You alright? You seemed rather shaken up there, do you want me to escort you back to Bizville?

(Brushfire jumps, before looking at Griefer.)

"Oh- Oh. Youre here too. At.. The Trinity.. Right. I forgot." ' 'I'm.. fine.' '

Brad kept walking but he listened to Pest talking about his "friend" for now

We met during a college party, and let's say it 'evolved' from that for better or for worse; oh, by the way.

Pest rambled as the trio walked; though as they approached the abandoned home it got just a tiny bit dark; yet sunlight shined through the treetops

By the way, we are here; welcome to Fort Pest! It might look a little un cared for, but a little bit of grease and it'll be fine; though Gavin and I will handle the building part, it's up to Brad to get us snacks and find us materials!

Pest cleared his throat as he walked over to the old front door that was now rotting off its hinges

But first let's go explore this and see what we can salvage come on you two.

With that Pest walked inside; leaving Brad and Gavin alone

"..I know he said your job is getting snacks and materials, but.. when we're done exploring, you dont gotta go anywhere if you dont want to."

"..I know how it feels to exert energy you dont have." (He gave a nod, before following Pest inside, keeping a slow and careful pace, so that Brad could keep up and just incase the floor was weak..)

Brad looked the old house up and down; this needed a lot more than just "some elbow grease" it needed a whole reconstruction!!!

7hink I will s74r7 wi7h 7h3 sn4cks, 0f c0urs3; y0u 7w0 n33d 70 k33p y0ur s7r3ng7h up wi7h c0ns7ruc7ing, whil3 I r3l4x in 0n3 0f 7h0s3 luxuri0us sunb47hing ch4irs 4nd sip 4 c0ld bl0xy c0l4!

Brad followed both his older brothers inside the house, as he looked around; covering his nose with his shirt he walked over to a window opening it in order to let some fresh air in.

Pest walked into the living room area starting to look for any furniture that could be spared.

Brad meanwhile wandered off into the kitchen, if he was handling the snacks he was making sure no other pests couldn't get into their future food storage

You alright? You seemed rather shaken up there, do you want me to escort you back to Bizville?

Brad slowly nodded, though he rubbed the back of his neck to ease the growing tension there

Though something else troubled him also, but he did promise not to bring it out; though his brow furrowing in worry gave it away...slightly

Brad paused; he did promise not to bring it up so he told Gavin the truth technically he wasn't lying

As for getting back at Pest; and giving him a taste of his own medicine well they'd need to think of how to get their revenge

I'm back; can't believe how big those lines are with this accursed heat wave, couldn't we make ice cream at home or something?

Speaking of Pest he soon returned with the ice cream, holding the two frozen treats in front of Gavin and Brad, choosing not to say anything further

Th4nks...

Brad sighed as he wordlessly took his ice cream and began eating it, but hey at least he seemed to enjoy it, perhaps they were back on 'talking terms' at least

(As Pest returned, Gav looked up.) "Ah.. I kind of forgot he sent you out to get icecream specifically. Why dont you have mine? Still not a big fan of sweets.. "

He finally let it slip, the thing that was one of the things that was truly weighing down on him

I m34n h3 w4s sur3 in 4 rush 70 l34v3...

"and considering i'd just gotten the windforce.. and youre still healing. He didnt wanna put anymore on our shoulders." (He set a hand on Brads shoulder as he spoke..) "Thaniyels a good dad and person, he cares for all of us and is considerate. He wouldnt try to rush us into a new adventure when we'd just gotten back from one."

(he went silent for a moment, thinking..)

H3r3 y0u c4n h4v3 i7, I d0n'7 f33l hungry 4nym0r3....

Now it was Pest's time to be concerned as his brow furrowed, Brad normally could take some teasing but this wasnt like him at all...

Are you feeling sick or something? It's unlike you do turn down food, especially sweets

Pest used his free hand to feel Brad's forehead but it didn't feel hot still though it was sudden and even more concering

"..Brad?" "..Do you want a hug or anything? ..Thaniyel may not be here but, you've still got us.."

N0 7h4nks I d0n'7 7hink vid30 g4m34 will h3lp m3 wi7h 7his...

Brad spoke quietly as he looked away, though just for a second his voice wavered yet he soon cleared his throat

Is this about the glasses too? Come on dude, you are acting like dad went off to die in a war or something!

Pest blurted out, in a fast manner; as if it were common knowledge that or he just really said the first thing that came to mind

(he huffed, before hugging brad gently... letting him rest on him..) "..It'll be okay.. take the time you need and let it all out. we're here for you."

Brad snuggled closer to Gavin though he kept his gaze downcast; he still felt hurt that his dad hid that from him

Hey I got an idea that'll cheer you up! I used to go there A LOT as a kid; it's this abandoned cabin in the deep jungle, it even used to be my clubhouse back then; it's not scary at all I promise!

Suddenly Pest jolted up taking on a more friendly and upbeat tone, as he looked down at them; sure it wasn't the greatest idea but it'd distract Brad for a few hours assuming it worked

(Gavin looked at Brad, trying to gauge his opinion.) "A clubhouse would be cool, yeah? Wanna think of our club name?"

