[CLOSED] It's okay if you don't want to tell me, you know.

Who: Siffrin (ISAT) and Odile
What: normal things happening at the pokepastry shop
When: Early October
Where: Bottlecap Bay City Center
Warnings: Spoilers for In Stars And Time, Siffrin's extremely bad no good mental health


Things have been... okay. They're still adjusting to being a cat, but they've accepted the new normal a lot faster than they thought it would take. Maybe it's because they're so used to the same things happening all the time, having all this change at once is kind of refreshing? They're in a new place, with a new form and a new name...

But they're trying not to dwell on it too much. Just take things one step at a time, stardust! Focus on the things you can do right now! That's what Loop would tell them if they remembered.

Today, that's treating themselves for surviving another month. They exit the shop cradling their pain au chocolat like a valuable treasure. This time, they need to savour it... they have to make it last... they should at least find somewhere nice to sit...

...

Living up to their name, the Meowth swiftly the devours the pastry in two large bites. They don't even make it out of the doorway. They shuffle awkwardly out of the way, licking crumbs off their claws in the street.

Fine. We can do this from here.

[ You think she's just going to give up and leave? ]

I take it that this isn't just one of those evolutions. Which makes this very strange, because I came here with an entirely different Pokemon calling themself Siffrin.

[ That eye...this one more closely resembles the Siffrin she knows. Which means that the other's memory loss may have been something different entirely, though...it clearly didn't make much difference. They were both terrified of her anyway.

Enough.

So how could one get a Siffrin whose eye was able to be saved? The time loops only included their stay in Dormont; that's nowhere near far enough back to affect the attack or subsequent treatment. Were the time loops really their first time doing Wish Craft? Maybe it's an effect of a prior wish? They might have only just realized it, if that was the case. It fits, too, because... ]
