You threw me.

[ And risking frost burn and a concussion is alright?? ]

[solas_ion]

Figured you'd live.

[ex_cashcow493]

In the snow.

[ WHY ARE THE IRISH SO RUDE??? ]

[solas_ion]

Stop complaining.

[ex_cashcow493]

What else am I to do? Thank you?

[solas_ion]

No. You're supposed to shut up and listen because I'm going to say something important.

[ex_cashcow493]

[ >Lancer
>Say something important

Not sure if want ........... ]

Speak [ boy ] before you earn my ire.

[solas_ion]

Do you know why I'm here right now?

[ex_cashcow493]

Tell me.

[solas_ion]

Because I don't have anyone else. I admit it, I caught up to you in Goldenrod because I was goddamn lonely, alright? And as much as I like everybody else I've met around here, you and I can understand each other like knights and not just strangers from alternate worlds.

Rin's gone, Connla's gone, and I...damn it, Saber, I don't have anywhere else to go but follow you around like I'm a damned stray.

[ex_cashcow493]

Ah.

[ Just like that it all comes crashing down in her mind. It was a realization that should have made itself known a lot sooner as she curls her legs up in the snow as her expression hardens. It was foolish to think that things could actually change in this place, wasn't it? To actually think she could live another life without the obligations she held as king.

To live a life without her guilt.

No, all she had done was outrun the past briefly. With a light laugh escaping her throat, she thinks over just how foolish all of this had been. All of this was borrowed time and in a brief moment, it could all turn to ruin. Just as her kingdom had turned against her at one point in history, she can easily lose everything in Johto.

It was ignorant of her to believe she actually had friends. It was ignorant of her to believe she served any other purpose than to protect. It was ignorant of her to fall in love. ]

We should return to Goldenrod city with haste. [ Of course her words don't betray her emotions, the stoic look she's so used to returning with ease. ] Once there.. you do not have to concern yourself with spending time with me. I had been naive and you have my most sincerest of apologies for being so.

[solas_ion]

For the love of--! You still don't get it, do you?!

[BREATHE. Lancer couldn't be more frustrated with how Saber had seemingly flown right over the point he was driving at.]

I'm saying we're friends, you idiot, so you don't have to worry so damn much about being on your own or whatever stupid ideas you've gotten in your head!

1/2

[ex_cashcow493]

I refuse to be friends with a man who tosses me face first into a pile of snow!

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Damn it, Lancer! Quit making her act out of her comfort zone. With flushed cheeks, she'll force herself to look away from him, trying to conjure a way to recover from this embarrassment. ]

Am I a stray as well then?

[solas_ion]

I don't know. Do you think you are?

[ex_cashcow493]

Birds of a feather flock together, no? I suppose the same could apply to a pack.

[solas_ion]

I was just thinking the exact same thing.

[ex_cashcow493]

Then worry not. I shall do all of the hunting while you enjoy the spoils.

[ Gao. ]

[solas_ion]

[good seiba lion, best friend]

Ah, but what fun would that be for me?

[ex_cashcow493]

[ ]

None, but I am reliable enough.

[solas_ion]

I wouldn't doubt you.

[ex_cashcow493]

I think we should start to return to Goldenrod City. Provided you are up for doing so.

[solas_ion]

Anything you say, Saber. I'm fine with it--you want to walk or ride back?

[ex_cashcow493]

Ride. I see no point in enjoying the scenery we have already traveled.

[solas_ion]

Fine. [Lightly tossing her a Pokeball with a Rapidash in it, taking the other out for himself as his Charmander climbs up onto his shoulder.]
