Danny: 	Danny is stealing a bike!
Kaorin Sakura: 	Team Oak had finally made it to Viridian City after Kia had absorbed some odd Black Jewel and Venec carried her through the forest and route 2 all the way to the Professor's lab, whereas Cepheus and Danny followed closely behind. Everyone made it safely to Viridian City! Welcome to the World of Pokémon!
	Jupiter: 	Everyone is CLEARLY afraid to say something, so should I just say something to break the ice?
Venec_Myles: 	waiting for danny to finish bike stealing I thought
	Danny: 	"Oh!" Is totally stealing a bike.
	Danny: 	Using his muscles to break the chain and lock.
	Jupiter: 	way to thief, you sleepyhead
	Danny: 	i'm still waking up!
Kaorin Sakura: 	The chain resists your attempts with ease.
	Danny: 	Danny might try and use a strength check!
* Danny rolls: 1d20-6 => 20 - 6 = 14
	Danny: 	natural 20
Kaorin Sakura: 	Danny suddenly becomes ripped and muscular and grips the chain like a man on a mission, steadying himself before ripping the chain into pieces. Only thing left of the chains are the dust scattered across the ground around him.
	Danny: 	"YEAH!!!!"
	Danny: 	Danny felt the ripple of green muscle all over his head. And then he ran off with the bike.
* Child catches Danny breaking her bike with incredible strength.
	Child: 	O.O
	Child: 	"WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!"
	Kia: 	Kia picks up the lileep and montions for meloetta to follow her into the adjoining room.
	Larry: 	Larry hops in the basket. "Quick! Run!"
* Child turns and runner in terror into the nearest building!
	Child: 	runs*
	Danny: 	Danny entered the poke mart.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Danny has obtained 'Stolen Bike'.
	Jupiter: 	Jupiter slowly hummed outside the Pokemon Center, just waiting for something to happen. It wasn't like his boss to be so quiet. Maybe he was thinking about something.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Coloured pink.
	Danny: 	But decided to not chase the kid, then ride away into the sunset with his pink bike.
Kaorin Sakura: 	The PokéCare shop has the shop attendant utter confused with a wailing girl in the cen---
Kaorin Sakura: 	Danny has left the Mart.
* Meloetta nods to Kia and follows closely.
	Venec: 	Venec began to leave his pokemon house, a little shaken from the coversation. He waited in the street outside, hoping to run into Kia.
	Kia: 	Kia makes her way into her pokehome.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Venec and Kia would bump into each other.
DNA: 	Cepheus decided to survey the city and take a walk around. After all, nothing better to do right? Naturally, Jupiter sprinted ahead while Cepheus and Grace walked a little behind.
	Venec: 	Venec waved as Kia was about to walk inside, "Kia!"
	Grace: 	"Did we come too early? The town is so quiet."
	Danny: 	Danny took a ride on his bike to the PokeCenter.
	Cepheus: 	"Not sure, but I think it's afternoon right now, isn't it?"
	Kia: 	"Oh?" Kia turns only to notice Venec standing, and smiles warmly at him. "Hello Venec. What's up?"
	Danny: 	"Hi there!"
Kaorin Sakura: 	It is currently a late 4 AM.
	Cepheus: 	"...Danny, why are you riding a girl's bicy--...actually, I don't want to know."
	Venec: 	"Miranda, I had a chat with her, I think she's safe. She wanted a talk with you if you have the time."
	Danny: 	Danny, majestically atop his pink bike, which felt disturbingly right, smiled at Cepheus.
	Kia: 	"S..sure.." She nervously looked down still uncertain why Miranda would want to talk with her.
	Danny: 	The tassles on the handlebars flew beautifully in the wind.
	Danny: 	He rang the bell a few times.
	Jupiter: 	Jupiter's eyebrows were raised slightly. He shouldn't have been surprised at this, but he was.
	Kia: 	"I can talk now if she would like..I was just on my way to visit my other pokemon."
DNA: 	Jupiter started to float past Danny, not wanting to get involved, and invited his two best friends to do the same.
	Larry: 	"You don't want to know." Larry looked a little forlorn.
	Venec: 	"This might work better if it came first." Venec began to lead her to his pokehome, using his personal keycard to let her into the room Miranda was staying. "She wanted it alone, but Lucy and I will be here outside if you need anything."
	Cepheus: 	"...good idea."
	Danny: 	Danny made sure to ride alongside Cepheus.
	Kia: 	"Oh...ok then." Kia gave Venec a small smile before venturing into the house.
	Larry: 	Larry was still perched in the bike's front basket.
	Cepheus: 	"...Danny, I'm not an accessory to theft, so please stop making me look like one."
Kaorin Sakura: 	You come across room filled with a presence similar to when Lucy uses her pressure ability. It looks like a normal plains terrain aside from the darkened sky, red clouds and eerie winds. Miranda is sitting atop a large rock next to a tree.
	Danny: 	"I saved this bike!" Danny declared.
	Cepheus: 	"...Saved it from what, exactly?"
	Danny: 	"A terrible, awful person with awful, wailingness!"
* Miranda hears the door to the world opening and turns slowly to greet it, lifting her eyepatch from over her eyes and revealing her completely black eyes.
	Cepheus: 	"...You stole a bicycle from a little girl, Danny."
	Danny: 	"An EVIL little girl!"
	Miranda: 	"Kiiiiia...I was hoping I'd get the chance to meet the pretty lady who sniffed me out during our encounter. I'm glad you were brave enough to meet me. It'd be awkward any other way."
	Kia: 	"I hear you wanted to see me?" Kia slowly inched her way towards Miranda and gave the girl a tentative smile.
	Cepheus: 	"...You have no way to prove that."
	Danny: 	"I do," Danny said, thinking fast, "she threatened to kill me!"
	Cepheus: 	"...An evil little girl threatened to kill you...with what?"
	Jupiter: 	(I can't believe this...)
	Danny: 	"Her PokeMon."
	Kia: 	"Well...erm.." Kia scratched the back of head in her normal manner. "Well both Venec and Professor Oak said you were safe..."
	Larry: 	Larry shook his head and sighed.
	Cepheus: 	"And did she do this before or after you tried to steal her bicycle?"
* Miranda gave a rather large smirk.
	Miranda: 	"I am!"
	Cepheus: 	Then Cepheus realized that asking Danny questions would waste time. "Larry, what REALLY happened?"
	Miranda: 	"To you..." She said quickly.
	Danny: 	"I can't recall," Danny answered.
	Larry: 	Larry looked a little put on the spot. He paused. "Sloooowwww...king?"
	Cepheus: 	"...I know you can still talk, Larry; don't lie to me."
