Through Dream, I Travel
Lillie made a noise that sounded halfway between a sharp cough and the noise one might make upon being punched in the gut. "W H A T ?"First time I've met any that wasn't... you know, turned into a Pokémon.

Kaz jolted in her skin, causing her to lift her head. "Wait a minute. If pokémon can be humans too... what does the word 'human' mean? Is it just some sort of title given to certain pokémon? How does that happen?"
"Nonono!" Lillie laughed awkwardly. "Humans aren't pokemon at all! We're a totally different thing! We're just one species, the one Hana and I are. I mean, people tell stories about kids waking up as Kadabra or whatever but it doesn't- Err, it's not something that's supposed to happen outside fantasy novels. I-It shouldn't happen outside fantasy novels.""Wait a minute. If pokémon can be humans too... what does the word 'human' mean? Is it just some sort of title given to certain pokémon?

Noticing that the Riolu returned, Violet approached her with the towel in hand. "Gramercy for this," she said, nodding her head. "Mayhap our introduction was hasty. Mine name is Violet, perchance may I have yours?" Violet's gaze turned to the small mudkip, and she gave a haughty chuckle as she continued, "And your... friend's, as well?"Vegeta let out a pained groan, then fell on her side. "Hrrrrrrrgh... this is... soooooo... dear god this sucks..." She looked up at the seed that fell with her, inching towards it like a worm before eating it in one gulp. As someone would expect, she choked.
"Don't... Please don't think about it too hard," Lil Goku said to Kaz as she slapped Vegeta on the back. The Mudkip swallowed the seed and shut her eyes for a moment. "Trust me. It's not worth it."
Violet eyed the white-dressed girl up and down - mostly up, to her dismay - why did her new body have to be so short? Violet cleared her throat, crossed her arms once more, and asked, "And just what did these, er, 'fantasy novels' say?" Her voice raised slightly in pitch as a her tone became almost... hopeful. Perhaps this person knew something that could help her figure out what happened to her brother after... that dark day."Nonono!" Lillie laughed awkwardly. "Humans aren't pokemon at all!

"The pleasure is all mine, Goku," she said, nodding her smile rang true for once. Something about this 'mon felt genuine, yet still kind - a far cry from the double-speak of the old nobility that she had grown up with.Lil Goku had to stop herself from laughing at how formal Violet was. And by "stop," all Goku had to do was shut her eyes for a second longer than a blink. "My name is Lil Goku. Or just Goku, I don't really care." The Riolu raised a paw, about to introduce her friend, when she stopped herself, and started folding the towel to put it away.
Vegeta, unlike Goku, laughed, having to look up at Violet. "Geez, you sound like a feathery version of some grand ball or whatever it's called! "Mine name?" "Mayhap?" "Perchance?" "May?" I didn't realize my great grandma's storybooks were still in style," the Mudkip scoffed. "I'm Vegeta, the strongest there is!"
"Yes, she's always like this," Lil Goku said, now putting away the towel Vegeta was wrapped in.
