[GUESS WHO. This face might be vaguely familiar, barring the new hairstyle, or it might not. Either way, it sure looks happy to be here.]
Oh, finally, I think it's working! Um... hello! I'm back. In case you don't know me or maybe just forgot, my name is Kieran, and I'm a child of the forest. I'm spending a year away from the herd in order to gather knowledge... a year that's almost over, actually. Winter's only a season away, isn't it?
But I guess I'm getting ahead of myself! Each season has its turn, so I guess I'd better talk about autumn instead. You don't mind, do you?
[Not even waiting for the magical spirit box picture thingy to respond. Just plowing on ahead. SEASONS ARE A REALLY BIG DEAL FOR A SAWSBUCK.]
Each and every person is attuned to a season of the year. That's what we Sawsbucks believe. Autumn might be the time of year when our leaves fade away and our antlers drift into dormancy, but it's also the season when our foliage is the color of our blood -- it's not a time of resignation, it's a burningly, achingly alive season! The autumn-hearted are people who possess fiery ambition. They have a depth of emotion that not many others can claim; when something seizes their heart, it's seized completely and utterly. Their passion can inspire the complacent and meek: the autumn-hearted are the bringers of action, powerful agents of change with endless nerve in the face of adversity. I didn't meet many autumn-hearted spirits last time I was here, but I'm certain there must be some of you out there!
Ah, and just between us, spirit box... they say that the autumn-hearted make the best lovers. I guess it only makes sense: for us, autumn is also the season of love. It's something I'm kind of nervous about! Last year, I was still a Deerling, so this is going to be my first rut. I don't know who I'm going to try to fight for yet... actually, I'm not sure how I'm even supposed to win anyone over. So many of the spirits here have no antlers, so I guess jousting is out, huh?
...Well, as long as I'm in the realm of the gods, I might as well do it however the spirits do it, right? I am here to learn, aren't I?

Yeah. It'll be fine! I mean, I'm still figuring out this Ivysaur thing, so sometimes it can definitely take a little while.
no subject
[A thought that felt a little familiar. Hadn't he dreamed something like this? Oh, well. Life was funny like that.]
It won't be so bad to linger here a while longer, anyway. We're in very good company, aren't we?
no subject
... Thank you.
And I'd like to think so! It'd be a shame to see you leave so soon.
no subject
[IDEA. He claps his hands together (one of those human gestures he learned here, as a matter of fact -- it means something exciting, he's pretty sure, so it must be appropriate!)]
I could show you some of my favourite places, if you wanted. That'd make it easier to meet even if we part ways, wouldn't it?
no subject
And this was something that was quite exciting. Appropriate response was quite appropriate! Bulba leaned forward a little in his seat with an eager curiousness in his eyes.]
Ohh, yes, please do. I'd really like that a lot, actually.
no subject
Wonderful! We'd better do it sooner rather than later, though. It's only going to get colder, and it's a bit of a long walk to reach the parts of the forest that I know best.
i am in bed and turning off the light
Yeah, it'd be good to go fairly soon... I'm up for pretty much whenever you'd like to go though!
