Vinnie let himself lean into Bulba's touch, taking solace in it as much as he could. He could only assume Bulba meant that it was unfair that not everyone was as happy as he was, which... well, that was a good thing, right? It meant Venusaur was doing something right. The idea that any of this was unfair to Vinnie simply hadn't crossed his mind.

"I'm al'right with that," he smiled, letting the feeling of Bulba's kiss linger on his fingers like a warm afterglow.

Despite the dimensional bubbles and dips into his memory, and no matter what would happen, Vinnie wanted him to know, "No matter what you've seen... I don't regret this. I'd never regret you. Okay?"
