Vance offered to train Aria all night.

“Sure, if you guys are down for it, then train hard!”

Vance gives you a thumbs up. Aria, not to be out-posed, hums a tune, does a spin, poses as if she’s laying on the air, and gives a thumbs up.

“Cute,” you tell her as you toss a berry to snack on. It hits her square in the forehead when she fails to catch it. “Hey, maybe you can work on dodging too, if you don’t mind.”

Vance gives her a slap on the back. “You bet!”

“And thanks again.”

“It’s the least I can do. Alright, Aria. Let’s do Relic Song and get to work!”

She gives a fighting pose. She looks like a cute idol. Except you can see the determination in her eyes. Ever since she was humbled, she’d taken training seriously. You know Vance doesn’t mess around when it comes to training either. You hope Aria knows what she’s getting into

You head back to the hotel. You’re pooped.

You tell Jeanine where Vance is and she rolls her eyes. “Up all night with another girl. I should be jealous.”

You crawl into bed with Clair and Robin. They’re already asleep.

You wake up the next morning feeling rested. Clair makes a great pillow these days

You grab some quick snack breakfast food and head straight back to the training area.

Before you get the whole way though, you turn the corner and almost run directly into the Devon Corp agent. “Kat! Baby! How are you doing?” He puts his arm around you. He has a different camera crew with him. “I know you’re probably busy, but we’d love to get some time with you for an interview. We really want to get your point of view for some questions.”

“Now really isn't the best time,” you pull his arm off your shoulder. “So I guess, ‘no comment’, or whatever the phrase is.”

“Oh, but you don’t even know what we’re going to ask!” A lady with a mic sticks it in front of you. ”We only need a few minutes of your time. I should warn you that you might not come off looking great by declining to answer. There are a lot of rumours flying about.”

You pause and look at her. “Is that a threat?”

“We just want the most interesting infotainment for our viewers tonight.” she smiles back.

The agent whispers to you. “A big royalty cheque is coming in tomorrow for the end of the fiscal year, but if they run a slam piece on you and you come out looking bad, it might tank your marketability and result in little to no merchandising sales in the future. I don’t want that, I got a lot of bonuses tied to you from that last contract, but I don’t have much say in this. A major stockholder used a lot of sway to make this happen.”

You see Dick across the street. He grins and waves.

Damnit! You’re not that worried about the money, but life could get hard for you and the people around you if the public hates you. If you decline, you bet it’ll blow over after awhile. If you take an interview and look dumb, you could make it worse. If you defend yourself well though, maybe you can flip this on Dick.

“How about later tonight?”

“We really wouldn’t have time to edit.”

“We can do it live then.”

She considers it. They can’t edit it to make you look bad.

The agent steps forward. “That’s a great idea. I’ll make the arrangements.” He leans close to you. “I hope you know what you’re doing. They’re going to throw every bit of dirt they can dig up at you.”

You shake his hand. “Thanks for the heads up.”

The interviewer woman hands you a card with a location written on it. You leave before they can rope you into anything else.

Vance and Aria are resting at the training area. Both have a towel around their necks, water, and fresh sweat.

“Hey!” Vance waves weakly. At least, weakly for him. “Aria worked very hard. We learned Zen Headbutt and Giga Impact.”

“That’s amazing!” You’re genuinely impressed.

Aria jumps up, doing various martial arts kicks and punches in the air. Vance tosses his waterbottle to her, and she spins to avoid it, then grabs it before it completely passes by to throw it back at him. It explodes on the forearm he blocks with.

“We worked on dodging and counter attacking too. It’s nowhere near Destiny’s level, but she’s a a natural in her Fighting form.”

“Wow!” you’re amazed. “Vance! Aria, that’s incredible! Thank you!”

He smiles, lifting the bags under his eyes. “It’s only because Aria is so pumped.”

Aria flops back onto the bench, exhausted. She falls asleep almost immediately. You bring her to the nurse in the training area. Pokemon centers can make up for missed sleep, but only in the short term. You can’t do this all the time.

