#he'll have to explain why he has that much knowledge on the move Tickle

Okay, so about three days ago, I started the DLC for Pokemon Sword (I’m currently on the Isle of Armor, and I haven’t gotten Kubfu yet).
Yesterday, I went into the Field of Focus, and I encountered a Tangela. I didn’t have a Tangela at the time, so I focused on weakening the one I encountered so I could catch it.
All the while, it kept using Tickle on my Talonflame and Lurantis. It didn’t spam it, but every time it used it, I was thinking, “Christ WHY?” It didn’t cause any problems with the battle or the catching process (I managed to catch it), but I’m having some... thoughts. Two thoughts, to be precise.
1) The Forest of Focus could be used to punish those who fail Mustard’s trials.
2) I’m imagining an AU where Shulk is a Pokemon Trainer, and he goes into the Field of Focus. I imagine that he would know what moves can be learned by which Pokemon, so everytime he sees a Tangela, he begins blushing. Why? Well, it’s because of what I said earlier.
To make things better, I can see him catching one. He probably wouldn’t use it on his team, but he’ll still give it as much love as he can give it. And he totally doesn’t teach it the move Tickle (if it doesn’t know it already) so he can find a way to satisfy his lee moods from time to time. Yep, he totally didn’t use that as a reason for catching a Tangela.

Tumblr media
She pushed herself away from the desk and slide in the chair to the other side of the room. Groaning, she stood and exited the plain room. She headed to the kitchen for something good, something that could ease her frustration.
It had been like this for a few days, her continuously having to leave her laptop out of anger and frustration. She just couldn't write. She wasn't burnt out, no, she'd already recovered from that. She had major writer's block. Every idea that came to her head didn't flow nicely, nor could she put it into words on the screen.
All knowledge of writing had left her the past few days and it annoyed her to the point where she could break down. She was an online author, so updates were vital to her work. Without updates, she couldn't get views, without views, she didn't get paid. She questioned why she chose such a difficult path.
Swinging the fridge open she grabbed the chocolate and slammed the door shut. She hopped onto the kitchen bench and let her legs hang. It was her favourite thing to do, sit there and think. The bench was surprisingly comfortable and bought a warm homey feeling. She'd done this since she was little.
Taking a bite from the chocolate she looked about her apartment. It was a medium-sized apartment that she lived alone in. Although, her boyfriend would sleep over most nights when he was free. Which he wasn't often, but he made the time.
As far as a normal human could see, her life was good. Dream job, good boyfriend, nice apartment. It was perfect. But it wasn't. She struggled much more then anyone would be able to see. She had struggled with her own mind since she was a young girl. It got to the point, she could hide it from everyone-including the people that were closest to her.
Heck-she'd even isolate herself for a bit and people still wouldn't notice. All except one. Unfortunately, (or fortunately, as she would think) she had gotten better hiding it from said person.
It was scary for her to hide it though. The one person willing to help and that notices everything-she shuts out his help. Every moment she does she knows it hurts him. She hates that. She hates hurting him. So, she continues. Continues to cut him out more and more, hoping that he'll leave and find a better person.
But she doesn't want him to leave. She wants to curl up in his arms and stay there forever. She wants that warmth, love, and support. She wants to feel happy and content.
However, every waking happy moment she has it always turns bad. A light shower of rain, enough to even see a rainbow, suddenly turning into a raging storm that could tear lives apart. But she loves the rain.
The sound of it hitting the glass window. The cold calm feeling it brings with it. The way she would have to wear a sweater every time it rains so she can be comfy and warm. Drinking hot chocolate and watching the droplets fall.
"I don't deserve it..." she mumbled.
The chocolate fell from her hand onto the bench space beside her. A few tears pricking at her eyes as every dark thought seeped their way into her mind. Lacing her brain with its toxins. The plague of the mind. Except this plague is deadlier. Killing someone with a voice in their head. Killing them slowly as they still live. Yet they don't live. They are alive, but they aren't living. As if death himself inhabited them.
