[The first thing that shows up on the screen is something very, Very Neon Green before it's pulled away to reveal... something cartoonish if it wasn't for the shine and fact it's real, if not creepily unexpressive. It's also smaller than Princess. Also still Neon Green as it floats next to a grinning, orange clad Eva, who has a smallish red bird settled on her shoulder.]

Hey sorry for not greeting any of you on the platform, but I was kinda distracted some new pokemon.

[That and her phone (mostly her phone), but details.]

Anyway, I figured this is the fastest way to let you all know that starting tomorrow sometime, if you need to move Princess or deal with him, Kuroba-kun's looking after him for the next seven-day.

[Her grin is a fully-fledged one of pure mischief as she ends the feed.]

Comments

[pleple]

Hmph.

[ Someone comes from a place with very strong laws against this apparently. ...and has strong feelings herself. Personal reasons? ]

It's up to the winner of a conflict to decide who is to be persecuted. I was likely... planned by a team, and I have no idea where they are now. Perhaps none of them are alive... but whatever the case, I and my sisters remained in the possession of Glemy Toto. For the purposes of creating an obedient... corps of Newtype soldiers.

[ But, oops, he had to wake them up young. ]

Perhaps... a court would find me innocent of the orders I followed. I don't feel innocent.

[mtsilver_conquor]

They do say history's written by the victors.

[Even in her world, that is so very, very true.]

My hope is they are dead. To toy with life, and then desire it to be nothing more than tools... That's abhorrently wrong. I know... I know someone, a child still, a little younger than you, who was created like that. To be nothing but a tool and the child soldiers of the selfish desires of greedy humans. If she's innocent, then so are you, no matter how you feel.

[pleple]

Always the case, yes.

[ Often for centuries, anyways. ]

I've killed people. Without a single regret in my heart... even if I was made that way. It's not like I can just undo that, whether or not I'm... entirely to blame for it.

[mtsilver_conquor]

[Eva's smile is one of understanding and experience, as if she's had this talk before.

Or, something like it at least.]

You can't, but it's how you face the future that counts and how you deal with it. As far as I care, you're a victim of circumstance and conditioning, just like my friend is.

[And she does think of Fluffy as a friend.] And if anyone says otherwise, point them in my direction, will you?

[pleple]

...people here are mostly encouraging, like you.

[ And others have convinced her that she's worth 'redemption'. ]

Fighting is still what I'm... best at.

[mtsilver_conquor]

[Because you are worth redemption, Ple!]

No shame in that, but don't let it define you.

[Lele bobs in agreement and if Eva hadn't already denied access to its vocalbox, it would have backed that up with an 'agreement'.

Though how much is because it does agree and how much is because it's Eva's pokemon is unknown.]

See? Even Lele agrees. But people here have probably already told you that, right?

[pleple]

Lots of them. It... doesn't hurt to hear it again.

[ Even Lele agrees. How nice. ]

[mtsilver_conquor]

I'll say it as many times as I must, too.

[She means it, too.]

[pleple]

...that's... kind of you. Thank you.

[mtsilver_conquor]

You're welcome.

And, hey, if I ever get Lele's glowsticks, you can help me install them on it, if you want.

[pleple]

That might be fun...

Close to wrap?

[mtsilver_conquor]

It will be. I promise.

[pleple]

[ ooc: let's wrap with that then. o/ ]
