It was clear that the reason Bulba was able to maintain the shine of his hair and sparkles was because he bathed in his own tears.
But he had noticed that little look. It was short and fleeting but it was so entirely foreign on the Charizard that of course he had noticed it. He smiled a little, and as small as it was it was far more genuine than the one he wore a few moments ago. It was all right. This was one of the things that Bulba didn't need to hear out loud.
The look exchanged outside of Char's door was another. Bulba had been planning on just doing what he said he would and go to his room, as much as he would have liked to have hovered around Char to make sure he was definitely okay and ride on the coat tails of this most recent exchange. He paused when Char did, assuming this would be where he parted ways. When this didn't happen and Char looked at him that way instead... Bulba blinked, momentarily confused because this was like a really weird role reversal or something.
He didn't mind that. Not at all. Bulba was actually very okay with this. His expression softened and he nodded. Without saying it out loud, Bulba made a change of plans. He wasn't going to hike down the hall if he could get away with staying here. Bulba moved closer, silently giving the Charizard the answer to his unspoken question.
