@diamonddomain liked for a starter!

It had been a long couple of days in this strange new place! Elminster had met people and creatures of all shapes, sizes, backgrounds, and personalities. He was no stranger to the surreal- after all, nothing widens one's perspectives more than stepping out of your own plane of existence and wandering others like one would travel to other countries- but this one had been exceptionally taxing! It was as if this was not just a place for different creatures to come together, but also people from different times, different realms of existence entirely... to say that it was bizarre would be putting things mildly. Yet as he walked the bustling streets en route back to the room that seemed to belong to him, he couldn't help but continue to study each person and thing that he walked past. He had taken for granted just how much he missed the hustle and bustle of crowded cities like Waterdeep and Baldur's Gate, the many performers looking to make a touch of gold, peddlers with their goods, children making merry with the most common household items. But things were different here! People were different. El couldn't help but stroke his long white beard in contemplation. In making a realm where all people are unique, he thought to himself, It is as if the mundanity of society is in its very lack of mundanity! Curiouser and curiouser...

His thoughts were temporarily paused as he came across someone else that caught his eye- someone that looked even more extraordinary than those he'd seen before! Resplendent gems and shards reflected on this creature like an approachable golem, yet it was a moving, living thing! El tried to approach, peering down with an inquisitive (if not slightly overbearing) look. "How peculiar..."

◓ "Huh? What's wrong, Sprigatito?" There was a lot wrong. They were in an unfamiliar city that didn't seem to have any Pokémon at all. That much they had accepted and her partner had finally calmed down, but she was hissing at a rock now? Wait, that wasn't a normal rock, was it?

"It couldn't be. That's not a Pokémon, is it? I thought there weren't any in this city..." Maybe it was a monster that wasn't a Pokémon? If she'd had her Rotom Phone, she could have checked on her Pokédex app.

[nobully]

Huh, wait a minute.

Didn't he know this guy girl rock pokémon? Wang Yi stops to rub his eyes and squint. The next second he's slipping through the crowds and running to pick his ex-kidnapping victim up and spin her in a circle.

"Diancie!"

"When'd you get back? You're still as pink as last time, heh!"

"Oh! You're so pretty!" Reena couldn't help but stare with intrigue. She's never quite seen a fellow mon like this before! "What's someone like you doing all the way out here?"

[lightblume]

"I've been meaning to ask you, Diancie…" Tsuru trails off for a moment, setting her teacup in its saucer as she turns her attention to inspect the crystals lining the other's head until her eyes fall on the jewel at its center. "You are royalty, aren't you? So should I be addressing you as Lady Diancie?" Now is as good a time as any to set the standard, seeing as she's gone out of her way to invite the princess to her home.

"I'd hate to be impolite, seeing as you must be of higher status than I am. Not that it matters here, mind you, but I do respect titles at least." And she respected Diancie enough to do her the courtesy.

it is not that he means to stare, per se, but the little creature has piqued his interest. rather than immediately approach, Gale took it as a type of...challenge, to see if he might deduce what it was. there were no shortage of magical beings back home, that was for sure, and he considered his own brain a veritable treasure trove of information about them, but this one remained a mystery. perhaps it was in everyone's best interest that his staring had alerted them of his presence, forcing him to start a conversation.

"Hello," he waves a little, "Deepest apologies for the staring-- I see now that it must come across as rude, indeed. It's just that I've never seen someone quite like you before."

[drunkelreporter]

He'd seen some really weird things, most of which had been after Meryl had dragged them into following Vash the Stampede, but honestly this takes the cake. There's a tiny little frilly pink thing on a rock he's apparently sharing living space with and it talks. And floats. Did he mention it floats?

Roberto blinks, green gaze utterly blank, and reaches into his coat pocket for his flask. A significant portion of the contents is summarily dumped into the cup of coffee he'd been holding when he'd heard a voice and looked down.

He takes a drink.

"I'm definitely not drunk enough for this place."

❝ Now, are you sure you aren't related to someone named Paimon? No long lost relative or something like that? ❞ spoken in jest, the similarities, in some degree, were an entertaining enough thought. between the size, ability to speak with humans, and even floating, it was interesting enough. to which it seemed this one had exhausted the limitation, now perched atop his shoulder as he strolls along, not exactly bothered in thanks to klee. ❝ Just playing around, of course. Teyvat has creatures similar, but you aren't quite alike in that regard. ❞

"My Melo found...THIS!" She held up a random rock, proudly. It wasn't a terrible rock, but it was rather lumpy. At least it wasn't a dirt clod or something. "...It's a pretty good gem right?" Someone teach this girl geology. Please.

[isolaradiale]

Without prior reserve reapplying for Diancie from Pokemon. Everything is in the same place as before (app under links or /app)!

Welcome back to scenic Isola Radiale, Diancie!

You’ll be staying in APARTMENT 306.

You’ll retain everything you had during your previous stay.

Enjoy your stay!

"Oh, my rotom phone has all sorts of cool apps on it! But I like the pokedex a lot, it has all sorts of information about pokemon." Mirai was happily showing off his phone, tapping away and pulling up information about pokemon from back home. "I've learned a lot with it. Pokemon in Paldea could be a little different from ones I remembered, so it helped me figure things out..."

