ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

-Pent nodded slowly and shuffled around to face Jacob and the twins watching from the window above-

Yes, but not just that. There's... Other things going on, like that Persona thing... But a few more besides, just personal things...

Larvitar: <FOOD ?>

-He noms on Phaz's right hand. Needless to say, this hurts.-

Phaz: -mixed noise between hyperventilation and crushed hopes- This... Is... Fine... I... Can... Handle... The... Pain-shouts-ICANNOTHANDLETHEPAINOHARCEUSTHISHURTS !

-Phaz starts punching the Larvitar in the face to make him stop-

Phaz: stopitstopitstopitSTOOOOOP !

Cynthia: <Need help ?>

Phaz: YEEEEEEEEEEESOHARCEUSMYDEARARCEUSPLEASEMAKETHISCOMETOANEEEEEEEEND! -sobs- USEIDON'TKNOWHYPNOSISYEAHTHAT'LLDOHYPNOTISEHIMOHARCEUS !

Cynthia: <Here i go.>

Larvitar: <Wow theses stalagmites tastes weird... Uh ? Why do i feel so dizzyyyyy...>

-Phaz's torture ( and screams, don't forget the screams) comes to an end as he clutches on his hand, sobbing uncontrollably.-

Cynthia: <Hold on let me see... -whiste- Wow this is not good. At least catch him while he's sleeping.>

Phaz: RAAH... -inhale- Yes you are right. Here goes nothing...

-Phaz shuffles in his bag, takes out a Pokeball, and shove it into the Larvitar's face.-

The ball shuffles.

Once

Twice

-Katchick-

Congratulations Phaz ! You caught a
Phaz: OH GOD THE PAIIIN !

Jubilife City

Phosphora: Eh, at this point I'd say why not, but I haven't actually run into any of them yet.

-She taps her chin.-

Phosphora: Now that I think about it that might be the Jaegers' fault.

Floaroma

Kieran: Yeesh, you've got it really rough.

-The pollen in the air finally gets to Sarah, and she sneezes. Kieran tosses her a bottle of allergy medicine, then starts climbing out of the window-

Lake Verity

Jastis: "Sooooo while they're looking for me you should go find a Glitch and punch it!"

Floaroma

Jacob: -He nods- "Well, the Velvet Room stuff isn't too bad. I mean, it's painful, but not too bad. But yeesh, sorry to hear. Hope things turn up for you then. You should still try and get some sleep? You know, so that you can function between these things. Being paranoid about what will happen if you fail doesn't do anyone any good if you don't have the energy to try and succeed."

Jubilife City

Phosphora: I just might go and do that. Any, see you... eventually. I got to go FIND the Jaegers first.

Too much to do, too much to contemplate and theorize to spend hours just sleeping. I barely know what my Shadow is gonna be and sooner or later we're gonna have to face it...

Lake Verity

Jastis: "Kay! See you Phosy!" -He hangs up-

"... Now to try and hide this."

-A Klink floats nearby-

Zelrich: <When she wakes up...>

Jastis: -Aggressively adjusts his bow tie- "I'll worry later."

-Speaking of that boy tie let's take a detour to describe how this kid looks, shall we?-

-A boy with tan skin and behind a pair of comically thick black rimmed glasses are green eyes with a little ring of yellow around the pupil. He's of average height but relatively thin, with a playful and well defined face. His hair is black and slicked back where it curls outwards and the tips are tinged purple-

-He's dressed in slacks and a black button up shirt held up by dark green suspenders and a green bow tie-

-He kicks the brass pod- "Stupid thing."

Floaroma

Jacob: -He goes quiet- "... I know that fear. Fair enough. It's hard to sleep with all these things to think about."

Floaroma

-Kieran comes over and pats Pent-

Kieran: Even then... you need to get rest. We all know damn well that losing sleep like this is really, really dangerous for you.

-Sarah tumbles out of the window gracelessly, but isn't hurt too much and gets up just fine-

Sarah: That said... mind filling the two of us in on what exactly you've been dealing with? "Shadow" doesn't exactly sound promising but we're kinda lacking context.

On the topic of futurekids

-Remember these twins?-

-You know-

-Dane and Mary-

-Well, just Mary right now.-

-Her brother takes after their father-

-He's stuck in a tree just outside of Twinleaf Town-

Mary:You're the one with the Skarmory.

Dane:SHUT UP AND GET ME DOWN!

-Pent sighs and closes his eyes a little to concentrate-

Alright, let's run down the list... Dreamtime Online is the cute little name that I came up with for the situation where Psyche's mindscape has expanded in the Collective Unconsciousness and is close enough to everyone else's mindscape to drag them in every so often. The resulting mental realm is dangerous, and it seems that death leads to an inescapable coma as one's astral form is trapped in her mindscape... Shadows are the distilled essence of the worst aspects of a person appearing in a twisted little mental realm called a Dungeon. Death there seems impossible, but it damn well hurts like the dickens. These Shadows need to be faced in order to obtain an astral companion upgrade so we can face an escaped ancient evil who I think even the legendaries are underestimating... And finally I think I'm being watched, followed even.

Somewhere

-there is a white-haired boy wearing a pair of Buneary ears, prancing about with a basket full of eggs-

Hearthome City

-Iggy is around and may be eggled!-

En Route to Hearthome

-As is Lane!-

Floaroma

Jacob: "... Wow. Yeah. When you put it like that that is a lot to handle. ... Though wait, you think you're being watched and or followed? What gives you that idea?"

Floaroma

-Dune blows his nose as Deziree and Selene are looking at the local Sinnohese flowers, one of which is the exact same hue as Selene's pink hair.-

Floaroma Town

You know how I travel don't you? The interconnected shadows and Subwhere? I've felt a presence there as of late, a faint presence that seems to just... Linger. And then when I stay somewhere too long it feels like I'm being watched with scorching gaze... I just... Don't know what it is, but it's following me...

Floaroma

Jacob: "You travel via shadows? Awesome."

"..."

"Um. Well I suppose feeling a presence not there before is a bad sign. Maybe we'll figure out what it is and be rid of it soon enough though. Optimism!"

Yeah, maybe...

-Pent shrugs and sighs-

So yeah, far too many things to worry about besides getting sleep.

Floaroma

-a handful of flowers is scattered in the air around the couple, now three-

Joseph: Eeeeeeeeeeggs? :3

Floaroma Town

Dune: Eggs?

Deziree: Eggs! =D

Selene: Eggs!

-A Shiny Ralts pokes her head out from behind a bush.-

Satele: <You can barely take care of yourself, Selene!>

Route 212

Daydre is around. ... Maybe she could get an egg?

Floaroma

-To Muddy-

I hope you realize what happens this Friday.

Muddy: <April Fools?>

April Fools.

Floaroma

Sarah: Hm... I really can't help most of those things, but if you feel like you're being followed, hmm... Do you have any Pokemon that can keep you moving while you're asleep? Or even just to generally keep watch over you. And can you lucid dream?

-Kieran notices Dune and Dezi, and goes to greet them-

Floaroma

Joseph: Heeheehee! Two little lovebunnies for two little lovebunnies~

-they both get a Nidoran egg; the genders are reversed for Dune and Dezi, and Joseph turns to Kieran-

Joseph: Hello~

Floaroma

-Kieran smiles at Joseph-

Kieran: Hey there~

Sarah: (Stahp thinking)

Kieran: (I reserve the right to call you out on the same thing later.)
