Starr eyed Cynthian carefully as he turned to leave. Yeah, he pretty much was doing the worst job at pretending to be okay. "So... what are you thinking that because you missed a few fights you can't catch up and the team doesn't need you, or...?"

Starr squinted at him slightly. Right, so, trying to change the subject then. "Eh, they're around. It's a big city, so, lotta different places to go. I know a few of them are at the beach right now, there's some that spend all their time at the library, you might find 'em there. Oh, and I...

Starr glanced away with a sour taste in her mouth. She scratched the back of her head with a paw and said, "Look, if this is about the things I said back before the first mission... it was just bullshit, alright? You're better than that."

"Yeah, uh, I guess we're not sure which of them we'll find at the hideout. If any. But it's our main lead, so we don't have much choice." It was probably a trap. But what the hell else were they supposed to do? God, she was finally starting to understand what Ajia went through back home, and she...

"Yeah, that's him. Would've been bad enough if it was just him, but no, he had to get turned into one of the strongest Pokemon in the world," Starr said, her words dripping with spite. But then her expression relaxed slightly, and she went on, "You know, Brisa said pretty much the same thing...

Starr raised an eyebrow as the deadpan joke, but didn't comment. Seemed like he'd woken up worse off than when he'd left. But if he wanted to know what had happened while he was gone, that was a better topic anyway. "I dunno what Icetales already told you, but yeah, it's a bunch of bullshit."...

Starr did a double-take as she walked past. Okay, this city had a lot of people, but she was pretty sure she'd only ever seen one Roselia with black and white roses... "Cynthian? That you?" He turned to face her, and yep, definitely him. "Oh hey, hadn't seen you in a while--heard from a few...

[Anise > Team Spectrum]: god dammit stop spamming the groupchat at 1am. shes fine i literally just saw her with saltriv.

"Well! That wasn't how I expected that to work." :quag:

Holy shit. "You're..."--Starr shook her head to clear it--"you're telling me that not only did the assholes behind this manage to grab Owen from his room and stick the scarf on him and delete the camera footage, they also gave him an injury matching the type that S'more gave that Charizard...

Dave right now:

Starr let out a huff. "We're not gonna be idiots about this, alright? Yeah, it happened, and we gotta deal with it and make sure it doesn't happen again, but that's no reason to treat him like he's a threat. God. Let's just check the damn--" Aaaaand the footage was gone. Fucking great...

Palkia clapped its claws together. "The Mightyena has a gift of invulnerability! Excellent, that helps quite a lot. That sort of gift... it'd be rather useful for either Naughty or Nice, wouldn't you say? But generally... if the last one standing on the Naughty team has that gift, they'd...

A scowl crossed Starr's face at the accusatory tone in several of the comments flying around. Mostly Maple. "Okay look, I was one of the ones saying it was probably him, yeah, but you don't have to treat him like he's a fucking suspect," she growled. "It's pretty damn obvious he didn't want...

"Of course it was Owen," Starr muttered, massaging her temple with a paw. "And it's not like this is the first time we've seen someone on the team go on a rampage." The memory of the shadow machine flickered through her mind, and she fought back a shudder. But he didn't look shadowed this...

"Okay, someone wanna start with why the hell that scarf is so important and why we should care that it got taken?" Starr asked with a huff. "I kind of doubt that it was taken for its sentimental value."

There was a noticeable lilt to Palkia's movements the next morning. The perpetually angry, tired, and anxious fox man was gone, and the party was a lot worse off for it. "I don't believe Jesse had the power to eliminate guests," Palkia said simply. "When he said that his power was a liability...

Yep. More bullshit, right on schedule. Couldn't go a day without it anymore, seemed like. Starr bolted through the destroyed lobby, following after her scattered teammates and making it outside just in time to see the Charizard flying off into the distance, to the north. Smoke billowed up...

Starr eyed Brisa skeptically, face slowly splitting into a crooked grin as she realized what had just happened. "Nothing. I'm sure it'll be fun." "Gods, I wanna fight you every goddamn day," Brisa had said. With that ridiculously overeager face, blushing up a friggin' storm. And now she...
