[Keeping Up With the Next Generation: An All-Purpose Guide to All That Stuff Those Kids From Other Regions Keep Talking About.

That's the name of the book Kris is reading in some weird and strangely specific library. Some other hits she sees in the shelves are How (Not) to Deal With Meddling Kids in Caps, It's Not All Black and White, The Series of Guys That Cramped My Style And Messed With My Social Life, and Hot Enemy Problems: Part 1.

But it's a large library. A huge library. The possibilities are endless... and very specifically tailored to everyone's needs.]

[Oh screw it

Round one of gay chicken: go!]

dances

[illegalteendad]

[is it really gay chicken if they're already kissing

does this mean the one that breaks it first is the one that's the loser

that's what it sounds like and this is NOT THE GAME YOU WANT TO WIN, GOLD

let him show off his expertise in kissing which is none you do things with lips and tongues right????]

[illegalmarriage]

[I think so? Hell if I know

dude I think you bit my tongue

whatever we can keep doing this right]

[illegalteendad]

[hey if you wanna i'm totally down with it





because i'm not losing yeah that's all

i'm gonna bite your lip if you don't give in a little]

[illegalmarriage]

[What are you doing

why are you-

forget being persistent, now he's just confused.

Is this... how kissing works...?

trial and error- this is a competition not something he's actually enjoying

right?

-Of course that's right what the hell--]

[illegalteendad]

[right right there's no way either of them would enjoy it

that would mean things and they don't mean anything like that to each other at alllll

this is a battle of dominance

a show of strength!!!

let gold show you his strength silver hope there's not any books pressing into your back on the way down to the table-----]

[illegalmarriage]

[Hell no, Gold

you are the only one that is being pressed onto a table

the only one]

[aintseennothin]

[That sound? That's the sound of a stack of books being dropped on the floor in shock



Also rage



Silent, seething rage

Yellow's glare could melt mortar]

[illegalteendad]

[oh hell no don't you dare

he is not being pressed against the ta




did you hear something]

1/2

[illegalmarriage]

[Yes he damn well--

wait

what the hell was-]

[illegalmarriage]

[aintseennothin]

[Well! She's over and at their side a lot faster than those little short legs would seemingly go. And she's shoving Gold away from Silver.]

He's too good for you! Get out of here! Before I pluck your teeth out, one by one!!

[illegalteendad]

[shit shit shit nope he's noping out of here bye silver

BUT NOT WITHOUT A CALL BACK

sorry he's grinning being caught by yellow was not at the top of his most wanted list but holy shit he cannot resist]

Looks like we'll have to continue our little 'chat' later, Silv!

[illegalmarriage]

Yellow-

[This is going downhill quickly.

Gold's remark only barely registers. No. Yellow, it's okay, they were just-

they were just what?

-Doesn't matter. He heads over and reaches to- to try to grab and hold hands. Not pushing her away, not getting between them, just trying to get her attention and make her take it easy.]

[aintseennothin]

[Yellow intended to grab a book and throw it at him, as she's not quite mad enough to forget her last promise to Silver, but GOD DAMN IT.

She instead grips Silver's hands hard enough to convey her anger at him.]

He's scum! You could date literally anyone else and I don't care but why him?? He can't keep his eyes and hands off of Blue, spent so much effort trying to touch me when he thought I wasn't me-me, he's some filthy horn dog and worst of all, he wants to take you away from us!!

1/3

[illegalmarriage]

[Yellow that wasn't what they- that's not- they were just--]

[illegalmarriage]

[...Man, he.

He really fucked up, didn't he.

Dammit.]

[illegalmarriage]

[Yellow.]

He's not taking me away from you.

[He's not taking him away from his family.]

[aintseennothin]

Good! Because that's all he wants, you know, he'll never let you stay with us!

[She lessens her grip on his fingers, but more securely holds his hands.]

That con artist! I'm going to put itching powder in his shoes! Tell his Pokémon to eat his hat!!

[Since you told her she can't do anything severe - she'd much rather leave toxic spikes in his shoes or get a wild Pokémon to try and eat him altogether.]

[illegalmarriage]

Stop it, Yellow. I'm just as responsible for that as he is. [...If not, moreso. He's the one that started that, wasn't he?

What were they even talking about before that?

You're pretty bad at being bad, aren't you?]

[aintseennothin]

I know you are, but I love you, he's just some street urchin!

[illegalmarriage]

I know. I was gonna pick a fight with him.

[He's actually not sure how that even happened instead or where that even-

bad decision dinosaur]

[aintseennothin]

Come on!

[She paps Silver's face!]

You're too good for him! You deserve someone that's going to do good for you not someone who's inevitably going to force you through something painful.

[illegalmarriage]

That's exactly what he's doing. I just happen to be one of the bad guys. [So he is doing good for him, just-]

He's just a- [f...]

...He's my enemy, first and foremost. I know that.

[aintseennothin]

It's not about "good guys" or "bad guys" that's so black and white.

[HUFF HUFF]

Normal people aren't saints either. There's manipulation and control and violence without Team Rocket, the only difference is that we're organized.
