BE-18 - An Ivysaur besteststarter January 20 2011, 23:32:09 UTC

((He might be lacking in a room mate again for the duration of this thread. He'll probably be super mopey until whenever it is Char gets back, and sometimes you might find Kirby in there. When he's not, the door is open a bit so anybody can come in yeaaaah ~o~

BUT IF HE DOES GET A ROOMIE LET'S MAKE ALL THE SHENANIGANS *o*))

[[And from the room of the blue blur, Gideon comes across this one... Oh hello, its a Bulba and he looks doopy, like sad... He might come back and say hi or something, not now because he would get rather...

Adamant about him popping out of nowhere...

woop, hes gone]

Goodness, this seems like deja-vu - this time, in the early afternoon. While Bulba's door was ajar just enough, there was a Venusaur wandering past his dorm. He might've had a slight limp.

He debated for a good while outside in the hall, just out of view. Should he? Maybe he should. At least he should do something before people starting thinking he was some creeper.

Once again, Vinnie simply went and stuck his head through the door. This time though, there was much more trepidation in his voice when he spoke.

"...Uh. Hey."

besteststarter January 21 2011, 08:13:58 UTC

Deja-vu indeed. Bulba had the appearance of reading again, though this time he was sprawled on his bed with the book spread in front of him. The words on the pages weren't really coming across as words though. Just strange, alien text that was taking him a few tries to actually make sense of.

He thought he heard someone in the hall, but his first thought that it was probably just Kirby sneaking in. His surprise was very evident on his face when he looked up to find a very different sort of pink guy poking his head through the doorway.

"...Hey?"

punchtheflowers January 21 2011, 08:39:22 UTC

Sorry to disappoint. Vinnie looked pretty hesitant to say anything at first, very much unlike his usual self. He was in the realm somewhere between embarrassment and guilt, that not doing a good job of hiding it.

"Yeah um." A great internal debate was raging right now, whether he should step inside or just leave. Erika, Erika... Her words were echoing in his head, gently urging him on.

"Can I ask you something? Or ask something on you. I mean, of you." Fuck, how did talking work again. "Shit! Can I just come in?"

besteststarter January 21 2011, 08:51:18 UTC

Bulba's brows were subtly knitting together as he to make sense out of what Vinnie was making attempts at saying. It was working out about as well as reading his book had been. Something was definitely not quite right with the saur, but Bulba couldn't comment on that much. There was definitely something not quite right with himself at the moment either. "Uh..."

He took a quick, mostly unnecessary survey of the room. Vinnie was already looking at it so it didn't really matter how empty and vacant it was or where various potted plants were at. He shrugged, pushing himself up to a sitting position. "Go ahead?"

punchtheflowers January 21 2011, 09:16:10 UTC

Vinnie quickly shut up and let himself in. Perhaps it was a premonitory feeling he was getting right now, but he had doubts that this affair was going to work, at all, on any level. All the same, he lugged himself over the the opposing desk - formerly Blast's, he supposed - and pulled up a seat.

The other side of the room was really quite desolate-looking, wasn't it. Almost like no one had ever been here at all. He glanced awkwardly at his surroundings, taking in Bulba's berry bots, the well-being of Amelia, the sweaters--

No, no okay he was getting distracted. Breathe, be serious. Words tumbled about in his head, some of them his, some of them Erika's, and some of them he just had no idea. "Okay. Uh. I'm not really sure where to start.

"How good are you with flowers?"

besteststarter January 21 2011, 09:35:17 UTC

The younger pokemon was watching him intently, trying to make heads or tails about what this odd visit was going to consist of. He couldn't really thinking of anything Vinnie would want or need to ask him of all people about, serious or not. Curiosity getting the better of him, he was starting to slightly lean forward as Vinnie hemmed and hawwed. When the first question left his mouth, Bulba just sort of... stared.

Was he for real.

Bulba pursed his lips together for a moment, searching for the right way to ask if Vinnie was off his rocker or not. There was a big yellow blossom growing out of his back most of the time, if Vinnie hadn't noticed. "Er..." There was probably more to that question that made it sound less ridiculous. He was hoping there was more to that question that made it sound less ridiculous.

"Just to clarify, what kind of flowers are we talking about?"

punchtheflowers January 21 2011, 11:03:30 UTC

Oh god. Vinnie's face met palm immediately as he realized how inane a question that had been. Especially directed towards another Grass type, especially directed at another Grass type in the same goddamn line as him. The Venusaur could feel his eloquence draining by the second.

Let's try this again, maybe with, uh... an example. Vinnie was gesturing as he spoke, as though somehow his hand motions would fill in the spots where he was too overcome by awkward to say the proper thing.

