Lumiose City, North Pokemon Center

To: Lillianna
From: Diane

All right! See you shortly ^_^

-After an unspecified amount of time (but there's no way it's longer than ten minutes), an Alakazam shows up, gives a grunt of acknowledgment, and promptly vanishes with Lillianna and Liam.-

PEFE HQ — Skye/Diane/Alyssa's Module

-And here they are. Avada gives a dismissive wave, and leaves.-

-Of note, only Skye herself is in the room they arrive in, looking up from some sort of sketch. However, there is audible movement — not only footsteps, but large objects being moved — in the workshop module attached on the other side.-

Skye: Oh, hey. Lillianna and Liam, right?

Snowpoint Hospital

Kai: Heh, yeah, sorta. You look like you're doing better, definitely.

-They haphazardly make their way to a chair.-

PEFE HQ, Skylssane's Module

-Liam, who was less prepared for the sudden teleportation than Lillianna, gives a startled yelp, trips over and falls into a toolbox. Lillianna, meanwhile, simply nods at Skye.-

Lillianna: Indeed. And you must be Skye. A pleasure to make your acquaintance at last.

-It should be noted that they're both wearing hoodies, with Lillianna carrying a duffel bag slung over her shoulder.-

PEFE HQ — This Module Really Needs A Snappier Name

-Skye momentarily raises an eyebrow at the use of "at last", but doesn't question it.-

Skye: Yeah, that's me. Nice to meet you too.

-There's a crashing sound in the workshop, the distant sound of someone saying "whoops", a momentary pause, and a series of frantic footsteps, before a head pokes through the workshop doorway.-

Diane: Hey! Glad to see you got here without any trouble! I'm Diane. Alyssa's in here too.

Alyssa: (distantly) Uh, hi!

Snowpoint Hospital, Brie's Room

Brie: Well, anything would be a step up.

-she gives Kai's hand a squeeze-

I can move under my own power, I can feel all my limbs, I can breathe...they're not totally sure if everything's in perfect order, but I'm alive, and I'll be walking again soon.

PEFE HQ, What's Wrong With Skylssane? :c

-Liam tentatively sticks his head out of the toolbox to look over at Diane.-

Liam: Um, h-hi. I'm, uh, Liam. If you, er, didn't already know that. Which you p-probably did. Um.I'm going to stop t-talking now.

-Lillianna raises a hand in greeting to Diane, then turns back to Skye.-

Lillianna: May I ask where we'll be staying? I presume you all need your space here, just as we will need ours.

Kai: I'm glad to hear it.

-They return the hand squeeze-

Kai: ...I'm really thankful that you're alive. I've said that already, but... yeah.

PEFE HQ — The portmanteau is a bit scrunched up, is all!

Skye: Oh, that's what they're handling over there, actually.

Diane: Yep! Clearing out a storage room, turning it into something actually hospitable. Like, we don't really know what the deal is with whoever's looking for you, but we figured, maybe we could give you somewhere to really hide if things get tight? It might take a bit, but we can figure out a way to disguise it as a plain wall if you want.

Skye: But, like, still have a relatively reasonable living space behind it. We realize just at face value, "repurposed storage room" doesn't really sound super cozy.

PEFE HQ - How about "Lesbian Labs", then?

-Liam perks up as Diane outlines her plan.-

Liam: Oh, that's a g-good idea! I mean, if this place really is super-duper-secret I'm h-hoping we won't need it, but still...

-He glances up at the ceiling.-

Liam: Um, do you mind if I take a look at the alarm system? I'm g-guessing the circuits are all integrated, so I can't really t-tamper with them, but I might try and hook up a couple of p-personal devices, maybe see if my Porygon can talk to the OS...

-Lillianna smiles at her companion's rambling before responding to Skye.-

Lillianna: You can spare some of the creature comforts. Hopefully we won't have to remain in hiding for any prolonged period of time, and I am quite used to going without them regardless.