You have all day today to train, and tomorrow morning. You double check your matchup information and see that it’s going to be a 5v5. If you beat Dick, you’ll get a chance to challenge the first Elite 4 member, Cliff.

Aria will be ready in a short time. The Pokemon centers on this island are all top notch.

Who will you train for the morning?

You take out Raistlin first. He greets you dryly. He knows what’s on your mind and ready to get to work without any fuss.

You figure you can probably do some testing to make sure he has his other moves down, and if there are no problems, start on a new move or work on a strategy or stat.

You take Devon out. You’ll need his help with this. He leaps onto Raistlin, licking his face.

First you run him through drills with Psych Up and Dazzling Gleam. It’s been awhile since you worked on these moves, but Raistlin remembers the training and has been giving some thought. He proves he can use both under pressure.

After that, you get Devon’s help to teach him Miracle Eye. He takes to it well. That makes sense, it’s something his species learns. You also make great time on Recover. You think he was able to learn that extra fast thanks to the times you’ve meditated with him. His inner focus has always been a strong point.

Devon jumps up and licks your face, then he leaps to Raistlin. This time Raistlin teleports away. Devon chases him all over the room, causing Raistlin to teleport more.

Whew. Well, that was a productive morning. Who will you spend the afternoon training? You’ll have the evening to train too, but right after that you’ll have to take your interview.

You decide to take a break from training and get ready for the interview. You hate losing training time, but this is important too. You don’t want to let this sort of underhanded tactic work, on you or anybody else.

Besides, people like you now. You have friends, supporters in your home town, and even had a great time with strangers the other night. You’re able to see a new person and no immediately size them up as a threat or a target. You won’t let Dick take that away from you.

You arrange for a discrete lunch with the Devon Corp agent. “It’s pretty heavy, Kat baby,” he slides you a piece of paper. “Somebody spent a fortune trying to get anything remotely bad sounding they could on you. A lot of half-truths, things out of context, and hearsay. If it weren’t directly messing with my bread and butter, I’d be impressed. They’ll try to trap you into saying something incriminating. They’ll try to get under your skin. You can’t let them.”

You look over the list of things they’ll ask you about. It’s handwritten notes.

- Imply she convinced Robin to run away from a loving home.
- Accepted viscountess title (imply she took advantage of her resemblance to missing royal daughter to emotionally manipulate, or imply she slept with a member for it.)
- Possibly involved with Team Imperium? (Questioned by the police several times in regards to Team Imperium. We have no access to police records to get details.)
- She once bloodied a trainers nose after a match. We have interview footage with him explaining his side.
-She assaulted Richard with a punch to the groin on her show (roll footage when asking). When will her violent rampage come to an end?
- Question how she got her badges (we learned she bunks with Psychic gym leader. Imply nepotism or sex to get her badge)
Long list of thefts and other crimes - (We can’t confirm her criminal record. Underage. Ask her about the rumours)
- Apparently she passed up a chance to meet her long lost father. (We have staff trying to track him down for a surprise meeting. Do whatever it takes to show him as sympathetic as possible. Make her seem heartless.)

You sit back in your corner booth. They’re really going all out. If you didn’t have this list, even you’d be tripped up from being surprised by all this.

“It’s an ugly business, Kat, but this is the worst I've seen it. That Richard kid has very rich parents, and he’s pulled every string possible for this.” He checks over his shoulder. “I can have the footage of the interview with that other trainer you beat up vanish. That cowboy with the Rapiddash. I’d need bribe money to make it happen though. With enough, I might even be able to make sure they can’t fly in your dad in time, if you want to avoid that.”

I can't think of a spin to put on that one. The Dad thing can be spun with 'After you throw something in the trash, why would you want it back unless you found out it could make you money?'. But I've got nothing on the Assualt one...
Anyone else got an idea for a spin on the assault?

Pretty sure the punching counts as assault. May not want to cop to that

>>44141268
Well, it's Kat so it can't be helped.

