ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Malie Library

"Well, typically poker is played with actual chips or tokens, which we don't- did someone say something about turning humans into Pokemon." Colton interrupted himself, turning to look at where Mew was.

"I'll be back in a bit," Colton said, lobbing a Great Ball up. Sylveon landed on the table, trying to lift up the cards Colton had.

Her trainer rolled his eyes and whispered in her ear which card was what while pointing to each corresponding card.

Then he dashed.

"Did someone say something about turning people into Pokemon?" He asked again, now at what he was confident was the source.

I mean, with a Legendary involved...

Oh, will just note I used a random generator thing too

-Squealer looks at his own hand-

Squealer: <Oh, sure. I'll bet my soul too.>

Malie Library

<You can do that?> Sylveon breathed. Then she shrugged, recalling what kind of hand she had.

<Okay, I suppose I could bet my soul, too. Just promise we aren't playing for keeps, okay? I need this thing to condescend,> she remarked as she raised a paw to her chest.

-suddenly, an eavesdropper!-

What is Obviously a Mew: ~What? Um. No, don't be silly, that's impossible. Pokémon don't even exist!~

...

-realizing that excuse is not going to fly, Mew settles for firing a helical beam from her paw at Colton, leaving a Rockruff in his place-

...

...

...

~I panicked.~

Malie Library

Echo: We were no strangers to reckless multiversal travel, that's for certain. Usually through Ultra Wormholes and the Entralink, but some of our travels involved ripping open our on rifts to hop through. And we — and by "we" I mean "they" — took so many resources from other universes they'd give the Travelers heart attacks.

-She gives Mew a look-

Echo: On one hand, that is a good idea in theory, but of course, be careful not to be too trigger-happy with it—

-She's interrupted by Mew being too trigger-happy with it.-

Echo: ...

<Thanks, dude!> Colton yipped. <I've been searching for an opportunity to get my Pokeform to evolve, but I don't have one o' dem armbands.

<This is as good an opportunity as any, I suppose,> he decided. With no motivation to desecrate the Library's floor, he instead leaped for Mew in the hopes that he could take them to the ground.

Malie Library

Bartelby: That was exactly my idea but yes, what Echo sai-

-Suddenly Colton-

-Suddenly Rockruff-

...

What. Did. We. TELL YOU?!

PEFE Bowels

Izaya: Precisely that, actually.

???? -From somewhere behind Silas and Hacks, though it might not be much of a surprise to the lucario if he'd been paying attention to aura-

<Ya know... Wouldn't teaching auric abilies be adding a thread to a tapestry rather than pulling it loose?>

-It's a relatively short, brown haired and red eyed human male-

-Totally-

Blitz(?): -shrugs- <Not that anyone asked my opinion>

Ever: Don't worry, I'm not feeling in a soul-repossessing mood.

Muninn: <...Hm.>

PEFE Bowels

PEFE!Every: So, what, I steal her PDA? I've been stealing electronics from Mobius members since I got here; that shouldn't be a problem.

Malie Library

Sylveon released a breath she didn't know she was holding. <I'm still trying to process the fact that you can do that,> she confessed. <but now it's time for the second part of the game.>

She turned to her left. <Which cards do you wish to exchange? Don't show anyone, just set them down.>

Bookshelf Between Here and the Parallel Scene: EXPLODE!

-a Rockruff is sent flying through the air, landing on the poker table-

Librarian, As Well As Multiple Patrons: Shhhhhhh!

'Mew: ... ~sorry~

-she psychics the bookshelf back into shape, leaving the game free to continue-

Malie Library

-A presence looms behind Mew.-

???:    ~Prime.~   

-Echo sighs, and takes out her book again.-

Malie Library

<Ugh...> Colton groaned, picking himself up. <Say what you will about type matchups, man. But that STINGS!> He turned to Sylveon, smiling in heavy embarrassment.

<Goddamnit Colton; you're nearly as bad as Ammy!> She summoned a Heal Bell. <One more, and you're going in the 'ball.>

The Puppy Pokemon sighed and returned to where he was. <Any chance you could, like, get me one of the said armbands or help me evolve?> He asked Mew.

