~Pokémon SW&SH: Raihan X Listener SFW: Little Things~ {Patreon Exclusive}

A downpour in Galar isn't the most uncommon thing in the world by a long shot, but did it have to happen now?

Contains: Rain, Comfort, Date Gone Wrong, Confessions, Pre-Established Relationship

I literally just realized we did Raihan last month too but here we are lol. I wanted to be cheeky and make an audio that's called/uses the words, "the little things in it" because I thought it would be fun. Also, I wanted to have like a little insight to maybe how Raihan thinks about their relationship, and how he's pretty chill when it comes to most subjects, since really the only time he gets super fired up is when he's battling someone lol. I kind of wanted his love language to be time spent together, and to explore that a little bit and talk about what that might be like to him. I know it's a little shorter than most SFW audios, but I hope you all enjoy it regardless!

~Audio Transcript Below~

*Rain sounds*

*door opening and closing*

Raihan: Ah....that downpour came out of nowhere........you didn't get too drenched did you?

*pause*

Good, I didn't either....thankfully we got inside quick enough......that's Galar for you....always ready to rain at a moment's notice.......ain't that just the way?

*pause*

Hey, what's the matter? Did you get hurt or something while we were running inside?

*pause*

I know we don't get a lot of time together since you're the Champion and I'm the leader of the Hammerlock Gym.....I don't see why--

*pause*

Ah....I do see.....you're upset because our plans kinda got buggered cause of the rain.....

Well....I wouldn't exactly say.....ruined......I don't think it's that big of a deal.....

*pause*

I'm sorry....that was.....the wrong way to say that.....you're right.......I--

*sighs* What I mean was...is that yeah....I'm bummed that our date got rained on.....but....the fact that we can still spend time together.......albeit.....not like we originally planned.....still means that we spend time together.....

And like.....base line.....that's all I really care about.......

Spending time....with you......

And like.....I appreciate and.....really enjoy making plans with you, and going out or staying in to do things, to experience....life together......but....you don't have to worry about trying to make our time together as....memorable as possible or---more like....not everything has to be....meaningful isn't the right word.....but...I'm not going to leave you because we don't go on lavish dates all the time.......I just.....I love spending time with you......that's what matters to me.....the fact that I'm with you......

I would be content with just us....sitting in a room together.....doing two....completely different things because....your presence is....such a soothing and wonderful thing to me......

It...doesn't matter what happens around us.....when we're together.....it's like the whole world stops around me.....and all that I see, all that I care about......is you......

No matter how big or how small, or how action packed or bereft of things to do our time together is......it's all precious to me......

*pause*

*chuckles*

I don't really consider myself someone who is.....famously good with relationships or, shit like that but.....I find that sometimes....it's the little things you sometimes overlook.....that are....some of the best parts about a relationship......

Bottom line is.....I love you......and I love to spend time with you, no matter how that time is spent.......

*soft kiss*

S'alright.....you have every right to be upset about something you were looking forward to not going to plan.......I'm not angry at you at all for it.......

And I'm sorry if at first I seemed....insensitive to that.......the fact that the rain, buggering up our date upset you.....

*pause*

Then everything is all square......no anger on either side, right?

*chuckles softly* Good.

*soft kiss*

Now.....I know that it's not...exactly what we had planned and everything......but.......a good date thing to do on a rainy day is maybe like.....go to the cinema.........there's that new film out.....the one where there's a Pikachu and it's like a detective and it can talk and shit....we could get a whole bunch of snacks there and.......if you want to.....you can rest your head on my shoulder or hold my hand or....steal said snacks......as much as you want.......

*pause*

*huffs a laugh* Plans change......but my love for you doesn't.......

I love you......
