"Ken's Kafeteria" is set up right on the edge of the beach, doing relatively brisk business.

Ken: "Haha! Lookin' good, Taco!"

<Taco: "Hmm, hmm, hmm.">

Mezzo: Oh, yes it does!

He loves her so much, he would buy her all the candy in the world!

Mezzo: -heads inside the shop-

Geosenge Town

Pianis: Yeah. Should be easy to find since this town is pretty small.

And he loves her so much, he would climb a mountain for her!

Coumarine City, candy shop

Ever: Oh, it's warm in here...

-while all the candy in the world might be an overstatement, there's certainly a fair amount of it here. Interesting stuff, too-

Ever: Ooh, Red Vines.

-stick with the classics, that's our motto here at Memyselfand I 2 Inc.-

Geosenge Town

Amanita: Hmm...

-some wandering eventually leads them to...-

Geosenge Town Pool!

Aww, how sweet! A candy that shows how much they love each other!

Geosenge Town, pool

It's the perfect spot for a romantic swim in the evening!

Pianis: Well, this looks okay.

Glittering Cave

-Tangent arrives at the entrance to the cave-

Fuego: -is squirming in her arms- <Nnno! It's boring in there!>

Tangerine: C'mon, what kind of trainer would I be if I didn't let you see your family?

Fuego: <I-I don't have a family! They were shot by a mugger in an alley outside an opera house!>

Tangerine: ...

Fuego: ...

Tangerine: ...

Fuego: <You don't trust me.> :|

-In the background, the sound of footprints can be heard tottering around. It seems that Tangerine and Fuego are being watched…-

Tangerine: What was that?

Fuego: <Nobody! Nobody lives here! Ever hear of the Chamber of Emptiness? Here it is! C'mon, missy, let's go before nothing eats your pretty face!>

-A certain pair of Marowak enter the cave path, brushing aside some of the local moss-

Kat: <"… You *could* have come up with a more convincing sob story, you know?"> :|

Fuego: !!!

Tangerine: Oh hi Kat! And... Rising Sun, was it?

Sunrise: <"Erm… Yeah… Usually young ones like you tend to have more… Well. *Mundane* ways of losing their parents… Like fiends… Or illness… Or stumbling into the wrong time tunnel."> -_-;

Kat: <"… That last one is mundane?"> O_o;

Sunrise: <"Mundanity is relative!">

Fuego: <What are you doing here?!>

Sunrise: <"Well, we heard that some friends of ours were going to be paying a visit to your home tribe, so…"> ^^

Fuego: <Butbutbut you don't want to meet them!>

Tangerine: He's... been this way all day.

Sunrise: <"Oh come now, it *is* a chance to gather lore~">

Fuego: <But they're-!>

Kat: <"Plus we can see that secret girlfriend of yours you're trying to keep hidden from us."> o3o

Fuego: <I DON'T HAVE A GIRLFRIEND!> ._.

-At that moment, a young little Cubone with a rather ornate skull (with water themed patterns) hopes out of the shadows and rushes towards Fuego and co.-

River Lyric: <Rainbow Moonbeam! You have returned :D!>

-River Lyric runs over to Tangerine and co before sitting down in front of Tangerine.-

Fuego: <no…>

-Looking at each other-

Kat: <"… Rainbow… Moonbeam?"> o_ó

Sunrise: <"… Must be his normal paints.">

River Lyric: -Turning her head- HEY EVERYONE! RAINBOW MOONBEAM IS BACK! AND HE'S WITH A TRAINER~

Said menu, written on a whiteboard, lists standard Italian fare.

Cyllage City (previously)

OK, let's calm down... clearly this isn't working because you aren't properly letting go of my body.

Being a Lucario is amazing and all, I know, but it's for the best of us both if you give up any attachments not to your home body.

Milo in Audrey: <"Do you think I *want* to be in here?!"> >.<

Well why do YOU think you can't get out of my head?!