	Kia: 	Kia looked confused as the girl spoke. "What do you mean exactly? What exactly would you like from me?"
	Larry: 	"Damn," Larry said, "I forgot you were smart for your species."
	Cepheus: 	"...I'll take that as a compliment. Now, what happened?"
	Miranda: 	"Well, believe it or not, Kia, I've always wanted a Trainer. And us Pokémon can be rather picky. I'm one of those picky types. I'd like for you to be my Trainer, not Venec."
	Jupiter: 	(Of course he's smart! He's...) he paused dramatically for effect, (the only researcher in the world with a girlfriend!)
	Larry: 	"Well," Larry said, sighing, "Danny stole a bike from a little girl just outside the PokeMart. She cried. And ran into the PokeMart."
	Miranda: 	"Oh, and Venec and I had this conversation already. I'm free to be yours as far as he's concerned."
* Jupiter struck a pose.
	Cepheus: 	"And did this girl actually threaten Danny in any way or did he just steal the bicycle for kicks and giggles?"
	Danny: 	"But she was definitely evil."
DNA: 	Cepheus noticed Jupiter posing and thought (it's times like this I wish I knew what he was saying).
	Larry: 	"Well," Larry said, "um, erm, I am sure he had good intentions."
	Kia: 	Kia stared at Miranda in shock for a few moments, and opened her mouth and closed it unsure what to say. "Venec is a strong trainer, he would probably make a better trainer for you than I."
	Larry: 	"The girl is possibly a threat to Danny."
	Cepheus: 	"...No you're not. Your doubt betrays you."
	Cepheus: 	"...A threat in what way?"
	Larry: 	"To his freedom."
	Larry: 	"If he gets caught."
	Larry: 	Larry began to cry, "Don't let them put Danny away!"
* Cepheus paused.
	Danny: 	Danny rang the bike's bell a few times.
* Cepheus facepalmed a bit and thought 'of course she's a threat if Danny gets caught! This is theft!'
	Cepheus: 	"...You do realize I don't have any wish to become an accessory to theft, right?"
	Larry: 	Larry can read everybody's mind, as long as they're not thinking about cards and stuff.
	Miranda: 	"Stronger Trainer? In what sense? He's a specialized Trainer I'll admit, but stronger? Not from what I feel. I feel that you're destined for incredible things and being with you, we'll truly grow, together. We have an unspoken connection I feel. I don't feel this with Venec." Miranda suddenly got up from her rock and stepped over to Kia, noticeably shorter than her with her cat-like tail swishing behind her, "Won't you have me, Kia? Take me on your journey and let us experience what life has to offer, together?"
	Cepheus: 	"Danny, what's stopping you from returning the bicycle right here, right now?"
	Larry: 	"Perhaps," Larry answered, "but you would surely help out a friend. Look, Danny is innocent. He needs your help."
	Danny: 	Ring, ring. Tassle, tassle. Laugh.
	Cepheus: 	"...Innocent of what?"
	Larry: 	"..."
* Jupiter was trying to facepalm, but his hand couldn't reach his face.
	Larry: 	"Slooowww...king?"
	Kia: 	Kia watched as the girl moved towards her and smiled softly as the girl finished her plea. "I would love to have you on my team if that is truly what you wish. "
	Cepheus: 	"Larry! Don't mess around! If this is as serious as you say it is, you need to be forthcoming with information."
	Kia: 	Kia caustiously went to wrap her arms around the small girl still unsure how she would react. "Welcome to our family."
	Larry: 	Larry looked sad. "Help me get a new chain and reattach the bike where it should be."
	Cepheus: 	"...Sounds fair. Any idea where to find a new chain?"
* Jupiter was waving his hands, as to say 'Ooh! Ooh! Pick me! Pick me!'
	Cepheus: 	"Yes, Jupiter?"
	Larry: 	Larry looked to Jupiter with thanks.
* Miranda paused as she was about to turn to grab her Pokéball before feeling the soft and warm embrace of Kia's arms around her. Her eyes closed and she leaned into the embrace, curling her arms around her in response, giving a deep, satisfied sigh of happiness, "Y-Yes...thank you for having me."
	Jupiter: 	His body began to hum and crackle as it was filled with a strange magnetic energy. A paper clip then randomly hit him in the eye.
	Venec: 	Venec sat outside, leaning against the wall. He still had very mixed feelings about he whole even. On one hand he had promised to himself he would never be the trainer of a pokemon who didn't want him as one. But this is the first time he'd had a pokemon take him up on that offer, and rather frankly at that.
	Cepheus: 	"Ah, right, chains are magnetic. Let's see if we can find another chain somewhere, and use you to find it."
	Jupiter: 	Jupiter whooped with excitement as another paper clip hit him in the eye.
	Jupiter: 	(...Ow!)
	Kia: 	Kia smiled and stood up. "Well let's go meet the rest of our team members. Also Venec is waiting outside, I'm sure he will be glad to see things have gone well."
	Danny: 	"Keep it up! I have a good feeling!"
	Jupiter: 	He then started looking around, beckoning for Cepheus to follow, his hands outstretched to draw out metal objects.
	Jupiter: 	*thud*
	Cepheus: 	"Isn't there a chain on that bicycle?"
	Miranda: 	"W-Wait!!"
	Danny: 	"Yeah! Grab that chain!"
* Miranda turned and grabbed her Pokéball, holding it out to Kia.
	Cepheus: 	"Hmm, it appears to be locked securely on..."
	Miranda: 	"Here...umm, it's my ball."
* Cepheus Let's get that Lock Open!
* DNA rolls: 1d20+4 success at 16 or higher => 16 + 4 = 20
	Kia: 	Kia turns back as Miranda calls out to her, and shyly takes her ball. " Thanks..I guess this would be a good thing to take."
	Kia: 	"But unless in dire need, I would like you to walk with me." She holds out her hand for Miranda to take.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Cepheus opens the lock with ease, through sheer touching no less.
* Miranda blushes lightly as she looks down at Kia's hand and takes it eagerly.
* Jupiter turned his magnetic generator off and extricated himself from this bike.
	Miranda: 	"Yes! I'd love too!"
	Cepheus: 	"All right, Danny, here's the chain you need."
	Meloetta: 	"...You're quite the energetic one."
	Miranda: 	"Hush, you."
	Danny: 	Danny took the chain, then rode back to the PokeMart.
	Meloetta: 	"Only if you insist, but I'm rather liking it."
	Danny: 	Ring, ring. Tassle, tassle.
	Kia: 	Kia looks over at Meloetta. "You can talk?" And then blushes.
