<Okay, you don't have to talk about it> Kalina told her, picking the Pokemon up once it's wrists were bandaged. <But there's more to life than death. Trust me, I know there's more to life, like raising a family.>

<I have no family> it cried, tear-stained cheeks raw from crying so much. <Sometimes death only seems like the only way out!> Letting out a strangled cry, it grabbed her shirt with both paws and buried it's face in the soft cloth.
From it's perch atop her head, Spoink opened an eye slowly. <Noise...> it murmured, drifting back to sleep.

<Hey, relax> Kalina told the Clefairy, stroking it's head. <If you want, my Pokemon could be your family. And I could be your mommy. Does that sound good?>

The pokemon shook it's head slowly. <I don't need family. I can handle things on my own...> It continued to sob, sinking even farther into Kalina's arms.

<Well then, how about a friend?> Kalina asked. <Someone to just talk to you and support you?>

It shook its head again. <I've never had a friend> it managed to squeak between sobs. <I wouldn't even know how to be a decent friend>

<That doesn't stop you from trying> Kalina said to the Clefairy. <Friends are kind to each other, help each other. With a strong enough bond of friendship, they can even help others to get over very difficult problems.>

Clefairy managed a weak smile, face still buried in Kalina's shirt. <M-maybe. I guess it wouldn't hurt to give it a shot...> It let go of her, glancing at her face for the first time. A few tears escaped it's eyes, but it kept smiling.

<See?> Kalina asked. <You're doing well already.> Giving an incredibly large and welcoming smile, Kalina was pleased with how the Clefairy was doing already.

It wiped away it's tears with it's paws, smearing the black eyeliner that it always wore. It was a messy sight - light pink, tear-matted fur, streaked with greasy black eyeliner in random patches. It didn't seem to notice, and sniffed loudly. <You're sure about this... Life has always been cruel...>

<Of course I'm sure> Kalina said with a smile, cleaning up the messy patches of eye liner with her sleeve. <Besides, you can make a lot of friends when you're with me, and maybe you'll eventually come to see us as a family.>

Clefairy stiffened. <That sounds scary...> it murmured, tears beginning to well up in it's eyes once more. Lunging for Kalina's arm, it latched on tightly. <I might die...>

<It's alright> Kalina said in a comforting tone. <You won't be hurt by us. We'll take good care of you, trust me.> She gave the Clefairy a gentle kiss on the head, smiling.

It shuddered from her touch - it wasn't used to such tenderness. <But I cant trust you... You'll just abandon me...> Ripping off it's bandages, it stared intently at the slashes on it's arm. The urge to cut was rising.

<I'll never abandon you> Kalina told her, holding her a little tighter. <Please don't cut yourself again. I don't like it when you do that. It creeps me out.> Giving her another kiss, she said <Just look into my eyes and tell me what kind of emotions you see.> Her eyes were sparkling with happiness and love right now, so hopefully this would help the Clefairy realise she was telling the truth.

Love was foreign to Clefairy. It refused to look at Kalina, buried in it's seemingly inescapable sorrow. Although it had stopped crying, it still wanted to cut itself, and produced a razor blade from out of thin air. <Life isn't worth it...>
ooc - rofl this is fun.

Taking the razor away from Clefairy, Kalina began to cry, saddened that the Clefairy wanted to do this. <Please...don't cut yourself> she said, her eyes glowing with the same happiness and love from before. She then placed a gentle hand on the Pokemon's cheek, turning it's face to look at Kalina. <Life is worth it. Trust me.>

Clefairy shrugged, eyes darting around. It couldn't bring itself to look at Kalina, suddenly ashamed of it's actions. <I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm sorry. I just get so depressed... Maybe I should come with you...> it's trembling voice was barely above a whisper.

<It's alright, you've done nothing to be ashamed of. And we can help your depression as well. All you have to do is tap the button on this Pokeball.> She held out her last Pokeball, smiling at the Clefairy. <Do you have a name?> she asked.

It shook it's head. <I don't. Nobody ever cared enough to give me one...> Reaching forward, it poked the button curiously with one of it's paws, and was promptly sucked inside. Clefairy was captured!
