    Overgrow Forest

    Laura grinned and nodded firmly. "Yeah. I feel more confident of good results and our mutual safety, sticking together like this." Malachai sent a flood of information her way. <Aggron filled me in on what's been discovered besides the obvious.> "So, the energies here are pretty consistent...

    Overgrow Forest

    Malachai needed a minute to plot a low-risk landing, and as he circled around, more figures became visible throough the trees. Jade made it out okay, then. Good. And according to Malachai, the aggron was partners with one 'Steven'. Laura wasn't the biggest overseas League buff in Galar, or...

    Overgrow Forest

    Balancing the demands of both her pokémon partners and trying to get enough sleep to prop up her own dwindling energy was a tough ask already, and solo investigation was a crazy, stupid thing to be doing on top of that. And that was without considering the threat of abduction, which she wasn't...

    Malachai stared at Aggron for a moment, the lingering gusts of his windstorm still whistling in his ears. In the midst of battle, he could hear an opponent's heart beat, their lungs fill and empty, whenever they drew close. Malachai drew close now, and listened. Aggron's pulse didn't sound...

    Good. Whatever this 'mon's troubles were, any answer that would not trouble Malachai was a fine development indeed. Malachai landed on the beach, concentrating for a moment to draw on Roost, despite his rustiness. With a hateful grunt, he tensed his torso and channelled healing energy to his...

    A counter. Expected, but threatening. Malachai rolled and pulled away. Even so— BRAPCK. The impact cracked Malachai across his ribcage, and something cracked nastily inside his chest. He pulled his lip back in a snarl, and came around, fighting for momentum. He wasn't done. <Clever trick...

    Torrent Beach

    Malachai narrowed his eyes as he looked down at his opponent. Pride kept him from simply leaving, which the aggron could certainly not prevent. Humility kept him from diving in a full-on attack, bound to result in the brute's bulk coming fully to bear against him. Instead, he built velocity...

    Malachai took the lightning strike and let out a guttural hiss of displeasure as he spent altitude to gain speed. But aggron were not mages, as a species, and the attack was pathetic compared to the hail of stones. Malachai spat fire again, already thinking through his next moves. All his...

    Torrent Beach

    Malachai didn't stop to snarl or bellow; he leapt upwards, wings beating down hard enough to send loose sand into the air between them, and provide cover for his manouever backward. He needed distance. <Have it your way,> he sent, icily. <Make your master proud.> Malachai intended to do...

    Torrent Beach

    Malachai huffed, and stared impassively at the display of aggression. The rocks would hurt him if they hurtled through the air to strike him, but first Aggron would need to hurl them. Accurately, no less. <Is that so? It seems your desire to battle has nothing to do with me. I ask you this...

    The aggron did not meet Malachai's eyes as he answered. Interesting. Malachai would not leave such discomfort unprobed. <Really?> he sent, drily. <Does your Steven have enmity for me? Or has he merely sent you to test your strength against me?> Idly, he wondered about Aggron's combat style...

    Torrent Beach

    Malachai snorted irritably. An earthen brute, at first glance. But strong, and with a tight grip on his own honour. That, he liked. <You have my attention, Aggron. I am called Malachai, and I attend this island as guardian to my master, Laura of Circhester. Do you challenge me in the service of...

    Torrent Beach

    Malachai felt a mass of rock fly past his skull that would most certainly have sent him reeling, if not actually knocked him out. He turned his glare on the attacking 'mon, wondering if allowing him to approach out of curiosity had been poor judgement on his own part. So, an aggron, was he? Not...

    Threadmarks: [Day 5] Malachai & Aggron

    When he left his shadow on the waves, Malachai recalled why he preferred to hunt at night. One spooked one's prey by alerting them to the presence of a large creature above the surface. But his master was diurnal, and as such, so must he be. Base creatures of flesh alone could not escape the...

    Sleet cackled. Eggs. Howling fuck. "That is so grosssss and dumb," she replied, making a face. "Plussss Ssleet would get tirrred. And have to eat ssso much food." She grinned, dangling an arm down from her perch. "You'rrre weirrrrrd," she added. "Ssleet likesss you. Let usss be frrriendss."...

    Hunger Switch Cafe

    Malachai nodded grimly, and something of a shudder went down his great neck. <Yes,> he sent, softly, <our choices affect each other, also.> Laura wet her lips. It was a moment before she said anything more. Of course a guy like Gladion would be kinda fucked up hearing about other selves from...

    Sleet's mouth pulled into a satisfied, malicious smile. Noted: this one did not want ice. "Isn't my kink," she purred, stretching out on her branch as if on a chaise longue. "Don't think we would make good loverrrs, but it would be interrrresting to trrry." She stuck her tongue out at the...

    Hunger Switch Cafe

    Laura grinned, only slightly deliriously. She'd been right? No fucking way. "Cool," she said, then just kept grinning like a dumbass for a second. "Uh, that makes me more confident that my world does have a 'mewtwo' in it. Not much information to draw strong conclusions about, and it's kinda...

    Sleet giggled continuously to herself. Fuuuuck, this one was so upset, it was beautiful. Sleet had created art. Sleet had expertise at the craft of pissing people off. And so easily this time! "All rrreptiless have cloaca, mother fuckerrr. Don't rreally carrrre that you'rrre Legendarrry, this...
