the_whitequeen | 12th Lullaby ♫ - Action for Goldenrod || Video Post

[ Johto can probably finally get a break from their usual music playing in the background.

Mister Pink the Jigglypuff and Liana the Mawile are at it again. They have taken Lacus's gear again without her permission. Lacus's video of her singing was coming out and they wanted to make sure that everyone would be able to see it. At the moment, Lacus was walking around Goldenrod looking for those two.

Mister Pink was first to appear on the screen. To most people, he may sound like he is talking nonsense --- but in Pokespeak: "Lacus-sama's performance is playing. Please watch it!"

They pointed the camera towards the multiple screens to show a video of Lacus Clyne's performance on screen. It was a video of her performing in one of the cafes that she worked for. ]

In this quiet night, I'm waiting for you
During that time, your smile has faded away
Now that a little time has passed,
Fond memories start to resurface ...

[ A little after the song ended, the sound of footsteps interrupted and a relieved voice spoke. ]

There you two are ... I was so worried about you.

I was afraid you got lost --- ara? What have you two been up to?

[ Trying not laugh, but she is blushing. ]

Well ---

-- maybe not very often.

[No restraint here. Athrun laughs gently.]

Good. That's the way it should be.

It was a well developed plan. It wasn't exactly something I did out of impulse ---

--- maybe a little.

It's also a completely outlandish plan. Possessing abandon is all but required to not only conceive it, but pull it off successfully.

But sometimes, in order to win, you have to take risks. You just have to recognize when it's necessary.

Some risks are simply worth taking ...

I wanted to fight too ... the only way I knew how. I couldn't join in the battlefield like you and Kira, but I still wanted to be of help.

And you did well. But don't forget, there are plenty of ways to help. Sometimes moral support is all we need.

I know. And I will be always here to cheer for you if you ever need it.

Thank you. I'll always be grateful for your support.

How is your business, Athrun.

By the way, I told Shinn about it. Is that alright?

Yeah, that's fine. I'm still trying to get it off the ground -- I'll need a little more time and manpower, I think.

You can do it ... I know you can ...

Again, I have to thank you for your support. I'll do my best.

[ She smiles and then becomes very silent for a while. ]

Athrun, there is something I wanted to tell you ... but I am not certain.

...What is it?

Someone here ... has told me that he may love me.

[Huh. Well, he figures it was bound to happen. At this point he's mildly curious -- after all, he can't conceive of Lacus leaving Kira.]

May I ask whom?

[ She couldn't conceive herself of doing that either. But he loved her and she knew first hand how it felt to love someone who wasn't sure yet of their feelings for her. Kira had loved Fllay Allster for a long time too. ]

His name is Varon. He is new. I don't believe you know him.

You're right. I don't know of anybody by that name here.

...Have you told him that you're already in another relationship?

I have. I could never lie about Kira ...

...Then what's the issue?

It is silly but ... I don't know what I'd do if I grew to love him.

[And that...causes Athrun's face to grow serious.]

You need to think about it logically. The main issue here is Kira. I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but his absence here doesn't eliminate what you have together. Additionally, you have to think about what would happen if Kira returned here and had to be told that the girl he loves has moved on to another man.

Also...and I'm sorry, but this is going to sound selfish...you must remember that it'll affect your relationships with other people, too. Imagine how Shinn would react if he found out.

[After saying that, Athrun's stern expression softens...but this might be even harder to look at. He's looking melancholy.]

And as for me...I don't want to be forced to choose between you and Kira. You both mean far too much to me.

So please, don't think about that. Thinking about that will only lead both you and him down the road to pain. Keep your head about you. Please.

[ She told you, Athrun, because your opinion always means a lot to her. But she couldn't help but become very quiet. She looks away briefly, looking at the screen ... but the video of her singing was over. Only a video of a commercial was up. The sunset in the background for the commercial had ... reminded her of Kira again.

She felt a twinge of regret. Varon was really trying his best to win her affections and she did see that in every call he made. ]

I'm sorry ... I could never make you do that. Choose between Kira and me.

[ Small smile. ] I don't want to hurt anyone ...

[ This situation ... was a little difficult. ] I will ... speak to him. For now, we can remain friends.
