... you know what? I'll sign it to you. Gimme a second. I just got home, but I need to prop the gear up somewhere.
A minute or two later, Tyler will get a video call and when he answers it, he'll see that Steven in the kitchen of Jack's house.
Okay. So. This giant man in the park on the way home asks me for food and something to drink. You know I always keep snacks in my briefcase so I give him water and a granola bar. He gives me a banana from his tropius. I don't know why he didn't just eat the banana. We get to talking. For reasons that aren't important I offer to buy him a magnet train pass so he can go to Saffron and try to get work with Silph Co.
He mentions that Solus is his BFF. I react how you'd expect. He asks if he needs to mediate things between us. I told him that it wouldn't work unless it was to get Solus to leave us alone for good and told him that he'd been stalking and harassing us and I had to get physical once to make him leave us alone.
He then called me on throwing Solus down the stairs. Which. Threw me for a fucking loop. And I said I was only going to shove past him but he said something creepy about you, which he did. And then he scolded me for doing it and asked how I'd have felt if Solus died and I said 'very stupid' even though the real answer was 'thoroughly satisfied' and then that fucking almost-Lord hugged me. Steven's hand movements have gone all stuttery. He's obviously upset. And I let him because— fuck, I don't know. And then he said you and I need to go to therapy.
Steven's disgust with that idea is obvious in his expression.
Which is just. No. Therapy doesn't work unless you're honest with them and I can't be when I'm a fucking Pokemon mobster. Not to mention, you know, the rest of it.
