That was better. If Rocky and Nate couldn't resolve their dilemma, at least the infernape had the other familiars he could go looking for. And just maybe...he'd have given Taz more friends and family to replace him. It made him sad, but that's just how it had to be. Ben returned Rocky's smile...

Ben nodded and got to his feet, stretching out and dipping his body low as he tilted his head back. A gesture for Nate to climb on if he so wished. "Hey...if you do meet a little Eien or a zorua named Taz, can you be her friend for me, Rocky? She...was my companion here, and I don't think we...

The time for relaxing was over, Ben realised with a grimace. He remembered when he got like this. Except, at least... "I get it," Ben said gently, "I get it, I really do." He looked up, hoping it would help him keep a grip on his emotions. This conversation felt way too nostalgic, and now he...

"Yeah, it's a bit different for us," Ben admitted. "We knew we couldn't stay because our worlds needed us and we missed our friends and family. Diyem also couldn't maintain our bodies here and stuff, I mean, I'm impressed he managed to restore all our powers and stuff." Then he frowned, looking...

The former hoimon said a lot of things that confused Ben, but he thought he got the gist. He could never understand what it would be like to change species completely and then turn back without remembering, but he could understand the logic behind interdimensional threats and friends alike. He...

You're a hero! Ben couldn't help the small grin that made it to his face. He...was a hero, wasn't he? But why did that make him sad? "When I start to remember..." his expression fell into a frown. "I'd be remembering all the friends I left behind, all the folks I'll never get to see again...

"We almost had someone's shadow go super rogue or something," Ben tried to recall. "Kinda complicated, actually. But yeah, the whole 'faerie coming into existence' thing was because we discovered Xerneas and some things happened which resulted in the type being born. I don't fully understand how...

"Oh, it was a lot." Ben said without shame. "I lashed out at my teammates several times over it, thought I was alone, nobody understood how overwhelming it all was to me, blah blah, blah. But...then I realised something." He looked down at Marshtomp. Something told Ben that he hadn't come out...

Ben's smile was wry as he tried to think of a bunch of hoomans looking like infernapes. Did they have tails? He could barely remember. "He didn't do too much fighting, he was more in the back, helping us deal more damage with his support," it was all vague. It all felt like several lifetimes...

Ben blinked as he heard words that weren't familiar to him at all. Carrs? Compewters? Hoomans were weird. Pokemon that didn't make cities or run the world? Crazier. He couldn't even begin to understand them. Starr, Nate, Angelo... "It does sound crazy," Ben agreed. "I can barely imagine it...

"It's not, actually," Ben answered, feeling quiet relief at the subject change. "My world is...perfectly normal compared to Cibus. The legends that live around everyone else here are myths, the powers are unheard of, and world ending threats? Nothing. My home has none of that. That faerie type—"...

"Yeah. I was hoping I could train with Aria again, the lucario? She taught me how to handle my powers here and use them super well in battle!" The arcanine then frowned. "But...I think she's just taking this time to relax," then he smiled, "Which is cool, I hope she's doing alright—" He cleared...

"It's...complicated, Blacklight stuff," Ben tried to explain. Come to think of it, he never asked Mergo why he'd evolved into gardevoir when he clearly wanted to be a gallade. Then he grimaced as he tried to think of an answer to Rocky's question. "Uh...yeah. Taz took the form of a zorua for...

"Right, relax first then!" Ben grinned in return and settled himself in the sand, purposefully near Nate. "Favourite memories, huh...?" he said with a hum. Something good, something he found funny. The arcanine's eyes lit up. "When I first met Reshiram, it was with Mergo, the gardevoir slash...

"Hah, you bet!" Ben replied with a grin. "I can go real fast! You can join if you'd like, I'll even offer a ride for your friend there! ...Not sure if I caught his name." Something about the marshtomp told him he wanted to be left alone, but it wouldn't hurt to try. He used to be in the same...

Ben chuckled uneasily. "Woah there," he said. "Calm down. Talk any faster and you might just take off or something." The arcanine scanned the marshtomp again. Rocky was so unlike his parent/host, but surely he was similar deep down? He was reminded of a particular gardevoir. "I can go for runs...

Faster. He needed to get faster! Ben breathed in, eyes shut as his feet tracked through the sand. He'd been training, spending his time preparing for the upcoming fight. His mentor, Aria, was mostly relaxing during her stay here, so he took it upon himself to get used to his Blacklight body...