(He looked to Pest, and gave a slight nod and thumbsup.)

Slowly Brad stood up as he nodded; though he still seemed a bit hesitant

Hell yeah, we can come up with a name later! And then we can even invite our friends over; oh, and everyone can have their own room!

Pest gently placed a hand on Brad's back leading him off; as he tried keeping the same upbeat tone

Well once we clean and repair the place! We are the mayor's kids so nobody can tell us what to do and how quiet to be; plus no scary basements!

He rambled as he motioned for Gavin to follow perhaps they could even host parties there; it'd be far away enough to not disturb anyone's slumber

You alright? You seemed rather shaken up there, do you want me to escort you back to Bizville?

(Brushfire jumps, before looking at Griefer.)

4s f0r 4 c3r74in 0ld3r br07h3r, 4ny id34s? H3 migh7 pl4y 7h3 vic7im, bu7 w3 w0uldn'7 g0 7h47 f4r, 7h0ugh I h0p3...

As for getting back at Pest; and giving him a taste of his own medicine well they'd need to think of how to get their revenge

I'm back; can't believe how big those lines are with this accursed heat wave, couldn't we make ice cream at home or something?

Speaking of Pest he soon returned with the ice cream, holding the two frozen treats in front of Gavin and Brad, choosing not to say anything further

Th4nks...

Brad sighed as he wordlessly took his ice cream and began eating it, but hey at least he seemed to enjoy it, perhaps they were back on 'talking terms' at least

You alright? You seemed rather shaken up there, do you want me to escort you back to Bizville?

(Brushfire jumps, before looking at Griefer.)

"Oh- Oh. Youre here too. At.. The Trinity.. Right. I forgot." ' 'I'm.. fine.' '

Brad slowly nodded, though he rubbed the back of his neck to ease the growing tension there

As for Brad's expression, he wasn't really sad or mad, but more so disappointed; both at the situation and himself

Brad stood up as he stretched, though he had decided that he'd speak with Gavin after the doctors visit

Yes, yes, fine...Look, it's just a harmless check-up; we aren't doing this out of spite or anything. If you get glasses, look at the bright side, your headaches will go away.

Pest sighed as he shook his head though he began brushing the bugs off from Brad first, he could easily shake them off himself

Alright, you're all clear, come on, let's get back to the car

"I didnt hear anybody call shotgun, so.."

Brad was about to comment on it; but a quick glance from Pest shut that down, as he settled on the backseat at least he could lay down

Ah you will be fine; let the hero have the front seat for once.

Pest got into the drivers seat as he began driving back to the town, though he did drive a tiny bit slower this time

...

If 3i7h3r 0f y0u s4ys 4 w0rd, I will-

After being in the doctors office for a good 20 minutes Brad walked out of the room with his head lowered just slightly but even then the glasses were clearly visible

You look ridiculous! Ohhhh man I wish I had a camera!

Pest let out a snort, before he burst out laughing; as he pointed at Brad making everyone else look their way

Here, he has to use this 3 times a day; 2 drops into each eye.

Pest flinched slightly but he still snorted

Eugh...Y34h, 7h4nks, m4n, bu7 s7ill, c0uldn'7 7h3y h4v3 giv3n m3 3y3 c0n74c7s 0r s0m37hing? Figh7ing n0w will b3 h4rd3r...

Brad wanted to remove his glasses right there, but he'd be wasting Gavin's money and he'd likely get another pair anyways

And if 7h3y br34k i'd h473 70 im4gin3 7h3 r3p4ir 4nd r3pl4c3m3n7 c0s7s; I'd r47h3r sp3nd i7 0n s0m37hing c00l...

All he could do was just sigh and nod, the only positive that they had a defensive "barrier" for computer light

Don't worry about that; they have a 4-year warranty, and don't worry about people making fun of you too much.

(He lifted Brads head, fixing the glasses on his face.) "Its not that bad, youre alright. 4 year warrantyy, aaannd.. do you really get into fights that often? Besides when i call you into battle.."

"Seeing the frames in your vision might take a bit to get used to, yeah, but i think youll be fine. I mean, i won all of my fights with my mask on. Just imagine how much of my vision that obscures, yeah?"

Brad stared daggers at Pest, but he slowly wiggled his way out of the hug, not roughly enough to hurt Gavin but he wasn't in the mood for a hug

I7's 700 h07 70 d0 4ny7hing 4c7iv3 4nyw4y, b3s7 s4v3 0ur 3n3rgy in c4s3 7h3r3's 4 f0r3s7 fir3 0r s0m37hing...

Brad scoffed as he walked outside though he did motion for Gavin to follow

Hey, come on, man. Learn to take a joke. Admittedly, you look a tiny bit silly right now.

Pest regained himself just enough to follow Brad, even if he was still laughing as he spoke

Others could and will say much worse!

In Pest defense he tried apologizing but for now he was only met by a silent nod

Brad stopped just outside the front porch of the eye doctor's as sat down on the stairs

Y0u s74y...I h4v3 s0m37hing 70 74lk 4b0u7...

