“What’re you talkin’ about, huh? This is me askin’ you! It’s just a head’s up – thought you’d appreciate that, Volk.” Hopefully this won’t come up as a shock in a few years when they’re proud owners of a mansion. By then, it’ll be too late to protest anything. “Oh, c’mon! Give Steelix a break! He’s a big guy – he can’t help bein’ clumsy. ‘Sides – we’re workin’ on it! An apartment’s no place for him so think of this as doin’ a favor for him! He needs a bigger place and I’d definitely get one but a guy livin’ all alone like that? Gives me the creeps, dude! Just think about it!”
“ oh. you were serious. ” he guesses he shouldn’t be all that surprised, but the prospect makes him a little too elated. he sighs to himself. “ a head’s up? you make it sound like i don’t have a choice. ” as if he’d fight it. but that doesn’t mean the fake bitch Will Not Try. “ are you taking shots at me, the guy that lives alone in a huge gym ? i like my gym anyways. and i bet you wouldn’t do the dishes... ” volkner doesn’t do them himself.

“Can’t. I’m tired of doin’ all the damn work, Volk. It’s…it’s killin’ me.”
“ so i’m just not enough anymore, huh. typical top behaviour... ”
txt. i’m ending everything finally, flint. @pyrelite

“ so i’m not in my gym for a month. ” he’s sleeping. just sleeping and not in his gym. “ --- and that’s considered bad, but you’re allowed to wander around the world all the time ? unfair. ” / @mythoseek
joltage replied to your post: Guess who is back from a long long winter break….
come back to sinnoh, we need to add to our population of 7 people.
❝What kind of silly things are you implying, mister?❞
“ oh. i’m not saying you have to literally procreate to add to our population. why’s that the first thing you thought of ? i meant become the 8th person. disgusting ... ”
This is going to have a tw for depression stuff but, what is Volkner non-pills ways to feel /better/, implying that he takes some medication or prefers to spend his time walking around or w/e.
he actually never took antidepressants until recently! everything was a work in progress for him, including gaining the courage to go to a doctor. he’s a pretty shameless guy. he’s confident in a lot of areas and carries himself with the same confidence, but in reality that was one of the few things that made him nervous. but, after denial for such a long time he thought it was about time. i’m just talking from my own experience here but his antidepressants don’t help a whole lot, they just stabilize his mood more but he’s still pretty low 99% of the time! if he finally starts therapy, maybe things might be better ? he hasn’t though because, like i said, slow and steady steps
BUT ! to answer your question, i think there wasn’t really a lot of ways to feel better, there were only ways to distract himself and waste time until the day ended. that’s how it’s been since he was a kid, and that’s still pretty much what he does now. there’s nothing that makes him feel exponentially happier. he hyperfixates on his gym, mechanics, engineering, creating new things, and it’s the only thing that makes him relax.
flint is also a huuuuuuuuuge part of volkner’s life! he’s the only one he knew before he developed such severe depression, so hanging out with him is almost like back when they were kids. he’s the only one that really understands him and doesn’t fault him for how badly he’s coped with his bad mental health in the past. instead of being angry that volkner’s so quiet, flint just talks more out of the two of them instead and it’s always been something volkner appreciated. he loooooves that guy. i could go on about their relationship for days!
all in all, things that make him feel better: engineering, flint, probably a video game, a lot of music, and long ass naps. they don’t do much but they help the best anything really can. he’s still just sort of............scraping through the days unfortunately. but i would say he’s happier now than say, a few years ago when he was frustrated and refused to acknowledge his problems. because he finally has, and because he’s more honest and open about it, and because he has close friends, and now medicine, things are getting better, even if it’s getting better very, very, very slowly. ty for the ask :* !!!!

“Oh. I’m sorry, I won’t touch it then.” It wasn’t in her to question it, or take it personally– after all, she is in someone else’s domain, and if there’s anything her mother taught her, was to respect one’s home and belongings. Still, the item in question still had her attention, tilting her head a little to the side out of sheer curiosity.
“What is it? Is it a new project you’re working on?”
“ something like that. ” oh. that isn’t exactly an answer, huh ? he really hasn’t had company in a while, has he. “ i don’t really what i was thinking when i built all this. it’s boring. ” to anyone else, it would be the opposite of that - with colorful lights, grand fixtures, and all the like. not to mention, it’s all handcrafted by himself. but the perfectionist in him wants something new. something to distract himself. “ i’m taking everything apart and adding to it. that’s the sound system. wanna test it out ? ”
“ don’t touch that. ” it comes out a little too harshly than he means for it too. he’s ... still working on it. the whole interacting with people thing. if anything, his sharp tone was because what she was about to touch might have been faulty. this is what he gets for tinkering with his gym and allowing himself company. a sigh. “ it’s dangerous. it might shock you. ” / @estrellawn !

“ hello ? are you alright ? youre not dead, are you ? ”
“ yeah. my spirit’s already half way done leaving this plane. i’m on my way. ”

‘ Oh most definitely. Not everyone can do gym leader work, and since theirs more youth becoming trainers—along with a new threat every ten years, they’d suffer greatly without us. We might as well tell our champions we want a raise. ‘
“ most people couldn’t do gym leader work, let alone everyone. the stuff we have to do can be pretty rough. ” as if he’s one to talk. all he did this week was give badges away for free and tell kids to leave. “ so before we take our well earned vacation to alola together, what do you think we should say to the champions. maybe a strike is in order. ” he’ll get the posters.
i barely have followers and barely anyone is online but i want to talk about…volkner. read this if you’d like to? he means…so much to me.

‘ I have chicken, beans and pita. It’s not much—but it does curb hunger! You need to eat. ‘ She reaches into her purse, then holds up a nicely wrapped burrito in a sandwich wrap. ‘ Have it. Hunger dwindles the focus, you know.
ugh. we all know no one can say no to oly. she’s just too good...a legend, that everyone, in every region, stans. for good reason. “ ... okay. ” it’s a wonder he’s putting his pen away, but it’s gone. he gingerly reaches for the burrito and averts his gaze before looking back at the other with an almost unnoticeable but appreciative smile. “ thanks, olympia. i’ll cut it in half so we can share ? ”
“ i’m not hungry. ” he’s not the best liar, especially considering his stomach just growled. but hey, he’s got a pen in his left hand and a ruler in the other, and this design for his gym he just thought up is making his head spin with ideas.
