Riu sighed and shook his head in amusement. "Yeah, pretty much.
It's a wonder she's not dead yet." He sighed, following after
Mudkip. He crouched down and dragged Mel back onto the couch,
dropping her on the cushions. "Do you have any family?" He
asked curiously. "No pressure to answer, of course."
Mudkip shook his head sadly. "Uh no...my mom was killed in an
experiment with Aether. We were forced to leave our home so I don't
know how my dad is" he said quietly.
(I don't think too much has happened? The Mudkip from Aether is
back, chilling at Mel's house with Riu. The Mudkip wants to help
them take down Aether, and Riu's like "k fam". I'm not sure what's
going on with anyone else)
"ARCEUS--" Mel rolled off the couch again, hitting the ground with
a thud and a groan. "Someone answer the door please." She groaned,
facedown on the living room floor. The pain in her arm had almost
vanished (Giratina must be magic, she doubted she could heal
herself that fast).
"Oh no, they found out I was the one who stole the.. the.. Uh..
The thing! Whatever will I do?" Riu gasped, opening the door.
Mira raced in, screaming and beating against her throat to generate
a noise that could only be described as a war-hungry Spongebob
laugh. She followed Riu behind the couch.
Riu shrieked and flung a pillow at Mira, vaulting over the couch
and sprinting into the kitchen. "HOW DOES ONE MAKE THAT NOISE
THAT IS NOT NORMAL OH MY GOD--"
"Acreus," Mel wheezed, creating some sort of blanket fort.
(I am trying so hard to make that noise irl omfg-)
"PILLOWS! MY ONLY WEAKNESS!" Mira flopped onto the couch
dramatically, the back of her hand resting on her forehead and the
other arm hanging off of the side of the couch. "WHAT A WORLD! WHAT
A WOOORLD!"
