Phaz: where the hell is Ark.

CU
-Pent just follows the others silently back to the Velvet Room-
Meanwhile (Or to be honest a few days after the CU stuff, because 16 hour limit on the actual unconsciousness of CU runs), a bakery in Sinnoh
-Someone's cooking. The who is not important, it's the why and the what that is all that matters. It was late in the day to be making things at the bakery, all the stuff for sale was made hours ago but when a pretty girl walks in with a basketful of strange fruit and a large brass Noctowl on her shoulder asks for a special pie to go in such a sweet voice there's not really much you can do. So our baker was making a pie, occasionally confused at how best to prepare these foreign fruits the girl had brought to his shop. Eventually however he managed to finish the filling, roll out some hastily-prepared dough and pop the pie in the oven and walked out to the front to await it's finishing. The girl who requested such a strange pie was sitting, forehead pressed against her ticking companion as if in thought-
The Baker: 'Scuse me miss? Your pie will be ready in fifteen minutes or so. I'll keep it warm in the oven though if you'd like to go and come back later.
The Girl: Thank you kind sir, but I am fine awaiting it here.
The Baker: Alright, I'll just be in the back if you need anything.
-The girl nodded silently and resumed her quiet contemplation with her mechanical owl as the baker stepped into his kitchen to wait out the remaining cooking time on the strange pie. He felt... off, a little woozy after he had made the pie's filling and put it in the oven. He shrugged a little, the fruit in the filling must have been a little bit beyond ripeness but he'd made pies from worse before. Eventually he shook off the weariness and retrieved the pie from the oven. It smelt appetizing, he was almost tempted to take a slice for himself but... Well he still had plenty of fruit left over, it would be simple to just make a small pie once his customer had left. He grabbed the pie, carefully lifting it into a nicer paper casing than the metal he cooked it in before bringing it out to the front. He went to walk it over to the girl, smiling a bit at how she looked resting with her companion
Fate intervened however.
He tripped, a loose tile on the floor of the bakery tripping him up and sending the pie flying at his customer and ending with it splattering across her dress and face... He apologized profusely and started to walk back to the kitchen to retrieve a towel and start work on that second pie as apology when she stood silently and recalled her companion to it's clockwork pokeball...-
-Someone's cooking. It is not the who that is important. Until someone realizes the stains on the floor and the distaste in the cold pies left on the kitchen table noone will remember the unimportant baker... At which point I'll be gone. The girl will be gone and with her the state the girl had foolishly allowed herself to slip into. She'd need to discipline herself better lest this happen again-

She unfocuses again.

Eterna City, Part II: Battle Tendency
<Enigma: Hmm. You will give battle, then. No deal can be forced. Once power is placed into eldritch format, certain rules are enforced. When in the form of a "deal", consent is required. A wager can stand in for a deal. Defeat can be sometimes construed as consent. Am I correct so far?>

Still up for finishing that conversation from the day after Jason's accident Tagg
Eterna City - Today
-Blitz is walking with his computer bag again, but he's stopped by a shiny ralts jumping on his leg-
Pipit: <Hey! You're goin' to the hospital again, right? I wanna come!>
Blitz: "Ah-" -He turns and crouches to be closer to the Ralt's level- "Yeah, but you should probably stay behind... It's not really a good place for a kid like you right now"
Pipir: <It's 'cause you dun want me to see Jason with his arm missing, right? Well I already know about that, and I can be a big boy, I'm not scared!>
-Blitz chuckles-
Blitz: "Well, that and there might be a lot of pain and grief and stress over there than I'm not sure I want to expose a little empath like you to just yet..." -He thinks for a few moments- "...Why do you want to come? It's probably going to be pretty boring, to be honest"
Pipit: <I was just thinking... Since Jason's there, maybe papa's there too?>
-Beat-
-Blitz smirks, and lifts the little Ralts onto his shoulders as he stands-
Blitz: "Alright, but you gotta tell me if things get too uncomfortable, and you need a rest in your ball, okay?"
Pipit: <Okaaay!>
