ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Followed the others curiously. With Mezzy's candy gone and the meatbuns devoured what better to do than watch on? This was a curious group that tickled her fancy, and her keen sense of adventure. Zap hopped after his master on all fours. On Zap's back he tugged Mezzy's bag, just in case the others needed to be returned to their pokeballs, or items were in need of loot— using.

The strange adventurer peered around the others like a leery Furret. For a moment it had looked as if she used her tail to hoist herself up and look over the others, but soon the strange, hoodie toting traveler snaked across the ground to get a closer peek at things as they occurred.

Zap seated himself by the entrance, leaning back on Mezzy's bag.

-gets Tangent's Text-

Uh...I have to go.

Ian: What happened?

Uh...Well....

Ugh, do I tell him about this or what?

Crewe's in a coma, Tangent wants people to check on her.

Ian: No way! Uh... Can we come with you?

Uh...Well, hopefully I shouldn't be there for too long, so no. Bye! -runs off-

Ian: .....Uh, bye.

:/

Nina: Did your sister just blow us off?

Dave: No, Really?

Shahinne -flies around Stratus's head — <Eeee, that's me, pretty Starly!> — trills — <I'm having fun times!>

"Hello there, Luke..." walks in to greet him, while Maekrite stays behind. "Yeah... well I hope this time it is all niceties. As for Harriet, well... she's been with Copahue and Shahinne the entire time, I only now found out she was here."

Maekrite — <You didn't notice them peeking inside of the room by the open window but you NOT notice a Volcarona on the other side?> — growls.

"..." Coughs, ignores what Maekrite said. "And apparently she's not been a problem at all."

Shahinne — <Not at all! Not at all!> — perches on Stratus's head.

"So this is... Comet you say? Interesting name for a Charmeleon..." Silent walks in and greets Comet by raising a hand as well. "Hello there, Comet. I hope you get to like being part of Luke's team..."

Silent blinks, then leans to Luke and asks in a low voice.

"You have warned Comet about our weirdness magnet right?"

Shahinne — <Much fun! I got myself an adoptive mom!>

Copahue -Beat.

Maekrite -Beat.

Shahinne — <😊>

-has calmed down since last night, obviously, but still keeps a distance from Rex(F)-

Mezzery's Room

Sulfur: *hides under the bed in the room*

X-Transciever: *appears to be fine, though covered in Gulpin drool*

Aqua: <Rrr.> *paws at Sulfur a few times before wandering elsewhere in the room*

Crewe's Room

Rex: *fidgets uncomfortable, noticing the state of the room* ...

Stratus: *Sweatdrops at Shahinne.* <...Ah-heh. That's great, little bird...>

-I suddenly feel Treeo's ball shake so violently on my belt that it feels like it's going to burst open. Thankfully, however, it doesn't.-

"Phew!"

Guardé: <Oh dear. He certainly won't be pleased next time he comes out.>

Woolly: *Nods.* <Poor Treeo...>

"Anyway, we've already let Comet know what's she's getting into. And, well..."

Comet: *Shrugs.* <I've seen stranger things then the stuff everymon's told me about. I think I'll cope okay.>

-My X-transceiver beeps, informing me of a new text.-

"Oh?" *Checks.* "Ah! A message from Tangent. Let's see..."

-Reads it.-

"...o_O"

Stratus: <Uh-oh. That doesn't look good.>

Chord: *To Comet.* <See? This is what our life is like...>

What's going on guys?

Rex: *to Anom* Judging by the state of the room, I'd say that Crewe got pretty angry...and then passed out.

Basket: -enters- <What's up here?>

Tangent: Crewe is not responding... and...

-blinks-

Wow, there's a lot of people in here. Um... OK, any ideas for figuring out what's up with her?

Harriet — <Uh... that's... that's not exactly...> — blushes.

