"But...we met," Nobody said. "I didn't run into a togekiss, a magikarp, not even another absol, I ran into you, Lucario and Dratini. It wasn't random, so, that's enough." That was his reason, it was good enough really. Made sense to him. "And what are you talking about. I'm the disaster pokemon, not you. If anything, people wouldn't be happy to see me again. Or you know, ever," he stopped before he depressed himself. "I won't be the only one, others will be glad too, so you should meet others and they'll know to be happy to see you!" Tsukiya gave him that 'you are one crazy plush' look again. Hm, maybe his logic wasn't universal. Moving on...
"What? Grateful?" Nobody's smile quirked. "Ahaha, you're welcome!" Sure, he had no idea what the big deal was, the whatever it was ran off without a fuss so he didn't really do anything. I guess I shouldn't say much, at least Tsukiya is a bit casual now. He did seem anxious before, probably because I came out of nowhere into his space. Hm, privacy, must be super important to him. He stretched again, watching the clouds move further and further away. Away from each other.
"Hm," Tsukiya's question was something he thought about all the time. Even when Nobody didn't realize he was daydreaming his thoughts would turn to this subject. "Of course. I was already real--" he stopped. Wait, this isn't the time. I shouldn't be saying that. Nobody rolled onto his back, onto his side, partially away from Tsukiya. It still doesn't feel right, even though I know I was real. Before, with that other trainer. And my team...they're looking for me, I know they are. I just can't...face them like this. What would Sumaru say? ...after he psychic's a tree into me that is. He laughed a little. No, guess I'll wait on that. Don't want Tsukiya to think I'm even crazier than he already does.
"Yeah!" He kind of shouted. "Someday, maybe we can all become real, for real..." Nobody tilted his head back. "That'd be amazing."

Tsukiya thought it would be too complicated if others would care to see him. He might have to help them, sacrifice his own time, and make small chatter, like he was doing now. He didn't like the idea much. For now, he was content on not meeting any one plush too many times. Clearly, they didn't agree on that matter, but Tsukiya didn't mind, and decided not to argue his point.
The Absol smiled and said 'you're welcome' when the Umbreon was grateful to have been saved from drowning in the river. Tsukiya blushed because he was embarrassed that what he had said sounded like he wanted the Absol around. Good thing the Umbreon's coat was pitch black. There was more to the story that he had not mentioned. Tsukiya couldn't jeopardize the security of his secret cliff by making the Absol angry, and therefore, had to go along with what he was saying. He had been careful to crop out words that might make the other unhappy.
It sounded like the Absol was about to say something else, before stopping himself, and changing the subject slightly. Tsukiya noticed, but whatever the other plush didn't want to say, he wasn't going to make him.
Back to the being real topic. "Have you seen any real pokemon? Not plush." Tsukiya furrowed his brow. He had just come up with the question on the spot, and hadn't even thought about this himself. He hadn't seen any that weren't plush at all. All he had seen were creatures resembling pokemon, though he sometimes weren't sure what they were. Surely there must be some around?

"Not plush? Sure, I mean...yeah!" Nobody rolled over, facing Tsukiya again. "Um...none in the pokemon center, but I figure they were being healed." He paused, waiting for some more evidence to come to mind. "But there have to be, somewhere, I'm positive."
Tsukiya hardly seemed convinced. And Nobody was wavering just slightly himself. I haven't. Maybe my trainer has, when she's totting me around in her bag. Yeah, oh, I wish I could talk to her. She'd prove it. Afterall, my team's out there, and they can't be plushies. Horatio would be appalled and Sumaru, well, after blowing everything up, he'd probably kill himself.
Nobody continued to reassure himself. And again for good measure. His head hurt. This soothing night out was costing him a lot more intellectual power than he was expecting. It's nice to see Tsukiya again, but tomorrow I think I'll go somewhere else. He closed his eyes and tried to relax. Everything will be simpler when he's back with his team.
"Tsukiya," he didn't wait for a response. "We should go find the other plushies. One of them should have seen a real pokemon. Or maybe another creature like we saw earlier. Want to?"

Tsukiya didn't want to seek out the plush they had met before, and instead suggested what would be a better idea to him; "We should find a real pokemon ourselves."
"It's still nighttime. Most other plush would be sleeping," he added to deter the Absol from arguing his point. It was also because it was true. They were the only two plush that would be awake at night out of the group they were with earlier. That was, unless, the Absol wanted to sneak into their trainer's houses, but Tsukiya somehow didn't think the Absol would be up for doing that. Maybe he hadn't thought about his idea fully through.
Tsukiya got up, and turned towards their only exit. Might as well do some exploring. Just to keep from having to talk too much. It hadn't been twenty minutes, and the Umbreon plush was running out of chat topics. He glanced back to see if the Absol was following.

"Just us? Hm..." he wasn't worried about their safety. Nobody was confident in his abilities, even if he was a plush, and Tsukiya looked competent. If nothing else, he could probably sneak away if something happened. He would have thought it over more, but Tsukiya was already leaving!
"Uh! Wait up!" Nobody hurried next to the other dark-type, watching as their meeting spot slowly disappeared behind bushes and trees. He wasn't sure where they were going, but he paid enough attention to be able to find his way back. His trainer would be worried if he wasn't back in that room by a decent hour. Then again, how long could this expedition take really. Surely there were pokemon around. If not, maybe some other plushies. Or, creatures, or...my teammates. A sign of them... It was wishful thinking, he had to be patient. He only woke up as a plush a few days ago, there was still plenty of time. And considering all that, he was already out exploring without his trainer, that was a considerable achievement.
"So, do you know where we're going? I guess they could be anywhere...oh, another secret spot?" Nobody didn't mean to pry, but awkward silence was kind of awkward, especially if they had each other for company.

When Tsukiya saw that the Absol was following, he led the way down from the cliff. He walked in a leisurely pace, uncertain of their destination, and not caring to plan it all out.
After a couple of meters, the Absol spoke first. It seemed like the silence bother him in a way that didn't bother the Umbreon. "There's no more secret spots," Tsukiya replied. If there were, I certainly won't be one to lead anyone to it.
It was a couple of paces further down the hill when Tsukiya continued, "The river that could be seen from the cliff. If we could just get down there... wild Pokemon must come to drink, right?"
Though he stated it as a question, he didn't mind whether, or not the Absol replied. The Umbreon was focused on getting closer to the roar of the rushing waters below, and not on making conversation.
