    Superstitious?

    Like Gardevoir Master I do something when I throw a Pokeball. I tap the A button and hold it, turn the volume down and look away, focusing my attention on something else and ignoring the game. If I don't the Pokemon breaks free, and I can't catch anything. As for Bloody Mary...In third grade...

    Two Pairs

    Eye still twitching from Alex's comment, Carrie strode forward, adjusting the strap across her shoulder. "Hardy har har, we need to move. My rock-sleeping and Sonjo's lack of an internal alarm's made us late, so if you haven't had breakfast yet, tough luck. We're moving." She moved past...

    Two Pairs

    ((OC: Time-skip FTW.)) Carrie was rudely awakened the next morning by the creeping sunlight from the window. It hit her face--or, more specifically, her once blissfully-closed eyes--and prodded her to consciousness. She frowned and squirmed a bit, bringing a dragging hand up to shield her...

    Two Pairs

    Carrie rolled her eyes and headed back into the Center, asking Nurse Joy to give them two rooms. "Sorry, boys, but you'll have to share a room. Can't have you spending the night in my room." Admittedly, her room would be far smaller, meant for a single occupant rather than many, but it was...

    Two Pairs

    Carrie retrieved her Pokemon--Jolteon having been placed back into his Pokeball for a good, long rest. She followed the others out, looking at them oddly. "You all seem revving to go. Even though it's half past nine at night. Are you sure you'd rather keep going?" She shrugged herself...

    The Hunted

    Morlaina smiled thinly and turned over onto her side, burying her head in the back cushions of the couch. "'Night," She called out to the fairy; voice muffled heavily by the thick material over her mouth. It wasn't long before she was asleep, however tense she was.

    "There's no way your Charizard could possibly be worse than Mischief. There's a reason he's named that." Carrie shook her head, leaning against one of the few stretches of wall that weren't plastered with diagrams, posters and plaques. "Mischief can only be supplicated by croissants. And...

    Two Pairs

    Carrie's grin was mysterious. "Even if there was, you can't possibly expect me to reveal it to you after just meeting you, can you? I don't mind you tagging along behind, but you might want to clear it with Sonjo. I doubt he'll mind, though. He's a pretty open person." She sighed and...

    Two Pairs

    She cracked a mirthless smile. "I don't, do I? Just as well. It keeps idiots away from me." Carrie continued to watch the two enjoy their time in the museum (Sonjo and Riolu gazing awestruck at the displays, Michael apparently tormenting the staff members by devaluing their jobs with his...

    Two Pairs

    Carrie rolled her eyes, silently following after them. She had left all her Pokemon with Joy, hoping for the Nurse to take extra time with Jolteon. She paid for her own ticket and followed, not even bothering to look around. "Gods, I've seen this so many times." She groaned quietly to...

    The Hunted

    ((OC: Sorry, been busy with work lately.)) Morlaina turned her back on Illumil as well; changing into the nightgown she had tossed on the floor earlier. She brushed off some invisible lint and flopped onto the couch, staring at the ceiling. "One last thing. Be sure to see the window locked...

    Two Pairs

    Carrie shrugged, following after him. Jolteon squirmed slightly in her arms, and she cooed to him to make the dog relax. She stepped inside the Center, passing the automatic doors. The inside was cool, and there were a few other Trainers about, settling down for the night, gathering their...

    Works of Nature

    Beth frowned, putting her hands up to shield her face from the sun. Crest followed, glad to be out of the dark and back in the sun. "You get a lot of weirdos in the world. He was just one of many. To think he gave up the family tradition that easily...It's hard to believe." She shrugged...

    Works of Nature

    He shrugged. "Don't know...how..." Beth looked around the room. Nothing had changed; it was still the Asian style it had been before. "Did your father keep a journal or something? Anything that could tell what you could do to pick up the tradition again?" He thought, squinting his eyes...

    Works of Nature

    They reached the exit sooner than Beth had expected, and with relief she pushed the wall scroll aside, taking a deep breath. The air below was musty and humid, and the man's stench of filth and alcohol only enhanced the unpleasantness. She deposited him on the nearest cushion, but remained...
