TAGS koa inaku WORDS 776 NOTES she's back, bro, and she's up to her shenanigans, again lol
“Alright, Pyro, ready?” a young woman questioned the massive Arcanine in front of her. Similar to her Lucario, she had found a harness for him as well, but this one wasn’t designed for just pulling around a person on a board. This one was for a sled. The show dog snorted in displeasure at his trainer’s shenanigans, looking at her with an irritated glare. Having been originally owned by a coordinator, Pyro was raised for the stage, not for thrills and adventures. Granted, he did genuinely enjoy these kinds of shenanigans that his trainer put him in. If it came down to it, he’d be willing to do really anything for her if she asked it of him.
“C’mon, its gonna be pretty fun” she chimed, grinning at the Arcanine with that charming grin of hers. When he still looked at her with a look of disdain, Ricki’s grin turned into a pair of pouty puppy dog eyes. “Pyro” she whined, before the Arcanine sighed and looked away from her. He grunted, again, and gave a nod, signaling he was ready to go. At that response, Ricki immediately brightened back up and nearly tackled her Pokémon. He didn’t even stumble in response, easily standing his ground as she plowed right into him. Pyro’s tail flicked back and forth slowly, before coming to a gentle stop when Ricki let go of him.
Rushing around the Arcanine, Ricki picked up the reins for the sled and scrambled onto the platform for the driver. On the sled was not much, just a couple of her bags, honestly. She had been travelling for a while, and just wanted a break from carrying her stuff around, so this was honestly just an experiment to see if this was a good alternate route for walking through this extremely cold climate. “Go!” she shouted, snapping the reins, and getting the Arcanine to take off with a harsh tug on the ropes. Grunting and not expecting the initial force, Ricki was tugged forward, smacking right into the bar in front of her, before managing to lean back. Well, that was going to leave a mark.
Having regained her stance, it was all a matter of guiding her Arcanine at this point. Weaving through some of the trees, and being careful, given the fact the snow provided little friction, Ricki was doing rather well for this being the first time she was trying this. One might wonder where her husband was at this point, but Ricki was aware he was completing a few things for his work, giving her time to kill. She smiled to herself at this thought, her mind drifting off for a long moment, until she heard a howl from ahead. Her head jerking back up, mind snapping out of her day dream, she looked up to see the Arcanine making a sharp turn to avoid a wall of close trees. Oh boy.
“Pyro, stop!” she tried to shout, but it was too late. With the rough turn, Ricki lost her grip and footing on the sled, getting flung into the air. She crashed into the snow and rolled around like a rag doll, before finally coming to a stop. In the distance, the Arcanine had turned around and rushed over to his trainer when he realized she’d fallen off. Trotting up to her, forgetting to make his prancing look pretty as usual due to panic, Pyro came to a stop in front of Ricki. Leaning down, he sniffed her worriedly, nuzzling the woman who stirred from being momentarily knocked out. Reaching up, she gently pushed the nose away, but Pyro merely moved to bite down on her heavy coat and pull her out of the small snow pile she’d made.
Turning his body, he unhooked the ropes from his harness with ease, the Arcanine being rather smart to figure that one out. After doing so, he moved to curl up around his trainer, providing a warm place to rest until Koa got back. She managed to sit up and lean against the warm thick plush fur of Pyro’s pelt, taking her sweet time to come back to her senses. Ah, it had been a long time since she messed up quite like that. Ouch, she almost forgot how much it hurt to completely fuck up her little stunts. Not that she really regretted it, clearly based off the grin demonstrated to Pyro. “Practice makes perfect” she commented, getting an annoyed look from the Pokémon. “What? Its true” she whined, clearly back to her senses. Crossing her arms and slumping back against the Arcanine, the young woman grumbled “It could’ve been worse.”
The chill of the air wrapped around his body as he took a deep breath in and exhaled upon looking out to the place. Snowpoint City, Koa’s hometown, where he learned everything he knew prior to going another region to train and build a team. The man rode on top of his trusted Beartic, the ice queen, Yuki. The polar bear pokemon liked the feeling of this place, really cold and suitable for a pokemon like it. The snowflakes gently floated down to the Earth and everything seemed to be very peaceful. There was nothing like coming back to where you were born and remembering markings in trees and other sorts of things as you walk around the outskirts.