Milo in Audrey: <"Because I don't know any of your wibbly wobbly wavy voodoo, alright?"> >_>;

I swear, I'm not doing anything!

You've convinced me I don't WANT a buffoon like you calling the shots >_>

Milo in Audrey: <"That's the problem! Does it look like I know how to get out of here?! I'm already reeling from not having two tails like I ought to!"> X(

Well we have to do SOMETHING!

Milo in Audrey: <"Like what? Beating your head against a wall until I get shaken out?">

...

Unconsciousness MIGHT work...

Milo in Audrey: <"… I suppose it's better than just sitting here. Where's a nice solid wall to get smashed against?">

I don't think ANY wall is nice to be smashed against :/

Milo in Audrey: <"Look, do you want me out or what?">

10 Minutes, Several Bruises, a Snoutbleed, and -150 Or So HP Later

-Lurching from wall, cradling snout with paws-

Milo in Audrey: <"I... Dun't thingth dith ith workinth"> -_e;

Ow... watch my face @_@

Milo in Audrey: <"I dun pheel aby closer to gettinth owth. Justh much worth."> @_@

-It is at this moment that a certain Sandslash happens to walk in-

Gene: <"Oh, hello Audrey. What's-?">

WHUMP!

-Right as the form of a Lucario crumples up onto the floor-

Milo in Audrey: <"Agh…"> @_@

Gene: <"... Audrey?"> ._.

Glittering Cave

Fuego: ._.

-Spying the painted skull-

Kat: <"Hmm… I see they take after your kind more.">

-At that moment, a number of Cubone and Marowak come out from behind various rocks, nooks and crannies around the group. All of them have very elaborate and exhuberant painted skulls and some of Marowaks have long strings of bone fragments, rocks and crystals attached to the back of their heads-

River Lyric: -To the Glittering Cave 'bones- <I think they're friendly~ Whether or not they are is spoilers :3c>

Sunrise: <"Erm… No… The detailing seems more like your former clans-">

-And hears mention of 'spoilers'-

Sunrise: <"Uhm… What would those be?"> ._.

Kat: <"… Err… What?"> ^^;

Fuego: <I have no idea who Rainbow Moonbeam is.>

Tangerine: We call him Fuego! ^_^;

River Lyric: -To Sunrise- <I can't tell you! Then they wouldn't be spoilers~ :3c>

-River Lyric tugs Tangerine-

River Lyric: <We know~ We know~ Our hooman friend Fooly named him that when she caught him here, but we still call him Rainbow Moonbeam~:3c>

Elsewhere the GC 'bones start talking amoungst each other

Tequila Sunrise: <Duuudes, Rainbow Moonbeam is back, man.>

Flower Power: <I wonder if he's learned to loooove, man. Kid had so much negative energy->

-Blinking-

Kat: <"… Are they… Drunk?"> ._.

Ohm: -Meditating and Levitating- <I wonder if he's found inner peace.>

Sunrise: <"… No… I think something else is up with them."> ._.

Tie Dye: <Dudes, all of his skull paint is gone! That, like, took me weeks to do! All that paint, man!>

Kat: <"And nothing of value was- Hey!">

-Is gently nudged by Sunrise-

Sunrise: <"Come now, skull paint is- Wait, did you just say you spent *weeks* on his skull pattern?"> O_o;

Fuego: -is hiding behind Tangent-

Tangerine: So... this is your tribe, huh?

Wild Onix: <Buncha wussies, amirite?>

River Lyric: <Yep! Our humble little tribe! We value peace and love and happiness and goodwill and freedom and all kinds positivities!>

Fuego: <Gah T_T>

Tangerine: Your tribe sounds very different from most tribes I know...

