Personality

I have been hibernating for the winter. I have lived on this plot of land for quite a while already. I knew an old man who lived here before. But one day the man left on a big car with a group of old friends and never came back. I liked that man. He let me have fruit from his garden and was willing to harvest the berries that grew on my neck so they didn't grow too numerous or heavy. That man liked to call me by names like 'dear boy' and "Buddy". I really liked those names. I wants to hope that the old man would return even if it has already been three winters and his garden has overgrown to its current state. He was a good gardener. He would know how to get this place back to its past glory.

Something changed this spring. I woke up from my sleep and someone had cleared out many of last year's dead plants. The old man was back, I was sure of it! I rushed over to his cabin and waited behind the door patiently. The old man needed his sleep, I knew. After a couple of hours I heard footsteps from inside the cabin. The old man was awake! I let out my usual greeting to let him know I was waiting for him all these winters. The footsteps ceased. Was he not expecting me to be around? Oh, he must be so happy to hear I'm still here!

The door opened slowly and... I was shocked to see a new face. The stranger looked frightened when he saw me and immediately closed to door. The old man was not back still..? Well, I wasn't going to mind allowing a new person to live here. After all, the old man always allowed Pokémon and people alike to stay with him for as long as they would wish. Still, I wanted to let the new human know I meant no harm. The human kept uttering words I had never heard before. "What the... something?" and "How in... something..?" Oh, he must be so scared. I gently poked my face on the door to knock and made the sweetest greeting I knew how to make, a sounds like a little bird. Still, the human didn't come out for a couple more hours and eventually I decided to retreat. I wanted to give him space so he would notice he needn't be scared.

When he eventually came out, I approached him carefully with my neck lowered so I wouldn't look as big. I think he understands I don't wish to hurt him and allows me to stay around. I do think he's still scared, though...

It seems he has a new name for me, a name I had never heard before. "Abomination". I think I like it. It sounds regal.

Update: Over the years Virna has grown to not mind Abe's presence. Sure, Abe is a big and intimidating creature but Virna can see Abe isn't dangerous. Probably. As long as Abe doesn't get startled by anything. Virna is wary of Abe but doesn't try to get rid of him or anything.

Extras:

❅ Like all Tropius, Abe really likes fruit of all kinds. He has no specific favourites and really doesn't dislike any either!

❅ Understands human speech quite well. The old man spoke to him very kindly so Virna's way of talking confuses him a lot. He has no idea what curse words are or what they mean.