Mew: -fur raising on her back, she s l o w l y turns around to face the voice-

~Starkeeper, hiiiiiii! I m a g i n e running into you here...~

-she abruptly levitates Colton next to her-

~But I was just about to go spar with this guy to help him gain battle experience! So I'm afraid I'm busy right now!~

Malie Library

<You two have a personal beef, don't ya,> Colton sighed. <You Tube commentors~> He chimed loud enough for Sylveon to hear.

She, in turn, summoned a Heal Bell. But less pronounced than the last one. It sounded more like a little *ting*.

Silas and Hacks lifted their heads, and turned around seeing "Blitz"

Silas and Hacks blinked, Hacks closing his eyes to read "Blitz's" aura. Tae, Snakeye and Amber looked over, Bishop popping out of the Laptop.

"Do you know this individual Captain?" Bishop asked.

"I believe so, reminds me a bit of the person who revealed to me Lycanthropy."

Amber instantly perked up, <The person who made you outright lose that monotone in a instant out of shock?!>

Tae sauntered over, <Nice ta meet ya.>

Malie Library

Bartelby: ...You're on your own for this one Prime. Starkeeper, when you aren't consumed by unfathomable rage ask me and Prime and Echo about our evil plan to save the world.

-he also buries his face in a book, his on island ecosystems-

PEFE Depths

Izaya: Silly girl! I need the flash drive. The flash drive belonging to the AI. Not the AI itself. The flash drive the AI owns. The flash drive the AI keeps under heavy guard. The flash drive the AI has electric nightmares about. That flash drive.

Malie Library

-Ever awkwardly drops a few cards attempting to switch them out (it's not easy with one hand), and then drops the rest of them to pet Colton before he is removed-

Ever: What an interesting game. Does this normally happen?

PEFE Bowels

PEFE!Every: Well, that's slightly harder, I guess. Do you know approximately where it's kept?

Malie Library

-Starkeeper    glares    at Mew-

Starkeeper: ~Oh, is that so? Very well, I'll make sure to keep an    eye    on you two so you don't cause any more    problems.   ~

-She looks at Colton with a significantly more cheerful expression, the juxtaposition of which makes it all the more frightening.-

Starkeeper: ~I hope my older sister    Prime    isn't causing too much trouble for you!~

-Hacks would certainly find Blitz's(?) Aura to be very pokemon-y, maybe even ditto-y-

Blitz(?): -chuckles- <Hah, yeah, pretty good chance of that. It's a thing I do sometimes>

-He waves to the assorted mons-

<So how goes it besides debating superpowers?>

Mew!Blitz: -Shudders again, distracting him long enough to get his video game character killed-

-_-

<Okay, that's it, I'm switching to RPGs for the night>

Colton looked at Starkeeper with a face that was a mixture of disdain and fatigue. <After you find yourself chatting with a nihilistic Delphox with a scar bifurcating an eye and rendering half of his jaw vestigial at best, as well as said conversation being pseudo-intellectual, get back to me.

<And don't worry about it; I've been able to take a lot of abuse. At least, my head has.>

Hacks frowned. ~Snakeye~

<Yah?>

~Pin Missle, get it ready~

And with no other words, Snakeye raised both arms from under his poncho, right at "Blitz". The Cacturne's eyes narrowing.

Silas sighed, "Imposter? Really?"

~Aura's too ditto. Plus in case you haven't been paying attention, they aren't talking in any human speak. Not [english], not [french], and not [Japanese].~

Silas eyed the ditto, "Okay so then... talk. What brings you here?"

Bishop added, "You aren't concerned Captain?"

"Honestly this feels a bit overkill."

PEFE Depths

Izaya: From what I've gathered it's in a heavily-fortified former Cipher outpost. We're going to have to find the coordinates. But don't worry, first I'll save you from... What's trying to kill you again?

Malie Library

-Bartelby hums over his book-

Blitz(?): -Puts his hands up- <Hey, hey, hey. Settle down, just wandering around practicing my human impersonations, alright? No harm done>

-He shifts back to his default form of a shiny ditto, still keeping a pair of gelatinous tendrils raised in the same post-

Ditto: <Conversation just happened to catch my ear since I've got a friend who's feeling pretty reticent about learning what powers he's really got, that's all>

"S'cool Snakeye. No need to go [Mccree] on us."

Snakeye lowered his arms, <Just looking out for ya.>

"I appreciate that, now that friend, dear Ditto, is it Blitz?"
