[feistytrader]

More or less.

[uncouthhatcher]

And the me you spent like, five years with, is there still.

[feistytrader]

Maybe, maybe not. I got sent back and forth a couple times and forgot about everything at home. I'm not sure why I remember everything right now.

[So it's possible that he just... forgot. ...Stopped existing...? ...He doesn't want to think about this.]

[uncouthhatcher]

Then that guy and Crys're probably staying together now. At least they ain't gonna be alone.

[But Chobo won't see her parents again, or her siblings for that matter. Gold lets the Scyther finish eating before he starts to clean up the eggshell, petting the chocobo softly.]

Guess it's just you and me then, Chobo. You're my proof. I'm sure everyone's alright. [To Silver:] At yours, too. I mean, you guys've been dealing with stuff for so long, it's probably just any other Tuesday to you.

[feistytrader]

[...Sure is nice turning these eggs, huh. Yeah. Real nice...]

[uncouthhatcher]

[He said something wrong, probably, but he's got work to do before he can say anything. The worlds are completely different. One full of touchy feely, the other pretty much the opposite.

Gold can't even begin to imagine what a Tuesday there was like. His was the same old same old: Wake up (without Silver), make breakfast, pop in to say hi to Crys, go out for a walk with Chobo and whoever else wanted to come along (Silver included), get lunch, practice riding on Chobo, do whatever, make dinner, hang out, go to sleep. Rinse and repeat.

So once the Scyther's settled in with his parents outside to play and the rest of the eggs are checked, he'll clap his hand on Silver's shoulder. That always helped, right?]

You hungry or anything like that? We could go to Goldenrod or I'll just fix something right up for us.

[feistytrader]

[...That helps. That helps a lot.

But more importantly, the topic change helps.] That's right. We can't get free food. [Uh... It's up to Gold. It's not like he has any money...]

[uncouthhatcher]

Aw, nah, it can be free. I learned a thing or two back in the city.

[You were a terrible influence and his second biggest crush.

[feistytrader]

[No way. He taught him to steal?

Yes way.]

Best news I've heard all day. Goldenrod it is.

[uncouthhatcher]

[Well, he's not too good at it, but hey! He's conned a conman before! Can't be too hard!

And his partner of choice is Pibu. Weavile's good and all for stealing and getting out quick, but Gold's gonna appeal to the heart of the vendors with this little guy.]

I didn't get much practice in 'cause I had money to spare, even with Chobo's appetite and all, but I trust you've got my back if things go sour.

[Chobo plucks a few hairs from Gold's head (Ow!!!) for his comment, then goes back to sitting with Sunbo and talking to her. Girls gotta stick together.]

[feistytrader]

Yeah. We'll all get your back. [In fact, he's sending Weavile off to go start marking trees right now. Gotta get the gang ready and all.] Just show us what you can do.
