    Skill Swap Shop

    Sleet snickered gleefully at Wes' nonplussed reaction. People were usually weirded out by her talking, but these other-dimensional humans were especially weirded out. Mostly. It was fun. And this boy was awkward. Sleet liked awkward. "Wessz, rrright?" she rasped, sidling up to him. "Let'ssz...

    Laura pulled a face, tilting her head to look at the marking from different angles. "I guess? A circle doesn't have to be an initial 'O', but it could be... It looked like Sigmin and Nox each headed a different way. Maybe Nox's tracks can tell us something else...?" Sleet signed fluidly and...

    "Malachai's a noivern," Laura answered, practically reeling off the information on automatic by now, "but he's an Atlantic bluewing, so he's a lot bigger than the more common inland noivern. You don't need to worry about him, you know; he's fully sapient, and smarter than most humans. I, uh, saw...

    "Pleasure to meet you, Neo, Novo and Wes," said Laura, smiling. She chuckled at Neo's high energy and adorable demeanour. "Sushi's pretty good," she added, as an aside to the espeon. "I hope we get your friend safe so that you can share some with them." Malachai rumbled pleasantly at Novo. What...

    "Aha, looks like." Laura waved and smiled at Jade, powering through her own awkwardness at Malachai's private telepathic prompting. <Come, girl. She's more anxious than you are. Do her the service of keeping up your chin.> Then there was the bloke with the 'vees. The wary umbreon, the friendly...

    "Again?" <It's not so surprising. For each location living things are drawn to, their being drawn to it draws others. We are attentive to attention.> "Okay, sure, it's just strange to be making the same descent in the same spot with another stranger snooping about below us, even though this...

    The Dragons' Maw

    Sleet had that deerling-in-headlights look. Another marvel. It was enough to actually feel sorry for her, even after all her teasing habits. "Hey," said Laura, "that's enough messing with Sleet. For now. How about we order some actual food? I don't, uh, think the waitstaff noticed us? I'll take...

    The Dragons' Maw

    Laura returned the smirk, entirely failing to maintain a deadpan expression. "News to me, too. Explains why she always wants to take corviknight taxis everywhere instead of walking, though." "Nnnnoo!" protested Sleet, putting her palms up: [stop]. "Is jusst con-veeeeen-ient! Don't have a...

    The Dragons' Maw

    Laura watched Sleet make a face she was sure she'd never seen the inteleon make before. Sleet looked, for once, like she didn't know what the fuck was happening. "Uh, oh-kayy," she said, her voice breaking a little on the last syllable. Sleet reached out and stroked Hazel's feathers...

    The Dragons' Maw

    Sleet's eyes widened, then narrowed again. [Yes. I like your pretty feathers,] she signed, thinking hard, no doubt for a way to regain the upper hand. Laura tried very hard to keep a straight face, and said nothing, exchanging a glance with Gladion. Sleet's grin returned as she came up with...

    The Dragons' Maw

    Sleet continued to chuckle shamelessly to herself. Laura, for her part, took Gladion's response as a relief. If he could laugh it off, she didn't have to be so hideously embarrassed. She sighed, and smiled gently at Hazel. "Sleet's just being naughty by deliberately implying things she knows...

    The Dragons' Maw

    Laura choked on air, eyes snapping wide. Sleet seemed to try to remain impassive, but a shit-eating reptile grin spread wider and wider over her face until her stupid pink-white lizard tongue stuck right out of her mouth as she snickered devilishly. [Actually, it's pretty much a nickname,] she...

    The Dragons' Maw

    Laura stepped inside, and looked around for Gladion. Having booths everywhere suited her just fine, she preferred the privacy, but it did make it hard to spot her friend, and she didn't really want to have to ask a member of staff... but there, she could see a piscine tail and a scaly mammalian...

    "Will do, May," replied Laura, wondering what happened to this kid to make her seem half her age again at least. "And yeah, same here, Spirit." <Good fortune.> Malachai nodded to them both, closing his eyes a moment, and then reached out to tap his ball with a wingtip, vanishing into it in a...

    Laura's fingers twitched as she scrambled for what to say. "Oh. Well, I'm glad. And thank you." She sucked her teeth for a moment. "I'm not sure where Orzo and Clink are. Maybe the infirmary, maybe somewhere more private? May, if you like, we can trade numbers, and I'll let you know if I find...

    Laura watched as the exchange took place, trying to memorise the details. Modest and unassuming as Shaymin was, she was clearly an extraordinary being. 'God', she didn't know about, but extraordinary, most certainly. Malachai remained quiet, possibly disconcerted by Shaymin's response to his...

    Main Hall - Cotton Down Lounge

    Ghost powers...? Due cause? Laura's head buzzed, but before her thoughts could coalesce into something useful, Malachai leaned down with a guttural hissing to lock eyes with Spirit. His sending was uncharacteristically intense, accompanied by the krookodile-like sound coming from his throat...

    Laura nodded carefully, feeling intensely uncomfortable at the notion that one hoopa would eliminate and impersonate another. "If the perpetrator is Hoopa, maybe we could cross-reference the attacks with times he was around Xavian? If you're right, but Xavian thinks that's his real partner...
