Having decided against heading back with the others, Connor was content to remain seated on a couch in the Pokémon center, eyes bright as he stared down at his dex in his hands. He’d been watching performances since he’d gotten these, though the one that stuck most in his mind was the one of the brunette in a red dress.

Because it was Mel.

Was it stress relief for her? To get on stage and slip into a different role, pretend to be someone else? She’d done an excellent job. He was, honestly, awestruck. And Karou, the Whimsicott, has done excellent as well.

“Almost perfect.” He mused, watching the grass-fairy use magical leaf against Lexi’s thunderbolt. “Almost perfect.”

Pom couldn’t agree more.

“No way-ay.” Connor grinned, releasing his hair from the death grip he’d had it in for a bit. “No scissors for you, Angie. Absolutely not.”

“No way, your scissors could attract the scissor monster and then he could eat my head!” Connor gasped, reaching up to grasp his spiky hair again. It had always been rather spiky, and when Mel had mentioned it looked kinda cute, he’d insisted on keeping it the way it was.

”Wouldn’t it cut your head off?” Pom argued, rolling her eyes as she chirped.

“I hate you.”

~•~•~•~

I won’t apologize.

Mel slammed the door shut and stepped out heels clicking against the tiled floor. She’d escaped back to the contest hall again, fully decked out in a red dress and heels to match it.

“And next up is Aubrey Vitale!”

She’d always been an actor.

Riu— Acier— shot her an achingly familiar grin. You’e got this, Brie.

Karou, bless her soul, reached a small paw up to pat her head comfortingly from her spot on the brunette’s shoulder.

She had always been an actor.

And she wasn’t apologizing either.

“It has not happened yet!” Connor gasped, scandalized as he gripped his hair. “I will never cut my hair! Not as long as the scissor-demon waits for its chance to strike! Never again! I can never look at the moon the same again!”

“Thank you,” Connor said smugly, beaming up at Snow. “How do you know I will be fine? Maybe there is a huuuuge scaaaaarryy monster that eats people who get their hair cut.” He suggested with a small snort.

“Please do not come anywhere near me with scissors, Angie.” Connor remarked firmly, eyes bright with a surprising amount of energy for someone who’d spent the whole day chasing a rogue teenager around an evil base that surely wanted him dead. Ah, to be a preteen and young again. “I swear, I would really like to keep my eyes in my head.”

[honestly?? I forget about Connor all the time,, poor kid lmao]

“Thanks,” The brunette offered Snow a small smile. “Maybe I will. And the same for you, too.” He offered lightly, brushing his hair out of his eyes again. He really needed to do something about his hair, it was starting to get frizzy again. Pom claimed it made him look older, but he refused to believe her, she was a known trickster.

Connor nodded thoughtfully, tucking his hands into his pockets.

Robert was right. He was just quiet, not forgettable. Even though sometimes he assumed the others forgot he existed. Which, actually, was more often than not, but it didn’t faze him very much. He had Pom and Simon, and he could always call or text Mel or Mia or even Luciana.

Still, uselessness was a hard feeling to shake off.

He shrugged and shook himself.

“Now forgettable am I?”

The question surprised even Connor, though he was the one who’d asked it. “How forgettable?”

~•~•~•~

Deep breathes.

One, two, three, exhale. One two three, inhale.

”.. Are you done?”

“I have work to do. On my personality, I mean.” Mel mused with a soft sigh. “Today i came to them to try and apologize. I didn’t know how. And then I flipped out on them. Maybe I should just give up.”

”We all have issues. It just makes us who we are, y’know? What’s Mira without her explosive anger? What’s Tiger without his constant urge to run headlong into dangerous situations? .. What are you without your carefree attitude? Nothing.”

“.. I hate you.” Mel whines, enveloping her partner into a weak hug, which he returned a bit stronger.

”Love you too.”

This group has always been a time bomb. You know what? I contributed. I know I did. We all did.

Can’t pile all the blame on me this time. Sorry, but that award goes to my good ex Tiger.


Mel paused, eyes narrowing thoughtfully.

Ex. Was that the right word..?

You know what? Now that she actually stopped to think about it.. Maybe it wasn’t.

She wasn’t sure if she’d ever actually.. Ever actually felt anything. Sure, there had been fleeting moments in Kalos and Johto, but no, she’d never felt any.. Any different toward Tiger than she did to the others.

She was ridiculous.

”You know you can’t change who you are,” Riu had popped up out of no where, red eyes bright with an unidentifiable something. ”It’s just you. Biology, genetics, whatever.”

“I thought I was bisexual.”

”You’re not. We both know it.”

“I don’t know the right word.”

”Aro. Aromantic.”

“I’m awful.”

”Me too.”

They walked in silence for a bit, blue eyes teary and red eyes firm.

“.. That means Acciaio is the only one in my party who likes girls.”

”What is wrong with you you were just having a midlife crisis—“

~•~•~•~

Connor was torn.

Part of him wanted to chase after Mel, his sister, his best friend, the only one who ever actually remembered he existed half the time, but he didn’t.

He just stood there and watched as everyone moved on.

And he couldn’t.

He couldn’t move on.

“Really? Pulling out the old ’oh no we have trust issues!’ thing?” Mel shot back. “Gosh, poor you. Can’t imagine what it’s like. Bring it. And wow! Heartbreak! In your teens? Good lord, I can’t imagine. You know what? We could've met up. But I’m glad I didn’t ask for help. You’re all ridiculous, honestly. And don’t drag Zara into this, I roped her into it. Literally.”