Ricki made the habit of exploring and was way ahead of the actual native of the land. Koa could not help but shake his head and exhaled a visible breath. His attire was an appropriate blazer with comfy pants and snow boots. The man also had a black scarf that he adjusted as they went on. In the distance he could see a green haired misfit trying to turn her pokemon into sled pokemon. Do you even understand how dangerous that is? Who do you think has to take care of it if you mess up? was Koa’s exact thought process at the moment as he watched with listless eyes. When she finally stopped, Yuki carried Koa over to the little adventurer of a wife that he had. This woman honestly had no regard for safety, in Yuki’s opinion.
“I think that’s the point Pyro is trying to make, Richelle” Koa smirked as he teased her by calling her by her actual name. The man looked forward and seemed to not be looking into the city, but somewhere much more closer. “We just need to go passed those trees and we’ll be there” and Yuki started walking without warning, leaving Ricki to try and catch up to them for once. Koa had a bright smile on the inside but a minimal expression of joy could be seen on his face as they went through the pathway, past the coniferous trees that surrounded them. Koa’s eyes seem to brighten up as he jumped off his Beartic and looked back towards Ricki and opened his arms.
“Welcome to our new home” Koa said proudly for behind him was a simple two bedroom house in the middle of snowy woods. The man then turned and from his pocket he pulled out a shiny silver key. He opened the door to the living quarters. There was a couch, a television, a fireplace, and shelves with various items that range from a vase to pictures of Koa and his mother. There was also a piano in the only corner in the living room where it could fit. There was also a dining table with two chairs and a few other doors that led to other rooms. Koa set his bag down on one of the dining chairs before he looked to his love and smiled.
“So, what do you think? It’s not necessarily big or anything but I figure it’d be best to stay here for now, considering this property is ours” Koa said to his wife, holding her hands in his own. This place could easily be expanded on as well if need be, but for now it was the two of them so there should be no real problems. Koa smelled the air again, being reminded of the day he left this place. The time that had passed had not really changed the place, but the man Koa was now compared to the boy he was then was enough change. But what made Koa the most excited was the fact that he could share his childhood with Ricki.
After getting back to her senses and airing her complaint, she figured she wouldn’t be doing anymore sledding today. Turning around, she began to unhook the belts to free Pyro from the harness’s grasp. As she started to do so, though, another voice spoke up and redirected Ricki’s focus from the task of freeing Pyro to directing a small glare over to Koa. “Oh yeah, choose his side, Koa” she grumbled, putting an emphasis on his name to mock his blatant use of her actual name. It wasn’t so much a disregard for safety, as Ricki was starting to get a better grasp of what was and was not a good idea. Her little stunts were all about just trying to have fun and start up new experiences.
Coming all the way to, not only Sinnoh, but Snowpoint City, Ricki made sure to come up with a lot of things she wanted to try. Koa had promised to teach her snowboarding, and there was sledding. Sledding while being pulled by a Pokémon didn’t exactly work out that well, but there was plenty other ways to sled. She’d just have to convince Koa to let her get one of those plastic sleds… Or a trash can lid, she’d heard that those work just as fine as well.
Unhooking the last of the binds, Ricki watched her Arcanine stand up and shake himself off. Shortly following suit, Ricki shouldered the harness and started off after Koa, walking through the thick snow rather than getting a ride from Pyro. He had turned and grabbed the ropes to the sleigh and began to drag it after his trainer. The beartic and her trainer had gone off well ahead, but it didn’t take long or much effort to catch up. Once getting pass the trees and the house was in view, Pyro released the sled and Ricki left the harness on it. Being out in the middle of the forest, she felt it was safe to not bother with stashing the sled or bindings anywhere to keep someone from stealing it. Covering it to keep it from being buried may have been a good idea, but Ricki’s attention was brought to her husband.
