You hold Mace tight for a little longer.

“Oh! Right!” You take out a potion and apply it to the small rock pokemon. “There you go.”

He perks up a bit. He’s still very tired looking, but a lot better than how he seemed a minute ago. He points to the boldore that’s on a tiny island in the middle of the swamp.

“He’s in trouble, huh?”

You watch the various blobs under the water circle around. You don’t know who that boldore is or what pokemon those could be, but you have to help.

You take out your pokedex to try to get some information, but it fails. It can’t see through the muddy water.

Your two pokemon are worn out, and you’re outnumbered by whatever is in the water. There’s got to be maybe 6 or 7 of them, and maybe more you don’t see.

You need a plan.

>Just swim over there and try to carry it back. Those pokemon probably won’t attack a human

We should start by chucking something (be it a not-best rock or some food) far off to one side of the water.

You’ve got it! You’ll act as a distraction so that boldore can get away.

Standing up, you let the rock pokemon see you. At least, whatever it’s equivalent of seeing it. You try to signal that you’re going to give it a chance to get out of there. You’re not sure if your intentions are clear. It seems to acknowledge something, though.

You throw a rock to the far side of the bank to see what happens first. It lands with heavy sounding splunk. A second later, a pokemon flies out of the water, then dives back in after it. It doesn’t look vicious at all.

But on the other hand, neither do pikachu.

Gobble and Mace aren’t sure what their part in this is

>"Stay close to me and back me up if they get close."

“You two go help Boldore once I distract them, okay?

Gobble looks to you, unsure about your plan.

“I’ll be fine,” you say as you pet him on the head. “Don’t worry.”

Gobble believes you. Mace still looks skeptical, but also anxious about the boldore and doesn't have a better plan.

You send those two a little upstream, then move a little farther down. You take out your pan and a rock.

Okay, here goes.

CLANG CLANG CLANG. You pound on it as you march around the edge of the water. You start yelling. “Ah blahbahah! Rabhlagrlh! Look at me! Look at me!”

A few blobs swim to the surface and look at you. Some of the farther off ones are still hanging around the island.

>Get in the water and get closer.
>Throw the rock at the farther ones. They might not like that, though.
>Good enough. Signal your pokemon to go help.
>Pick a fight with the closer ones. That will draw them all for sure, and you have a head start to run

You take out some pokemon food. Hey, it works, right?

The first few start approaching cautiously. You toss a small nibble’s worth to the closest. It zooms away before it lands, but comes back quickly and snaps it up. Giving a noise of approval, it comes closer to you. The others follow suit.

You toss a few more bits. The farther ones are coming now too. Good. You see Gobble and Mace moving in the back now that the coast is clear.

“That’s right. Come and get it.” You toss out some more bits. “Hey. Slow down. There’s plenty for everyone.” You hope.

They’re getting really aggressive now. Instead of using the bread to lure them, you’re tossing it to keep them away. “Okay everyone. Calm down.” One leaps out of the water and snaps food from your hand. The others are swamping you. You’ll be surrounded in a second, and what’s left of the pokemon food will be gone very shortly at this pace.

“Hey. Hey.” You stand firm instead of continually backing away. A spray of water hits your face. “Hey!”

Your voice always sounded a little high pitched and boyish to you, but it’s much lower than theirs. And every year, it gets deeper. Yeah. You’re a man in some cultures. Not a scared boy. These are harmless, cute little pokemon.

“Everyone be quiet!”

The little water pokemon stop moving and look at you.

Awww. they’re so cute! You feel bad for yelling.

No! Stay strong.

“Alright. Line up. Single file. That’s right. Come on.” You feed the first one in line, then the next. “When you get yours, you go to the back. Got it? Hey! No cutting!”

You sneak a glance over to where Boldore is.

Was.

Good job, team. You aren’t sure where they are, but things are looking good. And just in time, too. You’re running low. The water pokemon have all gotten a decent share. You’re glad they’re so small, because otherwise you might have just whet their appetite.

The next one of them approaches, looking for the last bit of food. You give it the last bit and wipe your hands. It zooms to the back of the line.

The next one comes. He, or she, you don’t know, was the last one to approach, acting the most cautiously. But you’re all out, now. It got less than the rest.

You could cook some more food, but that’d take a lot of trust and probably some luck to assume that nothing else will go wrong. And it’s getting late, too. You’re not sure about staying out here after that Raichu incident. Plus you have your own pokemon to look after.

“That’s it, everyone.” You announce to the line. “All out.”

