    "It is not just sci-if trash," Lillie hissed. "It's..." She couldn't say what she was thinking. He didn't think it was her fault, and she didn't want to change that. "It's the reason I'm here." Wait no, that's not good enough. It's also the reason he's here, dummy. "And, uhh, my father. I...

    Being a nice obedient phantump and buying a Healthy Orb, while I'm at it, selling the Invisify Orb. Edit: If it's not too late to not take Pressure instead Super Luck, I'd like to refund that and do it next round because it's slightly more optimal. If it'd cost anything, it's not important...

    Was he mad? What was he getting at? "I don't know. I would've been here when it happened."

    Spent 2 hours today reworking the history of Alola because The Light Of Alola has much more version dependency than I thought because the original thing I checked lied so I had to gut a bunch of worldbuilding.

    Oh. Oh no. "I think..." What could she say? She couldn't admit it was her fault, but she felt compelled to say something. "If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, then... Then... I might've had something to do with it." Please don't be mad at me...

    Lillie sighed with relief. "Oh! You're also human? And..." Oh no. He'd been fighting a worldwide threat, then he ended up in an Ultra Wormhole. Was that a coincidence? Or was this her fault? "That threat... They're not ultra bea- or, like, aliens? I don't know if we're from the same world."

    Lillie took deep not-breath. He wouldn't ask if he wasn't going to believe you. "I am. It's... a long story, but I ended up here after being caught up in some matters related to my mother..."

    She wasn't sure why, but something about him made her nervous. He was just trying to help, there was no reason to judge him. She wasn't even sure what she'd have been judging him for. Was it the generosity itself making her nervous? "Oh, I'll get breakfast, but don't worry about paying for it...

    It was a good thing that Mimikyu didn't have the same reaction to being startled as humans did, because otherwise she may well have jumped a foot into the air. "I..." She couldn't decline, that would be quite transparently rude. "Thank you," she said, climbing up onto the chair across him at...

    Lillie slunk into the cafe, looking for breakfast. She looked around for a free table. There were none. It would be rude to leave right away, but she couldn't just go up to someone and ask to sit with them. She didn't want to bother anyone like that... She stood like a deer caught in...

    Oh, heck. At some point I got it into my head that I had my challenges done and stopped logging more writing. I got 4 more hours finishing up my oneshot, so I'll still have to get 2 more done before the cutoff. While I'm at it, let's go with Slippery over Hex Counter.

    "Not a coincidence, it's our family's bullshit. My sister was trying to stop our parental disaster from playing with wormholes, but she fell through one instead. So, since nobody else was going to stop her, I took a little visit back home, but... It didn't work out the way I needed it to...

    Gladion couldn't see Dusk touch him, but he felt it. It was... strange. "My sister got along with her well enough, at least when I last talked to her. Never found a way to keep in touch, so it's been four years since we last met. Things can change..." He let out a strange noise between a choke...

    "Well, my egg donor sure didn't care, she's the one who was running the system in the first place. My father is more complicated. He just... didn't get it. He was idealistic to a fault. Couldn't see people's flaws. He really did believe in his wife, he truthfully thought she loved us and was...

    "We were expected to lead the... the 'Pack,' if you will." There was also the other role he had been born into, but there was no way he would discuss that with a stranger. "Legally, I wouldn't have been able to leave until I was an adult, either. The human legal system gives parents full...

    "M-Me? I, uhh..." I should've seen this coming. "It's a bit of a long story. My sister and I were born into a role. She was okay with it, I was not. She was the golden child, I ended up running away. I wonder what it would've been like to have a normal, functional family..."

    "Huh. So how much it matters depends on where you're born, then..." He thought that sounded unfortunate. "You ever wonder what it would be like if you were just... born differently?"

    "Likewise, it's difficult for me to imagine your world. Are there still limits to species intelligence? I can't imagine a Caterpie having as much room in their brains for the kind of complex thoughts we're discussing, but nobody I've met thus far seems to be any lesser to a human. Does species...