Returning Pyro to his pokeball, the young woman made her over to Koa as he welcomed her to their home. She would be happy to finally be out of the cold, even though she was dressed just for the weather. Watching closely, Ricki watched Koa pull out the silver key and open the door to their house. Moving from that apartment in the city to a cabin out in the woods was going to require some adjusting to, but Ricki didn’t particularly mind. She closed the door behind herself as she made her way inside, and did a brief twirl as she walked to get a complete view of the place. A smile was rather clear on her face, showing her content with the home.
Setting her bags down on the table, Ricki turned to Koa where he took a hold of her hands and asked for her opinion. Smiling at him, she chuckled a bit and looked around once more. Taking in the details of the home, Ricki turned a warm smile up to Koa with a little chuckle. “It’s great” she assured, moving to peck him on the lips. With a little chuckle, Ricki stepped back from her husband and removed her hat and scarf, tossing them onto the table. As she did so, she continued to scan the place, curiosity shining in her eyes. Removing her jacket, she set it down on the table and looked over at Koa. “I think it’ll do just the trick. Its just us two, we don’t need anything huge. Plus, I heard a fireplace is always a bonus” she informed, giving a wink. Right, like Ricki would be trusted five feet near a fire place.
Turning slightly to the doors, she wondered briefly which door lead to Koa’s old room. Did he clean that up before he left? The idea of digging through his old stuff was almost too tempting to pass up. What if he had some old teddy bear or cute little toy despite his manliness? Or what if teenaged Koa still had a few perverted magazines lying about? Oh, this was too good to pass up, all the teasing material of the century was behind one of those doors. Jackpot. Grinning up at Koa, she stepped towards the doors and asked “Which door leads to your room?”
Koa stared over at Ricki who seemed to be looking at all of the doors with mysterious intent. The guy noticed this after a few moments and a panicked expression was given but he was not facing Ricki when he did it so she could not see. He had remembered that he may or may not put his old perverted magazines away. There was no way that he was going to let that be found by his wife, but he would need a way to sneak out and burn them while she is occupied with something. “Don’t worry about that, just put your stuff down” Koa looked around the place for a bit to find something to do to keep her occupied and saw the piano.
“Oh yeah, I never told you that I played piano, did I?” Koa said with a laugh as he managed to find an excuse to not go around and check rooms. After she put her stuff down, Koa grabbed her hand and dragged her over to the couch. “Sit here, I’ll show you a little something” the man said with a smirk. He made his way over to the piano and sat on the bench. Opening it up caused dust to fly in the air, Koa wiping away any dust from the keys on the piano, it had been awhile afterall. He started to touch a few keys before he began to play a melody. The music soon filled the entire place, Koa’s focus seeming to be on piano. The song he played was a classic one, the usually simple Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. However, this was a very complex one at that which could be seen by the maneuvers that his fingers were doing across keys.
Koa seemed to be playing the melody with an indescribable passion and focus that it was hard to take him away from it, but when he came to his end, he looked at at Ricki and made a dramatic finish. He laughed a bit “Bet you didn’t know that I could do all of that, huh? It’s something my mom taught me” he said as if remembering his mother’s touch when she would help him learn how to play. But no matter how much training Koa had, it could never compare to his mother’s own piano skills and he knew it. The way her fingers glided across the keys was almost magical to him. He got his head back to reality and looked at Ricki with a smile. “So, what do you want to eat?” Koa said with a smile, hoping she had moved from the room issue.

Rather than going for the bait and actually showing her his room, Koa quickly opted out and tried to redirect her attention. Oh he knew her way too well. That, or he just knew there was stuff in there he didn’t want anyone to see. She’d find a way to get in there before he could get rid of it, though. With her mind set, Ricki refocused her attention to Koa as he did his best to find some sort of distraction. There was the television, but Ricki wondered if this place still had any sort of access to the channels after Koa had probably been gone from home for so long.
Judging by the layer of dust on everything, it’d be safe to say he’d been gone from home for a very long time. Sliding her hand across the table to watch some of the dust come off, she smiled as she mused over something. As a teenager did Koa even bother with dusting and chores? Maybe he hadn’t actually been gone that long; he just never dusted before he left. Looking around, he didn’t seem to have left the place as a disaster, at least. She was sure she’d find something strange around here, though. Before she could continue her search, Koa seemed to find his means of escaping going to his room.
