• 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?

    "Who're we eating? The lizard? Can we, I don't know, not do that?" The bleeding from his ear was already starting to ebb after eating the berry. Should've made it hurt less, but any gains on that front were being outpaced by the receding of the adrenaline rush. They weren't actually going to...

    Fucking... Nolan? Gladion hadn't been expecting that one. Didn't seem like the kinda guy who'd have it in him unless someone else ordered him to, but the guy ordering him around was supposed to be Gladius, who... well, okay, maybe wouldn't be opposed to getting shot in the head but certainly...

    Dave's voice cut through the quiet. Gladion did as he was told, and kept thinking aloud as he ate. Thanks. Part of him wanted to ask if that meant it wouldn't heal correctly. Seemed like letting something like that heal 'naturally' was gonna leave it damaged, like an unset bone. He didn't know...

    Gladion reeled back. He could feel air rush though his beak, but if he yelled he couldn't hear it. The pain and Betel tagging the bullet in the pillar came before the faint, dull sound of the gunshot's sonic boom reached him. Could've been info on how far the shot was taken from. It was lost on...

    Alexandria Shining Congress – Main Lobby

    Gladion stagged back as an unseen attacker shot Gladius through a window, snapping him out of the duel and back into the reality surrounding them. “Wait, no, I’m supposed to—” But there was no time to talk. The moment he realized a follow-up was coming, he threw himself into a Quick Attack...

    Gladion averted his eyes from the attack, unable or unwilling to look directly at it. He clawed that the paving stones beneath his feet looking for purchase, carving long gashes in the settled snow as he struggled against the dual forces of Gladius' attack and gravity just to remain standing...

    Alexandria Shining Congress – Main Lobby

    Once he’d gotten over the shock of being sent flying off the roof and hauled himself up off the ground, Gladion grinned back at the Zoroark, the man who’d replicated the Null experiment on Forlas, the director of the CDE, the left atrium of the Coven’s rotten heart. This was a fight he'd been...

    Gladion's shadows seethed beneath his skin when he heard that word. "A good person. A better person, if you weren't. Loyalty's just ripping out your own brain and replacing it with subservience. People like Arthur and some like your Gramps have loyal folks, too. It's not a virtue." (One of...

    Gladion ducked out of the way of the incoming body press. A softball. She really didn't want to fight, which maybe shouldn't have been a surprise, but given the amount of corruption going on everywhere it was still kind of remarkable. "Sam, listen, I'd love nothing more than to thrash Arthur's...

    Gladion closed his eyes and tucked in his head as he pushed past the rocks Sam had set in the perimeter of the gardens. For once, his RKS System put up no resistance as he forced his type through it. No sparks or fanfare. "You remember when we met? Back then, I probably would've been content to...

    When Arthur arrived, Gladion… hesitated. On one hand, Articuno was clearly out of it. He didn’t know what they were doing, and they were clearly dangerous. On the other hand, if Arthur died here… that was good, right? There was no way in hell he could stop Articuno, but it felt wrong to...

    "Articuno!" Gladion shouted out over Sam's head, "You said you had this under control!" But there was no point arguing, was there? At least, not by bemoaning that they weren't supposed to be acting like this. From his experience with corruption, Articuno probably felt like they were in control...

    Gladion’d stepped off the sandy sparring pitch once he started to realize that his doppelgänger wasn’t gonna show. He’d stashed Gladius’ dossier somewhere safe before heading into enemy territory. Figured it’d be stupid to bring ‘em all right back to Gladius given he’d clearly not wanted to...

    Hearing that voice made Gladion’s heart rate spike, readying for an attack. None came. Of course Matthias was here. Why wouldn’t he be? This was where all there Coven sycophants met up, so it would be weirder if Matthias didn’t show. That posed a danger to him. Matthias knew why he was here...

    Alexandria Shining Congress – Main Lobby

    The Shining Congress got under Gladion’s skin almost immediately. This was a mistake. He’d been right the first time: He should never have come here. Never should’ve changed his mind. The simple fact was that he didn’t belong in places like this. He’d tried desperately to do so before only to...
