#he's so far removed from the civilization lmao Thor wouldn't have any preconceived notions about dai. just thinks he's a weird kid who

[bxtonpxss]

An ear would twitch at the comment on his appearance, and well if his tail happened to speed up just a little bit more at the word he wasn't going to say anything. When the redhead sits, bringing the basket with him, Thor backs off and plants his front paws back on the ground, sitting patiently. Although the items within the basket were named, the words meant little to his wild self.

He only recognized the cookies, cupcakes, and bread because he'd sometimes see trainers eating them as they passed through. His eyes dart over each object before his paw reaches out and he grabs one of the round breads. Bringing it to his muzzle the rodent sniffs it a few times catching the sweet scent of berries and something else he couldn't name.

Just as he goes to take a bite the request to take one of the many treats available makes the mouse pause. ["Huh?"] He blinks, eyes narrowing in a confused squint then nods insistently. ["Yeah, of course!"] No idea why he needed to ask, he’s the one who stole it so he got first pick anyway!

Thor bites into the bread, letting out a small noise of delight at the cream and fruit surprise in the middle. The bright orange fur around his mouth is quickly stained by sweet cream and berry juice and he's completely unbothered by the mess. One ear is swiveled in the other's direction listening, whilst he finishes demolishing that pastry and moves onto the next.

Grabbing a cookie to scarf down this time, he hums at the offer of keeping all this food for himself, but it was just him and Glitch. They really didn't need all these sweets. He looks over the contents of the basket again and grabs one of the nut breads and a scone for himself, then a few more things to save for later. He sets the items aside, curling his tail around them--a pretzel, a tart, and another cream bread. With his chosen snacks secured, Thor places a paw on the basket edge that was closest to him and pushes it back towards the boy. ["We can share!"]

He's in the middle of stuffing his mouth full of the nut bread when he finally gets a name from the nice human. Loud smacking noises escape the chu as the redhead introduces himself. He also mentions something about there being another him that could understand him, but that just didn't make any sense because it was only the two of them here. But if he says he'd be able to understand him he's willing to endure the oddness for a while.

["Your name's kinda funny, but it's nice to meet you Niwa Daisuke!"] He says after gulping down the rest of the bread, then nibbling his way around the scone. ["You can call me Thor, thanks for the food!"]

cute ... but he probably shouldn't have said that out loud at all , right ? even pokemon had their tough pride at times , and no matter how adorable it was to watch a tail excitedly whip through the dirt , sometimes it was better not to bring it up --- the same way he's happy to find that the other didn't seem to mind the difference in appearance too much .

what did it matter when there was something good to eat , right ? daisuke quietly kneels , setting the basket onto the ground in offering . even if he had already taken his time to enjoy plenty of sweets before , the strong aromatic smell lures him in once more . long legs cross and he ends up seating himself as he admires his own robbed bounty .

' look , the pretzels are still warm and soft , see ? but there's also nut breads , cream breads , ones with fruit and berries inside of them ... cookies , tarts , scones ... ha , even a few cupcakes , too ... ! ' despite his excitement , the thief's fingers still touch carefully and gingerly at an article . he removes it , a single cookie delectably speckled with berries and chocolate .

' do you mind ... if i have one ? ' if only to celebrate his simple success . ' you can have the rest . though , can you eat everything all by yourself --- ? ' raichu were pretty big ... if it was anything like feeding a small child , then maybe the basket would be emptied in an instant . ' you can always call and give some things to your friends , ' he tries to suggest anyways , imagining too what it might be like to have a picnic ; an even greater , grander gathering and feast .

... but maybe that was too much , at least for someone stealing baskets from a bakery , just for a little bit ; something he's sure the owner could forgive , unlike if he brought the shop to ruin by pillaging it of its entirety . maybe it was enough , at least if only in this moment , for things to be just him and them . if only he could hear their true voice ---

dark --- wake up , i need you . ( --- hn ? )

' my name , ' he wonders what to say at first , then continues . ' is niwa daisuke . i'm sorry that i can't understand you , but there's another ... another me that can . i know that pokemon sometimes give themselves names , special ones , something they wanted to be called . that's why i want to ask --- do you have one ?
