    Reverse World ~ Core

    Brisa stuck the landing, and the jolt of impact was nearly enough to make her retch, were there anything in her stomach to void. She was beyond being fazed by the absurdity of their new environment. Just add it to the tally of stressful experiences. She decided, somewhere in her crackling...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    Brisa grit her teeth hard enough to hurt, and clung tight to Starr. Just a little more bullshit left, and they'd be home. Not long now. Home soon. Home soon. 'Home.' Cibus wasn't home. It wasn't Starr's home. Or Astrid's. Or Curio's. Or hers. She told herself she just wanted to be back...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    "That must be us!" exclaimed Brisa, desperate relief bleeding back into her voice. "We should hurry back. Oh, fallin'? I got no trouble with heights. As for my- my, uh. My friend, I have no idea, but she might as well remain unconscious for the trip. I hope your son won't mind carrying her."...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    Brisa swallowed hard. Politeness was important. You didn't turn down hospitality. She glanced at Starr's sleeping form again, and decided that food poisoning could probably finish the litten off. "Thank you for this, Ma'am," she said with care, "but I fear our bodies work differently to yours...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    "I am very hungry," answered Brisa, quietly, not sure whether her nod or her 'yes' or both had been taken for its opposite meaning. This was gonna give her such a headache. She waited until Boulder left to lay down and rub her face with her paws. Gods. Fuck. She just wanted to be back in Cibus...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    Brisa nodded without hesitation. "Yes, Ma'am, we haven't eaten in some days. I appreciate your hospitality. And, ah, do call me Shinx if that's less discomfitin'. Or would a name like... 'Breccia' help me fit in around here?" Mud? Mud. Either it meant something different here, or it had...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    Brisa smiled dryly. More nonsense it was. That was alright. Unlimited nonsense was better than starving to death in a dark hole with someone who hated her. (Did Starr hate her? She didn't fucking know anymore.) "I'm sure feelin' better, Ma'am. Your son saved our lives, for which I'm sorely...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    Brisa roused herself first. Maybe Starr was hit harder by the use of her Radiance, maybe Brisa was simply more robust. In any case, she let the human-litten rest. Her tactical mind flickered into sputtering life to assess her situation. She was... warm. Her sliced-up paw had been bandaged. The...

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    They... weren't dead. They survived. "Looks like we aren't doin' any mercy killin'," said Brisa, with considerable relief. She stared at the new terrain presenting itself to her. It was rougher than it had been, more 'steep' than 'sheer.' What had been an unscaleable edifice was now a rugged...

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa kept her gaze level. She saw fear, mostly, when she looked in Starr's eyes now. What did Starr see in hers? Was there anything to see? "Yes," she said, softly. "I do."

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa looked Starr plainly in the face, her own expression drawn by fatigue of every variety. She didn't have the energy to think through the human's psychology right now. "I'm not stupid, Starr. Neither are you. Nobody would be around to kill me. I would be alone, and die slowly. I know this...

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa made a non-committal noise in her throat. "Yeah," she said. "I'm sure that's right." She wasn't much good at lying. The fact was, she'd accepted when she took this mission that Diyem might be lying or mistaken. Maybe wherever they were was beyond his reach. That was okay with her. She...

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa smiled ruefully to herself. She was going to have to get used to a certain abrasiveness from Starr, if they were going to be... on speaking terms, she supposed. Or even friends, maybe? Did you become friends if you lived through something like this together? She didn't know, and she wasn't...

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa fought down the impulse to defend herself. 'Self-pitying garbage'. Like she hadn't tried asking for help from others in the past and been turned down? Like Starr had given such a strong impression that she'd be willing to help? But then again, Starr pulled through for teammates, grudge or...

    Pokémon The Legendarian Chronicles

    Time for a mega-review consisting mostly of cannibalised reactions and liveblogging. You know the drill~ Ch17 Ch18 Ch19 Ch20 Ch21 Ch22 Ch23 The Experience of Binging 19-23 In One Night:

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa shrugged. "Hey, you're welcome. Don't be so surprised—I've been hungry for longer than this before today. That's all I've got, though." Unless you fancy gettin' by on my corpse, she didn't say. Starr didn't like morbid comments like that. She pulled some strips out for herself, and took...

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa nodded. Starr surely wasn't wrong. "He seemed kinda... frustrated, that I took it so well." Kind of like you, Starr... "He said he was workin' towards comin' clean to everyone, startin' with the most receptive. Seemed fair. He explained himself well enough for me to continue trustin'...

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa frowned for a moment. Starr kept looking away and shutting up whenever she tried being reassuring or gentle in some way. Was it... unwelcome? Something to think about. "Yeah, I've felt a similar kind of way," she said. "I made a decision to trust him when I came here, shady as he is, but...

    Blacklight ~ Art & Doodles

    Thought I'd celebrate three rounds of Blacklight and my personal artistic improvement with a re-draw of the first Brisa pic I ever did.

    Reverse World ~ Rockfall Cavern

    Brisa grinned. It was a profoundly unfamiliar facial movement, but... it felt good. Great, even. "You're serious? I mean, I know why you're sayin' that, but still. You give a shit about people, you're capable of change, you have a friend who believes in your better nature even after seein' you...
