"So, you enjoy your research. Work well noted. Jumping to conclusions may not be your forte. Though your findings are incorrect. Our products have been tested to a high degree. They are perfectly safe."

"What a frustratingly inaccurate analysis. I would be pleased to show you far better examples of our work which will both reassure, and question your findings."

A small tale from a stranger is of little concern to him, he thinks. With their control over the media, even his foes have struggled to bring the truth to light... And he doesn't consider her a problem, either. Such is shown by Spinel simply brushing it all to the side, as he often does when confronted in such a manner.

"Those who lack skill may struggle at first. We do acknowledge, and warn about that. We are working to help even new trainers command Pokemon under the Strong Sphere. However, for now, some may be in over their head. Such is their problem to bear."

"But this is a little off topic. We are not in a location in which I may showcase the true skill needed to use our Strong Spheres."

Throwing his staff a few glances, Spinel waves them onward to continue their research into Area Zero.

"We had to gain permission in order to arrive here. It took some time as well. It's quite amusing that we've met with another so quickly."

"I do enjoy unraveling mysteries. Aside from rambling on with incorrect notes, do you have another reason why we should leave this place? Why, after all the effort I'm in no rush to depart. At least introduce yourself. I am the Director of Exceed. Spinel. You're more than welcome to join us if our efforts concern you."

[vixletserenity]

To each their own. There's no point in a debate here when that's not what the focus right now. Celeste put her notebook away and continued moving along as the intruder.

"I have no interest in re-entering the research field." She replied with a deadpan tone. She already fought to escape being groomed into the professor role of this region because of what information the young lady brought back her first venture into this place.

Much less for a corporation that could easily pay their way for access despite the iron fist approach of control the region had here. "Celeste." She introduces herself. "Former top researcher of the ground we're standing on."

Learning about the world around you and its mysteries was what Celeste spent a lot of time doing. Not for obligation of collecting data; for her own pleasure.

Knowledge; one of three main reasons why anyone would want to come to Area Zero. At least that's one thing that doesn't have to be pried out. Though interest in the Crater always had to have some precaution; having a director out here on their own without a team is extremely suspicious.

"Tell me then...." Celeste started to speak. That other voice in her head was also having interest in the conversation; and with a small nod permission was given. Strangely enough, Celeste had done a slightly playful pirouette. As if switching mental modes.

"What is it that you wish to know? What mystery are you wanting to uncover? Perhaps it is in relation to your device? How highly concentrated Terastal energy impacts the substance inside?" She asks before half opening her eyes. "Or is it all something you would rather keep on the down low..." There's a slight smirk on her face as she leaned forward as a verbally unspoken word escaped her lips.

Puppet.

[vixletserenity]

A voice can be heard from a distance. It's singing

"Looking at the starry sky, tears are like shooting stars Tell me that tomorrow, it'll all be okay The starry sky moves, doesn't it? It seems nice, I envy how it shines Love me forever! Please love me for eternity!"

Seems she's practicing.

[vixletserenity]

"Hey, Celeste?"

Oh, there's Aesen--and there's someone with him. It must be one of his other family members, considering how they seem to be staying by his side as they approach.

"If you don't have someone to spend Father's Day with, you're more than welcome to share our dad with us--Orion and I don't mind in the slightest."

Well this is a surprise. Celeste really didn't have much plans for the day. And to offer someone else's dad to be that for today...it's weird. She knows that this is sincerely, that she shouldn't fear being selfish when Aesen is openly asking if she wanted to join.

"S-Sure...!"

Celeste knows the guy, having talked in the past. So this isn't a complete stranger to her. And he would probably love it if Celeste joined in.

[vixletserenity]

@skullkxd: I’m so fuckin proud of you for sayin it like that

"I know I don't swear...because it ruins the image I have for myself. But having a pass for a day like this isn't too bad ri-right?"

[vixletserenity]

"...."

"Fuck my dad. I hate his guts."

"One may believe what they want. Science will always bring forward the truth once enough time is granted. Though while we are on such a subject, talks with a range of Academies are going well. And I am certain you'll be seeing more of our products there soon."

