Well, who else would he talk to? I already asked Daisy and his mom, and they didn't have a clue where he might have gotten to by now! Apparently it's been a few hours since anyone saw him. What a bummer! But if you really don't know where RED is, I guess I can always ask Gramps.

[typeless]

Then ask your grandfather. It's not like I can keep touch with him. [Pokegears/navs/cell phones are for TRAINERS. Which she will be very soon. She has her sights set on that Squirtle. SHE WILL SURPASS BOTH OF YOU.]

[notthaticare]

[ We are Gen I and we do not understand this Pokégear of which you speak. ]

Hey now, take it easy! I just thought he might have come to see you, is all! But then again, I guess RED hasn't been too chatty lately when I've talked to him!

[ Their conversations are getting steadily more one-sided every time they meet, and even if Green won't admit it to himself, the silence is starting to creep him out. ]

[typeless]

Maybe you should try being kind. [and less of an attention whore]

Or less mean. Maybe quieter? [because man, you're loud]

[notthaticare]

What's that supposed to mean!? I'm not mean to RED! I've even helped him out plenty of times! He'd never have gotten this far without my advice! You just don't know what you're talking about.

[ Well, actually, Green, there was that one time at Pokémon Tower you were sort of a flippant asshole to RED about the deceased pokémon, even though he was pretty clearly shaken up over it. Then there was that time you ambushed him at Silph Co. for a battle, even though he was covered in bruises and your team was strong enough to help fight the Rockets. And there were all those times you called him a loser and belittled his accomplishments and were just generally sort of a douche.

...But none of that probably has anything to do with why he refuses to talk to you. Definitely not. Right? ]

Humph! Rivals are supposed to battle each other to get stronger! And for your information, I'm not even being loud—you're probably just mad that I interrupted your dumb book!

[typeless]

What advice? [All of that probably adds up to Red disliking you.]

You're yelling. It's loud. [Captain obvious, but it's not like Green really notices.]

[notthaticare]

I've told RED all kinds of stuff! Like where to find different kinds of Pokémon, and how to get to tricky places like Pokémon League, and advice on meeting people who could help him out! And between you and me, he needs all the help he can get!

[ Brag brag brag. Not that Green will ever be the one helping RED out, when it comes down to it. ]

And if it really bothers you so much, I guess I could tone my voice down a bit. [ Smirk. ] Although, if a little yelling is enough to bother you, you can forget about being a Pokémon trainer! Battles get pretty intense!

[typeless]

... Everybody knows that.

It's only your yelling. You're annoying. [Straight to the point, as always.]

[notthaticare]

Hate to say it, but you're a hundred percent wrong there, Leaf! Most trainers just wander around and never get anything done because they don't know where to go! If RED didn't have me pushing him in the right direction all the time, he'd probably get lost in a minute!

[ In his defense, Green is GEN I, back before NPCs could be bothered to hold your hand and tell you what you needed to do next. ]

Besides, what do you know? I'm going to be the next Champion, and then we'll say who's the one calling names!

[typeless]

So? Even if you are Champion, I'll beat you. [Matter of fact!]

[notthaticare]

No way! Nobody beats me, pal! Except for RED, but that's why I'm looking for him now—we have a score to settle!

[typeless]

I will beat both of you. Just because I start later than you doesn't mean anything.

[notthaticare]

Good luck, then! Sounds like you're aiming for the top! I'll be waiting for you there, but don't count on coming away with a victory!

[typeless]

I am counting on it! [Look, you get a yell AND a grin]

[notthaticare]

Ha! Let's see it happen, then! Smell ya later, LEAF!

[ AND WE ARE SMUGLY TAKING OUR LEAVE, PROBABLY LAUGHING AT YOU THE WHOLE TIME

BECAUSE WE'RE GREEN ]
