    Worried about her? "Y'wouldn't be the first. She's been ignorin' how much her exhaustion is worryin' folks fer weeks." ...Was that true? ...Yeah. Yeah, it was, wasn't it? It sounded like Vix was really struggling, though. "You, uh . . . said somethin' about bein' too tired fer blind rage?"...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorms

    What to ask Kate? Most folks would probably ask her about her shady background, her feats of daring, something like that. What would be unexpected? What might take her off her guard? ...Hmm! Luz grinned wider than she had in a while. "You ever been in love, darlin'?"

    Null Village

    Brisa smiled weakly. "Howdy, Vix. Pretty sure y'don't have legs, partner. I hope, ah... Hope you're doin' alright." Her speech turned into a yawn at the end. How tired was she? "It's good t'see you well," said Sombra, quietly. "Y'all were mighty troubled last time we saw ya."

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorms

    Luz allowed herself a fanged smirk. With Kate's hesitation, and the lack of sixes under her own cup, now seemed a fair opportunity to pounce. Certainly better to try than to raise the bet and lose another round! "I ain't lettin' you get away with that, Kate! Let's see 'em."

    Threadmarks: R10 – Resting Shadows – Brisa, Vix & Shadows

    Brisa stirred in one of the Null Village huts. How... How long had she been asleep? Had she overslept? "Don't get up. You're still recoverin'." Brisa groaned, as her Shadow put a paw to her shoulder and pressed her down into the bedding again. Sombra's voice was still that wearied wind-like...

    "Gotcha, partner." Luz rolled her dice, checked the results, had a think... "Hmm. I'll bet high. Couple fives."

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorms

    She seemed to really look up to you. "Aw, y'think so?" said Luz, feeling something in her chest. "She didn't let on around me, that's fer sure. Anyway, even if the details vary, the real Luz is credited with a lotta real good. That's pretty unusual fer a legendary pokémon in Brisa's world...

    She wasn't anything back home, it wasn't her home, she was a native of Cibus, why did he talk like this— "Eh, I don't exactly . . . exist, back home. The 'real' Luz might not look all that much like me, or talk like me, or act like me. I'm based on stories an' Brisa's fantasies. I ain't got any...

    "Yeah, th'former. New settlement of civilised folks what didn't understand the local climate yet. Natives and wilders knew to take shelter in nature, greenhorn townies not so much. The Wanderin' Light got to 'em in time to help batten down the hatches an' make safe their homes." Luz smirked to...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorms

    Luz laughed, and this time it really sounded forced. Oh, just the coolest thing the mythical person she resembled had ever done? Okay! "Well, it's all folklore, y'know?" she said, her huge smile flickering with embarassment. "So it's not like I can corroborate any of it. Bound t'be exagerated...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorms

    Luz grinned to herself. Kate was actually analysing Pleo's play like it meant anything much. Delightful. "Five fours, y'all," she drawled, stretching out. This was so inconsequential. It was perfect.

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorms

    The folks in Frontier Town were 'mean', and it wasn't out of desperation. If things became fine in the Empire, would its authorities and armed forces stop being 'mean'? No. Entrapping a thinking person and using them for protection was wrong. ...Stars, where was she getting this? From the...

    "Aid should be given freely, not coerced," said Luz, quickly. "And if yer gonna use power, y'shouldn't get to compel it from others without gettin' yer paws dirty." She surprised herself with the ease of her conviction. She . . . believed what she was saying, automatically, although she'd never...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorms

    Pleo talked about it like he really was the flesh and blood Pleo. Was that a peculiarity of speech, or did he really feel like he was 'Pleo'? Best not to ask about that, probably "Sounds like th'two of ya really hit it off. I'm guessin' there were a reason he and his were out to capture you...

    Null Forest Depths

    Brisa tried not to think too hard about what Sombra was saying or what Dave was replying. She focused on the way Dave held her tighter, the way this was okay, the way it felt like, yes, yes, he really did love her after all. In a way she couldn't put her dewclaw on exactly, she felt . . . safe...

    "Pleo, darlin', now we reveal our dice!" Luz flipped her cup to reveal a solitary three, Kate another, and Pleo, alas, with two threes and a wild one. Five total. "That's too bad, sweetheart. We're just shy of six threes betwixt us. Now Kate here gets t'ask you a question, an' y'gotta answer...
