[Hey, it's Ariana again! It seems even the cold weather won't stop her from being outside on the beach. She's found a beach chair, and has bundled herself up in a blanket with a magazine she's reading. ...Or seems to be reading. The cover SEEMS to be of vogue or something equally average. ...If you peek over her shoulder, you'll see an article

[...from behind, that hairstyle looks like...

...oh, wait. That's that Executive woman, isn't it-

...

WELL, IF LYRA IS STEALTHY, OBSERVATION COULD BE A GOOD WAY TO FIGURE OUT SOME KIND OF STRATEGY IN CASE THIS ONE IS HARD MODE...

...of course those Pokemon might notice her before Ariana does, because Lyra is not particularly good at stealth]

[fixyostrays]

[Gloom notices the intruder, waddling between Ariana and Lyra and making a fuss. Which, of course, gets Ariana's attention. Somewhat.]

What're you doing? Keep practicing.

[nintentrainer]

[OH NO, LYRA HAS BEEN SPOTTED...!

...well, no point in running...]

...

Hey!

[fixyostrays]

What?

[The beach was where she first ended up on Awesome Island and she decided to revisit it, but this time she sees you and your Pokemon here. She's still fresh, so she hasn't seen any doubles of herself, alternate universes or time related things yet.

But that is about to change as she approaches the scene. Your red hair make her curious.]

[fixyostrays]

[Red hair and same general facial structure. She's still reading.]

[hustleforpride]

[Usually she minds her business and doesn't approach strangers if needed but.]

Excuse me...

[fixyostrays]

Eh?

[nomorestrays]

I see Gloom's aim hasn't improved much. [And this is why Gloom is not an inside pokémon.]

[fixyostrays]

It really hasn't.

[nomorestrays]

Ekans appears to be doing better, though. Overall, an improvement.

[fixyostrays]

Wish I could train 'm more than just watching.

[And here comes Pete, with one of his derpy Koffing. It. It is floating upside down...]

Yo, Ari!

[fixyostrays]

Hey, Pete.

[allyostrays]

[And now he's slinging an arm around your shoulder, Ariana. Hope you don't mind!]

Whatcha readin', babe?

[fixyostrays]

Bitches whining about their weight.

[Slapping the magazine shut.]
