"And I have to respectfully disagree," Nero said, shaking his head. "Brisa's response makes me even more certain, actually. You didn't summon Bahamut... you summoned his empty husk. He has some of the memories, clearly, but there's no telling how accurate they are. It's entirely possible they've...

Nero cheek bolts rotated again. "It's not something I've seen, but something Ho-Oh taught me about. The idea of a soul separated from its body." He glanced at Bahamut. "The soul retains the key personality aspects. The way the person thinks and acts, their core beliefs, and hopefully memories...

"Stop staring at me," Bahamut growled. Nero's eyes flickered blue, then pink, then black. "Hmm." His cheek bolts rotated. "Hey, uh, quick hypothetical here, Diyem. What would happen if you brought a soulless husk to Cibus?"

Bahamut slapped Diyem away. "You're the last person I want assistance from." And Diyem would see a flash of what Nero and Brisa got. The same mask. Five eternatus heads grabbing Cibus and squeezing it like an orange...

Bahamut eyed her silently. There she was, trying to fix things again. Always wearing her heart on her sleeve. Trying to take the empathy route... instead of sympathy, like her partnered shade. He glanced down at the golden glow. And then it happened again. A chink in Bahamut's mental armor...

"Saved?" Bahamut leered at Eien. "You're not looking at the bigger picture. There's still some... remnant floating about somewhere. And now that the team needs to recuperate from that ridiculous show battle we were roped into, the remnant has additional time to fester and grow. Perhaps there is...

"I'm not— ugh, never mind." Nero shook his head and quickened his pace around the building. Bahamut was already rising into the air. An eerie aura surrounded Nero's head. His Scary Face projected itself above Bahamut, hampering his attempts to fly off. "Nrrgh." The necrozma's upper right wing...

While Nero was tempted to try and follow Bahamut, the Colosseum fight and left him drained. It was tempting to dismiss that, since all he'd done was eat a few hits before getting literally firebombed to death. But in the back of his head he was just happy that Cibus was happy with the outcome...

Logging my final set of stuff. Two sets of writing challenges and beta reading chapter 119 of HoC.

After managing to reawaken, Bahamut surveyed everything. In the end, both sides had completely exhausted themselves for mere entertainment. Now Team Spectrum would need time to recover... which would give whatever adversary still remained additional time to fortify itself. "... well, I...

Chapter 23: Troublesome Testimonies The aftermath of the fight with Baptiste was surprisingly quiet for Yuna. After over a week with Reshiram's presence focused on her in some capacity, he was now occupied with getting Rayquaza up to speed on Team Bastion's… situation? Journey? Quest...

Bahamut frowned. "This isn't an action piece, don't telegraph your attacks like that." "Wow, someone's allergic to fun," Nero said, rolling his eyes. "Nothing about this is fun." Bahamut tapped his tail impatiently on the ground. "Surely you think the same. You haven't done a damn thing other...

"They definitely are getting weaker." Bahamut mimed yawning into his wing. It felt like this was becoming some sort of show battle. He didn't agree to such stupidity. Perhaps now was the time to make an exit and go do something actually productive? "You want to walk out, don't you?" Nero raised...

Nero tilted his head at Bahamut. "... huh. He just absorbed some of Sage's attack like it was nothing." Bahamut smirked. "Jealous, are we?" "Not really." Nero's ears drooped and he looked down. "I just think it's a bit sad that someone who basically has no friends among his team also seems to...

"... or that could happen," Polaris quipped. Bahamut's wings sagged. "I'm so fucking tired of this planet."

"You're the one who firebombs enemies," Bahamut called at Brisa. "Lightning-bombs, technically," Polaris piped up. "... whatever. Point is, it can't be invincible." Bahamut crossed both sets of wings. "Maybe it just needs to be handled with violence?"

"Oh, for pity's sake, just kiss already!" Nero crooned, rolling his eyes. "Can someone please put a muzzle on that mutt?" Bahamut snarled. "I'd be happy to. Just forfeit first!" Nero fired back, though he sounded perfectly sincere. Bahamut gnashed his crystalline beak in frustration. "Bet you...

"Nah, I think that'll do it." Polaris wiggled excitedly between Pleo's feet. "The views were great! Can't wait until I have more mass and can actually go underwater..." <><><>

“I think it's better this way." Polaris sighed. "Bahamut seemed to imply I wasn't a very good person originally. Not that he's a good person, either."

"Don't remember anything. Sorry." Though Polaris didn't seem remotely bothered by it.
