Channah: Mm. And even those people aren't here with you right now so you're stuck with me. -grins- But yeah. The group seems a lot changed even compared to when I joined. Time goes fast.

-Grinning back-
Could be worse, I suppose. I could've been trapped in here with Tokarev or Constantin Or both, but instead I have my mons and my girlfriend.
Benkei: -Appears to be attempting to spar with a Kartana-

Channah: Pfft, right. Roadtripping with those two would not be great. Good thing I don't have any nemeses to add to that list. Hey, uh, so what did Ever do to get sliced by one of these guys? -motions to the Kartana-

-To Channah-
Well there is that evil twin of yours, if he shows up again.
Benkei: -Dodges a swipe that could've likely removed his tail in a non-friendly bout had he not dodged in time, and fires a Focus Blast-
Kartana: _X_
Kenji: -Picking up his felled mon- Darn it, guess we've got a bit more training to do. Your partner must be really good if he doesn't even tell you how to fight.
Benkei: -Starts doing a victory dance, scales clanging, before glowing in the midst of a victory cry-

-To Channah-
Seems like it.
Kommo-o!Benkei: -Roaring as the glow dissipates- <Finally!>
Muddy: <So he finally lives up to his name, huh?>
Helios: <Well, not unless we leave here with about 999 Kartana behind us.>

Channah: -claps a couple times- That'd be - a lot of battling. Seems like not long ago I saw him evolve the first time. -sighs- Man, I need another three-tier Dragon-type. Like Van. Lib, you remember him?
Liberty: <Of course! He pulled us out of many a tight spot.>
Channah: Yeah. He didn't put up with any of my bullshit, unlike the rest. -stretches- Anyway...
There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.
Silas stared at the text, "We got a bit before we need to pick the others up. Bishop chart a course for PEFE, I got a meeting to do."
"Of course Captain."
Roxy stepped out wearing the Fox suit, "Ooo it's comfy!"
"Comfort is important considering the idea is wearing that a lot."
"So what's it do?"
"Enhanced strength and agility through electrocontracting artificial muscles, not as powerful as the set used for the Hardsuits and their exoskeletal frame but still."
"Anything else?" Roxy asked looking herself over.
"Some optic camo based around colour correction, helps make you recognizable but keeps the suit invisible in the dark. Standard optic set for the helmet, though the hood is aesthetic as you asked."
Roxy pulled the hood over and grinned a bit as she looked in a mirror at the foxmon like ears on top.
As if things couldn't get worse, the fighers were soon harassed by a large yellow fighter, over the comms came a voice familiar to Silas and Lyra, "HEY EVERYONE! WHERE'S THAT POOCHY BOY OF YOURS?!"
Silas shuddered, "Dexter... what are you doing here?"
"I got hired by the Front, they'll pay real well to keep you off their-"
The yellow gunship came under fire as out flew four sleek black and green fighters.
Over the holocoms came the backup.
"Logan here, leading Stellar Doom to victory."
"Chase here, I can fly!"
"Shifter, a pleasure as always."
"Kevin, Logan's enemy is my enemy, and that pig needs to burn!"
Logan looked at Silas, "Hello again Lucario Boy. Seems we share a common foe."
Silas grinned, "Seems we do, care to keep him busy while we deal with this super carrier?"
Logan nodded, "Been wanting a shot at this traitor for over a year..."

A dragon? Well, when we get back, that can be... arranged.

-To Channah-
Well Deino kinda fit your aesthetic and it's not like I'll be seriously training the rest of Hydreigon's clutch any time soo-Really? How so?

Channah: Uh, it's just - I dunno if it's the nature-y outdoorsman in you or what, but you always have a better relationship with, with Pokémon than I ever have. Anyone else with that many mons is just awkward, but it seems natural for you to be surrounded by em.
There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.

-To Channah-
Well, when you're an autistic black kid who people think is a weirdo, Pokémon tend to be far more straightforward that humans are. Beat being in school. Seriously, fuck junior high.

Channah: Yeah, that makes sense. I was raised around Pokémon, but I've always been awkward with both them and people. -beat- ...Wait, really? You'd give me one of your Deino?

-To Channah, taking her hand-
Yeah, I would. I mean, both of my girlfriends have given me mons so it would be nice if I did the reverse for a change.

-To Channah-
I have absolute faith in you.
This would probably be the part where we kiss or something, but it seems like the rest of my body has trouble moving...

Channah: -hesitates for a long moment- ...Hey, uh. Could we maybe, like. Uh, spend the night together? Imean - Not together, but - literally sleeping? It's just, we are... Y'know. Dating. Like, together. Oh shit. -immediately looks like she wants to restart that whole thing-

The Wanderer
Ultra Forest
-Reddens slightly at the first portion of Channah's statement before hearing the rest-
Oh you mean sleeping together as in we're literally sleeping together and not as in the "having sex" kind. Not sure if I'm ready for that yet to be honest, asexuality and all, haven't done it with Sol yet.
-Takes a deep breath before responding-
Yeah we can do that.

Not A Lawyer
Phenac City
-Alice is sat in the Faction's office, reading the Jackal's message on her phone.-
Alice: Hmm...
From: Gaia
Despite our lack of prior correspondence, I would be willing to assist. I have some experience in the field.
Lissa: Getting back into the game, huh?
Alice: I have the resources at my disposal. It seems foolish not to employ them.
Lissa: S'okay, you can admit you just like dressing up. It's cool with me.
-Alice punches Lissa on the shoulder.-
Pewter City
-Lucius is sat outside at a corner cafe, wearing his usual sweater with the right sleeve tied up and sipping at coffee.-
Lucius: Wonder how that Halis kid is doing. Maybe I should shoot them a text, ask them what's up?
Falchion: <Don't ask me. I'm not good with strays.>
Trans rights are human rights. JK Rowling preaches hate. If you sit at a table with five bigots and say nothing, there are now six bigots.

/Arwing/: Egh, hard nut to crack here...
-/Duck/ keeps up the evasive maneuvers and shooting-
/Arwing/: I hate having to sim on the run...
Nimbasa Hotel Room, Now
/Duck/: >Alright sir we're on the signup list and waiting on transport.
-Pent is busy getting dressed but gives a brief thumbs-up-
/Duck/: >Should we prepare a full rollout or..?
-There's a pause as Pent ponders that-
Have Shift keep up appearances and keep the bag safe, I don't need him on this mission.
/Duck/: >And I?
Prep a transfer to phone. I could use some tech assistance just in case.
/Duck/: >Would you like something to eat before we leave?
I'll just have a snack bar and some water from the bag.
/Duck/: >Alright, checklist complete. Ready when you are.
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.
