Wtf Is Going On Inside Shady House Right Now. Should He Be Worried.

There's a thud on the other side of the door. Archie raises an eyebrow, but decides not to inquire.

Crisis somewhat averted, though? Not that he lied about anything, just-- He always feels so guilty whenever people recognize him. Fair enough, though. He did some awful things. "That's jus' how I was born. I'm a merfolk. An' I'm no' the only one either, not from the merfolk nor from whatcha call supernatural people."

"…I know, I--"

A groan, and he let himself fall down, his back pressed on the door. Being worried about a guy who almost ended the world and regretted his action was quite hypocritical for someone working for Guzma, huh…? Especially if he was dragged in there like most of the Skulls.

"…and, uhm.

The… tail, then?"

@gnzma i think i deserve a little respect. [ bc i had to hold him back from sending the ass one ]

"...I ne'er said I didn't respect ya?" Huh. Confusing. He did actually have some respect for the other at least. "But fine. What do ya want me t'do t'prove it?"

I dare you to do a backflip

@emeraldpride asked: "What the hell makes you think you can show your face around here?"

Not the first time he heard those words, truth be told. But when he turns around to look at who's basically telling him to piss off, he can't help but raise a brow. Now who might this be? Somehow familiar, and yet... He doesn't think they have met.

"Bwahaha! What's that? Can't show my mug 'round here, you say?" He leans forward, intimidatingly so (a bad habit he's still to shake), and grins wide. "And why's that?"

"..." So that's how this was gonna be, hmm? He's in the shittiest position right now too, 'cause if he retaliates he's giving him ammo to throw him out for real.

Cheekfins flared, he just retracts further into the bathtub, praying that at least the sparks don't hit him. This sucks.

"Sure, sure - get your beauty sleep." Jacks waved an hand in dismiss, pretending like he was going to just relax. But in truth he figured, if he was being the worst roommate ever, maybe the guy would just fuck off on his own.

So he released his Toxtricity. "Just ignore me and my buddy just jammin' out a bit." And as if on cue, Riff the Toxtricity began to play some loud music, causing sparks to jump into the air.

He's just tossing a Pokétoy through the hole in the wall of his guest room. His Mightyena is fetching it each time, happily wagging his tail.

@whereskymeetsea // Gameverse: "I think this went on for long enough, yeah?" For someone her age, who just ripped through an entire evil base, Sapphire seemed way too calm. She beamed with the pride only a teenager could have, a PokèBall tossed in the air just to get caught once more in her left hand, the right on her hips. "What will it be, captain? Do you want to quit the easy way or the fun way?:

Her being here meant one single thing. His entire base got wiped.

And yet, he's grinning. No, laughing. His laughter bellows through the room, despite his grunts and admins being unable to fight. He's the last hurdle now. The only one who can protect this plan of his.

"Ya think so? But it was jus' gettin' fun!" Archie reaches for his belt clip. "O' course we're doing this the fun way! Who do ya take me fer??"

"..." Well. He's out of the cramped bathtub at least. He's currently just curled up on the bed in the spare room handed to him, trying to get comfortable.

Why couldn't it have been a waterbed... He's gotten too used to the sway of the ocean again.

He carefully runs a hand over the stitches Plumeria did, sighing. Woman clearly knew what she was doing with them. Probably had to patch up that Guzma more often than not, or grunts. Either way, it was impressive. Mightyena gives him a lick in the face, clearly worried about his trainer. Archie pats him on the head, trying his best to smile genuinely. Guess the Pokémon could sense he was out of it better than anyone here. Made sense. Been together for ages. "I'll be alri'." Still, he felt a little feverish. Should probably mention that to Plumes-- Plumeria next time she comes to check up on him.

For now he'd try to rest.

i feel like archie got loaned a switch and is currently addicted to like. Pokémon Crossing or something cause he ain't working with me ))

"...I can't have some o' tha', I'm afraid."

Curse his sensitive stomach... Part of him would eat the cupcake anyway, but... He's still healing a bit.

"They're super cool, tho'."

"Cupcake ingredients. I bought a pack of them. Um" Shes reading the back of the package.

"Four, Sugar, Egg, baking powder, salt, chocolate chips, butter, milk, and Vanilla iceing"

She looked at the cupcake.

"Oh and there is a little plastic ring that looks like a water stone on top!
