A day off was rare for Mizumi, but he certainly wasn't complaining. Not that it was truly a day off. He didn't have to go into work and yet there was still work to be done. That is why he was in the garden, sitting at a bench with a large sketchpad in his lap. Mizumi was suppose to be sketching up new designs, but it was rather hard. He had no inspiration!

Well, at least he would't be alone for too long. Before coming to this beautiful garden, he had made a call to his partner. It had been quite a time since they had met last, had spent time together. Mizumi wanted nothing more than to get to know the other better! Eager, but trying not to show it, the feminine male focused on his sketchpad and tried hard not to look around with anxious curiosity.

"hmmm..." he mused lowly to himself before his scythe like tail perked like that of a pointer dog when his eyes rested on a familiar frame. upon closer inspection, it seemed he was busy with something, focused on something in front of him. he wasn't sure exactly what it was but decided to investigate, silently approaching from behind before looking over the older boy's shoulder to almost blank canvas of the sketchpad. he tilt his head confusedly like that of an animal as he watched before finally making himself known with a few words of advice. "i know i'm not a designer but i think you are supposed to be drawing something there." he joked though his tone would make nearly anyone take him seriously. he just wasn't that great of a comic. oh well. "hey." he greeted simply, offering a slight smile. that was pretty good for the normally dull and much too serious absol. he wasn't in a good mood often but it was something about being around this guy that made him feel a little more at ease. maybe it was the fact mizumi was a pretty calm and kind guy himself or perhaps something to do with the bond between that of a trainer and pokemon. either way, he was actually pretty appreciative.

So focused on the blank paper, the sudden voice startled the boy. Letting out a startled gasp, he fumbled with the pad, almost dropping it before hugging the object to his chest. Quickly turning his head, he stared at the other with rather wide eyes. It only too Mizumi a moment to realize it was his sweet Gijinka - well sweet in his eyes - and that helped him to settle. Didn't save the other from a scolding though. "You scared me!". His tone was a bit sharp, but only a moment later a smile appeared on his face. Gentle and calm, as was expected from the young man. Taking a momention to catch his breath, he sighed and set the pad aside before patting the bench beside him.

"Sit! .. I am trying to come up with some designs but, well frankly, i'm at a bit of a block.". Carefully closing the pad and placing his pencils atop it, Mizu turned in his spot to face the other, his smile growing wider now, more excited. "How have you been! I feel like I have not seen you in weeks.. that is far too long! .. I was worried". He admitted this softly, and looking the other over. At least he looked healthy!

"sorry." he apologized regardless, it wasn't a nice thing to do really. even if it was unintentional. unlike himself, he really couldn't see mizumi being angry. frankly he couldn't take the sharp tone too seriously. and sure enough, the boy smiled, seemingly calm from the little scare. it was then he sat aside the aforementioned sketchpad before patting the free space on the bench beside him, ushering him to sit. obediently, the dark pokemon sat next to him, leaning back and releasing a sigh before looking over to him as he spoke, explaining his issue with his design work. he wasn't much help in that subject. he wasn't much of a fashion expert. frankly, he barely kept up with it if at all unless the trainer happened to want to help him. but as mentioned before, they didn't really get to hang out much. it was a pretty saddening thought actually. it was moment's like this whenever the two actually were together that abel realized how terrible things were whenever he wasn't around. he was literally the only person who could get him in a decent mood. "i'd help if i could. but all i'm good for is fighting." he pointed out, crossing his arms over his chest as he tried to relax for a bit in the company of his partner. "tell me about it." he agreed with a sigh after he mentioned how long it seemed. it felt like forever. but then he mentioned being worried and he rolled his eyes. "what? don't think i can take care of myself?" he smirked before diverting his eyes. "i'm fine. i mean i'm not dead am i?" he chuckled jokingly, albeit his sense of humor was probably a little too dark for his trainer's liking. "i've been trying to keep out of trouble." he admitted with a sigh as he looked over to him. he'd made a promise he'd try and take it easy. of course him being so short tempered it was easier said than done. "how about you?" he returned. "life been treating you good? do i need to kick some ass?" he smirked and he was sure mizumi knew he was being serious. even with how little they got to see each other he found himself extremely protective over him. some people might find something like that annoying but he couldn't really help it. he just didn't want to see him getting hurt, let alone allow anyone to even have the chance.

Another scolding escaped the boy. "That isn't true!". Even a faint huff was on his face as he leaned and dared to softly tap his finger on the other's nose. "You are much more than that! I wouldn't have called you if I didn't enjoy your company, silly.". It shocked Mizumi how little Abel thought of himself. He found the other far more fantastic! He was a sweet boy, and very beautiful when he actually talked to people with that light smile. He just wished the other would smile more, instead of fight!

