“Aw, thanks, ki— no, Owen. Just Owen.” She leaned in for a quick hug before she left.

“Don’t worry, you won’t. Not yet.” Wow, Owen’s head was warm — he was like a walking hot water bottle. “I’ll probably be in a coffin before you anyway.”

“Okay then, old man.” Curio patted his head.

"Nah, I totally get that. There's a part of me that does wanna fight sometimes." Curio clenched her fist. "But whenever that part comes up, I also think about what happened in the past when that became my lifestyle for a bit. And I really, really hated it. So I dunno if it'll be my battle...

"Yeah, and that's what scares me." She clutched her body. "Whatever I locked away, and all that. Sometimes, when I'm alone, I think about myself, I look deep into myself, and sometimes, I don't like what I see. It's like a voice in my head that tells me everything is pointless and that I should...

"I mean, whatever works for you," Curio said with a shrug. "Oh, Bahamut's now the team therapist, I guess. Well, it seems like he lightened up a bit." She laughed at her own joke. Dammit, why wouldn't she stop with the puns? "I'm okay though." Curio sighed. "No, really, I am, but it was rough...

Curio didn't say anything as Owen sifted through his thoughts. He took it a lot better than she expected, but he still seemed a little confused at what happened, especially with that business surrounding the shadow. "I guess it's just... just you protecting yourself in a way. Does that check...

“I think I know that these shadows are your worst sides, or the other sides of yourself that you’ve tried to hide, but I didn’t know they could just pop out of thin air like that, y’know. But whatever you went through, it sounds like heavy shit.”

She shrugged. "Maybe I might've had more experience grasping objects and all that stuff since we were taught how to do it early on. But yeah, I guess I don't have much trouble here. I mean, I doubt the Pokemon here have any trouble at all if they build buildings and stuff." "So... is he like a...

Curio was glad to see Owen get more cheerful as the conversation went on. "Yeah, well I do sculpt." She flexed her nubby Riolu digits. "Back home, I just took all sorts of trash and stuck them together with a hot glue gun. You don't really have good control as a Lucario, so I'd probably have...

That image of Owen and the shadow Charizard sitting next to each other struck Curio as cute, but that was overtaken by a bit of sadness as she realised how exhausted Owen was. "Pfft, eat me, of course that makes sense." Curio relaxed, sitting opposite Owen. She still had that Charizard on her...

“Well, air that happens to look like a Charizard with a lightbulb in its head. Like those clouds you see that kind of look like somethin’ else.” She was shocked that exchange broke Owen, of all things. “I’ll say. That was really intense, and considering what you went through and, well, the...

“No problem, I can’t understand what he’s saying anyway. I guess he’s like that devil on your shoulder, except everyone can see it.”

"Do you wanna talk about it?" Curio sighed, leaning against one of the wooden pillars. "I've dealt with Cynthian, I've dealt with Brisa. I've kind of become a shadow therapist at this point. Maybe I could make money off of it. But you could use a bit of R and R."

Curio gasped at the living flashlight that was the shadow Charizard. She entered a battle stance, prepared for another fight, until she came to her senses. "Arceus on a flaming bicycle, you scared me." She relaxed, letting out a sigh of relief. "How're you holdin' up, Owen? I guess we haven't...

Curio wandered around for a bit to gather her thoughts after her meeting with Brisa. Sure, it was lovely seeing her, and it was nice to get some closure on that incident before, but it left her feeling... hollow, for whatever reason. Jesse's thoughts about Brisa still echoed in her mind, and how...

"Oh no, they totally do. You're in games, movies, they've even made plushies of you. Hmm, I wonder, you could probably sue if it's damaging to your character or whatever, though don't quote me on that, I'm no lawyer. I don't even know if Pokemon can sue, so..."

Curio was totally here the whole time while this was going on. Yessiree. After watching everyone else's reactions to Diyem's reveal back there, she felt for Cynthian and regretted not checking up on him, but she didn't know if she'd do much to convince him about Dark Matter. After watching the...

Curio woke up with a headache. Of course, she got royally plastered yesterday. The only solution? Hair of the dog, or Lucario, as it were. Besides, she needed to do more than just wallow in bed, still feeling the effects of what happened a couple of days ago and feeling even worse for sitting...