>>44141310
>Anyone else got an idea for a spin on the assault?
Pokeymon abuser? Also, I half expect dad to turn out to be an ok guy.

>>44141378
That'd just be kinda annoying. Kat hasn't shown much interest in her parents, so if they were decent people it'd just complicate things - plus it'd look bad in the interview too.

>>44141190
>Give him the money to make the interview with assaulted trainer not show

We took out his Rapidash and he was yelling at it and giving it emotional abuse trying to get it to stand back up. He might have pulled a knife at some point? I know he had a knife at least.

“No. No bribes or any sketchy stuff. I’ll handle it.”

He takes out a cigarette. “Suit yourself.”

You keep your eyes on the list. “Thanks. For bringing me this, I mean.”

He lights his smoke, ignoring the looks from other people in the cafe. “Don’t. Like I said, it’s an ugly business sometimes. It doesn’t have to be, but it is. And as long as it is, you can’t expect anybody do you any favors. I’m just helping you to help myself.”

“Still, thanks.”

He takes a puff. “You’re a good kid, Kat. If things go well tonight, and you’re still willing to work in showbiz, you feel free to call me any time to do a season 2, or any other project you want to pitch.” He leaves enough money to pay for both of your coffees.

You’re going to have an interesting time. At least you know the questions going in.

You still have the evening to train.

I dunno, Kat should look normal and natural for it. Looking too prepared will seem fake too.

>>44141704
there was another one, I think

>>44141779
I only copied the relevant bits where he's being an ass to his pokemon. We attacked him right after that point, a slap then a punch to the jaw.

Honestly, I do think we're in the wrong about resorting to violence here. I mean he's obviously an asshole, but we didn't have to hit him for it.

Here's where it happens:
http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/31163397/

Not sure if someone has asked this already, but why not run absolutely every plan past Raistlin? Even if he's a little clueless where it comes to relationships and socialness (which I doubt) he's still like forty times as smart as us.

>>44141851
>"Dark Pulse! Blow it away!" Devon digs in just as you know he would. He does that when he wants to go full power on something. A ball of darkness forms in his mouth for half a second before he fires a powerful beam.

>Lampent never stood a chance. The blast of darkness connects and sends in skidding into the ground. It grinds through the dirt, spraying up pebbles and clumps of earth. You see it's arms float from side to side as it lays there.

>"Good job Devon!" You're proud of him. He can really unleash when he wants.

>"We're not done yet! Lampent! Get up! Momento!" His Lampent doesn't move. "I said get up!"

>It struggles up. It's clearly beyond the ability to fight. "Momento! Let's go!"

>It's eyes glow as it glares at Devon. You see Devon shiver for a second before Lampent collapses.

>>44141914
Yep, Kat is very much a hypocrite.

>>44141877
plans don't survive contact with the enemy. There's too much we don't know and too much random luck involved in order to really plan the battle out.

>>44141973
How? We never really ordered a pokemon to get up multiple times. Unless you're counting about our round 1 match which we feel really shitty about.

>>44141973
how?

>>44141973
the hell are you on about? That's the Hunter's Lampent that got nuked, and Devon was fine

>>44142005
even then it wasn't an "order" to keep fighting so much as the decision not to pull devon. We didn't force him to stay on the field, or demand he put more in than he was able to

>>44141973
Well, to be fair Devon wanted to get back up of his own accord because he loves us and we would have told him he did great even if he lost.

Hunter on the other hand told his Mankey that he was disappointed in it even after it gave its best. This implies that his pokemon might be determine to get up and fight because they are abused emotionally or physically rather than because they love Hunter.

>>44142007
>That's the Hunter's Lampent that got nuked, and Devon was fine
Our first match in the league, Devon coud have gotten a permanent limp notunlike the Houndour that Robin's father trained or even died after we pushed him too far. Don't get me wrong, this kind of irony is the sweetest juice of storytelling, but Kat does have a case of do as I say, not as I do.

>>44142098
yep, it's totally the same situation because an injury could happen in both cases. You definitely understand context.