".. Life.. has been..". He sighed. There was no lie to give the other. "It has been hard. Not by the cause of anyone! just work. I am behind on my designs and frankly, can not think of anything. My boss has been very kind and given me more time. He has always been kind though. ..Don't worry Abel~ No one is really mean to me! I can handle it - please, don't worry so much for me.". Speaking softly, Mizumi dared to reach out and rest his hand upon the other's. Such a sweet boy, to look out for him. Mizu had to admit that, since the other came around, he felt more relaxed. Certainly Mizumi could handle bullies! Yet it still felt nice that, for once, someone stood up and fought against the cruel words. It wasn't often people defended the strange male.

"yeah yeah." he waved off. "whatever you say zumi." he teased lightly. it was kind of normal. it didn't seem like anything would change his personal opinion of himself. that was literally all he thought he was good for. the only thing he was really talented at. but hey, if mizumi thought that, whatever. maybe he was right, maybe he was wrong. but it was nice to know he actually enjoyed his company. or at least he said he did. as he explained he turned his full attention to him, already prepared to go after whoever made life difficult for him. but the preparation seemed to be useless as he said there was no one causing trouble. that it had just been work. unfortunately he couldn't help much with that. unless of course he needed to steal some designs from people or something. but he doubted that was an actual issue. or that the boy was even that desperate to steal from other designers. entertaining thought though. but a lot of trouble and fighting he was sure mizumi would prefer to avoid. it was then he had told him to not worry so much, the gijinka about to argue when he felt his hand over his own, flinching slightly at the surprise contact before blushing slightly, giving a lopsided smile and diverting his eyes. strange reaction? surely. the gijinka wasn't too used to friendly contact. mostly hits and powerful attacks from other pokemon. it was still something he had to adjust to. it was a slow process but he was getting there at least. he quickly changed the subject back to his previous words and returning to his argument. "i wouldn't be a very good partner if i didn't worry." he reasoned. "besides, might as well try and do some good." he smirked. "you know, me being the bad guy and all." he rolled his eyes. that was probably his biggest issue. being mistaken for a nuisance than anything around the city. how many times had he been accused for being part of team rocket now? he lost count. "as for work. like i said, i'd help out if i could. i don't really know what i could do but you know you can always call me if you need me." he reminded. "what do you usually do to get.. inspired or whatever anyway?" he asked with a tilt of the head, curious. [/style]

[mizumi halna]

"Well, I must admit, it is a lovely feeling knowing someone cares about me. I hope you enjoy it as well.. after all, I care tons about you!". He gave a smile, teasing the other. He knew his partner was rather awkward, and at times Mizumi quite enjoyed poking at him for a few giggles. Slowly pulling his hand away from the man, the cross-dresser gave a slow shrug at the question. That wasn't an easy answer, since the answer was literally anything.

"It comes from.. well, whatever it can. I can look at a flower and think up an entire dress. Red like a rose, the bottom ruffled and folded like the flowers. Make a dress with designs like the thorned stem.. or it can come from a cloudy day! Make a line of classy rain wear~ .. heck, I could even get inspiration from you!". Mizumi reached out, fingers lightly brushing through Abel's hair. "Such a beautiful colour, i'm sure many people would love something like that to wear. Honestly, it's just .. whatever strikes me the most. ..Sadly, lately, i'm just running out of ideas. I'm sure something will come eventually..ah! listen to me rambling on. I'm sorry. .. are you hungry?". This always happened when he talked about work. He rambled.

"oh yeah. i feel it." he chuckled at his teasing. at first he had actually found his caring attitude annoying, not used to people treating him nicely and unable to trust him when he did show him any random acts of kindness. but obviously he had gotten a bit more adjusted to it. he still couldn't figure out just why he cared about him but it was appreciated. being hated all the time could wear a guy out. he listened closely as he explained, looking like he was genuinely interested. well that was another thing he was good for. he was a great listener he supposed. he never understood how it worked and to be honest, even after his explanation he still didn't. he'd just have to take his word for it he supposed. he chuckled at the thought before he had mentioned getting inspiration from the gijinka as well, an idea that utterly confused him. without warning he felt as mizumi ran his fingers through his hair, once again finding himself blushing slightly at the gentle contact. he wouldn't ever admit it but he actually enjoyed being petted like that. the mere thought embarrassed him even more, the young man managing to regain his composure as his partner continued. "my hair?" he asked with a slight chuckle, taking him seriously when he mentioned people might actually like to wear it. "not to be selfish but i don't think i want to share it." he smirked playfully at his attempt at a joke. mizumi continued on, rambling about work which surprisingly didn't bother the absol too much. he was content with him taking over the conversation anyway. even if he didn't quite understand what he was taking about. but it wasn't long before the trainer had caught himself, apologizing. "heh.. it's fine. i was the one who asked." he pointed out with a chuckle as he rubbed the back of his neck. but then he had asked if he was hungry and abel looked back over to him, biting the corner of his lip. "i'm not that hungry," he began, "but if you want to go somewhere i'll tag along." he smiled. if it wasn't obvious by his lack of stomach, the absol didn't eat much. he just didn't get hungry often. of course with him being the person he was, you could never really tell if he was just not hungry or if he just didn't want anyone to feel the need to take him out for food. it was a needless burden in his opinion. unfortunately attempts never seemed to work in his favor if he did try to lie about it. he rolled his eyes at the thought.

