There had been one particular vision that had kept on recurring for the past few weeks now—even Kouji didn’t know why it kept on coming back to haunt him, so to speak. Although he’d initially seen it in flashes, never had it come to the point that his mind’s eye would always alert him to this… this particular scene.
While it didn’t look like there was anything wrong, he couldn’t help but think that the figure he kept seeing in them was very familiar.
It wasn’t until today (in particular, just a few minutes ago) that the vision had dropped by again, this time causing his own nose to suddenly erupt in a spurt of blood—as he’d chosen to particularly focus on what he was seeing. This then left him with the beginnings of a migraine, as well as his own nose bleeding rather heavily for a few minutes.
Once he’d crammed enough medicines to keep the migraine at bay (and had applied enough ice to his nose to cause premature frostbite) he then cleaned up, changing into a cleaner shirt (his jeans were fine) before heading down and out of the Sanctuary, locking up for the meantime.
It took him the better part of ten minutes to navigate through the streets of Alterna on his dirt bike, but once he’d arrived in front of the other individual’s Ranch, he knew that he’d done right to drop by and check up on her—but now, how was he going to explain how he got there, without sounding so incredibly awkward?
Hopping off the motorbike, he turned off the ignition, and held the helmet under his right arm as he made his way through the front, before knocking on the glass door that led to the vibrant place which Elayne Laurent called her home.

Elayne had been doing a little better... well, sorta. It was still hard to get out of bed sometimes but today was a better day. Haiiro and Felis had been amazing and well, it seemed her body was forcing her to take it easy lately with how sick she'd gotten after standing in the rain that day. Truth be told, she was only feeling moderately better but with Felis and Haiiro out for a while, she took the opportunity to walk around and take care of a few of the babies. She shouldn't have been up, Elayne knew that well enough but well, was it wrong to want to do something to help out every so often? After a few hours, Elayne finally had the good sense to call it quits and went back to the main house. She had just settled down to try and relax with a movie and a cup of hot chocolate when she heard a knock on the door. It took her longer than usual to finally convince herself that getting up was a good idea and stood up, wrapping a blanket around her shoulders. Despite how miserable she felt, if there was a customer here, she should at least try and put on her best face. Even with the light smile on her face, what Kouji would see when Elayne finally did open the door was obviously far from her 'best' face. In fact, Elayne looked probably as miserable as she felt but well, that was partly her own fault. "Good afternoon~,"Elayne murmured, her tone overly cheery to try to make up for her miserable appearance. Considering she was still dressed in warm, fuzzy pajamas complete with a matching pair of slippers, she hardly looked like the professional she was supposed to be in this situation. Upon seeing Kouji on the other side of the door, Elayne's smile grew slightly. Well, he wasn't necessarily a customer but they were friends. Her smile faded slightly from something clearly forced to something a little more warm. "Hey Kouji, I was just gonna put on a movie. Wanna come in?" Elayne murmured, opening the door a little wider while wrapping the blanket closer around her. Yeah, seeing Kouji was a lot better than trying to figure out how to appear normal and professional to a customer.

It wasn’t until a few moments after he’d arrived in front of Elayne’s ranch did he realize he’d forgotten to bring something over—but he could easily rectify that. Once said door opened, though, he wasn’t exactly prepared to see his fellow Breeder looking like something out of a… well, let’s not go there.
“You sure you’re okay? You look down,” he said by way of greeting, waiting until the door had been opened so that he could slip on. Once he’d wiped his sneakers down on the mat outside and slipped inside, he then closed the door shut behind him. “You look under the weather… want to talk about it? I mean, it’s okay if you don’t want to…” he continued, once he was properly inside.
“I can get us some food if you want… do you want pizza? Or anything?” he inquired, reaching into his jacket pocket for his phone and sliding it out. “If you need someone to talk to, well, it’s better I’m here in person… rather than over the phone,” he added with another embarrassed, apologetic grin on his face.

The greeting she received was unexpected to say the least. Elayne stared at Kouji for a few moments, not entirely sure what to say but there was a clear look of surprised confusion on her features. All she had said was that she was going to start a movie? As for the second part, it was pretty obvious she was sick so, surely she could be forgiven for not being the perfect hostess right then. Regardless, she gave an apologetic smile to Kouji and shook her head. "I'm sick, if that's what you mean... have been for a few days. It's not that big a deal, I was just about to curl up with cocoa and a movie but you're welcome to join me," Elayne offered, closing the door behind Kouji and wrapping the blanket closer around herself. Kouji went on again, extending an offer for food which... didn't sound appealing in the slightest. Of course, not much did when she was sick so there was that too. "Sorry, that's sweet of you but no thanks. I'm not terribly hungry." Moving to the couch, Elayne curled up in the blanket, blinking a little as Kouji reiterated wanting to talk? Ummm... ok? She was actually doing pretty well right then all things considered. In fact, she was touched that Kouji cared enough to check in on her but at the same time it was... strange that he'd emphasized at least three times that she didn't look alright. Well, that was obvious just by looking at her but it was more physical than anything... at least for the time being. "Again, I'm as alright as I can be while sick. Thank you, but unless you know a magical cure for colds I'm afraid there's very little you can do." That last part was something of a tease. Elayne didn't expect Kouji to actually do anything. Besides, helping with the Pokemon earlier had helped lighten her mood. Even if she wasn't technically supposed to be out of bed, it had helped and that's all that mattered.
