    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?

    Holy shit. The supernatural drama thriller that was Odette's world was fucking bananas. Literally the daughter of the most wanted creep in the world and a barely-legal student asked to have his child by a literal fucking demon. "So, what, you personally saved the world? Or did your existence...

    Dave cracked a smile at 'You're a good Dave,' though Odette looked weirdly embarrassed about it. "I mean, on some level they're all basically my kids. Wouldn't exist if it weren't for me. On paper, though, no relation." As she explained the situation with her father, he stared, his brow...

    Dave raised his eyebrows with a sharp exhale at 'you're a good dad'. "Well, only one of them's legally mine. Her name's Jean, she's part Ninetales, she's fucking adorable and also a little hellbeast sometimes, she loves superheroes and cartoons and has about fifteen different things she wants...

    "Fucking tell me about it," Dave said to Odette's remarks about cults. Odette's father and his blood pact thing sounded like essentially a goddamn cult as well, if one whose god was actually fucking real. He took a deep breath in response to her question. "The other kids are surprisingly okay...

    Defend yourself and others you give a shit about. Yeah, Jack'd probably have described it that way, right before going and getting Mia and Will killed. (Come to think of it, he'd noticed the jaws biting her arm at the Moltres fight and had a sense through the combat network that it was making...

    Made sense, didn't it, for the wrath legendary to have the move Betel's analytical combat network had called Fiery Wrath. Something did feel better about hearing normally she couldn't do that herself, though, that she was reluctant to do whatever ritual shit (fucking rituals involving the...

    Well, this was all a fucking lot. If Forlas was a Western, Odette's world sounded like some kind of wild supernatural family drama thriller cheerfully sprinkled with cheeky blasphemy. Which was honestly a better frame of reference: just another bananas fantasy world where fiction was real. Maybe...

    As batshit as all this sounded (flavors of rage, what the fuck), Dave couldn't help smirking at Odette's dry humour, grinning at her descriptions of her childhood. Unstable little rebel who was part Pokémon via being possessed by a demon legendary. Holy shit. He wouldn't have wanted to be her...

    Occultology? 'Magical' types? Did she just mean, like, Psychic and Ghost? Maybe they'd just retained some terminology even after they'd started to figure out the science at work? His own world did still talk about Ghost-types despite the notion they were departed spirits having been debunked a...

    Okay. Okay. That made a bit more sense. "Oh, yeah, we've got religions. Christianity's the most widespread, can't escape it where I'm from. My parents were evangelicals. But, you know, they're myths. Most people believe because it's what they were told, doesn't make it true. Every religion's got...

    Dave blinked. Then blinked again. "Wait, wait, wait. Christianity is real in your world? Like, actual literal demons and sins and omnipotent three-in-one God who made humanity in his own image and sent his only son to be crucified and resurrected for our sins, or just, there are some creepy...

    Dave cracked a grin at her comment about telling shitty authority figures to go fuck themselves. Whatever else, he liked Odette. "I mean, this dead tree sure didn't stand much of a chance," he said, just as a charred branch cracked and fell to the ground with a thump. "Gone before you could...

    Dave didn't usually spend a lot of time on training, and when he did it was with the Escarpa, who knew their shit when it came to combat and would actually do practice fights, instead of just standing somewhere dumbly attacking nothing. But whether it was the evolution or the new move he'd...

    Dave took a breath, finally relaxing muscles that'd been tensed since Andre's confession. Betel summoning him here was a fucking choice. He supposed it was Andre's world that'd sent him, technically - so, what, did his universe agree that what he was doing was good and moral? What the fuck was...

    Little Habits

    I also always talk to all NPCs. I'm not done with a place until I have! Also fight every trainer, battle every wild Pokémon (no running or Repels unless really special circumstances apply), and enter every building. I would usually buy Pokéballs either in multiples of five or an amount that...

    Dave looked stiffly back at Andre. The guy was obviously fucking delusional in the worst way. He deserved to get caught and rot in jail for it. He sought out targets. He justified himself with lofty consequentialism while clearly motivated to torture by some weird fucking sadist impulse for...

    Frontier Town Traveller's Haus - Guest Rooms

    Dave shuddered, looking away. He wouldn't lose any sleep over someone killing the nightmare demon dragon who was fixing to take over the world. At that point they were off in fantasyland anyway, fighting monsters. Being Andre would just make it worse, because then it'd come with all this fucking...

    Dave took a breath, eyes still on Andre. Yeah. He hadn't killed Ridley, had he. Whatever warped sense of justice Andre had going on, it didn't include murdering people to shut them up. Small comforts. Even though, in the ostensibly consequentialist framing, it'd be only fucking logical, wouldn't...

    And just like that, Andre was back to appearing jarringly normal, as if it had never happened. Dave's hackles were still up, feet backed up against the wall. "And what, you're going to kill me if I do?" His heart pounded sickeningly in his chest. "If you're liable to just go out there and...

    Dave suggests the Wayfarers submit a joint opinion column in the Gazette, signed by all of them, endorsing Greasewood as a candidate. He offers to write it or assist in writing it; if he does, it would offer reasoning about continuing Lucien's established work bringing peace and stability to the...