[mizumi halna]

There was a smile on his face, greatly amused by the adorable comments from the other. Despite how much his partner liked to say, Muzum found he was very sweet. Reaching out, Mizumi grabbed the boy's hand once more and held it in his own before just smiling warmly. He really DID have a fantastic colour in his hair though! However, he still couldn't think of anything to design. Sighing a bit, the boy carelessly rested his head on the Absol's shoulder. "I am so sorry for being so dreary! My boss is just riding me very hard. I haven't slept very much.. I am certain I have more coffee than blood at this point in time.". He gave a nervous smile, but hid his face against the other's shoulder, having let go of the other's hand so not to be touching him too much.

"Are you sure..~? We could even grab some coffee and biscuits!". Like he needed more bloody coffee. Shifting a bit, The young trainer looked out to the many plants around them. He was so sure that some of these plants, flowers would inspire him. It was rather heart breaking when nothing did. Slowly lifting his head from the other, Mizumi glanced at him, offering a weak smile. "Well then.. I guess we COULD get some cocoa! it's sweet.. and will warm us up"

He was rather awkward when it came to it. Not because he hated it, it just felt strange to him. But he'd learned to get used to it when it came to Mizumi. Not that he thought he was too clingy per se but he did like to mess with him like that for some odd reason. He was starting to get a little more comfortable with it though. At least as far as allowing his trainer to do so anyway. And he knew he'd surely abuse the power if he knew that. He rolled his eyes at the thought before feeling his hand grasped once more and looking over to Zumi's warm smile. Probably the only thing that could calm him down and make him feel at peace, if even for a moment. As his partner rested against his shoulder, Abe found himself looking down to him again with a curious look as he spoke, chuckling a bit at the coffee comment. "Wouldn't doubt it." he agreed. "But maybe you should actually try to sleep. That's probably why you are having so much trouble coming up with a design." he pointed out, watching as the other hid his face in his shoulder. To be honest, he'd prefer if he just got some rest regardless. It worried him. He didn't want Mizumi getting sick or anything from lack of sleep. Bad enough the guy had to take his pain for him. "You need to take a nap later. And if I have to go to your place and make sure that happens, so be it." he smirked though was being dead serious. As if his previous statement was ignored, Zumi once again mentioned coffee, Abe's eyes narrowing slightly before he laughed. "No." he simply stated. The guy didn't need to keep himself awake anymore with caffeine. He was just lucky he didn't seem too hyper from all of it. If it was as bad as he said it was, Mizumi certainly didn't need anymore. But then he mentioned an alternative which Abe figured wouldn't hurt. "Sure. That sounds nice." he smiled in return. "It's been a while since I've had some actually." he admitted lowly, mostly to himself, waiting for the other to stand before following suit, grabbing Mizumi's things for him before he could give him the chance to interject. Not like it would matter. He wouldn't take no for an answer. He smirked at the thought, waiting for his partner to take lead. [/style]

[mizumi halna]

make it happen? Rather than taking those words as a threat, laughter was near from Mizumi as he lifted his head to gaze at his partner. Such a sweet, worrisome boy. Mizumi felt a guilty pleasure in the way the way he enjoyed seeing the other fuss. It wasn't often people fussed. Sighing a bit, he softly shook his head. "Are you going to tuck me in~? so sweet!". Bullying him, again, how brave Mizumi was. "Really though.. I will be fine! I can rest later, when I don't have such sweet company. ..I want to spend our slim time together.. well, together! not sleeping".

As the other grabbed his things, Mizumi gave a gentle protest with a huff on his face. Watching the other take his things, Mizumi looked around in case anything was left behind before joining Abel at his side. Glancing at the man, Mizumi weakly shook his head, the smile staying. He was so cute when he tried to be a gentleman. Rolling his eyes as well, mizumi whispered a thank you before leading the other through the gardens. " .. Do you come through here often? It's really quite beautiful. .. one of my favourite places in town. "

