[I jump around to find that PJ's come out from under the bed. Spooky.] "Y-yea, I'm j'st—" [I yawn again, covering my mouth.] "—ahh...yea, it was good." [I scratch the spot between my eyes, still feeling that grog from earlier. With a satisfied grunt, I stretch out my back and arms, standing on the tips of my—] ZAAP! A stray bolt of electricity jumps from my hand to the ceiling, leaving a scorch mark near the hanging candle holder. It's not the only one, as one is on the back wall and another is on the ceiling towards the corner to the right of the bed. "Gaoh!" [My hand! It— ...it's fine? But I could've sworn it...it burned for a second there...]

*still in Unown-V form
◊, Voxno tells Andy*
Unfortunately, I do not know where Lars, Max, or Bash went. They had no destination in mind while they were in range for a read, so they can be anywhere. Plus I think Pres has other plans for them.
*then shifting back to the ditzy Unown-! form
◊, Voxno proclaims to Wrench*
Silversand is the awesomest town ever! They have all sorts of fun and games for tourists, gorgeous beaches, and food from all across the planet! Even our scout who came back last night had a blast!
*pauses for a moment, but remains in Unown-! form* Oh cool! I sense everyone is awake now, even your friends inside!
Current WHABP alts: Jani (Sarah) the Purrloin, Hudson the Togetic. Tilly/Lilly (Digletts) are being Put on a Bus.*I take flight, looking at the scorch mark left by the jolt Eliot shot out.*
"Ooh, uh, that ain't normal, is it? Oh, who am I kidding, of course it's not Normal, it's Electric! Ah? Ah?"
*A dopey smile appears on my face as I look to see if Eliot has any reaction.*
Are you ready? Go live!"...c-could we no—GAAH!" [I spin around to see...no one else around. Okay, what was that...wait, is this another Psychic? Oi...]
"...okay, I think someone's trying to telepathize with me here...here lemme—"
{Hello...Larson...name's Eliot. Do you mind some, I'd...rather not have you...do this, please...where the hell are you anyway?}

*sensing the impending peek, the ditzy Unown-! form
◊ flies up to Eliot's window and comes on a bit strong*
Morning sleepyheads! I'm Voxno, and I'll be guiding you guys to Silversand Town! It'll be so much fun! *possibly muffled, if the window's closed*

Current WHABP alts: Jani (Sarah) the Purrloin, Hudson the Togetic. Tilly/Lilly (Digletts) are being Put on a Bus.Mila pokes her head into another room, finally coming across PJ and Eliot.
"Oh, hey! Better get up, I think everyone's almost ready to leave for the coastal town. Oh, uhh, are you guys all right?"
As Mila speaks, she notices a slight sense of panic coming from Eliot, though she's unsure of what exactly might be the cause. After everything that happened, she's all but forgotten about the Sketch from yesterday.
I need to update these things more often{I'll show myself, just...no more telepathy, Marvin, 'specially not this early in the morning.}
[Okay, I'm getting three people talking to me at once, and hopefully, one of them is taken care of...there seems to be someone trying to reach me from the window, and Mila just waltzed in...]
[I go over to her first, she's the more familiar of the two.] "C-coastal town? S'that where we're headin'? ...oof, I don't really feel so good...and PJ made a pun for..."
*Meanwhile, just outside Milklett Village...*
Further inland, this particular section of the island was covered in a thick fog that made seeing anything ten feet in front of you quite the task. Even in the middle of an otherwise-completely flat section of farmland, the only sign that there was a town here were what looked like some distant fires. The whole area was completely silent, barring the sound of heavy rain trickling against the ground.
That, and the squelching of metallic hooves against the mud, as a female Bisharp without a blade atop her head paced up and down with her hands clasped firmly behind her back, waiting for... something. Or someone. And soon enough, that someone appeared, running in. A Pawniard, to be exact.
"Kapitani Khmalidze!" the Pawniard said as he stopped to salute his evolved form, catching his breath at the same time.
The Kapitani turned around to look him in the eye, her hands remaining firmly locked in place. "Sitrep".
"Sitrep? ...Oh, right. Th-there doesn't s-seem to be anyone here, ma'am. The village is... how'd you put it... in shambles. Only thing I can see is debris, and milk bottles. A lot of milk bottles, though."
The Bisharp sighed and shook her head. "Just as expected... signs of the past. Happier times. Never good," she opined, speaking in what sounded like a hybrid Russian/Middle-Eastern accent. "You are certain there's no-one here?"
"P-positive, ma'am."
"Hmm... certainty the first time. Never good. ...Find the rest of your platoon. I want them to sweep this backwater from top to bottom. Every nook and cranny. No stone unturned. Et cetera, et cetera."
"Yes, ma'am!" the Pawniard soldier said before rushing off. Khmalidze unconsciously found herself scratching her helmet. As much as she hated to admit it, she couldn't stay outside in the rain for very long. Not with the risk of lighting. ...Knowing the weather itself had a type advantage against you just provided yet another reason why this world's existing order was just plain wrong.

Those sell-by-dates won't stop me because I can't read!Mila looks worried, and moves into the room to the two in an attempt to reassure them. Not that they necessarily needed reassuring, but it just felt like the right thing to do.
"Yeah... Shiversand was it? Anyways, if you don't feel good we can always go slow, but with how long we've been staying here and what Jani mentioned about a possible warlord looking for our heads or something, I think it's high time we got out of Orichalcum. Why don't you go and get a berry from the pile downstairs. We've almost finished it, and it wouldn't be good to go travelling on an empty stomach, huh?"
Jeez, am I turning into a parent or something? I feel like my own mother, for some reason. Eh, I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually. First things first, we need to get on the road.
I need to update these things more often*Startled, I look out the window at the Unown, a bit concerned and curious as to where they came from. As Mila enters the room, I turn to her, trying to disguise my confusion.*
"Hey Mila! I think El's shooting out electricity? Must be short-circuiting or something."
*I give out a little snicker, almost like I'm subconsciously trying to goad Mila or Eliot into laughing as well.*
"So, we're heading out already? I mean, I figured we wouldn't be staying here forever, but this is kind of a surprise for so early in the morning. Eh, whatever, I'm down with it."
*I flutter over to the doorway.*
"Coming, El?"
Are you ready? Go live![I paw at the air.] "Yea, I'm comin'..." [So that's what that was.] "Feh" [...should've known Sketch would've kicked in at some point. At least it's something of a minor inconvenience at the moment...I'm glad I didn't start a fire with that if that really was Discharge.]
[I look around the room. Low-key, I think I'm gonna miss it a little; a little bastion of constancy in this chaotic world. ...wait, now I remember...that would've been bad to forget. Went and got more paper last night, made a little notebook out of it poking holes through the pages and threading some string through it. I go up to the chest and open it, snatching up my makeshift sketchpad and a couple of pencils.]
"Alright, I'm good...let's head for the hills or whatever the f**k we're..."

"Electricity? Oh, that's probably... anyways. Hopefully it works itself out soon. Let's go!"
Mila pushes open the door, and waits for the two to leave before following behind them.
I guess the Sketch is coming up. I hope this goes better than last time, especially if everyone's prepared. Anyways, how about I don't let whatever happens get me into a completely uncalled for sulk for the rest of the day. That sounds like a good idea.
I need to update these things more often