	Danny: 	Danny put the bike back where he found it, then locked it back up. "That's enough adventure for us today, Larry," he said.
* Meloetta looks over to Kia, "...Yes."
	Larry: 	"I agree."
	Larry: 	Larry then led Danny away from the scene of the crime.
	Cepheus: 	"...why would he even DO that?" Cepheus mumbled. "Steal a girl's bicycle? Just...why?"
	Kia: 	She smiles over at the taller pokemon with long hair. "Good to know. I've never seen a pokemon like you before."
* Meloetta blushed as she looked away some, "Thank you, pretty lady."
	Miranda: 	"Yah, she's quite a looker!"
	Lileep: 	"Bbblbblblblbbb!!"
	Kia: 	"You both are beautiful. ALright let's go, I think we have left Venec waiting for long enough."
	Meloetta: 	"He's the handsome man form earlier?"
	Venec: 	Venec lifted the cardkey that was still in his hand, "Wait, she's locked in there isn't she."
	Miranda: 	"Do you mean from?"
	Venec: 	".... Oops."
	Meloetta: 	"...You're implying that people don't have dual forms?"
	Miranda: 	"Oh, this'll be great!"
	Venec: 	"She'll knock, right?" Venec asked Lucy.
	Danny: 	"For the good of human kind," Danny answered.
	Lucy: 	"Maybe. Or not. If she's still alive or not."
	Venec: 	"Can't you do mind or aura stuff?"
	Lucy: 	"No, they're not on this plane of existence."
	Cepheus: 	"The good of...you know what, I've given up trying to understand you."
	Kia: 	When Meloetta montioned Venec being the hansome man she blinked curiously. "Yes him." As she made her way to the door she began to tug on it. "Hmm it seems to be locked." She began to lightly knock.
	Venec: 	"Well, that's probably it." Venec swiped the keycard and opened the door, "Everyone alive?"
	Danny: 	Danny entered Oak's lab.
	Kia: 	"Alive and well."Kia wanders out and smiles over at Venec. "Surprising but well."
* Meloetta looks over to the man form and stares placidly
	Miranda: 	"...You're drooling Neukorma."
* Meloetta wipes her mouth and continues to stare placidly.
	Venec: 	Venec grinned, "Great, lets find eveyone else and tell them you're okay."
	Kia: 	"Neukorma?" Kia looked over at Meloetta. "Was that your name?"
	Meloetta: 	"Yes."
	Miranda: 	"Well, for now. Trainers can name us themselves."
* Meloetta turns to Venec.
	Meloetta: 	"What's my name?"
	Venec: 	"... is this a riddle?" Venec was a little stunned.
	Kia: 	"I don't mind if you both keep your real names."
	Meloetta: 	"...No?"
	Cepheus: 	"...wait, if it's this late at night, how did Danny get noticed stealing a bicy-...actually, it hurts just to think about it."
	Miranda: 	"So, Lucy. Where's everyone else?"
	Kia: 	Kia looked thoughtful and then leaned over to whispher into Meloetta's ear.
* Lucy shrugs.
	Venec: 	Venec and Meloetta proceeded to stare at one another in confusion.
* Meloetta shivers to the whisper but stares at Venec still.
* Miranda snickers at the whole scene.
Kia whispers: Would you like Venec to be your trainer? He is handsome and will take care of you. I see that you have a slight fascination with him.
You whisper to Andy: I'm not sure. This Trainer thing is new to me. Who will use me more?
Kia whispers: Well...I think we both will use you as much as we can, but let me ask him.
	Kia: 	Kia bends up and looks over at Venec smiling. "Venec...since Miranda has chosen to come with me, would you like Meloetta to use? I think she has taken a liking to you."
	Lucy: 	"...Only if he wants a NORMAL type."
* Meloetta narrowed her eyes to Lucy.
	Miranda: 	"Whoa, w-was that...JEALOUSY I heard?"
	Lucy: 	"Wha!? N-No! To a HUMAN?! NO!"
	Miranda: 	"Whoa now. Calm down, don't want you Rayquazaring all over us now. I can't take another Hyper Beam."
* Lucy growls in frustration before turning.
	Lucy: 	"Nevermind then! Do whatever you want!"
	Venec: 	"U-um... Alright." Venec was caught off guard by the offer, "Consider it a trade?" Venec barely got farther than that before freezing and slooowly turning his head to Lucy with an incredulous eye.
* Lucy storms out of the building.
* Lucy sits down in front of the lab.
	Grace: 	"..."
	Cepheus: 	"Lucy, what's the matter?"
* Grace tackles Lucy to the grond and hugs her tightly.
	Kia: 	Kia nervously rans a hand on the back of her neck. "Well..."
	Lucy: 	"Ack! Get offa me!"
	Venec: 	"Um... I'm not sure if I should see what that was about or..."
	Grace: 	"No! Hugs!"
	Danny: 	Danny stood in front of the door, saw Lucy, and met up with the group.
	Lucy: 	"..." Lucy stops resisting.
	Lucy: 	"I-I'm...not...not gonna teach you how to dance..."
	Grace: 	"DAMMIT!"
DNA: 	Cepheus couldn't help but chuckle a bit; Grace was too enthusiastic about this.
	Danny: 	"I could really go for a hug right now."
* Grace gets off of Lucy and pouts beside her.
	Danny: 	Danny looked sad.
	Danny: 	"I miss my bike."
	Cepheus: 	(Great, now they're BOTH sad.)
	Kia: 	Kia looks down at Meloetta thoughtfully. " I'm not sure either. Meloetta does have one request, she would like to be an active part of the team. "
	Cepheus: 	"Danny, stop thinking about that stupid bicycle. Lucy, what's the matter?"
	Danny: 	"I even had a name for her..."
	Meloetta: 	"Yes, I want to be used."
	Danny: 	"The Mk 5."
	Miranda: 	"Pffft!!! Oh gawd, you have a FUNNY speech..."
	Meloetta: 	?
	Venec: 	Venec turned to Kia and Meloetta, "Anyway...." He sighed heavily.
	Miranda: 	"hahaa...aaahhh...'used'. Oh man!" Miranda continues laughing to herself.
	Meloetta: 	"I...I don't get what's so funny."
	Kia: 	Kia handed Meloetta's pokeball over but not before gently nudging Miranda. "Well here you go. I think you too will make a good team."
	Venec: 	"I don't either." Venec didn't admit he wasn't understanding much after all that just happened.
* Meloetta turns to Venec, "I'll be used?"
	Miranda: 	"oh gaaaaaaawd!! It just doesn't end!! Hahaaaaa!"
	Venec: 	He took the ball, held it up and nodded back, "Alright." He looked to Meloetta, "Welcome to the team!"
