[23:57] <Sara`> [>CONTINUE]
[23:59] <Kirarin> ...
[23:59] * Kirarin curls.
[23:59] * [BNS]Komacho flees the area, tears streaming down her cheeks!
[00:00] <MissD> <Hey.. wait!....~>
[00:01] * Sara` walks over to Kirarin, careful and quiet, then setting herself down.
[00:01] * [BNS]Komacho is deaf to MissD's cries, forging ahead through the foliage, desperately running as hard as she can
[00:01] * Kirarin tries not to recognize Sara's presence.
[00:03] * Sara` sighs.
[00:04] <Sara`> <Sorry for denying your opinion so brutally.>
[00:04] * [BNS]Komacho suddenly trips over an exposed root, sending her crashing to the ground, face down.
[00:04] <MissD> ..<Ohh.. that's gotta hurt, you ok Komacho?>
[00:05] * [BNS]Komacho folds her arms under her head and just sobs, not bothering to try to get up.
[00:05] * Kirarin look up, downcast.
[00:05] <Kirarin> <I'm just being cynical. Don't mind me.>
[00:05] <Kirarin> <World will continue to be the way it is, even if you say it or not.>
[00:07] * Sara` hmmm...
[00:07] <Sara`> <... Even if the constant change doesn't want to move in the way I want it to, I think it can turn if I try.>
[00:09] <MissD> <Hey... cmon.. get up will ya? That shouldn't hurt too much.>
[00:09] <Sara`> <I know it's going to be difficult.>
[00:10] <Kirarin> <sigh... it's good to be optimistic, but sometimes that is just a fool's hope, clinging to imagination that can never happen.>
[00:10] * Sara` stops looking across the field, and now looks upon Kirarin.
[00:10] <Kirarin> <We either adapt, or perish in the sea of changes.>
[00:10] <Kirarin> <Which in my case...>
[00:10] * Kirarin curls again.
[00:10] * [BNS]Komacho keeps crying, not even acknowledging MissD
[00:10] <MissD> ...
[00:11] <Kirarin> <...I choose to live, despite all odds.>
[00:11] <MissD> <Hey.. what's the matter Komacho?>
[00:11] <Kirarin> <One might find happiness being human's tool, who knows.>
[00:12] * [BNS]Komacho rolls over partially, curling up and wrapping her arms around her legs, her eyes clenched tightly and still hyperventiliating from her fit
[00:13] * [BNS]Komacho curls tighter, unsure if she wants to open up to MissD
[00:14] <Sara`> <Well, living is a good goal.>
[00:14] <Sara`> <As for happiness, though...>
[00:14] * MissD is genuinely worried now...
[00:15] <Sara`> <Being a hellraiser like this makes me happy, I guess.>
[00:15] <MissD> < Hey...if you don't talk, I won't know what's going on..>
[00:15] <Sara`> <To see the world change into a just one would, right now, make me the happiest.>
[00:16] <[BNS]Komacho> <I... I'm... I'm... I don't want to be different anymore...!>
[00:16] <Sara`> <... That's my happiness.>
[00:16] <Sara`> </Your/ happiness, though, is something only you can find.>
[00:17] <Sara`> <Maybe that means battling other trainers' partners. Maybe not.>
[00:18] <Kirarin> <My happiness, huh...>
[00:18] * Kirarin got a slight tint of pink on her cheek.
[00:19] <Kirarin> <...to be on Iris' shoulder all the time, maybe?>
[00:21] <MissD> <H-how so?... you are you right?>
[00:21] * Kirarin realize that she's talking too much.
[00:21] <Kirarin> <Wh-whatever! Stop asking silly questions! Leave me be!>
[00:22] <[BNS]Komacho> <I don't want to be jealous anymore! I don't want to have love anymore! It makes me be not like me! I don't want it anymore! I want to go back to the way things were and only worry about eating, sleeping and being strong!>
[00:22] * [BNS]Komacho starts sobbing again
[00:23] * Sara` smiles.
[00:23] <Sara`> <I wasn't asking. You told.>
[00:24] <Sara`> <That's actually a good way to attain happiness, I think.>
[00:24] * Sara` looks out across the plains once more...
[00:25] <Sara`> <Your secret's safe with me.>
[00:25] * Kirarin lets out a muffled mews, expressing annoyance.
[00:26] <Kirarin> <You should go take care of that bodybuilding crybaby. She's much softer than her muscular self expresses.>
[00:27] <MissD> <So.. you've found love huh?... its.. I know its all so hard to take in.>
[00:27] <Sara`> <... Yeah. But all of us are weaker than the images we put out, aren't we?>
[00:29] <Sara`> <First, though...>
[00:29] <Sara`> <Are you alright, now?>
[00:29] <Kirarin> <I am alright even before you're here, for that matters.>
[00:30] <Kirarin> <Just go already.>
[00:30] * Kirarin rolls even more, probably embarrassed.