The mood has become pretty relax. Nobody got stuff, but nobody is hungry.

You kneel down to the little one in front of you. “Hey. Sorry you didn’t get as much. If you come with me, I’ll feed you some more later.” You think it’s a fair offer.

It looks around at the others, who aren’t at all paying attention. Then to the surrounding area, and to you again. You just smile back.

“You don’t have to come. I just thought that since you didn’t get as much as the others...” You trail off. You don’t want to force it.

“Well. okay, then.” You guess it isn't coming. You stretch and slowly make your way back to where Gobble, Mace, and hopefully Boldore should be.

The three of them are soaked, exhausted, and laying on the ground. Gobble gets up to shake off some water. You pat him on the head, then check Mace. Mace gives you a very subtle nod. You understand. He’s glad to see you too, but he just wants to lie down for a minute before you leave.

“Hi, Boldore.”

Boldore moves away from you, not trusting a human. Mace mutters something to him and rolls over. It’s enough to get Boldore to relax, but not entirely.

“So you two are friends, huh?”

Boldore nods, keeping it’s distance. It looks too tired to do much, though.

Well. This is going nowhere slowly.

“Herb!” Valerie yells as she runs over. “My goodness. You look awful. Are you alright?”

You glance over. She came out of nowhere! Bella is riding her Lillipup.

“Doing fine, thanks!” You catch the energetic Bella as she leaps into your arms. “Bella!” You sneak a glance to the water pokemon as you spin her. They’ve mostly dispersed and stay a safe distance away. They’re slowly floating downstream.

Valerie says she’ll call the others and tell them you’re okay. She looks a little tired herself. She talks to who sounds like Hana, but you’re not really paying attention.

“Herb. Herb!” She snaps you out of it. “Are we heading all the way back, or camping? I don’t mind either way.” She motions to her compacted super tent. “But the others want to know.”

“I think everyone is pooped.” You look to your pokemon, but you’re including yourself in that statement, too. “Camping is probably a good idea.”

She nods, then reports it back into her pokedex. You hear Laki’s voice respond. You didn’t catch what she said, but it makes Valerie blush.

“Well then.” She stands up straight and brushes down her dress. “Shall we?”

You’re about to retrieve everyone when Mace gets up. He rushes over to near the swamp.

“Mace, where are you going?”

You follow up in a casual jog. He’s not going too far or fast. You watch as he drags something out of the muddy water. It’s his Macho Brace! Well, what’s left of it. He drags it to your feet and looks down.

“Hey, don’t worry about that thing. I’m just glad you’re okay.”

He looks up.

“And we’ll figure something out with your energy. I know it.”

He doesn’t seem entirely convinced, but he doesn’t look like he wants to talk about it right now. Poor guy looks humiliated.

You pick up all your stuff and retrieve him. Just as you’re leaving, you turn to see the little mudkip. It was watching from the reeds.

“Did you change your mind?”

It makes a noise and follows.

You and Valerie walk a decent distance away to find a dry clearing. Mudkip seems to warm up to her immediately. She likes it too.

“Aren’t you just the cutest!” She pokes it’s nose.

Her tent takes no time at all to set up. You’re a little jealous. You think about what you’re going to do with Mudkup and Boldore. Maybe-

“Herb. If I say something, do you promise not to be offended?”

You glance over. “Umm, okay.”

“You could really use a bath.”

You look at yourself. Yeah. She’s right. You’ve had a long day. “Yeah.”

She leads you to a stream and tosses you a bar of soap. She even has a clean towel. “I’ll be upstream. Come back to the tent when you’re done, okay?”

“Sure!”

“And Herb. I’m glad you and Mace are okay.”

Gobble harumphs.

“You too,” she giggles and pets him. She turns to leave.

You feel like you should say something. She’s so calm and prepared. She found Bella, found you, and all you’ve done is mess up her contest dress.

“Wait!”

She turns around quickly, causing a shoulder strap to fall down her slender arm. She gracefully pulls it back up.

“Thanks for taking care of Bella. And coming to get me.”

She smiles and nods. “Of course! It’s like papa says; we’re all on the same team.”

“And I’m sorry. About before. With your dress before the contest.”

She sighs, but keeps her smile on. “It’s fine. I don’t think I was going to win anyway. But I appreciate the thought.” She doesn’t sound insincere, but she does sound distant. You don’t think she holds a grudge or anything, but you don’t think she’s being totally honest about how she feels, either. “Don’t worry about it, Herb. You didn’t do anything wrong. Okay?” She leaves towards the small waterfall upstream.

