What in tarnation is this!?

[The gear feed opens on the ground, half-obscured by grass. Not too far in the distance, a young, fair-skinned girl sits shakily on her knees, her face obscured by a ten-gallon hat and a large golden ponytail. Her knees are scuffed and her face is dirty, signs she just fell from her feet. However, rather than trying to get back up, she remains on her knees, staring at her hands in disbelief.]

I swear... [She pants.] I swear... if this is one of your tricks, Discord... [She tries to get back on her feet, but stumbles backwards. Her hat falls off her head, revealing her freckled face and shocking green eyes.]

You ain't gonna have any teeth when I'm through with you!!

[AJ's happy to have (re)made a friend, as well. This was a really awkward time for her, and she's clinging on to friendly faces right now, though she'd never admit that.]

Fully grown? I figured she was just a pup, but the thought never came into my head.

Growth works differently here. It's called evolution and can happen quite suddenly. Not too dissimilar from the metamorphosis from a caterpillar to a butterfly.

_{[He's contemplating whether to show her Big Red or not. It is her Arcanine, after all - but if she doesn't know yet that she's been here before, he doesn't really want to mess with her head by telling her that. ..not to mention that a six feet fire dog in itself can be pretty startling.]}

Now ain't that somethin'. Jessie, you're gonna grow up to be big an' strong one day. [Bark bark!]

Everyone does, sooner or later.

[She gives her pup another pat on the head.]

You're right. Which is why we should have a battle, sometime. If I ever manage to catch up to ya, I mean.

_{[Have a grin, AJ! A pretty big one.]}

I'll look forward to that.

_{[And then, suddenly serious - but kindly so. He knows this must be confusing.]}

You must have heard about being here before by now, haven't you?

[And like that, her smile fades. She does her best to bring it back, but it just comes off awkward.]

Y-yeah. Pretty strange, ain't it?

_{[He looks a little apologetic at that. Sorry AJ, but he'd like to keep all cards on the table.]}

Yeah. It's yet another thing Johto likes to pull on us.

[She can tell her smile isn't fooling him, so she'll drop it.]

I wish I could remember, so I'd know how to treat the people I knew here.

Well, you're treating me the same so far. That's good enough in my book.

_{[The 'don't worry about it' is there between the lines.]}

Good to know. Last thing I'd want to do is be rude to an old friend.

I highly doubt you need to worry about that. Think you're all set to take on Johto again?
