p dir="ltr" "Eta, I, we..." Gamma / "Don't worry, I'm not going to tell a soul, but I do have a few questions."br / "Like?" Gamma asked, his body had grown stiff with nervousness, his entire body radiated / "Well, the thing is...," Eta played with his green-tan fur. "I don't just like girls, I like guys just as much." Etas face deepened to a bright red. "I, I mean, I think mating with both is okay." Eta said, just as tense as Gamma, who relaxed at the leafeons / "How much of that did you see?" I ask, getting genuinely / "Most of it, Trax is waiting outside. I came in here alone, well, because I heard you moaning, Lamda." He stared at the ground between his paws. br / "You like him, don't you?" Surprisingly, Gamma was the one who said it./p
p dir="ltr" The leafeon blushed a deeper red, embarrassment coming of him in waves. He gave Gamma a small nod. An idea came to / "I could find out if he likes guys too!" I say, perking up a little more than usual. "If ya want me to, of course." I add, giving the leafeon a big hug. As usual, Gamma looked jealous of the hug I was giving Eta. br / "Could you really Lamda?" Eta looked relieved. br / "Of course! In fact, I'll ask him before we go to bed tonight!"br / "But I thought you were sleeping here tonight." Gamma / "I'm taking a week or so off work, I'll make it up to ya!" I wink at him as I walk out the door, avoiding random litter./p
p dir="ltr" "Hiya Trax!" The Umbreon was laying down, playing with a rock between his front paws. He looked up when I / "Hi Lamda." His belly growled, causing him to look / "C'mon, let's go get something to eat!" I spoke to him, Eta, and my mate, / "Sounds good to me." br / "I'm starving!" Gamma added. The leafeon behind me, who remained silent, just nodded his agreement./p
p dir="ltr"~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/p
p dir="ltr" "Lamda seems way happier today." I whisper into Etas plant like ear, who glanced at the bubbly / "Yeah, he does seem happier." Lamda gave everyone that passed by a big hug, untill they caught Gamma glaring at them murderously. Then they hurried away like they had important business / "Hiya Sigma!" The sylveon draped himself over the Flareon, nearly choking the life out of him. br / "Hiya Lamda." He managed to squeak out when he finally broke free from the positive Pokemons hug of death. "Whatya guys want to eat?" Sigma asked us in his fast way of speaking. br / "Magikarp." Both me and Gamma said, at the same time Eta and Lamda looked sickat our / "Cheri berries!" The sylveon practically / "Anything that would never be able to speak to me at any point in its history." Eta looked / "You alright?" I asked him./p
p dir="ltr" "Yeah, I just don't like the idea of eating anything that could have spoken to me at one point, Trax."br / "I know that. You just look, I don't know, relieved since Lamda and Gamma have been around."br / "Oh. . .about that..." He trailed off, his gaze locked on the space between his paws. I waited a few / "You don't have to tell me if it's to personal." br / "It's not that, I should tell you. I just cant. I've tried, but, just thinking about saying anything steals the air from my lungs and I can't say it. I talked to Lamda about it. He said he'd talk to you for me." He gave me a little smile, a barely noticeable tug at the corners of his mouth./p
p dir="ltr" Glancing over at the sylveon, who was now crushing a pleased looking Gamma with a hug. Even the blue ringed umbreon looked happier. Which said alot. That's when Sigma brought out our food, the smell of recently cooked fish left me and Gamma practically / "Holy Arceus, Sigma! Those smell wonderful!" The leafeon beside me looked like I was about to eat his mother's remains. "How can you two not like this?" I asked the horrified / "Because leafeons are almost always vegetaian and sylveon just have to much empathy to eat another pokemon. In fact, they normally cry when they can even emsmell/em meat." Sure enough that's when I noticed tears gently hitting the low table we were at, coming from Lamda. "Don't worry about it Trax, he'll forget about it once he starts eating. I deal with this a few hundred times a day." Sigma whispered in my ear. Sure enough, when the flareon served us, Lamda went back to his normal, happy self. Laughing and hugging random pokemon that passed by our little group. We all had a wonderful time, Eta even came out of his shell a little and cracked a few jokes. By the time we were done, my first real day here was coming to an end. Gamma and Eta had finished before me and Lamda, and had gone to their homes for the night./p
p dir="ltr" "Ready to go Trax?" Lamda asked, swallowing his last / "Sure." I said, taking one last look at the waterfall, which relfected the light of the setting sun, making itself blaze a beautiful combination of pink and orange. We walked the entire way in silence, as we avoided the larger groups of umbreon that were pouring out of homes and random cave / "Eta said you wanted to talk to me about something?" I ask the sylveon once we were inside. Lamda jumps on to the couch we slept on last / "Do you like guys or girls?" He asked, looking super / "W, what?" I stuttered, taken / "Romantically, I mean. Do you you find guys or girls attractive, or both?" He adds the last part after a short / "Both, I think. It's not really something I've ever actually thought about. I've mainly been living on the road, the longest I've ever stayed in a town was a few months. I find guys attractive, girls too. Although I never done anything with either, unless you count kissing." I answer / "Well, you are young. He chuckles as he pats the spot next to him. You gonna snuggle with me again tonight?" br / "Yeah." I jump up next to him./p
