    "Is it really such a bad thing," Seyka mused. "After all, aren't heroes that way because they overcome adversity?" "Oops, that's a bit cynical," the Skarmory said after a moment. "But hey, if I was a traitor, then it would just help make everyone better, don't you think?" "Mm, let's not...

    Seyka smiled. "Wow, thanks! I know I might be asking for a bit much, but you know-" "This is all a lot of fun. It's hard to believe everyone just... talks to me." The Skarmory laughed. "That aside, I guess I should go. But before that, any tips for me? You know, stuff you won't tell anyone...

    “That was exciting,” Seyka said, staring at the door the pair had left from. “Anyway, I guess none of us are traitors- yet.” The Skarmory looked at Karat. “If you happen to meet any traitors though, can I ask something?” He looked bashful. “It’s a bit selfish, but can you tell them it’s okay if...

    "If you're in the dark like us, then what are you?" Seyka asked. "A rook?" "Don't pokemon argue that pawns are the most important piece anyway? I've never really understood chess, but you know." "Anyway," the Skarmory continued, "If Diyem wanted to do evil things, why bother picking a world...

    Seyka watched the exchange, his expression blank. "Mm, I suppose he does have a point, you never know right?" The Skarmory turned to Karat. "Plus, there's always plausible deniability in groups. What if-" Seyka gestured at Starr and Brisa, "-they were both traitors covering for each other...

    Seyka shook his head. “He purports not to like the one similar to himself, but won’t say why.” The Skarmory paused. “Ah, I never asked about that though.”

    "Mmm, I suppose I am a parasite in one way or another," Seyka said, looking up as more pokemon entered the room. "We're here," the Skarmory said in response to Brisa. "Don't mind me if you're here to talk to him." He looked at Karat. "We were just talking." Ah, I don't know anyone's names.

    "Either way, it's an indictment of this world's luck," Seyka said. "He just happened to get that power, and just happened to come to this place in specific. Or what? Someone gave it to him?" The Skarmory thought about it. "Let's see- the big one was Arceus right? What if he gave Giovanni that...

    "Hm, if you say so," Seyka said blithely, "So why do you think he chose to look like that? Because he hates you?" The Skarmory sighed. "If I could choose to look like anything I wanted, I think I'd be the same. Maybe I'd make my feathers a bit more colorful, kind of like my dad." "Anyway, you...

    "I'd hope so, but it's not like I can tell if that's the case," the Skarmory said. "More to the point," Seyka continued, "The other one that's like you, Giovanni I think? He's doing what he wants to do, so I can't blame him for that. If you hate him, then that's what you feel. I suppose I'll...

    "If that's what you want to do," Seyka replied, ruffling his wings. "Life is about the present and conscious choice. If it's something you choose to do, then I can't really complain." "I suppose I might be upset a bit, but it's not like I would hate you for it. I don't hate anyone, because I...

    "If you betrayed someone in the past, you're not doing it now," Seyka explained, frowning. "So you can't really be a traitor right now, even if you are." "Besides, you can always stop, and that's why it's okay," the Skarmory said, nodding to himself. "Traitor is a subjective measure anyway."

    "Everyone is talking about traitors or whatever," Seyka said. "I thought it would be fun so I came here. I guess the rest of the team isn't interested, so you get me! Er, sorry if that's not what you want." The Skarmory leaned in. "So uh, are you a traitor? I mean, it's okay if you are."

    "Uh, I was hoping you would answer that." Seyka poked his head around the edge of the inner door, the Skarmory smiling slightly at Karat. "Hi. We don't know each other, and we don't need to." He walked in the cell proper. "How's jail?"
