    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Oh thank the fucking stars she didn't have to listen to a conversation about that, or even leave. Gods. What the fuck was this about ressurection, though? "Thunder. Goddamn. He's...? I dunno how I feel 'bout that." Brisa knew that someone's essence could travel between worlds since she was...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Brisa said nothing. She'd never pressed Dave on that and after learning as much as she had from Jesse's mental leaking (and seeing how desperate Dave was to not discuss it) she wasn't about to start. She turned intently to her drink and made herself fascinated by the tiny bubbles along...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Brisa wasn't sure what to make of Dave's apparent hope that Maple might die, or his strange chagrin about finding a possible way to save Arceus, but it could only be a good thing if Cibus wasn't about to lose one of its mightiest defenders. "Hope it works. My world ain't so lucky t'have...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Brisa hadn't seen that much of Shadow but it sure seemed like he just said the shit Dave was worried about under layers of rationalisation. Thing is, Shadow wasn't any more stupid than Dave was. Just a hell of a lot more scared. And he was scared now, of excess deaths. "What idea? Dave, what...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Brisa smirked humourlessly. "Whaddaya think I'm here fer? This world's creator told me to slow down and Luz threatened to physically restrain me if I tried doin' one more productive thing. So drinks it is." She could think of plenty more to do. It wasn't as if her drill was perfect, or she'd...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    She took the nearest available seat—by Dave's shadow—and received her drink with gratitude. "What ain't I been up to." Brisa considered what was worth mentioning or not. May as well tell him the gist, some of the most notable details. If he was curious, he'd ask for more. Sounded better than...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Gods, they had so little time left. Fuck, she needed a drink so bad, she'd needed a drink all the damn time since the bubble went up and she'd barely touched the stuff and please let her have earned it. As she entered the Cauldron, she saw a friend of hers evidently experiencing similar...

    Brisa Turn 2 The team—my friends—are at their best when I give them cover. I'll lend Cabot a paw as he makes his approach! Brisa used Helping Hand! There's no way I'd let Starr's best efforts go to waste! I'll give her the boost she needs to really lay on the hurt! Brisa used Helping Hand! I...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    It was nice to see someone both strong and idealistic, and yet happy. Cabot didn't always have it right, but . . . it was nice to think a mon could be all those things. "You know me, Cabot," said Brisa, some cheer returning to her tired voice. "I'll take on anyone. Who're y'thinkin' of?"

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa worked through her own lunch as Cabot spoke, barely tasting it despite how good it was. (Cibus had the best food, goddamn.) At least Cabot understood why mindreading would bother her, it'd be a worry if he didn't. And what he was saying was . . . reasonable. "...Y'know, Cabot, it's kinda...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    Brisa squared up for the showdown that had occupied damn near every waking moment since they'd returned to Destiny Village from the fight at the lab. She wasn't alone, she reminded herself. She had the team, and she'd done everything she possibly could to prepare them, and herself, for this...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa nodded as Cabot yarned on in response. Stars, but the lad was naive, wasn't he? It was honestly a nice change of pace from some of the attitudes on the posse. Still, mind-reading as a 'convenient solution' for the state military? Good fucking gods. "Luz is encouragin' 'cause she don't...

    ....Alright, here she went. "Delphox Jesse Stranger was . . . is . . . my father. He used to read my mind all the damn time t'check if I had my shit t'gether.

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa nodded along as Cabot explained what the team had more or less fully covered by now. Some of the techniques he described, she was already using to some extent, or close enough. She'd learned to talk about her emotions without being consumed by them, to a point. Maybe Cabot's feelings just...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa listened closely. Interesting that Owen had turned Cabot down—though she was sure the charmeleon had his reasons. This wasn't a solution, though... Just a preamble. What had Cabot learned? "Can't say I've been keen t'summon my shadow, either," she admitted. "Meetin' mine was disturbin'...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Ah, excellent. Time to have a chinwag. "Howdy, Cabot. Been busy, yeah." Judging by the kid's appearance, he was in perfect fighting nick as always. She'd expected that. The cranidos was nothing if not diligent (and idealistic). They wouldn't need to discuss the basics. Brisa was much more...

    Threadmarks: R9 – Shadows and Shades – Brisa & Cabot

    Another mealtime, another opportunity to touch base with a teammate. Brisa went to the cafeteria counter and bought herself some paw food, just in case Cabot declined and she left for training elsewhere, eating on the move... Hopefully he was available. Flexible and adaptive scheduling meant...

    Destiny Colosseum ~ Stands

    "Sure y'would've, partner!" Luz agreed, laughing as Puddle dropped off and followed Vix away. "Seeya round, y'all," called Brisa, smiling unexpectedly. Brisa gave a wave to her departing friends. How strange to have so many, after so long assuming it was impossible. If they were on Cibus much...
