• 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?

    Gladion recoiled. Sada asked it so casually, like the question carried no weight. To her, it probably didn't. She didn't seem to find Neo too objectionable, given she'd worked with the CDE. He didn't feel the same way about it, though. "What? No way!" He sputtered out those first few words...

    Lillian turned around and stared at Blue, shocked. “You— No, I’m still speaking Alolan. And… it sounds like you are, too? Something’s translating us.” Was it her, somehow? Had she tapped some weird psychic power? She’d heard that Gardevoir with human hosts gained the capacity to communicate...

    A foul grimace crossed Gladion’s face. That was it, then? Everything that had happened to Leona, it was all… just a chance to calibrate a machine to them. “And then Neo, what, sold her to Cipher alongside Sage for use in shadow experimentation?” And Neo… Neo was, Matthias had confirmed it...

    Lillian grimaced. She didn’t really know anything about dungeon spirits, but they sounded bad, and she was pretty sure she understood everything else well enough to dislike the way things were headed one way or another. “Wait, is this some kind of burial site? Why would someone have been...

    "Oh, it's a promise I made to a friend of mine. She's looking for Auriga, so that she can get home. Got missummoned by..." (Huh, actually, given the faction Sada had worked for she might actually know this already.) "Wait, the name Leona Lycas mean anything to you? Got missummoned when Cipher...

    Oh. That answer was... Weird? Sad? Deeply weird in a profoundly sad way. Lillian generally considered herself pretty (involuntarily) good at being weird and sad, but he was blowing her out of the water right now. Going around wearing his absent (dead?) partner's visage as a way to remember her...

    Gladion's eyes lit up. "We're in Auranosa?" That temple place had to be somewhere around here. The place Auriga had told him to find her, the place they needed to take Leona. He had to find it. He'd promised her that he'd help, if he could. (Actually, he wasn’t sure if he’d said that aloud or...

    Huh, so Gladion (or Gladius, he said) was a Zoroark. That did seem fitting. But why was he crouched down like that? If he wanted to avoid getting hit by the bullet, then he should've... Oh. Ohhh. The idea that there could be different versions of people was new to her, and no one had really...

    Lillian pushed the wet hair hung down in front of her eyes, horror movie ghost girl style. She parted a crack in front of her left eye to more clearly watch Odette. The Mawile’s shoulders were almost at her head level and she was aiming up at Gladion’s head. (Or where his head appeared to be? It...

    What had she done? This wasn’t what— no— she didn’t want this to happen. She was trying to help him, and instead she’d only made everything worse. A corner of her brain wanted to try to fix things, to do something dramatic, but it was a corner of her brain which hadn’t been in control since…...

    Telepathy wasn't really suitable for communicating the nuances of what Jade was saying, but her body language made it clear how she was feeling on its own. She and Virga were arguing about Betel? Gladion'd had some thoughts about Betel back as a Null that were awkward to look back on now, so he...

    "Like what? I can't make a self-deprecating joke, that there's a stick in my ass or whatever?" Gladion’s face gave the appearance that it was taking real effort for him not to yell that. He was confused and frustrated by this conversation, trying to navigate it though multiple layers of...

    Gladion glanced between the other Wayfarers present, not quite understanding anything being said himself. Hopefully, with Betel here, translation would be back online soon. "I supposed to be understanding this? Je parlez Alolen et Kalosienne. But it's probably fine as long as someone's...

    Gladion couldn't help be somewhat amused at Jade and Virga bickering, given he had a funny feeling there was souls-choosing-things nonsense responsible. He considered telling them the same thing he'd constantly been told back when he was a Null, which was that even if they didn't like it, their...

    Gladion’s eyes widened. Virgo was supposed to be Lugia? Rookidee must be one hell of a downgrade to get used to, although it did seem consistent with Forlas’ summoning restrictions. He remembered talking to Jade about their respective teams but he really didn’t remember Lugia coming up during...
