She watched the girl’s eyes look at Cryogonal and watched as she rubbed her eyes as if she didn’t think he was real.
Has she never seen a Pokemon before?
“I’m.. Touko. Pleased to meet you. And this is Cry..”Ringo twitched as she tried her best to avoid the small creature standing next to the girl. Surely it was just a figment of her imagination, yes. What other explanation could there be?
She shook her head reluctantly, Snap out of it, Ringo! If you keep up this absurdity, she’ll think you’re some kind of lunatic!
wait … wh-what if I already am……?!?!
Of course, Ringo was mentally freaking out. She hoped that she wouldn’t have to get herself checked in some psychiatric hospital.
“…—”
— After what seemed like minutes (but was probably only about 10 seconds), she came to the conclusion that lack of sleep was the reason behind the “hallucinations”, she finally calmed down.
Just in time! The girl finished introducing herself, and Ringo forced a smile, making it seem as if though everything was all good and nothing was wrong. She was always good at faking smiles, pretending that everything was all right. It was a talent, you could say.
“Ha.Ha.Ha. It’s nice to meet you, Tou—”
“Wait—! What?!”
Oh look, maybe our bob-cut brunette wasn’t crazy after all.
The girl was extremely quiet for a bit and she wondered if there was something wrong with the girl. The girl’s reactions to Cryogonal were quite the fun to watch and she knew the girl definitely has never seen Pokemon before.
I wonder where she’s from. She can’t be from any of the regions..
“It’s nice to meet you too…. Erm.. Is everything alrig- W-What do you mean what? It’s simple! I’m Touko and the Pokemon beside me is Cry!”
She got a bit red when the girl still couldn’t understand. She hasn’t ever met a person that didn’t know about Pokemon before and it ticked her how she was treating Cryogonal like he was weird. She gave the Pokemon a gentle pat and smile.
