"Ya suck at bein' nice, huh."
His cheek fins droop a bit. Hm. Now this is just akward. "Ya hate me that much?" Guess he's used to it. Part of it was probably deserved, and yet...
"'Kay, hear me out: if I give ya one free punch will ya stop bein' so fuckin', iunno. Tensed up?"
"Uhu, sure."
Oh, great. Smalltalk. His fucking favorite.
He starts dangling backwards, looking around, keeping in a sigh. Oh my goooood this is annoying.
His leg is bouncing, besties.
"Got somethin' else to say, or."
Being kind is so hard.
Aaaand they're rolling back. He might've underestimated the pain that still lingered in his body. Archie winces briefly, but he's not gonna let it stop their fun.
Normally he'd continue fighting, but his side is screaming at him to Not Do That right now... So naturally, he attempts it again-- --Yep, Guzma's still on top after a failed attempt. Okay, let's try something else, then. A hand reaches for Guzma's back, and he digs in his nails, returning the favour.
Oh this is happening alright, in his own goddamn terms--
"-fuck!"
…nevermind I fucking guess. Guzma remained stunned for half a second before letting out yet another sgrunt, the hand on Archie's jaw tightening as he--
…yeah, he's trying to roll then over again - one hand on the former Aqua's face, another sliding under his shirt, nails dragged on his back, mouth a little too occupied on the other's to saw anything sarcastic.
Alola's weirdest wrestling match.
"Ya gonna rat me out, huh?"
There's a moment of silence on his side too, but then-- "BWAHAHA!!" Followed by an "Oof--" When will he learn that laughing this hard is still off limits. He can't help it, though.
"It's bound t' happen sooner rather than later. I'd prefer to tell him myself, but. I getcha. Yer loyal t' yer boss, and I love t'see it. Also, fridge time sounds awful." He's not sure what it means, but if the kid wanted to avoid it, it must suck.
"Can't stop ya either. Kinda stuck like this. Jus' hope I don't get thrown back 'cause I'd be done fer."
"Ah. Yeah. Of course.
Merfolk Aqua boss." another moment of silence "Former Aqua. Sure. Sorry. Okayyyy.
This is the worst life of his life. Taking a long, deep breath as he goes further down, ending on the floor, PJ crosses his arms, sighting as loudly as he could.
"...you know I should, like-- tell the boss who you are, right? No 'cause he's cool and all but if he finds out he has an eco-terrorist in sis' bathtub and I knew all along I would end up on top of the fridge for weeks-"
@livingshinycharm has a solution to boredom: Pushes a paddle ball under the door toward the tub.
"..." Well, he appreciates the effort, even if he'd rather not leave the tub right now. Maybe he'd pick it up later? "Thanks, scamp."
i feel like archie got loaned a switch and is currently addicted to like. Pokémon Crossing or something cause he ain't working with me ))
@gnzma i think i deserve a little respect. [ bc i had to hold him back from sending the ass one ]
"...I ne'er said I didn't respect ya?" Huh. Confusing. He did actually have some respect for the other at least. "But fine. What do ya want me t'do t'prove it?"
@whereskymeetsea // Gameverse: "I think this went on for long enough, yeah?" For someone her age, who just ripped through an entire evil base, Sapphire seemed way too calm. She beamed with the pride only a teenager could have, a PokèBall tossed in the air just to get caught once more in her left hand, the right on her hips. "What will it be, captain? Do you want to quit the easy way or the fun way?:
Her being here meant one single thing. His entire base got wiped.
And yet, he's grinning. No, laughing. His laughter bellows through the room, despite his grunts and admins being unable to fight. He's the last hurdle now. The only one who can protect this plan of his.
"Ya think so? But it was jus' gettin' fun!" Archie reaches for his belt clip. "O' course we're doing this the fun way! Who do ya take me fer??"
@mnstcrbnll // PJ entered the room: enters the bathroom bc plumes needed something. stops. sees archie. slowly closes the door. what the fuckkkk
Uh oh. What was that look for. "Oi-- C'mon back in f'r a sec--"
"...Y'know you're allowed to say somethin' else than 'Oh beans' right."
What even is this team he's ended up in the middle of. "Like, yanno, 'Holy shitballs' 'r summin."
A sigh, clawed hand resting on the injury he sustained earlier this week.
"Still-- Ain't this the admin's bathroom? I would've kicked ya out o' the team if I found ya in my private room back then."
" Im notnsure biteing them will make my pockets any bigger....plus I dont know where they have been.."
She didnt even register the tsil at first.
"Like why cant i put my hand in my pocket! Sure its an excuse to use a REALLY cute Buneary backpack but like I wanna use a pocket too!..."
Processing

"OH BEANS! You have a fish tail! Neat!"
"I jus' wanna ask ya somethin'... I can't even really like. Leave this thing. Promise."
Yeah okay he has a feeling he's kinda fucked now.
