“Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine. No fun.” Coco stomped off to find someone better to play with.

“I know! Fewer people to play with.” Momma was alive, so it didn’t really matter that some other things were dead. She was a predator in a world of prey, after all. “Play? It’s fun. Will make you feel better.”

Coco paused. Now isn't the time for play? Now is always the time for play! Still, she didn't know how to get the plant to play without biting it. Biting things is almost always the answer, but Momma says not to bite strangers. Plants also taste gross. Usually. "What happened?" she asked. Coco...

Coco stomped her feet. This was unfair! “Why won’t you play with me?”

You're supposed to run when chased! Or at least chase back! Coco slowed down and let out a small roar to make sure that the other pokemon knew it was playtime.

Lies. They were sad. Playing makes people not sad. They wanted to play. Chase is a good game to play. Coco started running after her playmate, jaws open and blood red teeth exposed.

Coco wandered down the path. Momma was big now. She didn't need as much protecting. After a very enthusiastic hug and inspection she'd rushed on to see other things. Coco understood that. She wanted to be helpful to Momma. Coco was also bored. She came across something that she recognized...

"You too! And don't worry, it'll get worked out." Cuicatl might have grunted something. Right. Now she needed to deal with a twin / self / sister that was dealing with overwhelming loss for a second time. Lovely. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Yeah, I was. She’s my second Pokémon. I was there when she hatched so, yeah.”

"Oh, that's Coco! Or Mitzcocotonaz. Means "she will dismember you." Val could maybe just hear Cuicatl mumble 'fucking metal.' "She's a tyrunt. Pretty, right? I assume that she's very pretty."

"Maybe? I was psychic before so I'd kind of seen some stuff. Kind of. I, uh, couldn't actually get much out of it since I didn't really know what stuff was supposed to look like. But hopefully hydreigon don't have that problem? Al--" Shit, already committed. "A hydreigon friend of ours didn't...

Nate really reminded Val of Kekoa, but saying that would have required explaining Kekoa and then that might make Cuicatl feel worse for some reason or another. "Couldn't see before. Not a whole lot different. But being really short was weird. I was pretty short like, um, actually I'm not sure...

"I was human, yeah. Ate some berries there. Always a little bit off compared to maize and what not. Wouldn't call them bad, but they were best used sparingly. Or acclimated to. There were a few of them I could eat whole... How has being a pokemon been for you? I don't think we've talked about that."

"Uh... ribbons, no. Sorry. We were out looking for roseli berries. Didn't think much of them at home, but now they taste great! Can't get enough." Cuicatl stayed silent. At some point Val was going to need to pull away and deal with that, but not yet. She'd need some time to process things...

"I figure it'll work out. Always has. Remember the lugia thing? Yeah, should've died. But we got out! It's fine. At this point I've just stopped worrying about it. And it's a little weird having a roommate I share a torso with, but we mostly get along since we come from the same person and all."...

"Not a physical problem, no. Cuicatl's just Having A Mood right now." She huffed on the ground. "But, uh, how have you been?"

“Mom?” “Fine. We’re fine. Just give me a sec. You can, um, play with your new friend.” “Okay...” Coco pounced on Rocky. Val could deal with that later. She lowered her head to be nearer to Cuicatl’s. “I know it’s not what you wanted but—“ “He’s dead.” “I know—“ Cuicatl snarled and Val...

The rock began to shift. Probably. Val had no idea since she couldn’t see it. Whatever-it-was let out a long yawn and shook itself off. Please be him. Or at least Alice. Cuicatl would be devestated if. “Hi, Mom,” it said. She said. “Who do you need me to bite?” Coco. Great. Fuck. Cuicatl was...

“Yup! It’s just in our bag. Let me get it for a second...” Valentina reached in and pulled it out with her teeth. It twitched in her mouth. Hard. A tooth might have gotten loose, which wasn’t a huge deal since zwelious regrew them all the time but it still hurt. She spat it out. Gently, of...

“More or less,” Cuicatl grumbled. At least she was talking. Thankfully Vix had improved her mood enough for this. “Yeah! We get split in half. It was weird. You should try it sometime.”