[ellysiland]

let's hope that was the case, that the friend could really obtain that wish and complete their adventure. not many people could go along and actually complete a dream without something bad happening; to them or otherwise. ❝ oh?? ❞ wait, diancie was a princess?? of a kind?? pokemon had royalty?? should L.L. bow or something?? what was the correct way to treat royal people or pokemon??

❝ how does … would you still consider yourself royal even in a new world?? uhm, sorry if that seemed rude. i'm still trying to wrap my head around all of this. royal pokemon, huh … how does that work?? you said you were the only diancie so how does the line of succession work?? ❞ that honestly was a good question though; how did royal pokemon work??

"Oh I'm sure they are! I'm sure that young boy's energy and all his supportive friends wouldn't let anything stop them. As for me well...") It was a bit of a different situation. One that didn't really have any way of being brought around the bush.

("I had another job that needed attending to. Subjects that need guidance. It may not seem like it by what you may know but I'm a princess of my own domain. Although not here of course, considering we're all far away from home.")

“Doodle!”

Send “Doodle!” and I will draw our muses together as my muse would draw them!

'We had a rough start but uh,'

'It'd be nice to go back to Savior's Respite and see the flowers properly next time, I guess?'

No matter how hard Queenie try to look away, as she knows staring is rude, she can't help but stare at the Pokemon, eyes wide with curiosity. She had never seen anything like her before, and she can't help but admit that she's beautiful.

"Wowwie..."

She's so captivated by the creature's beauty, she couldn't help what she was saying!

"'m sorry, I know it's rude to stare, but...you're so pretty!! What are you? What's yer name? Can 'ya talk?"

[lightblume]

Was she lost? Incredibly, it seemed. One moment she'd been at G'raha's side and the next, she'd found herself in an entirely different environment than where she'd been previously. The more modern and glowing tech lined along the walls, coupled with the outside view of nothing but darkness with the occasional glint of light made her all but certain that this was some sort of space station. Nothing she couldn't handle, of course. Exploration was the goal, after all, and even without her partner she's resolved to do her best whilst perhaps taking note of everything to explain to him later.

As Tsuru cautiously walks the halls, she takes notes of there being no other sounds except for the clink of her footsteps against the metal floor. And the rooms she's passed by seemed to be empty as well, perhaps used for something once but certainly not anything now. One room, however, does seem to have been in recent use, though not for many years. As she enters the room filled with various space suits, general storage, and other miscellaneous items she has no name for--she notices that there's a book on a table in the corner of the room. Curiously, she approaches it and takes note that it looks rather dusty and slightly worn with its pages now being yellow. She opens it, eyes peering over the entries that give what appear to be simple log dates.

A journal from a prior crewmate, she surmises. It may be able to serve some use. As she flips through the pages, one entry, in particular, catches her eye.

CREWMATE'S LOG 1/29/??80

We saw it around the entrance doorway again. But it doesn't do anything other than look at us. I'm starting to get worried about what exactly its intentions are. Only time will tell.

But what was that something? As Tsuru continues to flip steadily through the pages of the journal, she senses a presence by the doorway, which causes her to look up from where she stands, the book still in hand. "If you're simply hiding because of my presence then you need not fear. Though…if you happen to be the creature spoken of in this book, I suggest you start running."

too kind, far too kind. the sort of kindness that could make one feel a little bad about their own misdeeds. ganondorf swallows that back, focused INSTEAD on fiddling with his phone. it certainly isn't something that he would, under normal circumstances, be patient enough for, but it isn't often that someone would be so WILLINGLY kind to his ironclad heart. she didn't lie about her kindness. best to make good use of it.

❝you are patient,❞ he mumbles, nearly GRIPPED by surprise, all the while fumbling with an object far too small for his hands. ganondorf looks up when all is done, showcasing his phone's notebook application - plain and unused, there's no personality on display - and the words 'i love winter' on display. a lie he's too easy to give, for he's NEVER been shy about his distaste for the cold. ❝is there a change? it was … only a LITTLE lie ...❞

the kindness of others, something he could not at all UNDERSTAND, not any longer. thousands of years of isolation have worn him down, left him with his own thoughts. self reflection ought to be a good thing, but he's just grown more and more ACCUSTOMED to being by his lonesome. a fine tuned dagger for the art of war. sometimes he wishes he could shut down that side of himself, at least here, where his life is a literal PURGATORY.

❝you're small, as well.❞ able to investigate places that he could only achieve through brute force. which he could do, but throwing a tantrum would be UNSEEMLY when one's tongue is loose. 

❝an experiment of sorts, hm … ❞ a loose gesture as he fishes out … the little blocky phone he's MOSTLY ignored since his arrival. it has always been used in the most utilitarian of ways, and it shows in how near pristine condition it is and how mundane it looks. no flashy home screen backgrounds or apps beyond the standard built in ones. ❝mayhaps i should type up obvious lies for you to see and see if anything else manages to sprout.❞ it really is AWKWARD, a hindrance -- and far more colourful language that he could use, but what else is he to do but PUSH the boundaries?
