• 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?

    "I don't know," Ridley admitted. "The Voice mentioned being afraid that touching the charmeleon might... infect them, somehow, so it's possible. That's why I want to ask the other people from the wagon about it. I need to know whether it's actually linked, or just a coincidence of timing." Oh...

    "It fucked us up," Ridley said, and shrugged. "It... I've never seen anything act like that before. I don't know whether it was a wild pokemon or a person. Where I come from, wild pokemon don't - they don't act like that. If they attack it's about territory or defence, not... but it was like it...

    Well, it sure was a good thing Ridley didn't suffer from vertigo. Disconcerting though the sensation of the tower swaying beneath him was, he didn't find it particularly distressing. If the thing was liable to fall down it likely would have done so already. The light from the tower bothered...

    "I could take night watch," Ridley volunteered. "My night vision's excellent -" he was, after all, a ghost type "- and it wouldn't affect my sleep schedule at all." Ahahaha, what sleep schedule? But more importantly, if there were more Witching Beasts out there, then Ridley desperately wanted...

    "We heard something like another voice talking to us," Ridley explained. "I guess we assumed it was related to the shadow pokemon because it happened right after, but if you didn't hear it then maybe not." He was still paying attention to the ongoing conversation, though, so when Anite...

    Ridley shrugged, a full-body ruffle of his costume. He thought that he was getting better at communicating his gestures, considering that facial expressions didn't mean much through the disguise. "No particular reason. Koa and I experienced some weird dreams after the, uh -" shit, how should he...

    Andre didn't seem to be doing anything right now. Ridley sidled up to him and felt inexplicably better as soon as he was standing in the other guy's shadow and out of direct sunlight. Was that some kind of weird ghost-type instinct he'd received from his mimikyu form? Cool, great, good to know...

    Blaguarro Town Main Station

    A kidnapper who knew teleport, Ridley guessed. That seemed to be the simplest explanation for how people could vanish into thin air in the middle of the day. The idea that it could be something like the voice behind it unsettled him, though, considering the dream he'd had after his encounter...

    Blaguarro Town Main Station

    Thanks to his shitty sleep schedule, Ridley had been, depending on your perspective, already awake or still awake at the time the maus came to fetch him. His travelling companions, on the other hand, mostly seemed to be varying degrees of groggy or bad-tempered about their early start. Not a...

    Offscreen Activities

    Following the wagon incident, Ridley starts asking around to find out as much as he can about Witching Beasts/shadow pokemon. He also checks to see whether Frontier Town's library has anything on the topic.

    Frontier Town Traveller's Haus - Guest Rooms

    "Of course I'm going!" Ridley said. "We barely know anything about the Witching Beasts so far. I have to be part of that investigation." Sure, okay, their first encounter with one hadn't exactly ended well for anyone involved, but Ridley wouldn't make those same mistakes again. If there was...

    "I've got no idea," Ridley admitted. "But whenever I think about it I remember the voice saying that they were afraid touching the shadow pokemon would make them like it. What if it's something like that? An infected one of whatever the voice is." He said, "Do you know if any of us have been...

    Anything weird? Well, yes, nightmares, obviously, but - - ah. That. "You heard it too?" Ridley asked. He wasn't sure whether he was relieved by that or not. On the one hand, that meant the whatever-it-was wasn't specifically targeting Ridley. On the other hand, that meant it was more likely...

    "Missingno's the term for a pokemon - or potentially a group of pokemon, given that its reported appearance varies - which appears off the coast of Cinnabar," Ridley started. "It's claimed to cause perceptual issues or even death in those who encounter it. It's already known that Cinnabar...

    "Eh." Ridley raised a hand and wobbled it from side-to-side in a so-so gesture. "I haven't met any of the well-known ones, but I spent a lot of time as a kid investigating urban legends. You'd be amazed how many cryptid reports are just ghost-types playing tricks, or people seeing a noctowl at...

    "Ah," Ridley said. It was easier to think about cryptids than about other people watching him get ripped up, but how did he explain the concept to someone who didn't know? Aware he was about to start lecturing, he began: "Cryptid's a term for pokemon which... might exist, but have not yet been...

    Ridley considered his potential responses to that and decided on honesty. "I like cryptids," he said. "I've been fascinated by them my whole life. I think it's vitally important that we all constantly challenge the limits of what we consider 'known'. I'd wanted to look into the Witching Beasts...

    "Well, it kinda sucked," Ridley admitted. He wasn't actually sure how much damage he'd avoided because the shadow charmeleon had been occupied with slashing up his disguise instead, but what he had taken was more than enough to make him miserable. "The disguise is just a distraction, I guess? If...

    Ridley had been... well, resting, mostly, or at least trying to rest. He thought he might have drifted off for an hour or two at some point, but such sleep as he'd achieved had been... ...fractured. He still hurt. Less than he might have expected, considering what had happened to him, but the...

    "No, I'm saying that I'm a mimikyu and if it went after me there were good odds it would only have shredded my costume," Ridley argued. He hadn't actually been thinking about that when he'd climbed out of the wagon - hadn't been thinking much of anything at all, really, other than that he...
