[Five minutes after that's accidentally posted to the network, a proper text follows.]
oh shit ignore that last post, that wasn't supposed to go public
...actually, tell me about the things you want to do here
i need more shit on my to do list
are there any awesome places to see or anything like that?
[It's not surprising that Mondo's out training on the outskirts of the city. What is surprising is that he isn't fighting his Pokémon today. He's ditched the usual coat today and if one looks closely, they can see a massive bruise over his shoulders and leading down toward his back. That might be from fighting his Pokémon. Maybe. But that's not what he's doing today - today he's got his Pokémon out, situated in teams of two facing off against each other.]
Alright, we're gonna practice double battling today. Ryder! Quit trying to punch Pierce, he's your partner!
[The Scrafty shoots him a dirty look, but she knocks it off. At least until Mondo's back is turned, then she socks the Lucario in the gut and knocks him over.]
Lex, Tory! If I see the two of you biting at each other again I swear I'm gonna stick you in the fucking PC and never let you see the light of day again! You got that?
[The Sharpedo and Deino pull faces once his back is turned, but at least they seem to be listening.]
Alright, on my mark... go!
[...This can only end well.]

well on the plus side?
it's all downhill from there. downhill as in easy, i mean.
not as in it gets worse, because it gets better from there but it also gets less pants-shittingly terrifying.
like i swear that is the hardest thing about dating. if you can get past that first step, you can take on the world, pretty much.
but hmm... aside from changing your outlook, i am not really sure how to help with the yelling thing. i had the opposite problem, myself.
deep breaths, maybe?
or ask out girls that you know as friends first? because they would at least understand why you are yelling and probably be more patient with you than a girl who you barely know.

i think i can handle that at least!!
i'm glad to hear that it'll get easier though
i mean i've never dated so i have no idea what to expect
but at least it'll get easier!

sure you can watch movies or read books about it but it's not really the same as actually doing it.
but trust me, it's a lot of fun when you find the right person to share it with. :)
