Lillie winced. "Wait. Hold on. The first Darkest Day? Are you insinuating that there's going to be another?"

Lillie raised an eyebrow. "Would they even have had a champion tho-that long ago?"

Realizing that she'd just scooped up a human like that, Lillie quickly set Violet back down. Her face flushed, she felt quite silly. "I-I just... I was a reflex. You know, ice and rock and fire." Lillie cast her gaze towards her bag, looking for something to distract herself. "You're not hurt...

"Well..." Lillie trailed off. Best just to let her think what she needed to. At least she doesn't think she's a Ponyta... Lillie extend a hand to help Violet, up, but- "What are you doing!" Lillie shouted. A display was one thing, this was dangerous! Acting on reflex, she scooped up Violet to...

“Ah. My sympathies Each time Lillie heard about that happening, the more she began to fear it was the path she’d set herself on by agreeing to this and messing with these other worlds… She shuddered at the thought. Still, it was unlikely. It still probably wouldn’t happen… Though Violet did...

Lillie smiled and raised an eyebrow. "So. Why're you so interested in stories about swirling clouds and red lightning?"

"You're welcome?" But... I didn't know anything... Lillie did have someone in mind to ask next: The Sneasel. She locked her eyes onto her target. "Truth or dare?"

"I... Uhh..." Hubris. That's what had gotten her here. Oh, sure, of course Kaz wouldn't pry about her own species... But about Ponyta? Of course that was on the table. And despite what she knew about "'Ponyta,'" she knew almost nothing about actual Ponyta: They weren't an endangered species...

"Me? I... Uhh..." Lillie felt quite stuck. She really, really didn't want to pick a dare. Especially not after the way they'd been going so far... but picking a truth was dangerous in its own way... But she knew a thing or two about massaging the truth, and Kaz was very willfully ignorant. She...

Lillie's left hand disappeared behind her back as she clenched it into a fist. How could she be that careless? It occurred to Lillie that spraying Kaz in the face with repel felt a lot meaner when she had to do it herself... But she was already committed. They had a river nearby, and this...

"The entire reason they have talons is so that they can manipulate objects," Lillie snipped back in a matter-of-fact tone of voice... In retrospect, she realized she probably shouldn't have said that...

No, that couldn't be. Or, perhaps... Something could have happened to one of the cryo-preserved Nulls. Yes. That must be it. One of the cryo-preserved Nulls must have ended up in some other world where everyone could talk, like this one. Lillie knew Kaz was wrong, she knew where the Nulls had...

Lillie's brow furrowed with concern. "Kaz, do you know what that berry was? That Espeon seems... intoxicated."

Lillie felt a cold wave of dread wash over her. Gen's fate sounded... awful. She bit her lower lip anxiously. "I-I'm so sorry... I... My sympathies..."

Lillie had heard of the Nulls needing brain surgery... but she'd been under the impression that the problem had been fixed. The Nulls supposedly hadn't had any such problems since the control masks went on, but perhaps things were different for Kaz. She wished she had a way to talk to Violet...

The control mask appeared to be causing Kaz pain when she thought about her memories... Perhaps that was how someone had managed to trick her into thinking she was a Ponyta... "Kaz! Are you okay? Do..." She took a moment to pose her question properly. "Do you get headaches like that often?"

A storm with crimson red energy... Lillie mused on that for a moment. "I haven't read any stories like that where humans ended up turning into other species. I've seen events like that described like that in a few other stories, though. The inspiration for it comes from an old Galarish myth."

"I don't know. I would assume not, but everything here is weird," Lillie whispered back, feeling acutely aware of the fact she was already having a conversation with a Type: Null, and therefore couldn't really make any assumptions as to what counted as sane here. She cast an inquiring glance...

"Nonono!" Lillie laughed awkwardly. "Humans aren't pokemon at all! We're a totally different thing! We're just one species, the one Hana and I are. I mean, people tell stories about kids waking up as Kadabra or whatever but it doesn't- Err, it's not something that's supposed to happen outside...

Lillie made a noise that sounded halfway between a sharp cough and the noise one might make upon being punched in the gut. "W H A T ?"
