Ren: -nods- <It's like what Sniffles tells me. Trainers are like parents. You love them a lot, but that doesn't mean you want to hang out with them all the time.>

Jab: -runs over to Lian- <Hey! If anyone fights the Liepard, it's me!>

Salamence: -flaps over- <You'd just lose again...>

Lian: *notices Jab and turns to him* <Wow, you have good...> *looks closely at him* <...ears.> *ears droop as she recalls Victor's Sneasel*

Ohm: *shuffles over to Salamence* <Hi!>

-Is now staring at the Piradex-

AU, Den of the Opal Eye AKA Eclo Canyon

-A bunch of poachers are catching infant Trapinch while keeping the Flygon parents away with netting-

Poacher Who Would Be Poacher Lennette In The OT: Aren't we sorta incuring the wrath of the locals here?

Poacher Who Would Be Poacher Phill In The OT: Nah, I've read up. There's this Oath thing that states that we are legally allowed to do this if they say the Trapinch appeared to us!

Poacher Who Would Be Poacher Lennette In The OT: Oh, okay. -Goes back to yelling to attract the Trapinch out of their dens and then catching them-

Yeah, that's probably true.

-Jab tilts head at Lian- <Something wrong?>

Salamence: <Hi, can I hug you? Trainer's ignoring me...>

Ren: <But your friends' Trainers are always cool.> -cuddles-

Lian: <Umm...no...> *gives a forced smile, kneeling down so that she's at Jab's height* <You look like a strong Pokemon. :3>

Ohm: <Sure!> *hugs Salamence* <Yay, you're soft~>

Rex: Ohm made a new friend.

Jab: <I am! >

Salamence: <Thanks...> -gives Ohm a pyrosac cuddle-

-The train stops on Kin Island, I get off and wander around Berry Forest, about half an hour before the group left-

Nice bree-AUGH!

-Trips on a pokemon egg-

...Where are your parents, little egg?

-Looks around to see no one, shrugs, picks up the egg-

-About 30 feet away, the corpses of a pack of pokemon very near and dear to the heart of another member of the J-Team lie, crushed and oozing venom-

Ohm: *is having the best hug ever~*

Lian: <Hmmm...are you going to evolve? I got a mustache when I did.> *rubs her stache* <I think it makes people confuse me for a boy, though...>

-Salamence is still being cuddly and is glad that somemon is paying attention to her-

Jab: <Oh, I don't want to evolve...>

Lian: <Aww, why not? Isn't evolving supposed to make you stronger?>

Minty: *waddles over, wanting to join in the hug too*

Jemma: *likewise* <...Mya. :3> *makes a cute face*

-Salamence gladly welcomes everymon into the hug-

Jab: <Well, yeah...but I like being a Sneasel!>

Lian: *rubs her stache in thought, liking the feel of it in her hands* <Hmmm...I guess that's cool too. >

Minty: *hugs Salamence* <Yay, so warm~>

Jemma: *secretly claims ownership of every and his mons* <   :3   >

Jab: <Thanks!> -nuzzles Lian-

Salamence: -secretly claims ownership of Jemma 'cause she's adorable-

-Shahinne doesn't listen to the Spearow, instead she looks attentively at what the weird-bug-creature is doing-

Shahinne — <Oh! A painting of me? It's because I'm really pretty~> — hops, gets closer, to pose for the weird-bug-thing.

-pats Ren on the head-

Felis: <Hey...you're supposed to be petting me.>

Oh, relax. She's not going to steal me away from you.

-pets Felis, who resumes purring-

Going to bed. Good night! Mezzo, do whatever you want with Ren. Keep her with you, return her to Wolf, let her sleep on top of Felis again, whatever.

