How intelligent are pokemon in your world? This varies heavily by species. A 1-10 classification scale, based on tests of things like object permanence, self-recognition and theory of mind is used as a guideline, though it's admitted by more or less everyone to be a rough guideline. A score of...

Something about this place wrought a melancholic feeling on Celeste. Or rather, a feeling that had been ruminating in his heart for some time was gnawing its way out. He began to hum, then to sing. It was an old lullaby about renewal. Traditionally sung in Xerneas’ name, though his mother had...

Just as I had worried... "If you ever need-" Celeste was interrupted as his radiant sense alerted him to an incoming tail sweep from Maple. He crouched low, then sprung up into the air, slicing at it with his own bladed tail as it passed beneath him. "-a moment to collect yourself, let me know...

I would like to start in a zone where the head will not eat me alive before I've set my everything up. Hopefully someone setting up Speed will make a similar decision so I can hang out with them. -Void Pact Evasion -Psych Up Speed -Grassy Orb [-128 stam, +40 shadow]

Buying Vile Seeds I guess

Replacing Endure with Spite Replacing Spotlight and Determined with Deep Focus and Blast Control. Buying a Tiny Reviver Seed and swapping a Max Elixir for a Divine Elixir

(Oops left this written and unposted) Celeste, having surely heard about the state Deoxys is in by now, will try to see if Wish has any impact at all, even knowing it won't reverse everything. (That is, assuming Karat will allow it.) If it has a nonzero impact he'll be willing to come back...

Publishing something earlier in the same round still works for S-Tier, correct? If so, Dark-Clothes Small Human qualifies me.

165w review of kunāne. Made me feel a bunch of things.

Well, this is kinda hard to review... because it's making me feel too many things to find words for it all. But I love it. It left me feeling a bittersweet sort of melancholy. Now, having loved it though I may have, I must admit I didn't understand what was going on on a literal level. The...

Two hours of writing.

"And I'm lucky enough for that as well..." It used to be the case that, what felt like ages ago, Soul had wondered if being more than a shade was worth all the trouble that came with becoming *Soul* in the first place... How long had it been since she'd last wondered that? It was a long time...

The thought that normal familiars might have chosen their identities was something that had never occurred to Soul. Though, if Luz wasn't awake enough to remember it, would she have been awake enough to make a choice? Possibly. It wouldn't be the strangest thing about being a shade. Soul had...

Soul smiled back. Luz was pretty charming... Even if she made Soul anxious once in a while. She counted herself fortunate being a zeraora did mean something to Luz. She was halfway anticipating Luz to say it meant nothing, which would've made her explanation all the more difficult. "But what if...

Soul had to think about that. What did this mean to her? It felt like there was a hole in her idea of who she is that was been filled in, but why? Why did it matter to her? She wasn't sure why. "It's hard to put into words. Everyone needs something to be. You're a zeraora. Does that mean...

"Before the tree and what we learned afterwards, Eternatus and their power... I knew about it, but it was like an abstract concept. Like humans: Known, but a mystery. Or, like they would be had we not a dozen of them on Team Spectrum." Soul thought it odd how she thought of humans as distant...

Soul laughed. That party felt like a lifetime ago now. In some sense, it was. "I remember that, too. I believed it. Really thought you were unbreakable. You still seem that way sometimes, even now that I know it's not literally true. You're very... grounded. I look up to that."

Soul breathed a sigh of relief. Luz was still okay, then. "I know that. I can see that on everyone else's normal faces. I just wanted to understand why. I suppose it's because everyone else has figured out who they are already?" Soul had never really known what it would be like to be a normal...

Soul's tails twitched. She'd been right to worry, then. Luz clearly thought she was silly. She'd known someone might say something like that, but hearing it from someone she'd considered a friend stung. "Fine, maybe you already pretty much figured all this and none of it matters to you. But I've...
