9th [Action]

[ So Salvation has come and gone, she's had her time with her sister, things have moved on - but Melaka, who has gotten in the habit of checking Union's TM slot now and again after she realized that as a Ranger / as a trainer she gets free access to it... found a new one she didn't recognize there. She taught it to one of hers (specifically, she taught it to her creepy Drowzee, Guide) and she went around experimenting with this new Secret Power. And lo and behold, as she did, she found that it could make pocket spaces in rocks. And trees.

Secret Bases.

Not sure what to make of this, Melaka now is going around the city seeing if she can figure out the rules for it (it does seem she can only make one at a time) and seeing if she can find some one with a particularly cool interior. But the result is that Melaka and an collection of Pokémon (her old tried and true Toxicroak, Lurks, as well as a somewhat anxious looking Druddigon and the ever floating Guide) are testing out new locations!

Is it in this tree next to your house? This rock on the corner? She'll try out of the city eventually too, but for right now, this is kind of fun. So if you saw her appearing into a hole in a tree or something after the Drowzee's eyes flashed, that's why.

Have at ]

[ What he's totally legit. You just happen to look like you have the smell of nice dreams! Actually, speaking of smells, that tapir-nose is going to sniff over towards her, wiggling. Throbbing, one might even say.

But Melaka, glancing over her shoulder- oh, Guide. She'll take this moment to gran hold of his nose and yank him back down to ground level ]

Save that for when we're asleep! Savior's breastplate.

[ Rood. Rood, she smells delicious tho! Guide practically whines, but then his eyes glow as he looks up at Melaka despite his somewhat busted nose ]

[victimlessdetails]

I'm just...not going to ask. There's some things even I don't want to know.

[ As Guide gets up, no longer floating and looking put out, Melaka hits him in the middle of the forehead one more time before turning to Isabela and- ] He eats dreams.

[victimlessdetails]

I am so happy to hear that.

Well, thanks anyway, Pokéguy, but I'm saving mine for when my friend's Spiritomb inevitably goes nuts and starts chomping on peoples' minds.

[makeitquick]

Dosn't sound like a great friend.

[ He can Guide, they have an accord. But something eating people's minds? That's not good ]

[victimlessdetails]

No, my friend's fantastic, thank you very much. She's just made some mistakes in her relationships.

With Pokémon, I mean, her girlfriend's alright too.

[makeitquick]

Oh. Well, bummer on her? Or good for her, I guess. Better to be good on humans, suppose.

[victimlessdetails]

I had that Spiritomb after me specifically once. Went out and Bonded a Fairy-type for that specific reason.

[makeitquick]

That what they're weak against?

[ Never encountered a Spiritomb before. Doesn't know what hey look like, even ] Kinda sucks that's a friend.

[victimlessdetails]

Only thing they're normally weak against. It's an unfortunate typing to try and fight. Honestly, I think that's why Merrill's done as well as she has keeping it under control.

[makeitquick]

She's fairy?

[victimlessdetails]

It would be disrespectful and hypocritical to make a joke about that, so

Yes, she is extremely fairy, ask Yuuna.

[makeitquick]

[ Yuuna, what's she got to do with anything? ... but okay ]

Huh, cool. Never thought I'd get on much with 'em, but it's been going better than I thought.
