a bad egg! [m]

"I... I did...?"

Mitsuru blinked. She waited for a moment, tense, as though the second she let her guard down, everything would go to heck. But eventually, she mustered her courage and stepped forth, beyond the tall and sturdy protections of her Garganacl. First, she poked what remained of the ghostly egg with her foot. Then again, then again. Finally, after she was all but certain that no ghost remained, she crouched down and picked up a piece of the pitch black eggshell.

It seemed that the egg had hatched into nothing. Which was... Not something she'd ever seen before. It would've been worrying, if she wasn't so relieved about the sordid ordeal being over.

"I did... I mean, of course I did!" Lady Crane suddenly straightened up, a faux-confident smile on her face as she turned back to face Gracie Mae. "A simple exorcism, really. I've done hundreds just like it."

Idly, she stashed the shard of eggshell in her kimono, before approaching the breeder.

"Now, would that be all you require of me, Miss Mae?"

And now, onto the fourth!

With keys, 'pedes, and cogs all hers, Mitsuru was feeling good. Better than she had after her last few visits, anyway. She hadn't even suffered any major injury or ended up in any embarrassing situation! But she still had one Safari Ball left, and her time was ticking down. She didn't have long left to find herself her last catch. So, scooping up her Klink, she quickly began looking around. There was no time to waste. After all, she couldn't just expect the perfect Pokemon to fall out of the sky, now could she?

Nor could she expect it to run at her at forty miles per hour and hit her head on.

"Cyyyyyyyyyyyyyy... Cliiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.... ZARRRRRRR--"

"EEP!"

CRASH! Lizard hit woman at high speeds, and both of them were sent tumbling and skidding across the ground. And, amidst the chaos of the impact, Mitsuru's last remaining Safari Ball slipped from her hands and caught on the tail of the Cyclizar. As it vanished in the flash of red light, that left the mystic to continue her thrashing and smashing alone, before she finally flopped to a halt.

Hey, but at least shake, shake, shake, CLICK, right! That was pretty good!

Or at least, she'd probably think it was pretty good when she woke up. Until then, she'd have to wait for one of the Safari Wardens to drag her and her haul back to civilisation...

With that disgusting, vile, awful, no good, very bad Dunsparce out of the way, Mitsuru was free to continue on her way. And it didn't take long for her to move to greener pastures!

Metaphorically. Literally, they were the same amount of green, maybe a shade duller or so. Either way, she quickly stumbled upon a humble Klink floating about. Much like the Klefki from before! Except, well, she had a lot more use for a keychain than she did for spare gears. Still, even if she didn't have use for them, SOMEBODY would, right? Maybe she could trade them to a mechanic for... Er... A Cutiefly, maybe? Or, like... Maybe a Vulpix?

Something like that.

So, grabbing her third Safari Ball, Mitsuru made her third throw and her third capture of her third trip to the Safari.

Ew. Dunsparce? Stinky! Plus she already had a Dudunsparce that she bought from the Black Market (OOC), so if she really wanted a normal Dunsparce, she would just buy one of those! Idiot! Fool! Craven dog! Never show this to me again!

With that display of sheer disgust, Mitsuru continued walking, walking and walking until she found exactly a Klink. Nothing more, and nothing less.

With a jingle and a jangle, a click and a clack, and a few bounces off the ground, Mitsuru Kagami was now the proud owner of a brand new Klefki!

...Okay, maybe "proud" was a strong word. "Content" was probably more fitting. Either way, she was happy! But she still had plenty of balls left to throw, and not much time to throw them. So, with a napkin in one hand and her newly full Safari Ball in the other, she quickly wiped off the dirt before stashing it in her purse and continuing on.

