• 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?

    Leona nodded slowly, chewing something over in her head. Had she been glad to meet Seth? Sure, glad enough. He wasn't the only one she'd met here, though. "I'm glad we got to meet," she said, without ceremony. "Here on Forlas. You're alright with me, Gladion." High praise, from a wolf of Orre...

    Leona didn't seem to take issue with the Nova thing. She just nodded, stoically, as if she too had contemplated a version of herself who 'had it coming'. Seth, perhaps – or her old self... Or her Shadowed self. "Yeah, I have no idea if I was just the 'nearest' counterpart. We don't even have...

    Leona snorted. Yeah, Gladion really did resemble his partner right now. That one earned another light thump on the shoulder. "I dunno what else is different. Probably all sorts of stuff, honestly – eevee gender is just the main one I know about. Also the thing with Rui, obviously – fucking...

    "Non-binary? Like, flesh-and-blood as opposed to computers 'n' shit, or—?" Then after a moment, the autotranslation seemed to kick in. "Oh, like, not one thing or the other. People can do that? Huh... Neat." Gladion would be able to see Leona neatly file that one away in the back of her head to...

    Leona gave Gladion a grin that was somewhere between a smirk and a look of sincere sympathy. She clicked her tongue in a commiserating sort of way at appropriate moments, and nodded approvingly at others. "Thought you said being earnest would kill ya," she deadpanned, with a grin. "That's a...

    Leona snorted, and cuffed Gladion about the shoulder. "Pfft, no way you're that easy to kill. I haven't even said anything really embarrassing yet. This shit is practically surface level, I haven't even got into anything all that personal. You sound like a former edgy teen in recovery. We have...

    Leona made a gesture somewhat like an awkward shrug. 'Brain chemistry'? Maybe, but who knew? Yikes! The Lycanroc pulled a begrudging grin of approval. "Yeah, that's fair 'nuff, kid. It's not like I'd let cops tell me what to do with the Shadow 'mon I snatched – and purifying them kinda proves...

    Regardless of Gladion's self-conscious overthinking, his jokes... landed. Leona snerked and chuckled in turn, apparently responding well to his sense of humour. (Big success, Gladion – you have achieved the unethical objective of manipulating someone into being in a better mood! Well done.)...

    Leona snorted. "You too, huh? I can smell 'trainer' all over you, y'know. Hell, it's in the eyes." Her little maintenance project forgotten, the wolf stood to walk towards the centre of the little plaza, where sun would fall on her fur. She nodded, almost to herself. "Yeah. I know I've not got...

    Leona listened attentively, and frowned. Thoughts tumbled behind her eyes. Gladion was talking about a way home – or at least a chance to get even with whoever ordered her summoning. "I'm in," she said, after a moment's consideration. Reading Gladion's expression, she forced a smirk...

    Leona pulled away from her task – tinkering with some kind of water pump, by the look of it – and turned her attention to Gladion. "Yeah, I got a minute," she replied, in a flat affect. "Mm. Hi, Gladion." That was all. It wasn't like despair was dripping from her mouth or anything, she just...

    Leona smiled faintly. As the wind tousled her hair, it seemed for a moment as if there ought to be someone at her side... "Heh... I suppose I can shoot the breeze a while longer," she relented. "There's this one thing that comes to mind, I guess – the shadow boss of Cipher had a pair of sons...

    "Heh... I sure did." Leona shifted to look sidelong at Leaf, leaning casually on one forelimb. Since her recovery from Shadowfication, she wasn't just less jittery, she was practically mellow. Confident, relaxed, a little cocky. Just less performatively showy than Seth. "Mind you, we're pretty...

    Seth dramatically cracked his neck and knuckles. "You know it. Short of getting put through a wormhole back to my planet, I'll be there to put my boot up that guy's ass." He glanced at his un-shoed hindpaw. "Figure of speech. You know what I mean." Leona snorted – it was so strange to hear...

    Seth reclined in his sunny spot – a comfy beanbag on a pueblo's rooftop terrace – with his paws behind his head, and scoffed. "'Course. Heh, what do you take me for? After the drubbings we've been giving them this side of the void, and after this next one, I'll fuckin' clean house back...

    Still breathing hard from exertion, Leona nodded forcefully, eyes wide with adrenaline. "We're doing this," she barked We, not 'I'. Something she was used to saying as a trainer, maybe... The wolf didn't linger. She just stepped forward, through the opening door. Sinopa waited on the other...

    "Ye— yeah! I'll fuckin'— I'll fuckin' get you—!" Leona took another solid – super-effective – whack from the Rapidash's flank. Stumbled – recovered. Pushed harder— Leaf just about reached the silt-and-sand rivershore, when the Lycanroc barrelled fully into her, sending them both crashing into...

    Leona took the hit with a yelp, not expecting an attack mid-race. To her credit she rallied at once, tumbling back onto her feet and sprinting to close the distance – head down, tail back, paws pounding the dry earth. Her fur glowed as she surged forward in an attack— "—Gyaah!" Leona used...

    Leona actually laughed at Leaf's playful juke, and chased after her with intense, deeply competitive focus. This was a wolf who liked to win, after all – and damn but she was fast. She didn't even spare the breath to yell trash-talk! The pueblos parted to allow a shallow-sloping ramp up and out...

    For a few seconds there, Leona had been staring down at a fatal drop, and the escape it represented. But as Leaf talked – about the freedom of the open wild, letting loose for fun, the blowing wind and setting sun – Leona looked up. And she saw the joys she'd been searching for in Leaf's face...
