Julian Arrowind had actually begun his time as a trainer just a few months before her, as he had received a young Dratini around the same time that Hitomi was given her eggs. However, she had insisted that he wait for her before he go any further then seagrove town, just up the street, and the seventeen year old girl could be very persuasive when she wanted to be. As such, Julian stayed in the local area and trained up his Dratini, which resulted in the capture of his second partner, an Abra, at the same time. While the young girl kicked on the door to the point where it threatened to topple over, Julian was up in his room reading a book, both of his pokemon goofing off around his room, as he didn't keep them confined to their pokeballs while he was home. Dratini was exploring the room, trying to find something to eat, while the Abra napped in the corner, occasionally causing an illusion of a berry to appear before the little dragon worm in order to taunt it.<br/><br/>Julian winced heavily, as he heard the brutal assault on his front door even from his position in the second floor, knowing full well that the only person who would do such a thing was Hitomi, and only when she was very, very excited about something. The brown haired 18 year old made his way downstairs at a rather casual pace, opening the door and sparing the wood from any continued abuse that her foot would administer. He looked down at the two adorable little bugs that she held draped around her chest, and he couldn't help but smile softly, which was the most that he ever did anyway. Anybody that knew the young man as well as Hitomi did would be fully aware that he was quite happy for her, but that he wasn't very good at letting out his emotions, he had always been rather closed off anyway.<br/>"I see, so they finally hatched, huh?"<br/><br/>He reached over, scratching one of them on the head.<br/>"Better keep them away from Dratini, or the little guy will try to eat them."<br/><br/>As the two teenagers were fully aware, Julian's Dratini had an absurd appetite.
