871. ineffable: incapable of being expressed
Silver apparently had not realized that appearing in a public building in a hot mess was not a good idea. When Green mentioned so, Silver flushed and punched Green in the stomach. Hard. Green spluttered, but it was worth it – it was nice not being the blushing idiot sometimes.
Silver handed over his pokeballs to the nurse and then excused himself roughly to go the bathroom. Green shrugged and walked out of the building. Gold was lying spread-eagled on the sidewalk.
"Greeeeen?" Gold turned an unnaturally reddened cheek to face Green. "Silver's such a tsundere… He slapped me…"
Green walked over and sat on Gold's stomach. The younger kid, made an oomph, but Green was amazed by how he didn't complain about his weight, but about Silver. "Silver baby doesn't understand that even if he thinks love is ineffable, all you need is a couple hugs and anybody'll understand…"
872. imposing: impressive by virtue of size, power, or manner
Green pursed his lips. "Nah, it doesn't work like that for everybody."
Gold narrowed his eyes and smirked. "Red isn't the snuggling type?"
Green bounced on Gold's stomach, and the boy gasped. "Ok ok you could have just said no! You may be light but bro, bouncing on my beautiful, imposing abs is not comfy."
873. vanguard: the leading position in an army or fleet; the leading position in a movement or trend
Green deadpanned. "I have never heard anybody ever call their own muscles imposing."
Gold rolled over, forcing Green to stand up. He patted off his clothes and then posed dramatically. "Well you just did. I am, of course, the vanguard of style and coolness."
Green covered his eyes. "You have got to be the most embarrassing person I know."
Gold bowed. "I'm honored."
"You're an idiot."
874. calamity: an event causing extreme trouble and misery
Silver tried to sneak out of the Pokecenter without being noticed by Gold, but his red hair and black clothes gave him away easily. Gold grabbed Silver and Green, linked elbows, and started marching off to Green's apartment with the other two in tow – Green on the left, Silver on the right. Green tried to wriggle out of it, but Gold had surprisingly strong arms. Green looked over Gold's head at Silver, who was trying to twist Gold's arm but was instead twisting his own.
Somehow the three made it to Green's apartment without anything calamitous like dislocated shoulders could happen. When they barged in, Latias looked up over the sofa curiously, and then laid back down to sleep.
875. irony: a use of words in which the intended meaning is very different from the literal sense; an incongruity between what might be expected and what actually occurs, especially one that suggests a lesson about human folly
Green dug out an old board game, and for the rest of the day they played very much so uncensored Monopoly. They eventually got to screaming obscenities at each other (well, Latias meekly sat on the side, quietly moving her own game piece). When they finally called quits around five, Gold had won nearly everything with his insane luck, and Silver was second (oh the irony), with Latias in third and Green in last.
876. ingenuous: innocent; naïve
Gold got to decide where to eat as the winner, but he insisted on Silver cooking. Silver agreed reluctantly after some urging from Latias (at least Gold had made a fairly ingenuous request, it could have been a whole lot dirtier) and he nervously walked around in the kitchen, opening the refrigerator and looking around for familiar foods he could work with.
877. meritorious: deserving reward or praise
Green got bored of watching Silver cut carrots, so he tidied up the little pieces from the board game and got to work on some seriously overdue laundry and vacuuming. The apartment was in uproar with the sound of the kitchen fan, the growling of the laundry machine, and the roaring of the vacuum. Latias flew onto the roof to get some peace, and Gold plugged his ears and hid in the bathroom.
An hour later, Silver went around screaming for people to shut everything off and get to the dinner table, and they eventually assembled around the dinner table. There was a large plate of fried rice at the center of the table, and although Green was not impressed, Gold found it meritorious and hogged about half the plate.
878. prodigy: one with exceptional talents
The evening passed quickly, and Green pulled out the fluffy blankets from the dryer and draped them over the sofas. He then started packing food and clothes and prepared to stop by the Pokemart to stock up on potions and prepare for the trip up the mountain the next day.
On his way, Green pondered the chances of Gold's victory. Red had the overwhelming advantage in experience, but then again Gold's whole prodigiousness lay in his ability to use unconventional techniques to surprise the opponent.
879. fidelity: strict faithfulness to vows or promises; exact correspondence with fact
The skies were darkening rapidly, and one by one, the street lamps flickered on. As Green rounded the corner, the familiar neon blue lights of the Pokemart appeared. The sliding doors hummed as he stepped in, and the cashier looked up and waved.
Green waved back and picked up a basket and swept a shelf of hyper potions into his basket. He then scooped up a couple full heals and plopped the basket on the check-out counter. Although most battlers liked to stock up on full restores, he personally preferred hyper potions since they were a good deal cheaper.
The cashier looked at the basket, and then punched in the sum. "That will be 22 hyper potions and 7 full heals, would you like anything else?"
Green marveled at the fidelity with which the cashier counted the potions. "Nope."
She dumped the potions into two plastic bags. "Do you have your gym leader ID with you?"
880. primeval: relating to the beginning of the first world ages
Green rummaged through his pockets and pulled out his wallet. He handed over the card, grimacing at his picture. He was usually ok with taking pictures, being fairly photogenic, but somehow his pictures never turned out quite right in ID cards. In this particular photo he was wearing the primeval sweater Gramps had gotten him for his birthday, and had quite the forced smile.
The cashier's mouth twitched upwards. "Alright, that's a 30% discount. 21420 pokedollars please."
Green sucked in a breath and shakily handed over his credit card. He had one more week before he left for Hoenn… Maybe in Hoenn he could go around battling and build up his bank account…
