  3. Summary

    Pokémon has some of the most detailed world building of any game I’ve seen. Every Pokémon has its own lore to it. Imagine if there was an educational program to teach you about that lore. Imagine if the Wild Kratts existed in the Pokémon world, and instead of studying animals, they studied Pokémon.

    What if?

  5. Summary

    The Agency found Ollie stranded in an escape pod (which was not nearly as safe as he originally thought it was) in the middle of the ocean. Then they hired him as a handler for the EOD. Sure is good that he’s only a handler, because that definitely means this job is safe, and nothing will ever go wrong for him.

    Summary

    You linger outside Stratt’s office for the full two and a half hours she’s given you to decide, palming the fabric of your pants. They haven’t been washed in days, there just hasn’t been the time.
    COMPOSURE — Relax, you got this.
    LOGIC — Once you tell her no, you can go back to the actual work you’re meant for.
    HOMEOSTASIS — And when the Hail Mary launches in a few days, you can finally go back home - back to some sense of normality.

    Or,
    a retelling of Grace’s decision and Stratt’s gambit, written in the style of Disco Elysium.

    Summary

    Rocky visits Grace's life support quarters with some exciting news, some time into his recovery on Erid---the biodome habitat has finally been completed.

    It takes a step through the airlock and sinks down into rough sand and pebbles. I chirp and hop down after it. Grace has not seen the biodome yet, but neither have I, and in my enthusiasm I dart slightly ahead.

    Grace inhales so sharply that I turn to hear him better in a panic. “Grace? Grace, what is wrong? You are hurt?”

    My assumption is quickly corrected when, without warning, it bolts.

    Summary

    "I-" his words turn into a jumbled mess and I feel my claws clench. It's more than a little frustrating the way Grace keeps using new vocabulary without offering a translation for it. It probably has to do with grammar structure, but we've barely established +λ++ words.

    He can handle some grammatical sacrifices for the sake of ease, can't he? I definitely have.

    Grace presses one of his dull claws to his carapace. "-sleep now. I come back in +∀ +λ++ seconds."

    He takes another (clumsy) step backward and this time I do push my carapace into the barrier. He can't leave, the tunnel is too long for me to hear him whenever he's back on his spaceship. He's going to vanish and take that steady percussion beat within his chest with him. What if something happens to him while he's on his ship and he never returns? I need need need him.

    Erid needs needs needs him.

    "I observe."

    Grace is so caught up with making himself look trustworthy that he forgets aliens might be able to lie just as well as he can.

    OR

    Rocky lies about Eridian culture. What's Grace gonna do? Call an alien a liar?
