[🌟] - ☆ ・‥… “ You are absolutely correct, Kou! So! I asked myself, how do I fully show that my sleeves are empty starting now? “ barry shook his elbows as physical proof and before holding kouki’s scrutinizing gaze with his own wide, sparkling eyes.

☆ ・‥… “ With a peace offering of my starting anew~ Come on, you promised to try food that I worked soo hard on~ “ as if to further imply the safety of his…creations, barry took another bite of his apple, making sure to take a healthy chomp with added ‘mmm delish!’ sound effects.

“Uh huh...” There he goes with those sparkling puppy dog eyes and sweet words. Kouki holds the same expression but it does waver a moment, their brows furrowing. "To be honest, I can’t see you giving up pranks in the first place.” It’s not like him at all.

If this isn’t a prank, he’ll be disappointed... if it is, he’ll still be disappointed. Should they just play along? It can’t be that bad, can it?

“You promise this is just a regular caramel apple?” Kouki picks it up by the stick and points it to Barry accusingly. Looks like they might really eat it. If it were anyone other than Barry, they wouldn’t be doing this.

[🌟] - ☆ ・‥… “Kouuukkii~” Barry’s head pops up from Kouki’s doorway and he holds up a small sliver platter with two ‘caramel apples’ sitting innocently on it. The calendar on everyone’s poketech said 4/1, but Barry only had 'pure’ intentions. Besides, every year he played pranks on everyone he knew and it gets predictable.

☆ ・‥… “I know what you’re thinking, and no, I’m turning over a new leaf, extending my olive branch- see here!“ takes a bite out of an apple. it’s an apple! only…the last one was an onion…

#the face of disappointment that kouki does so well #pokethread #juncity

“... Yes, Barry?” They don’t look so amused when their friend shows up, being that it’s April Fool’s Day and he’s always pulling pranks. Kouki can sense shifts between emotions but it’s really hard to differentiate between pure happiness and the mischievous happiness that comes with pulling a practical joke. They usually end up falling for it one way or another ( the minute Barry whips out something like ‘don’t you trust me?’ they cave )--- though a few times they’ve gotten through unscathed.

“Don’t you think it’s suspicious to start your ‘no pranking’ streak by bringing food over on April Fool’s Day?” Kouki leans forward to inspect the other caramel ‘apple’ but it’s impossible to see what’s inside past the thick outer coating.

Barry: You hear that little ghost girl? Me and Kouki own your Chateau!

Kouki: No— No don’t loop me into your shit. Stop looping me— I hate when you do this in the haunted places—

Barry: Well then tell them! Tell them you’re not part of this!

Kouki, pointing: I’m not part of his little charade.

Barry: You’re talking to the ghost now.

Kouki: I see what you’ve done…

Barry: It’s ghost entrapment.

#ITS OK im late too #ONIGIRI RAVE #pokethread #juncity

[🌟] - best friends huh. barry couldn’t tell what that look meant, but he smiled warmly all the same. he was about to comment further, but found more interest at kouki’s camera.

an idea!

the kitchen light dimmed and brightened which each click of kouki’s phone; it was barry in his natural hype-man habitat making good use of the light switches. if anyone walked in without context, they would’ve witnessed a rave photo-shoot and a wild barry jumping on the couch. who knew taking photos could be so much fun?

he claps once and rubs his hand together in glee at the go, his sleeve just a tad damp from constantly wiping his salivating mouth, gross!, and stopped the light show. the house shook a little at his clumsy ~~trip~~ stomp over to the table.

☆ ・‥… “way ahead of you!” ・‥…━━━☆ and he loomed over the plate ready to grab his face. he agrees and brings a point finger up. ☆ ・‥… “a perfect lunch always has to follow with perfect desert, as I always say!” ・‥…━━━☆

just as he was about to chomp down onigiri barry’s neck, he recalled something and started to laugh. ☆ ・‥… “you know, this is kinda gruesomely funny if you think about it. I’m eatin’ my own face like that one anime! Watch me!” ・‥…━━━☆

barry threw back his head, his mouth open wide like the gaping jaws of some kinda of horrid beast. a gurgle was also heard. his hand rose the onigiri high into the air, directly over his mouth.

