16th Healing | Thinking about Fathers [Video]

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Hey, Genessia.


[ The video opens up to Konoka chilling outside somewhere in Fayren city. Her Umbreon Yuunagi is pacing by her side. She'd been pretty much on autopilot lately. Mavis's uncontested victory meant that she didn't really have to bother too much with the elections, and thus stuck to her usual routine of minding her store and calling out healing wherever she wanted. ]


You know what? Today's Father's Day.

It's not often we think about our dads as much... at least in my case. But sometimes I wonder if I don't give him enough credit. After all, he was part of the big group who first saved my world more than 25 odd years ago... before I was even a twinkle in his eye. But I know not all dads are great.

Despite achieving all that, my dad is still an idiot with a smoking habit. And I'm starting to miss him.


[ She gives a slightly pained smile for a moment, but then shrugs it off. Yeah she misses him. She misses a lot of her friends and family... Setsuna most of all. But she's at least confident that when it's all said and done, they'll still be waiting for her whenever Genessia feels like letting her go, however long that is. ]


Any of you think about your dads lately? Hero? Worthless jerk faces? Something in-between?

[ If only she could give him a hug right now.

She'd have to settle for giving her screen an awkward hug. ]

It's good that he did. And no matter the pain, you can always have my support.

[Lucky couldn't help but chuckle at the screen hug.]

Thanks. Listen I need to get out of the house anyway, so why don't you meet me at the beach in Nova City to give me a hug for real?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Oh, of course! I don't visit Nova City very often, so this gives me a good excuse to go!

[ She gave a good-natured laugh. ]

Okay, I'll see you there then.

[Lucky signs off and after however long it takes Konoka to get there, she'll find him laying on the sand about twenty feet away from the water with Caesar and the Pokemon curled up on his stomach still trying to cheer him up apparently.]

[ Konoka initially thought that he might not be serious about it. For the record, it took her about 15 minutes before she decided to at least head over. If he didn't show, then she at least managed to enjoy the beach!

But when she got there, she easily recognized the man on the ground, currently dogpiled by a Pokemon and a machine. Yes, this morose man needed a hug. ]

Hello there. You look like you need a hug! ...or more hugs I'm thinking.

[ Despite the somber meeting, Konoka can't help but smile at the sight. ]

[Looking up with a blink, Lucky managed a smile and a nod as he set his pets on the sand. Caesar squeaked and dove right back into his lap, he didn't like the sand apparently.]

Yep.

[He patted a spot next to him on the sand for Konoka to sit.]

[ Konoka peered at that spot for a moment, shrugged, and sat down. Any excuse to be there for a while couldn't hurt, and he looked like he could use both this AND the hug. ]
