15th Lullaby ♫ - Action for Violet || Video

[ Lacus's smile today was not as it usually was. Her smile today was a little forced, but determined. Liana was in her arms ... with Altaria not too far behind her. ]

Hello, everyone. I wanted to record this because I thought it would be nice to receive critique for my battling skills. I have a battle at the gym soon and I feel will still need advice.



[ Unlike most of Lacus's posts to the network --- this one as actually planned. Mister Pink was holding the camera again, while Liana the Mawile was with Lacus. She had a very serious and strict look on her face.

When the camera moves again, you will see that they were both facing a large Altaria and he looked just as serious as well. ]

Liana, remember. This isn't practice anymore ...

If you hesitate, I know you're friends ... but ... Altaria will hurt you.


[ Liana responded with a nod and the battle begins. Lacus was acting and doing her best to be the best trainer she could be, doing her best to keep a poker face. But if you look close enough at her hands, you can see that they are shaking. She clenched her hands into a fist when Liana was pushed back and almost fell on her head.

In her heart, she still didn't want to fight. But she knew she had to do what she must. ]

Wait for the right moment, Liana! Then, use Bite!

[ She really needs to work on her Poker Face better. She was slipping.

She sighs. ]


I know. I apologize for worrying you.

I make an awful trainer, don't I?

I've been told ... I dislike battling too much.

Do you think it'll do any good? If they're forced into a situation they don't want to be in, your team is going to hesitate. If your training doesn't work to deal with that, it's going to cost them, and most likely your squad.

[A pause. Okay, that makes sense, but...ah!]

You need to focus on doing what you already can do better than before. If your words are stronger, focus on getting them to more people. Don't be something you're not.

Given what I know about you, that's kind of a given! It's a shame there isn't a profession here that would let you focus on a more peaceful area aside from breeding...

[ That approach may take much longer though. But what Lightning probably wanted was for her to use her strengths. And it isn't found in battling. ]

Maybe you are all right.

If so --- then maybe I know now what I must do.

I don't think being a trainer is so bad ...

I do understand now that people enjoy it and battle without any intention for harm but to be stronger.

However, if I was assigned to be in Team Rocket that is a different story. I don't know what I would have done.

[personal profile] soggypastry 2012-08-16 09:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Exactly. Play to her strengths; be a medic instead of a tank, or something like that.]

Then you know what you should be working on instead of this.

[...that was painful to watch, in the Mitsuki gets worried about her friends way.

Approaching slowly once the battle is over.]


I once told Rio that he feels pain because he's frustrated at not being able to fulfill his hopes. And that if he really wants something, he needs to put that much of his soul into getting what he wants, or he won't get it.

I also told him to just bear with it that time, but I was also there to be there for him, so he didn't need to go through it alone.

[...a pause.]

But that only works if it's for something that they believe in, because belief and bravery are needed in order to be who you want to be.

Ahh so, I'm all for supporting your way to the top if you really, really really want to continue on that road, but if you'd rather do something else - I'll support you to the top on that road too.

[...one of those situations where she obviously has too much to say?]

[ She was comforting her Altaria when Mitsuki arrived. She looked up and slowly smiled.

After the advice she received, she knew that Mitsuki would probably come. She was one of the people who could read her well. ]


Mitsuki ...

[ It was strange how all her friends seem to understand her immediately. Usually, it was her giving advice. It seems now she was going to be in the receiving end.

Her Altaria cooed when he saw the troubled look on his trainer's face. ]


Thank you, Mitsuki ...

I do need support. Right now ... I believe I know what I have to do. I am not fit for training it seems. I always knew that. I wanted to push myself because I wanted to become strong enough to protect.

But I think I decided. I will breed Pokemon to be strong enough to protect.

How 'bout you stop resisting the urge to jump in and just join with them? I did that since I hated seeing them get hurt out there. ...I got beat up myself and I probably have a scar or two, but it feels good knowing I helped them as much as I can.

[It's been a while since he spoke that much to another person. A small silence enters their conversation, punctuated only by a knife tapping against a cutting board.]

Now they don't need me to help them as much as before. They're plenty strong. And yours are well on their way too. ...Maybe they're as nervous as you are?

Ara? What is that?

I seem to hear something ...

Oh! Are you busy?

[ Was that the sound of chopping? For a moment, Lacus was quiet too. She was confused why there was chopping in the background. ]

I don't know if I can do that, but thank you for your advice.
lovechronicle: (Do your best~! :))

[and eeeeeee, altaria - why so beautiful? She'll concentrate on Lacus for now.

She just happens to have the accidental skill to read people well. She used to surprise Takuto, Meroko and Izumi with her fast realizations about ...well, everything that had something to do with them, though she had always been kind of slow to realize her own dreams and goals.

She smiles slowly too, more and more after each of her word.]


We'll support you, me and Takuto here and all of your friends will do the same all around this world. And outside this world too.

Everyone's not fit for it. I know I wasn't back when I was here before, but I changed so much in three years, I think I'm ready now.

Ah, but I might have been curious to see whether you'd choose to stay as a trainer, or decide to make a change for a breeder. I'm glad you finally found your answer. You'll be wonderful, you always are.

[There's one little cotton bird (namely a Swablu) running around like a lost child and then it runs straight to where Lacus is with her pokemon!]

[...Followed by an Audino, who seems to recognize the pink haired trainer as it waves cheerfully at her! Wait, it always does either that or uses ATTRACT to say hello, never mind. But she's seen her talking to her trainer, Winry.

Audino looks as if she's about to say something.]

[...but before Audino gets her chance to say anything, Winry finds her starter.]

Hey, Didi, did you fin--

[oh hello familiar face. well, apparently she has the chance to meet this adorable pink haired girl today again♥]

Hey! I guess I should make her find pokemon and people more often if she's this good at it.

[Meaning she's glad to see you, though is there something weird in this atmosphere / situation?]

After what me, Keiichi and Mammon-san had to do to get her out of there... They damn well better leave her alone. I would single-handedly take them down a peg if they hurt her like they did back then.

Still, it was months and months ago, nearly a year now... So I doubt they even remember she was in the team.

Maybe that was what I always needed ... to be sure of where I am needed. Lightning and ... everyone made it clear that my place isn't in the battlefield.

I am only disappointed with myself that it took me this long to see it.

[ Her Altaria blinked --- and ran towards Mitsuki and rubbed itself against her leg. The funniest thing about Lacus's Altairia ... is that it was a playboy and possessive when it comes to girls. ]

I will see what I can do about becoming a breeder instead.

I am sorry if I worried you ... all of you. [ Liana suddenly appears and gives Lacus a tight hug. Liana did love Lacus whatever she wanted to do. She was going to miss the exercise, but she didn't like Lacus looking sad. ]

Oh my, Hayate! You mean ... all of you rescued her?

Hayate, you really are a kind person to do that. It couldn't have been a very easy thing to do.
