[ behold, Goldenrod. your new campeador has arrived! Tavros has been on the fly-or, uh, the bull ride-for weeks, with the express purpose of hastening to Goldenrod. of course, the reason this took almost a month and not, y'know, a week or two, is because he got lost. a lot. lost, and held up by wild Pokemon that he had to direct his amazing

[so he was out buying things and wasn't... really expecting to run into a passed out boy and his bull... huh....]

Uhh??

[action]

[conflictedrebel]

You're... [he blinks and then all the sense was made. he vaguely remembered someone talking about ponies over the gear once-- so... maybe he was something like that?

ANYWAYS-- that's not really the important thing! the only thing that's able to take his mind off of Tav being all "human now" is how fast that kid chugged the water.] Right-- that's why we need to keep hydrated kid. [he pauses.] Have you eaten anything recently? Also-- when was the last time you slept?

[action]

[bullieve]

[ a pony is actually not too far from fitting. sort of. a little. maybe. ]

Eaten, yes, sort of. Sort of, by which I mean, I had some of those berries, at a time that wasn't that long ago. Yesterday, I think. And sleep, that sort of happened just now, in a way.

[action]

[conflictedrebel]

[possiblyyyy.]

You--uhh... you do know that those berries are for your pokémon right? Man just-- hold up a minute. [BRB DIGGING IN HIS BAG FOR THAT GRANOLA BAR HE KNEW WAS IN THERE.] Here. It isn't much, but it's better than those berries.

[action]

[bullieve]

[ he starts to reply, but then shuts his mouth, blinking slowly once or twice. still a bit unfocused, but that water certainly helped. ]

Are you sure this is okay for me to have? You're really, uhh, giving me a lot of things.

[action]

[conflictedrebel]

It's fine. I've got more back home.

[action]

[bullieve]

[ takes a moment to consider, then musters up a shaky smile as he takes the granola bar and starts to unwrap it. ]

Okay, well, if you're sure that it's okay, then I'll have it. And also, thank you, for the things that you were giving me in multitude, like I said, just now.

[action]

[conflictedrebel]

[he nods and smiles-- oh wait... gotta be stern with him!!] Just make sure this doesn't happen again, okay? [he pauses.] Can you stand? You might wanna get your trusty...steed to the pokécenter sometime soon. [that... and sitting on that ground... not good, not good. B(]

[action]

[bullieve]

[ he looks more scolded by being asked if he can stand than he does by the first part, staring down at the granola bar in his hand, and then sideways at Rufio, who, despite still being exhausted, is watching this exchange with the most fiercely intense glare. ]

I think you're right about, uhh, the part with Rufio needing to receive treatment, definitely, but, then, the part about standing, that's... I can't really do it.

[action]

[conflictedrebel]

[his brows raise. HOW LONG HAS THIS KID BEEN TRAVELING LKSDFJALKG;WHEAKFJ.] You can't... do it? What is that supposed to mean?

[action]

[bullieve]

[ sigh, he hates explaining this 8( ]

Well, uhh, the thing is, is that there was an incident at a previous time, as in, before I came here, to Johto, I mean. Uhh, but anyway, during that point that I just mentioned, my legs were made to not work anymore, effectively. So that's why I can't do the standing thing.

[action]

[conflictedrebel]

[his expression softens some as he listens to Tavros' story. So he's... paraplegic... With that Kanji gets down onto his knees.] You've got upper body strength right?

[action]

[bullieve]

Huh? I guess so, sort of. A little.

[ oh, don't be modest, Tavros. of course he does! with all the lifting himself up and dragging himself around he has to do? you betcha. ]

[action]

[conflictedrebel]

Awesome! I'm gonna give you a piggy back ride to the center. If-- that's okay with you...

[there's also the other way-- but this way seems more manly, sob.]

[action]

[bullieve]

Oh, you don't have to do that, I can, uhh...

[ no, he can't ride on Rufio... or his other Pokemon, either. pauses. ]

Well, instead of burdening you with, uh, with me, as it were, I could probably crawl there, that's something that I do all the time.

[action]

[conflictedrebel]

Nope. Not gonna let that happen. 'sides I'm pretty sure your little friend'll try to ram me for walking away. That and I'm pretty sure it'd take you a while to find the center anyways. I've been in town for a while, so I can get you and your pokémon there quickly. [he pauses.] Which reminds me-- you have this things pokéball right?
