[ 40k poke doesn't sound too bad. Red has to check his finances (lol) and look up some directions to this airport. For a moment, he wonders why they need to go on an airplane considering they have Pokemon that can surf and swim, but he decides Green probably knows best.
Pikachu has been talking in the background the whole time though-- ]
Pikachu wants to know if there will be air conditioning.
I'm not answering stupid questions. [ There's a big difference, and since Red's comment comes somewhere in there-- ]
Like that one.
[ Anyway. ]
I've got family there who knows I'm coming over. He'll let you stay with him if you need it. What he said. [ Green didn't ask at all. ] I'm going to be busy, so I'll be staying wherever I need to. But I hear the beaches are nice, so maybe you'll catch me on some of them!
[ Ugh. Why did he make this phone call again?? Why does he even bother?? ]
I didn't assume. He said it! He... [ Sighing, Green gives up. Know what, he isn't going to explain. ] Just don't bother me until the day, alright? I'm too busy to deal with the pair of you.
And don't bother Daisy about me. [ Note to self, remind Daisy not to tell them where he lives. ]
[Sinnoh's not that far from Kanto but it is far enough that it's going to take her a while before she comes home. There's a pause as she considers how long that's going to take.]
[ Since she already placed an estimated time, Red decides to go along with it. From where he is, he can technically see Green a little less than half an hour if the guy is in Kanto. If he isn't, he'll ask Daisy despite the warning.
However, he knows very well how he reacts to him, so this is all for the best. ]
[ And click. This might have been the first time in forever Green's talked to either of them, but that doesn't mean he's about to have a teary good bye or give them time to say bye back. Who do you think he is.
Surely none of this will turn out a nightmare for him. ]
[ Why is he always stuck with such weird people? Red ends up still staying on the line for a little bit, wondering if they did hang up.
... Oh, okay. Well, he'll hang up, too. Though he'll definitely visit home in three days just to catch everyone. Even if Green mentions not being present.
The pair of them could get lost in the middle of nowhere (or far, far deep inside nowhere, on top of nowhere--), but that was out of choice. They achieved what they always set out to do, or getting close enough to that goal, so to simply think they'd get distracted or not make their way on his doorstep...
Well, maybe they would. Maybe they wouldn't. When was perhaps the only question than any doubt about their eventual presence, but when he has travel papers and actual adult business to sort out, permits obtained, blah blah blah... he doesn't want to focus on that. They have families! He gave strict orders to Daisy that no, he doesn't need to see them before they go, tell them he lives in Celadon City if you have to say anything.
But of course, his luck is never that good. Because everyone knows that Viridian makes more sense and his pokémon can't be cooped up in their balls all day, and all it takes is being careless and deciding to let Arcanine out for some fresh air in the park, eyes connecting with -- ohhhh, no. ]
No.
[ Arcanine's ears poke up, nose too, from the flower bed she had been investigating, as Green's quick to turn, like he can still make an escape from this situation-- ]
[There's Leaf in her traveling clothes, perking up at that familiar Arcanine. On her shoulder her Ditto making pleased little noises at seeing a friend.]
Good to see you, Green.
[She's already walking his way. She promised she'd be here, so here she is, three days after the phone call.]
[ it looks like the two of them met up before they found Green? Not a good day for the local Gym Leader here. Red knows very well what his friend is trying to do and it doesn't deter him at all. Pikachu who rests on his shoulder... Does not look happy, glaring daggers into Green's dumb spiked hair.
He follows after leaf with a take out bag. ]
I brought soup.
[ As he mentioned before. It's all toasty and ready for them. Be glad they didn't eat yet? Since... They can very well have eaten it all. ]
[ Arcanine barks, pleased even when as Green turns on a heavy step and crossed his arms, expression clear as to what he's going to be writing in his personal journal later that day. ]
Didn't I tell you both to go home? Go back to Pallet Town! [ Huff huff huff, grumble grumble grumble. ] I never agreed to meet for lunch!
[ No, he doesn't remember anything about soup...go away...let him be cool... ]
[ i need to track this entry... He isn't exactly ignoring Green, but he likes Leaf's plans better. Pikachu is enjoying the view from Red's shoulder, waving at Arcanine now that they're here. Despite the animosity towards her trainer, they seem to at least get along. ]
A picnic sounds good. I'm sure Arcanine would want some cake.

[That's one way to try and dodge them but Leaf's grown up with him. She knows exactly what he's doing.]
Where are you staying?
[Yeah, just Green's going to be in whatever place he's got set up. But it'd be nice to know where he is.]

[That sounds like something Green would do. She wouldn't be surprised if he didn't ask at all.]
I can't imagine you roughing it.
I'll be home soon.
no subject
He's probably assuming. [ All-in-all it sounds like Green is sick. ] I'll bring some soup.
[ It sounds like they're all heading back home for a not surprise visit. ]

I'll see you in three days.

Do you want souvenirs?
[Hanging up abruptly like that? That does sounds like Green. Maybe he's not quite as sick as she's expecting, but either way she's flying back.
Click.]

I got some cake from Sinnoh. Since we're already here we might as well eat together.