☆ ・‥… “I’m hangry!” ・‥…━━━☆ he bellowed and mini barry fell-

onto barry’s nose! ☆ ・‥… “Ack! Noooo! My baby!” ・‥…━━━☆ and continued to fall over his cheek, some pieces breaking off to find refugee in his scarf and down his shirt. the rest plopped onto the floor. comedic silence followed.

barry looked up at kouki, his rice cheeks red and he laughed sheepishly. ☆ ・‥… “Whoops, that’s not how it was supposed to go.” ・‥…━━━☆ and he bent down to pick the glob of rice off the floor, laughter bubbling from within.

It was hard to keep focused and not laugh when Barry started turning the lights on and off. In the end Kouki didn’t bother to keep it in. Some of the photos ended up being too dark but that’s the benefit of taking so many! Pretend photo shoots are fun and that’s the most important thing.

“Dessert comes after dinner, Barry...” They only say that to tease him a little, watching the other over their shoulder as he loudly clambers his way over to start eating as fast as possible.

When they open the oven door and turn off the heat, their attention is called for once again. With an amused smirk, they oblige. How could Kouki miss out on watching their best friend dramatically eat the onigiri version of himself?

Without missing a beat, they pull out their phone a second time and take some photos of the act ( these are important memories! ). The last photo is blurry, catching the onigiri in mid-descent, all smushed on Barry’s face. Kouki’s mouth makes an ‘o’ shape, watching the tragedy unfold silently. They hadn’t considered it at the time but the way the rice had been formed to a human-esque shape would have made it more prone to breaking.

Speaking of bashful Barry being cute...

“Pfffahaha...!” Kouki places a hand on their chest as they burst out in laughter along with their friend. The phone gets shoved away and replaced with oven mitts so they can take out the tray of poffins. With those left on the stove to cool, they’re able to free their hands entirely to do some damage control. “Look at you, it’s like you’re covered in rice snow.”

Each grain of rice is picked off of Barry with care. Maybe it would be more efficient to have him shake off and simply sweep the floor but a method this doting and time consuming is practically expected of Kouki at this point. If asked they’d say it’s to not get any more rice on the floor than they have to.

“To me that looked like the plot twist where the humans fight back against the monsters attacking them and win. Everyone likes to see the underdog come out on top.” Onigiri Barry sacrificed his life for the other onigiri trio... What a legend. “I’m sure Hikari wouldn’t mind if you ate the rice version of her instead.” They might have been inclined to make things in sets of three but at the moment it’s just the two of them, so at least they’ll get an even share.

[🌟] - ☆ ・‥… “heh its nothing, i just have an eye for matchmaking.” ・‥…━━━☆ do you really. ☆ ・‥… “-and since love is in the air, I thought why not add another member to the fami-” ・‥…━━━☆

all thoughts and words halt when the tone of uncertainty finally sinks in; a flash of cold realization as he remembered something very important, something that he should have known since the beginning, something that was so obvious that barry almost banged his head on a palm tree.

Keep reading

Apple grabs the phone with its ghostly void hands and Kouki shivers, letting go immediately. Their hand feels strange and cold for a moment from the contact, prompting them to start shaking it around the place to dispel the sensation.

“See... me?” Ghost pokemon that can repeat human speech? The heebie jeebies are off the charts right now. “See me? See me! Me Apple...” It sounds like its trying to say that Barry should come quick. More indistinguishable squeaks follow before it hugs the phone.

At the mention of Kouki’s name, the Mimikyu turns to them and watches a while. It’s so hard to keep eye contact with a straight face. Kouki’s uneasiness is fully visible in their eyes.

“Kou... ... ki... ... See... me?”

Oh, Arceus...

“Y-Your name is Apple, huh? I... Yeah, I’ll take care of you. Don’t worry...” It’s not like they were going to abandon this pokemon or stick it into a PC until Barry arrived. Especially since its only a baby, it needs the attention now more than ever. “My mom will too.” As in, will probably be the mediator until they’re able to get used to this.

