❀1 [November 1st] Text

[It took Celebi two weeks to realize she had never done an introduction to the rest of the school after sweet dance parties. Whoops! Well, no big deal. She just went backwards a bit to rectify the situation. Yeah! So here we are with a text entry. November 1st. Right on time. Excellent.]

Oooo! I was always really curious about what it was like over here, and now I know! Or I'm going to know! This is very very exciting!! Hello! I'm a transfer from Square-Enix academy! It doesn't seem like a whole lot of us have come over here, huh? I wonder why! It seems like a fun place! That was a super neat party you guys had, and all the egg decorations are kind of exotic I guess??

What should I be looking forward to here? Anything special? I guess dress up parties aren't the norm but is there anything else? Do you have any warnings for me? Are we allowed to use the green house? I really hope so, cause it looks reaaaally nice in there. Nice and warm. Everything looks so snug~!

Oh, silly me! I almost forgot. You can call me Evliya :3

[The smoothest gentleman.

The state of the room was more or less completely disregarded. Who cared about crumbs, Celebi didn't care about crumbs. What Celebi cared about were those absolutely adorable bonsais and hello, monster tulips, who were you? The pixie happily skipped across the room wreckage to the Venusaur's side of the room, bouncing from one direction to the next.]

Hello..! And you too! And you! Gosh you had a growth spurt...!

[She's just going to go ahead and start touching all your plants ok.]

Ooh, he's done a fabulous job with you, hasn't he?

[Vinnie's just leaning against the wall, looking as tiny as he possibly could as he watched Celebi fawn over his plants in abject silence. Even though he was standing completely still, he could feel his heart beating against his chest as though it were a caged beast.

He felt like a nervous child in front of her. And if he wasn't spoken to, then he was just going to stay quiet and redfaced until he was.

Still... there was a tiny part of him that fluttered with joy at the indirect compliment. And, to his shame, he couldn't shut it up when it yearned for more praise. What the hell was wrong with him right now? What was this?]

[Really these tulips were a marvel. They were much larger than they should have been and... suddenly there was a thought about mistletoes and getting stuck underneath them. Oho. That certainly was interesting.

Her fingers danced over the tops of the smaller bonsais, quietly taking in all they might have had to say to her and humming a little tune to herself as she went. It seemed as though she was very much lost in her own little world, and that was probably actually true.

At least until she popped up near Vinnie's shoulder, smiling over at him.]

They all seem very happy!

[He nearly jumped oh god. Approval. From Celebi.

WHAT WERE THESE FEELINGS.

He was relieved and joyful. Terrified. Warm and safe. About to break down. Comforted. Ashamed.

And very, very confused.]

...Uh. Thanks.

Hee hee.

[The state the grass type was in wasn't entirely lost on her. Part of it, anyway. Celebi gave his arm a light, comforting pat and rest her head there. Her voice took on a softer note for a moment, taking away from the childish sound it had been until that point.]

It's okay to just be you, ok? Just to get that out of the way early...

[The maelstrom of contradictory feelings simmered down into a quiet sort of resignation to her presence. He was still nervous, definitely, but unprotesting. Something about the way her head lay against his arm... calmed him.

Awkwardly, his gaze shied away from Celebi and shuffled about the opposite corner of his eye, wandering from ceiling to floor. From the way he spoke, Vinnie sounded 90% sure he was going to disappoint her.]

You sure 'bout that?

[It was pretty much what she thought was going on. She gave a nod, her cheek brushing against him so he could feel the response as much as he could hear it.]

Yes! I'm very sure. If you're not, who will? You're the only one that can be you, and I'm the only one that can be me... so I'll just be me too.

[If anyone was going to disappoint anyone, it wasn't going to be the Venusaur. The Celebi on the other hand... She had enough time to accept that she wasn't who people made her out to be.]

[Vinnie relaxed a touch more. It was nice to hear the words, the sentiment, even if he still wasn't completely comfortable with himself yet. It wasn't fair to project all those silly ideas he had on her, not when she was standing right in front of him.

Summoning up a fond, albeit slightly self-deprecating smirk, the Venusaur gave a little snort.]

Heh. Fair enough.

[Well, now that a bit of pressure had been lifted off his heart, he slipped and let out another embarrassed chuckle despite himself. Awkwardly, he couldn't help but confess.] Y'know, when I was a kid, I always wanted t'meet you...

[There, he seemed to be getting a bit better. She smiled again, looking up at him.]

Did you...? I'm sorry to keep you waiting then.

[His face turned a little redder, but at least he was smiling now. It was an embarrassed, but sincere kind of smile.]