Tie Dye: -Pointing at his Tye Dye patterned skull- <Does this look easy to you guys?>

-Flower Power puts a hand on Tye Dye's shoulder-

Flower Power: <Chillax, Tye Dye. Negativity is not go for the mojo, man>

-River Lyric looks up at Tangerine with big, adorable brown eyes.-

River Lyric: <You should come with us! There are more of us further down in the cave! You guys may even get to meet The Dude!>

Kat: <"… Did you just refer to your elder as 'The Dude'?"> O_o;

Sunrise: <"Erm… Well, I'm sure that in spite of some… Superficial differences, *surely* we must share quite a bit with them! After all, they *are* fellow 'bones!"> ^^;

River Lyric: <Yeah! Our elder is The Dude of all dudes! He's the mojo king!>

River Lyric: <You wanna meet him o3o?>

Tangerine: Yes!

Fuego: <NO!>

Kat: <"Erm… Sure?">

Sunrise: <"I mean, it wouldn't be terribly couth of us to not pay our respects to your elder, would it?"> ^^

River Lyric: <Yay~ Okay then, Follow me~ :3c>

-River Lyric starts leading the party further into the cave, the other Glittering Cave bones follow-

Fuego: <I'm staying RIGHT HERE!>

A Bit Further Back into the Cave

-a certain Eevee girl has become lost-

Forte: Where is everyone?

Shadow: <They went… that way. -points left with his tail-

Marine: <No, I think they went this way.> -points right-

Forte: Great…

-a Cyndaquil comes up the center passage-

Lua: <We came this way!>

<Navigation algorithm: keep your right hand on the wall at all times and you'll eventually get out!>

Forte: Okay…

-Forte places her hand on the wall and immediately yelps in pain as she happened to touch a nearby Ferroseed-

Forte: Owww!

Ferroseed: -blinks-

-she then places her hand somewhere else on the wall, and follows it along-

Ken: "You'd be surprised what I can believe."

Ken: "I can believe things that are true and I can believe things that aren't true and I can believe things where nobody knows if they're true or not. I can believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny and Marilyn Monroe and the Beatles and Elvis and Mister Ed. Listen — I believe that people are perfectible, that knowledge is infinite, that the world is run by secret banking cartels and is visited by aliens on a regular basis, nice ones that look like wrinkledy lemurs and bad ones who mutilate cattle and want our water and our women. I believe that the future sucks and I believe that the future rocks and I believe that one day White Buffalo Woman is going to come back and kick everyone's ass. I believe that all men are just overgrown boys with deep problems communicating and that the decline in good sex in [Poke-America] is coincident with the decline in drive-in movie theaters from state to state. I believe that all politicians are unprincipled crooks and I still believe that they are better than the alternative. I believe that Angela is going to sink into the sea when the big one comes, while [Poke-Florida] is going to dissolve into madness and alligators and toxic waste. I believe that antibacterial soap is destroying our resistance to dirt and disease so that one day we'll all be wiped out by the common cold like the Martians in War of the Worlds. I believe that the greatest poets of the last century were Edith Sitwell and Don Marquis, that jade is dried dragon sperm, and that thousands of years ago in a former life I was a one-armed Siberian shaman. I believe that mankind's destiny lies in the stars. I believe that candy really did taste better when I was a kid, that it's aerodynamically impossible for a bumblebee to fly, that light is a wave and a particle, that there's a cat in a box somewhere who's alive and dead at the same time (although if they don't ever open the box to feed it it'll eventually just be two different kinds of dead), and that there are stars in the universe billions of years older than the universe itself. I believe in a personal god who cares about me and worries and oversees everything I do. I believe in an impersonal god who set the universe in motion and went off to hang with his bros and doesn't even know that I'm alive. I believe in an empty and godless universe of causal chaos, background noise, and sheer blind luck. I believe that anyone who says that sex is overrated just hasn't done it properly. I believe that anyone who claims to know what's going on will lie about the little things too. I believe in absolute honesty and sensible social lies. I believe in a woman's right to choose, a baby's right to live, that while all human life is sacred there's nothing wrong with the death penalty if you can trust the legal system implicitly, and that no one but a moron would ever trust the legal system. I believe that life is a game, that life is a cruel joke, and that life is what happens when you're alive and that you might as well lie back and enjoy it."

Ken: "So. Try me."
