Bahamut lay down on his side and rested his head on an upper wing.

“Unfortunately you’re not a serpent, so you can’t really coil around him while he’s this size.” Bahamut tapped his chin. “Unless you’re into size differences. No one will judge, I’m sure.”

Really now... you're the one who recruited him. You should've been expecting something like this. Bahamut tilted his head at Xerneas' supposed eagerness. However, while doing that, he was also making sure to make his gelatinous body pulsate. Not enough for the naked eye to be seen. Rather, it...

"I say you humor him." Bahamut's smirk grew. He would've called Owen a child again were it not to spoil the mood. Though he had gotten a slip of the tongue from Xerneas. He already knew from the others that Buffet wasn't acting like himself. The Worldcore was probably to blame. And now he was...

There was a thinly-veiled smirk on Bahamut's face. "I believe some of the planets I once traveled to had a name for such festivities. 'Slumber party,' if I'm not mistaken?" He tapped his chin with a wing-claw. "Perhaps I should procure some refreshments? I'm told chips and dip are standard fare...

"... charming. However did your mate fall for you?" Bahamut deadpanned. But with Xerneas hopefully preoccupied, Bahamut took his opportunity to again probe the tree with his ESP. There had to be some sort of reaction to Diyem's presence, right?

“His antlers sparked with red energy earlier,” Bahamut whispered back. “Something is definitely up.” He pushed Diyem with his tail.

<><><> Sometime later, Bahamut returned. He followed Diyem, perhaps as a means of making sure the guy couldn't turn tail on him. "We're back." Bahamut thumped his gray tail against the ground. "And I brought Dark Matter."

Did you not hear the conversation? He's offering to heal you. Perhaps that is Eternatus speaking for him. Bahamut couldn't believe he was having this conversation. At the very least, you can distract that walking toothpaste container while I attempt to probe the Tree again.

[S0urdough > Team Spectrum, Pop]: Here's your proof Xerneas is corrupted. [S0urdough has uploaded an audio attachment.] Can you please come with me to this damn Tree? If I have to listen to that overgrown stantler dry hump you with his voice again, I'm going to kill someone and it won't look...

Bahamut kept a straight face. “Very well. I will head back to Destiny Village and see if I can pry him away from the infirmary.” He bowed to Xerneas, then floated off toward Primeval Forest. His light was too bright and the badge too deep to be noticed but he believed he had everything he needed.

"Well, I'm given to understand he's had some sort of stomach disturbance as of late." Unbeknownst to Xerneas, Bahamut had his badge inside his ethereal body, hidden behind his crystal chasis to record everything the conversation. The others wanted proof something was wrong with Xerneas? They'd...

“Are you listening to yourself? You’re listing off his features like some swooning adolescent.” Bahamut vaguely recalled Esper having a phrase for this kind of behavior. Sun-deer? Sun-dare? Something like that.

“Are you paranoid about him or mentally ogling him?” Bahamut wondered if Diyem could hear any of this.

Bahamut was far less subtle in his approach. "Did your precious Tree not forward you the news? Your planet's Worldcore is corrupted beyond all measure. Someone needs to see if it's affecting the Tree... and you're as blind to blacklight energy as the rest of your contemporaries. So, if you would...

"Don't." With a sigh, Bahamut rose from his seated position. "That grouch, Xerneas, is still skulking around. And I still think you shades shouldn't approach the Tree. You might resonate with Eternatus... and lose control of yourself." He floated closer to the Tree and mentally probed it...

“Apparently the Worldcore is corrupted. It’s gone full Darkwhite.”

When Zekrom told me about Dark Matter and the Tree, I was the one who hypothesized a switch might have happened, Bahamut elaborated. Honestly, how it never crossed some of these ageless gods' minds is beyond me.

Fascinating. Well, as long as this is show-and-tell hour, I have news courtesy of a conversation with Zekrom from a few days ago. It turns out that the Dark Matter that led the attack on Cibus' Tree of Life was not the Dark Matter originally linked to the planet. Rather, it appears to be the one...

Bahamut was about to relent when voices echoed in his head and alerts went off on his badge. Red and orange gradually expanded in his eyes as he listened everything over. We should've killed Darkwhite when we had the chance. He sighed. Well, it can't be helped now. "I'm staying put. There's...
