Ian the Pikipek: Not this time! Piku-chan! Don't let Izaya escape!
-Ian the Pikipek calls on Piku-chan, who jumps out of his Ball to continue the chase-
Ian the Pikipek: Oshawittle, Raru! Ready?
-Oshawittle and Raru jump out of their Poké Balls-
Oshawittle: <Ready when you are!>
Raru: <Let's show these Mobius goons what we're REALLY made of!>

"That's not what I meant, Ian."
Des stands up a little straighter as he sees Ekaterina.
"Aw yes, one of the hosts. You guys really know how to throw a rager, huh? I am Desmond Descartes. I have to say you make a lovely Nicol Bolas."
Brushing up on that nerdy stuff was a good call.
GIVE ME YOUR FACEHalsei, being unable to avoid some of the oncoming attacks, takes them head-on, even getting pushed against a wall behind them, though...
Halsei: <...N-no, I'm not done yet!>
This seems to mainly make them angrier than before, and they get Worked Up over it, hopping off of the wall just as quickly and flying back at their enemy with a Jump Kick, though curiously they seem to be aiming at Infinite in particular. Even if they are fatigued from this fight, they don't want to show it.

-Pent looks just downright furious as he holds a hand out towards the only combatant not really tied up in fighting at the moment, that being the swarm of air-fish known as Chaos-
-He 'stands' there, arm outstretched and hand clenching tighter... As nothing happens. He has misjudged his target because really the power he is attempting to use was never used on a swarm of small objects before and it's pretty easy for those small objects to swim around the hand-sized wall of force trying to grab the entire construct's neck region which as a fish shape it doesn't really have either. Naturally that's just making him angrier-
-He'll need healing and calming down pretty soon, but with a battle this big that's unlikely to happen for a while-

Ekaterina Macraul: Ekaterina. And yes, I put a lot of effort into my costume and this little secure room for you all to party in. I am delighted we managed to capture the attention of so many of you.

But new tack!
Logan: You must be Multiman!

Pollen: -stare- <...>

Pollen: -sigh-
-and Pollen whisks Megan away down a nearby hall, as Pleth's copied power sinks into Vee-
VEE: -eye widens-
-the roiling power coalesces into a speck of incandescent green at VEE's core, power tearing free through her skin as titanic viridian thorns-
-she swells with the sudden influx of fluid, extending numerous tendrils◊-
-and takes a single, shuddering step forward-
Chaos!VEE: -baring so many teeth- <<Run away, little fishies.>>

-in a voice screaming down to her soul, she howls-
-Chaos the Wishiwashi school—and to a lesser extent, perhaps, any other Water-types or sufficiently other Water-aligned in the area—may experience a mental force like a riptide with teeth, a wave of intent so intense that it rips right for the hindbrain-

No mind to think. No will to break.Halis: "Oh, no, it's fine, it's fine! To be honest, I made the first mistake by just bumping myself into you instead of properly introducing myself... I'm Halis, and it's nice to meet you."
They bow politely... well, try to, anyway. They end up falling over from a lack of balance onto the floor instead.
Halis: "Oww... Uh, maybe this first costume was a bad idea after all. Don't worry, I'm fine, just need to..."
They sit upright and try to get up without using their arms, but it doesn't work and they just fall back down again.
Halis: "Uhm... this is awkward..."
It's clear they're nervous about something, but what exactly that is still remains a mystery.

Contact Me!Halsei bounces off of Infinite after landing the hit, but can't help but notice the whole Chaos!Vee thing happening, though surprisingly they seem rather unfazed by it.
Halsei: <...I don't really know who and/or what you are, but as long as we're on the same side I'm not complaining.>
With that being said, they immediately get blasted by multiple attacks... or, rather, their Substitute did, though obviously pulling off a fancy trick like that took some more of their stamina.
Halsei: <Aw, c-come on! Take a hint and give up already! You're outmatched here!>
They fire off an Ice Beam at one of the enemies they haven't already attacked, getting ever more frustrated (and tired) as time passes.

The stigmas, yes, he allows. But I try not to let it bother me. Try being the operative word, he chuckles. Not that I'm feared or anything, but the School... from what I can infer, is more a lab, he hypothesizes in real-time. I mean, some people are fascinated, and some people are - one person was - terrified of the J-Team's suite of systematic chaos, including, to an extent, my Obscuric affinity, he recalled.

Another door opened and in walked a androgynous looking being in a pink suit and eyes that seemed to refract light like gems, they blinked and stared at the party before them, "Huh. Hello."
Denali had arrived.
Silas chuckled a little bit, "Costume adhesive, got it from Alice, it's useful for dressup like this."
Roxy waved back with a smile as Silas continued, "And hello there, you must be Logan. Yeah I'm Megan's Captain, more importantly though she's my friend. And Elusive? I wouldn't say that."
Roxy walked up, "Easily distracted though, yes, very yes. He spends a lot of time in his workshop either fixing things, updating his database on his pDroid or designing a million ideas he's never going to build."
"Or writing up reports for Asimov. We still get paid to do space work after all."
Hacks had caught up with Silas, ~Yeah, they've made it boring... They've made space boring!~
"Well it was a inevitability."
Silas rolled his head a little, "So, enough about us. What about you Megan, what have you and Logan been up to?"

Wanderer: -To Brie, helmet visor clearing up so that his face is visible- We've been in the neighborhood for almost two years now by what I'm presuming is your homeworld's timeline. A couple J-Teamers we've met, but most of them remain unaware of us. And uh, it's Richard, other people call me by that title. Which is kinda weird when I'm just one of many Wanderer Corpsmen, but if it allows my comrades to operate more secretly it's fine by me.
Judith: -Doing the same- This has become quite the joint operation.
Pikachu: -To Pef- <Every big world traveler group is at least slightly familiar with all the others. Not exactly a big club as you might imagine.>