You, Mace, Gobble, and Bella get nice and clean in the surprisingly not-cold stream. It’s a little weird to be naked in front of your pokemon, but they don’t seem to care one bit. Well, Bella is looking more than you’re comfortable with at first, but she quickly turns her attention to trying to goad Mace into playing.

Mudkip and Boldore watch from the side. Boldore doesn’t seem to want to get anywhere near the water. He and Mace have some sort of conversation.

Mudkip approaches.

“Want to get cle-”

There’s a shriek from upstream! Or was it a laugh? You and all the pokemon turn to face it.

You look to Mace and Boldore. They don’t indicate which they think it was. Maybe they can’t tell on account of the rushing water from over there.

You don’t know what to do. She could be in trouble. Or it could be nothing.

You hop out of the water and grab the towel. Instead of drying off, you wrap it around your waste.

Ow. Ow. Ow. Walking on rocks.

As you get a bit closer, you start to get cold feet. Not literally, of course. They’re sore, not cold. But you’re worried.

“Bella. I need to ask you something.” You whisper. “I need you to go check things out for me, okay?”

Bella listens and nods. There’s a question in that look she’s giving you, too.

“Because if she thinks I’m spying on her naked,” you can’t believe you’re saying this “then she’ll be upset with me.” You look around. “Please?”

Bella has a devious grin, but she runs off. You get as close as you safely can and wait

And wait.

After a few minutes, you start to peer around. Where did she go?

“John!” You turn around and see Valerie standing over you. She’s got a towel wrapped around herself. “I can’t believe you!”

Belladonna is grins from behind her leg and giggles.

Betrayal!

“I swear! I wasn’t trying to look! I heard a scream, so I came over.”

She folders her arms and puts her foot up on a slightly higher rock. You try not to pay attention to how form fitting the towel is or how much leg she’s showing. “You thought I was in danger so you decided to sneak around in the bushes?”

“I didn’t know for sure! And with the raichu and pikachu that attacked me and how Mace and boldore were stuck before, I-I-I.” Your mind is racing. “I was worried. That’s all. Ask my pokemon!”

She looks to Mace and Gobble. Mace emphatically supports you. Gobble is taking it less seriously, but still very much on your side.

“Well. Of course your pokemon would agree.” She glances to Mudkip and Boldore.

Mudkip, looking concerned about being the center of attention, does nod. Boldore shrugs, but also agrees after Mace makes a noise.

Bella snickers.

“Bella!” You shout.

Valerie sees it too. She looks a lot less angry at you. Instead, she’s more confused. “So...you weren’t peeking?”

You put your hands up. “No. I’d never do that to you. Ever. Not in a million years. I-”

“Okay! Okay. You made your point. I believe you.”

“Are you sure? You sound annoyed. I just really want to be really clear that I’m not trying to see your body-”

“I. Get. It.” She inhales. Then she exhales. “But why did Bella act like you were?”

Everyone turns to the grass pokemon. “That’s a good question. Bella. You could have done real damage. You shouldn’t lie. Do you understand why what you did was wrong?”

She doesn’t seem to be taking you too seriously. She examines her petals.

You’re upset, but you’re not really the yelling type. And to be honest, you’ve never really been good at holding a grudge or expressing anger. You feel like Bella is taking advantage of that, though.

Any hints on what Val's feeling here? I can't seem to into empathy right now. Gobble's hinting that she's holding something back here, but is she upset with us? I'm as lost as Herb here.

>>1034544
She could be bewildered by our poorfagness, our zero tact, our obliviousness, harboring a tiny bit of resentment towards the contest, being confused about her sexuality more, or any number of other things.

Chances are it's one of the later two. IMO.

>>1034549
I mean, it seemed to me she was into boys, I don't see how we would stir her uncomfortable homosexual urges, unless she's itching to ask us about them due to our own obvious gayness. Tact part could be it too though.

I hope growing close to Val means examining our own same-sex feelings as well, but I don't expect it.

I think we've solved it boys.

How does Herb look with his shirt off? Is that island magic doing the trick, giving us that cut look? Abs? Pecs? Are we soaking up that tropical sun, or do we have that porcelain look? Chest hair, or smooth? Supernumerary nipples? Gobble, post a reference please.

>>1034586
Laki pointed out a while ago on the beach that we obviously don't get much exercise, but I don't remember her clarifying whether we were just unmuscular or not.