Also, I'm pretty sure Kat would have shared the limp, seeing as we were sharing senses

For the Hunter part of the interview, we should probably just own up to it. Yes, his treatment of his pokemon pissed us off so we hit him. We still think he's an asshole, especially to his pokemon, but we were in the wrong for hitting him, sorry.

>>44142169
Pretty sure we don't think we're wrong though,

And we'd do it again given the chance.

>>44142195
You think hitting him is going to solve anything? Cause I really don't think so. I'm not saying were wrong about hating his guts and disliking how he treats his pokemon, but violence just wasn't the answer and I think that Kat is over her emotional wounds enough at this point to acknowledge that and probably wouldn't hit someone in the same situation anymore.

>>44142256
Yeah, but this is Kat, and while violence isn't always the answer, it's still a good, reliable fall back.

>>44142276
When was the last time she resorted to violence? We've actually talked things out much more than we've attacked people, there's a reason they only have two reported incidents to bring against us. Hunter and Dick are the only people we have hit when not in self defense I'm pretty sure. Maybe Delmer at some point.

You go back to the hotel, sit cross legged on your bed, and meditate.

“Hello,” your darker self says. “Trying to relax? I bet your dad isn’t relaxed. He probably wants to get to know you.”

“I don’t care. He threw me out. Besides, you don’t know that.”

“You don’t know it’s wrong. Maybe he had a good reason. He could have been too young to take care of you. Or maybe he didn’t even know you existed. We don’t know anything about our mom.”

“I. Don’t. Care.” you tell her. “I’ve been over all the possibilities, and the only thing I know for sure is that I don’t need him. I have a family."

“What about the jerk abusing his Pokemon. Don’t you think you went overboard?”

“If that abuse is what he let strangers see, who knows how bad he was to his Pokemon when nobody else is around.”

She smiles condescendingly. “And do you think you helped them, or just made yourself feel better?”

You exhale slowly. “I don’t know. Maybe I made him rethink things, maybe I made him better at covering up, or maybe what I did caused him to take it out on his Pokemon. I lashed out in anger, I don't know the consequences, but I can’t change the past.”

She frowns. “You’re getting harder to trap. I guess you’re better at managing anger after all.”

A small plastic figure of Levi drops down from the darkness. You pick it up and attach it to your bracelet. You’re glad she avoided mentioning how you pushed Devon. You feel that’ll be harder.

You open your eyes. It’s time for the interview. You rush to the spot, ready for them to try their worst.

“Cutting the time close,” someone says as they usher you to your seat in the small studio. Someone attaches a mic to your shirt. The interviewer is getting a make-up touch-up. She smiles when she sees you, ushers the make-up people away, and the camera crew zooms in.

“Kat! Glad you could join us.”

“I'm glad to be here,” you lie through your teeth. It seems like the polite thing to say, though.

“Now, as anyone who’s watched your show knows, you and another trainer in the league, Robin, have been dating for some time.”

“Yes.” You nod. You’re being careful with your wording.

“Some people have said that, as a troubled child, you might be seen as a destructive influence. We understand she ran away from home, under your urging. Did you resent that she had a happy family and you didn't?”

>Her mom and dad are crazy!
>Her family affairs are private.
>She chose to leave on her own. You support any decision she makes.
>Be sarcastic. Yes, you managed to break up a happy family with your mind-control powers because all orphans are just secretly jealous villains.

Wasn’t suggesting that we say that last one, rather offering an alternative to >She left to fulfill her dream to compete in the league instead of being a gym leader.
Mainly becajse she didn't want to become champ at first as far as we know
Sorry I didn't make that clear.

“Robin chose to leave on her own. She’s a smart, capable girl, well above the age needed to leave on a journey, and I support any decision she makes.”

“Even if that means abandoning her family?”

“Well, she’s certainly seen more of her mother since leaving her home town. She’s also found her own goal to compete in the league instead of running the Kindletown gym. I don’t think it’s right to go too much into a teenage girl’s private family affairs though, do you?”

