Forte: Uh, sure.
-Mezzo facepalms-
Mezzo: When you meet a mysterious lady in the middle of the night and she asks if you want to see your future, say no.
Fortis: Look! It's a letter for you and it says it's from a secret admirer!
Xaldin: <Wait, what?>
Fortis: Uh huh! Someone likes— Oh my gosh!
-Fortis is distracted by the appearance of an Oricorio-
Fortis: Dancing birdie! -glomp-
Oricorio♀: <Hey, watch it! You're throwing off my style!>
Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.-After a while of wandering, Sholto and Clean Bandit finally find their way back to shore-
Clean Bandit: <Geez... warn me before you do that next time...>
Sholto: <Yeah, sorry...>
<I should probably check up on Ever, though...>
Hey, sorry about that. Did you find any means of transportation while I was gone?
From: Sholto
-The Rattata is knocked back by a Tackle after being shaken off-
Rattata: <Not done yet...>
-They go in for another Bite-
-The Yungoos, meanwhile, is struck by the Peck, hanging in by a bit-
-They attack the Defense-lowered Domino with a Tackle, this time-

To: Sholto
From: Ever
Yeah, I'm on a motorboat with a strange woman in purple who won't tell me her name, who scares my team (including Muninn), and who speaks in riddles.
For some reason, when I type it like that, it doesn't seem like a good idea.
-To Locke-
Umbra and Lina's kid?
-To Robin-
There's probably something super ironic in this.
Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite....Yeah, she sounds like the kind of person who'll either turn on you or get you to be willingly involved in criminal activity for her sake.
But, hey, it's a way off the island.

-Gus winces again, but repeats his earlier tackle.-
Scarlette: ...Gus you gotta wait for me to say the thing
-Domino, being a bit stronger than Gus (and presumably the Yungoos by extension), is hurt just about the same amount due to the the Tail Whip.-
Rose: Peck again, I guess?
Domino: <I think there's something else I could do, but I'll save that for the next one.>
-He pecks the Yungoos again.-
Hau'oli City
-Vierr blinks-
Vierr: ...Wha?
Hau'oli City, Present
I vaguely remember Umbra, but isn't he too young to have a kid this old? ...Maybe?
-Star looks incredibly confused.-
Hau'oli City
Locke: People keep saying my dad went by "Umbra," so yes?
Alli: Hi Vierr! Hi Star! We think there's crazy timespace stuff involved.

Contact Me!-And with that, Yungoos and Rattata fall to the ground-
-The Yungoos quickly scampers back into their burrow while the Rattata gives an 'I'm watching you' gesture to Gus before they do so-
Ilima: "Looks like you both got your first one!"
"life is just a series of increasingly canon-eluding ao3 tags" ~ everydunsparce "Keep your hellfruit away from me, tempter" ~ also Every-To Star-
Wait, you didn't know about Umbra and Lina's whole "immortal" thing?
You know, if my hunch is right...
-Decides to try scanning Locke's Aura-

-Locke's Aura resembles Umbra's and Lina's as much as progeny of them would... Aside from the lack of self-replenishing life force and Obscura-
Locke: Tagg why are your eyes glowing
Contact Me!Verdant Cavern
Gus: <...Goodbye to you too?>
Scarlette: ...That was... something. Um, Gus, I'll let you rest a bit for the next one.
-She switches Gus out for Calliope, and goes to find the next closest burrow. Rose, meanwhile, keeps Domino out as she continues through the cave-
Hau'oli City
Vierr: ...Uh...huh. Just another J-Team day I guess.
-He raises an eyebrow at Tagg, then turns to Locke-
Vierr: Aura scan, he's looking for something in particular I think.

...Nope. Didn't know that.
-As Calliope looks in a burrow, a Yungoos Leers at him-
-A Rattata, around the same time, leaps out at Domino with a Bite-

Ever: Ha, yeah. He's kind of paranoid.
-he pets Muninn-
Muninn: -just sighs- <Whatever. If you get killed now, that just saves me some time later.>
Ever: So, you said you had a crew, but it seems to be just us...figure of speech?
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.No Obscura sensitivity, and he doesn't have their constantly replenishing life force. But is he a Faller?

-No sign of Ultra Wormhole energy on Locke-
Locke: -to Vierr- Um, okay, then.

-Calliope frowns at the Yungoos-
Calliope: <Wow, you're not friendly.>
-He spits a Water Gun at it. Scarlette sweatdrops-
Scarlette: C'mon, you're not waiting either?
Rose: You gotta be quicker to react, Scarlette. Domino, do whatever you were gonna try!
Domino: <Okay, let's see if I can do this...>
-After being bitten by the Rattata, Domino sweeps upward, then right back down on the Rattata with flawless accuracy.-
Hau'oli City
-Vierr simply shrugs-
-The Yungoos is sprayed with Water-
Yungoos: <Hey!>
-They charge at Calliope-
-The Rattata, meanwhile is knocked backwards by the Aerial Ace-
Rattata: <Gak!>
-As they utter this, some sort of play dough, cleaved in two, falls at their sides-
Rattata: <You shall pay for this!>
-They go in for another Bite-

-Calliope is smacked back hard, but gets back up no problem.-
Calliope: <Come on, is that the best you've got?>
Scarlette: Uh, Water Gun again!
-Calliope spits another stream of water at the Yungoos. Meanwhile, Domino is knocked to low health, and stares at the play dough stuff.-
Domino: <...Do I want to know what that was?>
Rose: Not a big deal right now, just use... Aerial Ace, I think? Do that again.
-Domino shrugs, and uses a second Aerial Ace.-
-The Yungoos is knocked to low health by this Water Gun-
Yungoos: <How about this, then.>
-They kick up some sand in Calliope's face-
-With this Aerial Ace, the Rattata faints in their own play dough-

Calliope: <Ahh!>
Scarlette: Uh, just— try again! Yeah!
-Calliope squints through the sand, trying to aim properly. Meanwhile, Rose kneels down to apply a Potion to Domino.-
Rose: You rest up for a bit, okay? Nora can take over for a bit.
-Domino nods and is returned to his ball, and Rose gets out Nora's ball as she starts to approach a third burrow.-
Gus: <Ow!>
-Gus yelps in pain, and tries to shake the Rattata off.-
Scarlette: Uh, Tackle!
-Gus tries to tackle it whether he succeeded in shaking it off or not. Meanwhile, Domino's Defense drops from the Tail Whip.-
Rose: -spitting out Yungoos fur- Ptheh.
-Domino sweatdrops, and assumes Rose meant "Peck", and does so.-
Scarlette: Rose, are you okay?
Rose: -pulling fur out of her mouth- Yeah, just a bit grossed out right now. >_>