The shards are only a small part of what they wanted here. Information was valuable and Exceed were skilled in acquiring knowledge. It's very possible that they can further understand Laquium itself by studying the location.

"Commendable," he scoffed. "But regardless of what you think of us, it does not concern me."

"What does matter to me is what we can gain from our research here. There is so much untapped potential within this world, and we shall unravel it for all to see. I have no interest in the small minded who reject the splendour of science. Equally so, someone who thinks they can actually order us to leave. Utterly ridiculous. What harm, exactly, do you think we will cause?"

[vixletserenity]

Celeste could agree with keeping an open mind and expanding out what knowledge the world has for all living beings to share. Her connections with Blueberry Academy had already informed the young woman of the proposal of use.

Though Briar's pride and research leading to the creation of the prism inside the Terrarium so that Terastilization was possible would prove to be a difficult hurdle.

Tell why she would have a reason to demand removal? A chess piece that Celeste would rather keep to herself unless absolutely necessary. Even why she was here was up to question to him.

He is not entitled to that information.

Celeste opened her bag to get a journal she had kept with her at all times, flipping through its pages to find exactly what she needed.

"Upon first dosages of the Strong Sphere, a seeming boost to the physical and special strength of a Pokemon comes at the price of a user's Pokemon becoming somewhat aggressive. As increased dosages is given to the Pokemon, the aggression factor they express in lockstep also increases. To the point that Trainers who have high experience are seen to have difficulty of keeping their partner in check.

This aggression eventually surpasses that of Wild or Alpha Pokemon. A phenomena closely resembling that of human athletes that use performance enhancing steroids; commonly referred to as 'Roid Rage'. Multiple students have been injured mildly or severely to the point of hospitalization in attempts to calm their Pokemon.

Others report a change in peer's attitude; whether from battle losses or viewing their Pokemon as 'weak' from said losses. Choosing to abandon their Pokemon in search of 'stronger' Pokemon.

Physical symptoms are also visible due to prolonged usage.

Such as the feet of a Garganacl crackling under its own weight or added pressure to remain standing. While currently temporary with scarring, continued usage will most likely cause the cracks to be permanent. And with enough pressure or weight, breaking will occur."

She read from her journal before closing it.

"As the method of using the Strong Sphere is through a spray from where the substance is released, possible airborne effects to both Humans and Pokemon are limited. Further observation is needed."

⋆ · 𖤓 · ⋆ 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐘 𝐇𝐎𝐌𝐄 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐌𝐄 ··· a collection of soup gone cold and blankets shared, the intimacy of being cared for when you are at your worst. genre: romance, hurt and comfort, soft angst, domestic.

You're burning up. Don't argue with me. Get back in bed.

I made soup. It's not great. Eat it anyway.

You should have called me the moment you started feeling like this.

Stop trying to get up. There is nothing on this earth that needs you upright right now.

I found three blankets and a hot water bottle. Pick your combination.

You look terrible. I mean that with so much love.

Let me take your temperature. Stop being difficult about the thermometer.

I cancelled everything. Don't apologize. I wanted to be here.

You fell asleep mid-sentence. I stayed anyway. I hope that's okay.

Drink the tea. Yes, all of it. I'll make more.

I've been checking on you every hour. You keep telling me to go home. I keep not going.

Your voice sounds awful. Rest it. We can talk tomorrow.

I'm not going anywhere. Stop thanking me for staying.

You hate being taken care of. I know. Do it for me anyway.

The fever broke. I don't think you know how relieved I am right now.

Sleep. I'll be right here. I'll wake you up if anything changes.

I brought your favourite thing from the place on the corner. Don't cry. Please don't cry.

You're a terrible patient and somehow I still want to be the one doing this.

I know you think you're being a burden. You are not a burden.

Let me sit with you. I don't need to talk. I just don't want you to be alone.

You tried to make your own tea and you could barely stand up. Sit down. I've got it.

I've seen you strong. This doesn't make you weak. It just makes you human.

