• 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?

    "As ready as I can be," Nova said. His voice was steady. Neither confident nor nervous. He had to keep a level head. Based on what Owen had told him, he decided to forgo his RKS System and leave the Memory Drives back in the cabin. Nova had tuned his aura to Battle Armor and brought some trail...

    "Yeah. Not gonna fault you there." Nova sighed. "And it's not helpful for the fight ahead." The Guardian was still standing there. Nova looked at it. "I, uh... am going to have to figure out how to make it go away without just hitting it repeatedly." A dray laugh escaped his beak. "So, mmm...

    "In a manner of speaking." Nova's crest tightened. "It's just... thinking about the people who got summoned here. Some of us... really stretch the definition of a 'heroic spirit.'" His cheek bolts turned a couple of times. "It... worries me, honestly. If the people that made Betel gave him such...

    "Not everything has to be big and flashy," Nova said, nodding at the Guardian. "I want to protect people. Somehow... Betel must've recognized that and tooled my aura to operate that way." He clicked his tongue. "And, uh... Betel's probably dealing with his own... uncertainties. The trip to the...

    "Nice to see you, too, bud," Nova deadpanned. Or was a greeting harmful to him? Well, Nova couldn't take it back. Instead, he looked at his teammates. "Just... remember what we learned from Dayle. Keep those close to you in mind."

    The tiny lance plinked off the Guardian. It looked at Nova, who looked back at it and shrugged. "I think it has my durability. And I'm not sure I really felt anything?"

    "Knock yourself out," Nova said. His Guardian squinted at him. "What? I didn't mean it literally."

    "Back home, I call it my Guardian," Nova said. His expression got heavier. "It was once my teammate. Helping me fight against my creator." He looked down shamefully. "But, for as bad as I thought she was, she was holding back something much worse. The person who shadowed me." He looked at the...

    Nova heard the muttering with his big, silly triangle ears. "You sure you're okay?" he whispered. "I can stick by you as much as you need."

    Nova shook his head. "I wouldn't say that. I've made a lot of big mistakes up until now. And this is... this is..." That darkness was bubbling up. Nova coughed once. Then again. Shadows swirled around his claws. They gathered up to his left, growing larger and larger. That black cloud spawned a...

    "I get it," Nova said, bobbing his head slowly. "It's... tough to understand. But I need to do it." He gave Gladion an apologetic look. "If you knew that's sacrifice could bring about a miracle, would you go through with it? Even if it meant you may not see what that miracle is?"

    "It was part of the deal," Nova said. "There's... someone like Auriga back home who helped me set things up. And I think they sensed Betel and offered up my soul. Get to... experience being free again, before the end." His crest fanned out a bit. "Which is why I'll do my best to hold the line...

    Nova's fish tail wagged a bit, kicking a bit of dust up in the process. "Despite some of the craziness, I'm glad to be here." He looked at Gladion. "And I'm... choosing to believe that, even if we can't consciously remember one another... this will stick with us." He awkwardly lifted his...

    "But it does," Nova said. He offered Gladion the best reassuring smile his beak could manage. "Don't beat yourself up over it. It wasn't your idea. You didn't make me." He slowly shook his head. Gladion said Alola, right? "Dunno how much you know about Sinnoh, but my creator was a lady named...

    Oh. That really was what this was about, then. And for a moment Nova was really tempted to answer something to the contrary. But that would... be bad. It'd be like when he dropped all that stuff about alternate versions on Gladion a few months ago. Unnecessary. Unhelpful. Instead his mind...

    A tired laugh escaped Nova's beak. "I dunno about least expendable. Appreciate the compliment, though." Part of him wanted to steer the conversation in a different direction. But, whether it was the simmering darkness or just dumb instinct, he didn't do so. "Going to hell early definitely...

    Nova's eyes slowly opened. He looked over his shoulder. "Oh, hey." His orange cheek bolts turned once in their sockets. "Lying if I didn't say I was nervous about this fight. Gotta let those nerves settle." He shut his eyes again. "And you?"

    Threadmarks: [Ch07] Nova & Gladion ~ Type: Full of It

    As Owen had winded down his part of the meeting, Nova had put forth a reckless idea: to send some Wayfarers directly to Eremus Rift via Twilight Quarry. And he had volunteered as tribute, right on the heels of saying what the Comb showed him. Given some folks' reactions to that, he figured it...

    Following the meeting with Owen, Nova tells those Wayfarers assembled that he wants a small group to go straight to the Voidlands via Twilight Quarry to directly distract Alexander (and whatever weird minions he has) while the others cut off his dungeon access points. He asks for volunteers to...

    Nova also tells Sage about Terminal One, but says he's not going because he's going directly to distract Alexander. He also warns Sage that, while their radiance can counter shadows, too much of it will make them extra vulnerable to shadows. "You'll have to balance things out. But I'm sure you...
