[yeah yeah give him your hand]

It's fine, I should've just gone in the first place instead of... You know, treatin' you like you were a kid. Was the ice cream that good?

[because he did kind of do that

sorry]

Yeah. [...] I was starting to feel sick anyway. ...And you were worried.

[But now he gets none of that free ice cream but all of the tummy ache

he is not responding to the kid part though nope]

[he can walk off his tummy ache

or they can just get him something too no problems]

I bet it's gourmet or somethin'. Hey, you know what I can teach you now since you've got pancakes down?

[He'll be okay

maybe]

What?

Waffles. Totally more delicious, in my opinion.

[...Making waffles...

...Ugh no he's way too full for that to sound nice right now

but he'll nod in agreement anyway]

[he's only trying to change topics, that's all

glancing at exbro and feraligatr hmmmmm]

Do you think they'll wanna keep the little guy? I'm pretty sure he belongs to someone - maybe they couldn't take care of them on their own or somethin' like that, or they were lookin' for somethin' to help him - but it's a pretty big city to go lookin' in.

If someone left him on the street, they don't deserve to get him back.

And if they were out lookin' for food or somethin' to keep him warm?

They left him overnight in the rain in a cold alleyway with absolutely nothing.

He easily fits in your jacket.

[He deserves better.]

[there are a million different reasons but gold's not gonna arguin about it because it's true they could've brought themselves to a center with the pokemon and all since it's free to the public]

I'm pretty sure Exbro's gotten too attached to let him go anyway. Surprisingly. I didn't think he'd be much of a papa.

[aibro wants to see him aibro wants to see him too oh oh oh nooo he's so cute

yes yes isn't he just

look at his lil pawwwssss feraligatr he bites just like my toothy buddy here too it's so cute and painful]

Feraligatr seems pretty attached too.

[Just let me know when you need bite breaks okay bro

puppy looks Aibro over momentarily but ultimately wants to lay his head in Exbro's warm fur. If only Exbro wasn't moving, then he'd sleep...]

... So they're just like their trainers? I mean, I guess you'd be a good dad. Unless there was ice cream involved. [he's only teasing honest

yes yes exbro will

oh aibro has an idea

give him to gold gold can put him in his hoodie and then he'll be warm and he can sleep how does that sound]

[Good plan

here Gold hold him in your hoodie]

...I wouldn't make a good dad at all. [What part of him screams good dad material to you, Gold

he won't even live long enough to be a dad anyway so whatever]

[the part that loves his family no matter what and who is exceedingly devoted to doing the right thing even if it hurts

besides he is so gonna live long enough to be a dad gold'll make sure this ain't no tragic romance story--

wait what oh he is being given the puppy

yes okay into the hoodie]

Hey there little guy. [now GOLD would be a good dad uh huh] Maybe I'm just biased towards you, but it ain't like you're gonna be alone in raisin' a kid or anything like that. You'll still have me and Crys when this is all over and far into the future.

[Over. Right.]

I hope so.

[Oooh it's warm here too okay yes he can sleep here

just give him like five minutes to wriggle around and explore]

[squirmy little guy go on he's gotcha he's gotcha aibro wants to join him though can he]

Guaranteed. [he's not gonna lose him or crys] I mean, we three've got this. We'll be fine. And then... You know, things. We'll figure it out as we go.

[...Yeah. Come on, he's gotta be more positive than that.

puppy is fine with compaaaatail

tail

biting tail]

[yeowch no no no ah ah ah aibro is not okay with this not at all he is climbing on gold's face and trying to get onto his head nope nope ow ow--]

Whoa, ow, hey! You sure are energetic Aibro.

[ow yeah sure um

can he

can he have his tail back puppy--]

[Chew chew chew chew chew

are you okay over there Gold and Aibro]

[aibro is not okay there is a puppy chewing on his tail and it huuuuurrts no sorry puppy he is attempting to tug it away nOW OW NO BAD IDEAAAAAA]

Hey, hold Aibro for me. [he's gonna get puppy off why don't you chew on.... oh, you can have his fingers]

[Fingers?

Oh he can suckle on those yes

fingers...

come here Aibro Silver's got you]

He's pretty feisty, isn't he?

[just what gold was hoping he'd do

aibro is so thankful for gold's ~~motherly instincts~~ sacrifice hi silver his tail hurts]

Yeah. [gold is pretty content looking right now though even if he just lost a hand to keeping a lil growlithe from exploring with his teeth] He ain't weaned yet either, you know. But he sure is gettin' there with those teeth of his. We might be able to mix milk and some meat and get him to eat that when we get home.

[Motherly instincts was right

pat pat here you want to hop in his clothes instead

they are bite free]

Sounds like a plan. Hopefully he'll feel better by the time we get there.

[yes

yes thank you]

As long as Exbro and Feraligatr are his parents, he'll be fine. Probably. Protected, anyway. And warm.