You smell like fever and you still somehow look like everything to me.

Lay your head here. Right here. I've got nowhere I need to be.

I brought every movie you've ever mentioned. We have time.

You're mumbling in your sleep. I'm not going to tell you what you said.

I changed the sheets while you were in the shower. Don't make it weird.

You need to eat something real. I know you don't want to. Eat something real.

I've been sitting in this chair for four hours. I'd do it four more.

Stop apologizing for being sick. People get sick. Let me help you.

Your hands are cold. Give them here. I'll warm them up.

I found the medicine in the back of the cabinet. Take it. All of it. Don't negotiate.

You're not inconveniencing me. Taking care of you is exactly where I want to be.

I didn't know you got like this when you were sick. Softer. I like knowing this about you.

You asked for me. Out of everyone, you asked for me. I haven't stopped thinking about that.

The heating pad is on the lowest setting. Tell me if you need it warmer.

I'm not leaving until your temperature is normal. Make your peace with that.

You cried a little when the soup was too hot to eat yet. I pretended not to notice.

I've never seen you let anyone take care of you before. I'm honoured. I mean that.

Your hair is a mess. Can I? Is that okay? Let me just — there.

You keep saying you're fine every time I check and you are so obviously not fine.

This is the third night in a row. I'm not going anywhere. Stop looking at me like that.

You're delirious and still trying to be funny. It's working. Please stop, I'm worried about you.

I learned how to make your mother's recipe. It took three attempts. Don't tell her.

There's nowhere I'd rather be than right here, even like this. Especially like this.

You always take care of everyone else. Just this once, let someone take care of you.

I left the light on in the hall in case you woke up scared. I remember you mentioned that once.

I'm here. I've got you. Just rest. Everything else can wait.

As far as how many Terapagoses are there, on this blog there's 19 remaining. One of each Type, with Alexandrite as the one for Stellar.

💝A Sprigatito plush made of mochi fabric

Give my muse(s) gifts! Send 💝+ a description of the gift -accepting

Celeste looked at oblong egg-like appearance of the plush in her hands. The fabric itself while soft to the touch gave a strange clammy but in the dry sense in the palm of her hands. Yet clenching it, there was that feeling similar to that of a stress ball or of a similar item in the same vain.

"Thanks!" Celeste replied while adjusting her arms to keep the plush snug and protected.

She's not one to just take things at face value. She will go out of her way to research and develop her own opinion on something.

[velvet-voiced]

@vixletserenity from here.

"Research. That is all. We have acquired much already, and are going to continue our efforts. After all, we are a company of science. So I can assure you our work is for the benefit of us all."

Spinel only shrugged, placing the crystal handed to him into his pocket.

"I highly doubt that. You've most likely been mislead by our enemies, who seek to ruin our good name. It doesn't surprise me. However, you'll find our company's reputation is impeccable, and our products are safe."

They are looking into the location's relation to the Terastal phenomenon, but as they continue, they are discovering even more topics of interest. As such, Spinel doesn't plan to ever leave it alone.

"Have you heard of what we, at Exceed, like to say?"

"We are here to help people, and Pokemon alike. I take that very seriously. And uncovering the secrets here is important. So, no, we shall not leave."

"It is a shame that they are still trying to place mistrust in us, but their attempts are worthless."

[vixletserenity]

There was a part of her that wanted to laugh after witnessing the other take a shard and place it in his pocket. If shards are what he's after, coming to Area Zero is very inefficient in collecting them. The Tera Dens and battling the Pokemon inside; especially the more difficult ones, were more worth your time if that was all he wanted.

That says something if he refuses to try above ground and went head first to the one and only restricted area of the region for Tera Shards.

They? Who in the world is he meaning by 'they'?

Her expression switched to a rather deadpan one at the idea that someone had to convince her to believe in something.

"I came to that conclusion on my own; which is from my observations of battles that take place at the Academy and the demonstrations your company does both on the street and at your facilities for your sphere." Celeste replied coldly. "If you are believing that an outside force has influenced my opinion, you are sorely mistaken."