"if that's what it takes..." he spoke as he tried to regain his composure. how did this guy manage to get him to behave like this anyway? he seemed so nice and sweet. no one would probably believe him if he told them zumi was actually quite the bit of a bully towards him, messing with his emotions and embarrassing him. it wasn't too difficult though. but the absol couldn't find himself to be angry towards him for it. his partner was certainly lucky. not everyone had that chance to mess with him like that without risking getting their ass kicked by him. "oh yeah. i'm the sweetest fucker around." he spoke sarcastically with an eye roll. "but fine. don't think i wont make sure that happens though." he continued with a short chuckle. "the world wont end if you actually stop working so hard for once and rest for a bit. god knows you deserve it." he admitted, meaning it. he knew his trainer was a hard worker and he respected him for it. but there was a time when everyone needed to just take it easy and relax for a while. too bad he cant seem to follow his own advice. the small protest went unanswered and the gijinka waited patiently for his trainer before he heard a thank you from him as he began to lead him out of the garden. "it's nothing really." he assured with a soft smile. it was the least he could do. "ehhh..." he began with a bit of hesitation as he asked if he'd come here often. "not really." he simply spoke with his eyes diverted. the only times he'd been through here was when he was chasing down that damned zorua zero and he didn't have enough chance to sight see. and other times he didn't really have the leisure time or simply didn't want to go out. there wasn't much reason for him to be out here by himself so he never really bothered. and god knows if he tried he'd end up running into trouble eventually. "but i can see why it's your favorite. it's a lot more peaceful than the rest of the town." he agreed. it was a shame he couldn't find himself coming here. it might help him calm down. just being there was already calming him down quite a bit and making him feel less tense. "knowing you, you'll probably start dragging me here more often though." he teased with a chuckle. [/style]

[style=font-size: 8px; text-align: center;]made by katya of ote[/style]

[mizumi halna]

He knew Abel was right. He needed some rest, but work had been knawing at his mind so hard, he wasn't sure he COULD sleep even if he tried! The few times he did try to sleep, it was far too hard! He just thought of how far behind he was, stressed, then couldn't bring himself to calm down enough to rest. By the time he relaxed, it was around sunrise and time to go to the office. Slowly shaking his head, Mizumi smiled rather nervously as he stared ahead. "I'll.. try to take some PM pills tonight. See where it gets me? .. I promise sleep tonight, really~"

Drag him here more often? The statement earned a laugh and Mizumi nodded, stealing a peek at the other before carefully crossing his arms behind his back, a playful hum on his lips. "Of course! You are lucky I thought better of making you a pretty ring of flowers for that pretty mop of silver". Teasing! Maybe. Walking along the premade path through the garden, he could stop only once in a while to peer at certain flowers or ferns. "I try to sketch them sometimes, the flowers.. though my boss isn't too impressed when I use up my work book on drawing daisy's.". So his boss said, yet, more than once Mizumi had found some of his 'confiscated' flower drawings in the man's office. Interesting.

"i'll take your word for it." he finally agreed. "if you can trust me with not getting into fights too much, i'll trust you to take it easy and get some rest for a change." he smiled softly. he didn't mean to be so fussy about it. but mizumi would just have to get used to it. wasn't going to change anytime soon. it was probably the one thing he didn't mind worrying about to be honest. at least he had a choice in this case. being a pokemon that could sense disasters nearly 24/7 was never really fun. he looked over to him as he spoke, an unamused look on his face when he mentioned the ring of flowers. "psshh... yeah i'm real lucky. nothing says manly like a flower tiara." he muttered. he wouldn't put it past him. and him being the 'nice' guy he was, he probably would have felt bad for not utilizing such a gift and would have most likely ended up wearing it till he wasn't in the other's company. he sighed at the thought. zumi was lucky. only he could manage to make a fool out of him without risking getting in trouble for it. as he stopped occasionally, abel watched, looking towards the plants that had caught his trainer's attention, unsure what it was that made him pause till he finally explained. "oh really?" he asked as he looked specifically at the flowers now, sure his partner was capable of replicating them pretty well. "you'll have to show me." he commented, honestly interested in it. he wasn't much of an artist himself but he had to admit, he liked the stuff mizumi managed to draw. shame his boss didn't like it though. gave him an idea though. he was sure he could afford a sketch book or something for him. he kept that idea to himself though, not wanting to risk a complaint from him for even considering it.

Oh, he was more than sure Abel would have let him drizzle pretty flowers in that lovely hair. He would have let him kiss his forehead and say he looks cute too. What a darling he was. Honestly, he was greatly blessed to have such a gentle partner. If Mizumi had been stuck with someone rough, cruel or cold - much like he had assumed to get - he doubt troubling times like this would have been so easy to deal with.

"I'd love to! didn't think you'd be too interested in drawings of flowers". Smiling a bit, he reached out slowly to brush his fingers against one of the petals, but only for a moment before his hands quickly yanked away. Moving his hands once against behind his back, Mizumi set himself beside the young man once more, looking towards him with a smirk as he lightly nudged the man's shoulder. "Any certain cafe you want, or can I just pick a random one and hope you don't get a shitty joint~?"
