If I ever imply France in an RP where, for example, the context for calling something "French Toast" doesn't exist, you can know that's not me.

Bio

I'm a generally chill gomboblin that can be kinda particular. I grew up with plenty of electronics and video games, mostly with games like Final Fantasy, Zelda, and StarCraft. Lots of Nintendo. Dark Cloud is pretty sick. That's a lot of variety, and I do like to play a lot of different games. I like to blend magic and technology in my writing, bringing fantasy into space and sci-fi.

Magic in space is something that I find isn't done very much. Airships and spaceships could make for some cool centerpieces. Skies of Arcadia did a fantastic job of this. Perhaps that's not in space, exactly, but it's pretty close. Some of those ships may as well be space ships.

She'd heard tales of trainers capturing Pokemon without a battle, but it had always also sounded dubious or made up. Would someone think the same if she told them this story? She picked up get PokeBall, still pretty proud of herself for charming a Pokemon into her roster. Not that she had intended it.

"Seems like you've made a friend, after all, Kaebe." It might be a struggle to train the struggle bug. Doubles combat was a thing, right? Maybe she should train them together... She considered a few ideas while she stared at her new Blipbug's ball. "Did you like giving a ride earlier? Let's get the two of you better acquainted. Ocul, say hello to your teammate." She opened the ball and let him out.

The Blipbug named Ocul emerged and took a look around. That had been an interesting experience. Not uncomfortable, but certainly strange. Ocul turned to look at Stella, before facing his new "teammate". Ah, yes, this frightening creature. Kaebe regarded the bug for a moment before turning around and laying out, offering out his tail.

"Tyrunt."

Ocul hesitated before approaching, and climbing up on Kaebe's back. The ancient Pokemon got up and started to trot around happily, with a light passenger on his back.

Stella smiled softly at the two. This would be good teamwork training, right? Sure. They can play together while she goes to the pokemart. "Alright, you two. Come along, and don't cause too much fuss."

She'd buy herself a potion, maybe two before leading her pair out to one of the routes. Running around, battling wild Pokemon inside the city to train seemed like a quick way to make people-Pokemon relations very tense.

That hasn't knocked it out. Most targets would lose consciousness to the full-body pain from that technique. The body and mind would react, convinced of a terrible wound. "You're rather tenacious. And smart enough to talk to each other." This was her rescue target, right? Pain wasn't doing it, and one seeing through her sword to realize it was only pain, and not wounds, was a serious disadvantage to her.

It would be best to stop their fight. She was losing ground to stand on and would have to up her ante, unless she could reason with these... Two? Beasts? "I'm not here to fight you, and if you can talk to each other, maybe you can understand me. I'm here to rescue you, y'know? How about you calm down, and we fight off these poachers together? I really would rather not have to get rough with you..." She sheathed her sword, slowly. Somehow, her presence felt more threatening. She did not initiate, but would wait to counter. "C'mon, now. You've got someone to go back to, haven't you?"

A crash behind her, some sound she couldn't recognize, grabbed her attention and she turned, to see a chunk of ground missing. A soft groan escaped her, she worked hard to reverse things like that...

Oh dear. Had she just sentenced the professor to some terrible fate? "I really couldn't have asked for a battery opportunity. To have a living ancient Pokemon to study is a dream come true, I'm very thankful to him. Please don't destroy him over this."

She looked over to see the little bug Pokemon, surprised to see it approaching then. "Oh, and it seems you've made a friend somehow." She looked at the Tyrunt in her lap, at least glad we was the personable sort. She had the feeling she lucked out, in that regard. Maybe because of how he was born, and what that meant for his experience growing up? Always around people, never in the wild. Of course he'd turn out like a puppy...

Speaking of a puppy, Kaebe had gotten up and was approaching the little bug, but much more slowly this time. He sniffed, and then gave the bug a lick.

"Kaebe, give the poor thing some space, come on now." She leaned forward and wrapped an arm around her excitable puppy, slowly bringing him back to her side. She then placed a PokeBall in front of the Blipbug, smiling softly, "you seem like you want to come with me? Or maybe you just want to say hi. I don't mean to be presumptuous, but you must have had a compelling reason to come out from hiding."

It was early, but Yuka's antics were refreshing. Or perhaps it was her ambiance. Whatever the case, Aiko was appreciative of her presence. The past couple of days had them in a funk without them really realizing, but they were starting to feel a little better.

"Yes, I don't suppose I'll be back for a while. Hmm.. no, I don't need anything." Aiko picked up a napkin from a table and approached Yuka, taking her hand a wiping it for her. "No, I don't sprout wings, sorry." A careful half-truth. Their shape shifting was, in fact, limited.

He leaned back on the bar, "hey, boss. You can pack my things up, if you need the room. I'm going to get out of the city for a while." There wasn't anything important to grab, and nothing embarrassing for the man to have to touch. Mostly just some clothes. He left the napkin on the counter.

"I suppose they probably leave it alone because it's a pain to get to. Wouldn't you?" Ah, but if they kept talking, they'd never go anywhere. "Since we're all in agreement, let's go." The fox moved to the door, peeking out for anything strange before waiting to open it for his companions. On to a place with, hopefully, a better pick of dreams to sup from.

When Yuka approached, Aiko welcomed her warmly. The ambient energy wafting off of her was delicious. They were too busy fighting fires last night to do much better than break even by the time folks started walking up. A brief breath of vital vapors. She retreated all too quickly, but he would just have to make do.

"She was not with me, and nowhere to be found. I can only assume she recovered after I administered the antidote and made off. Can't blame her, after last night. I wouldn't be too keen to stick around, either."

