" Oh, that little weirdo? Yeah, they're in here"
The bouncer opens the door. The bar is visible. A Machoke and Bewear are having a arm wrestling contest. Several other pokemon are downing what seems to be a strange brown drink. The bartender is a scruffy looking Pangoro.
"Man, this place is the pits", Cyk whispers to herself..
Just made a server on discord.Come join me."Oh, that's cool. Nice meeting you too, Vox."
*I scratch the back of my head.*
"So like... what're we doing now? What's the plan?"
Are you ready? Go live!(I step inside. I bump the back of a Victreebel as I do so, and he gives me a very oily stare. Normally I'd be excited to be able to see a Victreebel in real life if it wasn't for the fact that this one looks as though he wants nothing more than to swallow me whole just for bumping him. I step back a bit nervously and hit a Tangrowth.)
Watch it, ya little punk! (He yells, threateningly holding up several vines in my direction.)
Sorry... (I say, backing away and making sure not to bump anyone else.)
("Why do we have to meet here?" I wonder to myself. "This is like the worst possible place to go, everyone looks like they want to kill us..." I begin desperately hoping that this place winds up like the bar in...whatever that movie was called where these thugs turn out to be decent guys deep down inside.)
"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here.""Hey, bartender, can I have some Belue Berry juice?"
The bartender passes Cyk the drink. She pays, then looks around for the Unown.

*Jani ponders for a moment, thinking* (She'llnote be cool with it, right? Mind readers know all. But Vox is cool, right? She let me leave the damn hospital FFS... Bolt at the first sign of trouble. )
I guess we should just wait and see. I'm ready to bolt at a moment's notice. *she says, and then whispers*
*after a couple minutes, Voxno exits the guild hall, this time in Unown-! form
◊, with a number of small brown bags and Jani's cart in tow. in fact, it is happily eating some berries as it leaves from a bag*
*Jani remarks to PJ* This is what I mean by "moody". Don't worry, she's harmless.
*of course, its ulterior motive is to get PJ and Jani to consume Koss' remedies, both for their sake, and for science* Oh wow, these berries are delicious!! You two look famished! Here, why don't you have a few?!
*Voxno telekinetically moves the baggie it was eating from, and passes them to Jani and PJ. Jani noms on a few* Thanks, Vox! I haven't eaten all day, now that I think about it. *she noms on Koss' remedies, which can't cure the aggression, but might hold it back somewhat*
These are delicious! Do you want some, PJ? *Jani offers them up to him*

Current WHABP alts: Jani (Sarah) the Purrloin, Hudson the Togetic. Tilly/Lilly (Digletts) are being Put on a Bus.Meanwhile, on the other side of the bar, a certain eyepatch-wearing Meowth and a certain female Golem are sitting at a crude, splintered wooden table. The Golem is busy scarfing down on a bowl of rather stringly, non-descript beans in a sauce, while the Meowth has settled for a simple - albeit large - glass of milk, resting his head on one paw.
"Bolda, d'ya have to eat like that, mate? Y'gonna get our arses kicked outta here!" Eyedol frantically whispered to his partner. "I still can't bloody believe that stupid bouncer let us in..."
Bolda abruptly stopped her rather messy eating and looked at Eyedol with wide eyes, wiping some of the sauce residue off her face. "A-ah... y-yeah, I guess you're right, it does look really... uh... not-tough. Though, I mean... if it were me, I'd be more worried about them... y'know... finding out why you're, um..."
Eyedol sighed and took a huge gulp of milk. "Yeah, I know... look, just relax. We aren't doin' this again. Just one more hit o' this, and then I'm quittin'. For real this time."
Bolda looked rather uncertain, but before she could say anything, Eyedol glanced over at the entrance, squinting at a group of newcomers.
"...Hey, hang on a tick... it's some o' those smart-arses from the other day. Bloody smart-arses. Where'd they get off criticisin' my actin' talents? I'd like to see them do any better. ...Huh, lucky the Unown don't seem to be there. It was obviously usin' some kinda fear ray or summat to scare us off. Glad you ain't got a great memory or I wager you'd blab that to the bloody bouncer, eh?" he said, jokingly.
"Don't say things like that, you know I'll get all flustered tryin' t-to remember what the hell you're talkin' about?! Like... wh-what Unown? Who are these people?"
"Never mind. Let's just hope they don't see us. Y'know, along with all the other wankers in here."