"Okayokayokay, remember that thing a while ago where we, uh..." Vague hand gesture. "At the Garden and stuff. And there were..." Wiggly fingers. "...all over the place, and flowers were blooming even though it was late on autumn already.

"Have you ever..." Hesitant hands. "...Like that?"

besteststarter January 21 2011, 11:20:01 UTC

Bulba was making small circles with his head, very similar to a cat, as he watched Vinnie's hands in action as they tried to tell the half of the story his voice wasn't. Okay. Alright. Playing madlibs with the explanation. Inserting all manners of verbs and nouns in there. While he wasn't positive, Bulba thought he got a pretty good idea of what Vinnie was attempting to convey.

He ventured a guess. "Have I ever made stuff grow like that?" The Ivysaur was becoming really confused about why it was so hard to breach that topic, and didn't make any effort in hiding that from his face. Vinnie what was up with you.

"Yes? Well, not quite like that..."

punchtheflowers January 21 2011, 11:26:40 UTC

Yeah, Bulba was starting to think he was a gibbering idiot. He wouldn't be all wrong but... fuck this shit, goddamn. This was stupid! Why was he hopping around the issue?! Just...!

Enough of this, when in doubt just be bold. Whatever he was suppressing inside him, Vinnie just blurted out, finally, in one easy-to-understand sentence: "Erika told me you might be able to help me get better with plant growing powers because if my leaves don't grow back I'm fucked."

There we go.

besteststarter January 21 2011, 11:39:17 UTC

"Wait. Wait, wait, wait." Bulba was holding out a hand to emphasize how much he wanted Vinnie to hold up about this. He was still looking super confused, but it had instantly shifted from a "Vinnie what the hell are you trying to say" kind of confused to a "what kind of surprise did you just drop on me" sort. There was a creeping feeling of alarm sneaking up on him, but he hadn't quite realized it was building yet.

"What... do you mean if your leaves don't grow back?"

As far as Bulba was concerned, Vinnie had just gotten pretty jacked up in some manner. He'd never gotten all the full details, and never asked since it really wasn't any of his business.

punchtheflowers January 21 2011, 11:59:50 UTC

Vinnie blinked as he was forced to mentally rewind on exactly what he said back there. His time in the hospital had become something of a blur - just one big mess of guilt and shame and hurt and long, dull stretches of despair, punctuated by sick. It was hard to remember who knew what. There were a lot of visitors.

It was a strange realization that Bulba hadn't actually been there the entire time. He was just such a constant presence in the room across from theirs that it was easy to forget that Char was actually hospitalized a few days after them. Vinnie had already taken to stubbornly keeping in human form by then, so it was very possible that Bulba had simply never seen the full extent of his injuries.

He took a deep breath. "Right, well... back in that fight. That... big guy ripped off two of my leaves. Then there was uh... amputating, and now..."

Weak gesture and a shrug. Vinnie had been growing quieter as he talked, a tone of matter-of-fact defeat in him. He stared at the ground.

"Yeah, so now I don't got'em anymore."

besteststarter January 21 2011, 12:55:53 UTC

That was certainly a lot of something to take in at once ( ... )

punchtheflowers January 21 2011, 13:16:07 UTC

Immediately Vinnie was starting to regret this. That look on Bulba's face... this wasn't something he wanted to cause. Extra grief for the kid? What right did he have, just walking in and asking so much out of him. The guy was still an Ivysaur, for god's sake - how much could he really expect to do?

It was an unreasonable request. He should've just kept his stupid mouth shut and been patient. Vinnie leaned backwards into the chair with a small groan, crossed his arms.

"Unnhg... Well she said there was a chance. It's probably a dumb idea, I mean... You really don't have to. I should wait for spring to see what happens, right? God, I fuckin' suck at that. I need to stop getting in fights."

He was still getting into fights. Sure, he wasn't missing half the skin from the back anymore, but Vinnie still had the constitution of someone who had just been to the blood bank with a generous donation.

besteststarter January 21 2011, 13:36:56 UTC

Yeah he had noticed that limp when you came in, man.

"You and Char both," Bulba muttered. His frown deepened as his thoughts flicked to the Charizard, but he quickly tried to push them away as much as possible. Now wasn't the time to brood on that again. He'd done enough of that already, hadn't he? Apparently not. "But that'd be a good start, yeah."

He sighed. "I said I could try, so if you want me to I can. I just... I'm not worried about fiddling with someone's whole life when I'm asking tomatoes to grow, you know?" Well, okay, technically he was but not in the same kind of fashion all right.
