-The glow subsides, and a Tyrantrum is left in Sue's place-
Tyrantrum!Sue: -Does an even louder roar-
Kamella: -Hides in her shell-
Aaron: -To me- <You sure evolving her was a good idea?> >_>
Well, this tells me they we ought to go fight the local Gym leader soon enough, since Sue's already fully evolved.

-Herbert's tone becomes sardonic as he answers Lyuri.-
Herbert: What, did you think I just made up the story about my dysfunctional upbringing for sympathy or something?
-He looks over at Duke.-
Herbert: Oh, it wouldn't say it's hard. It's pretty safe to assume that they're all assholes.

Shalour City - Yesterday
Herbert: Our family patriarch was a bloodthirsty warlord who betrayed his own people and slaughtered half a nation for daring to stand up to the dictatorial regime that he served. These things tend to run in the family.
-He glances at Duke and raises an eyebrow.-
Herbert: ...Something on your mind?

-Herbert nods at Heidi, looking rather pale.-
Herbert: Yeah... yeah, I guess you could say that.
-He pulls Heidi into a hug.-
Herbert: So, where's your trainer, cute squishy squiddy thing?

-Looking Sue up and down-
Hmm...
Aaron: <Tagg... what are you thinking about?>
Sue's pretty big, as in big enough to ride. Fast too.
Sue: <Will there be meat?>
Sure.

-Herbert's eyebrow remains firmly cocked.-
Herbert: You have met Titan, haven't you? I have good reasons for not putting much stock in the concept of family.

-Herbert waves to Samantha.-
Herbert: Oh, that? It's... it's nothing, really. Just didn't sleep well. Taking a nap outside in the snow tends to do that to you.

"I did, yes, but the only time I talked with him he got... Very upset with some comments I made about you." said Duke, wincing
"When I saw him I'm pretty sure he gave me a death threat over what happened in that alley." said Lyuri, cringing a little

Shalour City - Yesterday
-Herbert's expressions twists into a dark grimace and his tone starts dripping with bitterness, though he seems to be able to focus his vitriol solely on Titan.-
Herbert: ...I'm sure you both saw enough of him to know what he's like. He's ruthless, manipulative and utterly amoral. And he's still out there somewhere, still trying to finish what Cyrus started. You see why I don't want to turn out like he did?
-He gives an angry sigh and turns away again.-
Herbert: "The sins of the father are to be laid upon the children." That's how the old saying goes, after all...
Shalour City - Today
-Herbert gives a stretch, heaves himself to his feet, and turns to Samantha.-
Herbert: Well, me, Duke and his girlfriend had a sparring session to help me get back into practice with Aura constructs. Which somehow turned into a discussion about family, and how mine are jerks.

-Heidi may see images of a mutated Bulbasaur, a massive, hulking creature that resembles a ghostly Kyurem, and a gout of fire hurtling towards her before Herbert wakes with a start.-
Herbert: GAH! I... oh, hey there, Heidi...
-He pats the Inkay.-