She frowns, just a tiny bit. You’re not the easy target she thought you were. “We’ve heard you’ve accepted a title and lands from the royal family.”

The official announcement isn’t out yet. They have tendrils everywhere. You don’t offer anything. You just let her continue.

“It’s a rare occasion that somebody gets a title like that. Especially a relative unknown. One thing that everyone comments on is your stark resemblance to the royal family’s long lost heir. We’ve even heard people report that Queen Josephine as calling you by her daughter’s name. How do you respond to allegations that you used your resemblance to manipulate a poor, distraught mother and beloved public figure?”

I think "Jerk" or "Scrublord" would suffice

>>44143363
and, more importantly, Hornbeam'll probably have an aneurysm if we call him an entry-level scrub on national television

What would be the time investment to train a pokemon to have 100% secondary effect activation chance on all moves, assuming they had something like Serene Grace to help them out?

“There was a very ugly revenge scheme where a disgruntled, loser scientist tried a desperate revenge scheme that took advantage of my orphan status and the royal family’s tragedy. You can see how the entire thing unfolded on my show.”

“And your new title?”

“I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to say anything before the royal family makes any announcements. Say, how did you hear about that anyway?”

She pauses. “It’s...a journalist's job to learn these things and inform the public.”

“Is that what you meant by providing ‘infotainment’ before?” You ask innocently.

She fakes a smile. “Moving on. It’s been reported that you've been involved in several incidents with the criminal organization known as Team Imperium.” She takes out a list. “Once as part of a heist in Chloroville where you allegedly had a fistfight with one of your travelling companions, Vance. There were also allegations that you and your friends had been seen at bar exclusive to the gang in Braundalin. Some say you were at the scene of a bust in the abandoned mines outside of Alloycaster.”

She’s actually missing a few incidents, but you don’t help her.

“We also have information that your associate, Jeanine, is in possession of Pokemon that were stolen by Team Imperium.”

>She’s rehabilitating abused Pokemon that were rescued from Team Imperium
>You've broken up several Team Imperium operations, and you’re proud of it

These details are part of an open investigation and saying too much might tip our hand. needless to say the we're working with the proper authorities to get this resolved.

Imagine hornbeam et al. shitting themselves in fear of a no knock raid on their basements. it gets us out of the question and bluffs our position with team imperium.

>>44143683

we really aren't directly involved in proper investigations and Jeanine/Vance were in fact involved in illegal vigilante operations against Imperium. Probably best not to make this insinuation.

>>44143683
also mention how jeninie just spent the past 3 months helping fight team ipmerium

>>44143874
Let's not since that's probably illegal.

“I’ve stopped a few Team Imperium crimes and operations. They're an unfortunate problem in our region. The first time I encountered them, they were robbing a karaoke place I was in.”

“Why have you never mentioned this before? Were you trying to hide something?”

“Yes.”

She looks surprised, but she doesn’t hesitate to pounce. “Why would an innocent person hide this information?”

“We managed to stop them from getting away with anyone’s Pokemon, but Vance was hit with a confusion attack and accidentally hit me. He’s a very sweet guy and felt awful about it.”

“I see. What about your friend Jeanine’s possession of stolen Pokemon?”

“Well, Jeanine doesn’t like to brag, but yes. She’s been rehabilitating several Pokemon that were rescued from Team Imperium, with the blessings of the lab they were stolen from. She’s a very skilled Aura Reader, and really dedicated to understanding how people and Pokemon feel. She’s a good friend, too.”

“And yet she hasn’t been a strong enough influence keep you out of trouble. We have at least two recorded incidents of you attacking fellow trainers. Roll the clip.”

A recording plays from your show where you punch Dick in the dick. Another clip, of the trainer you punched, talking your attack.

“She just hit me! Right after winning a match! It was out of nowhere. I think she was upset about how much money she won. All I know for sure is that she’s a psychopath. Her friends had to pull her off of me.”

The clip ends and the interviewer turns back to you. “How do you justify such a violent streak?”