Don't be, it was... one of those really stupid kid ideas.

[Good, good. She laughed.]

But those are usually the most earnest ones!

Phffft. Well I'm not tellin' you what it was.

You can do the guessin' this time.

[Revenge!]

Oh....! Sneaky sneaky!

Why would a little saur want to meet meee.... [There's some legit thinky faces going on over here. Hit by a guessing game... Maaaan.]

You didn't give me any hints, so you don't get any.

[Revengeance! Okay maybe he was teasing her a bit. Turnabout was fair game.]

Fair enough, heehee. Though really, the limited options of grass types is a lot different from the limitless choices of a child's mind.

[She let go of him, hovering off to ponder that ponder.]

That's the fun part though! You must have heard a story. What sort was it?

... Unless that counts as a hint.

Nothin' that everyone else hasn't heard already.

[You know, forest spirit, time travel, that stuff. Vinnie was being very tight-lipped on hints. Mostly because he totally really didn't want her to know. So there.

He watched her, hovering about. For some reason it felt important to him to remember the way she fluttered. It felt like she should already know everything about him, and he was just hiding the inevitable.]

Mhmm.

[Those were the sorts she knew fairly well. A lot of them weren't things she could really agree with, but stories were what they were. It was interesting to hear what people came up with to explain things. As much as she didn't like the implications they made about her, she did like listening to them.

For the moment (and just for the moment), he was brand new. She knew nothing of this Venusaur's life, but the more he intrigued her the more it was cemented that she was going to find out about him. And goodness, he was intriguing. There was a lot going on there, she could tell.

So she stared at the monster tulips again as if they would give her an answer. And she stared. And she stared some more. Oh, she spaced out for a minute there, uh.]

[Huff. Well, stare at his tulips all you wanted, they weren't going to tell you anything. Vinnie crossed his arms, trying to ignore the sinking feeling in his stomach.

She'd been spaced out for a while now. A minute. Two minutes. More. That's... a bit odd. And pretty awkward, too, considering the two of them where just standing about his room in silence. Shifting his weight from one foot to the other, he glanced about the room once, then again... stared at the floor. Who was going to be the first one to break the silence?

Was this just what Celebi did? Was something actually wrong?

He wasn't yet confident enough to reach out to touch her shoulder, but hesitantly, Vinnie took a step forward, towards her.]

Are you... okay?

[It was another moment or two before Celebi suddenly blinked and gave a rousing little shake. She gave a quick turn, bright eyed and aware as she looked over at him.]

Yes?

[Yeah this was a common occurrence to get used to.]

[Blink. Vinnie retracted back a step. Guess that was normal for her, then.

Welcome back, Celebi. That little Bulbasaur grew up and got cynical. He furrowed his brows, half in worry and half in discomfort.]

Nevermind. Y'just went... [Pause. He was being stupid.] Nevermind.

[Alas, the tragedy of age. Yet age had made his sweetness more profound. He was one and the same, even if they weren't snuggled up under the sun anymore.]

No, go ahead!

[She scooted back over to him, boldly taking his hands in hers. The pixie wore a soft smile, a bit different from the playful ones she had been sporting earlier.]

Did I bother you? I'm sorry. [A rare apology.] It happens sometimes.

[More blinking on Vinnie's part. She seemed a little different, suddenly... or perhaps it was that her demeanor had changed and he couldn't account for why.

His hands in hers. It felt like it should've been a profound moment, but he simply didn't know what to do with it.]

Nah, you were just spacin' out...

[She nodded.] Mmhm. Someone was saying hello in Ilex.

[Actually true! It wasn't as endearing as a trip to an island was in the slightest, but it had been happening. Celebi hadn't found that visit nearly as interesting as this one though. She admired the juxtaposition of their hands for a moment. They were opposites in nearly every way, but they still fit quite nicely.]

Have you ever been there?

[Oh. She actually did sense people in Ilex. Vinnie had always thought that wasn't possible. After all, the gods didn't have time to listen to everyone who had something to ask of them. Prayers weren't always heard. Wishes weren't granted. And bad things happened to everyone, regardless whether they were good or evil.]

Once. When Red was doin' the Johto League.

[It was arguable over which Celebi was the main Celebi: the one snoozing in her little forest box or the one slipping her smaller fingers through broad ones just to see how it looked. Nothing happened in Ilex without her knowing, that's just how it was. So she looked a bit thoughtful for a second, trying to sort through the images of people that had passed through.

It'd be easier if she had tried to commit more of them to memory.]

And Red is... Your trainer then? That's what those leaguey things are for I think...
