Cabot slowly began to smile as a feeling of relief washed over him. For a moment he was worried that Nip only accepted his apology because he was assigned to be his roommate, but it looked like things would turn out alright after all. "I understand. Thank you, Nip," he said. "I really...

"H-Huh?! You really mean it, Nip?" Cabot stared back at Nip in surprise. While he'd hoped that Nip would accept his apology, he couldn't but shake the feeling that things were going a bit too easy considering how upset Nip seemed at the time.

Cabot gave Nip a hesitant look. He supposed it was a good thing that Nip didn't appear to be upset at him, but on the other hand his reaction felt far from genuine. "Nip...?" he began. "I... I'm sorry about what happened. About attacking you and all the mean things I said. Maybe that machine...

Cabot moved back with a start as Nip suddenly walked past behind him. "O-Oh! Nip! I..." Cabot fumbled for words as he struggled to think of what to say exactly. "They assigned me to you guys' room so..."

Logging another 3 hours of writing. Also logging my review for chapter 16 and 17 of LC, which should earn me 4 BLECs.

Chapter 16 Such a sweet moment to start things off with! I like it when Chibi has moments like these considering the edgy attitude he normally has. Damn, even Absol is getting tired of Flygon’s shenanigans. I guess this is the part where those security cameras come back to bite her. Ooh...

Cabot blinked in surprise and stared back with his mouth open. Celeste... was apologizing to him? "I-I mean you don't have to say sorry to me! I'm the one who started attacking everyone and said all those awful things to you... and Nip..."

"I think they just assigned me at random, or maybe they thought it was practical or something since three 'mons can easily sleep here, but only you and Nip currently are..." An awkward silence filled the room after he finished speaking, prompting Cabot to shift uneasily. Part of him was okay...

"Apparently they don't want us to take up more rooms than needed, so they assigned me to sleep at this room... you guys' room."

Cabot nervously approached the door to his new room. While he wanted to talk things over with Nip, he certainly hadn't expected to get the opportunity by being assigned to the same room as him. Not only that, but this was Celeste's room as well, the other member of his team he had said some...

"Thanks! Best of luck to you as well," Cabot replied, before letting out a small chuckle. "Especially you, Meringue." The Cranidos gave the two a parting wave, before turning and setting off back to town. <><><>

Cabot smiled and wagged his tail a little. Lugia really was a wise Pokémon. "Alright, I think I'll try talking to it then once I get back to the guild," he said.

"I mean... I know how much trouble it's caused you," Cabot said. "I wouldn't wanna try to befriend it if either of you are bothered by it, especially since I'm still not sure how I feel about this myself."

Cabot blinked. "You two wouldn't mind?"

"I don't know," Cabot sheepishly said. "I haven't really been trying to talk to mine, so I can't say for sure. The others did say that they don't know about the situation themselves though, which is why they can't lead us to Darkwhite."

"I promise I will," Cabot said, putting the lump back into his bag. "If it makes you two feel any better, I've been keeping this rock at the bottom of my bag since that fight with Darkwhite. When I found out that there was a Shade inside I've tried to avoid thinking about it too much, since...

"That's right. It seems like these strange stones are able to absorb them somehow," Cabot replied, holding his lump up so that Lugia could clearly see it. "And, well, I don't disagree about the Shades being terrible, but it seems like when we hold onto a stone with a Shade inside we get stronger...

"We don't really actively hunt Shades, but we do try to contain any we can find," Cabot explained. "And, well, I know some of my teammates have been keeping them as pets, but..." He hesitated a bit before continuing. "It just... doesn't feel right to me. The Shade in here is the same one that...

"I think it has something to do with how Diyem created these bodies... I'm not really sure how it works exactly myself," Cabot admitted. "At least it allows us to see Shades as well. We wouldn't have been able to capture them in these strange rocks otherwise." He held out his lump once more.

Cabot blinked and looked up from his Lump. "Oh, had Meringue told you about that? But I was just exploring Destiny Village when I noticed you two. I hadn't seen either of you since the fight, so I guess I just wanted to see how both of you were doing after everything that happened."
