"Oh my bad, I misunderstood." Gold nodded and rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "The last time I had a funnel cake I just had it plain but let's see here.." 

Gold eyed all the jam toppings before eventually narrowing down on one choice. "I think I'll take pecha berry jam. Pecha berries have always been my favorite, aside from oran and nanab." 

It took a few minutes before the funnel cakes were all fried up and ready and served at the window. Gold grabbed his funnel cake and then began looking for a picnic table for them to sit down at. Once he found an empty table, he went an grabbed it, sliding into one of the seats. 

"So you said you just showed up here with no invitation? That's kind of bad ass, but I'm sure this.. Amelia person won't mind." He laughed a bit. "I mean, you are really good at Pokemon battles, you have a really strong team." Gold tore off a piece of his funnel cake and took a bit, quietly savoring the flavor before speaking again. 

"Mm! Delicious... Probably full of calories, sugar and regret but I don't care." Gold snickered a bit. "How's yours?"

**After quite the time, it seemed Gloria wasn't listening at all, rather she had her head stuck up somewhere as she thought silently. Reason to this as while she was picking up her Pomeg topping funnel cake, Rotom was taking pictures and buzzing something to her about her now newly acquaintanced, Ethan, also the former champion of Jhoto had apparently bested Red in a battle before, the person she had been seeking out ever since this damn gym challenge pause. 

But it got her thinking, why was she even doing this? I mean sure she wanted to get ready for hitting the impossible, no, overcoming the impossible in the moment really, but why? She was kind of dragged into this journey from the start and she planned on finishing it but why exactly? Wasn't she going to succeed Sonia when she became professor ..? Why exactly was she doing this still anyways?**

***Wait-***
**After a few moments however, she caught on, perking her head up, she had only heard his question,** ***Oh... My funnel cake?***
*"* Oh it's pretty sweet.. But spicy and bitter too... I like it alot actually *"* **She grinned lightly wiping a small portion that accidentally got onto the tip of her nose while she tried to bite in. It was like trying to avoid getting the snow white sugar on your shirt too in carnivals, it's a normal thing though.**

Gold smiled. "Glad you like it!" He watched her curiously as he continued to take a few more bites of his funnel cake. She seemed deep in thought, but at the same time she had no idea what was on her mind, or if anything was bothering her. Was it him? He wasn't sure. 

Gold was in a fairly similar position as Gloria, he had no idea why he was doing what he did most of the time. He was always willing to lend a helping hand and explore where ever life took him, but beyond that he had no real goal. 

Part of him hoped that he would just be forgotten from Johto history, but he knew that wouldn't be the case. Even years after disbanding Team Rocket for the final time, he still got approached and recognized by people. Gloria was no exception. He just knew he was enjoying what time he had on the island and was happy to have come across Gloria. She seemed like a sweet girl. 

"Hey.. Are you alright? Seems like you're lost in thought or something's on your mind." He let out a small laugh as he seemed to devour half of his funnel cake. "I like to think I'm a good listener."

*"* Oh- OH WELL- I uhm... *"*
**Her cheeks flared up a bit in embarrassment, she doesn't quite like being exposed a little especially when she had to explain what was even happening in the first place as she darted her eyes down to her funnel cake getting a napkin to wipe her hands before explaining. She wasn't actually planning to eat the whole thing, she enjoyed sharing a lot so she thought of giving this to her Sylveon who enjoyed spicy sweet stuff as well.**
*"* I guess- Well, how do I say this... ... *"* **She paused as her face started to fade back to normal once she calmed herself down, her cheeks just hinting a little pink,** *"* Well actually to tell you the truth, I actually came here in search for Red, I heard he's crazy strong and probably even better than Leon but.. *"* **Her fingers fumbled a bit with the napkin she held,** *"* I was actually thinking of you- BUT DON'T GET THE WRONG IDEA! I just well... Rotom took some pictures and uploaded them *Without my permission* Onto that weird new app that every hotel resident has.. You know .. .? And well.. I was thinking- Actually let me get to the point here... *"*
**She suddenly got up from the table and stood firmly before handing him a card, it wasn't just any card, it was a** ***Trainer card, one of her originals.***
*"* Ethan, I challenge you to a battle, you in or out? Because im pretty serious about this.. *"*
