    Gladion had relaxed noticeably in that way that, in Jade's experience, all trainers did when getting to reminisce about their team. Including her. "My friend had a Sneasel--Weavile now--she's a total gremin," Jade said with a grin. "My first was Swift, a Pidgey. We met when I was just a kid...

    Jade leaned back in her seat. "We can talk to each other now, but that wasn't always the case, so... I get what you mean. My first partner Pokemon and I met way before I was any good at understanding him." Several years of having to read each other without words... it felt so long ago. "So...

    Jade couldn't help smiling--it was obvious how much Gladion cared from the tone of his voice. "Nine was in a similar spot--there were some problems that come from being a hybrid." She paused, and then added, "It sounds like you two make a good pair." Her eyes fell to the floor, tail swishing...

    Jade relaxed a bit further in her seat. "Yeah, he is. He's called Nine, and he's a Pikachu hybrid. They, um." She was already well past the point of being discreet. "They mixed his DNA with Zapdos, before he was born. To learn more about Legendary energy signatures, or something--I think...

    Laura and Odette both? And he'd mentioned Nova earlier... no wonder he was so cautious. (Did... did Jade's world have one too?) Jade tapped her paws together. "Well, that's not too unrelatable, aha. I first got involved in stuff back home because I rescued an experiment and kept him...

    Jade nodded. "Yeah, she told me that she'd been trying to rescue her Purrloin from some kind of lab. So, uh, that's three of us. Plus Nova's whole deal." And then Leaf had said that she rescued one of her Pokemon from some sort of experimentation by Team Rocket, so... maybe there really was...

    "Cinnabar, huh..." Jade mused. "Well, not that far off--still Kanto, just Viridian. Er, that is, he was made in Celadon, but broke free and wrecked a few blocks in Viridian." She wasn't sure if any of these city names would mean much to Gladion--it wasn't like she could pretend to remember...

    Jade leaned her head against a paw. "Well, it's not like you could have known that anyone here would recognized you from their world. But... I know what you mean--I know I'd be feeling more self-conscious if anyone here knew a version of me." Why Gladion? Was there something about him that...

    Something about hearing it said in such a blunt, straightforward way--Jade couldn't help letting out a small laugh. "Same. It's really freaking weird, and I don't know how I'll ever get used to it." It felt good to laugh at the absurdity of it. Helped ease some of the tension. "The funny...

    The Null project... so that was what'd led to the making of those chimeras... or Nulls, she guessed. And, Gladion--or some version of him--tended to show up alongside the project, no matter the world. But then... Then he'd come right out and said it, and part of Jade wanted to ask how he'd...

    Jade nodded distantly. "Right, yeah. Brisa didn't come up that much either, so I guess it makes sense." Was it worth mentioning? That as crazy as it sounded, Jade knew the previous hero? She was starting to lose all baseline of what counted as crazy with this group. In any case, Gladion's...

    Jade blinked in surprise. "Oh wait, so--that species does exist here after all? Even though it's... like that?" Artificial, she'd meant to say artificial, but she'd got caught up in thinking back to the conversation with Nova, and how that type of chimera was actually robotic on his world...

    Jade jolted slightly at the sound of her name and then turned to see one of the chimeras--Gladion, she was pretty sure. She couldn't help feeling suddenly self-conscious about the way she'd been halfway to dozing off while reading again. Then again, she had been looking for a chance to chat...

    Jade's ears perked up. "Well, my first Pokemon was Swift--he's a Pidgeot now--and we go way back, he's always had my back, the whole journey. Then we met Firestorm the day we set out--he used to be a bit of a tryhard showoff when he was a Charmeleon, but he's mellowed out a lot since then...

    It felt good to have something to look forward to here, even if it didn't end up amounting to anything--it was worth it to feel like they weren't just sitting still. Jade gave a bit of a sheepish grin. "Ah, well, I was sort of aimless as a trainer." At least, before everything went down with...

    Powerless. That day on the burning mountainside where Entei was captured. The night that Midnight Stadium went up in flames along with half of Rebellion. The day that the League had branded them all criminals. And yet, this felt different. They hadn't been beaten, they hadn't even started...

    Jade hummed. "If anything, it could be good to know what the Legendaries are like here." In case they ever had to go up against one, as unthinkable as that was in their current state... Jade idly ran a claw along the wooden ridges of the table. "I just... I want to feel like I'm doing...

    "The Wandering Light became a legend..." Jade murmured. It was a surreal idea. Definitely not the case for any of the legends she knew back home. "Maybe the Escarpa could point us their way. Er, if we manage to get on their good side, that is." Jirachi.... Jade didn't know much about...

    That got Jade's attention. "The Escarpa have a patron? That never got mentioned in the newspapers." Not the newspapers seemed to care much about painting an accurate picture of them... "Or, wait, was that the... 'Wandering Light' or whatever? I think I saw that get mentioned, but had no idea...

    "'Saints,' huh..." Jade mused. "Yeah, the legends had a lot of names back home too. Guardians, Titans, Gods...." Monsters. There was a certain starry optimism to the way Koamaru talked about them. Almost like he wanted to believe in them, even if it was hard. "I hadn't thought about if the...