>That guy is abusive to his Pokemon. You’d punch him again in a heartbeat.
>You were angry about how he treated his Pokemon, but you’re sorry for hitting him
>He was going to pull a knife on you! (present his knife)
>Just laugh at the clip of Dick getting sacked. It’s funny

>You were angry about how he treated his Pokemon, but you’re sorry for hitting him
This:
>>44144335
Its pretty neutral and will hopefully distract from the fact that we didn't apologize for the nut punch. Cause I'm pretty sure none of us are sorry for hitting Dick.

>>44144215
> "Hey can we get that nut punch played again?"
> "Now once more in slow motion?"

Maybe we can say something about how Dick was being a perv and making us and our friends uncomfortable. I remember him constantly propositioning us and Robin.

>>44144605
If the lady brings up how we aren't sorry for it, then this has my vote. Honestly, he was pretty insistent about getting a battle, if we hadn't resorted to a nut punch who knows how long he would have stalked us for. I mean he specifically came to find us on the road in the middle of nowhere, creepy much?

“Dick’s repeated propositions and unwelcome, sexual comments about myself and my friends, after tracking us down in the middle of nowhere, made me lose my patience and temper.”

“Dick? Richard, you mean.”

“No. I mean Dick.”

“And what about your attack on the other trainer?”

“I was angry at how he was treating his Pokemon. I got upset, and I made a mistake. All I can say is that I'm only human. I get upset and angry and I make mistakes. The only thing I can do is try to learn from them and move on to be the better person that I've been trying to become. I'm sorry I did it.”

She doesn't have much to work with there. “So you admit to attacking another trainer. That should be no surprise to anyone who’s familiar with your delinquent past.” She decides to skip giving you a chance to answer that. You travel with the psychic gym leader, Clair, is this right?”

“Yes. We became friends after we battled in her gym.”

“So you claim you won that badge fairly?”

That was the first time you had a Pokemon mega-evolve. You can’t help but feel bitter at her dismissing Devon’s effort like this. “Yes.”

“Well, in some clips of your show, some scenes show her using yours and Robin’s tent. Some people have also claimed that the three of you share hotel rooms, beds, and even showers. What’s the real relationship between you and Clair?”

>Just rumours. Clair is a friend.
>Clair is your’s and Robin’s lover.
>Clair is your’s and Robin’s lover. We get up to some kinky stuff. (Go into explicit, unbelievable detail on live TV)

most trainers realize that while you're on the road you bond with your companions. There's no place for prudish modesty in the field. Our friendship with Clair began AFTER the match, and we've never had a say in the way she ran her gym

>>44144770

Add on top the mention of beds, where do you just listen to heresay or is someone claiming to have watched us sleep?

“What are you trying to get at, exactly?”

“Well, don’t you think it’s unusual?”

“For friends to share a room? You know the Pokemon Center's showers are communal right?” You take a breath. “I think I’ve been pretty reasonable, putting up with everything tonight. As a ‘journalist’ you can easily verify with the referee or Judy at Clair’s gym that I won the battle fair and square.”

“We-”

You cut her off “And who’s been watching me sleep and shower anyway? I think that’s the real question here.”

You catch a few crewmembers hide a laugh. You’ve made a mockery of this mockery.

You lean back into your chair. You know what’s coming next, but you've handled everything else so well that you’re confident you can handle this too. “Please, continue.”

She regains her composure. “Rumour has it that your father has been found, but you chose not to meet him.” That’s not a rumour. Nobody knows about that except for the professor, the assistant he fired, your friends, and maybe a few other people at his lab.

A silhouette appears behind the screen you’re interviewing in front of. He’s there, on the other side. You can see him fidget. Your heart skips a beat. You knew this was coming, but it’s all so real now that he’s here.

“Please, tell our audience; why was that?”

>You just couldn't handle it
>How dare they make a spectacle of your life like this!
>Deny it came up
>He had sixteen years to come get you. After you throw something in the trash, why would you want it back unless you found out it could make you money?

