Connecting Cave
Candace: <Now, I better have a sitrep by the time we reach tonight's temp HQ. I want all the details.>
Deziree: I can help with that.
Dune': Speaking of which, getting out of this cave sounds like a good idea. I think the Zubat are waking up again.
-Dune and Deziree start heading west to the exit.-
Dune: And... you said there are Axew in here?
Candace: <Yes. They used to be the dominant Pokemon until we finally whipped them after dominating the food sources.>
Route 8
Maggie: "...Well, don't think I've ever heard of that one before and it seems to be a Kalos native Pokemon. Maybe I should catch it since I haven't gotten any Pokemon not in previous regional dexes yet, but hm..."

Loyalty stops and looks over at the aspect sitting there, smiling. Before he could say anything, the aspect turned around and spotted them, getting up and approaching them, his belt seemed to be brown
"Loyalty, hello." he said, smiling, then looking at Herbert with a somewhat puzzled expression "I see you brought a visitor, somehow."
"Pretty much." said Loyalty, with a shrug, then looking at Herbert as well "This is Compassion, ranked second. So he's two levels above me."

Amanita: Why is there nothing here in purple?
Ever: I guess it's not a popular color.
Amanita: ...Don't be ridiculous.
Ever: Well, there's plenty of blue.

Alex: No, please, don't be like that! I wanted to say sorry for... for making you cry. I'm so sorry.
(He looks distinctly agitated, twitching and staring at the walls. Vattenfallet goes up to Dash.)
Vattenfallet: <Alex has a rather limited grasp of empathy. I don't think he knew how hurtful he was being.>

Ever: So, I guess you're not buying anything?
Amanita: Oh, I'll get something. Any clothes I have will turn purple after a few days anyway.
Ever: ...Huh?
Amanita: Well, for instance...
Flashback!
-Amanita is talking to her parents, Ares flapping wildly behind her-
Amanita's Dad: And while you're here, we got you this nice yellow shirt to wear.
Amanita: ...Why? I hate yellow.
Amanita's Mom: Well, all that purple is scaring the mushrooms. They're growing funny.
Amanita: ...-sighs- Fine.
Pause Flashback!
Ever: ...Your parents are odd.
Amanita: Tell me about it. Anyway...
Resume!
-Amanita is in the back of the house, practicing moves with Ares while wearing the yellow shirt- Okay Ares, try a Sludge Bomb!
-Ares spits out a glob of sludge, and some drops get on Amanita's shirt, quickly spreading until more than half the shirt has turned a dark purple-
Amanita: ...Huh.
Fin!
Ever: ...Wow.
Amanita: It's a gift.
Ever: So is that what happened to your hair, too?
Amanita: No, that's just dye.

Coyote: You know...
-Coyote coils around himself.-
Coyote: I can transform other people just fine... But what about my own form?
-He taps his chin.-

Cyllage Boutique
Amanita: So...why exactly are you here?
Ever: Huh?
Amanita: I mean, you have what, one kind of outfit? What could you possibly be looking for?
Ever: Hey, I found something! -holds up a light blue T-shirt-
Amanita: ...How is that any different from what you're wearing right now?
Ever: ....Shut up.
Amanita: -snickers, and goes back to browsing the clothes-
Meanwhile
-Ephemera is sniffing Drifter-
Drifter: <...What do you want?>
Ephemera: -waves an Aipom-
Drifter: <Go away.>
-Ephemera frowns, and hops away-

-Morgan turns around, looking quite different than the last time Alex saw her, or even before that. Her once pale skin has taken on a bit of a tan. Her longer hair is green and has flowers in it. Her wooden hands clench into fists nervously. And she might just be a few inches taller.-
"It did hurt. A lot..."

Maggie: "...Yeah, I don't really like to, but that kind of happened and I really don't know how to react to that."
-M. Bush runs back to Maggie's side-
M. Bush: <Hey, Maggie. You were taking too long to decide, so I decided for you.>
Maggie: "...Decided wha-"
-She notices that M. Bush now has a Great Ball beside her and that the Binacle is now no longer there-
Maggie: "..."
M. Bush: <Yeah, we really hit it off.>

Valorie came upon Pent and Coyote, stopping in her tracks and just sort of staring as if unable to tear her eyes away. She seemed concerned, not quite sure if what she was looking at was safe.

Anka is currently reading the old, worn book that she found cleaning up the other day. Meanwhile, her various Vivillons crowded around her.
Vash: <Hey Anka, watchya playin' readin'?>
Nyami: <Ooh~ I hope it's something good~ Something that involves copious amounts of blood ~>
Ran: <Oh come off it Nyami, it's probably some boring old journal that has nothing in it of the sort.>
Eros: <Maybe it's a book on amour, mon ami>
Fuya, Hima and Snowshoe: <The hivemind sayth that Eros should stop trying to insert sappy love tales into everything >
Vash: <I second that motion.>
Eros: <Why you emotionless bru->
A shockwave of pleasant smelling fragrances pulses through the room. It seems to be coming from the Ocean Vivillon perched on Anka's head.
Clermeil: <Enough! Anka and I are trying to read this journal!>
Clermeil goes back to focusing on the old tatty book that Anka is reading. Anka flips through various pages, most of which catalogue the days of the writer, some of which contain plans, designs and even maps. One of the more notable things in the book is a hand drawn map of the Lumoise Catacombs.
Anka: Seems like this belonged to some kind of doctor a long time ago. -Removes the map from the book- This could prove to be useful, maybe I should report it to Sir... -Pockets the map-
Nyami: <Ooh~ •3•>
Fuya, Hima and Snowshoe: <The plot, it thickens •3•3•3•>

-Elise is battling random Viscounts throughout the castle, dressed in a slightly more fancy black dress, obviously from the Lumiose Boutique-
Fontaine:-Unleashes a Blizzard on the opposing Tropius- <You really need to cool off.>
-The Tropius attempts to dodge by flying up, but is frozen solid by Blizzard. It falls, and slams into the ground. The ice shatters to reveal a KO'd Tropius-
Viscount No Name:My bananasaur!
Elise:Well, that was easy. Though, you need to cool it with the puns, Fontaine.
-Fontaine smirks-
Elise:...Arceusdammit.
Fontaine:<Don't worry, I'm sure it'll all melt away.>
-Elise punches him. She recoils in pain, since she just punched a freezer-
Elise:...You're done for today.
-She recalls Fontaine, and heads out, running into Clair as she crosses the tiny bridge-
Claire:Well, if it isn't Miss Snowflake. Let me guess, you just got horribly beaten.
Elise:Nope. Just won some battles.
Claire:Hmph. That's not that impressive. But then again, any victory at all is good for an Ice Trainer.
-Claire walks off towards Connecting Cave-
Elise:...
