It was a rough journey here.
Kasper really didn't know what he was doing on the Island on the first place... well that's not entirely true, one reason he came was to escape from the constant nagging of his grandfather.. 'I regret coming here..' he grumbled, Kasper leaned back against the stump of a tree. At least this forest was quiet.. The city the ship docked in was too loud and crazy for him to handle, and he wasn't able to get a wink of sleep on the ship due to the constant rocking and background noises. Luckily he managed to find a nice quiet spot on the opposite side of the city and in his favorite scenery as well, a beautiful stranded forest. He began closing his eyes... slowly drifting to slumber, until he remembered something.
Digging in his backpack, he took out his pokeball: "Come out goomy." A small slime like pokemon appeared from the ball. At first Goomy was confused of where she was. For the entire journey Kasper kept her tucked away in the safety of the pokeball. Once goomy sensed Kasper he plopped onto his stomach falling asleep soundly. Kasper was surprised normally goomy hated coming out of his shelter, also disliked coming to new unknown places. But since the both of them were going through this together, perhaps they could achieve things they never thought they could.. 'ahh.. time for some sleep..'

Alexander slowly padded along the forest. His Sylveon, Iyasu, walked alongside him. Iyasu's ribbon-like feeler gently wrapped around Alexander's wrist, like they were holding hands. Since he got to these islands, there were just two things he wanted: Peace and quiet. Well... there were other things to. A job, a nice place to live, things like that. Overall though, he just wanted peace. He wanted the thoughts and worries that buzzed in his head like wasps to lay still for once. He thought he could get away from the regretful things he'd done back in Kalos, but so far his life's no better here. He can't get a job, he lives in a filthy hotel room. Alexander sighed as sorrow started to well up inside him. Only a moment after that though, Iyasu drew closer and rested her head on his side, making a soft trilling sound. As her ribbons started to radiate the calming aura Sylveon were known for back at Kalos, that sorrow slowly started to lift. Alexander cracked a slight smile as it slowly faded away, then he went and pet Iyasu's head. His Sylveon was the best comfort for him, even before she evolved she still did her best to help.
After a while, he could see a guy and a Goomy, laying there. He didn't feel like disturbing them, so he just sat by a nearby tree's roots. Iyasu then curled up beside him. This area was pretty peaceful, no wonder the guy and his Goomy wanted to rest here. He looked over at Iyasu, and saw a somewhat sad but determined look in her eyes. He could only guess how she felt, with a responsibility to soothe their own trainer. A part of him felt guilty because of that responsibility, but the other part felt appreciated by it.

Kasper was enjoying himself at the moment. a beautiful forest, the sounds and smells of undisturbed nature, it all attributed to a pleasant nap. He dreamed when he was back home, always feeling stressed and pressured by the peers around him. He shifted restlessly in his nap before opening his eyes drearily. For a second he forgot that he was on this island, at a place where no one would disturb him. That moment brought relief, he rubbed his eyes and sat upright against the tree. He glanced around his surroundings, and was pleased at what he saw. His goomy still slept soundly on his lap, and other wild pokemon were going on with the day.
When he looked to the left of him is when he spotted the unknown trainer. It was surprising to see him at first since Kasper ventured quite deep into the forest, but hey he didn't mind some company. He wasn't sure if the other trainer noticed him either, but he waved his hand friendly towards them.

While Kasper was having his nap, Alexander was just sitting there with Sylveon at his side. Iyasu's ears perked at the sound of rustling leaves and distant pokemon cries. Alexander sighed quietly and leaned against the tree trunk. His eyes went up towards the leaves as he tried to let his mind go wander around. He just wanted to be free from his thoughts once in a while. Were there Sewaddle hiding among the leaves? Were there Metapods hanging onto the branches, silently awaiting their evolution? His hand rested on Iyasu's back. Eventually, he was finally able to lose himself inside the sounds and sights. There weren't worries or anger. There was just him, Iyasu, and the forest.
He snapped out of it from the sound of the guy starting to toss and turn in his sleep. Alexander had an inner debate on whether or not to wake the guy up or not. Suddenly, the dude woke up and noticed him, giving Alexander a wave. He blinked in surprise a bit. "Ah, hey... I was gonna keep walking but I didn't wanna wake you up..." he scratched the back of his head and smirked a tiny bit. His expression relaxed and his hand lowered. "The name's Alexander, but just call me Alex..." he introduced himself. The Sylveon next to him stood up and stared towards the Goomy. Alexander looked at his pokemon, "This here is Iyasu..."

He scratched his head in confusion, how long was this stranger watching him sleep? Slightly feeling awkward he politely laughed. Looking over towards the slyveon he mentioned, it was the first time Kasper met one. He watched with curiosity as the slyveon lovingly rubbed up against it's trainer. Kasper recalled that in order for an eevee to evolve into slyveon, the trainer and it must have a very strong bond. He was jealous of that bond they shared, but he also realized that the two of them must have been through alot together. "Hello Alex, I'm Kasper. Pleasure."

Alexander blinked a bit and nervously laughed a bit as well. "Sorry, that seems creepy... Didn't mean to come off that way..." he stared off towards the side. He felt like saying that he was just staring off into space and not towards some guy sleeping in the woods, hopefully then he wouldn't seem like some weird stalker. Although, he couldn't find the exact words to explain that, so there was just a few seconds of uncomfortable silence. "Pleasure's mine, Kasper... So, uh..." he wasn't sure what to ask, "What brings you to these forests?". He looked towards Kasper a tiny bit, though he still didn't make direct eye contact.

Kasper scratched at his wrist. He always did this when he was nervous. Amongst other things such as avoiding eye-contact and slapping himself silly.. Kasper felt that he was in the wrong when he assumed that Alex was just watching him sleep. Maybe he was also trying to get away from all the crowds. "Ah! No don't worry about it." Kasper said with a reassuring tone. He got up from the ground, dusting away all the leaves and dirt that fell onto him. He also returned goomy back into it's pokeball, that pokemon of his was rather shy and preferred to be inside a safe home anyway. Kasper started approaching Alex and his slyveon during those awkward moments of silence. He cleared his throat when he was asked the question. "Ah.. just wanted some quiet." He said with a shrug, glancing closer at the slyveon. "I don't feel comfortable around crowds."
