(I likewise stay outside, not sure of what to do. The rest of the Goo Crew stays outside as well.)
Why are some people just so mean...? (Lucy says, kicking at the ground.)
(Marsha notices Benji still in his Lilligant form.) Benji, ya sure ya wanna be in dat form when we get this chick outta there? Yas might make her uncomfortable! (Marsha whispers to him.)
Good point, big sis! (Benji says. He transforms into Marjorie instead.)
"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."Topher breaks away from the kiss and glares at Jani. "Uh, excuuuse me. My girlfriend and I—"
"Datemate..." Aspen whispers, looking extremely uncomfortable and awkward.
"—were having a moment. So if you'll excuse my girlfriend and I—"
"Datemate."
Topher takes a deep breath. "—I would like to finish kissing my girl—"
Aspen flushes dark green and slams her hands on the table. "I am not a girl, and I am not your friend!"
(Richard decides to head into the scene and talk to Aspen:)
Hey, kid. Remember me from earlier? Come to my place and I'll show you what I meant by field journalism.
(He lands on her shoulder and asides to her:)
But first you gotta get rid of him.
(I stay outside and away from this, grabbing hold of Marsha's hand.)

Purrloin Jani by shrubBird
(Huh, so this is what's going on, huh...) *Jani thinks to herself, before saying* Well, you see, my friends and I are huge fans! *Jani manips dirt to give Aspen a pencil and the flyer to "sign", winking once more. She then turns to her party to say* I SAID MY FRIENDS AND I ARE HUGE, EXCITABLE, RABID FANS! *hoping they'll get the hint*
Current WHABP alts: Jani (Sarah) the Purrloin, Hudson the Togetic. Tilly/Lilly (Digletts) are being Put on a Bus.Dieter takes interest after hearing the Lilligant correct with 'datemate', but just observes, ready to intervene if needed, but considering the sheer number of their group witnessing this...
...Or they can take Jani's suggestion.
Oh my gosh, Topher! You're so hot when you misgender people!

"life is just a series of increasingly canon-eluding ao3 tags" ~ everydunsparce "Keep your hellfruit away from me, tempter" ~ also Every(My antennae twitch as I realize what's going on. I turn to the others) Guys, c'mon!
(I burst in with Delilah and Benji following me.)
WHOA! YOU WERE FREAKING AWESOME UP THERE DUDE! (I say as I run up to Topher.) You want to sigh my glasses?
Yeah you were amazing! I have a swimsuit that you could sign! (Delilah says, holding up her swimsuit.)
My two confidants here are quite the fan of yours! (Benji says, holding a piece of paper in Topher's face.) Say, you wouldn't mind signing this slip of paper, would you?
(Marsha and Dinah wait by Marlon.)
Well...uh...I guess dat's one way ta help the chick out... (Marsha remarks.)

"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."From across the room, someone else has also noticed what's been going on. Taking advantage of all the rabid fans distracting Topher, a Daylight Lycanroc with a dark eyepatch approaches Aspen.
"Hey, come on," the wolf says to the flower. "Let's get you out of here."
she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monster*I follow after Eliot, the swaying of his tail occasionally catching my eye. I'm not exactly sure why, but it's starting to mesmerize me, and I doubt it's a pheromone thing.*
PJ: "Yeah, then I got swapped with Jani — less fun than I hoped it'd be, her body was kinda eldritch to me — that got resolved, then I talked to Finley and her, wandered a little, watched the festival... yeah, pretty alright day. Better than most, at least."
(Except for... well, everything involving that one bodily detail. Speaking of which...)
PJ: "Oh yeah, remind me to talk to you in private later, there's something on my mind but I don't wanna say it in public."
Are you ready? Go live!Aspen lets the Lycanroc take their arm and lead them away, flushed with shame, trying not to look at anyone—especially not the Lycanroc herself. Topher stands up with a scowl and tries to chase after Aspen, struggling to get through the crowd. "Aspen, get back here! You're my lover!" He pushes aside the Goodra, losing his cool. "I... don't leave... get off me! I'm not going to let you get away, Aspen!"
they butchered the Punk Punk article >:/Noticing the shit about to go down, Finely follows behind Goobert, but takes a very different approach, putting up her Protect and getting in front of Topher to let Aspen get away. "Take a hint, man!"

I'm Huney B now. Okay?
Purrloin Jani by shrubBird
*Jani follows Aspen and Lisa as well, though it takes her a bit of time to catch up on the latter's identity* Wait, wait...who are... *and then it hits her* Wait, you're Sushi's uh...rival, right? I know a safe place to take her...follow me?
Current WHABP alts: Jani (Sarah) the Purrloin, Hudson the Togetic. Tilly/Lilly (Digletts) are being Put on a Bus.The Lycanroc gives a brief glance at a group of Pokemon with matching eyepatches sitting at a nearby table. The five of them nod, before turning to watch the commotion, poised to interject if things get out of hand.
As Jani catches up to them, the wolf gives her a one-eyed glare, but decides to follow her out the doors.
She turns to talk to Aspen as they leave. "How are you holding up? Are you doing okay?"

she magnificent my bastard till i complete on her monster[Hmm? A secret, oooooohh... Wait, I think I know what it is: it's the little...flip that happened with his Transfer. I'd imagine it'd be more than a little awkward having that happen to you; even when I was first like this, it was pretty awkward for me...]
[I then move on with what I did:] "Well as for me, Lucy got t'transforming in my body...she ended up turning into a Lapras, and she swam me around the water. We talked, then we got switched back..." [...fuck, I...I don't want to bring it up.] "...Lucy got signed up with...with Lilly, and I took 'em shopping for flowers, you saw their costumes..."
[I take another sip of my slushie.] "So yea...pretty, pretty good day on my end, too..." [My tone doesn't exactly carry that sentiment. He's gonna ask, I know it... As I take another sip, I look down at it. I remember why I'd bought this...well, we're heading to dinner anyway, I'll get some "fuel" while we're there.] "Y'know, speakin' a'secrets, I got a surprise for you guys once we get to their house. A'can't really do full Transformations now, but, uhh...I've got something I've been wanting to do since about yesterday night, actually."
Finley, having Protect on, manages to stand in place blocking Topher's path.
"I said stop."
I'm Huney B now. Okay?B-OOF!! (I yelp as I stumble backwards and fall onto my rump, nearly knocking the table over.)
Goobert! (Delilah cries as she and Benji help me to my feet. I look down to make sure my scar didn't open up. Fortunately, it didn't, but I have a dark purple bruise on my lighter purple stomach now.)
He is getting away, just saying! (Benji says, looking on as Topher attempts to go after Aspen again.)
(The three of us look on, wondering if Finley's Protect will stop him.)
"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."

What is Jani doing? (Dinah asks no one in particular.)
