[Xion vaguely remembers her early life in Alola before her parents had whisked her away to Unova for business purposes, where she'd spent countless days waiting in line to get the ever-popular Casteliacones with her new friends in Castelia City. just in time for her to start her Pokémon journey, family matters had yet again seen to her moving back to the island chain, even though most of the friends she'd known back then had already departed for their own adventures. it'd been so long ago, she wasn't sure they would have even remembered her in the first place...
for whatever reason, one of those old friends had stuck around by the time she'd come back to Iki Town; Xion had been shy around him initially for the reasons mentioned above, especially because she felt like he'd definitely been closer to the friends who'd started their journeys early, but... whatever projecting she was doing had gone unfounded, as the two of them agreed to traverse the region together anyway.
it's basically the morning of their scheduled departure, and goodbyes to family have already been said, but Xion doesn't look so ready to go.]
