Terra didn't immediately respond, choosing to maintain silence as he held Shiranui close to his heart, as he recollected himself from bearing a part of it to the boy. A minute passed like this, before he heaved a great big *Sigh* , looking back at you with not his usual stoicism, but something more.....worn, but open.
"Yes. Dewford is my home. *Smiles*….He he....Mama and Papa said same thing. Meet him a few times. Help and taught Shiranui and me many things. How to train and fight right and....rightly. Shiranui's kin's and other Pokémon potential. How to make regiments and good diets, how to find berries and other......edible food in the wild. ..….And lots and lots of other stuff."
….
"One day....he offered for me to join his Gym. Said we had a lot of potential. Wanted to do more to grow it himself, and make me 'one fine Fighting Trainer that can compete with the best! *Shakes his head* I refused. Never challenged him too. *Shoulder Shrugs* Wasn't interested in League challenge, or becoming a.....professional trainer. I just wanted to get....stronger. Better. Make and find my own way. In the world....and in life."
"Had to leave home to do that. Explore Hoen, and continue training and growing. Couldn't find my purpose at home *Eyes glance of to the side*…didn't think I could be a good merchant too. Not like Mama or Papa."
He *sighs* again at this point, a small frown tugging at his lips.
"They....didn't like that when I told them plan. Didn't like it when I refused Brawly's offer too. They were disappointed, sad....and scared. Knew I was....dumb, and wanted me close to protect me. To...not lose me. ….But they understood. Accepted my.....decision, and gave me their blessing. *Beat*…And a lot of supplies, cloths, and Poke too. That too."
At this point, the rugged wanderer blinks, then shakes his, giving Nathan a apologetic and slightly Mareepish look.
"...Sorry. Talk too much about myself when I.....recall my memories. Or....conversation is about home."
…
Terra looked visibly shocked and appalled at the revelation (Think Asgore's face when he first sees [PLAYER NAME]) that the clever and nice trainer he knew went through much the same type of bullying as he. Quick than you would expect from a lumbering giant like him, he reached over and placed a hand on their shoulder, looking them dead in eyes, his own containing nothing but the deepest sympathy and understanding.
"....Don't be ashamed for being different. For being smart and clever, for finding your own way. For being you. Ever. You will only hurt yourself if you are. *Looks...melancholy* Took me a......long time to learn that. No.....be proud. Of who you are, and how far you have come. *Smiles* Be happy you have a great partner like Gallade too. Take heart from him, for he takes heart from you. *Beat, then Chuckles* We are very much alike. Never thought I find someone like me. Its strange. …Sad too. ...But not bad. Not at all."
As for the apology, he just waves it off, simply saying "No need. You deserved to know. ….Fells......nice sharing that story with you now, too. Can breath easier, like when I stop lifting Basteele after working out…."
He does sport a rather.....impressively feral and toothy grin when you described the fate of one of those cursed demons, though, looking both highly menacing and supremely pleased/satisfied.
"Good. It deserves that, and worse. *Nods* Very nice, Nathan. Will give you and Rapidash gifts for doing that later."
Yikes! When Terra's scary, he doesn't do it by half, or even four fifths, even unintentionally!
…
"....*Shakes head* Sad. Spirits of dead and Ghost should find rest or peace. Not suffer or be.....made evil because others. *Scowls* Not right to use them as weapons. Not right at all."
...
"...True. Very true. ...Wish it more personalities in it were good and right, though. Make world better place......for people like use. *Shakes his head* Don't be. What happened, happened. Only thing I can do is...…defeat that.....fear, and move on. Have been successful doing that.....*Coughs* …mostly."
…
Uh oh. That tone sound just like his own whenever he got in trouble/was about to. This can't be good.
"....What is it? Is it......bad?"
"Yes. Dewford is my home. *Smiles*….He he....Mama and Papa said same thing. Meet him a few times. Help and taught Shiranui and me many things. How to train and fight right and....rightly. Shiranui's kin's and other Pokémon potential. How to make regiments and good diets, how to find berries and other......edible food in the wild. ..….And lots and lots of other stuff."

Like the wind, I come and go as I please... but I am always there to provide a comforting breeze.