	Danny: 	"Where is everyone else? I have to tell them my sad story."
DNA: 	Not getting an answer, Cepheus sat down next to Grace and looked over at Lucy. "...Lucy, what's the matter?"
* Meloetta curtsey's gracefully before taking Venec's hand and kissing it.
	Meloetta: 	"Thank you, master handsome form."
	Lucy: 	"...I'm sharing a number with a prettier psychic."
	Cepheus: 	"...Sharing a number? what do you mean, number?"
	Grace: 	"what're you talking about? I'm not sharing anything with you."
	Lucy: 	"...No offense Grace...you're...you're not..."
	Grace: 	"Yes, I am. I'm gorgeous and you want me. But you can't have me. I'm taken."
	Lucy: 	"...I...I'm not gonna...comment."
DNA: 	Cepheus sighed, his head in his hand, but he couldn't help smiling.
	Grace: 	"Good. Now smile, stand and cheer."
	Lucy: 	"And...if I don't want to?"
	Jupiter: 	(Is...is the boss...giggling?)
	Grace: 	"I'll imagine every Human in town pleasuring themselves."
	Danny: 	"I'm a pretty psychic." Danny looked sad.
* Lucy stands and forces a smile.
	Cepheus: 	"Obsessed with sex as always, I see...?"
	Lucy: 	"You're evil." She says with a smile.
	Venec: 	"Lets... go find everyone else." Venec was starting to find himself flustered and not really understanding why.
	Meloetta: 	"Yes, master handsome form."
* Meloetta follows Venec closely.
	Venec: 	"My name's Venec." He smiled.
	Meloetta: 	"Yes, master handsome form Venec."
* Cepheus leapt to his feet, on the verge of laughter.
	Venec: 	"Walked into that one."
	Kia: 	Kia couldn't help but to chuckle as she followed the pair.
* Grace imagines Jupiter pleasuring himself.
	Lucy: 	"Gaahahhh!!"
* Lucy runs off screaming.
	Cepheus: 	"...what the hell did you do?"
	Grace: 	"Hah." Grace grins.
	Grace: 	"Hm? Nothing. Nothing at all."
	Venec: 	Venec walked out of the building and into the street, smiling as he saw everyone, "Well that was a short search!" He looked about, "Anyone seen Lucy?"
	Larry: 	Larry looked at Grace. "That's an interesting image."
	Larry: 	He smiled.
	Grace: 	"Ye--No! No one's seen Lucy."
	Cepheus: 	"That look in your eyes says otherwise, but I know better than to peer into your head."
	Meloetta: 	"You're going to remove the tall pale female form, master handsome form Venec?"
	Cepheus: 	"I'm...gonna go look for her. I'll be back shortly. Jupiter, with me."
	Grace: 	"Sheesh, and I was called evil."
	Danny: 	"You would think his main priority would be you, Grace."
	Venec: 	"Who's tall pale female form now?"
	Grace: 	"...I deserved it."
DNA: 	Wasn't long before Cepheus found her, looking clearly disturbed.
	Meloetta: 	"The woman in heat with you earlier."
	Danny: 	Danny looked shocked. "No. You're perfect!"
	Cepheus: 	"...I'd like to apologize for her reprehensible behavior."
* Lucy turns to Cepheus and wiped her brow before seeing Jupiter.
	Lucy: 	"Cannot unsee!"
	Jupiter: 	?
	Cepheus: 	"...Jupiter, head back."
	Cepheus: 	"...I'm guessing I don't want to know."
* Grace turns to Jupiter.
	Grace: 	"She still screaming?"
	Venec: 	Venec was certain Meloetta hadn't seen Irian yet, and was straining his selective obliviousness as hard as he could to prevent it from being anyone else.
	Jupiter: 	(What did you DO!?)
* Grace performs 'epic pose'.
	Jupiter: 	...
* Jupiter slapped Grace, because obviously she was to blame for something.
	Grace: 	"Ow!"
	Cepheus: 	"She's...kind of a jerk, isn't she?"
* Grace leans against a wall and her eyes water in response.
	Venec: 	"Well Im gonna look for her, be back in a bit." Venec walked off, Meloetta in tow.
* G.Oak steps outside of the lab.
	G.Oak: 	"There's a lot of commotion out here. What's going on?"
	Jupiter: 	(Uh oh...I am so screwed if the boss finds her like this...)
	Danny: 	"Woman beater!"
	Venec: 	"Cepheus! Seen Lucy anywhere around here?" Venec asked.
	Danny: 	Danny pointed at Jupiter accusingly!
	Cepheus: 	"She went this way," he said, beckoning for Venec to follow.
	Grace: 	"He just slapped me is all. I deserved it."
	Cepheus: 	"There, she's right there."
	Venec: 	Venec began to jog down the street behind Cepheus.
	G.Oak: 	"As long as it's for a supportive reason. Now, it's really early. Shouldn't you guys be badge hunting or something?"
	Danny: 	"Cepheus! Get here! Grace is being weird! And masochistic!"
	Venec: 	"Lucy!"
* Jupiter gave Danny a glare...
	Jupiter: 	(Fine, I'll go find him...)
* Lucy was gauging at her eyes at the moment.
	Venec: 	"Are... you okay?"
	Cepheus: 	"I'll...leave you two be." He turned back and went towards the center.
	Danny: 	(brb)
	Lucy: 	"Grace...that...that whore...she showed me terrible things..."
	Cepheus: 	"Ow! Jupiter, watch where you're going!"
	Venec: 	"What'd she do?"
	Meloetta: 	"The skinny blue form is a prostitute?"
* Cepheus rubbed his head with both hands after Jupiter ran straight into it.
	Venec: 	"No she's not." Venec was keen to correct.
* Lucy looks over to Meloetta and immediately grows quiet.
	Lucy: 	"..."
	Jupiter: 	...Sadface.
	Cepheus: 	"Well, you wanted me for something, right? Where do I need to be?"
* Jupiter went ahead in the direction of the center, beckoning him to follow.
	G.Oak: 	"...Y'know, why don't you guys go to the café? Eat up and decide what you all will be doing?"
	Kia: 	"That's not a bad idea.."Kia nodded thoughtfully. "Oh wait first I want to make a few party switches."
	Kia: 	She went to her pokehome and swiped the card needed to go in.
* DNA noticed that Grace's eyes were a bit red, possibly from crying.
DNA: 	(...darn, forgot to impersonate)
	Cepheus: 	"Okay, what happened while I wasn't here..."
* Grace turns to Cepheus and wipes her eyes.
	Venec: 	"Are you okay though?" Venec asked.
