Belinda: Aww, tha- hold it. You broke up with your girlfriend?
Tastes better on the way back down.A City
-two Team-Aqua-affiliated Blastoise are waiting in the streets for a lab to complete some water sample tests-
Edward: <Where'd Revy go?>
Teach: -grins- <I told her to go entertain herself by telling passerby their destinies.>
Edward: <Oh my kyogre that's terrible!>
Teach: <I couldn't resist!>
<Oh, there she is...>
-they turn to spy on a Dunsparce standing outside a café-
Forty Feet Away
Lillipup: <Woof-woof!>
Revy: <Your destiny is to be locked outside tonight after spending too long eating in the bushes!>
Lillipup: <Oh no! I had better eat inside tonight then!>
Revy: <What?! No, destinies are to be embraced, not->
-the Lillipup trots off-
Café Table
-Revy approaches a seated pack of Vigoroth-
Revy: <Good news! You are destined to have the best food fight of the evening!>
Vigoroth: <Woo-hoo! EVERYBODY GET READY!>
-they all grab their salad bowls and hoist them into the air...-
Bouncer: Heck no.
EVICTED!
Street Again
Revy: <You were supposed to wait until they were looking the other way...>
-a figure in a trenchcoat passes by-
Revy: <I see soggy shoes in your future!>
Trenchcoat: Oh, I see.
-Mewtwo hovers over the puddle he was about to step into-
Revy: <b-b-b-but!>
....
Maybe if I tell people the opposite of their destinies they'll stop avoiding them...
Like that woman over there, staring at that guy longingly... obviously her destiny is to never have the guts to talk to him, leading to her never finding a fulfilling relationship and growing up alone and bitter. So instead I'll say...
-she sidles up next to the woman-
Revy: <Hey, see that guy there? He's the one.>
Woman: O-oh! You think...? I was just about to back down, but... you've encouraged me, Dunsparce!
Yes, today, Eskatella Q. Sherman finds her soulmate!
-she runs out into traffic towards the guy-
Thespian Truck: HONK-HONK!
Woman: AH!
Revy: -can't watch-
A Moment Later, In The Man's Arms
Woman: ...huh?!
Man: Hey, are you okay?! You gave me quite the... scare...
Woman: ...
Man: ...
Woman: ...hi ♥
Revy's Head: -explodes metaphorically-

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Goldenrod
Mondo: <Well... Maybe I can get used to having friends then>
-He rubs the back of his head and glances up at the moon-
<I should probably head back. Um... See ya>
No prob
Sarascape
-F!Eskay gives Sakura a sad look-
F!Eskay: Nothing is more painful than knowing something is wrong and being unable to do anything about it... Unfortunately, the only parts of this mindscape with the power to stand up to danger are the corrupted parts...
Sakurascape
-Sarah blinks-
Sarah: ...Any other suggestions, then?
Sarascape
"Wait, what do you mean with that?"
Sakurascape
"Well, you could ask for another aspect to bring you there. Or just go through one of the other paths, they lead you to the home of the others."
Bel's room
Ray closed her eyes and slowly nodded."She..she saw the kiss, and then we..kinda had a fight. Turns out we were having more problems than either of us wanted to mention, and..well..there was a fair bit of bitterness on both sides." She opened her eyes again, red rimmed and teary."It feels like..like my heart's been ripped apart, like..like a portion of me is just missing now, and it's like..it feels empty, it feels.." she could only shrug, as at this point she didn't seem capable of talking anymore.
Sarascape
F!Eskay: Well, I just explained about Elda. The other one is Sarashi, and... well, you and the Squad already know what she's like... The rest of us are completely pacifist. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't do anything to sand up against those two, much less the Fears themselves.
Sakurascape
Sarah: "Another aspect", as in... not you?
Sarascape
"And if I try to do anything, I'm going to be skinned alive." said Sakura, sweatdropping
Sakurascape
"I might be a ninja but I'm not actually capable of special powers that would allow me to climb that staircase without fainting halfway through. I don't even know why that's there."
Sarascape
F!Eskay: Unfortunately, that is a very real possibility...
-She sighs, looking back out toward the strange rock sculptures in the river-
Sakurascape
Sarah: Well, it was worth a shot.
-She shrugs, and decides to choose the door furthest to the left.-
Sarascape
"Maybe I should've brought the Squad along this time as well, at least I would be able to actually do something here..." Sakura sighed, trying to think of something to do "... What's with the vague heart shape inside the river? I believe it wasn't there last time."
Sakurascape
A trip to another side of the mindscape later, Sarah might find herself inside some sort of dojo, one that seemed to be quite empty at the moment, the room she was in having nothing noteworhty outside of a large drawing of a yin-yang symbol.
Sarascape
F!Eskay: Oh, that? Fourteen built that while Sarah was coming to terms with her feelings. He's the love aspect. Unfortunately, after Lucius's death...
-Another rock becomes dislodged and tumbles down the stream.-
F!Eskay: That happened.
Sakurascape
-Sarah looks around.-
Sarah: ...Please tell me we're not going to have another ninja pop out of absolutely nowhere.
Sarascape
"Oh."
Sakura looks at the shape again, it takes about five seconds for the new information to sink in, making her eyes go wide.
"Wait, what?!" she looked at F!Eskay, giving a very puzzled look to the aspect.
Sakurascape
"Why, welcome to the Dojo of Temperance!"
Sarah might notice a figure coming inside the room, a figure that looked like this◊ but with pink hair.
"I don't get visitors usually, what brings you to my humble dojo of knowledge and enlightment?"
Sarascape
F!Eskay: ...You didn't know already?
Sakurascape
Sarah: Oh, phew. Er, I'm just sorta... visiting. Sakura had the idea of me coming here instead of getting caught in one of my own psycho aspect's body. That happened last time we did something mind-y, and it wasn't fun.

