• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Cheesy proclamations about relying on each other aside (he had no plans of relying on a child, thank you very much), at least Koa and Archie seemed basically decent. Naïve enough to drink this Alex guy's Kool-Aid and get Betel corrupted with Shadow, but well-meaning and not batshit. That was...

    "Well, that's what science is all about, inching forward towards greater understanding of the universe. You've just got to do it using rigorous methods that can tease out the actual truth based on factual evidence that can be observed and confirmed, instead of just believing whatever's easy or...

    Dave raised his eyebrow. "I mean, sure," he said. "But the universe being sapient and having opinions on the actions of humans, in ways that align with human values, is not one of those things science might discover to be the case one day. Human brains easily imagine a conscious guy out there...

    Dave couldn't help but smirk a little at their innocent enthusiasm. Things sure were different when he wasn't someone who'd get recognized in the street as the Pokémorph guy. "Not that kind of doctor, I'm afraid. But yeah, I've basically spent the last decade trying to ensure some disadvantaged...

    "Jesus fuck," Dave said. There were no other words for monsters eating the fucking sun. How was every other universe so fucking batshit. He took a long breath. "That's... I'm sorry. Jesus." Had he managed to at least build a decent new life as an Oshawott in the new universe? The guy didn't...

    Dave blinked at Archie. "Well, shit," he said after a few seconds. "That's pretty fucked up. What happened, some kind of natural disaster or what? Anyone you know escape with you, or just...?" Dave raised an eyebrow at Koa. "Depends on your definition of crazy, but yeah, definitely got a pretty...

    Huh. Archie'd world-hopped multiple times? Was that what he was saying? What the fuck. Could they just get summoned somewhere else in the middle of this? He'd never heard of a place called Sinnoh, but that was probably to be expected when everyone was from different worlds. Koa said he'd been...

    Dave nodded slowly at Koa's words. Maybe he should talk to that Seth guy and learn more. Or to Wes. "Well, if it sounds like there's ultimately no harm done using this thing, and it makes it easier to fight other Shadow Pokémon, then why not. Assuming Powehi's thing works, anyway. So long as...

    Okay, okay, what the fuck. There was a TV show in his universe and then a real guy in Wes's universe and now apparently another real guy in a different universe altogether? You could literally just bump into your own alternate universe fucking doppelganger? Christ. There'd better not be another...

    Dave shuddered. Okay, technically this was just the same kind of bad as Pokémon experimentation in a world where they were all sapient. But the idea of it happening to humans in a world with humans sure hit closer to home. "I mean, I guess under the warped logic of this whole place, where...

    Dave took another hard sip of his coffee and then set the mug down, squeezing the handle tightly. The coldness in his chest was suffocating again, his body shivering, and the warmth trickling down his esophagus wasn't actually fucking helping. Fucking idiots. Yeah, sure, they'd thought things...

    Christ. The kid wanted to try to use this guy? Someone with advanced knowledge of bizarre powers they didn't know much about other than that it literally fucking turned people into zombies? Dave looked critically between Koa and Archie as they explained what had happened. That Seth was Shadowed...

    Dave took a deep breath. "Okay. So you met with this Alex guy, and you 'learned' something from him that corrupted Betel and is spreading to everyone? And Betel just didn't see fit to fucking mention this to anyone? We're all corrupted with zombie juice, happy fun surprise whenever you happen to...

    Oh. They'd just casually gone and met with the Wolf? The sapient Shadow Pokémon who'd kicked Nolan's ass six ways to Sunday? Well, okay. Why the fuck wouldn't they. "Focus and ignore the negatives. Great. Sounds fantastic. Sign me up." Dave took another irritated sip of his coffee (but more...

    Dave blinked, squinting at Koa and then Archie, the heavy cold dread in his chest curdling into anger. His claws dug into the floor, low growl forming in his throat, phantom pain stinging his shoulder. "The fuck do you mean we're all infected? Betel insisted after the wagon thing that it'd just...

    Threadmarks: [Ch04] Dave, Archie and Koa Discuss Shadows

    Well, that was a fucking dream. Dave woke up abruptly, disoriented, something uncomfortably cold and heavy lingering weirdly in his chest. Had... had Ridley just fucking walked into the depression ocean? In a dream, sure, but who the fuck does that. It was light out, though, and after a minute...

    "Well, no, because I'm a civilized human being. What the fuck." This condescending little fox was a bounty hunter? Was this some kind of fucked-up 'if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail' situation? Every problem must be solvable by apprehending criminals? Wes was saying...

    "This guy was suggesting exactly that, if you'd been listening." Dave gestured irritably towards the Oshawott. "And I'm not following your reasoning for why your convoluted plan is somehow the best way for these outlaws not to get killed. Who the fuck says it's logically inevitable they're about...

    "How about playing neither side? Who said we need to please either of these people? Did the mayor actually threaten to kick us out if we don't catch his robbers? And if he did, any actual reason not to say fuck this town and take our business elsewhere?" Dave glanced at the Ralts. "Like I said...

    Dave had followed along warily when Bellatrix had claimed they had received a request and she would explain. She'd led him and the entourage of others from the Nexus with her to the dining hall, and he'd wondered if this had something to do with this human supremacist organization they were...
