19th Tomoe || Text (Action for Viridian City)

[beforethedarkness]

Itachi Uchiha went home last night. If anyone has gotten any one of his pokémon, please contact Sasuke Uchiha about it.

[That’s all the text that goes on the network, and he can’t help sighing as he sends it. He doesn’t know what else to say about it, except... He’s never felt more alone in his life.

Which means there’s a sulking kid in Viridian City Pokémon Center, and otherwise his only communication is on the gear. Which really isn’t anything that new for Sasuke, but the reason is something more relatable this time at least.]

[[OoC: This has been cleared OOCly with the player as she is unfortunately dropping from the game. =( We'll miss you!]]

[GDI Sora. Big sigh, because it's honesty time.]

Part of me wants to. Another part still hates him and blames him for everything.

Re: Private

Maybe you're just afraid to let go of all that hate. I mean you've lived with it for so long. You probably don't remember what it's like not to hate.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

[Another big pause because he doesn't know what to say to that. Namely, Sora's hit it on the head and Sasuke doesn't know how to respond. He doesn't remember what it's like not to hate, huh...

Whoops, looks like there's no response that time. Either Sora's going to have to prod at him again or end the conversation there, because Sasuke isn't going anywhere with what he just received.]

[heartdive]

Uh...

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

Maybe you're right.

Re: Private

[heartdive]

Oh. That's a relief.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

Why is it a relief?

Re: Private

[heartdive]

First step in fixing a problem is admitting there is one. Aaaand something else too.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

I didn't say I had a problem. And what else did you mean?

Re: Private

[heartdive]

Maybe is pretty close!

And you opened up to me a bit more. Without me having to push too much. That makes me happy.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

Maybe isn't yes, Sora.

[Damn it he knows he's uncomfortable and suddenly he's also really thankful that this is text. He's just plain not addressing that second part as a result.]

Re: Private

[heartdive]

It totally is when it comes for you. It's like your way of avoiding the fact that someone might be right or confirming things without hurting your pride.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

You don't know that.

[Deniaaaal.]

Private

[heartdive]

I'm enough of a friend to know that, at least.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

I don't want to talk about this Sora.

[Whoops he's starting to run away again.]

Private

[heartdive]

Back to that sort of thing, huh?

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

What sort of thing

Private

[heartdive]

Running?

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

I'm not running

Private

[heartdive]

You're being a fraidy cat.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

What the hell would I even be scared of

[Whoops Sora might have pressed a button. Only one idiot was dumb enough to call him that... Sora please don't be an idiot and be the second one.]

Private

[heartdive]

Anything and everything that makes you uncomfortable, dummy.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

[BIG SIGH, SORA. Even over text messages you're exhausting!]

Why do you even want to talk about it

Private

[heartdive]

Because I think you could use someone to talk to is all. That and... Well that's what friends are for.

Besides... I know the worst of it, right? It's not like I'm going to turn you away or think any less of you - no matter what you do.

Re: Private

[beforethedarkness]

[Give it a moment.]

Not right now.
