You've reached Lust. I'm not available at the moment, please leave a message.

If it's important enough, I'll get back to you.

I heard that Boone was gone. I'm sorry, he had a lot of good things to say about you.

I got my Tentacrool back, and she had a pretty big crush on a Pokemon of his named Pointy. I know it was his favorite, so you might want to keep it. But if he's with you and you would be willing to spare him, I think it'd make her happy to be with him again.

[Yes, he's worried about his tentacle monster's broken heart, too.]

You must be Mr. Hank. Thank you. He was a very good man and he is greatly missed.

Yes, I know about your Pokemon. I'd never be one to stand between two beings that wish to be together. I have others to remember Craig by. Are you near to Goldenrod?

[sociallychallenged]

We'll be going home soon. I hope. I get sick of the hotel rooms real quick.

We're in Olivine for the time being.

He was a good guy. [Even if Hank only really knew him as a drinking buddy.]I hate talking about people like they're dead, though. This place fucks us up sometimes. I mean, I came back. [And knowing he didn't remember anything hurts, strangely.]

[a_sin_for_him]

I have known very few who have returned, and I've lived in this world for half a decade now, perhaps more.

It's painful to hold on to that hope. Life...stops. It's easiest for me to quantify it as a death of sorts. For closure's sake.

[sociallychallenged]

I get that. I guess I've been pretty shit at closure. Maybe it'll get easier over time.

[He doubts it. He figures he'll always be bad at it, with the way he clings to things.]

At least these two idiot poison pokemon will still be here, and she'll be able to fucking hug him instead of me because she keeps making me nauseous when she's excited. Hell of a way to say you're happy to see your boyfriend.

[a_sin_for_him]

It doesn't.

Yes, they're exceptionally lucky creatures. Would it help, do you think, to let them see one another over the gears?

I like how my brain just aggressively wants to mix Tentacruel and Tentacool and is ruining my life

[He thinks of Cole again. If he had his picture, he would have pulled it out. If he had his picture, he'd probably try to hide from Connor he was even looking at it.]

[But yeah, that lovesick pair.]

Might do them some good.

[And then he switches to video, taking the gear to look at a big metal tub of water with a grumpy looking Tentacruel in it. She's just sulking at the moment, or it could just be that resting Tentacruel bitchface.]

I do the same thing

[a_sin_for_him]

Give me a moment.

[Lust is gone for a few moments, as it turns out, but when she returns she flips her own gear to video as well. She had to go outside to set this little video date up, but there's a familiar scorpion Pokemon on screen when it flips on.]

There we are.

[sociallychallenged]

Hey there, Blubber look who it is- Oh fuck!

[The change of his voice is instantaneous as the Tentacruel can be seen reaching for the Pokegear and jamming one of her big eyes up against it. Her cooing comes in the form of menacing CRUELs, but it is cooing. She's delighted to see him, even if Hank has vacated to the side (his Hank-shadow betrays him) so he's not going to get sick from her tentacle hugs.]
