Vinnie nodded numbly, hearing the words without fully absorbing them.
"Um... I don't think it'd make anything better if you tried t'talk him into..." forgiving him? Somehow, the Venusaur couldn't force the words out his mouth. Instead, he swallowed hard and continued, "I broke it, so... I don't think anything else would really work."
It was the Charizard's loyalty to Bulba's feelings that got the two of them into the state of affairs where Char practically ignored him for a year until everything was so pent up that it lead to this outburst, after all. So Bulba trying to make him see one way or another was probably just going to make things worse, rather than better.
By itself, apologies were just words, and presents were just trite bribes. But trying to think of anything that could get through to the Fire Type just kept drawing blanks. Nothing felt clear - what was he missing?
