26 (The Grocery Boy)

[In Goldenrod, our brave little queen has woken up, and it's her calm face that shows up on Video. But if you're in Goldenrod, feel free to Action it up!]

Hello, everyone. It looks like I entered one of those infamous sleeps Johto seems to be fond of... but I'm all right. I'm sorry to anyone I may have worried. And to all of our new arrivals - welcome! My name is Minnie Mouse, and I'd be more than happy to help you in any way I can.

[She then looks down.]

But... it looks like the King has taken my place.

[Now she shifts the pokegear downward, revealing that she's in the Pokemon Center, sitting on a bed, and... Mickey is asleep, his head on her lap. Everyone say 'dawwww'.]

Thank you. See you in person soon enough, eh? I think you'll like Haku-kun.

[The only one of them that gets ~feelings~]

Any friend of yours is a friend of mine.

[Chuckling] You haven't met Zabuza yet.

[No longer arguing the friend thing, even he he pauses with an awkward expression whenever he hears it.]

[He starts to say something and then shakes his head laughing.]

Well, you like me in spite of my past, so I suppose.

... Is his past... different, too?

[identity profile] usedgigadrain.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
We were raised in the same village, and subject to the same training and lies. They called me a monster and him a demon. We are both traitors to the village as well. We have...more in common than many do.

In some ways, he fared better than me.

[identity profile] usedgigadrain.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
He saw how important Haku-kun was to him before he died, not after.

...

[manages to connect some dots.]

They can be together again!

[identity profile] usedgigadrain.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, that too.

[Which is true for him and Itachi, but he's still figuring out how important Itachi is in his life.]

It's a strange feeling, knowing I'll never go home.

[identity profile] usedgigadrain.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I--

[He stops, and looks bewildered for a moment.] If you mean in that sense, I haven't ever had one, I think.

I was talking about the world I come from, though.

Maybe, then, you can have a new home. A better one.

[identity profile] usedgigadrain.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Where could I go? What place would accept me with my past?

Can I even leave this world at all?

[identity profile] her-mouse-jesty.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I've accepted you, haven't I?

[identity profile] usedgigadrain.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
There isn't anyone else like you, Minnie-san.

[identity profile] her-mouse-jesty.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think so. I have faith you'll make more friends.

[identity profile] usedgigadrain.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's quiet for a moment and then shrugs.]

Perhaps. We'll see.
