    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse sighed. When the poor lil' fella wasn't terrified, he was forlorn. "Don't worry about it, kid. Wanna help me get some soup?" He turned to his odd, lupine friend. "How 'bout yourself, Lee?"

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Nah, son, you've not got it right. Abigail cleared Lee the second I found her out, the bingo thing was about determinin' how accurate Lee's powers are, and we don't even know if that's possible." "I got a direct quote here as evidence." Jesse raised a brow. What a time to be without his...

    Sand Continent ~ Sand Dune of Spirits

    Brisa stared at Darkwhite in a moment of uncomprehending dismay. Was her corruption finally too much for her? Had something happened to her in the Isle of Light? "Luz?" she called. "Can you help her??" The zeraora-shade shook her head. "I don't have any more auxiliary moves than you, darlin'...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Yeah? How's that, son?" He stopped in his tracks and looked around, scratching his cheek fur. Gods, it was starting to feel empty. Where were Lee and Tabitha, anyway?

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Click-clic-click-click-click. Done. "There we go. Satisfyin' little thing, really." Jesse hummed for a moment, then his ear flicked in irritation. "We're runnin' outta time. We need to get a move on and figure out our goddamn situation. I trust our friend on the fuckin' screen will keep doin'...

    Sand Continent ~ Sand Dune of Spirits

    Brisa padded forward, her fur already starting to glow with an electric heat. For the first time on Cibus, this was a fight where she felt no internal cauldron of desperate trepidation. This was a fight where she intended to not only go all-out, but enjoy it. A vestige of her fearful...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse nodded. "Figured. Ain't easy, is it? And I'm guessin' you ain't used to it yet. Don't worry, son, it'll be alright." Jesse continued to rotate and progress the puzzle cube, drawing nearer to success. "Things can seem mighty confusin' when you're wrapped up in them, but in my experience...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Is that so? I ain't had one of these since I was a kid. Before I became a pokémon." It still felt weird, twenty five years later. "Know anythin' about humans, son?" asked Jesse, with a wink. "I ain't been one for awhile, but I know one when I see one."

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Hey there, kid. Doin' okay?" Jesse pause his puzzle-solving and put an arm around the oshawott. Tiny little fucker oughtn't to be here. Jesse deserved weird purgatorial bullshit, but Gen was just a boy. Why the hell was he suffering through this kind of situation? That fucking committee was...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse sat down heavily in the couch. "Okay, so, anyone have any ideas about where to take this? Elbert? Anyone? In the meantime, I need literally anything else to focus on. Maybe a puzzle that makes sense, something genuinely solvable with no hidden information. Actually..." He reached into...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse waved a paw flippantly at Palkia. "Like I said, the person whose alignment I learned was random. Give over, you great lunk. Anyway... Since we started I've received one bingo card, two doves (both of which I've now used), a secret bingo number, and an upgrade to my power which still ain't...

    Spirits' Edge

    Gods, this guy was one hell of a talker. And three whiskers shy of being a condescending bastard. How the fuck could she respond to all that? How could Jesse? Brisa broke the silence first. "My pa's mistakes ain't just things from my past. They're in my head. Maybe fer the rest of my life. I...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse blearily raised a paw for more silence. "One more thing afore I take another nap... I used my second sacrificial dove to identify another random guest's alignment." He levelled a claw at Palkia. "Ya may be fuckin' mischievous, but yer Nice. We already knew that if we trusted Abigail's...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse scratched away with his chalk, his fur by now thoroughly stained with the stuff. Where before he'd been manic in his pursuit of scum, now he was just... tired. Grieving, perhaps. Jesse's Take (assuming all info is good): Confirmed Innocent Uncertain Probably Scum Confirmed...

    "Howdy, Elbert. I'll be with you proper when I get my shit together but in the meantime... We voted off Nilam, and I led that one. And what d'ya know, their gift was coal! ...Darkwhite's gift done got opened in the night, though, disappearin' her the same way as Squirt and Mewtwo. Naughty guest...

    "I fuckin' knew it," grumbled Jesse from his spot on the couch. "I was fuckin' right!! Hrgh... I'll be right with y'all, I jus' need a minute to gather my thoughts..." That, and salve his inexplicable sadness over the absence of Darkwhite. At least she was alive, right? They were all alive...

    Spirits' Edge

    "What's the point?" Brisa began, bitterly, but then Buffet began to speak. Something about his voice made it hard to interrupt... Brisa turned to face her father. He was standing in his office doorway, leaning heavily on the frame as if exhausted. What was the point if they were just going to...
