    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    Brisa considered this, mirroring Mergo's stoicism. The fella seemed touched by a melancholy mood, and she didn't intend to make light repartee. "Depends what y'consider a life to be," she replied. "I have a friend who's lived a number of lives without continuity of memory. And I've met folks as...

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    "Planet not quite how y'remember it?" Brisa kept some distance between herself and the gardevoir as she approached. He'd presented a stoic persona when his team had arrived, and she didn't want to intrude too closely on his apparent melancholy if company was unwelcome. But if she were him...

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park
    Threadmarks: R16 ~ Brisa & Mergo

    The Park had rotted through for a time after the waters rose. Brisa had limped out against medical advice, to find somewhere peaceful, somewhere open and natural and beautiful. She'd found mud, struggling plantlife, a handful of volunteer ecologists doing their best to mitigate the disaster, one...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa chuckling, scoffing gently. "Yeah, that makes two of us. Well, if'n y'change yer mind, lemme know. I bet it'd be fun." She waved over some more drinks for them both and settled in for a pleasant, playful evening. Aria was excellent company, and the longer Brisa spent time with her, the...

    Offscreen Activities

    Brisa spent most of her recovery time reading or having low key chats with various Spectrum members. Luz would ferry her to her friends' places to hang out, and she did her best to take a genuine break from Spectrum business. In some ways, she was better than ever – back to being close with...

    Spinda Cafe

    "Couldn't say, darlin'. I think I'm catchin' on quick fer a gal with no experience t'speak of herself. Who's t'say yer aptitude ain't all just from those flirtin' competitions you mentioned?" Brisa had meant it as a bit of ribbing, but it made a certain kind of sense now that she said it out...

    Spinda Cafe

    "I don't expect I'd mind at all," drawled Brisa, her ears heating up again. Mostly because Aria's immediate retreat at the thought she might be taking advantage of Brisa was . . . intensely reassuring. Even if it was a little condescending. Brisa wondered if the lucario was right about being...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa chuckled. Oh, there was a reaction there. Mm. Neat. Her ears were still warm, but she was very much at her ease. "It weren't among the reasons I offered t'give you a 'lash, but I was alright with it. I knew it might happen. An' I didn't drop the connection when I realised it was...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa kept her smile, albeit one a little drier than before. "That's too bad. Maybe y'can lead me on when I'm sober," she joked. "It's been fun. Ain't had nobody pursue me before." She left her paw out in the open for a moment, and flexed her digits absentmindedly. "I don't mind this...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa's eyes widened at that. Oh, fuck. Okay. She forgot how words worked for a second. Fortunately (or unfortunately, perhaps), the whiskey spoke for her. "Oh, d'you find me compellin' enough fer that, Aria?" she asked, conscious of the complexity in the lucario's feelings, and the...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa had to stifle a purr of her own. "Here goes..." Aria's paw connected with hers, and golden threads lightly wrapped around it. Nothing she couldn't snap just by pulling away. She could feel safe. The rush of feeling was, as usual, mostly unilateral. Contentedness, excitement, the...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa smiled, both warmly and wearily. She could imagine, based on the kind of shit she'd seen happen to the posse. And herself. She extended a forelimb and turned her palm upward, exposing her beans carpal pads. They glowed a dim gold. "Of course. Just hold my paw fer as long as y'fancy, an'...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa frowned. "Well, as much as that surely comes with some advantages, it seems a shame that y'gotta miss out on the other effects." Her tail flicked from side to side, and she narrowed her eyes in thought. "Tell ya what... How 'bout I let ya ride my own buzz fer a spell? My whiplash...

    Spinda Cafe

    "Why, thank you~" For all that Brisa had success in the Colosseum and praise from her compatriots for her strength, actually being flirted with for it was deeply, unexpectedly thrilling. She grinned, her eartips so hot by now she couldn't twitch them without hearing her own pulse. "I ain't...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa flushed harder still, but she rolled her eyes at the sheer cheek of the question. "Aw, please. I got more'n one type, an' I ain't no pushover m'self, as you well know." But she couldn't keep a delighted smirk off her face as she drummed her claws against her bottle. "But yeah, I'll...

    Spinda Cafe

    "Aw, fuckin' shucks," chuckled Brisa, waving Aria's tease away with a paw. "Yer no less adorable'n I am, darlin'." It didn't escape her notice that Aria had hinted that drinking kept her sane, but... Well. Not really the time and place to harp on about self-medication with drink, and it'd be...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa scoffed, looked away, but couldn't help smling. "Ain't it somethin' that comes about through bonds with others? I'll bet money that'll be down t'yer fella, then." She smirked in a contented sort of way, feeling entirely, pleasantly warm.

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa chuckled lightly. "Sounds like our experiences with our teammates weren't so different in some ways. We had roommates at odds, conciliatory picnics, Owen droppin' all sortsa embarrassin' sentences, an' all that." Her ears burned a little from the whiskey and the comment about Starr. Ah...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa thought of Starr, who'd needed a new world, many months, and to hear things only Brisa could tell her, going back to where she'd been. The way she'd been. Consumed by guilt and shame, without someone telling her that she was brave, and good, and loved. "I've done everythin' I can," she...

    Spinda Cafe

    Brisa nodded, whiskers twitching in thought. "Yeah. I used t'feel very, very alone. Knowin' the multiverse is a surprisin'ly small place is a kinda comfort. As fer whether I'll forget... It's hard t'be sure. Supposedly it's down t'yer 'hero's aura' an' whether yer world has more in store fer ya...