Copahue -turns to Silent — <Errrr... we've been doing nothing bad I promise!>

Silent blinks, coughs awkwardness and decides to let the issue pass for the moment. He carefully grabs Shahinne off Stratus's head and then walks to Comet.

"Stranger things, eh?" smiles. "Well... uhm... you already know Shahinne... that Nidorino over there is Maekrite, my more-or-less communally appointed guardian, and the Fearow over there is Copahue."

Copahue -waves a wing — <Oh hai...> — tries to break the ice.

Maekrite walks in as he hears about the message. Silent hears too but says nothing. Instead he simply thinks in the terms of "what now" but with more expletives.

To Luke:

"Uhm... you know I'm looking for Dintel. Was looking around for him back at Goldenrod before I was yanked into all this madness..."

-Walks in-

It looks like a tornado hit...

-walks in further-

-To rex- Maybe the whole "I'm really a Sneasel" thing sent her into shock?

Comet: *To Silent's mons.* <Nice to meet you all, too! Guardian, eh? Interesting.>

"Oh yeah, I remember. Guess you haven't had any luck finding him. Tell you what, we'll help you look after we've helped Crewe out." *To everyone.* "Right?"

-Everyone agrees to help.-

"'Kay. We should be getting to Crewe's room, then."

Huh...

What do we do?

Katie: -heading to go help with Crewe when something catches her eye- Huh?

-the bushes rustle, something visible in them-

Katie: -takes a closer look, sees something sort of familiar- Amberjack?

-the shape disappears, running off-

Katie: -pursues- Wait!

Katie will stay with Luke and Silent for now. This is to get her there. She'll join the mindscapes a bit later.

-To Star-

That seems likely, but how are we going to get her out of this?

-Starts pacing in circles-

Maybe we should try entering Crewe's mind.

"Yes, Comet... it is an interesting story... he hasn't mentioned it in-RP though..."

Maekrite — <Guardian, yes...> — sits proudly.

Back to Luke:

"Thanks. In fact, I could use a Psychic with experience in buildings and human constructs to try and detect what happened to that shrew. Considering that my interns haven't called yet with any info..."

Silent nods to Luke's mons and returns Shahinne to the tree where Copahue and Harriet are perching.

"Now, Copahue, you take care of Shahinne while I'm away and don't. leave. too. far. Understand?"

A bit ashamed, the Fearow simply nods.

Maekrite -to Luke's team — <I guess we walk with you then.>

Entering her—

...Arceus, I'm an idiot.

Can you try bringing Mezzo in as well? We can't contact her with Psychic mons due to the obscura, but maybe Aura...

Basket: <Oh? I guess... it's a shot...>

Tangent: Hope it won't take too long to see what's up with her...

Entering Crewe and Mezzo's minds?

It's worth a shot, I guess...

-Scratches head-

Er, I've never brought someone inside someone's mind with me before, let alone this many people, so hopefully nothing will go terribly wrong.

-Sighs-

This Is Gonna Suck. Now everyone put a...hand on me.

-does so-

I hope this works...

"Yeah, let's go. Come on, guys."

-We head inside the Inn, making our way to Crewe's room.-

"Hmm, so you need a Psychic type to help you find Dintel, then? I could help with that..."

Guardé: <Oh! Oh!> *Raises a hand.* <Pick me! Pick me!>

Chord: <Yeah, if you never want Dintel to be found, that is.>

Woolly: *Bleats angrily.* <DON'T SAY THAT!>

Chord: <Whoa! Alright, alright. I didn't mean it...>

Comet: <Is he always this horrible?>

Woolly: *Sighs* <Yes...>

"Er, yes Guardé, you can help. Probably wouldn't hurt to bring in another Psychic type to help. Would you like me to bring Sol over?"

Steven: While I would normally advocate privacy, I think circumstances are such that we have exhausted all other options.

Katie: -has lost sight of Amberjack () but finds Silent and Luke- Oh, hello. You're friends with my brother, right?

-puts a hand on Tagg's shoulder-