	Grace: 	"I'm sorry Ceph-chan."
	Lucy: 	"..."
* Lucy nods.
	Cepheus: 	"...sorry for what?"
	Lucy: 	"...Are...are you assessing Venec as a potiential mate?"
* Meloetta gaps.
	Meloetta: 	"You can read my mind?!"
	Lucy: 	"...Yes?"
	Venec: 	"No." Venec stated flatly. As if his opinion would cange matters.
* Meloetta clears her throat.
	Meloetta: 	"No!"
	Lucy: 	"Well, according to majority, I can't."
	Meloetta: 	"Can I hug you?"
	Lucy: 	"..."
	Lucy: 	"Venec, my Pokéball please."
	Venec: 	"I was saying no to the..." Venec looked to make sure she wasn't talking to him.
	Danny: 	"I could help with the 'potential mate' thing."
	Danny: 	"I am a Breeder."
	Kia: 	As Kia entered her pokeball she greeted all of her pokemon who were out petting each on the head. "Well everyone here is Miranda, and " She paused looking down at the green plant in her arm. "This is Denton."
	Miranda: 	"Yoh!"
* Cepheus heard Kia mention the word 'Miranda', and at that very instant all the color just drained from his face and eyes.
* Miranda waved at everyone with a big smile.
	Jupiter: 	Jupiter got worried. This wasn't going to end well.
	Venec: 	"I... I guess you could hug me."
	Cepheus: 	".....Hello Denton," he said, curtly.
* Meloetta wraps her arms around Venec and enveloped him in a tight hug.
You whisper to Venec_Myles: And you now realize she's not wearing undergarments.
	Lucy: 	"Ball, please."
	Venec: 	Venec held it out, turning red from the encounter.
	Lucy: 	"Kiai!"
* Lucy punches her ball in frustration, angrily returning herself inside of it.
* Meloetta snuggles herself against Venec with an audible 'mmm'.
	Meloetta: 	"You're very warm master handsome form Venec."
	Kia: 	Kia smiled and released Sarka, Lala, and Vi from their pokeballs. "Alright you three I want you to rest here for a bit." She took he slakoth and trapinches pokeball and set them on her belt alond with Mirands. "Alright. new mon to use."
	Kia: 	Mirandas**
	Venec: 	"Thanks." Venec tried to take the complement, "I think we should go find the others now though..."
	Kia: 	"I promise I will come back for you three soon. Now to meet back up with the others." Kia exited her pokehome.
	Meloetta: 	"Yes, master."
* Meloetta released Venec and followed closely behind him.
	Miranda: 	"Whoo! I made the cut!"
	Grace: 	"So, Professor, who's the Gym Leader in town?"
	G.Oak: 	"...An idiot."
	Grace: 	"What does he use?"
	Kia: 	"I wouldn't call it a cut.."Kia looked thoughful. "Just giving them some time to rest."
	Venec: 	Venec walked back to the group, down the empty morning streets, Meloetta in tow. It was already kind of strange not feeling the aura of Lucy's surpressed pressure ability.
	G.Oak: 	"...Yellow."
	Venec: 	"Yo!"
	Grace: 	"Think we can---"
	G.Oak: 	"Ah! Venec, so good of you to return!"
	Danny: 	Danny took the time to trade his PokeMon.
	Grace: 	"ANyway, like I was---"
	G.Oak: 	"You should take your friends to the Pokemon Center, Café, mart or wherever!"
	Grace: 	"H-Hey, stop interrup--"
	Venec: 	"But we like this street!" Venec laughed.
	G.Oak: 	"The café has some excellent food and drink. And it's a nice place to relax, plan and what-not."
	Grace: 	"V-Venec, I was asking about the Gym Lea---"
	G.Oak: 	"This street isn't anything worthwhile. It's nowhere near as fascinating as the rest of the city!"
	Danny: 	"We plan to fight the Gym Leader in armed combat, Professor G.
* G.Oak turns to Danny and sighs.
	G.Oak: 	"Well, there's no 'armed' combat. Just some quizes and consequences."
Kia: 	"Quizes?...Like a test?"
Kia: 	Kia folded her arms thoughtfully. In school she was only an average student.
	Cepheus: 	"Is it going to be a quiz where if we get a wrong answer we get zapped by an electric chair?
	G.Oak: 	"Tests your knowledge of Pokémon. But, if you fail you'll fight stuff and if you win, you continue."
	Cepheus: 	"...Reasonable."
Kia: 	Kia looked pleadingly at Cephesus. "I know you didn't want to do gym battles earlier, but it sounds like we could really use your knowledge for this gym."
	Venec: 	"Well darn if I couldn't use a drink about now..." Venec said in response to Oak's suggestion.
	Danny: 	"It's armed combat with our minds!"
	G.Oak: 	"Yes!!"
* G.Oak fistpumps Danny.
	Danny: 	"Yeah, G!"
	Cepheus: 	"All right. I could definitely lend a hand in that."
	Danny: 	"Let's head there now!"
	Venec: 	"I'll be a good failsafe, and that's about it."
	G.Oak: 	"You all should probably rest up first.
	Cepheus: 	"Right...it IS pretty early."
	Grace: 	"Why?"
	Danny: 	"Okay," Danny said, yawning.
	Grace: 	"Kia!! C'mere."
	Kia: 	"Well.."Kia's stomach grumbled. She wandered over to Grace. "Yes Grace?"
	Venec: 	"I'm not gonna lie, I could use a little beaten up." Venec looked at the razor leaf cuts over his body.
* Grace performs Heal Pulse!
	Grace: 	"I radiate healing!"
	Jupiter: 	Jupiter is healed and gains 0 hit points.
	Cepheus: 	Cepheus is healed and gains 0 hit points.
	Kia: 	Kia felt a healing surge go through here. "Thank you Grace! I feel better already!"
	Venec: 	Venec is healed and gains 108 hit points.
* Grace punches Venec's shoulder playfully.
	Cepheus: 	"......Why does that just feel like a warm fuzzy feeling right now?"
	Grace: 	"I'll give you another warm wave of healing in a few more minutes."
	Venec: 	"In that case, Layla's not doing hot herself."
	Meloetta: 	"Can...you teach me that, blue female prostitute?"
	Kia: 	Kia is healed and gains 79 hit points.
	Grace: 	"...What....did you call me?"
	Venec: 	"I told you she's not."
	Cepheus: 	"...what the..."
* Grace grips her fist which suddenly catches fire.
	Grace: 	"SAY THAT AGAIN!"
	Cepheus: 	"Grace, no! It's not worth it!"
	Meloetta: 	"I cannot. Master says you're not a prostitute."
