[day 187] she calls out to the man on the street, "sir, can you help me?" (closed)

Who: Hilda, Yukio, Rin (N, AZ, Anna, and Colin later)
Open: Closed
When: Day 187
Where: The Hospital
What: Goddammit, Hilda.
Format: action brackets!
Warnings: A very injured teenager and probably a lot of yelling at her when she's awake.

[ After all of the drama of the previous night, Hilda had learned of what had happened that day before she and N talked, and found out that his castle had appeared on the Skyway. Not just another part of Unova, but a part of Unova that held a lot of memories for N. Memories that ... she knew damn well weren't all good.

She still hurt from their conversation, but she understood now why he was acting the way he was. She still had no idea what to do to fix it, so she focused instead on something she knew she could do: She wanted to see the castle for herself. She had to. It was a something she didn't feel she'd have closure on unless she saw it.

She didn't tell anyone where she was going. She slipped out with Emboar early in the morning after feeding the Pokemon, headed to the Skyway so that the two of them could make their way to the Castle themselves.

Getting there wasn't the problem. It took a while of searching, but they did eventually arrive at the Castle just fine. Hilda had stopped, gazing wide-eyed upon the crumbled remains of a once proud-standing castle. She could hardly will herself to move any more than that ...

... And that was her mistake. Something had begun to move into the castle, and it wasn't happy with the trespassers.

Hilda didn't know what had happened. All she knew in that next moment was pain. Emboar cried out for his trainer as she fell, now bleeding from her head and scraped up and bleeding more on one side from falling and sliding from that attack. The blow to her head made it so she was barely conscious as it was. Emboar cried out for his trainer, and tried to charge at their assailant, only to be knocked back. Hilda was lifted, with the intent of being finished off, when Emboar got up and blew a flamethrower in their attacker's direction. Now caught on fire, it let go of Hilda (who didn't escape that without some burns herself), who fell to the ground. Emboar scrambled to lift Hilda into his arms, taking the opportunity to run for it while it was distracted with fire.

He ran, as fast as he could, worried for his trainer's life ... ]

I truly am sorry that it took me this long to say it... that wasn't fair to you, at all.

[He sniffled, nuzzling his cheek up against her hand.]

I could disregard the entire world and be content, but if you weren't in my life I-... I don't know what I would do.

[That was surprisingly comforting to him. For one who was still getting used to physical contact and affection, he found that simple motion to be what he needed to calm his tears.]

We're the same in that... I spent so much of my life in the company of Pokemon and no one else, and now I can't imagine a day without you near me.

[He smiled against her hand, eyes closed for the moment.]

I can stay in the other bed here, if you'd like.

AZ is capable of caring for them. If the eggs start hatching, he can come get me. I should... probably go back and get a few things for us anyway.

[Since she's bound to be there a couple of days at least.]

... they're worried. Zoura more than Darumaka. She's been crying a lot. Darumaka just wants to see you home and well.

[Hilda stop that.]

I could bring her by later. Would that be alright?

Yukio?

[That's not a name N is familiar with, and it makes him curious. Was he some one in charge of the hospital now?]

Well... you're concerned about her. That's natural, isn't it?

... oh. The cook girl with the tail. I see.

[Does Yukio have a tail?

That's not important.]


You care for her like a child, and she sees you as a mother. It's only to be expected with that in mind.

Ah--...

[Well his face certainly got red...]

I... suppose... [achem] Pokemon are easier for me to deal with, at least...

[N is just fine with that.]

I... suppose... this makes us the new day care couple then?

Orphanage would be more apropos, wouldn't it?

[It was better than them being alone, at the very least. And being an "orphanage" didn't necessarily mean it was a bad thing for them.]

You did say you gave... - Rin, was it? - a Tepig egg, right?

[personal profile] unwrittenformula 2014-05-28 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
... oh.

[He wasn't expecting that, but... alright.]

You know I don't like trainers much.

[But--]

We are living in a world that is not our own recovering from the end of all things. These are people who have never seen a Pokemon until we came along. I'm willing to put away my... usual concerns in hopes that these people will be the sort of trainers I have always hoped the people in Unova would be.

[Kind, understanding, companions more than "better than" the creatures they are coming to care for.

He smiles at Hilda then, squeezing her hand.]


Trainers like you.

I'll trust your judgement on that then.
