    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Brisa chuckled, and decided not to be a downer. "Yeah, me too, fella. Nice work with the Colada fight, by the way. Trainin' always pays off, as I like to tell my students." A glint may have been visible for a moment in her eye as she imagined a grand finale event in the Colo before they went...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    "Well ain't you in a good fuckin' mood," she drawled, reaching for whatever was nearest to her. Something with a good tang to it. Oh, yes. Filo pastry, berry and cream filling. Perfect. "What constitutes 'some trainin' an' stuff', partner?" she asked, between licking her lips, a hunter's grin...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Brisa lifted her head from the arm of the sofa to blink blearily at Owen. She'd been half-dozing, half-watching something on her badge, and near the point of drifting off. "I'm home if the food's good," she jested. Cibusean food was always good. "Howdy, Owen."

    Offscreen Activities

    Brisa approaches Soda now that his recovery is in full swing. Assuming he'll even speak to her, she'd like to offer her friendship, and ask him to help tutor her in the use of Extremespeed, being another non-natural user of the move. She's curious whether he retains his Radiance after what...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa smiled, though it was a tight, dry smile. "Glad t'hear it, Kyurem. Thanks fer a . . . challengin' battle." She passed the remnant off to Owen and Diyem with relief, not caring for anything but a good, long sleep. As soon as fucking possible, at that. Starr and Astrid looked like they...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Brisa agreed with the expressed sentiments with a quiet, dry smile. Any further response was cut off by the arrival of their food. The sandwich she'd had earlier had gone a ways to filling her up, but Sombra's presence always seemed to improve her appetite, oddly. I'm just tryin' t'look after...

    Destiny Colosseum

    "It manipulates its host," growled Brisa. "That distress, that despair y'talked about durin' our battle? We could hear the effects of that thing inside ya, distortin' yer mind. It's been makin' ya sick. Let it go, Kyurem. It's dangerous." Brisa concentrated, hoping that through the Radiance...

    Destiny Colosseum

    "You needn't contain it, an' doin' so is goddamn harmful. Let go of it. Let us take care of the damned thing." Brisa's chest heaved, desperate for more warmth. Behind her, Starr and Astrid were still recovering their senses. They'd run lower on steam than she had. A flicker of telepathy went...

    NaNoWriMo 2021

    Gonna work every day on Different Eyes, hoping to get at least 10k written.

    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa panted for air that didn't scour her throat on its way down, and blinked at the light of the unshadowed world. She barely heard Sprout. With the storm over, her energy returned to her, little by little. She took one step forward, and then another, eyes fixed on the remnant. She raised an...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa peered through the biting air at what looked like a goddamn fragment of the Blacklight. Well, that wouldn't fucking do, would it? All along, this was their real target. Time to do their job. Brisa heaved a crippling haymaker at Kyurem, knowing it wouldn't be blocked. That was sure to do...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Brisa chuckled. "Nah, I got through it all nice'n clean. Meltdown only hurt me an' one other, an' the Shadowin' was down to one of Giovanni's gizmos. Nobody blamed me fer that one. Since then I've kept my head real nice. Don't seem like it in a vacuum, but compared t'most of us, I've got my head...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa struck again, roared with the power of the impact, and stepped back again to keep her head. These hallucinations – an effect of the cold? Perhaps. Or, she could really hear and see things Kyurem had experienced.... What did these visions mean? That last one... Surely Team Colada, trying to...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Kyurem was losing her head to some Shadow bullshit... Maybe they could get through to her, somehow? Did she need saving from whatever darkness was inside her? Starr was struggling on, Astrid's voice was faint in the cold winds... Brisa could take more. Do more. Rally them to keep going...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa growled against Kyurem's fatalism and the joyless, sunless darkness engulfing them. Was this... was Kyurem fucking Shadowing? "Starr, don't lose yer nerve! We'll make it through, just keep goin' steady! C'mon, light on yer toes now, like practice drill!" Brisa loped back around and...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Her fucking plasma. It wasn't... It wasn't working, wasn't restoring her...! And that freezing aura was ruining their defensive stances, goddamnit just how vulnerable were they gonna get? It was worst for Starr, who needed to stand by Astrid, too... "Starr, she's fuckin' up yer guard! Stay...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa took a lungful of heatless air and winced. It wasn't hurting her, not really, but the effect on morale was unnerving. 'Nothing is scarier' indeed. "C'mon you two, whatever she hits us with, we can take it! Stay ready!" She kept her distance from Kyurem, examining her for weaknesses... It...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa peered into the cold. Was Kyurem a purely reactive fighter, or something? Did she have punisher strategies? Brisa wracked her mind for possibilities. "Astrid, keep on yer toes, she's gotta try somethin' sooner or later! Starr, brace yerself and go steady! We can handle any surprises if we...

    Destiny Colosseum

    The ominous atmosphere of the Colosseum, with Kyurem's chill emptiness displacing all other feeling... There was a kind of sorrow, to it, a melancholy that tugged at your chest and bit at your skin and clutched at your bones. A coldness of the heart. Starr had her inner fire to stay warm...