>>Because I really don't care. I have a real family now.

Because I was finally able to move on from the resentment I felt towards my parents and the resentment I felt towards myself.

>>44145485

>>44145485
>I've been busy with the League recently, and it's been sixteen years, if my father cared about me he would be more than willing to wait untill the end of the league to see me instead of dumping all of this on me just now, and if he doesn't care meeting him would be pointless"


Gulit the fucker before he comes from behind the screen make him stay back there

>>44145505
This. We can deal with this shit some other time.

>>44145485

>He had sixteen years to come get you. After you throw something in the trash, why would you want it back unless you found out it could make you money?

>>44145505
This too.

>>44145485
>Because I really don't care. I have a real family now.
>I thought about getting into contact with him, but I wanted to wait until after the League. A few months is immaterial compared to 16 years.

>>44145485
>Because I really don't care. I have a real family now.
>And come on that could be anybody behind that screen

>>44145485
>Two reasons. 1) I didn't want to deal with the drama of it right before or during the League (Thanks so much for that by the way) and 2) I didn't feel like I really needed to meet some stranger when my friends and pokemon are already all the family I need.

>>44145485
"Because family isn't genetics. Family is who stands by you when life is hardest. I've got my own family, my own responsibilities. When I'm not dealing with the League, I'll sit down and have a talk with my dad. But I'd rather it be a private moment."

>>44145485
"I guess I just got made peace with not having parents and didn't really feel like changing that for now. I mean, back when that jerk professor I was talking about tricked me and the royal family into thinking I was a princess, I STILL wanted to live as I do now."

>>44145485
>He had sixteen years to come get you. After you throw something in the trash, why would you want it back unless you found out it could make you money?
>Something else
Tell her that realistically speaking we wouldn't be opposed to meeting our family, but it shouldn't be at the top of our priority list. Since we were abandoned we aren't going to drop everything in our lives to find the people who left us.
Obviously we should turn this situation into something that benefits us and makes us look like a more mature, experienced trainer and person.

>You know, this is the second time someone has tried to guilt me over a man who never raised me.

>>44145485
>Why would I?

>>44145485
>Something else
"Because how could reopening that old wound ever be worth it? Knowing the reasons doesn't change anything about my life until now, so why look back when moving forward is how I've survived?"

>>44145485
So I guess generally speaking we feel like we don't need a dad, but we were thinking of eventually seeing him later?

>>44145676
I feel like that Kat in general has formed the opinion that everyone is deserving of a second chance. Kinda how she developed to forgive herself. It would be kinda hypocritical to not offer him a chance to meet. But if the man truly has any sort of respect for us, not now.

i'll drink to that

>>44145730
Yeah I mean I don't feel comfortable assuming he's a complete asshole, but I just don't really feel like dealing with him right now.

"I've been busy with the League, in case you didn't notice."

The interviewer overacts in indignant shock. “Too busy to meet your family for the first time?”

“That’s exactly it! Because it’s the first time! How is that family? Family isn't genetics. Family is who stands by you when life is hardest. I've got my own family, my own responsibilities. When I'm not dealing with the League, I'll sit down and have a talk with my dad.”

“You don’t want to meet him now?”

You choke back the lump in your throat. “He had sixteen years to come get me. After you throw something in the trash, why would you want it back unless you found out it could make you money? This is the second time someone has tried to guilt me over a man who never raised me. I've had my whole life to make peace with it. So, why? Why would I reopen that wound now? If I can wait my whole life, he can wait until later.”

He freezes. He drops his hat, then leaves, saying nothing. The studio is filled with a dense, heavy silence, except for the sound of the door closing behind your dad.

>Leave
>Leave, stepping on the hat on the way out
>Leave, picking up the hat on the way out
>Launch into a tirade at the interviewer for this
>Look into the camera and promise Dick that you’ll destroy him tomorrow in the match

Goddamn it why did you guys have to be so bitter? You can tell from body language that this guy isn't a huge jerk.

