    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa skipped a breath. What on earth and under sky was Diyem thinking? "C'mon," she barked at her friends in the stands. "We might be needed." She leaped from row to row, making her way down, sending to Diyem as she went. Chief, are you in yer right fuckin' mind?

    Destiny Village ~ Chip's Lab

    Brisa's hackles rose a little automatically, and she bit back an invective-filled retort about how the parasites literally caused their hosts to frenzy against their friends and show their unmitigated worst sides. She shuddered. "Stone's a good shout. Let's try it."

    Destiny Village ~ Chip's Lab

    "Howdy Nate, Rocky," said Brisa. "We're seein' if we can learn anythin' from these critters." She turned round to look at the new arrivals, and rubbed her chin. Those two each had their way of coming up with creative solutions to problems. Maybe they could help. "We got a bright idea deficit...

    Destiny Colosseum

    Brisa was out of her seat, leaning forward as far as possible to see. "He's pushin' her. He's tryin' t'prompt more from her, somehow..." Her tail thrashed. C'mon, Maple. Rise to it, damn you. "Don't give up, Maple!" she cried, projecting her voice as loud as she could. "You've got more in you...

    Destiny Village ~ Chip's Lab

    "Owen has plenty of inner turmoil to trouble him," replied Brisa. "Then again, I suppose just about everyone must do. Even the shaymin could be Shadowed." She turned to Chip and cocked her head. "So, what d'you suggest, fella?"

    Destiny Village ~ Chip's Lab

    "Well that's fuckin' disturbin'," muttered Brisa. She thought for a second, brow furrowing in consternation. "Don't suppose bein' possessed of sufficient peace an' positivity would act as a shield against 'em, by any chance?"

    Destiny Village ~ Chip's Lab

    "Have y'tried offerin' 'em other kinds of sustenance?" asked Brisa, still staring at the creatures. "Have y'put Red in th'same space as 'em, t'see if he can commune with 'em same as 'mon? What about exposin' 'em to various elemental an' exotic energies?" Her claws tensed as she recalled the...

    "Here it fuckin' comes," said Brisa, eyes wide and unblinking.

    Destiny Village ~ Pasta Plaza

    Luz blew out air in her best approximation of a low whistle. "That sure is some heavy thinkin' right there, partner." She offered a placating paw, comforting Petram by gripping his shoulder. Maybe if she spoke honestly about what resonated with her from what he'd said, she could help. "I feel...

    Brisa smirked, tail flicking with excitement. "He can take more hits like that, an' he's gettin' stronger every minute. Don't count the chief out jus' yet."

    Destiny Village ~ Chip's Lab

    Brisa shuddered, Radiance cascading off her fur. She winced at the searing pain in her skin, but at least she could put up a shield in a flash. She briefly considered volunteering for Chip's testing, remembered Starr spewing invective and raining down fire on her, and reconsidered. "Vicious...

    Destiny Colosseum

    They were strong, undeniably so, but they had limits to their strength. This fight was a rare opportunity to study the limits of Diyem's and Maple's abilities. Brisa watched enraptured, mentally composing plans for taking on either of them in this or that squadron configuration. Diyem would need...

    Destiny Village ~ Chip's Lab

    "I wonder how they behave when they ain't saturated with Blacklight corruption," thought Brisa out loud. She walked up to the glass and watched their movements, wondering if she'd react fast enough if one made a break for her.

    Destiny Village ~ Chip's Lab

    Brisa kept eyeing Dave, hoping her help would make a difference for him, playing out the merits of removing all alcohol from the house. It wasn't fun worrying about him, but at least it was grounding. "Howdy, Lexx," she said, quietly, wondering whether the familiar gave much of a shit about how...

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

    "Thanks, Dad," said Brisa, her voice soaked with relief. Better drop the topic for now. He'd agreed, she'd got what she wanted. Dave usually followed through if he said he'd do something. And hey, Mia had taken her side after all. Good. Brisa still wasn't sure how to interact with her outside...

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

    Brisa nodded. "It can do. Fugu's help has done me plenty of good. Got me to take better care of myself. Lotta kinds of therapy ain't so dissimilar to persuasion, though. You'll well know that our Dave ain't easily persuaded of shit." Humour to cope with concern. And gods, she was concerned...

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

    "Depends on which kind yer talkin' about," said Brisa, wondering if she was going to have to restrain the idiot fella she'd taken to calling 'Dad' just so he wouldn't do himself a nuisance. "Fer instance, a common form of therapy fer emotional wellbein' is just to talk about yer problems. A...

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

    "Sounds like important work as can wait 'til tomorrow," said Brisa, firmly. She returned with the coffee and a smile. "Howdy, Mia. He's not his best, but would y'mind stickin' around t'give a better chance of him takin' any of my goddamn advice?" Her tail flicked and she tipped her chin at...

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

    Brisa got to work making a new coffee. It occurred to her to make it with particular effort, maybe add a slice of nomel or something, to give Dave something to be pleased about but the best thing was probably familiarity and straightforward rapidity. "Y'ain't fine, an' I don't wanna hear a word...

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

    Brisa frowned, and shifted in her seat, leaning towards Dave. "Dad, you're not okay. Y'hear me? Y'need some goddamn rest. Look, lemme fix ya up another of those coffees." She moved to head over to the kitchenette again, snagging his mug with one paw. Fuck. Okay. She needed to make sure he...