What followed that was a dry spell, walking along the paths and seeing not much of anything. Though, she supposed that wasn't strange, was it? What with it being summer and all, this place was probably packed with people making catches, so there probably weren't that many Pokemon in stock this time of year. Yeah, that made sense! Probably! Not that she had a business degree or anything, but it all seemed to add up. Not that she had a math degree or anything, but it just seemed like good business. Not that she had a--

Szzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Ooo, a Sizzlipede! Admittedly, Mitsuru wasn't much for bug types, but she saw this really great article in a magazine about how people in Galar used these little guys to warm their homes during the colder months. And if she could use it to cut costs on her heating during the winter? Then she'd be well in the money!

Not that she was in the money, but... Uh... Anyway! Catch time!

But while she was liable to miss an electric squirrel here and there, there was one thing that she absolutely couldn't miss, and that was the sound of jingling keys.

And sure enough, floating along the path was none other than the eponymous key pokemon, Klefki. Named so for both its klef, and its key. She just HAD to get one of these! Imagine how convenient it would be, having a little living keychain to keep and sort all your keys. She wouldn't even have to go digging through her handbag to get them...

A-and it was also probably a very good Pokemon, too! Probably.

So, with her mind all but made up, Mitsuru lined up a throw, and made a very sloppy but good enough capture attempt on the fairy and steel type.

So eager was she to forget about her self loathing and to move on to catching Pokemon, that Mitsuru completely missed the shiny Pachirisu perched on a nearby fence post. Yep. She walked right past it. Didn't even see it.

Haha. Oof.

Back, back, back again!

For the third month in a row, Mitsuru had failed to find herself a friend group, or a better hobby, or any reason whatsoever to not go to the Safari. At this point, it was starting to get a little depressing. She was paying rent in Slateport, the capital of Hoenn, a place brimming with festivals and nightlife and more. And why? So she could catch a train to Route 121 every month and throw Pokeballs at Pokemon trained to let themselves get caught? Jeez...

...Okay, maybe it was more than a little depressing. Still! With her head held high, Mitsuru marched forward, ready for another adventure full of fun times and fresh Pokemon!

"Well..."

Yes, she was? No, she wasn't? What is she supposed to say here? Is it better to be honest and admit that he's the sole reason she came here, or to lie and act like this was all one big coincidence? Faced with a difficult choice with murky outcomes, she instead takes the third option and doesn't answer at all.

"It's complicated."

It's both true, false, and put it lightly. But she isn't given much time to interrogate herself over it, as the stranger throws her a second curveball and puts her drink on his tab. Her eyes go wide for a single second, before they blink shut.

"Just a glass of red wine, please." She orders, only to immediately catch herself. "Nothing too expensive! Just, um, a normal glass of red wine, thank you."

Okay, well, that was her fault. She probably should've been more specific, huh?

"I mean... Dreams where you're yourself, but you're not yourself?" Lady Crane attempted to explain. "When you're still you, but you're living a completely different life in a completely different place with completely different people."

Was that the best way to explain it? Mitsuru sure hoped so, because she couldn't come up with anything better off the top of her head. Still, it sounded good when she said it, so she hoped that it'd sound good when Yuina heard it, too.

She hoped.

"Or, maybe you're a different person, but you've living your same life? Or you're going through unfamiliar situations in a way that feels normal? Or... Well, I think you get the idea."

a bad egg! [m]
POSTED ON Jun 12, 2024 0:45:07 GMT

For a moment, it really seemed like the Salt Cure had worked. Like the cursed spirit had been exorcised. Like it would really be that simple.

But really, when were things ever so easy?

The very moment that Lady Crane let her guard down was the same moment the poltergeist made its terrifying resurgence. Darkness overtook the room as the egg began to move once more, shivering and quaking as though it were going to explode. Heck! Mitsuru took a cautious step back, while her Garganacl stepped forth.

"Alright... Alright! Very well! If you won't give up that easily, then I won't either! Seimei, hit it with another Salt--"

Before she could finish her command, she was interrupted by a sharp CRACK! All of a sudden, the egg ceased its violent movements, coming to an eerie stillness. Mitsuru just stood there, stunned, unsure of what was happening and what she was supposed to do about it.

And then, a piece of eggshell fell away.