	Venec: 	"Something you said to Lucy, prompted her to say something which Meloetta took that way."
	Grace: 	"Oh."
	Grace: 	"Ohhhhhh."
	Grace: 	"Wait, where's Lucy?"
	Cepheus: 	"Probably as far away from you as possible."
	Venec: 	"She wanted some cooldown time, or something."
	G.Oak: 	"And I'll be heading to sleep for a few hours now. Call me if you need me, gang."
* G.Oak returns into his lab.
	Venec: 	It wasn't a lie, but he knew that Grace would use it against Lucy to know she agreed to go into her pokeball.
	Venec: 	"Anyway, food. I haven't eaten in nearly a day now."
	Miranda: 	"Wow, you guys must've really set something off in her."
* Grace turns to Miranda.
	Miranda: 	"Yoh."
* Miranda waves at the group.
	Grace: 	"..."
* Kaorin Sakura rolls: 1d20-2 Signal Beam vs. Miranda. => 3 - 2 = 1
* Grace suddenly shoots a large rainbow coloured beam at Miranda
	Venec: 	Venec began to walk down the street, stopping in his tracks at the beam.
	Miranda: 	"The hell?!"
* Miranda quickly guards against the incoming attack with a quick protective barrier.
	Layla: 	Layla yelps in confusion as the beam flies past her.
	Jupiter: 	Jupiter gave a surprised stare, powerless to stop it.
	Venec: 	(Entering init, Dex 18)
	Kia: 	Kia steps protectively in front of Miranda. "What was that for?"
Kaorin Sakura: 	Feel free, there's no real initiative here. Miranda isn't fighting.
	Grace: 	"Crazy evil woman is here! How did we not notice her?!"
	Venec: 	Venec did likewise.
	Miranda: 	"Hey! I am NOT evil."
	Kia: 	Even though their first meeting with Miranda had been chancey, Kia was willing to give Miranda a second chance. Besides, maybe everything was a misunderstanding.
	Layla: 	Layla ran back and forth barking loudly, knowing that an enemy lurked by but not knowing who it was!
	Kia: 	"Grace...Miranda is not a threat."
	Layla: 	She stopped at Venec's feet and looked up with a confused whine.
	Grace: 	"What?! Since when?"
	Miranda: 	"U-uhnmm...20 minutes ago!"
	Danny: 	"She's now an important member of our team!"
	Venec: 	"Since I caught her..." Venec scratched the back of his head.
	Jupiter: 	Jupiter turned and stared at his master. His arms were folded, his eyes were near slits, and the light was absent from his gaze.
	Venec: 	"A Lucy happened again, I guess."
	Danny: 	"You're like the master of Miranda now, right?" He looked at Venec.
	Jupiter: 	...Yep, Cepheus' view hadn't changed a bit.
	Venec: 	"I was for a few minutes."
	Grace: 	"Oh. So, I should only zap her with instant death when she does something suspicious?"
	Danny: 	Danny appeared to be confused by this answer.
	Miranda: 	"How about...not at all?"
	Grace: 	"So, who's the owner if it's not you, Venec?"
* Miranda was ignored.
	Kia: 	Kia shook her head. "No..Miranda is on my team. " She turned towards the grace. "No zapping of Miranda is permitted."
	Venec: 	"Kia now. Lucy wasn't keen on it either but I used my Fire type shift talent to allow Lucy to read her mind." Venec shrugged, "She's as safe as anyone."
	Kia: 	She turned towards Miranda. "and you wont hurt anyone else here will you?"
	Miranda: 	"Nuh-uhn. Umm...wait, yes, I totally would."
	Grace: 	"See?!"
	Miranda: 	"If Kia wanted me to hurt any of you, I would. Because she knows best."
	Cepheus: 	(I don't believe this...) Cepheus thought. (This sounds too much like a trap to be real.)
	Venec: 	"It is kind of how pokemon battles work..." Venec shrugged, "But anyway..." He started to walk off again.
	Danny: 	"Poppy-cock!" Danny declared. "I am the one that knows best!"
	Kia: 	Kia blushed. "I'm not sure if I know best, but these are my friends. No harm is to come to them."
	Miranda: 	"Then I'll protect 'em wiff me life, I will!"
	Grace: 	"Even if I try to kill you again?"
	Miranda: 	"Damn right."
	Kia: 	Kia smiled and squeezed the girls hand once affectionately. " I would appreciate that greatly."
	Danny: 	Danny totally followed after Venec.
	Danny: 	He made ringing noises with his mouth and tassling gesture with his hands as he ran.
Danny: 	He missed his bike.
Kia: 	As they talked Kia trodged after Venec.
	Cepheus: 	"..."
Venec: 	Venec walked down the street, occasionally looking back to see if any followed. Eventually he walked into the cafe with a jingle of the door's bell.
	Cepheus: 	"...Let's go, guys."
	Charles: 	"Hello! Welcome to my café!! Take a seat and I'll be right with you."
Danny: 	Danny barged into the cafe!
Venec: 	Venec returned Layla and nodded, sitting down at the booth.
Danny: 	"Give me a latte! I'm on edge!"
DNA: 	He was walking really slowly towards the cafe, as if he just wanted to forget seeing Miranda there. He was in a bad mood and he knew it, but he was trying so desperately to not let it affect him.
Kia: 	Kia followed the others to the table and sat down making enough room for MIranda to join.
	Charles: 	"Oh wow, big group this morning!"
	Charles: 	"Please, take a look at our menu's and let me know what I can get for you."
Danny: 	"Four people. Must be rush hour."
Kia: 	"What would you like to eat?" Kia looked questioningly over at Miranda as she scanned the menu.
DNA: 	Cepheus quietly shuffled in and took a table for himself. Grace sat next to him, Jupiter was opposite.
Venec: 	"What do you want?" Venec asked his new companion.
	Miranda: 	"My favourite meal is tangela with a side of electricity."
Danny: 	Danny took a look at the menu.
	Meloetta: 	"I dont' know, Master. Whatever you have."
Kia: 	"Erhhmm..I'm not sure if they have that. Does anything else look satisfying?"
	Betty: 	"Do you need some---"
	Betty: 	"Oh lord, what on Earth?!'
* Miranda waves to the new girl.
	Miranda: 	"Yoh!"
	Betty: 	"A-Are you a..."
	Miranda: 	"Pokémon? Damn right."
	Betty: 	"O-Oh. Sorry I...ahem. Do you need some help deciding?"
Danny: 	"hmmmmm..."
	Miranda: 	"Whatever's popular. I haven't eaten Human food in 9 years."