-OU Dream World-

<Audrey: "Well? What do you guys think?">

<Leana: "You could have told us that those friggin' Mamoswine would be like that!">

<Audrey: "Hey, I said that they were difficult...">

<Buster: "Those things aren't difficult, they're pure EVIL.">

<Guy: "Eh, they weren't so tough...">

<Audrey: "You're not one to talk! You had all of your HP drained! So... Are you all reasonably confident?">

<Buster: "... You're sure that that psychadelic Mamoswine is an optional fight?">

<Audrey: "Yeah, just don't play around with those blue symbols and you'll be-">

<???: "Ex-Excuse me?">

<Guy: "... Wait, who was that?">

<Audrey: "... I think that's-">

-And wakes up, seeing a Fraxure standing before her-

<Audrey: "(*yawn*) Oh, you again? Is something wrong?">

<Delta!Fraxure: "Um... Well... I mean...">

<Audrey: "You're uncomfortable here?">

<Delta!Fraxure: "Uh, well... Yeah... Th-This place g-gives me the creeps... But... That actually wasn't what I had in mind...">

<Audrey: "Oh? Then what was it?">

<Delta!Fraxure: "How did you meet that Haxorus that you said was like me anyways?">

-AU PEFE HQ-

-A certain Flygon is dozing with a certain Gligar beside him-

<Gligar!Vlad: "Zzz... Whee! Again! Again!">

<Speck: "Zzz... But what do you see in me...? There's nothing special about me... At least nothing GOOD that's special about me... Zzz... ... Is there?">

<AU!Kat: "Has he been doing alright?">

<Karst: "Uh... I'm not around him that much, so I wouldn't know... I heard that the interns from the medical ward said that he's coming along alright with relearning how to fly with that balloon... But Speck sure didn't think much of it...">

<AU!Kat: "Hmm... So how have you been taking it here anyways?">

<Karst: "Huh?">

<AU!Kat: "Well... It's just that you seem so well adjusted... At least compared to most of the others from your same background...">

<Karst: "...">

<AU!Kat: "... Was I wrong?">

<Karst: "... I don't know if I can honestly say you're right... I mean, on one level, I guess you're right... I'm not afraid of anything here... But... On the other...">

<AU!Kat: "... You can't seem to shake your past?">

<Karst: "... You wouldn't know the beginning of it...">

<AU!Kat: "... I see... Well... Do you feel like talking about it?">

<Karst: "Not really...">

<AU!Kat: "As much as I'm certain that your past is something that you'd rather not talk about... If there's something there that's troubling you, it might be worth your while to talk it over with someone... At least, that's the way that it is among my kind...">

<Karst: "... I suppose...">

<AU!Kat: "Well... If you change your mind, I and the others will be there for it...">

<Karst: "... I'll keep it in mind...">

<AU!Kat: "Alright... I should probably get going though... It's late...">

-Turning to leave-

<Karst: "... Kat?">

<AU!Kat: "Yes?">

<Karst: "... Thanks.">

Anom, I'm still around, just having issues getting into the chat

Preened Spearow: <We can only hope the mantis has been candid at this time... let us take our leave.>

-the two Spearow begin backing away, with berries-

Scruffy Spearow: <She seems kinda nice...>

Preened Spearow: <She is a predator. Do not forget the fate of our molester there...>

Scruffy Spearow: <Kinda weird, but still kinda nice...>

-exit-

Scyther: <Good, good, turn around slowl- hold that pose!>

-continues her sketch-

-Felis falls asleep while being petted; Mezzo carefully takes Ren off her shoulder and places her on top of Felis-

-Ren falls asleep as well-

Good night, you guys.

-curls up and also drifts off to sleep-

-Ends up sleeping against a wall, Piradex in hand-

Night.

- Decided to let Tagg and Tracer go ahead, and catch up to them once I've told the others where we we're going and if they'd like to come along as well -

- In other news, Odette has found the Arceus plushie that has been laying around in my backpack since the GC, and dubbed it "Mr. Plushie". The young Ducklett is clearly not very good at coming up with names, but we love her anyways -
