Xavier had no idea what to do in this situation. He didn't know what was wrong, and Parker didn't seem to be in any state to tell him. The ranger's hand hovered over the radio on his hip, almost ready to call for back up, or some sort of help. He didn't want someone dying on his watch, no matter who this guy ended up being. Parker's Snubbull seemed totally distressed and Xavier felt bad for even considering the baby pokemon a threat earlier, the poor thing was obviously super attached to it's trainer, and worried, but there wasn't much Xavier could do to calm the pokemon, after all he had no idea what was happening to Parker.
"What, what is it?" He says crouching down in front of him, leaning in and trying to listen closely to whatever he was trying to say through labored breaths. And then Parker is ripping off his sweatshirt, Xavier's eyes finding the binder that was constricting his chest and realization hit him like a train. He could feel heat instantly spreading to his cheeks as he stuttered "O-oh!" and stood quickly spinning around and taking a few steps forward.
So many questions, personal questions, raced in Xavier's mind. He knew what this meant, but then again he had never met someone like Parker in person. He didn't want to be rude, but it didn't mean he wasn't super curious. Right now though Parker's health was the only issue. So he crosses his arms, and stares at the brick wall of the alley like it is the most interesting thing he had ever set his eyes on.

Thoroughly satisfied seeing the ranger turn around, Parker checked up and down the alley before carefully tugging the binder off and slipping his sweatshirt back on. He sucked in a few lungfuls of air gratefully, stuffing the binder in his hoodie pocket before standing back up, picking Pudding up with him and cuddling the small fairy type to calm him down.
"Alright....you can turn back around...."
Parker grimaced at the hoarse sound of his voice, the fragile if not slightly feminine tone, the general disposition he now had. Parker was now slouched over, trying to hide as much of his chest as possible. He scowled, a fire bright in his eyes and ready to fight in the most obvious way when Xavier did finally turn around.
"Don't you fucking treat me any different you asshole. I know what you're thinking."
Parker's cheeks lit up red, this was a fucking disaster.
Xavier is counting every crack in the wall, every hole, every piece of dirt. Anything to stop him from fidgeting or running away from this situation. And when Parker speaks, telling him he can turn around, he nearly jumps out of his skin. For a moment he ponders if he should just stay this way, it wouldn't be that weird talking to him with his back turned right? Right?! He pinches the bridge of his nose hard, taking a few deep breaths before spinning on his heel and facing Parker again. He hopes the heat burning at his cheeks isn't too obvious, maybe its a good thing that his red face paint is most likely covering it.
Parker didn't sound well, and didn't look well. Hunched over and still in some obvious pain. Xavier wanted to help him up, to support him, but he didn't move a muscle. So he just blinked a few times, trying to look as understanding as he could even if he couldn't truly understand it. Not fully.
Xavier's mouth falls open, his lips moving but nothing coming out but air. He scratches the back of his head awkwardly, trying to make his mouth move, trying to say something. Anything. "I wouldn't..." he says so quietly he isn't sure if he's even heard. "Are you okay? Do you need anything?" He speaks louder this time, trying to alleviate the awkwardness that is hanging over them heavily at this point.

Parker lifted his chin defiantly, staring at Xavier and letting his gaze wander over red face paint and the smidge of red cheeks underneath. He scowled, but dropped it to a frown after a moment. Scuffing his ratty shoes on the ground he shifted Pudding in his arms, who continued to pap him on the shoulders comfortingly.
He wasn't sure what to say, what did one say when someone found out you were trans?
He shifted awkwardly, not used to people taking this so...well? The guy was still just concerned about him after all that went down.
"I...."
What was he supposed to say?
"So I'm trans. Which is fine. I'm fine I mean. Just.....fuck don't go telling people okay!?"
He highly doubted he would go blabbing around about Parker the trans kid to anyone, but he needed to say it.

Okay this was awkward. The tension in the air was nearly visible, and Xavier couldn't help fidgeting back and forth on both feet as he waited to see what Parker would say. He almost wished they could go back to being hostile with each other, anything was better than this weird feeling bouncing back between the two, obviously unprepared for any of this happening. What had begun as just a routine investigation was now something much, much more personal.
Xavier shakes his head back and forth so fast it nearly gives him a headache. "Of course not, why would I?" He stuffs his hands in his pockets as his brows furrow slightly. "I don't judge, that's your personal business, so I'm sorry that this happened."
Now what?
"I can't help you with that..." He says, nose scrunching with distaste. He didn't really like smoking, any form of it, but if it helped Parker than that was his choice. "Do you need to go to the hospital or something, or are you okay now?" He really wasn't sure exactly what had happened, even after seeing it.

Pulling a pack of smokes from his pocket he stuck a butt in his mouth, pulling out his white lighter and lighting the end of the cigarette. He looked at Xavier up and down critically, and seemed satisfied with whatever he was looking for. He took a few moments for himself, thinking about how much of a mess this really all was. He sighed, flicking the end of his butt to get the ash off the tip and looked down at Pudding, who was tugging on his pants leg.
"Listen buddy, I'm fine now. So let's uh....just forget this ever happened and get the fuck out of here? Sound good to you?"
He bared his teeth slightly in a sort of half smile, wanting to get as far away as possible.

The ranger lets out a sigh of relief when Parker seems to be okay, well as okay as he can be after going through that. Xavier tries to not scrunch his nose again at the smell of smoke, instead letting himself grin slightly as he kicks at the ground. The awkwardness had begun to leave them and he was glad of that. When Parker suggests they leave Xavier nods, "Yeah," is all he says quietly, following the shorter individual in a comfortable silence as they walk side-by-side down to the other side of the alleyway.
He isn't sure if he'll ever see Parker again. It was a big city, and an even bigger region. Either way he didn't regret this encounter, it had been interesting to say the least. They were by no means friends, but he felt like they had shared something special back there, even if neither of them would ever admit it. As they make their way to the exit he gives the guy a lopsided grin. "See you around, and be careful," he grunts, patting Parker on the shoulder before turning the opposite direction and heading back into the heart of town.
THREAD END We should thread with them again sometime. They could have an awkward friendship lmao.
