The worst thing about mental illness is you have to look after yourself a disgusting amount. I know it's the only way to actually be in a fit state to look out for others, but it still feels wrong.

Emeth: Then I'll be that friend who's the opposite kind of annoying, whispering "Do it, you know you want to..."

Judging by the Internet's definitions of introversion and extraversion, you'd think everyone's either an extreme hermit or a party animal with no in between.

Bio
A frazzled British thirtysomething cat mum with something of a tea addiction.
I like a wide range of RP genres, but have two absolute favourites: Pokemon and magical girls. (If someone manages to combine the two, I'll be VERY happy!) I post fairly regularly, but sometimes shit mental health days crop up - if that causes any delays, I'll try to resume posting ASAP.
"Ah!" Ella raised her hand to her mouth as she watched the rocks slam into her Ekans. "Smiley, are you ok?" She held out the Pokeball, calling him back and sending out Brighteye. The ghost drifted right over to her opponent, her single scarlet eye flaring with her eagerness to fight.
"Shadow Sneak!" Ella commanded. A shadow lengthened, twisting and shifting into a claw before striking at Devinco from behind. (-10CP)
"Hm? I thought Ghost types had the advantage over Psychic types," Cici replied as the graveyard came into sight. "But then again, I guess it depends on the Pokemon. Ghosts can't easily affect ones like Girafarig and Oranguru. And I imagine Psychic types are good at sensing them if they try to hide."
She reminded herself that most Ghost types tended to be more mischievous than outright malicious as she and Tommy neared the graveyard, but felt goosebumps break out all over her skin at the sound of distant, eerie laughter.
"So... we could try over there," she said, continuing onwards anyway, Dulcet flying by her side. The musician wasn't going to withdraw from the world just because of one bad experience.
@Noxx I'm writing out a battle for Amber over PM with Heckno. One of her Pokemon got poisoned, so her options are buy an antidote or go to the Pokecentre - and, seeing as said Pokemon is pretty worn out, going to the Pokecentre would be the better choice.
The battle should be posted up fairly soon.
@Heckno12 Yeesh, not well. I can just imagine how he'd have spoken to Solanna while interviewing her.
Once she'd recovered from her shock, Sophia scowled and crossed her arms, still keeping her distance from Ray and that immense psychic aura he gave off. How on earth had such a slacker developed his abilities to that level? With a pang of envy, she realised he probably hadn't. Going by his complete lack of effort, he most likely was just that powerful. And where were his manners? What gave him the idea that it was ok to casually pry into people's thoughts?
She cringed, knowing he'd probably just heard her think all that. Once again, she tried to guard her mind, but her annoyance didn't help the toll this morning had taken on her.
"It's nothing. Really," she insisted. The last thing she needed was for this stranger to know all about her failures, her insecurities, everything she tried to hide. "I'll be ok. I've just, uh... gotta go for a moment."
With that, she rushed into the Pokemon centre to get her team healed... and, before she could get to the counter, stopped in her tracks. She stared up in horror at the furious face of a certain detective she'd thought she'd gotten away from.
Solanna inwardly winced as Ray pointed out the change in her thoughts, but at least he hadn't dug any further into them. "Well, uh... There was a slight training accident earlier," she explained, although Ray was more than likely to know that wasn't the whole story. "But nobody got hurt. It's all ok now."
She looked over at Sophia in surprise as Ray mentioned the girl was a psychic. That could explain things... Was that the reason she held herself to such high standards? Before Solanna could say anything to her, though, she'd disappeared into the Pokecentre. It was already obvious there were things Sophia didn't want to talk about, and Solanna knew all too well what that was like.
Cici leaned down, petting the Eevee's soft fur. "Yeah," she said, looking up at Tommy. "You still planning on getting a Ralts?"
Even after last night's events, the idea of looking for Fairy types didn't worry her all that much. Ligeia was proof that fairies could be kind, and Tefan wasn't known for problems caused by Pokemon anyway. Still, it might be a good idea to have a Pokemon out, just in case anything happened.
"Dulcet," she said, letting out her Swablu, "this is Beta." The cotton bird flew down with a friendly chirp.
Out of all her Pokemon, Dulcet seemed like the best one to watch out for potential threats. If it was ghosts people had to be wary of, Dulcet's Normal typing would provide some protection against them, and her Flying type would allow her to fight back in case the ghosts knew other attacks.
This was also another reason to travel with Tommy. If either of them ran into trouble, the other would be around to help out.
Ella gasped as Treasure struggled to get back on her feet. It was clear she could barely fight any more. The trainer thought over the defensive and self-healing moves her Trubbish knew, but it was considered poor sport for someone of beginner rank to use them. For someone at her level, battling was about getting a feel for Pokemon's moves and sticking to the basics.
"Treasure, come back!" she called, returning the Trubbish to her Pokeball. She stood frozen, biting her lip. Who should she send out next? Brighteye wouldn't be able to do anything to a Normal type, so that just left one Pokemon - one who may not be ready for this yet.
"Uh..." Taking the Pokeball from her pocket, she pressed the button. Where Treasure had been a moment ago, Smiley appeared, glaring at his opponent. "Do you want to go next?" Ella asked. "If not... you don't have to." Still holding the Pokeball, she kept her finger over the button, preparing to return him and call off the match if he got panicked.
After studying the little Fletchling, though, Smiley turned and nodded his head.
"Ok... Use Poison Fang!" Ella commanded, watching him dart at Bidein and bite down with sharp teeth. (15CP) Maybe getting him to battle would be a way to bond with him.
