit late there but whatever you say."
Now Akira would jsut be glad for the fact that there would be a distraction in the form of Leo's momentary embarressment, even if it were not Akira's intention to cause such it were just good to have something different to focus on he would jsut have to resist the temptation to do anything about it. "Well, you wouldn't want me to go for the alternative so finding it funny - and am I allowed to say cute? - is the batter thing to do." Akira would find himself countering pointedily after a while, well it were true right?
"Believe me your dignity and the like is still intact so don't worry. Could have treated you like a children and then you could claim that." Akira would throw back in an amused manner, Kaisa on the other paw would study Vanim for a while longer and listen to his response before she would manage a nod. From here would she slowly get to her feet and without missing a beat would she remove her human's wallet from his pocket before heading over to the nearby counter to place her order. It would take a while but in time Kaisa would return carryung a basket with a couple of bowls within it's depths and a selection of different flavoured drinks suitable for pokemon so that Vanim had a choice.
< Courtesy of the older stupid human, whichever one or more that you like. > Kaisa would state as she positioned their respective bowls before each of them.

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 581 || TAG: Akira "Raine" Kaitos | Leo sighed as Akira spoke once more as to how not everything was positive. Letting loose a slight chuckle, the teen nudged the older male for a moment. "Well obviously. Nothing is perfect, hence the hope for better things!" he winked before his attention was snapped to the giggling coming from Yinyin and Angel, causing him to miss the flinching of the raven haired man. Angel stopped charging around the place before attempting to lift Yinyin into the air and spin around for a moment. Leo ran a hand through his dark hair before letting loose a soft laugh. "Looks like they're having fun, huh?" he asked shifting his gaze back to Akira with a grin on his face.
Swapping his gaze between the Absol and the dual coloured eyes in front of him, the teen laughed as the older male began to huff at not being given any gummy bears. "I'm sure I could get you some gummy bears if you're a good boy" Leo winked before his laughter continued a few moments longer. When it come to the notion of being in trouble, Leo noticed the sad smile upon the Akira's face and let loose a soft sigh. "Well, let's start from this point on right?" he said reaching a hand out in an attempt to assuringly pat Akira's hand.
Leo paused for a moment at Akira's next words, slightly puzzled, "Alternative? What's the alternative?" he quizzed curiously, arching an eyebrow as he asked the question. "I mean, you know I'll never reject being called cute.... But, it's still embarrassing as hell!" he chuckled before wiping his mouth again, to make sure all the evidence of the mishap had been erased.
With the older male's next comment, the teen couldn't help but laugh. "Why am I getting visions of you turning into a mama bear and cleaning my face for me whilst telling me off?" he teased, a cheeky grin plastering his face before he poked his tongue out playfully. As the pair continued to converse, Leo noticed Kaisa reappear next to her charge, taking his wallet and wandering off toward the counter with it. Damn she was good. Leo's gaze followed the Absol for a moment before shifting to Vanim who was now watching Kaisa. "Hey - what are you up to Vanim?"
The canine looked over to the teen for a moment before rolling his eyes. "Well, you two seem to be getting all sappy and we came here to eat so.... That's what we're doing... Without you." he grumbled before turning again to see Kaisa approaching with a basket of different bowls and drinks. Blue eyes rolled back to the raven haired man as Leo sighed and shook his head. "Guess we both have strong willed pokemon now huh?" he mumbled before taking another sip of his drink, hopefully this time no 'milktache' followed.
Vanim meanwhile let loose a loud laughter as Kaisa stated that the food was courtesy of the older 'stupid' human. Someone who finally got him. Humans were stupid, and clearly weak, albeit Leo had shown at least some signs of strength earlier in the day, which he had to admit was impressive. "Well, thank you stupid human." he chuckled before beginning to eat some of the food before him.
"Say - I don't know about you but these two look like they're going to be ogling each other for a while, what do you say to a friendly sparring match? You're a tough cookie,"

