🎊:  Which is your favorite muse?

i think celeste! she’s my favorite to draw because coloring is my favorite part of drawing, and personality-wise she has so much space to grow which makes her super fun to work with

Glow@Alex: "Why do you live in a hole? Wouldn't it be nicer above ground," glow asked with the bluntness only found in young kids.

Alex: “you see… we somewhat are trying to lay low. We don’t want to draw attention to ourselves, mostly because Shadow doesn’t want anybody trying to hurt him if they find out he’s a Demon even though he flaunts himself around and contradicts what he wants… but whatever. Plus there’s always the threat of humans coming and trying to catch us. But, I don’t really mind hanging out in here. We are surrounded by a beautiful forest, and it’s easy to leave. This cave is just like a little house! I made this cave myself and can add any additions at any time, and it gives us privacy from the community in the forest! I couldn’t ask for anything more. It’s not as bad when you have as many pillows as we do.. and it doesn’t get too hot in the summer!!!”

“Of course, it’s not like I know for sure it’ll work. But I have solid reason to suspect it will.”

His horns light up with Psychic, and he floats something over out of one of his boxes, which were pressed into the back corner of the room. It’s a ripped page from a book, with crude scribblings etched into a blank space. Information, clearly, but it’s hard to tell what it means. Luckily Anthony seems perfectly able to decipher it; it’s his own writing, after all.

“See, after asking everyone how long they’ve been here, I noticed a pattern.” He gestures to some numbers on the page. “Year-long gaps in-between each prisoner. But!” He gestures to the numbers again. “More specifically, different amounts of time between each new capture by the Warden; it’s not uniform. So why, I wondered, was there a difference?”

He sets the paper on the ground and reads some of it aloud. “Anthony, Girafarig (me), 18 years in the tower. Tarrai, Seviper, 15 years in the tower. Goldie, Pikachu, 5 years in the tower. And Gravity, Musharna, just arrived.” He glances up. “All recently updated to the current time. I had to wonder....why was there only a three-year gap between me and Tarrai, but a ten-year gap between her and Goldie? And then, after talking with them more, I figured out the difference. It’s proportional. Specifically, proportional to how long it takes each of us to stop testing the barrier.” He stamps a hoof for emphasis.

He levitates the page back to his box, lifting it away from his tail as it attempts to bite it. “Which begs the question: why would she wait for that if the barrier is infallible? Is it possible that it can only take so much stress at a time, and she’s trying to lessen the risk of too much at once?”

The tail gives an excited nod. “Chomp, chomp chomp!”

Anthony nods, as if the limb had said something profound. “I think that if enough stress is put on it, from enough strong attacks, we could push it past its limit. The Victini is crucial, surely stronger than the rest of us, and a key part of this plan now that I know they’re here. They could put so much stress on the barrier. So much.”

Glow@Connor: “You used to be humans? You look like normal Pokémon to me. Are you some kind of ditto? I heard they can shapeshift, oh and mews too but I don’t think your one o those.” He tilts his head to look at the poochyena with curiosity. “I dun think I’ve heard of other kinds of shapeshiters.”

Connor: “...First of all, you haven’t heard of a Zorua? Second of all, not even I technically know the specifics of how we ended up like this. For all I know it was magic. But I can reassure you that at the moment I’m just a Poochyena”