A sob escapes her mouth, getting off the bench, making sure she doesn't fall. Her back sliding down the cupboard doors. She pulls her knees as close to her chest as she can, her chubby body making it hard to hug them comfortably.
More sobs leave her trembling lips. Furiously wiping the bucket loads of tears. The lump in her throat making the crying just the more painful. Though she manages to shut them up, the tears were the only thing to show for her breakdown.
The lump in her throat grows, an empty yet full stomach of emotion. Pain. That's all she feels. She didn't know what pain it was. It was like the world had come crashing down even if it hadn't. A feeling that you'd get when you were having fun and then all that happiness was sucked out of you. Exhaustion. Yet it was way more complex and stronger than those feelings. It was a feeling you'd have to experience to understand but a feeling no one should ever experience or understand.
She wanted to scream.
She wanted it to end.
...
Keys rattled.
...
A door clicked, unlocking.
The girl stood quickly and rushed to the bathroom. Forcing her tears away. Rubbing at her face rapidly. Wash, towel, wash towel-repeat a million times. She looked at herself in the mirror.
"Hey, babe?" Her boyfriend called out.
"In the bathroom! I'll be out in a second!" She shouted back.
She smiled a few times, trying to get her face into a 'normal' position rather than one that looks exhausted and broken. The door opened and she stepped out.
"Where are you?" She asked.
"Just in the kitchen," he replied.
She followed his voice and found him taking a bite of her chocolate that was left on the bench. She smiled. He was too cute.
"Come here~ I missed you so much," he whined.
The girl laughed at him before walking over and getting engulfed in a warm hug.
"I missed you too Bubba~"
The boy chuckled at her, lifting her up onto the bench. He stood between her legs and held her at her waist. Her arms rested around his neck, playing with the back of his hair absentmindedly. Their eyes locked and the once happy smile on his face was replaced by a frown and furrowed brows.
"What's wro-"
"You've been crying."
"No, I haven't."
He looked at her, raising his brow.
"You think I don't notice these things?" he asked.
"Notice what things?" She asked, trying to act innocent.
"Things such as your face being slightly red in parts. When you cry your lips get red in patches. Your nose and cheeks also have red patches. Your eyes are slightly glossed over because you can never get the tears all out. Heck, your eyes don't match your smile...babe, what's wrong?"
She lost it. The tears instantly fell, the same world crashing feeling returned. Her head hit his shoulder/neck area and she sobbed, arms wrapping around him tighter. He was taken back for a split second, quickly recovering and pulling her closer.
He whispered sweet nothings into her ear, rubbing her back to comfort her. Her pain, so strong, it filled the apartment to the point her boyfriend could feel it. Like a dark shadow flowing off her body and covering everything. The homey feeling disappearing, replaced with emptiness.
He hated it. Not what his girlfriend had caused but what she was going through. He knew she was pushing him away. He knew that she knew it hurt him. But he also knew that all she needed was some space. He wasn't new to this.
Her isolating herself. In fact, it was good for her to a certain point. The isolation was her recharge. But at some point, in the recharge she always hits, so to say, a malfunction. A percentage where she was so close to being good yet so far.
In this time, he knew to be there for her. To hug her and support her. Not to ask what's wrong but to be there for her. If she needs to talk about it, she will-after asking if it's okay to talk with him a million times.
The sobbing quietened. Soon it stopped. His shirt drenched, but he could care less. A weight lifted from his shoulder. His eyes met her tired and broken ones. They said something, an apology. An apology from breaking down, for being weak, for possibly ruining his shirt, for the toxicity, ruining their night and so much more.
But in his eyes, they held forgiveness and care. He forgave her for everything she apologised for, whether she should've apologised for it or not. He cared about her more then she knew.
She did know though. She just couldn't understand or accept it fully.
They rested their foreheads together, soft breathes tickling each other's faces.
"The voices returned..." she mumbled, eyes closed.
He studied her now calm features, the way her soft lips moved.
"What were they saying this time?"
"Everything."
She opened her glossy eyes and stared into his. No one said anything. They just stared at each other, holding one another close together.
