      “--haven’t noticed what?” Kids with an interest? Uh-oh, this doesn’t sound good. Not good at all. “I think I get what you’re tryin’ to get at here but what I don’t get is why you need my help! You need me to talk to them or somethin’, Volk? Sure, I could do that for you--but wouldn’t it be a lot better if you did it? You’ve just gotta be upfront about it, Volk! There’s no point in beatin’ around the bush here---you don’t want these kids to get any ideas, y’know?”
Tumblr media
‘ i guess you haven’t noticed, huh. ’ poor guy. ‘ not those kids — though some of them do come back after battling…to talk. ’ sighs. ‘ i meant ones we both know. i don’t wanna give any names, but…one or two of them have an interest. i feel bad for them, so i want to let them down as easy as i can, flint. i can only do that with your help. ’

“--what kids? I thought we talked about this! You don’t gotta feel bad about winnin’ battles, Volk! Just give ‘em a few words of encouragement and send ‘em on their way! Better luck next time and all that, right? C’mon, it’s not that hard!”
Tumblr media
‘ i need to let the kids down easy, flint.      i need your help. ’

    “--dunno what makes this pen so nice. It’s just a pen, right? Nothin’ special, long as it does its job--who cares?” Pens were superior to pencils only because of the fact that they were less prone to snap. “I mean--don’t you want a better look at it? Look at you! You’re practically squintin’ just to see around my hand. How about I let go and give you your pen, huh? I’m done with it anyways.” Look, Flint is such a great guy. He’s giving his best buddy, Volkner, an out here. Take it, asshole. Before this gets awkward.
Tumblr media
‘ is it my pen? maybe that’s why it’s so nice. ’ he’s staring…so thoughtfully at this pen. truly. it’s a pen of the ages. ‘ do i need to let go? i’m just checking it out. it even has gelled ink. my favourite. ’ brings the pen ( and flint’s hand ) up for closer inspection. hums. haha. nice.

  “--yeah? ...funny you say that seein’ as it’s not---” He would complete his sentence if he hadn’t suddenly found another hand covering his own. Was this Volkner trying to be cute or a not so subtle hint that Flint should drop the pen? Sort of difficult to do if both of them were holding onto it. “...you get that this is your pen, right? You gonna let go anytime soon, Volk?”
Tumblr media
‘ that’s a really nice pen. ’ glances at the pen in flint’s palm  before holding onto it, along with his hand. haha. ‘ it’s a really nice  pen. can i use it? ’ wow. what a nice pen. he can still feel it. haha.

why... i know lots of nice gym leaders. they'd. love... to get to know you. they would.
Tumblr media
...you forgettin’ the fact that we know the same gym leaders, Volk? Trust me--if you’ve talked to them once, chances are I’ve probably had lunch or somethin’ with them.
Why’s that sound all threatening for? Look! The answer’s still the same! I don’t wanna, alright? Not interested! I’m stayin’ single for this Valentine’s and that suits me fine.

Tumblr media
...what’s with the long face, huh? How come it feels so...fake, huh? You don’t believe me, do ya, Volk? You think I’m lyin’ or somethin’?
C’mon! Why would I keep chasin’ her when I know she’s happy with someone else? ‘Sides--it was more of a joke anyways! ...kinda...I mean--where was all of this supposed to go, anyways? 
Me and Cynthia are just friends, dude! It’s not about to change anytime soon.

ok hey now i got you those... hey... hey ? those.. i went... Outside to buy them. I Went Outside. On My Birthday. To Buy You Those. How could you throw them in the trash. How Could Y
Tumblr media
–hey, man, relax! You didn’t seriously think I’d trash roses you bought with your hard earned cash, huh? C’mon–gimme some credit here! 
Look–I’ll just put ‘em in this…dish…vase…thingy! Give ‘em a lil’ water–and see? Good as new! Dunno how long they’ll last like that and hopefully they won’t catch on fire like the last flowers. That’s exactly why I don’t keep flowers around–don’t got time to smell ‘em and they’re sorta a fire hazard. 
‘Sides–I knew about Cynthia and Diantha ages ago! Who d’you think gave her the courage to go out and ask, huh?

...no, seriously. You really shouldn’t have--what the hell am I supposed to do with roses, huh?! Hey, wait---I could totally give ‘em to Cynthia! Man, you’re a genius!
Hand ‘em over, Volk!

Tumblr media
--y’know what pisses me off about you? You don’t have your priorities set! Show some shame, Volk!
Sure, I guess I can be your Valentine this time...’least I can do for you. Consider it a birthday present!
I guess I’ll have to try with Cynthia another year...

...you’re not offended? Huh...you really are a piece of work, Volk. C’mon, dude! You don’t gotta go easy on me! C’mon! Yell at me or somethin’! Tell me I’m a shitty best friend! ...you sure don’t got a problem tellin’ me off when I’m tryin’ to get you to do somethin’ like gettin’ out of bed. 
Strawberry’s fine, right? I know you’re a fan of the plain stuff but I’ve gotta eat this too! Why can’t you be normal like the rest of us? I mean--chocolate, Volk? Chocolate’s good! It’s good for you! Sure--in a little quantities or whatever but that’s good enough for me!
Hey, man--you gotta call me more! I’d love to visit more--you know that, right? Just--things have been a lil’ busy, that’s all. I swear this isn’t happenin’ again! I’m not lookin’ to make a habit of it or anything!
Tumblr media
…i’m not offended, no. is it that hard to believe? i know i’m hard to read sometimes but really, i don’t mind or anything. it’s…never been a super important thing for me. yeah, it comes once a year, but it’s still not a huge deal. don’t feel bad or anything, okay? but if you have a cake…i’ll have some. it’s vanilla, right? i hope it’s vanilla. 
and — thanks, flint. it was sort of quiet for the past few days, so it’s nice to have you visit.

...next year? ...you can’t be serious, dude...you’re not offended? Look! I wasn’t busy or anythin’! You should’ve called--I was just trainin’ and I just lost track of time, y’know? Happens to the best of us---no, no--don’t say it, Volk--you don’t gotta say a thing. I know how hurt you are! ME, ME forgetting YOUR birthday? THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!
We’ve gotta celebrate, dude! This thing just comes once a year--that’s the thing of it! How many times d’you get to celebrate your birthday before you kick the bucket, huh? It’s somethin’ special, Volk! Start actin’ like it!
Forget flowers, bro--I got you cake! Happy freakin’ birthday! Cheer up! Don’t lock all those shitty feelings inside you, alright?
Tumblr media
you’re overreacting. there’s always next year? and i just assumed you were busy…or that you had a lot of challengers. i thought saying something would seem overbearing – and i only really remembered at the end of the day myself. don’t worry about it. but if you still wanna celebrate we can — the gym’s closed just for you so go wild. anyways, i hope you got me flowers for valentines day.

...I can’t fuckin’ believe this--
Tumblr media
VOLKNER! You bastard! What’s the deal, huh?! What’s the damn deal with not tellin’ me about your birthday---I mean, not that you need to ‘cause course--bein’ your best buddy and all I should know it but--YOU COULD’VE SAID SOMETHIN’, MAN! 
Listen--we’ve gotta celebrate it! Like, right now! You think I care that it’s Valentine’s Day? Volk, you’ve gotta cancel all your plans! Free your schedule! Shut down that damn gym of your’s--not that it’s ever open...which we’ve gotta talk about one of these days just--just not right now!
