Event: The Reveal Glass

[indigo_league]

Across the Pokémon world, characters may have spotted a falling star last night. Or at least, one would think that's what it was: a naturally occurring phenomenon, rather than a legendary artifact. Specifically, the Reveal Glass fell to earth during a fight among a group of legendaries started by the return of a long-lost family member. But it's probably best to leave them to handle all that themselves, while your characters deal with other consequences.

The Reveal Glass shattered upon impact, and the shards scattered throughout Kanto, Johto, and the Sevii Islands… And made their way into the hearts of your characters. But bleeding isn't the concern here. Instead, the impact will hit when a character first looks into any reflective service. An eerie feeling hits them as they're transported to the Mirror Dimension.

While this realm can be many different things for different characters, one thing is always true: It is a place of honesty, where true selves are revealed. Those struck by a shard will find themselves facing truths they are no longer able to hide, and now must accept. Fortunately enough, even those who haven't been struck will be able to enter the Mirror Dimension during this event via a reflective surface to offer help. By the end of the 29th, things will return to normal. Characters will be back in the usual Pokémon world and their hearts will be rid of the shards, but time is strange in the Mirror Dimension, and the experience may feel like it goes on far longer than a day. Or, maybe that's just the emotional exhaustion.

The Reveal Glass plot is here. You can swing by the event info post for additional details and FAQ, and play out your characters’ enforced therapy on this post. As with most VR events, this plot is entirely optional and your characters don't need to take part at all.

Radley would be happy for Ecruteak too. He's been there and could easily teleport over, or bicycling over would be easily doable as well.

It's one of Radley's favorite dishes to make, and he knows Cosmo follows his recipe well.

The Pokemon are certainly hungry and quickly start eating. The Espurrs have almost human-like manners and Psychically use cutlery to handle the food. Cosmo eats holding the cutlery with her hands, as does Shadow the Riolo with his paws. The others mostly dive in eating straight out of the bowls.

Radley smiles as he watches them. It's a peaceful, pleasant way to share a meal.

He wonders if they should just all eat quietly or if he should attempt to make conversation. He wants Keldor to feel completely at ease and not have to worry about talking if he doesn't want to. Perhaps he should wait and let Keldor speak if he wants to, on a subject of his choosing.

On the other hand, Radley tends to feel more at ease when there is conversation. It feels more welcoming and happy. Maybe a simple subject that doesn't require much thought....

"There's probably going to be more Eevee eggs soon," he says. "Maybe more kitty eggs too." He smiles at Cuddles the Skitty and Elliott the Espurr. They meow happily.

And given that Keldor's Roaring Moon, Takani, is a swift flier, Keldor wouldn't have any difficulty in flying over to Goldenrod to visit Radley, should he wish to.

So it all works out, in the end.

And the food is working on his disposition. A good meal can help most people feel somewhat better. Or the rest of their day.

Once again Keldor is slow to react to what someone else has said. He blinks a little when he looks up.

"Your Eevees are of a mind to produce children?"

"Eevee!" Evie says proudly, and nuzzles Evan.

"Some of them sure seem to be," Radley chuckles. Then he's not sure if this is a good topic or not. Maybe discussing any kind of parents, even animal ones, is not a good idea right now.

"The cafe's been pretty busy lately too," he says, casually switching the topic. "We're trying some new recipes on the menu that have been popular. This is one of them."