Those sell-by-dates won't stop me because I can't read!A Shiny Hawlucha was at the bar, laughing among some drinking buddies
Rawk Solid: I tell you boys, I play the public for chumps all the time! I practically have the media in the palm of my hand, they'll gobble up whatever cover story I'll tell them thanks to the credibility I've built up over the years!
The League of Heroes(Still full from eating at the other restaurant earlier, I don't feel like ordering anything and just sit down at an empty table.)
(I look around at all the activity going on around here. I hope no one tries to talk to me because I don't know what to say that won't get me beaten up or worse...)
Oh dear... (The Chansey says, coming out from behind her still damaged desk and looking Andy over.) Seems like he hit his head very hard against something. He might have a bad concussion. Oh, Dr. Star!
(The Clefable doctor walks over.)
This poor Joltik seems to have a head injury. (says Gloria.)
Well, we'll take him to the head trauma center and see what we can do. (The Clefable says.) Thank you for bringing him in. (He says to Niles.)
(Star and his Clefairy assistants take Andy toward a nearby room just inside a hallway.)

"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."Bolda catches a glance at the Goodra sitting with the group that Eyedol seems to be taking an interest in. She looks confused, but also quite intrigued, knowing that there aren't many Goodras with glasses around... and there was one before, but where...
Eyedol catches a glance at this exchange of glances himself, but chooses to simply roll his eyes rather than say anything. ...That is, until it clicked who she was looking at. "Bol, what the bloody hell y'doin'? Stop lookin' at 'em, they're gonna bloody come over 'ere an' mock m- uh... us!"
"Oooohhhhhh..." she groaned. "Ugh... m-maybe you're right again... I mean, they'd be totally right to mock me, g-given how much I suck..."
"Don't bloody say that. Just stop sayin' it. Neither of us suck. We're just victims o' fate here. Subject to a cruel bloody joke, mate."
Bolda doesn't respond to this, but can't seem to stop her eyes drifting over to the Goodra against her will.

Those sell-by-dates won't stop me because I can't read!I'm sorry, honey, but she came in here several minutes ago with some of the worst injuries I've ever seen. Even worse than mine. (Gloria motions to her arm and foot in casts and her black eye.) I'm afraid we aren't allowing visitors for her at this time.
(While looking around the bar, my eyes lock with a Golem across the room. Something about her seems familiar, but I don't know why. I continue looking around for Vox.)

"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."Oh, don't worry, it's not an inconvenience at all, don't worry. I think some time tomorrow morning is the earliest that we can allow visitors for the Braixen. (explains Gloria.) We'll let you know as soon as we can, honey.

"Hey, least I didn't lose all my artistic talent when I crash landed in the arena here."Bolda gasps and snaps her gaze back towards Eyedol, only to find him stealing some of her food.
"H-hey! Gimme that!"
The Meowth laughs but relents, letting her have the bowl back. He licks the sauce off his fingers. "Just keepin' you on yer toes, is all. Key to the trade."
Those sell-by-dates won't stop me because I can't read!"Well, come to think of it, I haven't eaten in a while... Sure, why not?"
*I take a bite out of the Payapa Berry I was offered and let its tart taste wash over my tongue. The sudden kick it provides my tastebuds makes me shiver, though the initial sourness soon makes way to a hidden sweetness as I begin to chew. It almost reminds me of some sour candies back in the human world, though this is obviously healthier and more organic. I swallow before addressing Jani and Vox.*
"Hoo, not bad, thanks."
Are you ready? Go live!

Are you aware of an Unown named Voxno?
(I step forward and say.)
