[Allen was having a very rough time of this transformation business. First he'd had to adjust to being much closer to the ground than before, including running on his hands...paws...whatever... and having a tail to deal with, and now he was facing the prospect of starvation if he didn't admit to himself that he had a problem he couldn't fix himself

[Lavi has been out at the market, grabbing a supply of food for a day or two when he decides to go up to Lookout Hill again. The board has been getting used now and then so it's only right that he goes to check it...

That's when he spots a Shinx going down the slope and looking rather weak. He knows it must be another newcomer.]

Hey, you all right over there?

[He gets closer then pauses, nearly stumbling over his own four feet. That scar, it looks so familiar...]

Allen? No way... Allen, is that really you?

[musical_lion]

[Someone is calling his name? His own voice is nothing like he knows it should be; it sounds way too cute. So the voice speaking to him is not one he recognizes, and he is not surprised. Even if it is someone he knows, he wouldn't recognize their voice if he can't recognize his own in this world, right? And yet... The speaker knows his name! How can anyone in this world know him?]

How do you know my name?

[He looks over at the speaker. Why does that fox-like creature have an eyepatch? And red earrings? ... and green eyes? .... Can it really be...?]

N-no way...

[lavivee]

It is you! I'd know that scar from anywhere.

[He lowers himself down to where Allen is, grinning. His tail's swishing from side to side and he's happier than he should be at seeing a friend here in this strange world.]

It's me, Lavi!

[He pauses, tilting his head.]

...You're a lion? A blue lion...

[Cue laugh. I'm sorry, Allen.]

[musical_lion]

[This can't be possible... and yet it has to be.]

Lavi... where are we? How did we get here? Surely you know that, right?!

[His fatigue is fading somewhat in the warmth of his excitement. Of all of his friends to encounter here, the one who would most likely know what's going on is certainly the best option. Not to mention, Lavi is some incredibly adorable small fox-like creature, far too cute to be taken seriously, eyepatch or not. Suddenly Allen doesn't feel stupidly too cute anymore.]

Blue lion? I guess so... I'm not sure what I am. Er, might not want to touch me, I seem to be carrying quite a static charge.

[His belly growls loudly, and his flinches. His feet ache, his stomach is contorting itself and he's stuck here in a world he doesn't recognize. But at least someone he knows is here, and at least it isn't someone who was witness to that debacle, like Lvellie

...E-excuse me...

[And here is Ruca the Torchic, now timidly approaching the newcomer. A very worried expression can be seen on his face. The Shinx doesn't look too well and there is no way Ruca would ignore that.]

...Are you alright?

[musical_lion]

[Allen looks over in surprise at a fluffy little bird-like creature.]

Er... hello... I'm... I'm okay, I'm just... my feet hurt.

[demonicbookworm]

Oh...

[he frowns with worry.]

...Do you need a place to rest? Or maybe... there's something else I could do to help?

[Luna is absently painting on a nearby tree when she hears Allen's distress. The Smeargle looks up, looks around, and spots the poor, limping little blue creature.]

Oh, my. Is something wrong with your feet?
