#ooc: I dunno. Jason was pushy. but I guess that mixed with Sammy's determination???

[battle-bond-gone-wrong]

[Sparks crouched down in an attacking stance in front of Jason, who was attempting to do the same.]

Alright, you wanna stand like this, like this, right?

Mhm...!

Cool, now you wanna feel the power running through your body! You have to REALLY feel it! You have to charge up to super-duper full power!

Grrgh-!

When you know you have enough, you have to let it out, in one huge burst! Like BA-BA-BA-BAAAANG!!! And cracka-BOOM! And a good ol' flash-POW for good measure!

[To demonstrate his point, Spark's body crackled with electricity, before a bolt of lightning fell from the clouds above them, striking himself with an ear-splitting Thunder.]

Samu-ROOOOT!

Sparks, do you mind telling me WHAT IN THE NAME OF THE UNIVERSES you were trying to do to Jason?!

Yeah, Mr. Sparks. It looks really fun! And your attack was so cool, too!

W-Well, I- um... Er...

I, uh... Hey, this is Sammy's fault for saying that he's basically a Pokemon now!

How does your tomfoolery fall on me?! I've been referring to him as a damn-near wild Pokemon for months now, and he's been called that even longer!

See? You never said that he can't learn moves! And I wanted to teach him Thunder, the same way he taught me Lightning Blade!

Sparks, you idiot...

Why would I have to say outright that he can't learn moves? Above all else, beyond anything else, he's still a HUMAN, Sparks. And he would share a Samurott's mindset, if nothing else! I have no way to learn Electric-type moves, and he wouldn't by proxy!

He's able to do that cool glowey thing with me... Maybe it's not you-specific.

Not helping, Lexi.

See, New Girl gets it! If it applies to him, why not us?!

Nope. I'm not having this. I'm not speaking to the same Jolteon that caused Jason- No, caused ALL of us to get embarrassed by Elesa. SEVERAL TIMES, mind you.

And we kept spinning the block, better than you ever could! And it wasn't like I was benched each and every time~!

Mr. Fluffy, the BABY, got more action than you could ever dream of!

And you weren't replaced by Cyclone during the battle with Clay?

I'm sorry, who?... OHH, you meant the Swoobat.

Dude, Driver carried that fight, NONE of us were needed.

I was!

Did that human mind of yours make you a bumbling fool?

Brother in Mew, you were a "If crap hits the fan" 'Mon at BEST, in that battle!

And I was THERE! Unlike YOU!

[The pair continued to bicker like an angry couple for about an hour, with Lexi's occasional failed attempts to break it up.]