[00:31] * Sara` laughs just a bit as she stands.
[00:31] * [BNS]Komacho tries to curl up more, wanting to shrink away and disappear...
[00:32] <Sara`> <You're cuter when you act like that.>
[00:33] * Sara's mirth disappears.
[00:33] * Kirarin mutters some embarrassed grumbles.
[00:33] <MissD> <I understand that its... a new unwanted feeling but... Komacho, it'll always be with you. Whether you like it or not, but you're not alone.>
[00:33] <Sara`> <Well, i'm off. Don't feel as though you can't talk to me, if you need or want to.>
[00:33] <Kirarin> <whatever.>
[00:34] * Sara` walks away from the shade of the tree. She doesn't know where Komacho is now, but she aims in the general direction of her departure.
[00:36] * [BNS]Komacho composes herself enough to sit up, still curled in a fetal position and still hyperventilating.
[00:38] * MissD embraces Komacho, it's a gentle embrace unlike her normal ones.
[00:39] * Sara` enters the fringes of the forest. A step here, a step there... It's not glaring her in the face, but there's a trail.
[00:40] * Kirarin spots Doudan popping up from the ground not too far away.
[00:41] * [9]Doudan waves
[00:41] * Sara` begins following the trail, but due to the density of the forest, she can't teleport to find them without exhausting herself.
[00:41] <Sara`> <... I hope she's alright...>
[00:42] * Kirarin sees that.
[00:42] * Kirarin get back to her uninterested state.
[00:43] <[9]Doudan> <...Heeey.>
[00:43] * Kirarin make a face.
[00:43] <Kirarin> <whaaaaat.>
[00:43] * [9]Doudan slithers or does whatever she does to move from one location to another. Locomotion.
[00:44] <[9]Doudan> <Whaaaaat's going on?>
[00:44] <Kirarin> <Something.>
[00:45] * [BNS]Komacho steadily calms down, her head hanging down as she tries to compose herself
[00:45] <[9]Doudan> <...Awesome.>
[00:45] * [9]Doudan unsheathes her thumb from the amorphous blob of her hand to demonstrate approval.
[00:45] * Sara` keeps on walking... o O ( She couldn't have gone far... )
[00:46] * Sara` , within several minutes' time, arrives.
[00:47] * Kirarin recognize it, and thinks she just flip a middle finger at her.
[00:47] <MissD> <There... are you better now?>
[00:48] * Kirarin gets all pissy, but silently.
[00:48] * [BNS]Komacho shakes her head in the negative, but has stopped crying at least
[00:49] * [9]Doudan smiles ignorantly and looks around.
[00:49] <[9]Doudan> <No seriously, what's going on.>
[00:49] * Sara` approaches the pair, taking care to keep her steps quiet and gentle.
[00:50] <Kirarin> <I don't really care. They gather over there for some silly matters.>
[00:50] <Kirarin> <You can go check them out.>
[00:51] <Sara`> <...how are you doing...?>
[00:51] * Sara` asks Komacho.
[00:51] <[9]Doudan> <If I wanted to check them out, I would have by now.>
[00:52] <Kirarin> <Lazyblob, huh.>
[00:52] * Kirarin shifts into more comfortable position and tries to sleep.
[00:52] <Kirarin> <Do what you desires.>
[00:53] <[9]Doudan> <...Okay.>
[00:53] * [BNS]Komacho looks up at Sara, her face stained with tears, and jumps up to run over and wrap her arms around her, burying her face in Sara's dress.
[00:53] * [9]Doudan lifts up one hand in greeting.
[00:54] <[9]Doudan> <Hello, everynyan.>
[00:54] <MissD> <Hehe... my job here is done~>
[00:54] <[BNS]Komacho> <I don't want this...>
[00:54] * MissD floats off somewhere.
[00:54] <[9]Doudan> <How are you? Fine, thank you.>
[00:54] * [9]Doudan spread her arms.
[00:54] <[9]Doudan> <I wish I were a bird.>
[00:54] <Kirarin> <Just transforms, silly.>
[00:54] * Kirarin mrrghlhg.
[00:54] * Sara` takes a half-step back in surprise and recoil, but then hugs Komacho.
[00:55] <[9]Doudan> <...There's no bird pokemon here, though.>
[00:55] <Sara`> <There... Calm down...>
[00:55] <Kirarin> <You can do it if you try hard enough.>
[00:56] * [9]Doudan flaps her arms violently.
[00:57] * [BNS]Komacho looks up at Sara with pleading eyes
[00:57] <[BNS]Komacho> <I don't want to be like this anymore...>
[00:57] * Kirarin chuckles.
[00:58] * [9]Doudan gives up.
