[Normally, Gold's content to just go day-by-day in Luceti, not entirely too concerned about the state of affairs back home. After all, as far as he's aware, everything should be perfectly fine and normal at home. He even went so far as to set his Pokégear's time and date to Luceti time instead of Earth time.

Of course, while it's normally a benefit, this time it works against him. His Pokegear ever-so-lovingly reminded him today was Mother's Day.

...So he needs a reminder of when Mother's Day is, okay. So sue him. Anyway, he's reminded of his mom now. Kid misses her, of course. He's not exactly ready to leave her behind just yet, and being away from home for two years... Well, it makes you homesick.

Instead of getting depressed over it, though, he instead opts to pose a question to Luceti.]

So here's a little survey. Dunno what it's like in your world, but according to my Pokégear on this day in my world, it's a little holiday called "Mother's Day". It's pretty self-explanatory. It's a day we celebrate moms.

So answer this: What are your moms like? Here, I'll even kick things off to get started. My mom's pretty much the best mom anyone could ask for. She raised me with all her love, and I wouldn't trade her for any other mom in the world.

And her burgers are to die for. Now it's your turn. Shoot.

[...] I just hope I do figure it out back home.

[Oh, geez... Now Silver's sad. Silver's not supposed to be sad. He's supposed to be many things; serious, angry, tsun... But not sad.]

...You'll figure it out sooner or later, even if I have to keep on you about it.

Gold, it took me a year of us living under the same roof to figure this out. At home I usually show up once in a while for a few days, tops.

I'm going to make myself miserable trying to get a family that won't come close to the one I've already got. I'm gonna keep doing this for a long time. [And there's absolutely nothing he can do about it.]

So what? Sooner or later, it's gonna hit you.

Tell me, Silver. How'd you feel after you spent that week at my house?

Confused.

Confused?

Touched, but mostly just confused. I thought I'd be completely relieved to just leave, but I wasn't.

Edited 2012-05-31 01:59 (UTC)

Do you know why you felt that way?

I do now. [...Mostly. Kind of. Maybe? Probably.]

Edited 2012-06-01 00:17 (UTC)

Well, that's a feeling you're always gonna have. It's a feeling you had before you got here, and it's one you'll have when you go back.

So... I think you'll figure it out.

'Sides, that doesn't mean there's any harm in chasin' after your old man. He's your family too, y'know. Just remember you don't always have to go things alone.

I don't wanna drag other people into my messes. [Dad or family or not, that's still a mess.

Yet the next part is said a little more lightly. A little more fondly.] Not that that's ever stopped you.

[Gold can hear the difference in his tone. Fondness, as opposed to the scathing indifference he might usually say something like that in.

Gold just grins.]

Heh. You're damn right it doesn't.

Stupid.

[...Wait a minute-] Hey. This wasn't supposed to be about me. [We're not done here.]

Too late. Mission accomplished. [You just got served.]

[...Just for that, he's snatching away another slice of your pizza.]

[Rude.

Whatever Gold's just going to finish it off, then. No more for you, Silver.]

[Yeah fine whatever.

...Pause.] We need to have another eating contest, by the way. [Eventually. ...He'll lose horribly, but maybe he'll lose marginally less horribly than last time. ...No seriously Silver what the hell are you thinking?]

Edited 2012-06-04 02:03 (UTC)

...You had a first-hand experience with my body, and you ask for an eating contest. [That is said in a "what the hell are you thinking, Silver." tone.]

Twice. [Don't ask Silver to explain his logic. Even Silver doesn't get Silver logic.]

You know you'll lose, right?

...Yeah, probably.

Edited 2012-06-06 06:19 (UTC)

...Alright, whatever.

...We gotta make sure Crys isn't around for it, though.

That's a given, dude.

Just making sure.
