"It's no problem. We all have our... Passions. Mine is coffee. Yours is rocks and stones." He took another sip of the refilled cup, sighing in joy. He loved the black mixture especially. Black as night, yet with some light sugar mixed in until one could get the hint of sweetness beneath all the black, despairing bitterness. Only he could think of coffee with such "deep" thoughts. It was his refuge, his own little thing, his deathly addiction he would never admit to being an addiction. Blacker than a moonless night. Hotter and more bitter than the depths of hell itself. That was...
He rolled his shoulders at the others question. "I'm not a local, actually." Snowbelle town. The home of his mother and apparently his father too, although she had never talked much about him besides the usual things like how he looked just like him and all the sentimental crap single mothers would spew to try and imagine their lovers being close when they left for a good reason. She wasn't a horrible mother or a person, yet she had left such deep found fears into Jacques. He shivers for a moment, clearly uncomfortable with the subject. "Snowbelle. I'm from... Snowbelle. Ah, my mother was from there. As was my father."

[nospaces] [attr="id","hyc1"] [attr="id","hyc4"]so i'll just stay right here [attr="id","hyc3"]and i'll be fine on the outside [attr="id","hyc2"] The man visibly relaxed when he was told it was fine. Even if it was his passion, he should learn to tighten the reins while around others who did not share such a passion. So, he bit the inside of his lip, leaning back in his chair and wrapping his arms around his back. Its contents rustled with the movement, but he ignored the sound in favor of clutching it closer. His eyes remained trained on the other man's face, silently observing the minute details as he fell silent as if there was anything to uncover, any small facial expressions he would have missed otherwise as the man thought.
[break][break]
Who was he kidding? He was practically blind above ground, and he made it worse by taking off his sunglasses. Perhaps he should put those on. "Snowbelle, huh?" He let out a hum, trying to picture the map of Kalos in his mind. "That's not too far away from Dendemille." He had never been to Snowbelle, but he did know it was mountainous with a lot of snow. Dendemille often had snow, but it usually piled up north of the town due to the Frost Cavern. What a fitting name. Shielding his eyes, he glanced up at the sky to judge the sun's location. Well, it was a futile effort since the clouds had only growth thicker and darker, promising rain within the hour or so.
[break][break]
"While this talk has been enjoyable, I'm afraid I must get going," that was only half a lie. He honestly didn't need to do anything, but he would rather not get caught out in the rain. He looked down from the sky, gathering his trash with the intent of throwing it into the first trash can he saw. "Do you know where the nearest PokeMart is? Or shop in general?" He asked while slipping on his sunglasses.

Thank god, he wasn't pressing on the issue. Guy needed a lot of things, coffee included, but he didn't need someone pressing into his personal issues. He chewed on his lower lip for a bit as the other slipped on their sunglasses. He thought for a moment. The mart's in the center, right? He heard that the setup wasn't like this at all regions, but he knew for sure that Kalos and Unova had this far more modern setup. Maybe the old traditions just died hard. Kanto, Sinnoh, Johto and Hoenn were all located in a far more rural area, right? So it just makes sense, right? Yeah, something like that. He eventually pushed himself up and stretched, leaving another quick tip on the table for the waiter. "I can show you."
Without another word he was already up and about, walking at a relatively short pace so that the other could catch up to him. His hands were behind his back, and he held quite the formal stance as he took his steps. Around them the sun had begun to set down a bit, the golden rays clashing against the stone pavement and shining off of it slightly. The mach-moving service had finished up and the streets were less busy in general with most of the populace having moved on to evening tea or other such activities. Some kids were flying kites at the nearby hill, and an old lady was crossing the street with her Stoutland.

[nospaces] [attr="id","hyc1"] [attr="id","hyc4"]so i'll just stay right here [attr="id","hyc3"]and i'll be fine on the outside [attr="id","hyc2"] Stretching his legs before he stood up, he adjusted the strap across his shoulder. The bag hung limp against his hip, shifting ever so slightly with his small movements as he made sure he had gathered up anything he might have left. He held the empty cup between his index finger and thumb, barely placing any pressure on it. The man quickly glanced around, spotting the nearest trash can. He made a beeline for it, tossing the disposable cup with a single, fluid movement before turning back towards the castle guard.
[break][break]
Quickly catching up to the man, he kept himself a step behind the man, mostly so it was easier to keep track of him. Keeping up with someone while they were in his peripheral vision would only cause headaches, and he was fine with following someone else. His calloused hands moved to grasp at the strap of his messenger bag as his eyes searched the area. He was quite honestly glad that those movers had cleared out; he did not need another run in with a musclebound Pokemon who was blinded by boxes.
[break][break]
"Sorry to be imposing on you like this," he finally spoke up, breaking his silence and focusing his hidden gaze on the path ahead. "I really should have prepared more before coming out." A sheepish smile formed on his lips. The PokeMart was probably in an easy to find place, too. It was probably in the Pokemon Center--he honestly couldn't remember. He had been to too many regions with different locations for their stores, and Kalos was known for having a wider variety of stores than strictly the PokeMart or some big department store.

ooc: this is so late and awkward and i'm super sorry /flails

"You aren't imposing on me at all, don't worry." He didn't have anything to do anyways, his work day wouldn't start for a good while. And he could come late anyways, nothing ever happened to the palace. Some honedges might come and train and clash in the courtyard at night, but they never harm the property. Some espurrs and mewostics might come by and do some of their strange rituals. They were haunting, but at the same time beautiful to the human eye. Not many had the joys of witnessing them. He should thank Arceus or whatever was up there in the sky besides the sun and the moon on how lucky he was to be able to enjoy such events, but. He didn't really. He felt too cynical about the whole thing to appreciate them properly.
His hands were folded behind his back as they went and turned a few corners and crossed a few streets. A quick and painless journey that led them to the pokemon center. He nudged his head towards the pokemart section and walked over to take a seat on a nearby seat. "There you go, that's the mart."
(sorry for shrot post, just couldn't think of anything aaa)
