You...
You have no idea what weight been lifted off of my shoulders, Sensei. Your words alone have made me far happier than I have been in a long time. They ring true as always, and I'm sorry that I managed to forget the impact you had on me.
Truly...sorry...
But! But, your offer...I'm not quite sure about it, to be perfectly honest. While one of the greatest offers I'm sure to receive in my life, it's...well, I just want to know if it would mean that I would have to leave behind my Brotherhood as well as the group of Pokemon around me. For instance, Typhlosion's err...former protege has gifted me a place to stay here, and I would certainly like to not turn her down after she defeated me.
Do you think I would be required all day at the dojo to become a Master? I know the tests and such you went through to become you, Sensei, but I would wish for some time to myself every now and then to mingle among the crowds.
If I can do that, then yes, I will most certainly become a Master under you.
>>12152275Brothers?
My... I am like a brother to you? Even despite the fact that I chiseled you every moment I got, you think that? And you...never hated me, despite that?
This is...great news to me, my riv--err, Typhlosion...
I admittedly...think my obsession with you and becoming stronger than you did indeed become a bit...obsessive.
Well then, I'm glad.
Glad that I can be your friend once more.
Though, don't think that this means that I still don't consider you my rival in combat!
Only you could be my rival in that, after all.
>>12152288You would wish for me...to become a Master?
I do not want to let you down, student. If that's what you would want, then perhaps I should consider it even more strongly.
Good god the size of this response
