Starr chuckled under her breath. "You can say that again. There's been days where I don't know what I'd do without her." It took a few seconds for her to stop and realize what she'd just said. But... it was true, wasn't it? Losing Brisa had felt like being stabbed in the gut. Starr forced...

It seemed so long ago. Just thinking back on it felt pretty ridiculous. After all they'd been through... Starr leaned against the table, idly running a claw along the rim of her empty glass. "Guess we both just got the wrong impression of each other. The early missions were a mess, none of...

Starr let out a small snort at that. "I'll take the compliment. Lots of stuff here doesn't faze me anymore." She closed her eyes, mulling over what to say. ...Just keeping it to Cibus stuff would be fine. "Started a bunch of bullshit fights and pissed people off from the moment I got here...

Starr idly scratched at her cheek fur. "They're sore from being screwed with. I've been there. If you really wanna explain to them where you were coming from, then just... give 'em time to get it out of their systems. There's been times I was pissed about stupid shit where the other person...

Ah, fuck... Starr fought back the urge to just say that it was stupid to expect some magical solution to have spawned out of nowhere from leaking sensitive info to anyone who could hear it. Well, it was true but... there had to be a better way to put it. The kid was beating himself up bad...

Starr let out something between a sigh and a groan. "Right, the spy thing..." Brisa had been anxious about all that too. And in a way, Starr couldn't really know what they were going through, because she hadn't even known the full details of what was going on until they'd gotten to the tree...

Somehow it wasn’t too surprising that he saw himself as being like her friends. A younger, more reckless Ajia, maybe. (It was fine if he wanted to think Starr was a hero. She didn’t have to correct him.) “It felt pretty lonely here early on. Spent pretty much every day just wanting to...

Starr's chest tightened. Her expression faltered for just a second, but she kept it from being any more than that. 'A hero.' For a moment she imagined herself telling him the truth. 'Nah, sorry kid, I was the exact opposite of that. I was the bad guy.' God, wouldn't that be something. Part...

Boy, a lot of that sure sounded familiar. Starr folded her arms, mulling over her response. "Wellll... legend-catching is pretty new in my world too. And yeah, not exactly the best people doing it either." And she'd been one of them. "You can probably guess that they're not exactly being...

Starr had to stop herself from doing a spit-take. Man, this kid sure was something. Kinda reminded her of that friend of Jade's from back home. The one partnered with Moltres? Yeah, him. She gave him a wry grin. "Gonna go out on a limb and guess that that's not quite as controversial as...

Starr nodded with a bit of a grin. "I feel you there. Pretty much everything I had planned when I started my journey went out the window." Granted... most of that had been because of work changing things in a big way. What would her team have been like if she'd gotten to meet all of them...

Starr nodded. "Oh, yeah, I've been there before. Wasn't super into it, but I've got some friends who were." That place sure was popular with people who were into legends and such. Ajia had totally dragged her and Jade there when they'd visited Ecruteak. She leaned her arm against the table...

Huh, so he was Sinnohan. A surprising number of teammates were from the same country as her. And come to think of it, so were Red and Silver and all the others who kept showing up here. Was that important? Weird... "I've taken the train up to Sinnoh a few times, a few winter vacations when...

Starr blinked at him, a bit dumbfounded. Well, that sure was some enthusiasm. And she really wasn't expecting to get bombarded with questions, but... screw it, talking about home was nice. "You expecting you'll know about it?" she asked him with a small bit of a smirk. "You know some of our...

Starr's ear flicked at the sound of someone saying her name, and she turned to see a certain Manectric walking into the restaurant. Oh hey, it was the kid Brisa had been training lately--Koamaru. Starr scarfed down the last bit of the sandwich she'd been eating and replied, "Sure was. Take it...

Starr shrugged. "Well yeah, no one's gonna expect you to turn off a type weakness. I've been clubbed by enough rocks when sparring with Cabot, always hurts like a bitch," she said casually. That was good that Cynthian wasn't freaked out by fire moves anymore though. ...Not that it was...

Starr raised an eyebrow, but then couldn't help letting out a chuckle. That sure was a hell of a switch. "Sure, why not. Besides, then I can talk shit to Brisa if I manage to pull it off with you two after she went down," she said with a smirk. There was a pause, and she added, "Not gonna...

Starr let out something between a scoff and a laugh. "Yeah, no kidding. Two-on-two would be all well and good if one of 'em wasn't a legend, and then the second one turns into another goddamn legend. You saw how it took me, Brisa, and Astrid to punch Lugia's lights out, yeah?" Losing Brisa...

"I'll say. Especially after you put such a massive fucking dent in Balm toward the end of that last match." Trying to talk someone up like this was weird, and Starr couldn't help feeling like anything she could say would just make things worse. So the fact that it seemed to actually be...

Riiight, that one time. Man, that felt like it'd been ages ago. She'd avoided talking to Cynthian after that one. Everyone else had been talking about it like she and Nip had fought dirty or something, but dammit, they'd needed to go all-out. Rubbing the back of her head, Starr said, "I bet...