Their friend’s somber and apologetic tone brings both of them to complete silence. The one downside to talking on the phone was that Kouki couldn’t really feel how the person on the other end was feeling. The technological barrier makes things difficult. Had they been face to face, they probably would have caught onto Barry’s descent into guilt a lot sooner. Now it was glaringly obvious.

Of course, the responsible side of Kouki knows that his remorse is a good thing. Sending over a kind of pokemon that Kouki was afraid of and while it was still so attached to Barry wasn’t a very thoughtful thing to do. His heart was in the right place, as it always is, but he failed to properly consider their feelings.

But the other half of Kouki, the side that spoils their best friend a ridiculous amount and hates for him to be sad, was kind of hoping Barry might not notice the mistake that he’d made. He just wanted to do something sweet for Valentine’s Day... He didn’t mean it...

“I understand, don’t worry. I know that you just wanted to be kind. With time, I’m sure we could be good friends.” They carefully think over their choice of words before continuing. “When mistakes happen and they can’t be changed... the most important part is how you deal with it afterwards. You don’t think before you leap but you have a big heart. I know you’ll be able to do the right thing and make it up to Apple.” They make no mention of the mini heart attack they went through ( ... that hasn’t really stopped ).

#pokethread #juncity #instamon omg...#sounds like the name of a digimon

[🌟] - barry rubbed his nose as he always did when he felt bashful. not alot of people knew that when faced with geuine, loving praise barry doesn’t know how to handle it- he turns to mush and gets a bit flustered before covering it up with a joke or a harruah.

☆ ・‥… “picture? oh right, for memories.” ・‥…━━━☆ for a moment, barry forgot kouki didn’t really use any social media; he thought they were going to take a picture for Instamon- a popular photo sharing platform- and barry was going to susgest certain types of filters and stickers to use. maybe he should introduce the app to them soon.

he gasps and waves his arms around excitedly. ☆ ・‥… “Koukiiiiiiiii! Aercus, I knew you were a chef, but this just robs the cake! You had to know what I was making- eh, but if you really didn’t then-! Coincidence? I think so!” ・‥…━━━☆

he gets in close to admire the details and take a whiff at the peanut butter- oh man, was that chocolate inside as well? he grins up at kouki, his voice a little teasing

☆ ・‥… “how’d you know i like my peanut butter with some good ol’ savory chocolate? read my mind or something?” ・‥…━━━☆ an quick idea pops in his mind. barry takes the onigiri and matches the trainer with their respective pokemon, placing them side by side.

Barry is really cute when he’s bashful. In this case, it seems like he’s been caught speechless and Kouki can’t help but laugh just a little. It’s completely out of adoration though.

They wouldn’t at all consider themself a photographer but they did like to take photos. Not of themself but rather of their friends, pokemon and the many creations they make. Anything and everything that they didn’t want to someday forget about. On days when they were lonely, or perhaps freaking out late at night, they could turn to their phone gallery for comfort.

“I made sure not to peek over. Especially not at the decorating... so I had no clue.” Kouki crosses their heart with their index finger, the smile on their face hurting their cheeks at this point. Watching their friend flapping around joyfully and fawning over the little sandwiches they made was absolutely heartwarming. “I was hoping you’d like it.” They tuck their hands behind their back and sway slightly.

“I don’t have to read your mind to figure out what your favorite foods are... Best friends just know those sorts of things.” He was probably poking fun at the fact that they remembered such a detail but it’s not like it’s a huge deal or anything... Gosh... Kouki averts their gaze for a moment, pursing their lips before focusing their attention on what Barry’s doing to the food. “... That’s a cute idea. It’s perfect for the photo. Hang on---”

After pulling out their phone from their pants pocket they open the camera feature and get a shot of their masterpieces. Maybe just one more, just because. And then another... And another...

Then, the oven timer dings. That’s probably enough photos now.

“Okay, you can start eating. I’ll get the poffins out so they can cool in the meantime.” They grab a pair of oven mitts and put the hot tray on top of the stove. The pastries are steaming, filling the room with their smell. “That’ll be a nice dessert, huh?” Kouki sounds happy about they came out. Most of them would be for their pokemon of course, but after all that work they’ve earned at least one each.

