Tori's Cabin

Eridanus: Oh your poor little thing... You're barely yourself. That's bad :c

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

Maria:M-Michael?

-She smiles.-

Y-you came back...

Haruba Desert

-Straw is looking through the desert, when he finds a Metagross-like robot roaming the sands, glowing green like the emotion machines, and possessing the same antenna-

...Well that's new.

Caliburn:<Not everyday that you see a Metagross robot.>

Aurora:<I wonder what it's for?>

I have a pretty good feeling I know what it's for...

-They get closer, and the robot passes over them, seeming to scan them. As it does so, Caliburn and Aurora experience headaches, the robot siphoning their emotions from close range-

What's going on?

-the robot turns around, and faces Straw, the Robo-Metagross's eyes opening, showing two people "piloting" it. One person happens to be Luna-

Luna? What's with the robot?

Illusion Grunt:Isn't that one of those J-Team people?

Luna:-hesitates a bit- ...Yeah, it is.

Illusion Grunt:Well in that case, I'm gonna—

-He is cut off by a loud roar coming from the sand-

Luna:We're getting out of here!

-The eye flaps close and the robot flees. Taking its place is a trio of Garchomp, their eyes red with rage due to the Emotion drain-

...This is gonna suck.

Tori's Cabin

Eridanus: You're sick. Least I could is to at least visit. [sigh] Came back, only to see you in this state.

...this has to be a bad joke.

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

Maria:A bad...joke? How so? I'm just happy you're here!

-She headtilts.-

Eridanus: Look at how you look! You're in a bad state. [sigh] Now I can't unthink the worst. [head drops down]

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

-Maria crawls to the end of the bed.-

Maria:Please don't be like this...I don't like seeing you sad...

-Lane watches from the doorway.-

Tori's Cabin

Eridanus: I... can't. I just can't. I can't unempathy you... ...now I feel even worse. There's one thing yelling at you... and there's another seeing you in bad state... I can't really unthink this...

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

-Maria gives Eri a sheet covered hug.-

Maria:It's just a bad coincidence. I caught a little cold, that's all.

-There's a little pep to her voice. You can hear the smile. She's at least trying to be happy.-

Tori's Cabin

Eridanus: ...I still have the weird feeling in the guts.

[hugs back] Wait, where's Tori?

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

-Maria tightens her hug.-

Maria:I still have that feeling too...Michael

Phillip:<She was here earlier.>

Haruba Desert

-Near Straw and the enraged Garchomp, another Garchomp pops up out of the sand suddenly, facing the other Garchomp as if he wants to battle-

Finn: <I think you spoke a bit too soon.>

Tori's Cabin.

Eridanus: No, it's not that feeling. Not when you confessed that you... like me.

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

Maria:Then...-Cough-...then let me help. I don't like seeing you like this...and that's because I like you.

-She squeezes.-

Please...

Eridanus: Look at yourself. You're half-alive yourself...

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

-Morgan pounces Lane.- Wherehaveyoubeenbigbrotherimissedyousomuch!

Tori's Cabin

-She smiles.-

Maria:I can still do things, I'm tough!

-She thinks.-

At least...stay here for a while...at least until I get better?

-Lane is pounced.-

Lane:Wagh! Sorry, Morgan. I had some business to take care of. Ashley and I went to Haruba for a dew days.

Tori's Cabin

Eridanus: ...okay. But you will not get anywhere outside this airship, unless it's required for your good. Comprende? AND NO "But..."

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

Maria:...Deal.

-She gives him a kiss on the cheek.-

Not unless I need to.

Haruba Desert

-One of the Garchomps turns to Finn, and tries to hit him with Dragon Rush, while the other two use Dragon Claw towards Aurora and Caliburn. Caliburn shields Aurora and Straw, then Aurora follows up with Psychic on one of them, knocking it back-

Tori's Cabin

-Tori walks in through the door with a mug of tea and honey, then pauses-

Tori: "Well if it's just a cold, you shouldn't need to go anywhere..."

Tori's Cabin

Eridannu: You know what? [yawn] Suddenly, I feel bit sleepy. I think I'll just go to my room and lie on the bed... O hey Tori.

"Screw it, I AM going to enjoy this game!"

Tori's Cabin

Maria:Be sure to come back...OK?

-Lane is on the ground after the Morgan pounce.-

Tori's Cabin

-Tori hands the drink to Maria-

Tori: "Hey Eri. I've got an extra bed if you want to just nap in here instead, plenty of room."

Haruba Desert

-Finn, not being entirely ready for the attack after popping out, gets struck by the Dragon Rush and knocked back somewhat-

Finn: <...Well, we'll see how it goes this time, then.>

-He shakes the ground with an Earthquake to try and hit all three of the Garchomp (and probably accidentally Aurora and Straw) in the process-
