Red almost, almost doesn’t want to leave on his pokémon journey, because it is summer, and summer is the only real time he can spend with Father – Father is too busy during the rest of the year, because he is the Leader of the Elite Four.

But Father is excited, and his new Bulbasaur is cute, and Poli hops into a poke ball willingly, and he supposes that he has to leave home someday. He can’t stay forever.

At the door, father kisses him on the cheek, and he feels daring, so he returns the kiss, and a strange flutter manifests in his stomach as their lips touch.

It feels so right that he wants to do it again, but Father is looking at him strangely, so he just grins and says he’ll come home soon, and then runs off to the wilderness awaiting him, just outside of Pallet Town.

And Lance touches a finger to his lips, and frowns.