Drake: <But it's soooooo good.>

Shinji: <That's what the vampire would say. And look, you're leaving a mess everywhere. This is insane. We should look for Dr. Tagg and apologize for making a mess. And by we, I mean you.>

Drake: <You can't tell me what to do. You're not Tommy. Tommy would never get mad at me like that.>

Shinji: <He'll glower at you until you're too scared to disobey him. He never needs to get mad. Anyway, we'll beg for mercy like a bunch of scared little shuckles and then offer to clean up. You know, like how we did at Aunt April's place.>

-Kai grins-

Kai: You had to save some heroism for me eventually.

PEFE HQ — It's a working title, at least!

Diane: Oh, sure! We'll have to let Phoenix OS know, though, so he and your Porygon don't accidentally collide and cause problems. He's friendly, but we don't want to break our no-accidental-data-loss streak.

-Skye, meanwhile, shrugs at Lillianna.-

Skye: If you say so. We just don't want to give you, like, a cupboard under the stairs and call it a day or anything like that.

Diane: Oh, also! I dunno if either of you are a more large-scale tinkerer type, but if you are, feel free to ask to use the workshop. We'd prefer one of us at least be here to oversee, but as long as you don't mess with any of our projects, you should be totally fine.

...I'm fine. It's fine. ^_^

Let's keep the humor to a minimum for the next couple days, okay? Halcyon had to ban Ever from the room.

N's Castle, A significant amount of time in the past

-Pent sighs and just cowers behind the cover. He could... Maybe there was a way to just use the boss' theme against it but with all the fighting and terrible singing he couldn't focus on the words he needed-

Unless you want someone spitting bars back at you, you should shut up!

Somewhere, present

Duck, call up the-wait...

-Pent sighed and hauled the laptop onto his lap properly-

Now where did you put that list...

-He clicks through folders, trying to find where /Duck/ stores all the documents it creates on Pent's behalf and he pales slightly once he finds the file structure-

-Serially numbered folders, documents with incomprehensible filenames stamped with UNIX timestamps and abbreviated metadata tags. For a digital being it's a picture of optimal organization but without a being that could index everything automatically Pent was stuck with the option of either clicking through every folder and file looking for the Christmas present list or starting from scratch-

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

-Liam nods at Diane.-

Liam: Thanks! I'll, uh, I'll t-try not to mess with anything important. Or, um, anything at all, really, since I'm not sure what's important and what's not. Erm... yeah.

-A faint frown crosses Lillianna's face for a moment as she responds.-

Lillianna: As much as I appreciate the offer, we'd rather have some privacy when it comes to our own projects. We can make do with whatever's available in the storage room.

-Diane shrugs-

Diane: That's fair. Good luck with yours, then. ^_^

-And she disappears back into the workshop to keep getting the storage room ready.-

Skye: ...So, uh, hot cocoa?

-Inevitably, awkward silence proceeds, interrupted only by the sounds of things being shuffled around in the workshop.-

Snowpoint Hospital

-Kai, being the ridiculous lovestruck disaster they are, feels their heart flutter seeing Brie's smile after the events of the last few days. And it's noticeable in their expression.-

Kai: Well, I'm certainly doing a lot better myself. Minus the soreness all over from being struck by fake mind lightning. Pretty sure it's really just from, like, my body getting all tense on instinct from feeling that in the mindscape? Because there's no actual damage, just the soreness.

Falconan Mall

The group pressed forward and managed to avoid the attacks, Silas tossed a focus punch at a charging Front Soldier and sent them flying, "I'm gonna get used to being able to make full use of this metal arm."

Drakos opted to ignore Silas as they approached the subway section, it had been cleared out, "Okay the trains should be-"

The subway trains rocketed past, Drakos's eye twitched, "Okay... little set back."

Silas looked about and found a few odd looking pickups (Odd to him since he didn't expect them.)

"Guys I got a idea! Bishop you're with me, can you drive?"

"Yes Captain," Bishop responded.

Silas climbed into the bed of one of the trucks as Bishop stepped into the driver seat, Drakos took the other.