Play the piano? Ricki was aware of Koa’s ability to play the guitar, but she nodded to show she was unaware of the other’s ability to play the piano. Chuckling a bit to herself, she followed after the eager man to the couch after he grabbed her hand and dragged her off. Without a fight, Ricki dropped down onto the couch, smiling to herself in content. She watched Koa make his way over to the piano, shifting to lounge on the couch comfortably. Despite the time, she would be glad to inform him that the couch was definitely still very comfortable. Lying out on the couch, resting her head on one of the pillows, Ricki’s eyes stayed on Koa as he began to test out the keys.
The testing was followed by a small soothing melody, before evolving into a complex version of a simple tune. Smiling warmly to herself, Ricki chuckled a bit at his choice of song to play, but listened all the same. Watching the young man play out the tune, she could easily see he was very much focused and into the music that he played. She probably could’ve thrown something at him and he would’ve remained utterly focused. Now, she wasn’t actually going to do that, but if it had been someone else, she may have considered the idea for a few laughs. Closing her eyes, Ricki just relaxed and listened to his song, curling up in a comfy little ball on the couch.
After a few minutes of playing, Ricki had almost been lulled off to sleep by the tune when Koa reached the end and picked up the pace of the song, creating a dramatic finish to his work. Opening her eyes as he began to finish up, she looked over once more to nearly meet his gaze. Pushing herself up, Ricki uncurled from her ball, sitting back up on the couch. Rubbing her eyes, she chuckled at his bragging and grinned at him. “No, I had no idea, Koa” she assured. “It sounded really good” added the green-haired woman, curtly nodding as if to assure the answer.
While the piece had been beautifully played, Ricki still had plans to weasel her way into Koa’s room. She’d figure out what he was hiding, no doubt. Pushing up from the couch, the young wife started to make her way over to Koa, standing next to him now as he asked about what she’d want to eat. Humming thoughtfully, Ricki gently pressed down on a few keys, making no rhythm but just a soft noise in the silent cabin. “Did we bring anything along with us? I don’t know if anything here would be good after you’d been gone for so long” she explained, eyes remaining on the keys as she continued mindlessly pressing them at random. “How long have you been gone, again?” she asked, finally tilting her head to look over at her husband once more. Unable to help it, she gave the other a warm smile, glancing to the piano and withdrawing her hand, stopping the random button pushing.
Koa smiled warmly when Ricki came to sit next to him. “Why thank you, I’m a man of many talents” he boasted to her with a smirk. She started to randomly touch keys and it made Koa chuckle “You want to learn? I am pretty good at teaching, especially if it’s one on one” Koa said, putting an arm at her waist and speaking in a seductive voice. That was the mind of newlywed, trying to involve the other in things they do as much as possible. This phase would pass soon enough but for now it was bliss. The man’s Shinx came out of his ball and saw the couch and could not be happier. It pounced onto the couch and curled up in a little ball there. Somebody was already well adjusted to the new atmosphere.
Koa listened when she questioned him about things that they would immediately need. “I feel as though this is one of those times where you should be glad you married such a smart man. One who plans ahead, one who thinks things through, one who always looks out for his baby” Koa jokingly boasted about himself some more before he gently placed her hand within his own and traveled over to the kitchen. He opened the fridge that was filled with fruits, juices, vegetables, and other necessities. When he opened up the freezer, there was frozen meat, TV dinners, and frozen waffles for when Ricki had to make breakfast in place of Koa.
“Baby, I got everything handled beforehand. I flew in on Dragneel earlier this morning and bought some things” Koa said as he gave her a little kiss on her cheek. The man took his guitar case that he set down earlier and opened up the case to retrieve the contents. He placed the it on the stand that was near the wall in the living room by the piano. Koa returned to Ricki’s side and hugged her from behind. “Hmm, do you want to go out and explore the town for a bit? We have more free time now” he said to his love as he rocked her from side to side, happy to be home. “We can pick up anything I missed too” Koa looked over at Rai who just seemed to enjoy that couch. Good luck trying to get him to get up out of that spot any time soon.
