[It's probably a good thing they weren't talking over a phone, because Lucas' hand would surely be shaking at this point. Perhaps Red can feel a ripple in his thought patterns. Either way, the boy is obviously trying not to cry at this point, a bittersweet smile forming as he tries to focus on the question.]
...yeah. Yeah, they've been doing fine! Jolteon and Boney get on really well together! The bug... well, he's been a little hard to keep an eye on, but he's safe.
Sorry- I didn't warn you about him. [ Dribbling acid, eating veggies and leaves... it wasn't exactly a thought at the time. ] Do you want me to-- are you busy? I can come and pick them up now.
Sure, where's closest to you? [ Hey, plenty of people were out and about; there was nothing funny about that. ] I'm at the bridge closest to the city centre, but I head in whatever direction you're in.
[It was a landmark they could use after all, and Lucas wasn't too far away. Sometime soon, Red will see the boy hurrying over, searching with some degree of determination. Red... where was Red...?
[ With that eager decision, waiting at the bridge it is. Just as long as it's the same bridge they're both thinking of!!
...Which it is, fortunately enough, Red removing his arms off from the stone at the sound of Lucas's voice to turn his way. It wasn't just him either--perhaps one Boney? But definitely a little energetic yellow guy who barks out a noise, a mixture of a greeting and a whine, of joy and relief
and he's running over on four quick feet before anyone can tell him to do otherwise, knocking his paws all over Red's trousers to get him to bend down to his level. ]
Hey, hey-- I missed you too. [ The fur is glowing soft white but Red doesn't move away, letting the pokémon rub his head against his knee and scent as he pleases. ] Did you have fun with them? Lucas is a good guy.
[ Sorry, just a few words to his friend there, before raising his chin to acknowledge Lucas. And if he hasn't begun to make his way over, there's a hand Red lifts and waves for him to. Come on. ] Hey!

Date: 2015-10-12 06:14 pm (UTC)It's okay. Boney and Jolteon helped to keep a good eye on him, even if he did get kind of carried away sometimes...
[Trying to keep him away from their food stock was probably the worst incident for the poor boy. And as for that question?]
Oh! I'm... no, I'm not busy.
[He'd evacuated his house temporarily but let's focus on one thing at a time.]
I'm not home though... maybe we should meet somewhere else.

Red! It... it really is you...
