-- Why was picking the icon the hardest part?
Characters: Silver and MotochikaAniki
Location: In the forest
Time: Monday afternoon
Style: Action unless Dana wants prose.
Status: C L O S E D
[Silver let his head drop as he lowered his blade after the final kata, breathing heavily. Damnit, but even ten days after New Years, he was still confused over the whole 'little brother' thing, never mind what else had happened. It made no sense; he didn't need or want a family or anything like that-- it was stupid, worthless and it only lead to hurt and loss.
Which only frustrated him, though he wasn't going to go to the pirate samurai for answers as to why he'd called Silver a 'little bro'. Silver could and would figure them out on his own. After all, he'd bee doing fine so far - gotten this far on his own. He didn't care for the bonds he'd formed here, they would only hold him back. Family was loss, pain and abandonment, and like hell he was even going to open himself up for that again..
A shake of his head and he started the katas again, this time with more force than needed; Anything to clear his mind of stupid, stupid crap that didn't mean anything. ]

no subject
[Just the most unimpressed look, Silver. But he doesn't seem to look particularly angry, stabbing the anchor back into the ground and a hand returning to his pocket.]
... but you gotta settle down.
What's your beef? That Red got ya? That your pa wasn't good to ya? That yer not strong enough?
... Or all of it?
no subject
His unpocketed hand clenched into a fist along with a dark look at Red's name though, then even more of a dark look at the part about his dad, but the not strong enough -- yea, that gets the biggest reaction, because Silver, right now, knows it's true; he's not strong enough - he wasn't strong enough when he came here and he's only making a snail's pace progress here. It stings - more so because whether he likes it or not, his measure of strength comes from how strong his father was a gymleader.] ........
Hmph. Dad was good to me, but he was busy most of the time. More so after mum died. He was just a fucking coward in the end and gave up his dreams because of some snot nosed brat called Red.
[.. You know what. Just, not going to even care that he's confessing things that he doesn't want to.
He will when he starts to confess to silly, stupid things.]no subject
[But afterwards, he just lets it go with a huff.
Then he steps forward again and a hand comes forward-
To rest atop Silver's head.]
Lesson one: never call your father a coward, especially if he was good to you. That's ungrateful.
Lesson two: don't diss Red in front of me. I don't care if you two have a feud and I don't care if you blame him for things that went wrong.
But I won't stand for my bros insultin' each other.
no subject
[Have a startled look along with a reflexive flinch when that hand comes to rest on his head, though there is a scowl soon after..] T ... Hmph. The bastard ran away like a coward after Red defeated him. He just abandoned me like that, only thinking of himself. I wasn't even 13 and he left me to face the police and play stupid about what he did.
..... I'm not your bro. Family just abandons you and I don't need it!
no subject
Instead Motochika will bend at the waist, meeting Silver eye to eye.]
Right.
I don't 'ppreciate that one bit, but he's your pa. He meant the world to you. If you don't believe in that, what's left to believe in?
[A slight arch of his eyebrow.]
But hey. I ain't left you alone yet. Give it a chance before ya shoot it down. Figure it's tough, but 'Aniki' isn't just a nickname, runt. S'a promise.
no subject
Hmph. No, you're an interfering busybody with a bleeding heart. [SCOWL.] Just like everyone else. And stop calling me runt!
no subject
[That's a really rough hair ruffling coming your way, Silver.]
Then stop actin' like a brat! You've been wronged. I get it. Now what the hell're ya doing? Pushin' everyone away and then cryin' 'bout bein' abandoned?
Where the hell will ya admit that maybe you gotta rethink things? You're young! Realize it. You can still change your mind- never too late for that.
OTL Was enabling Rocket castmates for Silver. /ALL THE SPAZZING
[He really should get it cut, but he likes it long. Still, he's going to pause at the words, because damnit, he knows they are true - even if he doesn't like them.] ..... ..
And what good is re-thinking things when it just leads to confusion? Yea, I'm trying - making an effort, but it's getting me nowhere and fast.
FFFASDL;JDF OH JEEZE
Confusion means you're thinkin'. To stay the same is to be dumb as nails.
But you ain't tryin' hard enough if yer still provokin' N and spitting out venom, kid. Not tellin' ya to be all sunshine and flowers, but hell if it's progress if all yer doin' now is takin' yer anger out on tryin' to get stronger just to push more people around, get it?
That won't get ya nowhere.
YUS, And it's looking like I get a Giovanni 8D
Yep. Silver is officially squawking and flailing.] He.... [Yea no, going to bite down on that comment about N and patheticness. It would probably not be wise to say it in a headlock.]] .... It's progress if I'm trying hard not to hit anyone or thing, alright?
Let me go!
...... ugh aniki won't be pleased
but he won't be letting you go, though the noogie will stop]
... maybe.
But are you just tryin' to get them to hit ya first so you can't call it self-defense?
He can join Silver in Table Flipping? which will happen as Gio Reserve 8D /fml edit
It's embarrassing ok?] ..............
ffffas;dljsf oh god....
No.]
... ya can't take yer anger out on other people like that, kid.
It's destructive and will only make it harder. What'll happen when ya pick a fight with someone ya can't win against...?
And they just ain't as patient as me?
8D And this curse is the best thing ever or Silver would just be '.....' by now.
But a complete freeze at the 'against someone you can't beat'.] ..............
.... Already done that when I picked the wrong person to tick off. [is that... guilt? Maybeeee.] He hurt Magnemite pretty bad and could have done the same to me.
the most convenient!! now Aniki can really play Aniki
Motochika lets go of him then, but doesn't go far. He leaves a hand on Silver's shoulder before bending at the waist again to see his expression.]
... alright. So ya got scared.
Just shows you gotta be careful wit' what ya do and say, alright? Now... I've got yer back before anyone hurts ya- but I won't be so happy if it turns out you were the one provokin' 'em.
Fightin's alright, Silver. But make sure you've got a reason for it.
Yup! He does it so well. <3
Yea, whatever. [It's... going to take a lot more than words to get him to even start to believe that he won't just be abandoned by 'family'. But give it time and he might start to actually accept it.
Sort of like how he's slowly accepting others....]

[and with that, he drops Silver]
Don't make me test my luck again.
no subject
[A shake of his head though as he bites back his retort, mostly. But... maybe this meeting has been good for something --] .. Respect is earned, not just given. I don't respect anyone just because they say so or they might punch me again or worse.
That's the coward's way.
