standing in the ashes at the end of the world

When: Monday and onwards
Where: By the lake, or running round like a crazy
Status: Open!

Horrible. She'd woken up and everything had been horrible. With the glow, and the fairy. She'd woken up in her lonely one person apartment alone. She still hated that, that she knew there was no one close by to visit her. Still, she was slowly getting used to it. But that morning she really could have used a friendly face, and what she wouldn't give for a hug.

Selphie left her apartment to go in search of friends or, really, anybody. But there was no one around just a fairy... but then...

Then there were people at the end of the hallway. Selphie approached them, but they laughed and ran off without her. She chased them, only to notice Squall...but Zell was there too. Zell was telling Squall all about how everyone had pretty much forgotten about Selphie back home. He didn't know her. And as she rushed up to wave, to yell, both Squall and Zell just stared, like she was a woman they'd never known.

Her way into town is haunted by similar visions - friends she knows and doesn't know abandoning her, forgetting her, leaving her alone. Really alone.

It's more than Selphie can take, and she runs across the plaza, towards the lake, though she can't say why. She's just running.

Welcome to Selphie's fears, Vatheon. Here's a girl with abandonment issues being forgotten, ignored, and left behind.

"Yeah! That's him! But you haven't met him before?" Selphie managed a small smile, feeling better with the small talk. "He seems to like everything, and be good at everything!"

Burgh kinda "likes" Wallace ;)

[creative_lovebug]

"I have met him briefly at the Pokemon World Tournament. Along with his friend, Steven Stone. Meeting others from other regions is such fun. Wallace is such a wonderful, creative man. We're very alike."

oh geez :p

[booyaka_boom]

Selphie smiled slightly, if a little awkward. So this guy knew about Wallace's friend Steven too. And also thought of Wallace in a very positive way, "Well then, that's good. You guys should meet up!"

[creative_lovebug]

"Meet up? That's a good idea, yes. I have spoken with Wallace many a time along with his friend, Steve Stone. They are good friends of mine." He nodded.

[booyaka_boom]

"Well, then, I bet he'd be real pleased to meet you. It's nice to have friends here that you know from before." She smiled, and nodded.

[creative_lovebug]

"Yes, you are right." He nodded. "I know many people in the world of Pokemon."

[booyaka_boom]

"Great! I bet Wallace will be really happy to see you, too!"

[creative_lovebug]

"Oh yes, he will. We are good friends, him and I." Burgh smiled. He adored Wallace for who and what he was. An artist unlike himself.

[booyaka_boom]

"Well, that's great! If I see him soon, then I'll let him know that I met you!" Selphie smiled, always pleased when friends came together, "He'll love having someone to talk about Pokemon with."

[creative_lovebug]

"Thank you. If you could that would be great." He nodded in thanks. "Thank you, Selphie. You are a kind and thoughtful girl."

[booyaka_boom]

Selphie smiled at the compliment but shook her head, if only slightly, "Nah!"

[creative_lovebug]

[yeah sorry XD]

"Ah, but you are kind and thoughtful."

[teeheehee]

[booyaka_boom]

Selphie smiled sweetly at that and put a hand on her hip, "Oh, really? What makes you say so?"

Re: [teeheehee]

[creative_lovebug]

"Because you look a thoughtful and kind girl, Selphie. That's why." He returned with a smile.

[booyaka_boom]

Selphie just smiled back, looking amused, "Well thank you very much."

[creative_lovebug]

"You're very welcome." Burgh smiled and nodded.