[00:59] <[9]Doudan> <I wish Nameji was here. She'd think of something fun to do.>
[00:59] <[9]Doudan> <...Mmmmaybe.>
[00:59] <Sara`> <... No matter what, growing happens...>
[00:59] <Sara`> <And this is a part of it.>
[01:00] * MissD floats back to Doudan and Kirarin, her back to the ground and herself staring at the empty skies.
[01:00] <[9]Doudan> <...MissD! Hiya!>
[01:00] * [BNS]Komacho shakes her head vehemently
[01:01] <Kirarin> <More annoyance.>
[01:01] * [9]Doudan attempts to pounce on the ghost thing.
[01:01] <MissD> <...>
[01:01] <[BNS]Komacho> <NO! I DON'T WANT TO BE JEALOUS ANYMORE!>
[01:01] * Kirarin mumbles.
[01:01] * MissD keeps silent, perhaps she's thinking about something.
[01:02] <[9]Doudan> <...Heeey, come on. Don't be so gloom and doom.>
[01:02] <MissD> <When things go boom?>
[01:02] * MissD answers nonchalantly...
[01:03] * Kirarin closes her eyes and tries to get some rest.
[01:04] <[9]Doudan> <If you look for a room you'll book a tomb. Gloom and doom in this room, why is it it makes me fume?>
[01:06] * Sara` . o O ( Komacho... )
[01:06] <MissD> <Because the fume, weaved by a gloom, it only spells our aku-.. I give up.. what is it Doudan?>
[01:07] <[9]Doudan> <I have no idea whatsoever.>
[01:08] * MissD giggles, her reverie shaken out of.
[01:08] * Sara's eyes seem to almost darken.
[01:09] <Sara`> <... all I can really say is...>
[01:09] <Sara`> <Use your inner strength to try and fight it off.>
[01:09] <[9]Doudan> <Do you know that feeling where you keep looking at the clock, thinking a million years must have passed, but only a minute has?>
[01:09] <[9]Doudan> <And then seven minutes later it's still that way?>
[01:09] <[9]Doudan> <I hate that feeling, god.>
[01:10] <MissD> <I do too.. its worse when you're a ghost like me Doudan.>
[01:10] <[9]Doudan> <Yeah, at least I'll die someday.>
[01:10] <[9]Doudan> <...I think.>
[01:10] <MissD> < Guess how long I've been here~?>
[01:10] <[9]Doudan> <17 ghost years.>
[01:11] <MissD> <Correct...wait.. how the hell..>
[01:11] * MissD smiles.
[01:12] * [9]Doudan smiles.
[01:12] * Kirarin facepalms.
[01:12] <Kirarin> <Idiocy knows no bounds.>
[01:13] * [BNS]Komacho looks up at Sara and then stares blankly before biting her lip and turning away from her, her head hanging down as she struggles to rationalize what Sara just said.
[01:13] * Sara` tightens her hug and whispers...
[01:14] <Sara`> <... I'm sorry I can't offer better advice. We all have to face these feelings someday...>
[01:15] * MissD .oO( Komacho... you've actually made me worry about someone..impressive...)
[01:16] * [BNS]Komacho looks back up at Sara, seeking one more answer...
[01:16] <[BNS]Komacho> <Does it ever go away?>
[01:18] <MissD> <Anyway Doudan... you wanna do something?>
[01:18] <[9]Doudan> <Sure, something sounds like something.>
[01:18] <Sara`> <... Sometimes. With time.>
[01:19] * [BNS]Komacho finally takes a big breath, taking solace in that small assurance...
[01:19] <MissD> <Let's go scare the others~ They're too serious~ C'mon, change in to me~>
[01:20] <[9]Doudan> <Sssssssure.>
[01:20] <[9]Doudan> <Shape of a ghostie!>
[01:20] * [9]Doudan transforms into MissD.
[01:20] * Sara offers a warm smile.
[01:21] <Sara`> <Do you feel a little better, now?>
[01:21] <MissD> <Yay~>
[01:21] * [BNS]Komacho nods, managing to allow a slight smile to spread across her tear-stained face
[01:22] <[9]Doudan> <Who shall we frighten first~?>
[01:22] * Sara` smiles true, now.
[01:22] <Sara`> <Good. I'm glad.>
[01:23] * Sara` wipes away several of the remaining tears.
[01:23] <Sara`> <Shall we return, now?>
[01:24] <MissD> <Sara first! She's too serious!>
[01:24] <[9]MissDou> <Ghosties first~>
[01:25] <MissD> <Hooray!~>
[01:25] * [BNS]Komacho nods, taking Sara's hand and trusting her to guide us back, as she wasn't paying much attention as she was running away and isn't exactly sure which way to go
[01:26] * Sara` smiles, detecting the implication she'll walk that again. With a wink, she teleports.
[01:32] * [BNS]Komacho seeing that Sara's brought us back to camp, gives her one last hug and then runs off to find something to eat...
[01:32] * Sara` sighs. o O ( I'm glad she's starting to come to terms...)
