The Second Ideal

[solveforn]

[Lately, N can be seen at the Chaos Gate, warping in an out regularly. He appears to not be staying long in Mac Anu, and if he is, it is to simply resupply before he goes to a new area.

He hasn't been speaking to anyone as of late, and has not been forming a party as he visits areas. He certainly has plenty of Member Addresses at this point, so what could he be doing all by himself?

Nevertheless, he will not turn down anyone who wishes to join him on a trip to a field.]

I was born from Pokémon.

[It's a confession he rarely puts forth, since most people scoff and dismiss it. And though he had hoped to get over some of these ideas of his, they were habits and beliefs not yet broken.]

I can hear their voices because I was born from them. I exist to be their voice, and to protect them. I'm not like anyone else, who is deaf to other living creatures. I can hear them. I am perfect.

[ and apollo draws himself up in contemplation, as though seeing this individual for the first time. ]

What an arrogant thing to claim with such a straight face. [ hmmmmm, he leans back a little, almost in contemplation. ] But you know, I'm a little curious. Do you truly believe in those words that you said? Is that the impression that you believe in without a single nuance doubt?

[solveforn]

Yes.

[reified]

[ a pleased sound. ] Mm, it looks like I've found something interesting.

[solveforn]

I would assume that you are not human?

[It's not... really a question. N is already perfectly aware that this strange person is not a human.]

[reified]

Of course not. I am the sun.

[ said frankly, because apparently this explains everything. ]

[solveforn]

[Huh. That doesn't seem to surprise nor confuse N, but it does pique his interest.]

I was of the impression that Amaterasu was the Goddess of the Sun.

[reified]

Amaterasu is... also the sun. [ he can say it, so it's the undeniable truth. ] But it doesn't change the fact that I'm still the sun. Amaterasu being the sun or not does not have any bearing on what I am.

[solveforn]

...Fascinating. Do you have a name for yourself, as Amaterasu does?

I would like to come to know you.

[reified]

I am Apollo. [ and he scrutinizes you for a second. ]

And I do think I will speak with you again. The difference you sport from others is interesting, at the very least.

[solveforn]

I will remember that, Apollo.

I'd like us to be friends.

[reified]

[ ... heh. ] What foolish words. Can one make friends with the wind? What of the ocean?

[solveforn]

Is there a reason that it's impossible?

[N is unwavering! He befriended a dragon Pokemon that embodied the whole concept of "Ideals". He doesn't see the problem, exactly.]

I can see you here now, and speak to you. I can hear you, and you can hear me.

[reified]

... yet it does not guarantee that I will listen. [ guess who is being stubborn. ]

[solveforn]

Then I will listen to your words.

[reified]

... do as you will. [ asdlkfjalk you weirdo!! he'll just disappear in a huff.





... but consider yourself on his list of interests. he will be back to heckle you somewhere down the line, probably. you have acquired one (1) huffy sun god. ]
