This carnival thing wasn't too bad at all. I snapped some shots on my phone while I was there, and they're pretty goddamn inspirational. Figured there'd be some of you who'd be interested. Y'know, if you missed the highlight of the hotdog eating competition.

Anyways. It's almost the 22nd. S'not really a birthday, I mean, how the hell're you supposed t'remember what day you're born when you don't have calenders? But it's as good a time as any.

So I'm taking off for a few days to go home and check up on things. I don't really get how you guys celebrate birthdays. Makes more sense t'me that if you're gonna make a deal of it, it should be about the people who made you.

It's been a long while since I saw the Garden in spring.

Max: I'm taking a few days off. Also, I'm never telling you sensitive info again.

[Everyone in Red team who was still at the school got a candied apple from the carnival. Sonny got a rocky road caramel apple, Kojiro got pecan caramel apple, and Red got an apple pie apple.]

I used t'think he knew better than to get himself burned too. After he talked t'me, I'm not so sure anymore...

Sarcasm's an easy crutch. You've done nothing but tell me I'm being unfair t'your angry Charizard ass, and condescending, and that I don't have any idea 'bout your problems. None of that means I'm wrong.

What else do you expect from me? You're my enemy. I don't want you knowin' a damn thing about me, and I know there's no way you give any amount of shits about whatever I got pressin' on my shoulders. I could spend days talkin' about the 15 Charizards with no survival skills that your sister thinks she's too pretty to bother with, or tryin' to get you to understand what it's like when the thing your gut says is right is the exact thing everyone else says is wrong, but we both know that ain't gonna bring on no epiphanies.

This is all Bulba, Vinnie. Stop playin' the altruism act and face it. If Bulba were still happy, you wouldn't care less if I were punchin' out half the school. You want somebody to be responsible for what he's done. That's why you're tellin' me I don't care enough about my team to change into somebody who can save him.

Go ahead and lay it on me. Fine. He probably did pick this shit up off of me, and I ain't a good enough brother to fix it. Now that we're agreed I fucked it up, why don't you quit with this retarded helpful-bestest-buddy bullshit and go save the kid yourself?

If Bulba were genuinely proud of you for acting up, I wouldn't have a problem. Somehow, I don't think he is.

You know what? You're right. I do wanna blame you for something he did. I wanna blame your whole team. Even if he acted on his own, the fact is I never figured Bulba to do something that reckless if he didn't learn it from somewhere.

But I get the feeling what you're thinking of and what I'm thinking of are two different things here.

And as much as I wanna help him, I can't. You know why? Cuz I'll never be a replacement for you in his eyes. Won't matter if I suddenly turn into the best fuckin' Venusaur in the world.

If you ain't gonna do shit about it, then for the love of Arceus, stop with the backseat driver crap. I liked it a lot better when we just called each other dickbags and moved on to the fightin'.
