009. [video/action]

[When the feed comes on, Takeru's sitting inside a small cafe. Out of all his Pokemon, only his Emolga's out of his pokeball and is sitting on the table beside him. On the chair beside the blond, however, sits a nicely wrapped egg. But the focus remains on Takeru's gentle and smiling face.]

I can't believe another year's fast approaching. Seems like only yesterday I arrived in this place. [A lopsided smile.] It's weird, I feel old. [This is where Takeru chuckles to himself.]

Anyway, in light with the approaching new year, I'd like to know if you guys already know your resolutions? I know some doesn't make one, but for the ones who do, what are yours?

[A charming, wide smile follows after.] Only if you'd like to tell, of course.

[And with that, he ends the public video feed only to send a private one to Hikari.]


[Private;]

Hey, Hikari-chan! [The most charming smile is only for you, girlfriend.] Are you busy today? I know I said I'd go train by myself for a while, but um, I lied. [A sheepish chuckle as he rubs the back of his neck. Emolga just looks at him and sighs.] Sorry about that.

Anyway, if you're not busy, I'll be waiting for you here in the cafe. Everything's on me.

[Forgive your boyfriend for failing you when it comes to a surprise as he winks before turning off his Gear.]

[End Private;]


[ooc: forward-dated to this morning!]

[She blushes a bit.]

Maybe? But even so, we're in public right now. And I can feed myself, you know!

[hopeboy]

[At her response, he just smiles.]

Alright, alright. Maybe when we go on a picnic together with Miyako-san some time, I'll do that. [Of course, he's still teasing but he wouldn't mind trying too.]

[Hikari just giggles at that, before she goes to take another bite of her food.]

[action]

[hopeboy]

Though, I wonder if Miyako-san will get jealous. [Because no more Ken. :(]

[chosen_light_child]

[Hikari blinked, before frowning a bit.]

I hope not...

[action]

[hopeboy]

Then, I'm sure she'll understand. [While throwing a fit on how jealous she is lol. Takeru takes another bite of his food before speaking up again.] Anyway, what are your plans for later?

[chosen_light_child]

[Hikari shrugged.]

Honestly, I didn't really have any at all.

[action]

[hopeboy]

We can spend the whole day together, then! How's that?

[action]

[chosen_light_child]

Sounds wonderful!

[action]

[hopeboy]

[Hmmm]

I don't know what we should do, though. [Exploring? Training?]

[action]

[chosen_light_child]

... Me either.

You'd think it'd not be that hard to think of something to do.

[action]

[hopeboy]

Yeah, especially between us.

[A sheepish chuckle.] Maybe we can go exploring? I'm sure we can find something to do.

[action]

[chosen_light_child]

Sure. That sounds great to me.
