    Water Veil Cove

    Hazel’s eyes lit up. “You are also Hazel! Hello! I was not talking before when we were seeing each other before. You are also borrowing a human, I am seeing. Is it feeling natural to you? I am thinking that Gladion was right and a piece of my brain is coming from this, it is feeling more easy...

    Water Veil Cove

    Hazel sighed, her anger flickering out like a candle in the wind. “He is not being our problem anymore, at least.” She was intrigued by how Odette had moved in front of defensively. It was a familiar gesture to her, but normally she’d been on the other end of it. “Maybe I should not have been...

    Water Veil Cove

    Hazel gritted Odette’s teeth. Something burned in her eyes. “It is a situation that I will be dealing with once you are shutting up and going away! Stop being a bother before I decide to teach you regret.”

    Water Veil Cove

    Hazel sneered. “I am not being your lady, you fuck. I am thinking no bird would be your lady, you are all wrong.” The word ugly echoed in her head. Hazel heard her voice. It sounded very different outside the helmet- Deeper as it echoed, almost hollow. She was saddened to find that’s what she...

    Water Veil Cove

    Hazel immediately noticed the shock to her field of view, as well as the sensation of wind on her face, and in her hair.She tried humming a song she'd heard before, and found her voice more responsive than usual. She was elated. She twirled around, but lost her balance and fell. When she did...

    Water Veil Cove

    R-Ritual? All of us? Gladion's heart skipped a beat. Manaphy was going to do what now? Was this their chance to find the missing people? He wasn't sure, but he didn't object either. His voice stuck in his throat. Badly.

    Water Veil Cove

    "Wait, does that include by teleportation? If you're sure they still have to be on the island, that's pretty big in and of itself..." Gladion stuck his hands in his pockets. This seemed like a bad time to admit this actually wasn't his idea. Because, for whatever reason Manaphy wanted to talk...

    Water Veil Cove

    Gladion startled and took a step back. "Yes." That was what Wallace called them, no? That means this Manaphy is probably their kind. Good sign. "We seek your... uhh.. aid with... something. Don't know if you're aware but a bunch of people have been disappearing. Kind of a problem, you know...

    Hunger Switch Cafe

    Once the group had collected enough people- or, in Gladion's opinion, too many people, they set out for the cove. <><><><><>

    Threadmarks: D3: :copyka:

    Gladion lead the group from the Cafe towards the cove, feeling like perhaps this had become a larger affair than was really necessary. Maybe he should've been more discreet, but it was too late for that now. Which, in turn, meant there was some pressure on him to turn up actual results. He just...

    Hunger Switch Cafe

    Gladion shrugged. “Nothing to be done about it. I did send out a few other messages, but you’re the first to answer. Ought to give them a bit to answer, I think. May I ask who the other people are, just in case I run into them?”

    Hunger Switch Cafe

    Gladion sighed. “Y-You’re welcome? I think you just set a new record for the weirdest thing I’ve dealt with in the past few days. I’m impressed you managed to beat the previous record holder, who was…” He mimed getting out a piece of paper to check the contents. “Oh! Also you two...

    Hunger Switch Cafe

    Gladion saw two people walk into the cafe. Odette, and… also Odette again but more vampiric-looking this time. He leaned back in surprise. “Hey, Odette. Nice to see you, but…” He glanced towards Odile and back at her. “Who’s this? You got a goth identical twin or what?”

    Threadmarks: Day 3: Too many people go Manaphy hunting [Gladion + others]

    Admittedly, Gladion wasn’t 100% sure what the point of finding a mythical species here, but it had been a common goal and he felt obligated to follow up on his sighting. If this Manaphy was more like Wallace’s than like the sort he was familiar with, it wasn’t too hard to imagine the possible...

    "Interesting. Haven't heard that one." Hazel cooed. [I think that is sounding very... interesting.] Gladion absentmindedly scratched her. "Yeah," he said, even though the idea did not sound nearly as fun and appealing as it did in his childhood.

    Water Veil Cove

    Gladion bit his lower lip. He wasn’t looking to get too deep into it. Looking back, those stories felt clumsy. Or perhaps they were only clumsy as a means to express what he’d been feeling but hadn’t the words for. But he was okay to talk about it a little. “Are you aware of Heart Swap? It’s a...

    "Don't worry about it, I just zoned out for a second. Something unrelated." He hesitated, feeling nervous. "I... We don't have those stories about Manaphy where I'm from, but we have our own. They were a comfort to me, too." His voice dropped to barely above a whisper. "Similar reasons, really."...

    Water Veil Cove

    Gladion could guess what the translations of Gourádon, Kaióga, and Rekkoúza. It seemed like it should also be easy to assume that they were talking about the same Manaphy, but with a Lokásoúvia mixed in there, there was no being sure. Like, why would some associate Manaphy with childbirth? Or...

    Water Veil Cove

    "My name is Gladion. She is Hazel." "Ah." Gladion's face reddened. Fucking hell, that was even more awkward than the Odette situation. "I see. I think I'm in the opposite situation, and I'm trying to figure out how to approach it, so... Does he know you? Or, no, I'm prying. My apologies."...

    Oh damn, the guy was just pausing, hadn't even finished yet. It really wasn't his lucky day. "Huh. Looked like I disturbed you to me, sorry. Thought you were done. I just... figured it'd be rude for me to run off again. Didn't expect a show or anything." Hazel took a step back so she could fit...