And soon enough, the warmth returned. Her boyfriend's warmth started radiating onto her and their apartment. A soft brown light battling the dark shadow. A sad smile appeared on the girl's face. Then a happy one on her boyfriends.
"You know, your eyes are really cute. And the small scar on your lips is adorable~" He cooed.
A blush etched its way on her cheeks.
"Oh, shush it."
They both laughed.
"Do you want to know something?" She asked.
"Hm?" he hummed in response.
"You, Mr. Kim Seungmin, are the best boyfriend in the world. My Bubba."
She scrunched her face up and squished his cheeks between her hands. Seungmin laughed widely, finding it cute how her face and nose scrunched.
"And you, Ms. Kim, are the best girlfriend in the world. My adorable koala bear."
He returned the favour and squished her cheeks. The girl flushed red and groaned, pushing his hands away.
"Yah! I'm not Ms. Kim...yet. And I'm not a Koala! What are you doing home anyway? I thought you had a meeting?" She asked.
"Soon you'll be, and I can call you a Koala because you sleep a lot and are from Australia. But anyway, Chan canceled it because half of the boys are sick," Seungmin explained.
He placed his hands back onto her waist but holding her closer still. His girlfriends face turned from happy flushed to concerned.
"Why didn't you text me?! We need to go over there so I can help take care of them! I can't believe you left Chan and the others by themselves-" She jumped off the bench and move around frantically looking for her shoes- "They can barely take care of themselves when they aren't sick! Hurry-"
Seungmin hugged her from behind, stopping her from moving.
"No."
"What do you mean 'no' mister. Your friends are sick and I'm worried!"
"I said no. We are staying here together. If Chan needs help, he'll text me-or you. He always messages you first in an emergency remember?"
The girl groaned and nodded.
"Fine..."
"Yay! Now let's cuddle!"
He picked her up, causing her to squeak, and carried her to their bed. He sat on the bed and moved under the cover, still holding his girlfriend.
"Hey! You can't just-"
Seungmin placed a soft, loving kiss on her lips. She smiled and melted into the kiss. When they pulled apart Seungmin had a smirk on his lips.
"Meanie, you can't just shut me up by kissi-"
He kisses her once again. But this time when they pull back, she rolls her eyes at him and turns to face her back against his chest. She cuddles closer to him, pulling his arms around her more, loving the feeling of the warmth.
He laughed at her, nuzzling his face into her shoulder/neck area. Causing giggles to erupt from her at the tickling feeling. Happiness and warmth filled them both.
The storm that was raging moments ago now calm and showing rainbows. The toxic thoughts and feelings now flew far away, unable to hurt either one of them.
There they cuddled, in the middle of the bed wrapped in blankets. Nothing playing. No music, no talking, no sound. Just their breathing and the small kisses here and there. The room was dim as the light faded and the street outside lit it up. It had started to rain, the droplets hitting the window, creating that amazing sound.
Seungmins arms were wrapped tightly around his girlfriend. Loving her squishy, slightly chubby and small figure. The girl rested her head on his chest, her hands resting on top of his. Focus wandering. She soon drifted into a peaceful, content and happy sleep.
Her boyfriend watched her. He noticed the small things. Like the way she blinks with her eyes closed, an indication she was having a dream. The way she would make some expressions like the ones in her dreams. Or how her jaw had to be clenched shut, a habit she made as a kid out of fear of chomping on her tongue by accident.
He noticed how her cheeks flushed red when her body temperature was too high or when it was way too cold. And he even noticed how, when she has a deep sleep her lips get plumper.
He loved her with his whole heart and soul. He noticed all the details and little things. He loved how happy she'd look and feel when he pointed them out as well. It showed her that he cared a lot about her.
He smiled happily, lifting one of his hands up to play with some of her curls that had fallen free from her bun. He chuckled, watching it bounce back into place. He removed her hair tie carefully. Massaging her scalp and playing with her hair.
Soon enough, Seungmin found himself falling into a deep sleep as well.
