"That blonde girl with the Espeon partner. Her name was Kimiko. They both seem nice and very much not shady," she replied. "And then the guy with the white-ish hair, Steven. And his Aggron. If I ever couldn't find you or Laura, I'd most likely stick around them."

She blinked a few times before stopping in her stride to eye Odile. "Oh. My bad. No, this is my Pokemon from--" As Odette spoke, Odile spun around once, immediately morphing back into her tiny bat form. "̷S̴u̵r̶p̵r̷i̸s̵e̵!̶"̸ she yelled as she gleefully flapped her wings. "̵'̶G̶o̷t̷h̷...

Well, that was convenient. Odette had simply been planning to go on a solo hunt for Celebi or Jirachi or Meloetta, but if Gladion had already seen something, who was she to pass that up? "̸S̴o̵o̸o̷o̴o̸o̶o̸o̴o̵o̶o̴o̸o̴o̸o̶o̵.̷.̸.̷w̴e̸'̶r̶e̵ ̵n̷o̴t̶ ̸l̷o̸o̴k̶i̶n̶g̷ ̴f̴o̶r̸ ̴J̸i̴r̸a̶c̷h̸i̵...

While Odile eyed Zack like he was a fresh cut of steak, Odette couldn’t help but snicker in agreement. “At times? Try always,” she said. “I suppose that comes with the territory of being an entity of immense power.” “̶I̴ ̵c̷a̴n̷’̴t̸ ̵w̷a̴i̷t̷ ̸t̶o̴ ̸f̸i̴n̴d̴ ̷J̶i̵r̸a̷c̶h̸i̴ ̸s̸o̵ ̷I̴ ̵c̶a̶n̷...

Odette crossed her arms over her chest. “She’s saved my life. More than once,” she said simply. “So no ‘props’ needed, thank you kindly.” Odile narrowed her eyes. “̷T̵h̸a̶t̶ ̸i̷s̸ ̴t̶h̶e̵ ̶t̸y̸p̷i̴n̶g̶ ̸I̵ ̵a̷m̶.̷ ̵I̸s̴ ̷t̷h̴e̸r̸e̷ ̶a̷ ̴p̴r̵o̵b̶l̸e̶m̴?̴ A̷n̸d̵ ̶h̷e̶r̵e̴ ̶I̷ ̵t̴h̴o̸u̴g̷h̶t̶...

Odette huffed, resigning herself to the fact that the rest of her trip was probably just her going to be explaining herself over and over again. She supposed it was preferable to having the whole island running from her, but running on only a few hours of sleep was making this ‘explaining’ thing...

Odile snickered. “̵M̷y̴ ̷d̵e̶a̶l̸ ̶i̶s̶ ̵t̵h̸a̶t̵ ̷I̴’̸m̶ ̵a̵ ̸g̸o̴d̷ ̵a̵n̴d̴ ̶I̶ ̵c̵a̸n̶ ̴d̴o̵ ̷w̶h̶a̵t̶e̴v̴e̶r̷ ̵t̷h̶e̵ ̷a̷b̷s̷o̷l̷u̷t̷e̸ ̶f̶u̶c̸k̴ ̶I̷ ̸w̷a̶n̴t̸.̴”̷ ̷ As she spoke, she leaned back against her chair and kicked her feet up on the table as she folded her hands behind her bed...

Odette offered a half-assed smile as Enora hopped up on her chair. “Jack’s fine,” Odette said. “̴W̴h̶a̸t̴ ̵a̷b̸o̸u̸t̵ ̸J̵a̵c̴k̶a̸s̷s̵?̸”̷ Odile snickered. Enora lowered her head toward the table. “Again. Real mature.”

Odette quirked a brow at the compliment, lowering her head to hide her mouth behind her fingers. She didn’t quite know how to— “̵D̷a̶m̴n̶ ̴S̶T̵R̵A̵I̶G̴H̸T̸ ̸s̶h̴e̷’̷s̷ ̵a̴n̶ ̴e̵m̶p̵r̸e̵s̵s̸,̷”̸ ̸“̷Y̴o̶u̵ ̵d̸o̵n̵’̶t̶ ̷k̸n̴o̸w̶ ̵w̴h̷o̶ ̸t̵h̷e̴ ̴f̴u̵c̷k̶ ̸y̸o̶u̸’̶r̶e̶ ̷t̷a̵l̴k̷i̶n̶g̷ ̷t̴o̷.̵...

Odile stood up to say something, but Odette grabbed her arm and pulled her back down, effectively silencing whatever remark was brewing. “And what was there to be a hero for? What were you stopping?” she asked. “You saw something that you’d never seen before and your first instinct was to...

Odette was mindlessly sipping from her water, head against the wall as Odile flicked pieces of a straw wrapper at her. One bounced off the side of her neck, but she didn’t appear bothered. “What are you doing,” she said tiredly. “̸H̵o̷l̶d̷ ̴s̸t̷i̵l̴l̷,̵ ̷I̸’̴m̸ ̴t̵r̵y̸n̶a̸ ̷h̸i̴t̸ ̸y̷o̵u̵r̶...

Enora snorted. “I might be a lady, but ladies aren’t above defending their humans from brutes such as yourselves. Tread lightly, bird.” She wrinkled her nose, her eyes narrowing in doubt. It didn’t seem like either of them were being insincere, or appeared as if they were powering up to battle...

Enora stopped dead in her tracks, just before she hopped up onto her chair. Her ears fell back against her head as her lips curled over her teeth. She turned around to Zack, and arched her back defensively. “You’re asking for my name now?” she growled. “A little overdue for that, isn’t it?”...

Odette was mid-way through perhaps her hundredth yawn since she officially woke up. She’d called Armel, and before she knew it, the sun was rising on the horizon. She wasn’t sure when exactly she fell asleep, but when she did awaken again, it was 11am and the call was still running. It certainly...

Odette twirled her empty glock around her index finger, staring up at the skylight mindlessly as her ears fixed on Enora lightly snoring next to her. She found that no matter how much she tried, she couldn't fall asleep. Whether it was from the events of the day, or the talk she had with Steven...

She cut her gaze back up to him as he started talking again. The horror had left his face, now replaced with something more...pitiful. She wasn't sure if that was any better. She stiffened her posture and cleared her throat. "Not your fault. Anything dredges them up nowadays," she sighed. "You...

All she did at first was blink. On pure instinct, she reached for her water and took a long drink from it. "Uh, yeah," she said upon swallowing. "That was me." She rolled her shoulders uncomfortably, a sense of familiar unease pricking up the middle of her spine. She could see his horror...

Odette held up her hands, almost as if she were surrendering. "No harm done. Initially," she said. "Those birds wouldn't leave me the fuck alone and I'm convinced they'd have followed me back to my room if you didn't show up." She snickered bitterly as she grabbed hold of her glass again. "Not...