Venec: 	Venec nodded as he looked up at the menue, worried at how expensive things were getting. He looked down and held up Lucys Healball, feeling bad that she didn't get food either. "Do you want something?" he asked the ball, half expecting her telekinesis to be able to respond.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Venec doesn't get a response.
Danny: 	"I want an Americano. What do you want, Larry?"
	Larry: 	Larry appeared cheerful. "Chai Tea, please."
DNA: 	Cepheus quietly sighed to himself and slumped back in his chair. He didn't want to put up with Miranda being around at all; he couldn't stand the sight of her. He could see jupiter staring across at him, who looked very concerned.
	Danny: 	Danny looked at the server. "I am ready to order now."
Venec: 	Venec decided that asking would be important, so he tossed the pokeballs of both Lucy and Rhea.
	Grace: 	"Ceph-chan, lighten up. Miranda's not so bad so far. Maybe she'll grow on us? Lucy wasn't any different..."
	Lucy: 	"..."
Kia: 	"I'll have a veggie breakfast. I guess give Miranda a single breakfast." Kia finally decided.
Kia: 	give her**
	Cepheus: 	"She almost KILLED you!" he nearly blurted out.
Venec: 	"We're getting breakfast I wanted to know if you two wanted one."
	Cepheus: 	"I can't turn a blind eye to something like that!"
	Betty: 	"Coming right up! That'll be 495¥."
Kia: 	Kia dug out the money from her pack and handed it over.
	Lucy: 	"Yes."
	Grace: 	"...and so did Layla so, I fail to see the importance here."
	Venec: 	"Could you translate for Rhea too?"
	Cepheus: 	"Not intentionally!"
Kia: 	"So you have been a pokemon for eight years?" Kia looked thoughtfully at Miranda as she eyed her. "How old were you in human years..you seem young."
	Betty: 	"Hello, what can I get for you?"
Kia: 	"Well I should say you appear to be young."
	Grace: 	"I don't think she intentionally tried to kill me. Just knock me out. I wasn't trying to kill her."
	Danny: 	"Hi!"
	Miranda: 	"Whelp, I'm around the middle, I guess? I was 8 before i became a Pokémon. I'm not the oldest here though. Boobies over there is."
	Danny: 	"Um, a double breakfast!"
	Danny: 	"And a ..."
	Danny: 	Danny looked at Larry.
	Cepheus: 	"Still doesn't apply to Miranda, who actually DID try to kill you."
	Larry: 	"Chai Tea."
	Lucy: 	"Rhea wants Chai Tea and a Veggie Breakfast.."
	Grace: 	"Maybe you two should sit and chat..."
	Cepheus: 	"...You're asking too much."
	Betty: 	"Just a Chai Tea?"
	Betty: 	"Wait, I'm sorry, the ruckus threw everything off."
	Betty: 	"Two doubles, one with a Chai Tea? What's your other drink?"
	Venec: 	Venec nodded, "And you Lucy?"
	Larry: 	"Nothing more, thank you."
	Betty: 	"Err, a Double, with a Chai Tea and...?"
	Larry: 	Larry took charge.
	Lucy: 	"Single Breakfast, plaese."
	Lucy: 	please*
	Larry: 	Larry frowned. "Two double, one with Chai Tea..."
	Betty: 	"That'll be 495¥...sir?"
* Betty wasn't sure who to bill at this table.
Kia: 	Kia did a quick glance over at Meloetta and blushed. "I'm not sure if she would like to be called that but anyhow."Kia looked at Miranda thoughtfully once again. "What made you decide to become a pokemon? In a lot of ways I can understand. That is one of the reasons I have studied my father's power of connecting to pokemon, but to become one.."
	Larry: 	Larry looked at Danny.
	Danny: 	"I'm the one with the money!"
	Miranda: 	"Mewtwo."
	Danny: 	He pulled out his change purse, and gave her the money in small change.
	Betty: 	"Thank you!"
	Danny: 	In small credit*
Kia: 	"Speaking of my father I wonder if he has made it home yet." Kia spoke out loud for a second as she reminisced about her meetup with her father in Pewter,
	Betty: 	"Hello, what can I get for you?"
	Miranda: 	"I'd love to meet your father."
	Cepheus: 	"...Grace, what do you want to eat? Just before the waitress comes over here."
Kia: 	"Mewtwo? Did you admire him or something?" Kia smiled at Miranda. "I'm sure he would love to meet you."
	Miranda: 	"Then, I can get on good terms with your family in case I ever attempt to take your hand in marriage."
	Miranda: 	"I know Mewtwo."
	Grace: 	"Single, Chai."
	Venec: 	Venec pointed to Rhea, "A Veggie breakfast," to Lucy, "Single Breakfast," to Meloetta, "another single breakfast," to himself, "Do you have any eating challenges? Otherwise I'll take a double breakfast, Green tea."
	Cepheus: 	"...would you be willing to split a double?"
	Cepheus: 	"It'd cost less."
	Grace: 	"Yes."
	Betty: 	"That'll be 890¥."
	Cepheus: 	"Got it."
	Venec: 	Venec smiled and paid.
	Betty: 	"What can I get for you?"
	Cepheus: 	"...One double breakfast, a chai tea, and an ice latte, please."
	Betty: 	"That'll be 495¥."
	Cepheus: 	"...Thank you." He handed the money over quietly.
Kia: 	"My hand in marriage? What?" Kia looked questioningly over at Miranda and then chuckled. "Err...marriage is the last thing in my mind. Besides I'm not sure if I could ever look at you like that." She let out a light laugh.."I mean you are shorter than me."
Kia: 	"but anyways...how do you know Mewtwo?" Kia was curious about Miranda's past.
* Miranda frowned for a moment, "I can get bigger. And I can turn into a male if you prefer that."
* Jupiter sat quietly to himself, not wanting to disturb anything going on. He could feel a very somber atmosphere at his table.
	Miranda: 	"I was his friend in our early years."
	Miranda: 	"And his Trainer briefly."
Kia: 	At the mention of Miranda transforming, Kia let out another series of laughs. "I want you to be yourself. There is no need to transform. But."Kia's eye lightened at the mention of Miranda being Mewtwo's trainer. " So what happened...are you two still friends?"
	Venec: 	Venec sat at his own silent table. Feeling a little awkward between the glances.
	Miranda: 	"Dunno. I was removed from him before we got anywhere."
	Lucy: 	"...How do we amend this?"
DNA: 	Cepheus just sank in his seat again. "This is going to be one long day."
	Meloetta: 	"Amend what?"
	Grace: 	"Ceph-chan...stop it."
	Venec: 	Venec felt he should say something, but still wasn't sure what was going on exactly.