He is obviously distraught at hearing that. There's got to be more to this story than we know. Might as well not burn our bridges yet.

>>44145838
>Leave, picking up the hat on the way out

>>44145838

>>44145870
Maybe, maybe not. Why should we care?

>>44145838
>>Leave, picking up the hat on the way out


>>44145870
Most of the not bitter people posted late

>>44145838
>>Leave, picking up the hat on the way out

>>44145838
Honestly now I'd like to catch up with him where there aren't cameras.

>>44145884
pls no

>>44145838
>Leave, picking up the hat on the way out
>>44145884
>>wear hat during match against dick

also that

>>44145870
Even so trying to force this on Kat on live tv was not cool and he should have known better than to agree to something like that

>>44145899
>>44145884

We still don't actually know this guy.

>>44145884
>>44145899
>just made a big deal about not wanting to deal with it until after the league
>let's wear his hat so papa will love me

>>44145918
We dont know him, but it'll hopefully let him know to send a message next time for a proper meet up.

>>44145918
Eh, it might get put to a vote later. I'm not totally sold on wearing it, but it could be a good way to say that we're still willing to talk to him later.

>>44145884
>>44145899
Sorry, no

>>44145838
Happy now? You have your cheap drama.
>Leave, picking up the hat on the way out

>>44145838
When do you think you'll be running next?

>>44145896
>>44145918
It's just one match. I'm not saying dedicate our victory to him or anything.
Think of it as a "fuck you" to dick, for the whole interview thing.

Though, what if our dad is Ash?

>>44145908
He really did show up during a take-down interview. That's not great decision-making.

>>44145884
No. Let's not do the opposite of what we just said.

>>44145939
>>44145937
I'm pretty sure we could ask Professor Fir to relay a message?

>>44145838
>>Something else
>Anything else?

>>44145956
Ten year olds can't father children anon

>>44145899
>>44145884
Lets not anon. I want to take the hat but fuck wearing it.

>>44145956
That'd suck. Ash is a shit trainer.

>>44145958
There's a good chance he was misled just to get him there and try to throw us off our game.

>>44145982
In the gen 4 show he was actually incredibly competent.

>>44145977
Alright then just taking it then.

What if he isn't a pokemon trainer at all?
Like he's just that one guy that doesn't have one and doesn't really get it all

>>44145989
Thats actually what I think is most likely. I actually feel bad for the guy. I highly doubt he briefed honestly on this whole situation.

>>44145989
Sitting behind a curtain with a bunch of cameras around? It was bound to be a media circus of some kind even if it wasn't a takedown.

>>44145838
What kind of hat is it?
This is important

>>44145990
And then he promptly forgot everything he'd ever learned by the next season.

>>44145997
He's a magician, that's why we are good with our hands and pickpocketing and shit, good hand genetics

>>44145958
I'll admit that that does not make him look good, but considering his body language he also doesn't seem like a complete asshole.

Honestly it's hard to tell what his deal is.

[Thanks for coming everyone! I very probably won't be able to run tomorrow. Work has been surprisingly busy too. Maybe we'll be able to sneak a quick thread on either Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, but I can't really confirm right now. The 18th, 19th, and 20th for sure won't work. Probably a thread on either the 21st or 22nd or both if I can help it.]

At least we have his hat now. Can tell a lot about a man from his hat.

>>44146040

>>44146019
That's the writer's fault, it shifted again.

Thanks for running Gobble.

>>44149404
Why bumpu?

>>44149404
Let's not. It'd just make things worse.

Besides, that flaccid little Dick deserves it more.

>>44146057
Just because it's the writers fault that Ash is a shit trainer, doesn't make him any less of a shit trainer.

So what can we do to get revenge on Dick?

>>44150437
BTFOing him tommorrow

>>44150437
By dancing around all his attempts at sabotaging us and hopefully beating him in the match. All while being the very picture of a good sport.

>>44150437
Seduce his girlfriend

>>44150841
Can't seduce what he doesn't have.

Because he has ED