TAGS koa inaku WORDS 913 NOTES woot, home again~ and i love pester, he lives up to his name. sorry for the rambling, i wrote this on the plane and i was so bored
As Koa boasted his many talents, Ricki smirked slightly, unable to hold back a little chuckle as he bragged. He had many talents, indeed, ranging from things like battling and healing or creating music and food. She was a bit envious of her jack of all trades, but while Ricki wasn't anywhere near a master chef or a musical genius, she had things she specialized in and did well. Another laugh escaped her as Koa coiled his arm around her and offered private lessons. With that seductive air to his voice, Ricki knew very well how those 'lessons' would end. “I'll think about it” she chimed, sliding her finger across a few keys as the Shinx trotted off to the couch.
Ricki looked over at the little Pokemon with a smile, taking a moment to let out her own little partners. A Whismur quietly made his way under the piano, settling down under it, while an infamous Zigzagoon took off across the living room and flew around the place, investigating his new surroundings. It took a moment before the two Pokemon seemed to settle, or at least the Whismur did, Pester never settled down in one spot for long. He threatened the Shinx's precious comfort with every brief jump onto the couch and descent back to the floor. Once they seemed fine where they were, though, Ricki looked back to Koa, who was bragging once more, which made her only smirk again. Even though arrogance was without a doubt one of Ricki’s biggest pet peeves, she knew Koa well enough that she was aware that his bragging was done in jest and it amused her very much.
Taking his hand, she was swept off the bench and guided right along to the kitchen. Her husband opened up the fridge to reveal a freshly stocked pile of food to her. She blinked a few times, reaching in and plucking an apple from a shelf. She scanned it to see if it was really as fresh as it appeared, before hearing him explain how he'd managed to get all the food here. Well, that certainly explained why he was missing this morning when she woke up. Granted, she fell back asleep after seeing how early it was when she originally woke up, so whether he was there or not hadn't made much of a difference at the time, other than deprive her of a source of warmth. Following a kiss to her cheek, Koa went off to put up his guitar, which was when Ricki decided to play a little game she recalled from her elementary school days.
Grabbing the stem of the apple, she began to twist it and quietly sang the tune to the alphabet under her breath. “A, B, C, D...” she hummed quietly, continuing to twist the stem as she shut the fridge with her foot and the freezer with her elbow. The point of the game was to twist the stem and sing the alphabet, and whatever letter you were saying when the stem finally came off was, supposedly, the first letter of the name of the person you’d some day marry. She ran through the alphabet rather quickly and once more started from the beginning. “A, B--” she cut herself off as Koa's arms coiled around her from behind. She ended up ripping the winded up stem off the apple and eyed it as he asked her what she wanted to do with their free time. She smiled warmly to herself as he swung her side to side, and she looked over at her shoulder at him, flicking the stem off to who knows where. Clearly, whoever had a name started with a ‘b’ was of no importance to Richelle Inaku. Kissing his cheek, she hummed in thought over what she wanted to do, before taking a bite from her apple. “Heading out to town for a bit sounds good to me” she agreed, before licking the juice from her lips. Yep, definitely fresh.
Rai's comfort wouldn't last long as the ever active Pester was about to live up to his name. Launching from the floor, he landed on the couch and proceeded to use the electric type's body as a spring board to launch himself up onto the back of the couch. There, the little troublemaker pressed himself up to the window to look out the window and see what laid outside his new territory's boundaries. The snowy scenery didn't seem to promising as the Zigzagoon didn't look long and rushed off to see what else there was to stick his nose in.
Ricki turned slightly towards Koa, taking another bite from her apple, before holding it up as if offering him a bite. “When we get back, kinda curious if that fire place'll still work” she commented, glancing over at it only to see a now soot covered Zigzagoon make his way off the fireplace. Before he could make a trail, though, Ricki returned him to his pokeball with a shake of her head. “One of these days, he's going to stick his nose where it doesn't belong, again, and it will not end well” she sighed, quirking her brow at the dirty zigzagoon curling up for a nap inside of the pokeball. “... He's a nightmare to clean” she grumbled, remembering the last time she gave Pester a bath, she was just as soaked as him, if not more so, by the end of it.
