    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    She took the nearest available seat—by Dave's shadow—and received her drink with gratitude. "What ain't I been up to." Brisa considered what was worth mentioning or not. May as well tell him the gist, some of the most notable details. If he was curious, he'd ask for more. Sounded better than...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Gods, they had so little time left. Fuck, she needed a drink so bad, she'd needed a drink all the damn time since the bubble went up and she'd barely touched the stuff and please let her have earned it. As she entered the Cauldron, she saw a friend of hers evidently experiencing similar...

    Brisa Turn 2 The team—my friends—are at their best when I give them cover. I'll lend Cabot a paw as he makes his approach! Brisa used Helping Hand! There's no way I'd let Starr's best efforts go to waste! I'll give her the boost she needs to really lay on the hurt! Brisa used Helping Hand! I...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    It was nice to see someone both strong and idealistic, and yet happy. Cabot didn't always have it right, but . . . it was nice to think a mon could be all those things. "You know me, Cabot," said Brisa, some cheer returning to her tired voice. "I'll take on anyone. Who're y'thinkin' of?"

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa worked through her own lunch as Cabot spoke, barely tasting it despite how good it was. (Cibus had the best food, goddamn.) At least Cabot understood why mindreading would bother her, it'd be a worry if he didn't. And what he was saying was . . . reasonable. "...Y'know, Cabot, it's kinda...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    Brisa squared up for the showdown that had occupied damn near every waking moment since they'd returned to Destiny Village from the fight at the lab. She wasn't alone, she reminded herself. She had the team, and she'd done everything she possibly could to prepare them, and herself, for this...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa nodded as Cabot yarned on in response. Stars, but the lad was naive, wasn't he? It was honestly a nice change of pace from some of the attitudes on the posse. Still, mind-reading as a 'convenient solution' for the state military? Good fucking gods. "Luz is encouragin' 'cause she don't...

    ....Alright, here she went. "Delphox Jesse Stranger was . . . is . . . my father. He used to read my mind all the damn time t'check if I had my shit t'gether. Havin' my thoughts an' feelings scrutinised jus' takes me back to those times. Makes me feel like I'm gonna fall short, earn a lecture...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa nodded along as Cabot explained what the team had more or less fully covered by now. Some of the techniques he described, she was already using to some extent, or close enough. She'd learned to talk about her emotions without being consumed by them, to a point. Maybe Cabot's feelings just...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa listened closely. Interesting that Owen had turned Cabot down—though she was sure the charmeleon had his reasons. This wasn't a solution, though... Just a preamble. What had Cabot learned? "Can't say I've been keen t'summon my shadow, either," she admitted. "Meetin' mine was disturbin'...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Ah, excellent. Time to have a chinwag. "Howdy, Cabot. Been busy, yeah." Judging by the kid's appearance, he was in perfect fighting nick as always. She'd expected that. The cranidos was nothing if not diligent (and idealistic). They wouldn't need to discuss the basics. Brisa was much more...

    Threadmarks: R9 – Shadows and Shades – Brisa & Cabot

    Another mealtime, another opportunity to touch base with a teammate. Brisa went to the cafeteria counter and bought herself some paw food, just in case Cabot declined and she left for training elsewhere, eating on the move... Hopefully he was available. Flexible and adaptive scheduling meant...

    Destiny Colosseum ~ Stands

    "Sure y'would've, partner!" Luz agreed, laughing as Puddle dropped off and followed Vix away. "Seeya round, y'all," called Brisa, smiling unexpectedly. Brisa gave a wave to her departing friends. How strange to have so many, after so long assuming it was impossible. If they were on Cibus much...

    Destiny Colosseum ~ Stands

    Jesse and Sierra... They weren't the greatest, no. Not in every measure, anyhow. Vix didn't even know that it was their absence which had been killing Brisa for years, nor that she'd dealt with Jesse after coming to Cibus... Now wasn't the time to explain all that. "I dunno, Vix. Maybe I'll...

    Destiny Colosseum ~ Stands

    Gods, she'd hit that target in one, huh. "Uh, yeah. My pa's human. He was brought to my world specifically t'save it an' I guess he stuck around to have me." She didn't know how to explain how hard that had made her life, or even if she should. Being miserable wasn't a great way to make a...

    Destiny Colosseum ~ Stands

    Brisa grinned darkly. Eera and Castiss were bandit-hunters, huh? They sounded rather more deadly than Brisa ever was, but she'd certainly come back from her share of missions covered in outlaws' blood. "Ah, well... I always admired the Wanderin' Light, Zeraora Luz Escarpa. Grew up hearin'...

    Destiny Colosseum ~ Stands

    Brisa chewed that one over for a second. Certainly all the folks on Team Spectrum, the God Squad, the Luz of myth and the Luz beside her, and her own parents... They were all different. All good fighters, sure, but there wasn't even a single way to do that, as she kept telling Icetales and other...

    Destiny Colosseum ~ Stands

    Well, Vix was sure excited about being a hero, or something like that... Brisa could talk about that. Albeit with some discomfort. "Wait, so when you say 'hero', y'don't rightly know what y'have in mind?" asked Brisa. "Even so, it's . . . admirable, that you'd wanna be one. Even if I ain't...