	Miranda: 	"But, I'm glad you prefer me as me."
	Cepheus: 	"...All right, all right..." He sat up, but he wasn't feeling any better.
	Lucy: 	"...Why are you trying to date our Trainer?"
	Meloetta: 	"I'm not. He's my Master."
	Danny: 	"Cheer up, Cepheus! Put a smile on that dial!"
	Cepheus: 	He wasn't sure if he was just tired, hungry, or hated Miranda...or all the weird stuff that happened before, but...
	Lucy: 	"He's MY Master!"
	Danny: 	Danny ate up his food.
	Miranda: 	"Whoa now! Lucy's lost it!"
	Cepheus: 	"Easier said than done, Danny," Cepheus called out, without turning his head.
	Venec: 	"I said we should get some food, she didn't invite me on anything."
DNA: 	Cepheus started slowly eating his food, trying to savor the taste of it
	Venec: 	Venec was quick to dig into both of his ordered meals, hungrier than a Snorlax.
Kia: 	Kia smiled. "Of course I do! I wouldn't want anyone to change for me ever!" Kia grabed a fork and started to munch on her eggs.
	Cepheus: 	"...Grace, how can you still remain so...nonchalant about this?" he said between mouthfuls.
	Miranda: 	"Aww, thanks! You're such a sweetie."
	Grace: 	"Because as far as things have been proven, it wasn't homicide. Until she shows she's up to something or trying to kill us, I'm willing to give her a chance."
	Larry: 	Larry ate his food politely, enjoying his drink. He lifted his tea cup with his pinky out.
	Cepheus: 	"...I just can't be so trusting yet. I just...can't...I almost lost you because of her."
Kia: 	Kia pushed Miranda's plate closer to her. "Eat up. Our first gym battle is approaching!"
	Venec: 	"Ah! Hot!" Venec was too quick trying to drink his own tea. He blew on it before trying again.
	Danny: 	"I totally saved her!" Danny yelled across tables to Cepheus.
	Grace: 	"And I'm still here and we're all still a happy family. She almost killed me sure, but now has said she'll try to protect us. Give her a chance at least. Nothing will happen until you do."
	Grace: 	"You totally did!"
	Cepheus: 	"...I certainly hope so. For now...I don't ever want to see her near me."
	Miranda: 	"Ah, thanks! I will. I'm glad I get to be with you at the start of your journey too!"
* Miranda quickly says a prayer before digging into her food.
	Danny: 	Danny, not wanting to be outdone by Venec, his arch nemesis as far as the leadership role goes... tried to eat faster!
	Danny: 	He wanted to be the first to finish his food.
	Danny: 	"Me first!" he said with his mouth full.
	Grace: 	"Oh! Before I forget."
	Cepheus: 	"...He's such a child," he mumbled, continuing to eat.
	Venec: 	Venec didn't seem to notice Danny's challenge, and continued to eat.
* Grace gets up from her table.
	Grace: 	"Healing!"
* Grace performs Heal Pulse.
	Venec: 	Venec looked up at her, "Hm?"
	Venec: 	Venec is healed and gains 63 hit points.
	Grace: 	"Eat up Mr.Charmer."
	Venec: 	"Ah, thanks again Grace." Venec smiled.
	Danny: 	"No! I'm Mister Charmer!" Danny yelled as he spat out food.
	Miranda: 	"...But...you're...wait!"
* Miranda looks around the room.
	Miranda: 	"Well, you're the best LOOKing guy here I'll say. But by far the one with the most charm."
* Miranda turns to Kia, "You got that one in the bag."
	Venec: 	Venec turned to Meloetta, "So, you need a nickname?"
	Meloetta: 	"Yes, Master."
	Danny: 	Danny eyed Miranda with an evil glint sparking in his eye. "You have made a powerful enemy."
* Jupiter felt very awkward. he was used to doing something or going somewhere, but now he was just sitting quietly to himself. He wanted to see Cepheus smile, but he didn't know how to do it.
Kia: 	Kia blushed. "Err...thanks."
	Lucy: 	"I...I oddly...second Miranda on that, Kia."
	Miranda: 	"I totally didn't make her say that."
	Grace: 	"Bah, I don't see what you guys see. She's a woman and women are...well...unappealing."
	Cepheus: 	"Yeah, to you maybe. You look appealing to me."
	Grace: 	"Aww, thanks, Ceph-chan!"
	Cepheus: 	"You're welcome, Gracie."
* Grace hugs Cepheus affectionately.
	Jupiter: 	(Did he just say Gracie?)
* Grace grinned to the nickname.
* Cepheus hugged her right back
Kia: 	Kia's face got even redder. "Thanks Lucy..." SHe started to chow down on her food even more not sure what to say.
	Venec: 	Venec was lost in thought. He normally asked Lucy for her opinion but for some reason a small voice within him told him that wasn't a good idea.
	Danny: 	"Ha! Done!" Danny had finished eating.
	Venec: 	Venec was halfway done with his second plate, Danny had, indeed finished before him.
DNA: 	Cepheus was still eating, but he was doing so a bit faster than normal. He looked to be in better spirits, which relieved Jupiter.
	Venec: 	"Did you say you had an original name?" Venec asked Meloetta?
	Larry: 	Larry drank his Chai Tea.
	Meloetta: 	"Yes, Neukorma."
DNA: 	Cepheus was now steadily sipping his latte. He was sloooooowly feeling better.
	Venec: 	"That's a very pretty name, I'd feel bad coming up with a new one." Venec said, idly chewing on a strip of bacon.
* Meloetta felt her cheeks grow warm at the compliment, "You're too kind, Master."
	Venec: 	"How'd you like to stay Neukorma?"
	Meloetta: 	"I...if Master appreciates it."
Kia: 	Kia finished eating and instantly felt better. "That was a much needed meal."
	Venec: 	"Neukorma..." Venec nodded.
* Miranda licked her lips as she finished her meal.
	Larry: 	Larry had finished his meal and drink.
	Miranda: 	"Not as good as Tangela while being shocked by a horde of Joltik as a snack, but very delicious. I could get used to this."
	Venec: 	Venec finished up his meal, now sipping away at his tea.
	Cepheus: 	"I almost forgot what coffee tasted like. This is actually pretty good."
	Grace: 	"I missed tea..."
* Grace sips her tea with surprising grace.
	Venec: 	"Have you ever wanted a nickname?" Venec asked Lucy. He'd asked before but she'd dodged the question.
Kia: 	Kia awkwardly scratched the back of her head. "That sounds ...tortuous, but I'm glad you enjoyed it."
	Cepheus: 	"I prefer tea to coffee usually, but I think I needed coffee more right now..."
