Our avatars are in a room together

"I can't really say I'm much of a people person. I trust you, but I'm just not really built for that sort of thing."

Solace nodded in agreement.

Aw, I understand.

So what monster were you thinking about?

"Her name is Tracey and she's a piece of work."

-Yvette Rowe-Cantin is in the basement, very carefully painting a miniature at the table-

-An old, decrepit-looking suit of armor sits silently, in a shadowy corner of the basement-

-Yvette, something furry brushed across your ankle-

...?

Ooh... h-hey, that's a...

-Yvette carefully sets the miniature down onto a paper towel-

...??

-peers under the table quickly-

-It looks positively ancient.-

-Battered, cracked, and covered in vines. It clearly hasn't seen use in a very long time....-

-A rat slips into a crack in the wall under her desk-

Woods -> Backyard

(A red-headed middle-schooler strolls out of the woods and into the backyard, stopping when she sees it.)

...W-was that a...

...

-shivers, scooting her chair in as she gets up-

-goes over to the armor, a little worried that it's rat-infested-

-Scitter scratter in the walls-

Previously, on Yu-Gi-Oh...

(here if Mega would like to start-continue)

Homura's Room

(It takes a few moments for there to be a response of some kind.)

Sayaka: <Hello?>

<WHOAHEYWHAT—>

(oh hey, it's a male voice coming from the other end of the telepathy and the door)

Homura's Room

Sayaka: <Um, uh...Door's open! Maybe?>

<Okay, don't worry, help is on the way! Whatever ghost Pokémon is holding you hostage will pay very dearly!>

(from the other end of the door comes a popping noise identical to that of a Poké Ball opening)

<Greninja, breeeeeeeeeach!>

(and the door SLAMS open as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Tongue Frog shoulder-tackles it, Hoshi Shougo following quickly into Homura's room)

Homura's Room

Sayaka: <Wai->

(The Greninja, upon breaching Rainbow Six style, will catch Espeon backflipping away onto a chair and primed to attack the intrusion. There's also no one inside resembling a human.)

Huh...? There's only one Espeon, and it's...

(clicks a tiny button on the frame of his sunglasses)

...Dramatically underleveled compared to us. And it's no Ghost, it can't be the culprit...

(Hoshi gives a POINT at Espeon)

Alright! Tell us what's up here. Tell us who's in trouble... or who the troublemaker is.

...Or, at least tell Greninja, he can speak Pokémon.

...

(shakes his head and facepalms at this entire situation)

Homura's Room

Espeon: (facial expression moves from "defensive" to "indignant" to "confused" to "Flat "What"" at Hoshi) ...Espeon. (turns to face Greninja, points paw at Hoshi) Espeon.

-There's an oddly refreshing smell to the armor. The smell of the forest....-

-Suddenly......a shrill, airy sound....-

   ...Hhhhhhhhaaahhhhhhhhhhh........   

-sniff sniff sniff-

...

Hhhhhhaaahhh...?

...

(looks back at Hoshi and croaks)

...Wait. Wha...?

(Greninja points to the Sayasphere, and a confused Hoshi's gaze follows)

...???

Homura's Room

(It's about that point that one of the screens shimmers on with silent static. Espeon looks from Hoshi to the sphere, then to the screen before going back to Hoshi.)

-Several rats are watching Yvette from the tool shelf on the wall-
