```Finally some well-deserved vacation.```

It's been about time, Ilima was allowed to take a nice break from his hard work. He was a hard working, dedicated person. He loved his work as much as he loved his Pokémons. 

He was from a rather warm and exotic region, Alola, which had 4 official islands, each of them having trial captains that was kind of replacing gym leaders.
Why such a change? Well, Alolan people were very attached to their culture, and so they refused to change their system: trial captains were between the age of 11 and 19. They got to retire at the age of 20, this year was the last year Ilima got to hold his trial on MeleMele island, *He was wondering who would take his place after him*. 

Usually, an island would count at least two trials, though in MeleMele, there was only one, and it was his. Unfortunately, it gave him lot of work. *Paperwork and reports, the duty to guide trainers...* It was all very tiring but he didn't really complain: he got to meet lot of amazing and interesting people.

If anything, he was rather sad to know he'd have to give his place away. But oh well, perhaps he could watch from the shadows!

But for now, he decided to forget about all this work and occupations he always wore on his shoulders and take some time for himself, and let all the stress being swept away from his body.

He was quite fond of theaters plays, *Even if he probably never mentioned it to anyone*. It's been a hot minute since he last could assist to a stage play! He was delighted to have this time for himself now, learning new things and enlarging his cultural knowledge was what he enjoyed the most. 

For now, he decided to take a sit in the front as he was rather small, he'd rather be there than see people's head floating in front of him as he just tried to enjoy the show. 

It didn't start just yet and still had to wait a solid 10 minutes until the show would begin... 

*He was rather excited for it to begin.*

```And what is the use of a book, 'without pictures or conversation?```

Grimsley had been on this island for a couple of days now and he most certainly was taking the time to allow his stressful thought process to unwind in a place like this. He was on holiday for crying out loud! He needn't have to sit down to worry about what he had done wrong and what he was going to have to do when he went back home. 

His mind was always going off into thoughts, one thing leading to another, one thing always making him feel more stressed and panicked then he anticipated things to be although the way he acted to things always built up the solid brick wall that he was confident, that he had full control of the events that happened in his life. 

Life was a bore if you chose to live it like anybody else, you need to add at least a small bit of excitement to it. That excitement for Grimsley was doing simple little things that would rely on chance. He even made himself a custom deck of cards where he would have different written fates that would either benefit him or affect him negatively. It made him think off when he would go out and bet precious things off him whether it be his money or something even greater than that. 

Like any other person that had come on the island he had the intentions of exploring around. Earlier on in the day his eyes had been intrigued by the mentions of a theatrical play. Though he wasn't fond of them it wouldn't hurt him if he tried to go by and watch a single play. Alas that's why he found himself here in the theatre and by the looks off it he was a bit early too. 

It didn't hurt to be punctual right? He took a seat by the front as his ticket number had told him to but... Did his eyes deceive him? He nearly caught himself staring at the pink haired man sitting not too far away. He cleared his throat slightly. 


"Pardon me, I can't help but feel like I've met you before."

```A new encounter, perhaps familiar.```

It's been some days as well that he's arrived on the island as well, ah how relaxing it was. He was happy he didn't have to think about work constantly, over and over again, that he didn't have to remember he had to write reports about a certain Team Skull causing troubles on his cherished home's lands. He had to often teach them a lesson, not that they were that evil but they were such troublemakers and they were indeed quite bothersome, but except that? It was a piece of cake to have them go away, they'd always complain to their boss and there was indeed situation where they both got in an argument but, in the end he always ended up winning, proudly. 

He had of course the intention to explore around, he was a curious bean *(Although he already visited some shops and such before)*. He quite enjoyed doing shopping, if anything he always did his best to look presentable and charming: he was very self-conscious of his image. 

But soon enough he was met with a rather tall man, raven hair and icy, sharp blue eyes, wearing a yellow scarf with a ocean deep blue suit, in a way he felt like he saw him somewhere before as well, it made him blink a few times before giving the man a soft, inviting smile as he tried to start a conversation. 

"Why, good afternoon sir. Perhaps you might be mistaking, though I would not be surprised in the slightest if you indeed met me somewhere one day." 
He spoke politely, bowing his head just slightly in respect as he greeted him, such rare respect and politeness nowadays that was sealed inside one man.
