Pokemon Trainer Blue

“Oh yeah, bad parents suck no matter what - but we ain’t talking about that. All I’m saying is, don’t name your kid something embarrassing just because you like it. Let’s be real, yo - Purple and Orange are easy names to mock, and some kids ain’t so sweet as to just ignore that.”

“You get it, then. Kids are assholes. And no matter how protective you are, people are going to bully your kids if you name them something stupid. Like, I went to an awful high school. I can guarantee you that if a kid named Orange or Purple walked in, they’d never hear the end of it. Amethyst is pretty, but not the other two.” 

“Enough kids get bullied without their parents naming them fucking Orange or Purple. If you really gotta go for a color, do something that doesn’t sound like ya just named ‘em after the paint department at a hardware store. Lavender is better than Purple, for one thing.”

“Don’t look at me like that. You were the one considering Orange and Purple.”

“Who the fuck names their kid Orange?”

He gives no reaction to the hug, though he does respond verbally, “… I’m not glaring.”

– if he opens his mouth on this topic, there’s no telling how quickly he’ll wind up punching someone in the throat.

“Yes I do dare. Ya can be mad at me all ya like, but--ya know, just talk to him instead.” She shows her Master Ball and tosses it up to the air to reveal Mewtwo in front of the other one. She wasn’t going to catch the other Mewtwo, had no desire whatsoever for such a thing. She just wanted her Mewtwo to have more friends, more like it that it could relate to.

initially yellow’s smile only seemed to brighten, ready to support her friend so wholeheartedly, but the way that blue seems to play down her own achievements - and her own appearance - has her placing a hand on the brunette’s, squeezing it tight and almost adoringly. with a softened look that said ‘why do you do that?’, yellow only steps closer, still smiling - albeit it’s gotten smaller.

“you’re selling yourself short too.” her eyes are twinkling with admiration, voice soft with empathy, as expected of the healer. “being able to battle the elite four…successfully passing a trust exercise to catch mewtwo…red and green set impossibly high standards, i get it. but you’re right up there with them too. it’s not everyday you can say mewtwo has endeared itself to just any ol’ regular trainer!” with that, she giggles, before glancing down at the hand she’s yet to let go of.

“you’re very pretty, too, and i’m exceedingly proud of you for getting all confident and growing up! looking to support me…really, you’ve always been by my side more than anyone else, haven’t you?” the blonde’s voice lowers shyly, to barely above a whisper, cheeks dusted with a timid bright red. “it’s really flustering, you know, to be under the eye of a goddess herself…!”

“I guess you’re right. Red and Green are like titans. Its hard ta compare.” The idea Yellow through at her though was nice to hear. Being given Mewtwo’s grace and trust was no small feat. A Pokemon genetically created by Team Rocket as one of the most powerful Pokemon to exist and it was hers! She loved him though. She showed him the better side of humanity to the best of her ability. 

But Yellow just did something unexpected and it was smooth, really smooth!

“Goddess? What are ya talkin’ about... I’m no Goddess... If-If I’m a Goddess then you’re an.. you’re an angel.” What was she doing??? Why was she trying to flirt with Yellow like that when she knew for a fact that her crush could never be a reality. She only flirted with people she didn’t like, but she also never stuttered or got this flustered by it before. Perhaps it was because Yellow was just so pure and cute in everything she does and says. Stupid, Blue... Stupid!

A little ditty in her head snapped as it just said fuck it. She was never going to get anywhere without taking risks and damn it, she should take a risk! She heard Green in the back of her head telling her to take the chance and not be a coward or else he’d have to smell her later... how she hated that phrase he used.
