• 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?

    "Won't come to that, anyway," Leaf said, leaning on "won't" a little harder than she'd intended. "There's still more intel we can get, and we'll have the numbers to pull him in twenty directions at once." She glanced around, caught sight of a few Rangers bustling about their preparations. "Big...

    Leaf didn't ask whether Leona was sure she was up to it. Woulda been patronizing. Of course she'd want to go, even if it might be hard for her. Of course she'd want to see this through. (Who wouldn't?) And she had been doing tons better, lately. She still looked quiet, pensive, but not broken...

    "Yeah, I guess." Felt kinda weird to be rummaging through stuff that belonged to other people; surely at least a little of it had to be traceable somehow. But there'd be time for that later. And if any of it did turn out to be useful, then, welp, they'd probably need it before later... "Thanks...

    Leona probably already knew that one last (please last) big raid against Cipher and Alexander was on its way. Chief Ayda and the other Rangers had agreed to help out, after all, and having a ton of dungeons to lock down meant having to do a ton of prep; likely impossible not to hear about it...

    For just a moment, even down here in the quiet dimness of the Heart, it was bright as it'd been outside. Leaf hadn't actually seen anyone use the Relic Stone before—technically still hadn't all the way through, on account of having to close her eyes for a sec, whoops—but she hadn't been...

    "Yeah, we got them," Leaf said, nodding to Mhynt. Great to finally get this out of the way, but there really was more brewing on the horizon, wasn't there. She moved to help Seir gather any of his stuff that the clowns might've lifted when they attacked him. "Did you ever hear them talk about...

    Leaf twitched for a second at the name "Blue". Just a name, just a coincidence, that's all. Ignore it. (If Latios was Blue then that meant Latias was— nope, just gonna put the brakes on right there. Didn't matter. Not them. Not even not-them the way Mew was not-him. Just totally unrelated...

    Leaf let the tension fall out of her shoulders a little now that the spritzee was gone. ("Scary zoroark", huh... pity Bellatrix couldn't've just scared her off outright.) Yeah, technically they did have to tow the crashed clown car back to the local cops, but there had to be something they could...

    [I... I guess? If it'd actually be safe for everyone to get in and out while that thing is stomping around...] Leaf supposed it was manageable enough; they really only needed this for one run through the Barrens to stop Alexander and Cipher, not regular sightseeing trips. Boy it sure would suck...

    "I think," Leaf said, making precious little effort to hide her annoyance and negative effort to hide the badge pinned to her poncho, "you should let the actual Rangers worry about what is and isn't in their jurisdiction. You don't get to decide what happens to them either. Doesn't matter...

    Seriously? A... Duel Dome recruiter, just happening to wander by. And wanting to recruit a bunch of shadow-creating kidnappers. Had Novelux advanced far enough to invent hidden camera television? It felt like this was hidden camera television. Way to kill the mood of a job well done. "Mr...

    The clearing went dark for a second as the kicks slammed into her, dark and mercifully quiet, no obnoxious phantom rhythm, not even really any space to parse the horrified gasp in the back of her mind. Then it was daytime again, and it felt like she'd been run over by a chorus line, and for a...

    Leaf didn't bother staying to watch the seviper collapse into a pile of wet noodles. She galloped down the slope, let the rhythm momentum carry her straight into the electabuzz, trampled straight over him, determined to make sure he wouldn't screw this up. And then finally, finally, she pushed...

    "No, Koa—" Dammit. She could've been there, should've just ignored this loser, should've just forced her way over and taken him down and been done with it before he could— So we'll finish him off. But this goddamn seviper was still whining at her. Still ruining everything. Leaf rounded on...

    So the thing out there trying to turn them into popsicles was some kind of legendary, and now the thing that had helped them was also a legendary? A latios, even? Sure, why not, just another Plainsday. "Thanks," she said again, too rattled by their narrow escape to bother not staring. She half...

    There he was! With the zangoose finally sprawled on the rocks, maybe dreaming about where she could spend her Monopoly money, Leaf just had to get over there—all the way over there, gah, why did five people even need a camp this big—and help Koa deal with the disco duck. So what? She'd...

    Leaf wanted to follow Miror B. wherever he'd disappeared to, keep harrying him, crack that infuriating smugness, but the zangoose had finally wised up and was getting in her face. The slash sent her reeling, but she spat the taste of iron out of her mouth and grinned anyway. "Oh, look, it's ol'...

    "'M fine." She managed something like a smile through the panting. "You?" Leaf looked around, still confused about the space they'd found themselves in. Dungeon stuff, yeah, yeah, et cetera, but. Was it actually warmer in here, or was it just that they were out of the wind? Had there really...

    Huh. "Minor B." didn't get a rise out of him? Leaf had thought that was pretty good. She was almost impressed, except that probably he was less actually focused on the task at hand and more just extra full of himself. (Blue probably could've gotten to him. Maybe she just wasn't shouty enough...

    It'd worked. It shouldn't have worked, some terrifying criminal organization should not have lieutenants that were as gullible as that pack of jabbery little impidimp, but here they were. Leaf couldn't enjoy/roll her eyes at the sight of the zangoose greedily scrabbling at fake money for long...
