I got time for you.

[c'mere, let him bury his face into your lap and then he'll just lay his head sideways

you can probably see that he has puffy eyes

he didn't want crys to see him like this but it's gonna be unavoidable if she wants to stay and cheer him up]

[Sore eyes is a new sight on Gold.]

You tell him to go away and that he's a bother, and you're the one crying about it. [Please. At least she's gentle with touches. Although the only touch he's getting is her hand on his shoulder.] Do you want to talk about it?

[She says "do you want to talk about it" but she means "we are going to talk about this".]

We're gonna talk about it anyway.

[can't you at least pet his head or something?]

[No, that would be rewarding.]

We are. [A sigh. Honestly...] You two have been pretty much inseparable since you got together, and you've seemed really happy since then. What's wrong?

... I wanted space, that's all. Got tired of hanging out so much since we've been attached at the lips. And hips. Like you said, inseparable. I need time to myself though, you know?

[groan he's gonna sound miserable in a sec

(drama queen)]

I uh. I might've been a bit harsh towards him. But it doesn't matter now 'cause he took all his clothes and he hasn't come back and I ain't sure if he's gonna wanna come back.

There are better ways to tell him that than saying he's bothering you and for him to go away, you know. But I can't really imagine that'd make him take everything and leave.

[Basically:

What else did you say, Gold.]

How harsh are we talking here?

[he's thinking back on it, okay

let him think]

I called him my problem. And told him to go bother someone else.

[Wow.]

Don't give me that look.

What look?

[you know the look]

[The one that says he knows better, or that he should?]

I'm just surprised you'd call him a problem, considering you were the one who decided to house him. [Oh.] Which is the exact reason why he's going to come back, probably. He doesn't have anywhere else.

[...She would not wish her mom on anyone, so yeah, Gold's place is the only one.]

I know, I know! I'm terrible, awful, horrible boyfriend. No, I'm just a bad friend. Right? What kinda person am I to do that to him? [toss him a pity party]

[No.]

One who isn't going to layabout in his bedroom crying about how terrible he is and who is going to, instead, do something about it.

What can I do? It's not like he's gonna wanna see me again. [huff] ... He said he didn't need me. And that I treated him like dirt. He's too sensitive, you know? And and he said that I was actin' like he was my property! I so wasn't.

[Is this what Johto's greatest hero has been reduced to? A stupid boy with problems?

Well, no. That's what he's always been. Crystal, more than most people, knows that.]

You do get pretty possessive. [Plus, coupled with what she heard happened with Yellow and all...] I'm not surprised you act that way.

[BUT.]

You know it isn't right, right? To treat someone like they're prizes instead of people.

[he does not get

okay so maybe he does so what there's nothing wrong with that]

I'm not... I mean, I didn't mean to treat him like that. I just wanted to shove it in Yellow's face at first that he was on our side now and that we were dating. It's not like I've done it again.

That's because you haven't had anyone else's face to shove it in.

[yeouch]

I've got plenty of people to show him off to.

[Are you serious right now.]

This is what I'm talking about, Gold. This is what Silver's talking about. You show off possessions. Not people.

[... what, a sweet and innocent thing like that?

that's it?]

Seriously? You can show off people. People show off themselves! It's not 'cause they're possessions, it's because they're proud.

[Get off her lap, Gold. She is standing up.]

That's their choice, Gold! It's different than you throwing it into people's faces that you're dating him!

[whoa okay he's sitting up she can see the full extent of his upsetness]

How? I told him he better be smug about it too since I'm happy about havin' him! So he can do it too. Show me off I mean.

[he'd like it if he did]

[That would slow her down if he wasn't being a complete idiot about it.]

Have you never seriously considered the fact that maybe not everyone likes showing off or being shown off? Would you seriously not mind being paraded around or held up when it's convenient for you? That's what it's like!