Now what Leo wouldnt know would be that the 'nothing is perfect' comment would stig more than would be realised, because while yes Akira would be aware that this were so damn true he had long since realised that he had lost something good as a result. This would be what would come to cause the somber mood to take hold of Akira and seem to come to withdraw further into himself despite the attempts made by himself and Leo to make themselves and each other feel better given their circumstances, rather it would simply result in a metaphorical stab of pain to surge through him further. What a way to remind himself of such things huh? And tehre certainly wouldn'r be much in the way of hiding it but he would use whatever opportunity he could to avoid allowing the younger man from noticing such and thankfully the two small playing pokemon served as a good distraction.
Now it would be a combination of what Leo would have to say next along with the light pat on his hand that would jerk Akira's attention back to the younger male sitting across from him before trying and failing to offer a faint smile, for of course he would not feel the need or desire to smile right now given his current frame of mind. "That's going to be difficult, can be as good as anything but doesn't mean it will lead to any success. especially when I feel lost as to how I can do anything right." Akira would find himself softly admitting in an albeit vague manner as he would set his mug down and loosely folding his arms upon the table and it would at first glance seem as if he were hugging himself while allowing his thoughts to take over.
"The alternative will still likely get me in further trouble, so lets just stick with calling you 'cute' alright? It's better that way." Akira would find himself commenting and dismissing in a minr way before managing a haunted smile in turn and coming to just observe Leo as he laughed and further made his comments, now this would tugged at a nicer memory and cause him o manage a small and genuine smile for an age. "Because I have done something similliar before - in different circumstances and with someone else but still worked, wish could do that again. And in part it's just how I am at times with people I care for." Akira would find himself answering honestly and surprisingly bluntly.
It would have been from here that Akira would too begin to curiosuly observe their respective pokemon before realisation hit when Kaisa returned with her bought goodies for herself and Vanim, a surge of guilt for having ignored them for so long would be what stopped him from making any complaints for having paid for the pairs lunch. "That we do have, certainly seemed like someone knew what they were doing when they brought you home to be paired with me didn't he Kaisa? Otherwise what would I do without you?" Akira found himself speaking and sharing a look with the Absol female as her features softened briefly before she managed to nod in confirmation to what he were meaning.
Now from here would the shulian female leave the two humans be before making her own choices to what she wanted before joining Vanim in enjoying such things, only pausing when the other odd canine would speak and make his proposition. It would cause her to be slightly cautious and hesitant but in time she would seem to manage to slowly nod even if she would have mixed feeling about such things.
< Well that can't do too much harm can it? However I don't tend to battle much so I apologise in advance if it doesn't turn out to be much of a sparring session for you. > Kaisa answered honestly

| LEO XANDER LOCKWARD | APP || PC || PLOTTER | WORDS: 336 || TAG: Akira "Raine" Kaitos | Leo offered the raven haired male a warm smile as he listened to the man speak once more. "You will find a way. It may seem dark now, but a light will appear." he spoke softly in response as he watched the man begin to hug himself. "Do you want an actual hug?" he asked, half playfully, half sincerely. He wanted nothing more, but also knew it probably wasn't the best idea.
When the conversation turned back to the 'milktache' the teen cocked his head slightly as Akira suggested that he would end up in further trouble for his alternative. "Well now I'm really curious" he whined slightly attempting to pull puppy dog eyes before letting loose a soft chuckle. There was that smile, it was infectious as the teen couldn't help but smile wider in response. "There's that pretty smile I remember." he winked before the man began to speak of how he had turned into a doting parent like figure previously. "It's funny, I can picture it so clearly. You'd be an adorable mama bear" he smirked before poking his tongue out playfully.
Watching their respective pokemon as they had successfully hijacked Akira's wallet and sat down for their own food, Leo sighed before turning back to Akira as he spoke again, but this time more toward Kaisa. Their bond was something that could be marvelled at. She was tough, evidently she needed to be to look after her charge.
Vanim eyed the Absol as she began to pick at her own treats before she hesitantly nodded in response to his offer for a sparring match. He wasn't surprised, sure she seemed tough emotionally but she was more of a carer to Akira than a fighter it seemed.
The canine smirked slightly. "That's okay, it's just a bit of fun right? I'll go easy on you if you like" he chuckled before lazily bringing himself up to his paws. "You can even have the first move. But I guess we should take it outside."
