• 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?

    Frontier Town Nina's Place

    There it was, the disappointment. The reality that the idealized notion of fighting back against injustice was something of the past, and that all the stories that'd ever made her role in it all sound cool or important were just stories, now. Jade let out a sigh, leaning back in her seat. "If...

    Frontier Town Nina's Place

    She'd already told various people the bits and pieces. Might as well just say it. Jade put on a sheepish half-smile. "It's not. We lost." The moment the words were out of her mouth, she felt bad for putting it so bluntly. "I-I mean. It is what it is, you know?" she added, hurriedly holding...

    Frontier Town Nina's Place

    Jade's ears pricked forward. “Yeah, yeah they’ve been with me for over a year now. Three of them. And, well… I guess I would say we’ve usually been on a team at one point or another. First the rebel team where we got trained on how to fight the Rockets. And then after that fell through, it...

    Frontier Town Nina's Place

    Jade idly swirled her drink as she listened to Laura's words, and it struck her that in her own fight, back home, she'd never really been alone. First there'd been the Rebellion, and then Ajia and Starr, and Rudy and Darren, and... and for a while, her patron. "That sounds like it'd be pretty...

    Jade waved a paw in a wobbly circle, still holding the tortilla. "Ehh... kind of both. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and met someone who was recruiting people to fight them, except he had his own motives which was a whole other thing, and..." Oh. It wasn't until Laura said it...

    Jade leaned back in her chair, tail swaying behind her. "Kinda similar. Main difference is the part where the organization we were fighting was, uh... straight-up a crime ring. So it wasn't much like trying to find some dark hidden truth or whatever. We knew it was bad news before we...

    "Ground-type attacks," Jade repeated, tapping a paw against her other arm. "Yeah, that'd probably be the gang of Croagunk. There was a lot of Mud Shot flying around. But then... why'd the report try to pass it off as failed parts? Wouldn't that look worse on the company?" Unless someone else...

    Frontier Town Nina's Place

    A job offer. She'd sorta gotta a job offer from Lugia, kinda. Different when it was a legend working for a formal organization and not just a fragile loose alliance with legends and humans working toward a common goal. Jade idly reached for the berry plate and scooped a few of them onto a...

    Threadmarks: Ch06: Jade & Laura, Kindred Cats

    Some time after the battle with Moltres... "So like, that was pretty much the end of it. We were obviously exhausted, and I don't know how much longer we could've kept it up, but Moltres was actually willing to come along with us afterward, so... I guess it worked out." Jade and Laura were...

    Well, that at least confirmed that Brisa hadn't been anywhere near the train cars by the time the work crew came to deal with the situation... but she'd kind of already been expecting that much. Jade edged closer to the front of the party, trying to stand as tall as she could. "Right, uh... it...

    Jam let out a dismissive snort but didn't respond to Leaf's pressing. After the follow-up question, Phillip nodded fervently and pumped a fist. "Boss Buck's the strongest mon here. Looks out for us an' makes sure the company treats us right!" She glanced back at Whistler questioningly...

    Sojaveña Wilds Brisa's Cabin

    Sage nodded along with Nova's words. "The air, the light, they feel good." The chimera closed their eyes for a moment, experimentally letting their crest fan out the same way before glancing down at their crumpled neck feathers. "Probably, I will need help..." But then their eyes lit up, as...

    Heracross nodded along with Laura's introduction before thrusting a claw in the air as if to show off how big her arm was. "Phillip! And this here's Piston"--she gestured first to the shy Gigalith before motioning to Raboot--"and Jam--" "Hol' up," Raboot Jam said, peering at Jade...

    Gigalith turned their head in surprise, their body segments making a low rocky grinding sound with the motion. Raboot leaned against the rock-type's side and said, "Mm, that job. A right pain, that one." Heracross tilted her head. "If you're lookin' for someone, you best head down to the...

    Sojaveña Wilds Brisa's Cabin

    Sage blinked a few times, as if processing that they'd managed to hold both shadows and light at bay for now. The chimera's posture was still tightly focused, and it would probably take a while for them to keep hold of the energies without a tight focus... but for now, all was calm as they...

    Jade adjusted her shoulder strap. "That's my best guess, anyway. The ticket station didn't have any info, so... I'm hoping the guys who actually had to deal with the cleanup will know more." If they found the right guys. "Honestly, I was just trying to get somewhere safe," Jade admitted...

    Sojaveña Wilds Brisa's Cabin

    Sage's hurried breaths slowed until they were breathing in unison with Nova. In... out. In... out. An ear flicked toward Gladion. Sage lifted their head to look around slowly, considering. The rivers of gold trailing down their plumage had lessened, just a slow trickle. "The lavender plants...

    Sojaveña Wilds Brisa's Cabin

    Sage glanced from Nova to Gladion to Laura, their face fully visible for the first time. The chimera's expression was fairly neutral--they probably hadn't had much experience with visibly emoting at all, not when their face had been hidden for so long--but their eyes told a different story...

    Sojaveña Wilds Brisa's Cabin

    The low hum grew steadily louder, as light spilled out across the surface of the mask, bit by bit, as if it were shining through the ceramic. Sage caught sight of Nova's shimmering shield, and their stance relaxed noticeably, tail wagging ever so slightly in that way that Nova's sometimes did...

    Sage listened as the others spoke. "Feeling out my Radiance, that is..." It was easy to see the conflict simmering behind the chimera's mask--the conflict between suppressing feelings and sensation, retreating into a comforting void, versus feeling a rush of heightened emotion in a deluge of...
