    Oh, Brisa. You're very stupid.

    Grass Continent ~ Treasure Town Beach

    "Uh, okay! ...be seein' ya, Curio!" Brisa almost went in for another quick hug, but nerves held her back, and she waved a goodbye as she loped off back along the beach. Well, that went great. Really great. Good talk. Good hug. But oh, stars. What was going on with her heart? It was pounding a...

    Grass Continent ~ Treasure Town Beach

    Brisa made a sound that was half-laugh, half-snort. "Huh? 'Pard'ner'? Curio, I don't sound anythin' like that!" She savoured the hug a little longer before letting go, still anxious not to hug for longer than was okay. Once it ended, she was left with a fullness in her chest and a lightness in...

    Grass Continent ~ Treasure Town Beach

    It wasn't a hug, just a handshake-! Fuck, were they not close enough for hugs? Did they make Curio feel trapped? Was it too soon after their last hug? It hadn't been a week yet, that might be too soon. What if it wasn't okay-??? oh gods oh gods oh gods goddamnit, she should just trust her...

    Grass Continent ~ Treasure Town Beach

    Curio wouldn't give up on her. Even if she lost everything else... Brisa would count on that. Why was her heart beating so hard? Brisa tentatively put out a paw and took Curio's in hers. She wasn't sure what to do. Was this... a handshake?

    Grass Continent ~ Treasure Town Beach

    "Starr? Yeah, I... I think so? I don't know if she considers me a friend, but she's my friend. And- and so are you." Brisa felt her ears burn. "That's what's gettin' me through this right now. Knowin' I got at least some friends that ain't givin' up on me." Oh, sky and stars. Was it too much...

    'Self-pity.' Starr had said something about that, too. 'Pity party'. Was that really what she was doing? Brisa flinched at the recrimination, but... Curio believed she could get better. Curio was talking to her even after the... the mauling. And yet... "I'm tryin', Curio. I'm really tryin' so...

    Grass Continent ~ Treasure Town Beach

    Brisa nodded, her own eyes beginning to water. "Thanks, Curio..." A sharp pang of shame made her let go of Curio as she steeled herself to finish what she was leading to. "I thought I stood a chance of changin', of bein' better than Jesse thought I was. I know how to hold back in sparrin'...

    Grass Continent ~ Treasure Town Beach

    Brisa shook her head hard, feeling an awful tightness in her chest. "No, no, Curio... you don't gotta be sorry, or tell me anythin' at all. I figured it was somethin' like that." She gingerly put out a paw to comfort her friend. Was that... okay? She hoped so. She rested it on Curio's shoulder...

    Grass Continent ~ Treasure Town Beach

    Brisa nodded dumbly. More mnemonics. A soft sigh. "Sometimes I can believe that, Curio. But not always." Everything Brisa could think of to say terrified her. What if it wasn't okay to say? What if it hurt Curio? Or drove her away? She couldn't think it all through. She couldn't anticipate...

    Threadmarks: R5 – How To Traumatise Your Daughter

    The battle at Shaymin Village could have gone better. But they'd made it through. The staff at the Treasure Town Guild infirmary had taken Astrid and Starr into their care, to be transferred and discharged at the medical centre in Destiny Village. Soon, Brisa and Curio would follow to their new...

    Shaymin Village

    Brisa nodded. "Yeah. Yeah, of course. You're right." "Sure thing, partner. Let's leave these gals with the guild infirmary, and then find somewhere quiet." What a battle. What a... whatever that was. Gods, but she had a lot of difficult conversations ahead of her.

    Shaymin Village

    "They'll need a stay in the guild clinic by my reckonin'. Oh gods. They better make it through this or I'll..." She didn't finish speaking. Brisa hefted Astrid over her back like she'd done for dozens of stranded travellers in dungeons back home, but there was a different feeling this time...

    Shaymin Village

    Brisa kept searching, seeing fallen allies stumbling to their feet. But there. Astrid. Starr. Both of them were... Out cold. Definitely just unconscious. She had to check on them, but oh, how her heart was hammering. "Oh gods. Yes. Okay. Just, uh... Please help me check on Astrid and Starr...

    Shaymin Village

    Brisa gasped and braced herself against the smashed turf of the battlefield. They'd won. Again. Despite everything. Despite... her. She looked up at Curio and winced as she saw the still-fresh injuries she'd dealt her friend only moments ago. But... this wasn't the time to wallow in guilt and...

    Shaymin Village

    Brisa looked up at Starr, who had made it out of that pit with her, who didn't hate her even now, who still believed she could change, and the shadows fell away further. She watched her friend—her friend—bolt towards the dark machine in a blaze of glory, and she wanted nothing less than to die...

    Shaymin Village

    Only the great hero, Delphox Jesse Stranger, the human-made-mon, the psychic, her father. But Dave didn't need to know that. He didn't need to understand. He only needed to believe that she was dangerous. She wasn't going to kill anyone. She would never kill a thinking person. The whole point...

    "Maybe now you'll realise what I am," growled Brisa. "Maybe now you'll put me outta my misery." Her eyes flared with Radiance as she conjured those same flickering bars of light which had tormented them both, even as her shadow-self's face streamed with tears. The restraints crackled into place...

    Shaymin Village

    Brisa was a violent animal. Jesse had told her. He'd been right. She remembered now. Yes. She remembered, now. Brisa's paws crackled with vicious lightning as she prowled forward towards Curio. "You shouldn't forgive me," she snarled. "There's no way you could forgive me." Brisa shot...
