Anonymous asked;; Do you even still love Chandelure anymore? Or is he just baggage you feel like you must watch over? 

Verse;; Searching For Truth (Main Verse Emmet)

“I... am Emmet. Chandelure is part of the family that I have chosen. I know I am not the best one to care for him, nor am I the person who should be around. If something had to happen, it should have been me. Never my infinitely kind brother whose dreams could help make the world a better place. I am just a mirror. I show the truth. I mirror Ingo’s face. But I am not made of dreams. I do not have Ingo’s compassionate voice.”

“I know I am wrong to be here when Ingo is not, but I love my family, and will love them till the end of the time. I have to take care of the Battle Subway on my own and Ingo’s pokemon only have me.”

Emmet exhaled deeply as he shrugged.

“I am not the best. We know. But they are not baggage to me. They are my family. I know I cannot spend as much time with them as before, not with everything going on. I had to... delegate my time for some other things. I had to-... Our house looks so empty and I know I can’t give them the best as they deserve. I know Ingo would have handled things much better than me.”

“But they are my family. I love them. I hope that a day will come when I can make it up to them for all the time we lost. For all the time they lost with Ingo.”

Verse;; For the people who are still alive (Old Gym Leader Emmet)

“We have a rocky relationship, that’s real. We do not gel along, not after I have forsaken Ingo and accepted that he was just a curse I had to accept and move on from.”

“Chandelure was... his baby, so to say. I think their bond was extraordinary, even though I think Ingo should burn in hell and is an overall terrible person. You do not see how awful and evil people can be when you grow up with them and trust them with your life, you know. It took me nearly dying to realize the truth in front of me. Yet, I still stand firm that Ingo loved Chandelure and their bond was closest to a father-child’s than simply trainer-pokemon’s.”

“Even evil people love. I hate it, since at the end, he abandoned Chandelure like he abandoned me, but...”

“Chandelure is the only indication that Ingo was human. In a way, Chandelure is the only reminder that the person I trusted once was not just a traitor, just a murderer. So... Chandelure is dear to me. As both a pokemon and a precious reminder that I had a family once.”

“I... I do not believe in love and family. I believe in kindness. I believe in passion and triumph. But I think those wonderful concepts are tainted forever for me. If love existed, truly, I do not think Ingo would have made me care for him only to sell me out to the enemy, and then go away while I was fighting for my life. If family existed, I would still have a brother.”

“So, no... I do not love Chandelure. I might use the word to calm him and convey that I care for him, but I do not believe it.”

“He... He is a thorn in my side most of the time! I do consider getting rid of him like I gave away all the other pokemon Ingo kept in his team. But still... He... He is the only reason I can believe in myself. When I look at Chandelure, I can at least see the situation was complex, that Ingo was capable of love. That I was not a fool to think he was family once. That I was not stupid.”

“The only baggage I have to watch over is everything I am and everything I feel. I wish I could wipe this memory clear. I wish I was not... Emmet anymore. I have a wonderful gym. I have great achievements. But I still feel my younger self would be very disappointed in me.”

“And I guess I am very disappointed in myself, too.”