Sarascape
"No! She never told me anything like that! Are you telling me you, I mean, Sarah; she has; had, a crush on Lucius?!"
Sakurascape
"Yes yes, we know about that. We are part of her, remember?" she smiled, "In any case, I'm Temperance, the most important aspect in this mindscape." she then proceeds to swish her cape while keeping a dignified smiling expression, followed by sudden sparkles.

Duniree's Quarters
-Dune is sitting on the "couch" when Deziree comes walking in with considerably more bags than when we last saw her.-
Dune: ... Woah, woah, where did you get the money for all of that?
Deziree: Oh, a mugger tried to hold me up.
-She tosses a big, fluffy bag to Dune - it's filled with sheets a big, fluffy comforter. Much higher thread-count than what they had on the bed already.-
Dune: ... Wah? Wait, how much cash did he have on him?!
Deziree: A few hundred bucks in cash, plus a list of contacts. I didn't keep any of it, though.
Dune: Then where did this-
Deziree: Bounty.
Dune: ... You are the coolest girlfriend ever.
Sarascape
F!Eskay: ...Yes. That is exactly what I'm telling you.
Sakurascape
Sarah: ...Er, your ego is showing. Might wanna try to hide it a little better.
Sarascape
Sakura blinks a few times before speaking up "... That explains quite a bit actually."
Sakurascape
"It is true, though." Temperance calmly stated.
Sarascape
F!Eskay: She actually had that crush for a long time, she just stayed in denial until a few months ago. Well... Except for that little bit of time in Unova, but... actually, wait, you're the first person to know about that incident now. Oops. Um.
Sakurascape
Sarah: Well, uh... what makes you so important , then?
Sarascape
Sakura had already opened her mouth to say something, but stopped herself for a moment "... I should be looking for a way to prevent her nightmares, not trying to find more about her love life." she said, sighing "But now the lenghts she went to avenge Lucius makes more sense now, it must've hurt her a lot more than anyone else."
Sakurascape
"It's simple. I'm the aspect that represents self-control. It doesn't matter if you're just, generous or dilligent, without self-control even good trait become bad as you are unable to balance yourself. There is such a thing as trying too hard, or being too generous or too kind; those can be just harmful as their extremes. Without self-control there's no balance, only extremes." she gives Sarah a stern look "As I'm sure you've realized yourself."
Sarascape
-F!Eskay nods-
F!Eskay: Especially so soon after what may have been her greatest achievement so far. It was only a couple days between her victory in the Sinnoh league and her finding out about Lucius's death...
Sakurascape
-Sarah winces slightly-
Sarah: I know, I know...
Goldenrod
-Revy is suddenly scooped up by a Chimecho-
Breeze: <Hi!>
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Sarascape
"I didn't know..." Sakura's expression becomes more somber "No wonder she's having so much trouble sleeping. Yet I still can't do anything to help here, not without being skinned alive for my troubles."
Sakurascape
Temperance smiled cheerfully "How convenient though that you decided to visit, I've quite interested in your current predicament. You were one of the last people we thought would be capable of such inexcusable behavior! A loss of control of that caliber is quite dangerous, both for you and those around you."
Sarascape
F!Eskay: Well, there's no saying you can't investigate. I mean... I actually haven't been to the source of that river yet. Even I don't know what's going on there, and I'm supposed to be omniscient as far as the aspects are confirmed.
Sakurascape
-Sarah looks incredibly uncomfortable-
Sarah: ...Can I go now...?
Bel's room
Ray looked at Bel with tearfully grateful eyes, and gave her a big, tight hug."You are so nice. Jason is a really lucky guy." She then sniffled a bit, but did her best to give a smile."I'm gonna miss having someone like that.."