Koa kissed Ricki's cheek after she agreed to the idea of going into town. Rai was chilling on the couch, ready to make it his home, but then something jumped onto him and his eyes opened wide. There was movement of his new couch and he did not like that. Pester was lucky that he left, because Rai was ready to bring down a whole world of pain...but now Rai was asleep again. Koa saw this and shook his head, it was amazing how quickly the pokemon could go to sleep. Ricki mentioned the fireplace and Koa thought about that one. As far as he knew, it did, but he would have to get some logs for the fire.
"Either that or Rai will attack him for interrupting his sleep" as Koa said this, he leaned over raised her hand tohim so he could take a bite out of the apple. He retracted and chewed with a grin as he grabbed her free hand. "Yo Rai, hold it down while we're gone" Koa knew that the Shinz heard because he shifted in his place and opened his right eye to look at his master before closing it again. "Lets go" he said to Ricki and they went out the door, Koa locking it before they started walking towards the city. The air was cold as before, but it was the middle of the day so it was slightly warmer for it was the sun shone down on them which provided for a slight warmth.
Yuki came out of her ball to walk with them because she enjoyed being in her type of environment. Koa nudged Ricki as he thought about where to wander to. "Oh yeah, there's a great Temple that we can visit in our city. Its pretty cool in there, and you never know what you might see" the man explained to her as he petted his ice bear. The young female Snover, Hale, also decided to come out of her ball. Koa picked a berry off her and took a bite into the cold treat, Snovers were really good for their special berries. He offered a bit to Ricki by put it in her vision and looking at her.
TAGS koa inaku WORDS 579 NOTES sorry for the wait, and sorry for ricki's shenanigans, lol
After returning the Zigzagoon to his pokeball, Koa added onto Ricki’s jokes of Pester getting just what he deserved. The words made her laugh and turn slightly to glance back at the Shinx on the couch. If there was one thing Ricki and Rai had in common was the ability to fall asleep quickly, and a loathing for those who dared to wake them. Many mornings, Ms. Inaku would have to almost be dragged out of the bed before she would reluctantly wander to the kitchen table and promptly pass out until breakfast was served. She smiled at the memory of a few incidents when this provided comedic results, but her attention turned back to Koa after he took a bite from the apple.
As he retreated back from the apple, she pulled it back to her lips and took another bite herself. Taking hold of his hand as he grabbed her own, Ricki offered the other a smile, beginning to follow him out of the house. As they started out, she took another large bite from the apple and set it on a table for later, or to be properly thrown away should they come back later than expected. She moved along after him, heading outside and promptly getting hit with a cold breeze.
Upon the impact of the breeze, Ricki stepped forward to walk closer to Koa in an attempt to stay warm. While she loathed hot places much more, the drastic cold temperatures of Snowpoint was certainly something she wasn’t used to. As they walked, two of Koa’s Pokémon appeared, one of which actually being a Pokémon she had given Koa a while back. The Snover had made him light up like a light bulb during her second encounter with Koa. While Ricki did adore the Snover, she had a feeling Koa could appreciate the Snover a bit more than her.
With a nudge from Koa, she peeked up at him with a curious hum and blinked a few times at the words. “A temple?” she questioned curiously, smiling at the other trainer. “Sounds pretty cool” she commented with a grin. Her eyes trailed down to the berry Koa plucked from Hale and she smiled as it was offered to her after his own bite. She reached up to gently hold his hand and guided the berry to her mouth, taking a bite. Humming in delight, she smiled and chimed “Oh wow, that is pretty good.” Letting go of his hand, she chuckled and grinned at Koa. “Thank ya” she mentioned, before going on “So, temple… Anything I should know before we head in there?” She lightly bumped into his side with another chuckle, before her gaze turned to Hale. She patted the Snover affectionately on the head getting a happy cheer in greeting.
There was a brief moment of thought as Richelle Inaku walked with her husband, before she smiled at an idea. “Oh hold on, shoe came untied” she suddenly announced, coming to a stop and kneeling down. Ricki let go of Koa’s hand, before reaching down as if to tie her shoe, when the devious young woman quickly scooped a wad of snow into her hands. A quick pat to pack it in, she promptly turned and threw it at Koa, not caring really if it hit the mark or not. She couldn’t resist the temptation of throwing a good snow ball, especially since she honestly rarely saw snow when she was younger.
