⠀⠀ 𝓃agito’s expression turned remorseful. “ we got off on the wrong foot, but .. i can assure you that i don’t mean any harm .. you have my word. ”
“ by the way, wren, would you mind taking an itty, bitty step to your left for me .ᐣ ”
⠀
⠀
Wren rubs the back of the Happiny's head, soothing it.
"It's... It's alright. But she's just a baby, keep in mind. As a trainer, your pokemon look to you. They gotta trust you, and feel safe and loved."
They look down at the pokemon who had started to calm down.

⠀⠀“ 𝓈orry .. that wasn’t what i meant at all. i suppose i got carried away .. when i’m this happy, all sorts of thoughtless things have a way of slipping out. ”

⠀⠀“ 𝒶h .ᐟ ” his eyes lit up at the sight, and he crouched down to meet his new little companion, hands idly resting against his thighs as he smiled.
given he hadn’t paid the screen much attention, this came as a pleasant surprise to him. “ it’s going to die .. ”
⠀
⠀
Out comes Happiny! It's little, looking up at Nagito curiously. She tilts her head to the side, waddling up to him.
Wren grins. "That's how you send her out!"
⠀
⠀
( rightfully so, he seemed to
be in a state of utter despair.
to find oneself drenched in
blood and disoriented with-
out clear reason, 𝙬𝙚𝙡𝙡, it left
very little to the imagination. )
does .. this happen often .ᐣ
( he inquired, a snowy brow
quirking upward. )
⠀
⠀
( rubbing his ears , trying to
figure out what the source ..
was , how it happened — it
may have been fireworks .
he dropped his beret ,
stuttering and stumbling upon
words . )
ah — ah ' m sorry ..
ah' really am .
⠀
⠀
( at the mention of the
very reason for their little
“ voyage, ” if you will, he
hummed in acknowledge-
ment. ) you’re right. let’s.
( he continued on ahead,
this time with a visible pep
in his step. he was getting
tingly thinking about the
misery awaiting him .. )
⠀
⠀
⠀
⠀
( nagito clasped his hands
together once they were
released. ) ah .. to think
someone else could speak
so fondly of contradiction ..
what extraordinary fortune
has found me today .ᐣ ⬊
⠀
⠀
( Waving a pointed finger to him, she relaxes, flipping a lock of her red hair. )
Now then! We were not supposed to get some refreshments together?
( He is simply so inspiring! )
⠀
⠀
the stage befits you .. that
is so true ..
a flower would never be
called beautiful if it bloom-
ed in a world already over-
flowing with perfection .ᐟ
beauty begs for contrast.
hope begs for despair ..
( he added, further playing
along enthusiastically. ) ⬊
⠀
⠀
⠀
( she was so incredibly awe-inspiring .ᐟ )
ah .. i was thinking the same
thing, but i’m glad that you
said it first .. i thought it
would be insulting.
.. even if it were a dreadful
nickname, i’d still accept it
if it came from you. call me
whatever you’d like .ᐟ
⠀

⠀
⠀
( the warmth of her hands
caught him completely off
guard. his lips parted, but
nothing came out at first. )
( only after a quiet laugh
escaped him did his fingers
gently curl around hers, an
earnest smile softening his
features .. ) ⬊
⠀
⠀
the other.
( She laughs, grabbing his hands in hers, looking straight into his eyes with shimmering enthusiasm, as her own seagreen eyes are glowing. )
I like you! You absolutely get me, you poet! Koma-kun! Can I call you that? May I?
⠀
⠀
wanting everyone to smile
together isn’t selfish .. it’s
a beautiful hope. if you’re
truly willing to accept me,
then i won’t reject such an
incredible display of kind-
ness ..
thank you .. i’ll be doing my
absolute best to become
worthy of calling you my
friend. ⬊
