Sakura gives Blitz a weird look for some time as she slowly registers all the information "... Oh. Did you find an armband or something?"
Fall City
Blitz sighs, maybe out of relief, maybe because he hasn't told anyone all the details before "No, that would be a lot easier to control than this... curse, I guess you could call it. Have you heard of a being called Noir?"

"Never heard of that name before, of that I'm fairly sure."

Blitz: "Of course not, that'd make this easier. Blitz headtilts
"Well, I met her, but I guess that's not important right now. Short version is I, er, changed that night, and then I ran into Teishi. He invited me to come with the Greninja Squad, and at first I didn't know if I'd ever change back so I accepted. Except I do change back sometimes, and I got scared so I tried to hide it from him..."
He rubs the back of his head "...Pretty stupid I guess. He calls me Shinobi now, at night anyway"
Tori: "Yeah, it's pretty fun. But you don't get to see much of the world staying at home, so we decided to travel a bit."

Sarah: What else can I say? I want to help you, to fix what I broke...

"... Wait, if you're part of the Squad and you saw what happened yesterday... One of my Pokémon is a human...?" said Sakura, blinking in confusion "I mean, you're not actually my Pokémon but you work under me so... Huuuh..."
Sakura seemed quite stunned by that reveal.

-He looks up, his eyes are a dull blue rather than their usual brown and green.-
Jason:Fix...what you broke...I was trying to help you...though...
-He averts his gaze to the floor.-
I can't help anyone...

Maria:Oh! Then we're the same then!

Sarah: ...
-She sits down next to Jason and hugs him silently.-

Blitz: "Sorta, I mean it's only at night. I'm like this during the days... I don't think any of the squad know yet, I didn't know how to tell them." He rubs the back of his head "I guess I really should have done that earlier..."
Tori giggles "I guess so. What did you do before you started treasure hunting?"

Fall City
"I'm not sure if they'd want a human on the team, after all it kinda goes against the whole motif, even if you're technically a Froakie and part of the team, and thus my Pokémon... How come things got so weird all of sudden?" she sighs.

-Jason tenses a little.-
Jason:Sympathy? Why? It's true...ain't it?
We're sorry, but your husband was killed on assignment.
Dad...
We're moving, it's for the best...
Mom...
Let's find a tower...so you can rest...

The Aura enters Vierr's body, and is instantly rejected.
Vierr...
If you want to help, them leave me the fuck alone.
You...
-His eyes return to normal. Tears slowly leak front their corners.-
It's all...true...I couldn't...do anything...for any of them!
-and he breaks down once more.-
Fall City
Maria:Well...I mostly helped in the library when I could...that's where I read about all these treasure hunters and their amazing adventures. I wanted to have one too!

I don't think they'd want my help.

Blitz: "Well, at least you can control what you are. I don't have much choices unless I go into hiding"
He sighs "I don't really know what to do, but they've been helping me learn how to be a pokemon..." He chuckles "Oh, and I'm a Frogadier now."
Tori giggles "Yup, same here. After being around so many other people's pokemon I decided to go out with my own pokemon. But I've only got one right now."

Not A Lawyer
East Road
-Lucius' eyes flash blue as he darts out of the way of the swordsman's first couple of swings with near-inhuman speed.-
???: Hmph. Too wretched to die with dignity, I see.
Lucius: There's very few things that I can claim to be good at, but not dying is one of them.
???: An arrogant claim that will prove to be one of your last.
-A third swing takes off a few locks of Lucius' hair, and only avoids beheading him by virtue of him ducking in time.-
Lucius: Look, I know I've done some bad things in the past, but could you please tell me why you want me dead? I want to try and fix any damage I've inflicted, not-
???: You are far beyond that point now, Cain. I will not waste breath listing your transgressions when you are unaware of them yourself. The only redemption you will find will be in death.
Lucius: (Dammit, I can't seem to reason with this guy... I thought I wouldn't have to deal with any masked psychos today!)
-Meanwhile, the swordsman's Scizor attempts to strike Kirk with a Brick Break, only to be thwarted by Kirk throwing up a Protect at the last minute.-
Scizor: <Of course he would make my task more difficult by forcing me to face you...>
Kirk: <From what I can gather, you're trying to kill Lucius. I'm kind of obligated to make things as difficult for you as possible.>
-He blasts the Scizor backwards with an Aura Sphere.-
Scizor: <...My purpose may seem monstrous to you, and I doubt you would agree with my reasoning even if I were to explain my situation. Even I consider it a last resort, a grim necessity that must be done in order to->
Kirk: <You talk too much.>
-He opens his mouth and uses Hidden Power to breathe a gout of fire over the Scizor.-
Kirk: <There. That should shut you->
Scizor: <Things are never quite that simple, I'm afraid.>
-The Scizor hauls himself to his feet, seemingly unfazed.-
Kirk: <...How the hell did you manage to tank that?>
Scizor: <Decades of experience have taught me how to endure.>
-He charges at Kirk with another Brick Break, knocking the Lucario to the floor and pinning him in place. As he does so, the swordsman manages to catch Lucius across the head with a glancing blow from the flat side of the replica Tsumugari, sending him crashing to the ground.-
Lucius: Guh...!
-In an instant, the swordsman is atop him, pressing their sword against his throat and glaring at him from behind their half-mask.-
???: Any last words before you receive your long-overdue retribution, fiend?
Trans rights are human rights. JK Rowling preaches hate. If you sit at a table with five bigots and say nothing, there are now six bigots.

"... Oh. You're that Frogadier. Well, I guess all you can do is talk to them, Teishi is very laidback so I doubt he'll be upset with you. Just... Don't go around spreading stuff about me."

Blitz: "Yeah, that was me... I'll talk to him about it next time I see him." he headtilts "Anyway, I wasn't planning on spreading that sort of information. I've heard Galactic was up to something around here..."

-Sarah hesitates-
Sarah: ...And you did. Because of you, my mind shut off any empathic powers I once had. Those were destroying me, and seeing how if affected you ended that pain.

Tori grins "Yup! And some big pokemon too. Get to see mon from all over the world sometimes when we've got travelers in town"
Blitz: "No, wait, don't get mad at him! He didn't know it was me because I was a Froakie at the time!" And now I sound like a lunatic. GREAT JOB GENIUS...