{ just a small PSA to say that another year of uni will be starting up for me in a few days and especially because i have a fair bit of rp blogs to run now i will be slow.

some blogs may end up more active than others at different times (ie. what i have the muse for) and i may not always have the time / motivation to write at all anywhere.

so that is to say, thank you in advance for being patient with me. i keep everything drafted so i wont forget but of course mistakes happen so if you suspect that i have missed something of yours, i encourage you to ask.

after reblogging this to all my blogs, ill be putting this in all rules pages so this should ideally be my only post on the subject. im always open to IMs (tho i reply fastest on fireredrules because thats the account im logged into on mobile) and i love getting things in my inbox too. even if im busy, you wouldnt be bothering me!! thats all <3 }

Anonymous asked:

A parade of Ducklett make their way towards you, quacking happily in unison. Each one adorned with a crown of bright lilies, they encircle you as they file in one by one forming several rings moving both clockwise and counter clockwise. Soon they stop, wings raised and fluttering as if they are presenting you as a prize, before long petals drop from the sky, a trio of Swanna showering them upon you. The performance reaches its climax when the trio descend and present you with warm sweet bread.

Kouki’s face lights up at the sight of a bunch of tiny Ducklett. They’d never seen this pokemon before but they look so cute! All their happiness resonates with them and creates an overall pleasant atmosphere that quite literally surrounds them. Admittedly, they have no idea what these pokemon are doing but they know that their intentions are good, so they’re happy to crouch down near the ground and watch.

At what seems to be nearing the end of their dance, they shake their wings towards Kouki. They point at themself in confusion, distracted only when they feel something landing on them. It’s a petal? There’s another... and another! Wow, they’re really raining down!

Looking up, the trainer sees what they can only assume is the Ducklett’s evolution flying above them. The three birds soon land and offer Kouki sweet bread as some sort of gift. How interesting!

“That was great!” They clap for the Ducklett and Swanna before taking the bread with a bow. “Thank you, I really enjoyed your performance.”

#juncity #awwwwwwwwwwww #i lvoe it!!#pokethread

[🌟] - ever the playful spirit, barry attempted to peek over kouki’s shoulder; to catch them slippin’ but found they already anticipated this as their arms covered whatever they made. he huffs jokingly but retreats to his work without a compliant- barry partly did that to distract kouki from seeing what he was holding!

a quizzical eye ran over what he had so far. he had alot of time to spare and kouki vocalized their need for more time as well, giving barry a chance to let his creative side show. only, the more he looked at the rice squares the harder it was to visualize the details.

ah! whatever! abstract art was a thing, right? so barry tackled right into it, discarding pieces of ripped seaweed he wasn’t satisfied with and sticking the ones he liked on. sure it didn’t have precise detail, but it had the makings of some Frankenstein-esque riceball.

pure mad creation. he let out an evil chuckle to match with his genius plan.

it didn’t take long for him to be satisfied with how it looked even though there were only two striking details. three onigiris for three scarf besties: selective, but still madly shredded seaweed made up the hair and choice cuts from various vegetables held some resemblance to the scarves they wore- pink ham for hikari, pale pickled radish for kouki, and the skin of a cucumber for his own. if it wasn’t for the color variations, none of them would have been distinguishable

he was finished long before kouki, but he took some time to sprinkle sesame seeds and other seasoning for that mouth-watering flavor! cleaning his hands in the sink once more was the proverbial, crossed the finish line moment and he perked up when kouki declared their finish as well.

“ I’ve been ready! “

“ I guess I’ll start us off, yeah? “ barry brandished his paper plate with all the acting of a performing masters chef and a dramatic ‘drum roll please!’.

with his previous chef’s persona back on, barry did his trademark wink, finger gun, and a tsk and gently laid the plate in front of kouki.

“ I give you~! Riceballs with the striking resemblances of only-the-coolest-kids-known-in-Sinnoh named, Hikari, Kouki aaaaand!,” he pauses, before declaring. “-Jun! It’s to keep the theme consistent.” He quickly adds with only a tiniest hint of a blush.

Finally it’s time to show what they’ve made! Usually at this part in a cooking show there’s a lot of anticipation for what the judges will say and who will be eliminated... but honestly, that pales in comparison to this.

