[attr="class","landfill-scroll"]Augustus never had much freedom in his youth, he was always chained to people or places. Today he decided to throw those chains out the window since he already broke them after leaving his home. For once he would do his own thing, instead of follow someone's orders or attempt to keep a family above waters, he would simply take a walk around a small town for the hell of it. Which was still someone what strange for the man, since one, he grew up in the city and never truly experience nature like the one in this small town before and two, he never really saw himself as an outdoors type of person.
He held onto his beloved and green Larvitar, hugging it close to his chest. He had a genuine smile across his face, not the usual stitched forced one he put on for shows. It was nice to just do his own thing, he hoped no one would come up to bother him, and god knows he'd never go out of his way to bother someone else right now. His Larvitar was asleep in his arms like a baby, he rocked it gently. He didn't understand why he got so attached to it, he was never given the opportunity to bond with a Pokémon or pet before, hell Augustus didn't even have friends. All his life was lived alone along with his family, and god did he regret not leaving sooner. He could tolerate only a few of siblings, mainly Seamus for he wasn't a lazy bum like the rest in his eyes. Though is it really good thing to be praised by a Galactic for your decent work ethic? Who knew, Augustus didn't consider himself a criminal, more of a man willing to break laws for personal gain. . .
"Well, Mint this is it. This is our life now, enjoy the peace while it lasts friend." The Galactic muttered to his beloved Pokemon, he knew it didn't understand a word he said, but wanted to believe it did. The world was a lonely place for this green haired freak.
from solaceon to that nightmare in the mines, twinleaf was a welcomed stop. her only job today was to retrieve more uniforms for the snowpoint ranger base, and then she would be free to relax for the day. the twinleaf station is small, just like its town-- a little run down, but homely, and warm. while she's inside she makes quick friends, exiting on her own time, bag loaded with the extra uniforms, sandile at her feet.
another enjoys the day, exotic in hair color, even more exotic in pokemon. she recognizes the larvitar as a species, despite never seeing on in person. her face lights up, admiration for the ground pokemon instantly showing. she feels a bit awkward approaching with no motive, but rangers weren't supposed to be feared, were they? "Excuse me," she speaks softly, hesitant with the fear of annoying the stranger. Not to mention she didn't want to be the reason the pokemon was no longer napping.
"Where did you capture that pokemon?"
She doesn't realize that her question could be interpreted as investigation-- the woman is genuinely curious. She needs one of those.

[attr="class","landfill-scroll"]Augutus wasn't aware of the fact that their was a Ranger base in Twinleaf town, he always assumed it was just some small town where beginner trainers would head to collect a Pokemon from the professor and then go on their merry way for their brain dead journey to collect all the badges and become a "Pokemon Master" something Augustus had no intention of becoming, well unless it paid well. . .
He continued his walk and just what he did not want to happen happened. The Galactic heard a meek voice behind him trying to grab his attention, he spun on his heels slowly to see who dared bother him, he made sure not to wake up his sleeping Larvitar in the process. Augutus eye'd her up and down for a few moments before realizing that the person he was talking to was a Ranger. "Fuck, why does she want to know where I got this Larvitar. . . Did those dumbasses at Galactic just steal it and hand it off to me? No, no, Augustus don't jump to conclusions."
Augustus' smiled faded slightly. "Where did I get this Larvitar?" He repeated her question out loud before repeating "Where did I get his Larvitar." in his head. He glanced upwards and scratched his cheek lightly. "Ummm. . ." The Galactic muttered quietly pretending to remember where he got it when he truly was coming up with a lie. "She was a gift from my. . . Father." He answered, a complete lie, he didn't even know who his father was, nor did he care. "Or was it my mother? I don't remember it was years ago for a birthday." The Green hair man added to his lie. Hopefully she'd fall for it, and if she didn't believe him, who cares? It wasn't her business anyway.
she's never seen the evil in those- forgetfulness is a common trait, and she only offers a smile as he seems to think back. they must have been together a long time if he had to think that far- it's heartwarming. "oh! your first pokemon then? truly a wonderful bond," she gestures to the sandile next to her that sniffs the air, little nostrils flaring as wide eyes flicker over the green-haired stranger. "your parents must care about you a lot to go through the trouble of getting such a rare pokemon!"
why? she tilts her head a bit. "oh, my apologies. i was just curious-- larvitar would be a wonderful addition to my team in the future. do you know where they found it? or perhaps it was a gift.." voice trails off as she thinks out loud, chin between her thumb and index finger. "not that i wish to have yours!" she realizes it could sound like a threat of theft. "So sorry, I was talking to myself again."
Alpha realizes she may be holding his day up, but her good mood makes her talkative. "Are you two heading anywhere special?"

