[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Breeding them with steel types? “No I haven’t, but I suppose that would be a powerful combination, wouldn’t it?” he asked as he thought about it. A dragon steel type would have very little weakness’s. But then so would a Dragon Ice type. Both would be rather useful. “I have bred a few of my pokemon though. I have a Hybrid that’s part Deino and Dratini.” He explained. He was by far an expert on breeding but he was getting more aware of how things worked.

"I'm not even too sure on egg groups, to be honest... but it's something to think on," she shrugged a little rather slowly. That knowledge wasn't essential to her, and she was rather sure she could consult a book or a breeder if it ever happened to full mind any time soon. [/scrolly] |

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] “I know my Gabite and Haxorus can breed with steel types,” Lance stated, trying his best to remember if any of his other dragon types could breed with them and which ones they could breed with, “I’m not certain which steels types they can breed with though. I know Aron and I… cant remember the other one…” He was trying so hard to remember but he really couldn’t. It was almost irritating not being able to remember. For some reason he wanted to say Durant but he knew that wasn’t right. Though he was certain one of his dragons could bred with that steal type as well.

It got Nero to thinking of her own, yet she wasn't sure whether or not to suggest such a thing. However, as Lance continued speaking, Nero shook her head a bit. "I'm unsure, maybe..." she stopped a moment and scanned through the Steel Types she knew of and trying to think of what ones would resemble the two dragons given . "Steelix, Beldum, Empoleon, Shieldon, Wormadam, Bronzor, Lucario, Ferroseed... Any of those sound right?" she asked after a moment. She wasn't even sure if she was helping much... [/scrolly] |

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)]Lance listened as she listed off the pokemon, his eyes flickering a bit at the fourth one named. “Shieldon,” He stated, “I’m certain that’s the one. Though I believe they are rare to come across, if they are even alive anymore as it is.” He replied as he thought about it. Wasn’t it a fossil pokemon? He knew a few fossil pokemon were alive so there was always a chance that a few of them all were out there. “Sorry, it probably wasn’t that important anyway.” He suddenly stated, looking over at Nero and giving her a small smile.

She knew that there was a man that raised up fossils and put them in a park, but to catch there was expensive to say the least of it. She probably would have commented on the park had not Lance said it wasn't truly important. "It's fine," answered back. It reminded her of pokemon she still needed to catch anyways. "I've realized I've been focusing so much on Psychic these days that I haven't caught as many Steel types." She sighed a bit at this thinking over locations. [/scrolly] |

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] “Ha…” Lance let out a small muffled laugh as. He wasn’t sure why he found her words amusing but, “I’ve been doing the same. So focused on the dragons types I haven’t been seeking out any grass types.” It was true and he wasn’t even sure why. Perhaps just the delight of knowing that they were harder to find while the grass types weren’t so much. “My brother has collected so many of them. I’m almost jealous. I remember a long time ago it was I who caught the pokemon for… them.” he only just realized his own words. He was talking about his family and past life to Nero as if… as if he had known the man for ages. But he hadn’t known Nero that long. Not only that but she worked for him. He had to be more careful but for some reason he just… perhaps the word was comfortable. Yes. He was comfortable around Nero. Odd feel that was.

Nero truly didn't understand the term having never really felt itf or someone. However, when she stopped to think, Nero found herself jealous of all those that could lead normal lives in this time. It was simply... Shaking her head slowly, Nero drained that thought. She didn't need to work up spite in herself for no reason.
'Them'I meaning his brother and... siblings? Or maybe something else; Nero won't infer just yet. "I've never caught pokemon for others," she answered back looking calmly at the fire again before picking up a bit of wood and feeding the poor starving beast. "Though you seem like a good big brother to do so," she hummed a bit wondering what it was like to have siblings. Maybe she wouldn't have had to deal with her mother's wrath alone if she had had someone else there. "I've heard in some far off places, people start a 'pokemon journey' and are given a pokemon from a scientist before they leave home....I sometimes wonder why Era doesn't do such a thing... or rather didn't even," she stated aloud thinking over the entire thing. Most people received pokemon from family members or something of that nature in Era, yet... yet if she hadn't run into Meteor, Sol, and Luna and hadn't received their help then Nero might not have been there today... If she had simply been able to get out of the house when she was ten.....

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Lance once again found himself letting out a small laugh though this one was much more spiteful than the last. “Or appeared to be.” He corrected Nero’s comment on him possibly being a good brother. He was far from a good brother but then he rarely saw his other siblings as ‘good’ either. They had all be so selfish. Felis had left Lance to do everything while he got the perfect, stress free life. How the tables turned.
Then she began to talk about Era. Oh a subject no one should ever talk about unless expecting an ear full from Lance. How he hated the way the country was run. “Because in Era we have no freedom. The voice of the people is rarely heard and can be over run by anyone with title. Someday that will change though. Era will be free just like those far off places. Though,” Lance turned to look at Nero, “They aren’t so far off. I’ve lived in and seem them with my own eyes. All of them I’ve seen are so peaceful and full of life. One can be born with nothing and grow up to obtain the same wealth and respect as a king while others can choose to live the simple life. To pick ones own life. That is true freedom.” He almost wondered if Nero would even realize that by the mission he had given her, she too would be lending a hand to help create the new Era. Perhaps she would not realize it now, but someday she would. He knew it.