Kouki nods eagerly when Barry offers to go first. They had no idea what to expect, since they hadn’t peeked over even once. Whatever it was though, it was sure to be amazing. Barry wasn’t one to do things halfheartedly.

A wink and a fingergun, with a tsk to boot ( is this going to become a habit? ). This time around, they can’t help but laugh--- though it’s more of a short giggle.

The reveal of the riceballs has Kouki stunned. It’s the three of them! The little colorful ‘scarves’ is what tips them off, along with Barry’s announcement. That’s so adorable! It’s funny how they both ended up doing something revolving around their trio. They really are connected, huh?

“Aw, Jun.” They smile at the use of the other’s given name. “You really outdid yourself, I love it!” Here come the dimples. When this whole baking session started they never thought it’d go down this direction but they’re so happy it did. Being the big sap they are, they’re absolutely touched! Maybe they should exchange meals like this more often.

“I’ll have to take a picture of this before I eat it.” Not only to save forever but also to send to Hikari.

The onigiri is oddly shaped and the decoration is certainly ‘avant garde’ but since it’s something their friend made, it’s automatically better than any they’ve had before. Not that they’ve tasted it yet... hopefully it’s good in that regard!

“My turn, then? I can’t eat yours with my arms covering this so... here you go!” Kouki stands up straight, putting their hands aside to reveal their chocolate and peanut butter Sinnoh starter sandwiches. Next to the plate is the two jars of spread for Barry to take home. “I didn’t mean to but it matches yours, huh? It’s us and our starters.” They point at the two plates as they speak.

[🌟] - Taptaptap! [cont. from here!] @kousprit

His fingers drummed out a steady beat, impatience and quite loud over the hum of the malasada shop’s air-conditioner. It shouldn’t have taken this long for a simple gift to set up! Now his element of surprise was completely and utterly ruined the moment he received a text from the delivery man: Delayed package. (because who expects a mailman to send and set up a present at 2am in the morning???? Barry was going to FINE the whole company for this!!)

At least today, Barry had nothing much planned except for a couple of battles, chatting with Kouki, and tanning in the sun for that beautiful golden glow, when finally- FINALLY the email lit up his phone that the package was set and ready to be received. Fingers flew over the screen, demanding a photo first. Quality check! Double quality check! A third photo from another angle aaand…!

[Coffee || 7am ]: OUTSIDE1 !! YOU MAY EXIT YOUR PRISON AND RECEIVE THE GOODS YOUR ROYALTY!!!

He snickered at their response and waited for their reaction with a bite from his fifth malasada. And they reacted as he predicted. To Barry, those words were all he needed to lighten his mood and forget about the delivery service’s fines.

[Coffee || 7:04am ]: Heheh! A magician never reveals his secret! I pulled some heart strings here and there, no buizel!

[Coffee || 7:04am ]: Say hi to the fella for me! I’m sure he’ll miss the amazing Barry but, I think you guys will really hit it off!

The phone clatters on the table as Barry takes this moment to stuff the remaining seventh malasada into his mouth. He was so sure Kouki was jumping up and down with joy, hugging the pokemon, exclaiming what a wonderful friend he, Barry Kramer, was and…

…And they haven’t texted in a while? Barry clicks his phone back on and frowns. Where’s their text with all the praise?

Oh! Kouki is so overwhelmed with happiness, they’re unable to text and probably is tearing up with emotion. He laughs and is about to dial Kouki’s number when-

‘♪ TO THE!! LIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIITS!! ! ♪’

Barry quickly answered with a hearty ‘Hellllloooooooo!’, ready to hear joyful exaltation, but he pauses when he hears their frightened tone.

“Huh? Oh that’s right!” Of course! They’ve never been to Alola or seen the pokemon there! “It’s called a Mimikyu! I caught the little guy in this abandoned shopping mall, well, maybe not caught it kinda crawled into my bag to steal my food, and then I caught it!”

Barry takes a deep breath and continues without losing a beat.

“Now don’t let the little guy alone for too long! I think it’s a baby and it loves being carried, loves soft things as well! And food. Lots and lots of food, it’s a growing pokemon after-all!”

And he grins a goofy little grin even though Kouki can’t see them.
