Bulba, uh... this is kinda out of the blue, but you don't happen to feel anything weird today or

Nevermind, fuck it.

Hey, guys. I know we just moved in an'all, but I need to take off for a bit. I think... Can't really explain it, but I gotta head back to the Garden in Vermilion. You know the one, Red.

Erika: sorry I'll be missin' your class this week. I was really looking forward to it I wanted to oh fuck forget that too

All right. No one better make any moves on Sis while I'm gone. Or I'll know.

I'll be back soon.

...I wonder if I'll recognize any of the Bulbasaur there.

Shit, I hope I don't fuck this ceremony up.

Wait... what.

A very good looking Venusaur like you going back to that Garden? You're probably in the top percentage of Venusaur. I'm sure they'll all be sighing as you pass by.

Phffft! Yeah, right. Anyone old enough to remember me just knows me as the idiot kid who used to pick fights with Mankeys and cut car brakes.

I've seriously got no idea what I'm doing. Dunno if I even remember how dad used t'do this every year.

Don't be so modest. I'm sure they've all heard what you did with us and Red. How you spear-headed to save the forest when all the others decided to go away.

You'll do fine Vin. I'm not even worried about you. You'll be the best Venusaur, and nothing's gonna be able to change that.

Re: [Private]

Best Venusaur? Shit. No way.

Do you know how weird this is? I'm like... my dad now. I'm not gonna be as good a Venusaur as him, not even close.

Re: [Private]

[punchvolcanoes]

Vin if you keep putting yourself down like that I'm gonna have to go punch you to put some sense into you.

Re: [Private]

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

All right, all right. Shutting up now.

Re: [Private]

[punchvolcanoes]

That's better.

Don't forget to call me if you end up with a bunch of eggs, huh?

I'm just kidding Vin.

Re: [Private]

Ffffuck don't even joke about that shit right now Sis I'm serious

[Private]

[punchvolcanoes]

I know I know. I'm sorry. I was just hoping to ease the tension a little.

...How about if I fly you over there? Imagine how AMAZING that would be! They look up in the sky! Suddenly! A Venusaur drops from the heavens!

Re: [Private]

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

That's... really not necessary.

'Sides, you're not even supposed to know where the Garden is at all. I'd get a lot of shit letting a Charizard near it. Or panic.

No offense.

[Private]

[punchvolcanoes]

...oh right.

I wish Charizards had cool ceremonies like you guys do...

Anyway. I could...drop you somewhere not near the forest. Just to make your journey easier. I don't want you walking all the way from here, you know?

Don't worry 'bout it, really.

I think it's a pilgrimage rule or something that I get there by foot. Something 'bout how far my scent spreads.

Besides... Okay, keep this secret I don't think you could fly two guys to Vermilion.

[SUPER EXTREMELY PRIVATE]

[punchvolcanoes]

TWO GUYS?!

Wait you're going with...

That's the team spirit!

I don't think Green wants anyone - I mean anyone - to know he gave an okay... Bulba said he wanted to go. Waiting on him, I guess.

[SUPER EXTREMELY PRIVATE]

[punchvolcanoes]

...

I'll keep it between us.

I wish they were nicer in public too.

Re: [SUPER EXTREMELY PRIVATE]

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

I know.

Don't fuckin' understand them at all.

Re: [SUPER EXTREMELY PRIVATE]

[punchvolcanoes]

Maybe they just feel like they have something to prove and we...don't? I guess being a free spirit means you really don't mind if you're first or second as long as the fight was good...It probably irks them. I found irk in the dictionary a few days ago, I love that word.

Re: [SUPER EXTREMELY PRIVATE]

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Great. I'm pretty sure I got over that shit when I was still an Ivysaur.

You can still get stronger from a fight if you lose. Pickin' fights you know you're gonna win's just lazy. Oh I guess that's why you're fighting Max AND Char huh

[SUPER EXTREMELY PRIVATE]

[punchvolcanoes]

That's my motto. Win or lose, you learn something new. Just gotta pick people worthy enough to tussle with you, you know?

Re: [SUPER EXTREMELY PRIVATE]

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Well, lookin' back on our rock eating records, I think I'm flattered.

[SUPER EXTREMELY PRIVATE]

[punchvolcanoes]

Well to be fair I didn't always think like that as a Charmeleon. But yeah, one of the reason everyone in the team is so good is that we know each others' strength and weaknesses, right?
