Brisa's tail rose at Starr's odd praise, but she was still too flustered by the whole event to muster much of a response. "Uh, how d'you do, Lexx?" she managed. Luz grinned and waved. "Hey, Lexx. Reckon he'll come out as a torracat too, or somethin' else?" There was a deep feeling of...

That was as good as an invitation for company. Well... darn! Brisa was about to reply with a positive response when Starr drew her attention back to Luz's energetic stirring. "Oh, don't worry about Luz," she said. "It does this damn near any time I'm interactin' with people. In fact–" But she...

Brisa made a begrudging face of agreement. People were more chill here. Hell, they celebrated her feats of combat in the colosseum. "This ain't the first time you've said the team likes me," she mused. "Still can't say it feels true to me. But maybe I'm lookin' at it with the sun in my eyes and...

"I want to have a good time, I just can't help but think I'm gonna make an ass of myself." Brisa bent down and picked up Luz to hold it close. In her paws, the stone calmed a little, still vibrating intensely. "The last time I attended a fancy shindig, I offended the mayor's boy somehow and...

Luz bounced agitatedly at Brisa's foot at the suggestion. Brisa looked up from her book and closed it as she realised who'd arrived. What did you say to someone you recently saved from a fatal encounter with someone from her past whom you knew nothing about? With whom you'd evolved in that same...

<><><><><><> It had taken a few weeks, but the festival was finally upon them. The festival that had originally been intended specifically to celebrate the safe return of Brisa and Starr from the Reverse World. Brisa felt like she was back in the pit. Luz, her ultra stone, nudged her hindpaw...

"Fightin' is how we come to grow and understand each other," said Brisa, plainly. "Lookin' forward to it." She gave Dave a nod, and flicked her tail in a wave goodbye. Luz followed her out, bouncing a little as it rolled beside her.

"Alright, Dave." Brisa looked over 'Mia' again. She clearly wasn't an ordinary scyther, and she'd been 'a lot bigger' in Dave's homeworld. He'd said something on their first day about... humans with pokémon genes. She'd have to ask about that later. 'Mia' had mentioned fighting almost...

Brisa watched the interaction between the two with apprehension. There was context she was missing, and this was the wrong time to ask after it. And she wasn't sure what to try with 'Mia'. The way she talked, so direct and unmannered... it was a little like talking to an Escarpa Clan...

The fucking rocks ate your fucking memories and made a goddamn shadow-fascimile of whatever the fuck they found in there. Fucking great. Fucking brilliant! "Looks like you weren't on the money with yer suppositions about them not gettin' in our memories," she said, quietly. Her voice wasn't...

Brisa crouched low, her eyes fixed on the transforming rock. Whatever was happening, could happen to Luz. She had to watch carefully. "Dave," she murmured, "is this as entirely remarkable to you as it is to me?" Luz came to rest by her forepaw and twitched erratically.

"Not as such. Just fleein' for our lives." It wouldn't help Dave to talk in detail about that experience. Everyone was on edge enough as it was. Hell, half the posse were in total denial about how bad the situation was, and Brisa didn't intend to push him on that front. "I got that fancy...

"Sure have. I like checkin' on folks when they're in recovery. Gives me a quiet moment to read, which is somethin' I've been missin', and I think it does 'em good to see a familiar face first thing after wakin' up from the kinda fights we have." She stretched out. She looked good and grown up...

"Howdy, Dave," said Brisa, sliding her book back into her satchel. "You were hit pretty hard back there. Everythin' feel more or less like you're more alive than dead?" She blinked, then grinned, and gestured to herself vaguely. "D'you like the new body? This is what I'm used to lookin' like...

Brisa looked around, breathing deeply. Curio was safe. Astrid was okay. Owen was in one piece. Everyone else... also fine. Her priorities remained Starr and Dave, then. Dave was unconscious by her forepaws, Starr was... "Starr? Starr, are you with us?" The human didn't reply. She stared at...

Reviewed the Anything Goes EC. 100w. 5x reviews for LC, 100w or more per chapter. Specs for First Ascent later I guess.

Chapter 33 "Chapter 34" Chapter 34 Chapter 35 Chapter 36

I had a lovely time reading this with the rest of the folks who made it to the voicechat. I broke at a few points and had to laugh while reading, props to the authors who managed that. I wasn't early enough for the first few pieces, but I've since read and enjoyed them, and in particular I have...

Brisa's brain was shunting options left and right as she fled that thing alongside Potluck with Starr in tow. She heard Bahamut bark an undirected order. Dave? Dave. Goddamnit Dave you picked a fine hour to get Shadowed. Her eyes flashed with radiance, and she seized both the poochyena and his...
