“ alright. suppose an apology is due. maybe, it was a little harsh to immediately assume you were hostile or malicious, so that's on me. but so far we've met someone who seems to hold very little self preservation, and then his polar opposite who seems to...be interesting enough. i didn't know what to expect from you, honestly. assuming the worst was evidently not the best course of action, though.”
“It’s… It’s understandable. I can’t say it’s okay, but I get it. It’s a dangerous world out here, sometimes… Especially exploring it all on your own. It’s fair to approach weird people with some wariness.
"Hah, you really are sweet when you want to be. I accept your apology- thank you.”
“… And, uh, like I said- you being anomalous is theorywork. I made some hasty assumptions about you, too… What I gather is just equivalent to… Weird vibes??”
“There’s something about you that’s just inherently hard to place. A kind of… Haziness, that makes everything about you unclear. It’s like your entire existence is fogged over, even though it should be easy to tell. Even having seen tangible records, it’s like… Even now, three different names are fighting for a place in my mind when I try to recall it.”
“Kind of unnerving, but it hasn’t caused problems- yet. And if it’s just a feeling, that shouldn’t change. But it’s an easy to miss thing that I have to pay close attention to for these studies.”
“… In the end, in spite of my misgivings, it isn’t fair for me to tell you what to do. You’re a lot stronger than I am. It’s your choice to pursue this- but I do hope I can be someone you can turn to at any point. Help, advice, guidance, and especially protection… Just say the word. I’ll be there.”
“… Oh! Yes, I do! Though, I don’t know if you’d ever get to hear from him…”
“My brother, Red… He’s a notorious recluse. After the Kanto Championship, he ran off to Gods-know-where. I know he’s not dead, if it’s any consolation. He only shows up for really important Kanto-Champion stuff. I assume it’s just to defend his title or something.”
“Hell if I know, though. You can never really tell what’s going on behind those eyes.”