It might have been just the surprising amount of passion he had in his tone over what he appeared to believe or possibly just the fact that it seemed he had been wording that as if it were a speech, regardless, Nero found herself oddly on edge after Lance had finished speaking. Breathing in, Nero cooled again and closed her eyes. "I see," was all she answered back with. "......So that is your aspiration," she finally stated calmly. That was his goal was it not? None would speak so passionately without having a reason... something more, at least Nero thought anyways. [/scrolly] |

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Lance’s eyes widened a bit as she claimed it was his aspiration. He didn’t normally talk about his goals to others. Another screw up. But ah well. It was ok. Nero was… his friend, right? He could tell his friends these thing. “Yah, I suppose you could say it’s my goal to change Era. Get ride of the monarchy and turn it into a place where everyone is equal. Heh, not many people I can admit that to. I’m certain my own family would turn against me.” Though perhaps not for that alone. “What about you, do you have a goal or aspiration?”

She honestly couldn't see what equality would bring in Era with the economy the way it was, yet she hadn't been outside of Era and reserved the right to keep her mouth shut on matters she wasn't fully sure of. However, at the question, Nero found a strangely cool smile coming to her face. That was a circular question in itself which then led back to the questions she couldn't answer. However, instead of explaining that, she brought a finger to her lips and made a quiet 'hm' sound. "As of right now, nothing truly," she answered back closing her eyes and thinking over who else she had said that to. Well that had been a while back hadn't it? That man... what was his name... something like...Finn? "But it's the way I am, I guess," she finally hummed. "I'm not out to change the world." [/scrolly] |

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] To change the world… was that his goal? No, but close he guessed. Era was far from the world but he did want to change it, and to some it was their world. Though he hoped his change would help make people happier. It would cause some chaos and war at first as the power was stripped from those who didn’t want to give it up but by the end freedom would be achieved and the people would finally be able to form a government that revolved around them, and not a select few. Yet despite his views, he never felt much like a hero. “I suppose I’m greedy then. I want something to change and so I wish everyone to change it with me.” … And when his change was complete he would be able to shove it down his fathers throat. [/scrolly] [bg=black] |

Greedy wasn't the term there. That was one thing she could point out. Greed implied either too big a love of something that one wouldn't want to share with others. However, she wasn't sure what to call this then. Closing her eyes, she thought over the word but found her mind blank. Hm? Too much deep thinking had left her raw maybe? This was probable if not highly likely. However, another thought came to mind instead and caused her to blink. "Would you die for your cause?" she asked flatly. [/scrolly] |

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Lance was silent for a while after she asked that question. It was a question he had never thought about before. He certainly didn’t want to die for anything. He wanted to see everything through and have his own family like he had explained before. Though death wasn’t something he didn’t expect. He had betrayed and killed many people which only meant he would surely be a target of someone else someday. Perhaps not yet, but someday his crimes would be known by people. His secrets would no longer be secrets. He was certain of that. “I suppose… I would.” He answered, a tad unsure of himself. “I know I would refuse to live with my tail between my legs while others dictate the outcome of Era.” He would NOT give in and live the way others told him to. He would have his own life with his own rules and his own choices and if that meant death, then so be it.

He would then. Such was conviction then. However, Nero still lacked it and knew it a bit too well at that particular moment. "I see," she answered back keeping her voice flat as though she were simply taking in information. He's convinced his way is right; and he has conviction to follow it...She could understand that... It was all just fact and logic, yet...
Sighing a bit, Nero found a smile staining her lips before vanishing. "Just one thing then," she stated looking at him before slowly reaching to the side of her mouth and forcing herself to smile. "Don't lose what makes you 'you' in the process of achieving any sort of goal," she finished. "Or try to change anyone else for that matter." she half laughed this part trying to keep the spite out of her voice. [/scrolly] |

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Lance still looked like he was thinking over Nero’s question even after he had answered her. Though when she spoke again it caused him to look up and over at her yet her words only made him look puzzled. Once again his eyes drifted to the fire. He knew better then to allow himself to become lost. To forget his goals… which had been why Lance had asked Nero for that favour a little while ago. However, it was what followed after that, which had confused him. “Tell me,” Lance spoke in a low, thoughtful tone, “If someone steadily stands in my way, how am I to continue towards my goal without ‘changing them’?” His solution so far had been to cut them down and ride them of the world. Most lives he could care less about. Half the world could burn to his cause and he would not shed a tear for the fallen. But there were a few, select people, he would rather just… follow him than die.

Don't try and rewrite their own lives to make it fit whatever you have in mind," Nero couldn't help feeling a tinge of irritation slipping into her voice. "Convincing maybe but changing, no." She would have said more if she knew how to say it, how to say that she hadn't liked being 'changed' to fit someone else's wants and wishes, of how sh ehad no choice in such matters and knew not of it until she understood it from the outside looking in. No, Nero couldn't convey this accurately and instead ended up sounding the way she did. [/scrolly] |

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Lance found his eyes narrowing at her words, his mind slipping to one person in particular as she spoke. Convince them instead of forcing them to change. Well, he had already failed at that, had he not? And now, he knew, he was not going to be able to fix it. Nor did want to make the effort or sacrifice on his own behalf to undo parts of it. No, he was forced to change and therefore he had no reason to care if someone else was also forced to change. It was foolish. What did Nero know about change anyway? “Sometimes forcing someone to change is the only way.” Lance hissed, rather lowly, and more to convince himself than directed to Nero. With that he stood abruptly and announced “I’m leaving,” Before turning his back on her to walk away. [/scrolly] [bg=black] |
