♔ Eyes brimming with dark flame...
Characters: N and Minato
Status: Closed.
It had been two days since N had been home, and no one seemed quite sure where he was. His name was still on the SFC, and he had been spotted once or twice, but he missed any appointments he had made and did not contact any of his friends or housemates.
If one paid close attention, however, in the early morning hours, they might catch sight of Purrloin darting down the street, a stolen bagel in her mouth. She heads out of the plaza and far beyond the city limits, slipping into the forest.
In one of the forest clearings, there sits the missing boy, surrounded by his team and seemingly content. He reaches out and takes the bagel from Purrloin's mouth, giving her a fond stroke before he takes a bite.

[ The edges of his lips turn upwards slightly. It is as if when he smiles, he does not think about doing it; it is just a natural instinct he cannot control.
But then his attention returns to Minato, considering the question. ]
I do not want to be in that city... it is so dead there. This place may be short on Pokemon, but there are creatures here in the forest-- animals, they called them. This place is much more ideal.
no subject
Change the world? Why does the world need changing?
[It's simply a curious question for now. He has no reason to be accusing.]
no subject
[ He looks up towards the watery sky. ]
Funny how even in the deepest of oceans, the marks of humanity can be found. How far will they spread, how much will they destroy?
no subject
...I am curious about something, N-kun.
Why do you have the right to judge this?
no subject
[ There is a dangerous confidence in his voice, an absolute surety that N, the future N, N the Fool, never has. ]
By Reshiram. It awoke for me, after so many years in slumber, after so many others tried.
no subject
[...]
Being a hero does not give you the right to judge all others.
no subject
And now it stands with me, against what has happened to the land it birthed. I have heard the cries of the Pokemon, I have seen their scars and felt their fear. I know what humankind has done to them. Will continue doing to them if they are not stopped.
The Pokemon cannot defend themselves against humankind, so I will.
no subject
The choice seems to be yours.

Why? What's wrong with grey?
no subject
no subject
Do you intend to simply get rid of them, merely because they aren't so clear-cut?
no subject
[ N shakes his head. ]
That would cause more pain. I do not want that, even for people. No, I will separate people and Pokemon.
no subject
So you wish to separate grey from grey? N-kun, that won't make the world you're imagining.
no subject
[ And it seems N really does want him to understand. As he speaks, he perhaps looks more like his future self than at any other point, a childish excitement bubbling over even if his words are more suited for a fanatic. ]
You see, if the Pokemon are free from humanity -- if they are no longer forced to battle, forced to work, are able to live freely -- then they can become the perfect beings they were meant to be.
no subject
I don't understand. And it sounds to me as though...you haven't tried to.
no subject
[ N stops, cocking his head at Minato again. He twitches, blinks slowly, and then turns his head the other way. He is not used to people arguing with him. There is so much new to him, it is difficult to handle it or know how to respond. ]
no subject
Why do Pokemon and humans live together?
no subject
[ He says it so plainly, so cleanly, as if he is reciting from a textbook. ]
no subject
That is the only way humans and Pokemon ever grow to live together?
no subject
[ N had his own problems thinking about that, but he was focused on trying to explain this to Minato. ]
no subject
If an "unless" exists, more may as well. Then it is no longer an absolute statement--how may you judge absolutely on a statement that is flawed?
no subject
The "journey" consists of attacking any wild Pokemon one encounters in their habitat as the children travel through cities, and capturing those they decide are useful, to use in battle with any trainer that challenges you. They are vicious, you know. You have no choice but to battle them when they spot you, and they push their Pokemon so hard--
[ N growls under his breath. ]
This is what is "acceptable," to humans. To send their children out to attack Pokemon in their homes, leave them fainted in the grass or take them away from their family units, their packs and flocks...who knows how many eggs have gone cold, or hatchlings have starved, because a trainer caught their parent and took them away.
no subject
I did not suggest that one way was right and the other wrong. It isn't my place to pass a judgement like that.
...Likewise, that is what I'm questioning.
Whether it is right or wrong...for so long as it is not that way in its entirety, it is not fair to judge all for the thoughts of some.
no subject
[ N's expression darkens further, a deep set anger in his eys. ]
Or will you not pass judgment on that, either?
