Owen stared inquisitively, tilting his head. Those prying eyes must have seen Koa's hesitation, not saying the full story. But he also didn't look like he wanted to press. Instead, he nodded and turned fully so he could face Koa. "Raising a whole team is hard," Owen said with a nod. "Full six?"

[[I don't think I can do conditional voting like this...]

"I get that," Owen said with some weight behind the words. "Wanting to fight... yeah. It's, uh, it's a little addicting. Maybe as a trainer for you, and... for a human who became a Pokemon, I bet it also must feel like something else, getting to fight and the feeling that comes with it..." He...

"I guess some people just get involved in a lot of things," Owen said simply. "Maybe that's what the Hero's Aura is." A chuckle at that, like he didn't take it seriously, but then he seemed to pause, considering it more seriously. Dismissing the thought a bit later, he said, "I just hope you...

"Oh, dear. I didn't expect this... Hold on. I have a solution." Eien pointed her head toward the sun in the far distance and focused. As it and the earth wound along, it stopped, slowly trailing backwards. "...Okay!" Eien said cheerfully. "That should give us some extra time to sort this out!"

DAY EXTENSION: Sparkle: 1 (Persephone) Hazel: 5 (Chibi, Yellow, Homestar, Phant, Sinderella, Fusion) No vote: Espeon, Goat Hazel would have been eliminated, but the first vote was cast after the final hour. Per the rules, the day will end in 6 hours.

"Maybe," Owen said, laughing. "Sorry. I'm gonna sound like Bahamut when I say this, but practically everyone is 'young enough to be a kid' to me. You know, with the whole... everything. I'm second oldest in the whole group by a long shot, I think... But, it's still a lot for someone to go...

"After all this time being in peril and worrying about the world's safety, it's gonna take some time to wind down," Owen agreed, sighing as he curled and then folded his wings. "When you spend over half a year so used to this kind of active fighting... It's hard to shake that. And you're so...

[[Applies to all days if the person being voted out didn't get a single vote before the final hour.]]

"Hey, Koa," Owen greeted without looking back. He probably 'saw' him all the same anyway. "Just a comic. Latest issue came out. It's too bad I won't really be around to see how it ends, but at least I'll forget all about it anyway. Maybe I can ask around when I remember things how it ended."...

There was a new system in place for Owen being able to get into his home. first, cal would go inside and fetch his Poke Ball. She'd withdraw him, go inside, and then resummon him there. Thankfully, the bedroom itself was large enough that, while it wasn't nighttime, he could go about as he...

Early evening votes: Sparkle: 2 (Persephone, Phant) Astrid: 3 (Chibi, Yellow, Homestar) No vote: Espeon, Goat, Sinderella, Fusion Four and a half hours remain.

Another night passes... -- Hana jerked awake with a start, heart racing. Even before she saw the chains, she knew. They'd come for her. She'd thought she would have more time, to solve this, to figure things out. She was so sure she'd been right, that she could really make it to the end. But...

Owen nodded. "Hey, Vix," he went on, "how about I teach you some meditation techniques? Maybe it'll help with some of that mental fog you have going on. We can start with the basics. Since our bodies are different, maybe just mental exercises..."

Owen grinned. "Y'know, I wouldn't mind that, either," he said, curling his tail around his body until it could get a hold of Vix. "I didn't really expect it coming in, but I think we have more in common than I thought. Maybe when we see each other again, we'll be more at peace with our past...

"I think either choice would work," Owen said, nodding. "Diyem would probably do a better job at restraining you, though, if that's what you're worried about. But if he refuses, you can grab me. How's that sound?":

Owen shook his head. "You can go with someone else, then," he said gently. "There's nothing wrong with needing support now and then, especially for something like this. Pokemon get by through working together, y'know? Even in human worlds, the best and strongest Pokemon are usually part of a team."

"Well, that's easier, because that's all their name!" Owen replied with a hearty laugh. They went by aliases for some and followed different titles for others, but they were all, in the end, Owen. In that sense, he had an easier time and harder time than Vix with her identities. "...I think...

Owen chuckled, the rumble enough to vibrate the wax around her body. "I've had more time than you to sort through it," he said. "I don't think that's a fair comparison. But..." He looked Vix over, frowning. "I don't really see how that makes things any different. It was still an old life, wasn't...

"I wasn't sure what to do, either," Owen admitted. "I totally froze up. Bahamut was right... When the time comes, I don't know if I have it in me to actually kill someone when I'm not... in that mutant mindset of mine. It makes me wonder if I should... let it happen sometimes, but..." He sighed...