[attr="class","landfill-scroll"]"And now I have started the not so uncommon snowball of lies." Augustus forced a smile, one that looked friendly, but definitely was far from it. "Yes, my first. She's pretty unique, I haven't seen another person with one." Augustus replied, glancing down at the Sandile. "What a comical looking Pokemon. . ." He thought to himself as he glanced back up the Ranger's face. The Galactic bit he cheek quite harshly, the next line she said angered him greatly, but he kept his composure. "Haha, yes, there was quite a bit of favoritism among the large amount of siblings I had. . ."
Augustus didn't think about it too much, he refused to let his past catch up with him now, after all it was left behind for a reason. He hugged the Larvitar a bit tighter as she said 'a wonderful addition to my team', Augustus would rather die than hand over his Larvitar, there was no way in hell he'd let anyone have his current one. The Galactic's hug loosened as she said she had no interest in taking his, guess she was a Ranger after all. "Don't worry about it, I get lost in thought all the time."
He let go of his cheek, and let out a genuine smile. The more he talked to the Ranger the friendlier he seemed to get, maybe it was because he was in a good mood, who knows. "No I'm not heading anywhere special, I'm just on a casual stroll." He answered the Ranger. "Fuck it Augustus, make a friend." His brain told him as he opened his mouth to speak. "Do you want to join me Miss. . .?"
Naive, anything he's faking goes right over her head. Alpha has never been the suspicious type, and now is no exception. The boy has given her no reason to think otherwise. "oh, siblings! I have one as well, back in Dahara. He is still young, but on a wonderful path to success." She suddenly feels nostalgic, thinking about the dry heat and their little house near the oasis. So many memories wrapped up in that place.
She smiles back, the good mood infectious. "Wonderful day for one of those-" she considers his offer, checking her watch. Plenty of time, as always. "I'd love to! Ramos, Alpha" she extends a hand, her alias coming off as second nature now. In all honesty, her first name embarrasses her. While she enjoys her heritage, nobody trusts a foreign ranger. With something as ambiguous as Alpha, she may as well be an enigmatic clean slate. "And you?"

[attr="class","landfill-scroll"]Augustus' Larvitar squirmed in his arms slightly, he would rock it slowly trying to keep it asleep. "Only one younger sibling? Lucky you, there was about eight children in my family, me being the eldest."Augustus replied as he started to zone out for a moment remembering each of them, he shook his head snapping back to reality and then tilted his head slightly. "Dhara? Where is that? I don't believe I've ever seen that on this regions maps." He asked thinking for a moment, he didn't recall a single city or town called that, not in the Sinnoh Region at least.
Augustus' smile grew a bit larger as she agreed to join him on his walk. He adjusted his Larvitar's position in his arms carefully and slipped his hand into hers, shaking it firmly. "Alpha Ramos. . ." He repeated quietly, it was clearly foreign, was she new to the region? "That's a lovely name." The Galactic would then release her hand, he didn't want to be the awkward one to shake it for too long. "I'm Augustus, Augustus Conary. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Unable to keep sleeping with all of Augustus' movement and talking around her, Larvitar woke up letting out a tiny yawn. Augustus's eyes shifted to the Pokemon, he softly bopped the Ground type on the nose. "And this is Mint the Larvitar."
"Eight?! My goodness," a hand rises on her chest as if she's clutching her heart, though it's just a playful expression. An awkward laugh comes from her as she processes it. "I cannot nearly imagine.. How did you survive?" it's more of a rhetorical question that anything, her attention being drawn toward her own history again. "Off of Kalos, there is a desert. Within the desert is an oasis. Such is Dahara. What about your home town? " she smiles warmly. "Pleasure to meet you as well, Augustus Conary." she makes a mental note to remember the name with the face, storing it in her personal memory files (or at least she'd like to think so).
All eyes fall on the Larvitar as it awakens- she nearly melts inside, refraining from acting too enamored with the thing despite what the little girl in her does. "One of the happiest meetings of my day. Absolutely breathtaking."

[attr="class","landfill-scroll"]Augustus nodded after her reaction. "Eight, three sisters, four brothers, and then me." The Green Haired male replied chuckling slightly, it hurt him to talk about leaving his family as if he did it out of some sort of kindness. No, he knew they were slightly fucked without him and Seamus, the two were the main source of in come. "I just supported them till I reached adulthood, the rest were ready to start working, and I was just another mouth to feed so I left with the second eldest." He said forcing a smile, still looking genuine but being far from it. The exact opposite happened, he left and took everything he owned with him, he didn't know if the family could survive without him, nor did he really care. The only true was that Seamus tagged along with him to his Journey in Sinnoh.
"I was born in Castelia City, but after I left I moved here. So now I live in Veilstone. It's the closest I can get to that homely feeling." Augustus replied, he had the feeling this would not be the last time he saw the Ranger, and for once he didn't mind that feeling. He enjoyed the woman's company, but he'd never admit it to her.
Augustus eyes her, he can tell quite easily that his Larvitar melts her heart, reading people was quite easy for the male. "I could say the same to you." He teased, and holds out the Larvitar. "You may hold her if you wish, though do be careful she's kind of a baby." The Galactic explains as the Ground type made grabby hands towards the Ranger.
