    Spirits' Edge

    The travelling spirits entered the dream, to be met with an overwhelming impression of dry earth, parched scrub, and a looming, flame-kissed storm. On the western horizon, the sun held still, setting eternally below orange and violet clouds. To the east stood towering red sandstone buttes...

    Spirits' Edge

    "Buffet helped Brisket meet her pa, an' he's still alive," murmured Luz, her gaze intent on whatever Buffet was seeking. "I reckon a livin' Zeraora Luz would be interested t'meet me, at least..." She felt something she recognised as somewhere between fear and joy. Excitement? It ought to be...

    Spirits' Edge

    Reforming was possible, and reform Luz did. She spent so much of her time on Cibus tinkering with her body to make it appear more real; it was less trouble for her than for Cal to make herself an aspect from tiny stars. The not-zeraora became a little galaxy of lights, burning dimly in the...

    Luz beamed. "Friend, so would I." <><><><><>

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    "Right, point taken. I don't understand these things all the time either. Folks used t'be cross with me a lot fer it. Brisa used be cross pretty much constantly. I'm learnin', though." Luz strolled to the front door, snapping her digits as the thought. "Hey, Flesh. It's been a real pleasure...

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

    "Yeah, nah. Not that. She's good." Brisa sniffed, wiped her mouth with the back of her paw. "She gets it." When Dave looked unenlightened, she elaborated, not keeping eye contact. "She fights me. Uses a defensive stance, lets me go all-out without worryin' about her not bein' able to take it...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz nodded. "Yeah, fair enough. Worth me hangin' around, talkin' in person?" She replaced Soda's personal affects where they'd been, humming casually to herself.

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz didn't quite know what to make of the magazines. She understood the principle, more or less. Brisa wasn't entirely ignorant, and so neither was she. But she couldn't get her head around the point of it. Couldn't appreciate the appeal. She supposed some of the models were quite pretty. Very ...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Oh hell, was Soda planning on doing something that might result in getting killed or going missing somehow? He was a God Squaddie, so whatever he had in mind would have to be spectacularly high stakes. Unless he was just being careful about a vulnerable friend... Were there drawers that might...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz chuckled. "I don't doubt ya! Maybe we'll have to take him on last of all. But I bet we can do it if we get a fair bit stronger, an' take him on three-at-a-time the way we've been doin' so far. I think we're fightin' Truffle next! Say, Flesh, do y'all have a pen an' paper I can borrow...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    "Hey," said Luz, with as disarming a smile and spread arms as she could muster, "the team were worried for a spell that folks'd see their wild Blacklight powers as pretty scary. Turns out the crowd love that stuff. They were big fans of Leg when she went all-out recently. I bet you'd do fine...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz grinned enormously. "Is that so? Well, I can help with that! I'll find out from someone in the Guild what a good forest might be and I'll spend an afternoon with ya keepin' company while you chow down. As fer the Colosseum... Well, of course I'd be happy to go see a match with ya. So would...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz squinted at the questionable magazines. What was that Soda feller into, anyhow? She nodded agreeably. "Yeah, the folks on Cibus sure seem nice. They've accepted the shades easily enough. Weren't hard fer the team and even Dark Matter 'imself t'get in good with the authorities by provin'...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    "Lucky thing they found ya, then," mused Luz. "Can't see as you'd have done too well without 'em. Now that you're part of the team, I take it yer life ain't too bad, huh?" Luz looked around, casually, wondering what kind of home life these two had, anyway. Would anything about their rooms tell...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz nodded. "It ain't my specialty, but I can give it a go, I guess. It's just hard not to be a li'l cross with my siblings for bein' so gosh-darn irrational. I know yer right about Joule, though. I never met a 'mon that means so well as he does, I think." She gave Flesh another smile. "What's...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz grimaced. "Many of us are afraid of him, yeah. I'm not. He's done nothin' t'make us scared, if'n ya ask me. Hell, I'm glad t'think that I could be part of him again if I ever wanted that. So, no. I ain't worried about it." She rubbed her cheek and sighed. "The fire dragon's daughter is...

    Offscreen Activities

    Luz insists casually but firmly, to any shade that asks, that the fretting about Joule is unwarranted. She feels like she's not supposed to be relieved that he could reabsorb her if she asked, and a rare edge of defensive hostility can be heard in her voice as she defends the necrozma's personal...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz nodded, smiled. Gee, the big guy was kinda sweet. "Yeah, I think talking in general can be hard. If you can find people with the right kinda patience or whatever else, it's worth it, though, right? Like the fire dragon. He is nice, ain't he? I'm his friend, too. I can be yer friend, if'n...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz peered at the device and the hologram. What a marvel. And she'd no idea it existed. "Remarkable! Nobody ever said ya had somethin' like this. I'm sure more folks'd come hang out with ya if'n they had any idea they could hold down a conversation with ya."

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

    "Bean?" asked Brisa, confused for a second. "Ah, no. Not Bean. Fugu. The samurott?" She scratched her cheek, wondered how much to tell Dave if he didn't ask. Or if he did.
