Goodnight (yup, definitely using this one again)
Nathan takes the Neverstone, then starts massaging his forehead.
"Thanks..."
...
...
"...just...give us some space for now...got a lot to think about..."
He's back to that 'bearing the weight of the world' feeling from earlier, and he, Calam, and Kirlia are quick to leave the room.
What could have ended in complete disaster for Ventus somehow turned out much better than anticipated for him almost by pure chance. The pure shock value of realizing Ventus has lived a less than desirable life was enough to stun most of Nathan's anger into submission. Lucky, lucky him.
Nathan stops by the PC and swaps out the Combee and the empty party slot for Porygon2, Swiftfire, and Grid. And then it's time for a little training before the day ends! Specifically, for Porygon2 (Conversion practice, still completely random, unfortunately. Maybe with the second evolution, it could finally proceed to stage two, a random type from just its known movepool, soon, though...), Kirlia, and Grid. Nathan spends the training time making sure Swiftfire is getting all the thanks she deserves for playing her part today. It was good to know he could definitely rely on her even if he had to push her to her very limits on a rare occasion such as this one. She'd make a fine, reliable, and powerful Rapidash one day, he could tell.
Thinking about it, he might just take it a little easier tomorrow. He wasn't super busy nor feeling incredibly motivated right now, to be frank...he could maybe get Shiva's help with evolving Porygon2 tomorrow...and then there's her upcoming gym battle...wait...gym battle? Huh...it hadn't really sunk in that she was going to be participating in the gym challenge until now...she really was serious about getting stronger, wasn't she? Heh...shame Chuckles was so intimidating and, to be blunt about it, ruthless. But Shiva wasn't currently super well equipped for fighting ghosts anyways, so challenging that gym would probably have been discouraging in more than one way for her...he'd have to mention to her that Creshire's League technically only needs 6 badges if you intend to challenge the Elite 4, though. Otherwise she might start worrying about facing Chuckles if she decides to take the challenge a step further for some reason...
Well, that's all stuff for tomorrow. For now, he had to wrap up today. Back in his room, he's got Kirlia, Calam, and Orthros out. Calam and Orthros are munching on some meat. And Nathan's sitting on the bed with Kirlia, with his journal open, the section for Creshire's history bookmarked so he can flip back to it quickly...Nathan's rereading the two sets of messages over and over, trying to discern a little more meaning from them...he'd recorded the second set of messages on the very last page of his journal, and made no written comments on it either...
Nathan sighs and closes the journal, then lays down on the bed. He's stumped. He knows Kirlia's the supposed key to freeing Mesprit, but he doesn't know what the message means by 'unselfish love.' And this choice that he apparently has...it's not very clear what exactly it's talking about...he needs to figure this out before whatever this 'disaster of stone' is gets out of hand, though...
"Well, I guess today wasn't so bad in the long run, Kirlia. Made a new friend, made a surprising discovery...got that Neverstone, so you can evolve into a Gardevoir without sacrificing the chance to make you a Gallade...we really did well today, didn't we? Just...gotta readjust to Ventus's antics...again...and figure out what the heck these messages are trying to tell us..."
