Dave stared at the horde of Shaymin preparing another Seed Flare, panting, his legs shaking from the exertion of three consecutive attacks. How they fuck were they supposed to stop them? Raw, nauseating panic rose from his stomach in a thick, suffocating ooze. They were losing. They'd die here...

Logging two more hours of writing.

Dave opened his mouth but she'd left before he could say anything. He groaned in defeat. How the fuck did these things keep happening? Did everyone here have baggage and traumas ready to make any innocent conversation awkward? Well, fuck it. At least he had two curries. <><><><><>

Dave stared at her. "You know... maybe you should listen to your dad." Even then, just saying that made him shudder. Ugh, Jesus Christ. "Or, no, I mean, why do you want to explore these dungeons, if you can't get out and they can get you killed? What's in there that's so great?"

Logging an hour and a half of writing.

Dave's gaze lingered on her for a few seconds. "Well, preferably you don't ever go into a get-you-killed dungeon. Do you have a way to tell and get out of there?"

Dave blinked at her, a jolt of familiar dread twanging at his stomach. "Uh, how dangerous are we talking here? Cool adventure dangerous or get you killed dangerous?"

Dave broke into a wide grin. "You know what, never mind." He took a satisfied sip of his beer. Another notch of circumstantial evidence for no Arceus, he supposed. Not that you could trust anything from one world to apply in another, but if there was a virtually identical world with no Arceus in...

Dave chuckled and shook his head. "Wow. Wish that was me." He paused for a moment. "Well, they're a bunch of shady assholes who claim to have been sent by Arceus. Literally just showed up a short while back out of nowhere but supposedly Arceus was conveniently there to vouch for them so everyone...

Dave blinked. "Wait, you... what? Maple, Truffle, Soda, all of them? The God Squad? Have you just been living under a rock the entire time we've been here?"

"Where's your village, if it exists here? Relatively speaking? Do you travel to your Treasure Town much?" Dave wondered if there were alternate versions of the same people. "Do you have a 'God Squad'?"

Oh, really, did he? Who told you that, Maple? Somehow I'm not impressed. Why the fuck would Arceus trust us anyway? Because, if you forgot, we've never even met him. We had one text conversation where he abused emoticons and explained why he was totally helping but coincidentally the best thing...

"Mmmm." Dave took a sip of his beer again. "I don't know, it sounded to me like Diyem got up to some pretty dark shit before his..." He waved a paw. "His redemption, or whatever the fuck. Maybe you could ask him about it. See if he could tell you how to stop your world's Dark Matter early...

"Huh. Did you also have a Dark Matter in your world, or just the same geography?" The distribution of worlds here was curious - multiple Pokémon seemed to come from parallel versions of this particular one. And then on the other end of the scale there were people like him, humans, from worlds...

Wait. You fucking - oh my God. You fucking idiots. Why would you - fuck. Why'd you go fucking anywhere with her in the first place?

"Good question," Dave just said. He shoveled more curry into his mouth. "What's your world like? More sunshine and rainbows and happy Pokémon prancing around?"
