[Side by side, Silver and the older man do look like they are related. Same scowl, same way of holding themselves. Same way their eyes narrow as they look across at each other. Silver's looking defiant though, even if he's dressed in a Team Rocket uniform, hat included.

The teen is crouched down, pokemon in arms. A Magnemite and behind him a tired, injured Gastly floats. The backdrop to this picture is, of course, Vatheon. But not any old part of Vatheon. It's the park, grass scorched and it looks like there's been a battle.]

Pathetic. You should abandon it, the weak have no use. [The man tossed a pokeball of his own away, not even flinching when it shattered on the ground.]

I won't be like you. [Silver's grip tightens on the pokemon, and the man - his father - steps closer, Persian following sedately.]

It's a mere tool, Silver. Easily replaceable. [Giovanni doesn't even look remorseful, only smirking when Silver shifts, looking unsure. But then the teen looks at his father with narrowed eyes.]

I won't be like you, I won't abandon everything that I have worked for. [That he's fought for - that's he's protecting.] I'll never be like you, dad.

Prove it. You are what you were born into. My son and heir. You won't ever escape that legacy.

...I will! [Silver stands up, but - it's more of a struggle than it should be - the weight of the clothing holding him down and making him hunch a bit. The man just just laughs and walks off, leaving Silver to fall into the crouch again.

If looks could kill, the dream-Giovanni would be deader than dead.]

--

[When the dream ends, Silver scrubs a hand over his face with a look of disgust and anger.] ...Bastard!

[He's not even aware that his inner struggles via dream has been broadcast.]

((OOC: Interactive part of the dream starts when Giovanni's walking away))

DREAMWALKING

[bufudine]

[Serph is there in front of Silver, offering a hand to help him up.

How much did Serph see? Who knows.]

[Dreamwalking yo]

[twiceinhabited]

[A girl walks over to Silver, holding out her hand.]

[dreamwalking aww yeah]

[geneticdiscord]

[First there is that man, for he knows who it is even with their back turned, and then it all makes sense. Everything from the boy's strange statements when they had met, to the reason he knew his name, and to the things he had refused to say.]

...you.
