3rd Quest [Video, after completing Heads or Tails]

[It's finally a sunny, warm day, hot but not terribly humid, and perfect for laying out bolts of felt to dry after May's deluge of rain. Or, well, to let them dry after being cleaned to ensure there's no mold or mildew or anything gross trying to grow on the fabric Firoza has worked so hard to make. And as she sits in the middle of this fabric drying in the sun, her mind wanders towards her efforts with Laios and Emmett to locate a missing Pokemon. The eerie feeling, the thought that came unbidden, the state that Zweilous was found in...

She has to talk about this. She has to express this. And when she comes in over the Grumpearls, you can get that sense of concern and confusion settling around her, making the sunny day a bit dimmer as a result.]

I don't recall Zweilous having gone missing before our arrival here. Has this Pokemon wandered off before?

[She hums, little Nidoran brow furrowed. It's important to note that she's finally started to keep her bandana pulled down again, and her right cheek (her right) has a wispy scar trailing across it, like tendrils of flame licking out. It's all healed, it doesn't look grotesque, but wow it sure is there!]

There's just...a feeling I had. "No, no, not again"...and I couldn't shake how familiar it was, to know you are missing a name and face, but you cannot put it together. Though how it can be familiar I'm not sure...

[Tap tap tap goes a paw, impatient as she thinks.]

Have any of you felt something similar, from a mission? Or am I overthinking this?

[No slash??? Well, at least she isn't ruling it out completely. Thirty Winters continues to be what A.B.A considers a Good Friend™]

Oh... Well, should your ideas fail, then we can bring about punishment.

[bladeofnymeia]

Only if there is no other way to assist.

[Firoza Istus - the person who goes around the enemies to avoid killing them needlessly. I mean, we got places to go, can't just kick the shins in on every random beastie you meet.]

Apologies if that seems harsh. I am just...more accustomed to helping first, whenever possible. And sometimes that does include violence. But usually to some other party.

[quirkynote]

[Blink.]

Was...that harsh?

[bladeofnymeia]

I felt like I was being harsh.

[Because sometimes people have different ways to do things!! And they're not necessarily wrong, just...different, and that's going to cause friction.]
