Yeah! And y' know what? Let's just cut to the chase! (Benji says, suddenly tagging Lucy with a leafy frond.) You're it, Lucy!
Huh?!
(Benji takes off as fast as his currently small feet can take him.) Oy, this is not a tag-friendly body... (He mutters to himself in his normal voice.)
Treasure
Maybe it won't be that bad. (Cam suggests.) I mean, this stuff can't be too weird lookin' for them to reject us on sight, right?

I mean...at least they were already... (Dinah starts, and then she sighs.) I just...the thought of Pokémon eating other Pokémon has never sat well with me, no matter the circumstances. I'm sorry if I've been...stand-offish.
(Meanwhile, Lucy finally stop her confusion and gives chase, going after Benji first. Thanks to his current form's bulky leafy dress, Lucy catches up to him quickly.) Tag!
Gosh, this is really not a tag friendly body, just sayin'! (Benji says, shaking his head.) Hey, sis! Permission to switch to somethin' that can actually run in?
Eh, go ahead... (Marsha says.)
'Kay! (Benji then morphs into a Lombre instead. He gives chase.)
EEEP! (Lucy squeals, laughing and running to catch up with Niles.) Run Niles, run!

Purrloin Jani by shrubBird
Foxfell Kingdom, Main Road
Guess I'm getting ahead of myself, huh? I'm just super-excited about this! *Sarah would have a swing in her step, but carrying a 1.6lbs of Oran berries and two 25 foot ropes is really weighing her down, not to mention the side of it all forces the Purrloin to walk bipedally*
*as they continue to head down the road, they might notice that as Yukio described earlier, there is nary a berry to be found among the trees — perhaps the Foxfellians harvest them routinely, or perhaps they simply lack any significant yield at nature's behest*
*unbeknownst to them, however, they are being trailed...*
Current WHABP alts: Jani (Sarah) the Purrloin, Hudson the Togetic. Tilly/Lilly (Digletts) are being Put on a Bus."Eh, from the reaction I've gotten you ain't the only one who thinks like that..."
Salty pauses for a bit and decides to add something.
"...'Sides though, that was somethin' Dieter did. Ol' Salty ain't the type t' do somethin' like that."
"Good thing we stocked up, at least."

(Dinah sighs again.) You do seem at least to be a nice fellow....whether you're Dieter or Salty. I just hope I can get past what Dieter did quickly...
Well, he's been a Lotad before, but dat was years ago. (Marsha remarks.)
Treasure Group
I think the trees and bushes around Gleamscape had more Berries than these did. (Cam comments.) But then again, Foxfell is bigger, I guess.

*heading down the road, the sun seems to be nearing the horizon. Although confident in her own cat-vision, she knows they'll eventually need to find a place to camp. For now, she tries to make smalltalk by asking* So like...maybe we should get to know each other better? You guys sort of know where I come from, just an eternal traveler, brat of some well-enough-to-do merchants. But like...
Are you an archaeologist as well, Yukio...like Milo is?
And what brings you out on the road, Cam? Aside from the whole heir-not-heir thing...
And I hardly know anything about you, Hellbender...

Oh, yes. (Dinah says, nodding.) My mother taught me how to read before she died, and I've been reading ever since. My old place in Agartha was covered in books I've bought over the years. Do you like reading, Salty?
(Benji nearly smashes right into Nori as he continues running after Lucy and Niles.) Sorry!! (Benji says, vaulting over the owl-like Pokémon and clumsily landing on his face. He gets up and continues on.)
Keep goin', Niles! (Lucy giggles.)
Treasure
Well, I told you already that I got here by takin' the wrong boat out of Slak Rock, Sar. (Cam giggles.) Though...I dunno, I've always wanted to go on an adventure after spendin' so much time workin' at the store. Maybe that's why I didn't just hop right back onto the next boat for Gleamscape after landing here, 'cause I still wanted an adventure after I got the door slammed in my face back there...or maybe I was still concussed or somethin'. I dunno...

"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."(I thought about that escapee so much that time almost seemed to fly by and space seemed to take the shape of a hotel as opposed to the regal interior of the castle. I look up to the kids and some of the adults playing with each other. At the corner of my eye, I saw a Tsareena pass by the group and I might be certain that it might be the same one from Slak Rock. Nevertheless, I paid little mind to her and I spoke out to no one in particular.) I can't help but think about the advisor from earlier... Maybe I'm worrying too much.
(The Tsareena thought to herself that her time in Slak Rock was just a waste. All that sweet talking with the guards and watching over Silvio while he blows his money on booze, drugs, and of all things, a red carpet that got damaged along the way. She almost wanted to kick some sense into that deformed crab and that idiot son he tasked her to accompany, but she had to restrain herself for two reasons. One, it would just be uncouth to lash out like that and two, she needed Umberto's trust in order to take him down. Still, he did allow her a break for a few days, so she'll make the most of it in Foxfell. She approached the Luxio receptionist and greeted him in a voice that if some humanmons were to hear it, it would likely sound British.) Hello. I'll be staying here for a few days. "I treasure every day with you, darling." "No need to be so sappy, love." "You know that's how she is, Nia." - AU!Pyra, Nia, Mythra
"...?" Autumn quickly pops out of the inn.
"There's no dojo, guys. Where are you going?"
I'm Huney B now. Okay?Inn
Oh...there isn't? (I say as I step out of the way of the Tsareena who just came in (gosh, now that I've seen one, they look so awesome in real life). Man, I was looking forward to trying that idea I've been kicking around in my head out. Oh well.)
Oh well...maybe the next place we go will have one? (Delilah suggests to Eliot and I.)
(Outside, Benji catches up with Niles and Lucy and tags Niles.) Okay, Niles, you're it!
Aw man, we almost outran him. (Lucy says.) Well, you're it now!
(Benji and Lucy take back off the other way.)
"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."Inn
I do, too. (Dinah nods. She looks over to her satchel full of books and back to Salty.) You're...you're more than welcome to borrow one of mine and Benji's books. We have plenty of them.
(Lucy sees that Niles is coming after her and squeals. She proceeds to hop up the nearest tree and sits on one of the low hanging branches.)
Uh, Lucy, that might not be fair to Niles, just sayin'. (Benji points out, stopping and looking up at Lucy.)
"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."

Foxfell South Gate
Yukio sighs.
"That's a hurdle we'll have to cross when we reach it."
Tastes better on the way back down.
