    Rocky Road ~ Home of Sword, Shield, Cynthian, and Skara

    Darkwhite had been pretty fucking powerful with Blacklight to hand. Even without that corruption, Sword was doubtless a worthy opponent. She was a deity, wasn't she? By the laws of this world, anyway. Shield . . . as a girl? ...Huh. She kinda wanted to see that. But no. Not important. "I'm up...

    Rocky Road ~ Home of Sword, Shield, Cynthian, and Skara

    Brisa grinned and looked for a comfy spot to loaf on. These two, huh? "Well, fair enough, Shield. I'd probably just hand yer tail t'ya. But Sword's got a point. I'm sure that solo, she could give me a real drubbin'. Sound like fun, partner?"

    Rocky Road ~ Home of Sword, Shield, Cynthian, and Skara

    Brisa chuckled. "This is Cibus. All y'gotta do is shake out a satchel-bag and half a dozen heroes will fall out." So, Pop was gonna talk to them? Somehow Brisa doubted it would be a special mission. She hoped not, for Shield's sake. Poor fella. "Y'know, if you're gettin' restless, have...

    Rocky Road ~ Home of Sword, Shield, Cynthian, and Skara

    Of course. Of course, yeah, they were already friends. Brisa's face broke out into a relieved smile and her voice cracked just a little. "Yeah, Sword, we're friends. Jus' real glad you feel that way too after all that's happened." She eyed Shield appraisingly, fascinated once again by the...

    Rocky Road ~ Home of Sword, Shield, Cynthian, and Skara

    Brisa stepped lightly into the pair's home, her whole body relaxing from the affability Sword was radiating. "I've been meanin' t'come see how you are an' all since we got ya free and safe," she explained. "But also, I guess... Well, I guess I wanted t'see if y'wanted t'be friends. I never knew...

    Rocky Road ~ Home of Sword, Shield, Cynthian, and Skara

    Brisa smiled. Well, that sure seemed promising. "Sword's right, y'know," she said, with a tiny smirk. "If y'got beans, y'got paws." She laughed at the mew's delighted expression. "It's nice t'see ya, Sword."

    Threadmarks: R12 – x – Brisa & Sword

    Brisa had checked on Sword a couple times in the infirmary after the rescue operation, but it seemed that half the team was doing that, and she was out of it half the time, so she left it til Sword was discharged to pay a visit. "Hallo, any of y'all home?" she called from outside, knocking...

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

    Bless this kid. She needed to keep him safe. What was Diyem thinking, bringing whelps like Koa into a situation like this? Well, judging by his fierce conviction, his courage, and his earnest good will, maybe he was exactly the sort of person who should be here. "Glad t'hear it," she said of...

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

    Brisa took a steadying breath. "First off, remember that the team has squared up against legends and livin' superweapons and the like plenty of times afore now and always come out on top. We ain't outta time jus' yet. Keep a brave heart, Koa." She pawed at her mouth, thinking as fast as she...

    Destiny Village ~ Pasta Plaza

    A . . . sister? It was a struggle to speak, for a moment. When she laughed it off, it didn't sound at all authentic. But like heck was she gonna let a stranger make her choke up in a minute flat. "I guess so? I figure if we're anythin', 'sisters' fits us better'n most monikers." She gave the...

    Destiny Village ~ Pasta Plaza

    Luz laughed. What a cutie. He and Koa must make a right pair. Lucky them. "Yeah, I guess I'm s'posed to resemble Zeraora Luz Escarpa, the Wanderin' Light. I, ah, met her recently in a dream of sorts, and we ain't too much alike. Plus I don't have a history of my own, or the power or...

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

    Brisa nodded, listened, tried to force her face into something that was neither a frown, nor a smile, nor a stoic grimace. The kid blurted out a whole tale, a mile a minute, confirming himself as both as a champion noisebox but also as a boy with such a good heart, oh, how hers ached for him...

    Destiny Village ~ Pasta Plaza

    Luz smiled at the earnest critter. She liked this one. She tended to like shades. They were so often so raw. All the character of a full life, placed int a context where none of it was relevant except their personal expression. "Like I said, I got friends aplenty. Just none as couldn't stand to...

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

    Koa—! Brisa rose from her spread of notes on the coffee table and whirled round it to Koa. She wanted to ask, was he safe? Where'd he been? But the way he was speaking, maybe it was best to listen, even though her fur threatened to spark off from the adrenaline firing up in her. "Okay, Koa,"...

    Destiny Village ~ Pasta Plaza

    Being important, huh? Having a special bond. Best friends who trusted each other. Sounded real nice. "I dunno if I got anyone like that, exactly. I think I get on okay with a lotta folks, but the only special bond I'm sure of is more like family than what yer talkin' about, and it ain't so...

    Destiny Village ~ Pasta Plaza

    Luz grinned at the compliment. Aw, Koa said that about her? It felt good, hearing something nice said about her. Especially behind her back! What was Echo getting at, though? Obviously something he was delighted about. Luz had heard a little about human pokémon trainers, but not much...

    Destiny Colosseum

    "Y'hear that?" said Brisa to Starr, quietly. "We gave 'em the kind of drubbin' they ain't had since fightin' the tao dragons." Starr's face wore that mild exasperation she often had . . . but also acceptance. There was a glimmer of a begrudging crooked grin in there, daring to be pleased about...

    Destiny Village ~ Pasta Plaza

    Luz had been wandering idly around Pasta Plaza as she often did of a free afternoon, taking in the sights and smells and sounds with pleasure, and occasionally introducing herself to a curious stranger. It wasn't every day that the curious stranger was another shade, though! "Woah, hey there...

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

    Brisa gripped Dave in return so much she worried she might crush him, or forget how to let go. "Just be safe," she said, quietly. And then, wondering whether she ought to have just kept her mouth shut about the whole thing, she let him go. <><><><><>