Blue eyes turned on green. “I really, really hate you.”

“Me too.” Was Connor’s immediate reply.

It dragged a faint smile across Mel’s lips. “Ridiculous. Love you, my dude.” She grinned, blowing a mock-kiss in his direction. He lifted one hand in response, a wave of sorts.

“‘S why Hoenn sucks. Just because this group is in it. Being apart of that group and this team were the worst mistakes I’ve ever made.” She turned on her heel and stormed out again, pausing only to turn and sigh. “Your group is just a ticking time bomb. Too many clashing personalities. Good *Foongus*-ing luck. You’re gonna need it.”

“Wait, Mel—“ Connor wailed. She shook her head and stormed off.

“‘Don’t you have a pokeball for Acciaio?’” Mel mocked. “Coming from you and your uncontrollable Cyndaquil, that’s rich. Completely rich.” She spotted Setchi’s pokeball and a bit of hurt flashed through her eyes, though it was fast and (she prayed) unnoticeable. “What? Is messaging so much easier than actually facing your problems? Really?” She hissed after Tiger, fury tearing through her (more commonly now) bright eyes. She barely tossed Mira a glance. “Sorry that I’m breathing in the same vicinity as you, next time I’ll hold my breath.” She spat.

“Wait, please—“

“You’re all ridiculous,” Mel spat right back, slamming the return button on Acciaio’s pokeball. “Honestly.”

Mel slammed her head against the wall with a frustrated groan, rubbing her cheeks. “Can’t yo one damn day without losing someone, for god’s sake—“ She grumbled, standing hesitantly.

’Nothing personal!’ Oh, yeah, nothing personal. What kind of a speech was that? Christ. I’m gonna cry. She shook her head bitterly and stepped forward cautiously.

Riu paced around behind her, red eyes alight with discomfort and uncertainty (he was fully prepared to kick someone. Probably himself. Most likely himself).

“Can I please have my Pokémon back, or—“

“What, no hello?”

“Sorry, excuse me. Hi, group that I betrayed mere hours after arriving here, how’ve you been? Good, I hope? Can I have her back now—“

Acciaio simply gripped Connor’s arm tighter and non brunettes groaned, Connor attempting to unlatch himself and Mel looking ready to sprint out of the room at any second. Acciaio held strong. Mel looked ready to cry. Or die. Maybe both.

Connor never got the chance to respond. Thanks, Acciaio.

The shiny had nearly stabbed her paw spike through Riu’s skull in a wild attempt to free herself from his grip, dashing out to greet Connor with a bark.

“Oh, nonono—“

“Damnit!”

Two voices raised with frustration and Mel slammed her hand over her mouth, reaching out to drag Riu away from the door, sinking onto the ground, still covering her mouth.

“Acciaio!”

The Lucario smiled, grasping Connor’s hand with her paws and an excited grin.

“No! Go back!” He hissed, eyes wild with shock. She frowned and shook her head, attaching herself to his side (from behind the wall, Mel and Riu both sighed).

“Nothing,” Connor responded immediately, quietly, carefully. He shook his head at Acciaio, who looked prepared to greet him, watching her slink back into the shadows.

Mel shook her head, gripping her chest. “Shh.” She hissed, resting her head against the wall. “Let them go. If you want to go, go for it. I’m not going.”

“Oh, come on, admit it; I’m hilarious,” Mel grinned, reaching back to pat Zara’s shoulder. She nudged a final door open, spotted the group, paled, and threw herself backward immediately.

Connor tossed a glance over his shoulder and spotted the familiar tuft of brown hair, though he didn’t say anything and simply shook his head, watching on with bright eyes as Riu and Acciaio passed by the door.

“TIGER!” That was Connor screaming, sprinting forward and flailing his arms around violently as he skid to a halt. “Oh thank god, you’re alive!” He grinned.

Somewhere behind him, Pom was shrieking angrily about stupid show-off Lucarios and whatnot.

~•~•~•~

“Missed what? My amazing flirting?” Mel grinned, blue eyes gleaming with amusement. “I know, I’m fantastic at flirting, thanks.”

Not bothering to think of a response, Mel simply winked and threw Zara a mock-kiss. “Thanks, babe. ‘Preciate it.”

Somewhat out of breath, Acciaio groaned and Riu snorted (and tripped and fell).

“Angie, how is fighting in a dress?” Connor tossed a grin over his shoulder.

“HEYHEY MEL!” Connor screeched to a halt, nearly tripping over his own feet upon spotting Angelica. “MOVE I AM GOING TO LOSE HER—“ He shrieked, darting around the girl.

“LOVELY NIGHT FOR A LITTLE MAYHEM!” Mel yowled, launching herself forward to slam a door open and tumble through it.

“Mother of—“ Mel let out a string of choice words, still typing passwords violently into the computer to keep it hers. “Something’s up with Drew. I thought she was okay, but..” Guilt flashed through her eyes and she groaned and dropped her head onto the desk. “It’s not.. It’s.. Not..” Her eyes widened suddenly and she took off again, grabbing her backpack and taking off down the hallway.

“MEL!” Connor shrieked, puzzled as he unplugged her dex and tucked it into his pocket. “WHERE ARE YOU—?”

Mel didn’t respond, but Riu shook his head silently. ”The griseous orb.” He said quietly before sprinting after his trainer. Connor blinked. Honestly? He’d forgotten all about that orb.

The lustrous orb flashed hopefully in his backpack.

He didn’t question it.
