• 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 locked eyes with Halcón, and moved to try to intercept him before he got to the other Wayfarers, to see how he’d react. He probably wouldn’t be able to take many hits from any of the Luxray warriors, certainly not Sierra, but he might be able to pose a problem for Halcón if he wanted to...

    Gladion was nervous, but also excited. Even though the stakes were much lower than at the bridge, he still wanted the Escarpa to respect him. He liked them, on principle, but they still left him on edge. People he wanted as allies, even if he was acutely away they hadn’t necessarily earned it...

    “They’re strong and passionate. I liked the them, and they’ll be good allies. If we keep them as such. I’m nervous about our ability to navigate the political situation here long-term, but you won’t have to worry about that yet. And the more they know us, the more leeway we’re likely to get…” I hope…

    “That would make sense.” Gladion glanced in the general direction of the train system, recalling their previous plan to deal with the shadows. “We’re planning to work with them dealing with Cipher, too, so it’d be a good idea to familiarize yourself.”

    Hm. That was a good question, Gladion had noticed it at the time— a lack of any sort of surprise at all. “Nothing. They don’t seem the type to let themselves be easily freaked out by something they don’t recognize, but I’d have thought they didn’t really notice it at all. If not for the fact...

    “Awesome. I’d ask Laura if she has any use for it, she’s the one of us who has a role in the Gazette. And if not, there’ll be other chances. I’ve talked to her about it before, and I’m of the impression we’re on pretty good terms. We’ll find a time to give it a shot at some point.”

    Gladion laughed. Nova was wagging his fish tail? That was new. It did raise his spirits. “Yeah, maybe. I’m trying to see if I can get something like the photo you had in the news out further now that papers about us will have more interest and’ll probably spread further. And if they’re more...

    “Don’t know. But there were alive a year ago, so odds are they still are. But they could be anywhere on the planet, and potentially not even free. Or they could have no interest in seeing us.” He’d already asked Laura about trying to get another image of them out there. The chances of finding...

    “Ah.” Shit. Gladion had expected it to be about Nulls or something, if it explained why she used information from that place. Instead, it was just… bad news. “There is one other option, if we don’t think the logic will work like that of either of our world’s. Figured out that as of a year ago...

    “Different logic, then. But I feel like I should ask…” Gladion wished he had an easier way to express sympathy. Nova was probably familiar with the difficulty of emoting with the helmet, though. “Until you were shadowed? What happened, what did you learn from it?”

    “Huh. I suppose that probably means your world runs on different logic. But maybe we’re lucky and this one runs more like mine, we are all biological after all.” An alternative occurred to Gladion, he raised a brow as if preemptively preparing for disappointment. “Or… is there a Faba involved...

    “That’s… I mean, it’s better than the alternative. Would suck more if they did get blood parasites to bind to anyone…” He raised a brow. “Given all that, I’m honestly surprised you’re willing to get back into dealing with sycophants. Guess the two of us run on different wavelengths… Just keep...

    What the hell? Was every world out there worse than his? Did he land in some kind of notably less shit than average world? He’d had plenty of gripes about his but they all felt petty in comparison. He was glad that Gladion had ever gotten his sense of bodily autonomy and identity under control...

    "Definitely haven't heard of them. I guess..." Gladion made a choking noise as his brain caught up to his ears. "Lunala? One of Alola's legends is a fucking ultra beast? And Lillie's just... running around with that. Great. That's just fantastic. And you've got even worse species running around?"

    Gladion raised a talon pensively. "To be clear here, when you say out parents had 'a thing' you mean that in a 'political-economic unit I don't know the exact noun for' way and not a 'does this make us interdimensional step-siblings?' way, right? Because if it's the former I'd really like to...

    “Ah…” Gladion felt he should have something to say about how… silly it felt when put that way. His instinct was to push back and say he’d never do anything like that… But, well, it was Odette he was talking to. “Fortunately as you’re well aware I’d never do anything even vaguely resembling...

    “That she does,” he laughed. Seems some things never really changed about Hazel, too. “I don’t think I’ve ever heard of that name before at all. Not even a plant, clearly your friend’s got a few more mental tracks for naming than me.” As tempting as it was to indulge in pointless ramblings...

    “Wha— Oh, I see…” The idea of not being identical twins with Lillie almost sent him reeling, wondering how it made sense, but saying ‘you look like twins, I’ll say that much’ about siblings was weird enough that it sounded like the comfortable level of euphemism. Especially if it meant he looked...

    “Thank you…” That was a lot to take in, and wholly unexpected compared to what he’d been prepared for. He was having trouble finding a place to even start. He chose something small as his foothold “Alright. I guess this is the least significant point of difference, but it feels so petty on a...

    “Well… I’d already started trying to disassociate myself from you because I was certain you weren’t getting away from the rail squad. Which…” Gladion dropped into a tone halfway between awkward muttering and plain speech. He wasn’t good at this honesty shit. “Yeah, alright, that was a bad...