He handed enougb bux to get him and Gavin some ice cream but he stopped Gavin from leaving by holding onto the man's arm, not tightly but enough for it to make it harder to wiggle free

Fine fine jeez... I hope this will avoid me having to deal with another one of your temper tantrums later!

Pest scoffed, of course Brad always over reacted, for now he wandered off; he'd just have to guess what type of ice cream they liked

Spoiled Brat...

You alright? You seemed rather shaken up there, do you want me to escort you back to Bizville?

"Oh- Oh. Youre here too. At.. The Trinity.. Right. I forgot." ' 'I'm.. fine.' '

Pest began walking, as he made sure Brad was as comfortable as he could make them

But luckily they don't suck my blood, their buzzing's the main thing that bothers me; that noise makes me cringe so much...

Around them the jungle was silent, seems like most animals were waiting for the heatwave to die down before they'd come to hunt

But luckily they don't suck my blood, their buzzing's the main thing that bothers me; that noise makes me cringe so much...

Brad looked over at Gavin, for some reason after last night's event Brad really felt like Gavin's statement about some "mutant" required investigation

"Youre like.. a beetle, arent you pest? Howd that even happen? Was your mum part beetle too, orr..?" (Gavin looked at Pest, curious...)

Pest snorted as he shook his head, but well he hardly remembered his biological mother, but his bug attributes must've come from somewhere

Brad meanwhile looked around the jungle, he was sure he knew this place like it was his home...Because well it was technically

You can ask Dad once he's back. I am sure he will answer, maybe.

Soon they arrived at the tree; some of the branches were already fully bloomed while other's still hadn't yet; still it was a marvelous sight, unlike last time the tree felt a lot more pretty to look at

Also we are here; lets sit down and rest for a few hours and taken in the nature, eh I am kind of tired after carrying him...

Pest placed Brad down gently, as he sat down right next to him though he did leave enough space for Gavin to join them also

(Gavin froze up for a minute, before taking a step back and rubbing his eyes) "No, no.." (He muttered to himself almost absent mindedly..)

Pest took Brad's hat revealing blooming flowers under it, which made Pest snort

Look at this, dude its hilarious!

Brad's leaves had turned into a blooming pinkish hue, along with him getting pink tattoo like tattos on his skin, thankfully neither brother noticed Gavin's momentary panic

Brad on the other was concerned, was something wrong on instinct he began feeling for anything wrong

Wh4t 1st 1t!? 1s s0m3th1ng wr0ng?!

"Pink..!" (Wheezed and let out a sigh.. sitting back up..) "Though.. i cant make fun of it, it actually looks good.. Look at your arms Brad!"

Brad looked at the markings on his body, they looked cool though a bit concerning perhaps he'd have the doctors look it over once they got back

Ah, luck you! You got tattoos without the annoying steps and pain, you should totally show them off to dad once he arrives, also I know a few people that would be rather jealous!

Pest placed Brad's hat back on his head though he ruffled his hair beforehand

I guess this is how your new body works. Does this mean we have to water you so the plant's wont wither and die?

(He crossed his arms, grinning. Though, his smile faltered for a moment as he remembered his vision, all of the fire..)

(Shudder.)

Brad spoke with a annoyed and whiny tone, yet Gavins tone change made him pause

Y0u w0nd3r wh4t?

Brad turned fully to face Gavin with a questoning expression, wanting ro know what Gavin said next

Ahhh sone fresh air will do you some good, also if you stare at the screen too much you'll need glasses actually how well can you see?

Pest rambled having not noticed the tone shift as of yet, being too focused on the subject of Brad's eyesight

Perhaps you need an eye test...?

Brad gave a worried look; but perhaps he'd push it later when he and Gavin had some time alone; for now he sighed and nodded

I d0n'7 n33d 4n 3y3 d0c70r, I c4n s33 jus7 fin3, my visi0n jus7 blurs s0m37im3s, 4nd I g37 h34d4ch3s, sur3, bu7 I'm n07 g0nn4 h4v3 4ny0n3 m4k3 fun 0f m3 b3c4us3 I w34r gl4ss3s...

Brad did rub his eyes, sure his vision had become blurry from time to time, but the idea of glasses never enticed him; that was for old people like his dad and nerds...

Pest nudged Brad, he was gonna make sure Brad went to the eye doctors the moment they got back, no matter how much the man pleaded

Nobody is gonna make fun of you, and if they do, well, you come and get me!

Only I am allowed to make fun of you; that's what older brothers are for!

Brad rolled his eyes; as he let out a sigh fine he'd go but he wouldn't like it

That'll be for the doctors to judge. We will leave in ten minutes; also, from your comment about your headaches, I think they'll lessen once you wear them!

Pest gave a huff, he hated wasting money but he guessed this was needed and it's not like Brad had a job, so he'd pay.

Pssst, bet you that he will need ultra-strong glasses, 50 bux...

Pest whispered to Gavin knowing this was a easy way to get some of the money back

You alright? You seemed rather shaken up there, do you want me to escort you back to Bizville?
