4th bloom

[punchtheflowers]

[Vinnie had been spending a lot of time on his own outside, watching the flower buds peek through the snow. Had he been actively avoiding certain people? Hell yes. But he was privately trying to console himself with the slow return of spring.

It was getting warmer. Greener. All his hopes for the future lay in the coming month.

All are welcome to bug him as he mopes in the melting snow.]

I wanna get back into training again. At least doing something. I'm sick of waiting around and feeling like this. I've been getting into fights anyway, so... I should've told you about those.

I know I've been pulling stupid shit lately. You can lay it on me for that.

= = =

...Sorry for being such an asshole.

There's a girl that likes me. I don't know what the fuck t'do.

So if you guys have any ideas on how I should stop fucking up my life, I'm all ears.

By the way, Smoe: those nose things work really well. Thanks.

[Growl. Vinnie couldn't help but think back to what the other Charizard had told him during their tussle. He had to force himself to push it out of his mind. It certainly hadn't endeared himself any more to the guy.]

You don't teach a Pokemon t'be wild. Those instincts don't go away. It's remembering.

Years of livin' like that, it gets to you. I still got some've it in me, good and bad. I still... think about what it might've been if I never met you guys. The forest's in my blood, just like fire's in yours. Doesn't make me stronger or better than Bulba. He acts more like a 'Saur than I do, half the time - and he sure as hell's never been wild.

Char's no more fuckin' qualified than you are. He talks a lot'a shit, but he ain't fit to teach nothing.

awsm

[She listens to his words in silence. While Sasha doesn't really completely agree with them, having been there and witnessing what Char did, it is really nice of him to say that. Especially after all the shit she's been pulling off regarding who to date and everything.]

...Thanks. It means a lot.

I guess I still need to find that fire in me. Sometimes it feels like I'm just trying to extinguish it. But I don't want it to happen again. With Volgin... I just don't know what to do, sometimes.

NO I WILL NOT GIVE THIS THREAD UP

Fighting your nature's a losing battle, but you don't have t'be like Char to find that balance. There's no reason you can't be you and have that flame at the same time.

S'far as I'm concerned, every other Fire Type's just been a torch. They don't know how t'do anything but burn for themselves. You're better than that.

You're the goddamn sun. You'll find your way, I know it.

BUT HOW IS BABBY FORMED

[punchvolcanoes]

[Sasha just grinned wider and wider and went on. Sometimes the only medicine someone needed was having someone care about you and tell you the right words.]

Alright. I'll do it!

[Do or not do. There was no try, after all.]

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Good. [Vinnie grinned, even though he still wore the lingering air of emotional fatigue. It was just good to see his sister smile again. He hadn't realized how sorely he'd missed it.]

No matter what happens, you'll always be the sun t'me.

[Hug?]

[punchvolcanoes]

The blackest sun, heh? [She's teasing a little. This night been nearly an emotional roller-coaster.]

[Hugs are indeed very acceptable and she does not hesitate when it is offered to her.]