The question was given to them, of their next destination. The demi-human-shaped succubus pondered briefly, though their preference was not hard to settle. "The stout folks of Ironhold would surely be a great benefit, yes?" And they'd be less likely to sniff them out. Somehow, the River Fairy Kingdom felt like the bigger threat to Aiko's cover story. At the same time, "though, the fairies of the river would have useful magics for our cause. It would be foolish to ignore their talents. Perhaps we can make plans to go there from Ironhold." Perhaps we can send someone else there and I can dodge the ordeal.

"More than being out of place - or, perhaps, time - there's no one for him to learn from." He was an ancient Pokemon, she understood that much. Stella pet Kaebe softly on top of his nose, and belly rubs as he turned over in her lap. She giggled, "well, you're not so different from a Growlithe, or a Meowth, huh? You are a bit bigger, maybe..."

Stella looked up from her pet, looking at her questioner while her brain quickly picked up and processed that bit of audio. "Ah, yes. Professor Kapoc. I was surprised, too. I wasn't expecting a Tyrunt to pop out, but there he was."

"Kaebe, I suppose the point is that you need to respect others' space. That little Blipbug was just trying to get on peacefully, so we should leave him to his peace, right?" She looked over at the bush and spotted the bug, offering a wave before she turned her attention back to the trainer that had addressed her, "you asked if I was new? It isn't as though this is the first time I've met one, but I've never had my own. Well, until now." She still rubbed Kaebe's belly, grinning at him, "ooh, what a cute."
Stella Lumite




As Stella observed the small bug Pokemon, it became clear to her that the poor thing was not having a good time. Just in time for a voice to address her from aside. She looked over her shoulder at the woman approaching, smiling weakly, "y-yeah."

She turned back to her Pokemon and his... new friend... Taking a careful breath before, "Kaebe."

"Tyrunt."

"Did you accost this poor thing? Look, it's trembling." She sighed and carefully scooped the bug into her hands. She held a hand over it to protect it from the sky, and quickly found a bush to deposit the poor creature into. "Sorry about that, darling. Go on, now, we won't-"

She was interrupted by a grunting "runt runt runt runt" as Kaebe shoved his nose into the bush.

Stella sighed heavily and rubbed her face. This guy probably weighed... Half her weight? She had to strategize. With Meowth, you could push on their wishers to manipulate them a little. Kaebe didn't have sensitive antennae or wiskers, though... Maybe she'd just try commands first? "Kaebe."

"Tyrunt?" He turned to face her, leaves on his nose.

The trainer sighed as she looked at him, smiling just a bit. That was cute. But! "Cm'ere." She had a seat on the grass and motioned him over, grunting a little as her suspicions about his weight were confirmed. "You can't just go bother whoever you want, sweety. You're really big and scary to that little guy, right? You've got big teeth and your mouth is huge, you could swallow him whole! Did you take him from his bush in the first place?"
Stella Lumite


The park was a good idea. There were plenty of ways Kaebe could let out some of that bitey energy. There were some Meowth around, and some birds squabbling. She considered approaching one of the Meowth, but instead caught sight of that buffoon from the lab, battling a Riolu. "Well, that's quite the find you've found there."

Kaebe looked briefly at the battle but lost interest quickly. This world felt so strange to him, like something was out of place. That did, however, make exploring all the more exciting! He climbed around Stella and wandered away a bit, and Stella followed after him, half-watching the battle but more interested in what Kaebe was doing. He sniffed around and ran up to the Meowth, but they hissed and chased him away. The birds banded together against him, and the Rattata just fled.

Stella frowned. Was he trying to make friends? Not very successfully, he was kind of intimidating. She watched him run around a little more, and for distracted when she heard a PokeBall being thrown. She looked over to at the Riolu disappear into a PokeBall, and when she turned back around,

"Runt~"

The academic looked down to see Kaebe standing in front of her, his tail wagging slowly like a dog while he presented her with a Blipbug on his nose!

"Whu-" she took a step back, surprised, "Kaebe, have you found a friend? Hey there, little guy. Hope my Tyrunt didn't scare you... Say, you look smart. He eats raw meat, right? I don't have a lot of information on him, but that would be my guess."

They awoke and the sun was still low. Now this was strange. Nabarra had gone, as well... Hopefully, she had overcome the poison and was feeling better. Maybe it was best to avoid the place where her face had been revealed. At any rate, there was no dark elf here in their arms. They glared at the window before noting they were alone in the room. No matter.

Aiko rose slowly, reaching out with a bit of shadow to draw the curtains tighter. "Gnneh. Too early... No one's sleeping in today, though. Hmph... So many nightmares, too." It was because war had suddenly broke across the land, and here they were at one center of the conflict. The fighting wasn't here, but the occupation of the city has all but been declared. That declaration still weighed on the minds of Roshmi.

After freshening up a bit, Aiko decided it was time to rise and meet with their new companions. A male fox demon descended the stairs and found said companions, though a new addition have them pause. There was something about him that disagreed, but Aiko couldn't say what. They had to stifle a yawn as they approached, tail swishing softly as they did, "gmorning..." They fought to close their jaw against the yawn, but to no avail. "Gleh. Did our friend come down? She wasn't with me this morning." Their attention turned to Yuka and friend, "morning, stranger." Aiko glanced between Yuka and Xavier, succubus senses tingling, "had a good night?" They looked back at Yuka, "I see you didn't need my reward."

Granted, Yuka did have a certain... ambiance to her.
