they don't often get days like this. especially not now, with both of their avatarships looming over them like unpleasant memories that are better left unchecked. but ever since the events of that battle, jayden's new avatar powers have begun to stabilize. at least for a little bit — enough, at least, that he can take a reprieve from his endless stream of medical check-ups, work, and other such activities to make time for the one person that has always stayed by his side. no matter what.

[break][break] "ptichka," he greets the other warmly, tugging on his gloves.

[break][break] the winter weather does nothing to his freezing body, but it is - at least - to keep up appearances as they walk through the bay. the admin offers out an arm for the other.

[break][break] "are you ready?"

[break][break] to try to have one moment of escape, of reprieve, in the neverending chaos that was their lives.

[break][break] they were going christmas tree shopping.

It has been far too long since they were provided the chance to just be. It is something Fern has sorely missed, even though they know it cannot be helped. Still, it makes them wish that they could snatch up jayden cross and steal him away. To anywhere, so long as it is somewhere else.[break][break]
But no, they must sadly accept domestic outings for the time being. How sad - granted, Fern is pleased to have Jayden all to themself no matter the setting or situation.[break][break]
Though he's unaffected by the chill, it draws a bodily shiver from Fern and they are admittedly quite glad for the layers they piled on under their jacket. "Ready as ever, duck." they chime merrily.[break][break]
He is cold too, but that doesn't stop them from twining their arms together and leaning close as they begin the trek toward the tree farm.[break][break]
"We have to make sure we find an extra fluffy one," they declare with great certainty.

"an extra fluffy one?" jayden echoes.

[break][break] admittingly, he does not know much about christmas tree shopping. he himself has never had the interest for it. in years past, he has always bought the simplest and most economical tree of his choosing. this year, because he spends it with fern, however he has made sure to do his research. to see the different types of trees that exist - cedar, pine, spruce.

[break][break] none of the books had said fluffy.

[break][break] his nose wrinkles as he tries to consider a fluffy tree in their home. what would that even look like?

“Yep!” they confirm brightly, arms stretching out to indicate big. “We don’t want it to be a sad, skinny tree, y’know?”[break][break]
The ornaments would totally overpower it then. And the last thing Fern wants is for an encumbered looking Christmas tree that droops in the middle of the living room.[break][break]
“I used to do this with Da every year,” they say fondly. Fondly—before they catch themself in the abrupt reminder of their father and the illusions in the Interdream mist. The pain and fear of it. They should be long over it by now— it was over a month ago.[break][break]
But all that blood lingers in their mind. Their dreams.[break][break]
Fern shakes the thought loose—refocusing on fluffy trees and the sharp scent of pine. And the fuzzy warm feelings that being here with Jayden brings.

he has no idea what they mean. small and skinny? did trees have such variety as humans and pokemon did? he supposed it was possible. as a child, his mother had always been the one to decorate their house — not, of course, that the estate had been particularly festive to begin with.

[break][break] even so, he is just happy to see their face light up. it warms his chest in a way that he can't explain, and with all the events of the last several weeks, it is something that he can find ease in.

[break][break] "tell me more," he says softly, when they bring him up. "about your da."

[break][break] they hadn't talked about it, what happened in the interdream mist. the sudden appearance of their da — or the ugly thing that the mist had conjured in representation of him.

Something in their posture stiffens up when he asks the gentle question because they are unable to skirt away from it or easily change the subject. And they would like to, they would very much like to.[break][break]

Talking about their da brings a flutter of fear to their heart. That right now while they are here, he is not okay in Stow-on-Side. Even if they know this is not the case, they fear it. They fear harm coming his way. Even more so, they fear his disappointment.[break][break]

They stay away, and only contact him from a distance, because they don’t know what he will think of what they have become. Fern was not born into this as he was.[break][break]

Rocket has always been their choice, and undoubtedly not the one their da would make for his child.[break][break]

But they can’t bear to say these things out loud. Or tell Jayden that they still smell the heavy stench of blood if they think of him for too long because the thoughts turn back to the mist. Without Tapu Koko’s presence here, they are a little less bold and uninhibited. They cannot distract themself from their own mind.[break][break]

Instead, a mild stalling tactic— “What is it that you’d like to know?” Fern forces their posture to relax, but their arm still curls tighter though his, pulling themself into a closer huddle against his side.
