    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Brisa's expression shifted rapidly through a subtle gauntlet of confusion, surprise, delight, and then back to dry composure. Still, her face softened a little at Soul's earnestness. "A mon has the right to keep their thoughts private," she admonished gently. "But there's no doubtin' that's a...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz slapped her belly lightly. "Whatever this is, it's gut enough fer me. And it's tellin' me I like to fight. Although... Ain't that the case fer pretty much all pokémon? And I guess I'm a pokémon, weird body aside." Something buzzed in Luz' mind. ...Brisa? "Looks like my gut is tellin' me...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz nodded eagerly. "I haven't done anythin' yet, but I remember what Brisa enjoys and I have a feelin' about what I do and don't also like. Readin' ain't so much my thing, but stargazin' with friends sounds mighty shiny. And sparrin'. That one I feel in my..." She looked down at herself. She...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz shrugged. "I'm just happy to try things out, let stuff happen, do my thing. And hey, you don't need to be hungry to enjoy a snack. You got any inkling yet what you might enjoy doin'?" She gestured an open palm toward Celeste. "What d'you like to do with yer time, fella?"

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Oh, imitation? The sincerest form of flattery, to be sure. This one wanted to be a personality! Well, Luz would make an excellent role model~ "I quite like the ring of 'Soul', too," said Luz. "Say, Soul—have you tried eatin', yet? Let alone any of this street food? It's shining fare, I tell ya...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz beamed. Oh, what a bright and hopeful response! And she had a friend now, which was all kinds of splendid. "Well how about that? We're each of our first friends. Y'can call me whatcha like, friend, but I go by Luz 'cause I like to bring light where I go. It would be my pleasure to get to...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    "You're a shy one," Luz remarked at Soul as they shrank back. "Made any friends yet? I've existed for all of half an hour and I'm lookin' to make some." She chuckled brightly. Existing was already so interesting.

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz nodded. "Glad to hear it, fella. A mon needs friends in a world as strange as this. Don'tcha think?" She took a sly glance at Soul while enjoying some more of her street food. Thank goodness for dexterous paws that could handle chopsticks.

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way

    Luz grinned. These two just absolutely reeked of awkwardness. Good thing she was here. "That I am, lil' shade. I'm bound to Luxio Brisa, for my sins." Now, what was the best play here? She could go in directly with a comment on poor Soul's lack of physical definition, or take the scenic route...

    Destiny Village ~ Parfait Way
    Threadmarks: R6 – Luz, Celeste & Soul

    Brisa arrived at Parfait Way almost feeling comfortable, with Starr keeping up the conversation with a mix of cajoling and levity, and Luz pitching in every time Brisa felt a twinge of uncertainty. Eventually, Luz's habit of killing awkward silences before they could be noticed felt like a...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorm Lounge

    Well. That was unambiguous. And... reassuring. Brisa let herself relax, with some difficulty. "Okay," she said. "Yeah. I'm comin'!" "That's the spirit, darlin'!" said Luz, striding off towards the exit with no further banter. Brisa followed, choosing to keep pace with Starr rather than the...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorm Lounge

    Brisa hesitated. It wasn't like she was comfortable in Starr's presence yet, especially after what happened at Shaymin Village, which Starr had just brushed off when Brisa tried to apologise, and what happened when 'Mewtwo' appeared, which they hadn't discussed at all... but Brisa still wanted...

    Pokémon Continental Divides

    This chapter is a strong opening to the fic, with strong opening paragraphs that set the mood and provide plenty of worldbuilding elements in a way that is economical with wordcount and renders Natalie an interesting, sympathetic protagonist in short order. There's a good balance struck here...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorm Lounge

    Brisa balked for a moment, then found herself stifling a dry chuckle. Starr's brother had... badly copied Luz. Okay. Incredible. "Hey, the lad has taste," mused Luz, with a paw to her chin. "Can't say he's done half as good a job as I have, but that's menfolk for you." The zeraora crouched...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorm Lounge

    Brisa's tail rose at Starr's odd praise, but she was still too flustered by the whole event to muster much of a response. "Uh, how d'you do, Lexx?" she managed. Luz grinned and waved. "Hey, Lexx. Reckon he'll come out as a torracat too, or somethin' else?" There was a deep feeling of...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorm Lounge

    That was as good as an invitation for company. Well... darn! Brisa was about to reply with a positive response when Starr drew her attention back to Luz's energetic stirring. "Oh, don't worry about Luz," she said. "It does this damn near any time I'm interactin' with people. In fact–" But she...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Dorm Lounge

    Brisa made a begrudging face of agreement. People were more chill here. Hell, they celebrated her feats of combat in the colosseum. "This ain't the first time you've said the team likes me," she mused. "Still can't say it feels true to me. But maybe I'm lookin' at it with the sun in my eyes and...

    "I want to have a good time, I just can't help but think I'm gonna make an ass of myself." Brisa bent down and picked up Luz to hold it close. In her paws, the stone calmed a little, still vibrating intensely. "The last time I attended a fancy shindig, I offended the mayor's boy somehow and...
