5 Viva Los Numeros!

2 We aren't going to stop, Y'know.

Robert let a smile out at Shiro's words while the tears started to dry, while his mind battled itself at what went with them. While some of him argued with that part that he said he 'was weak,' and another part of him shocked that Anna would give him such a radical chance... There was still a part of it, which his heart sided with, to hope against hope for such a dream. If miracles could happen, even just this once, that would be all he needed. He whipped his eyes and moved that hand up in a fist-pump fashion. "Right, Shiro! No matter what, I will cheer you on to victory!" Kiai watched the current embrace, unsure himself as to what will happen. Sure, he knew the attachment that those two had, but the fierce competition would obviously make such a hope a vast miracle. "So... I guess we'll just go back to work for now. And if you need a break for any reason what-so-ever, just go and I'll handle things here, okay?"

28 ^So... Tauros 'sheet'.

23 Yes, I get it's a joke, that's why those Shiny Magnemite pictures were posted before. Just poking fun at evil humor.

From what Bfroger has been saying, he'll have to atleast be on hiatus(school reasons).So yeah, unless he's actually throwing us all through a loop, he'll leave for atleast awhile.Edit: Ment to say that more as 'unless things were covered somehow, yes he'll be out for a while,' but since it's been copied already, this side-edit seems like the better solution.

20 And trust me, there are some ways to counter even the most OP-ness. Trust me on this little fact: Even if you went magnetic-field TX-101(obviously won't happen as a Magnemite), Kiai could use Copycat to use any of his own moves to take that down. Ask me how if you don't actually believe me.

Robert While Robert was trying his best to stay strong, his attempt at showing all his sadness turned into pure shock when he heard Shiro's later comment, tears welling up in his eyes. "Shiro... You actually think I would stop being your friend just for something you can't control? Really?" Tears were just streaming down his face, but no matter what, Shiro was the one that this affected most, he had to support him through all of this. Putting a hand on Shiro's shoulder, he spoke clearly despite what was happening. "Listen, Shiro, I want to make this very clear; Your own reactions make it very obvious that you will have to go, but you don't have enough control over it to try and change that. No one in their right mind would begrudge you for that. And trust me, as long as there is some way, any way that I will be able to stay in touch with you, I WILL." While the tears were slowed, his eyes did their best to get Shiro to trust him, that he would do whatever he had to. Parents "Good to hear that, then." Just as he was getting the money out, he found that Akako was busy looking over what else the shop had to offer, following Mareek's suggestion, though she had her phone out aswell. "What are you doing, honey? It's not like the stuff we're buying aren't souvenirs enough." She simply sighed facepalming as if these were Vacation photo's. "No, I'm just sending examples to the regulars at Dewford Hall. Trust me, whether they think of them as souveniors or not, I'm sure that a lot of them will want us to bring something back for them." With a laugh between the two, Will was just lucky that they skipped a luggage-problem by sailing them over himself.

18 ... *sigh* even when TX-101 is forced to be nerfed, he's still feared by people.

14 Yes, either promise eachother to meet afterwards or try your hardest (without being cheap) to meet in the tournament.

8 No... He understands WHAT you are saying, he just doesn't agree.

Parents Having given the money in exchange for the Kyogre carving, Will had the solid idea of what he wanted to see, before having his focus be snapped away by Raiza's crashing. He was quite suprised by how Mareek had made the accident into a positive for his products, causing a laugh before he spoke. "Well, that's one way to make something good out of that. Now, about your crafts, I have a certain thing in my head that I'm very sure would be... Unlikely to exist. What I would just love to get is, around the same size of the Kyogre one, a Hariyama with a big wave behind it. If you could make that, I'll pay whatever it would cost."

5 Deep emotions all around.

Robert was simply suprised by Anna's arrival, but just let it off to a family member, but it was atleast suprising to see the two interact with such radical differences. What really left an imprint on him was what she said after Shiro got loose from her grip. 'Sure, Shiro wasn't the most the most active of people, maybe he was even down on himself when he first came here, but that doesn't just mean- Wait, what did she just say? Leave this all behind?!' Before he could even know what she meant, let alone even accept some her handshake, she pulled it back and said she had to see Professor Redwood. 'Wait, if that's true, then... No, no it can't be. S-she must just be messing with Shiro, yes. T-that makes sense, but... No, she can't be serious. He's been meeting new people, growing out his shell, and...' While Robert was busy trying to comprehend all that had just happened, Kiai could easily sense Robert's discomfort, as if he would break out and start crying the moment his mind came to the sick realization... But, felt the emotions bouncing around in his head slow, close to even stopping. 'Hmm, so this IS what he did do normally. Just holding up his emotions, hoping that he could just take care of them later. Would certainly explain his LAST blow-up a while ago.' With a deep sigh, Robert looked at Shiro, who seemed to be in just as much thought. "Shiro, if you could please, tell me what she meant. Are you really... Really...." With all his effort, he was doing his best to be strong in this, give some kind of support to the one person it affected the most.

@Stratos: You said that there were carvings requests in the first IC post, right? If that's something I can pull from, Will is going to have a very 'home' idea that he'll be requesting. (That is, of course, if I understood the part about "the tray of request carvings" correctly.)

Robert When Sissy had left with the bowls of Ramen, Robert had simply just waved 'see yah' and went back to work, trying to make sense of it all. Sure they seemed like good friends, but what had just happened, he wasn't really sure. His mind tried reasoning it as just a 'friendly joke,' but there were so many points against it that even he didn't truely believe that. After a while, He just decided that if something like that happened again, he WOULD get an answer. Not long after coming to that conclusion, he heard the announcement about the upcoming battles. He heard his name called out in Block A, not sure of his first opponent of Laura, but the fact that he and Kenny were in the same block was pretty suprising to him. But what suprised him even further was Block B, and how it contained Shiro, Alvin AND Henry. Even by the end, though a few ideas of certain competitors passed as it went, his ears immediately recognized that Block G had contained Sissy, and as far as he remembered to be Claude's 'actual name,' Kyle. Robert turned to Shiro, having waited until the full announcement had ended. "So, it seem everyone has their own big challenges they'll have to cover on the way. Let's do our very best and show them what we can do." Parents "Ahahah, so he's even in the first group. Guess we'll get to see what he's become straight away!" With a fist pump of excitement coming from Will, Akako simply did the same with just as much energy. "Yes, we will see what he is capable of. Hopefully the 'separation' did what he expected to happen." As the excitement had died down a bit, they went back to looking around the festival for something else to do apart from festival food. After awhile, they eventually found themselves inside of Mareek's stall, looking at the wooden craftings. What truely caught their eye were wooded effigies of certain pokemon, mainly legendaries. Akako moved her attention towards Mareek, who she assumed was one of the students in charge it this stand. "Excuse me, but by any chance do you have one of Kyogre?" She awaited Mareek's reply, Will's mind was racing, very certain that he didn't see the one Pokemon he was looking for, rubbing his chin wondering whether or not this was the extent of what was available.

1920 Okay then.

1918 And would you accept the other outcome aswell?

1916 Does TX-101 look like the face of mercy? And this is a DeviantArtist's Shiny Magnemite. Funny on it's own.

1904 Good to see it done...
