Summary: Lance erases Red's memory again.
"All I want to do is protect you," Lance whispered, as he watched Red sleep. His pokémon watched silently, not interfering, though it had taken both Venusaur and Vee to restrain Pika. "But how can I protect you from myself?"
Red did not answer, but the Dragon Master did not expect him to. Golden eyes narrowed in a sigh before he bent down to kiss him. Blue light swirled around both of them, and Poli gasped as he realized what he was doing.
No! You can't…!
Lance did not reply, his golden eyes wide and staring. For many moments, he barely breathed, before finally, he shuddered.
Dragon Master? Aeroy asked anxiously.
"It's fine now." Lance smiled. "Keep him safe for me, for when we meet again, we may no longer be friends." He turned, but not fast enough to hide the look on his face.
Aeroy looked at him sadly as he and Ptera flew away. He was right, of course. Now that the disease was slowly destroying him, it would be safer if Master Red forgot him… but even so…
It must hurt them both so much…

Red: *Sob*
Lance: *Hugs Red*
Phantomness: *Crying* Well, this could technically be canon… Lance has delusions of grandeur and all that, why not a few other mental disorders?