His lovely wife inquired about the destination to which they were traveling to. Snowpoint Temple was definitely an interesting temple that was said to harbor many interesting and ancient pokemon among other things. The building itself was one that has been around for a very long time and as such, is deemed a historic landmark. Koa knew that in order to get in, you had to get past the one elderly man who guarded the entrance. The old man blocked it from trainers that were not deemed ‘worthy’, but Koa thought that that was just a bunch of bullshit. So, being the mastermind of the troublesome dynamic couple, the young Snowpoint native had a plan to get in without even being seen. So the young man smirked after her inquiry and was about to answer her until she went ahead of him.
Ricki went bent over to tie her shoe and as Koa’s dark eyes were fixated on her rear end, the next thing to come into his vision was a snowball to the face. He blinked a few times and cursed himself for falling for another trick that ended with a snowball thrown at him. So he grabbed some snow and attempted slip his hand into the back of her pants, letting the snow sit right on her butt. “So, how about I let you in on the plan now?” Koa said with a smirk. Whether or not he got the snow into her pants, he put his arm around her and looked around as they continued walking. He brought his face to her ear and blew on it, just to get her riled up before he spoke of the plan.
“Well you see, we aren’t allowed to actually be inside the temple, but I’ve got a plan for that” Koa spoke into her ear with a seductive voice, knowing that nothing excited Ricki more than mischief. He let his words linger so that she could catch on to the fact that they would be sneaking into the place. “The old man who guards the temple, but the thing is that his son guards it around this time. Fortunately, all we gotta do is throw snowballs at him and make him chase us. From there, we can cut the corner into some place where we can avoid him and sneak on in” Koa said in her ear before he backed away and grinned. He pet his beloved Beartic’s back after he finished off the berry. He hoped that this sort of thing would be exciting enough for his troublemaker of a wife as they entered the main part of the city.

TAGS koa inaku WORDS 693 NOTES and now you've got her going.
[/font][/b]” she chanted, patting her leg and butt down to catch the cold water with her clothing. She continued her little spazz out for a short moment, before the cold water finally seemed to warm up, or she could have gotten used to it. Either way, the young woman calmed down and was caught in Koa’s grasp shortly after. She pouted up at him, displeased with his counter to her own antics, but his question about a plan seemed to get her mind off of that. A plan? Ricki’s pout turned to a curious look, a brow quirked and eyes locked on him to show he had her attention.
Before Mr. Inaku dared to go on, he scanned the woods around them, before blowing a warm breeze against her ear. Ricki squirmed a bit, getting another chill from another dramatic shift of temperature against her skin. While she didn’t freak out as much as she had when the snow was in her pants, she was definitely on edge, again. She leaned against the other trainer as they walked, focus locked on him and nothing else. He knew just how to keep her focused, and the tone of choice he used for explaining the scheme only got her more and more anxious.
Once it was revealed they were going to sneak in, there was no way she could suppress her smirk. The energetic woman chuckled and closed her eyes as he went more into detail of what they were going to do. She nodded along and opened her eyes to look up at him as he backed off. Directing a grin at him, she chimed “Sounds like a good plan. How well do you remember this place after all this time?” She finished off her own berry and glanced to her belt, eyeing the various pokeballs she had on hand. “Or we could…” she trailed off as she unhooked a pokeball and released the monster inside.
The red beam of light escaped the ball and revealed Ricki’s Duskull, Spooker. He called out curiously, turning to the two Pokémon trainers. As a cold breeze flew past, the Duskull seemed to not even acknowledge it as he waited to see what his trainer wanted from him. Ricki gestured to Spooker with a grin at Koa. “Scare him off with Spooker, and break in while he’s off looking for cover” she suggested, eager to see if her precious ghost type could make a grown man scream like a girl. The Duskull didn’t seem to show enthusiasm for this idea, but he didn’t seem to dislike it either. The ever apathetic Spooker’s red light just casually drifted back and forth between the two as he waited for an agreement to be made.[/font] [/div][/ul]
