• 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?

    Sojaveña Wilds Escarpa Clan Camp

    Isidora watched Ghaspius float back, actually a little surprised by his answer. Does anything phase him? She nodded back. "I appreciate it." Sierra approached and Isidora felt herself tense. Sudden doubt flickered at the back of her mind. This wasn't her soul she was dealing with, it was...

    Sojaveña Wilds Escarpa Clan Camp

    At the luxray's explanation, Isidora brought a paw to her chin. So it makes you drunk on it, and then kills you? Could be worse. That cocky part of her was only thinking about how simple it'd be to work around such a drawback: she had plenty of experience with powers that kill you, there was...

    Sojaveña Wilds Escarpa Clan Camp

    Isidora took a shocked step back as the light burned underneath her, tail fanned out and fur bristling. She was lucky she was wearing sandals, and she still felt it. Her eyes fixated on Sierra's paws. Focus on intent, push aura to limits... If she could just figure out that second part, then it...

    Sojaveña Wilds Escarpa Clan Camp

    For a moment, the veil of authority that separated Sierra from them seemed to rise somewhat, at least to Isidora's eyes. It's not the same thing. Not even remotely. But still, she knew how it felt to be faced with that. But do you really? You ran away. She placed a paw on her belt. "Do what you...

    Sojaveña Wilds Escarpa Clan Camp

    Welp, there goes half the reason we were here. Not that Isidora particularly cared what happened to the rail. Serves them right, honestly. But still, from the start the Escarpa were never actually willing to negotiate, were they? Halcón could've told us that, but he didn't. Her eyes narrowed. On...

    Sojaveña Wilds Escarpa Clan Camp

    'Don't waste words.' There was a saying for that back home. Isidora was sure to keep to herself, focusing instead on controlling her temperature with careful pants and icy claws. She kept her hat skewed even and tried to project the confidence she remembered once having. There was the distinct...

    Threadmarks: [Ch03] It has to work this time... (Isidora Solo)

    For Isidora's purposes, night was the best time to try this. The temperature was bearable and her mind was at its sharpest. She didn't plan to stay long or go too far along the highway: this was for some light training, and nothing more. The exacts of how her powers worked in this world was...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    Isidora put her stuff back in her bag and followed her, several things still on her mind. And now that the interview was over, one, small, nagging question floated up from the back of it. It was so inconsequential, really... But as soon as she caught up and felt she had the chance, she went for...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    "Right..." Isidora picked up her notes and gave them another glance over. "There's still a ton more I'm curious about..." She sighed again. "But yeah, I'll admit it, I was only doin' the research 'cause I was plannin' to join 'em." Slowly, she got up from her seat and tucked her notebook under...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    Dammit. Why does she have to be right? Isidora pushed herself away from her notes until she sat up straight. She didn't bother covering them anymore, instead anxiously flexing her claws close to the edge of the table. "...Thing is, I used to do similar work once," she admitted. "So it's not...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    "I see." Tlalli had been so kind and non-judgmental, and here Isidora was, trying to figure out if there was something secretly screwed up about the gliscor's old job she was proud in. Obviously she knew she wasn't going to get that from this, that's why she'd been hesitant about it. But it...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    Isidora's ears prickled with shame, laying flat against her head. "Well, yeah." She shrunk over her notes, looking down at them and away from Tlalli. "That's what I meant..." She didn't need that explained to her, did she? Did my words come out wrong, or am I just a dumbass? In the moment it...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    Isidora returned a soft, knowing chuckle. "Yeah, you could bare-" And then she blinked. She almost started talking about her own experiences, which wouldn't have made any sense to someone in another world. "Uh..." She held her pen close to her cheek so she could scratch it. "...Got distracted...

    'Like Red Claw?^No. Benign? Yes.' "I think I'm starting to get a picture," said Isidora, eyes closed with a claw lightly scratching the page. "It's about what needs to be done, then. You sound like you're proud to have worked for them." Maybe they're worth working with after all... She opened...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    Once she was sitting at the table in a comfortable position to conceal her writing with an arm, Isidora began taking notes. 'Protect civilians. Keep travellers safe. Rural focus.' A pause to gather her thoughts. 'Organised towards specific role. Popular enough to be glorified. Spreads...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    Isidora couldn't tell if it was the heat or hot shame burning under her pelt. Way to go, you offended her. She felt like a kit getting put in her place for being too rough and confident. And maybe she was. "I... Sorry, I was outta line," Isidora apologized, just slightly avoiding eye contact...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    "Um..." The word 'friend' caught Isidora off guard, and she immediately broke eye contact. Why's she being so forward? Obviously, it was part of Tlalli's job to be nice, but this was almost too nice for Isidora to know how to handle. She muttered quietly. "I wasn't really looking for personal...

    Frontier Town Sand Veil Archives

    Isidora watched the librarian swoop down into place behind the desk, and kept her claws out of view to relax them -- it wasn't that she found a gliscor intimidating per se, though this was her first experience with one. She just hadn't expected a response so quickly. "I guess you could say...

    Threadmarks: [Ch03] So Who Even Are the Rangers, Anyway?

    Plans on what to do next had been circulating through Isidora's head in the days since the meeting. It was clear the group had reached a point where they had no choice but to finally start pushing forward on what they knew, yet unlike some pokémon, she was not going to debase herself for this...

    Offscreen Activities

    Since the meeting, Isidora began taking her self-training more seriously. Having previously avoided them, she begins taking bounties from the bulletin board. Out of curiosity and looking for a better way to keep training, she also searches town to see if it happens to have some kind of training...
