He would chuckle, looking to Copper with a closed-eyed smile. “Thanks. That means more than you probably think. You wanna set a time and place, or are you free now?”

“I need to shake off the rust.” Holding a Pokeball in hand, tossing it up, catching on the way down. He'd been repeating this for a few minutes now. “...that, and I feel more... awake, recently? Sharper. I wanna see if those instincts carry into battle.”

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 17/07/2025

“...I wanna battle someone.” Oh? How surprisingly unlike him. If nobody was around to hear that, maybe he'll ask around, or sub in at the gym this week...

“Oh, uh- hope that ain't an assumption I'm makin' there. Don't wanna push for anythin' if you're not feelin' up to it, heheh...”

“O- oh, shoot, I'm sorry if that was a surprise, I didn't exactly... expect it either, heheh.” His hand had, however unconsciously drifted to grab Lu's hand again. It was definitely thanks to Lu he wasn't so shaky right now. “...y'know, I always dreamed of havin' friends all over the world.” 》

jamcat Jammy missed some words. Like, the crook of her neck. It's still shoulder region. Boy has respect, I have brain fog. 🙏

Jasper would swallow his anticipation, and slip up behind the woman Lillium pointed out prior, wrapping one arm around her waist, using the other to grab her shoulder... Before hesitantly, though almost... excitedly bit into her neck. Why did blood have to taste so good, now..?

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 17/07/2025

He would raise a finger in protest, but opt against saying anything again. Seems as though this was the norm, now. He'd best get used to it... At the very least, he knows how to be quiet. And his body felt lighter. So, slipping up behind someone shouldn't be too hard. “Okay. Okay, I'll try...” 》

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 15/07/2025

“...uh-” He stammers a moment, face heating up at the mere suggestion. “I- I mean, I can. I know I can. It's just a matter of whether or not I'm gonna be able to uh... to bring myself to.” Tugging at his collar once again, he would gulp, before looking at Lillium. “You sure this is... okay?”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 13/07/2025

He would gulp, tugging at his shirt collar. Would that have been him if he hadn't gotten curious? ...now that he thinks about it, it doesn't sound that bad. “I mean, that ain't all that surprisin'. It is gonna take some gettin' used to, though, not bein' human anymore...”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 13/07/2025

“I resent that as a Gym Leader, sir. I'll be facin' you once my team's in tip-top condition. And me. I also gotta be in tip-top shape...”

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

“When it doesn't hurt to look outside, absolutely..!”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

“Uh... no. Not really. But I prefer knowin' how to fend for myself. Mean, fishin's easy. Can't be much different, right?” Oh, sweet summer child...

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 10/07/2025

He would squint, looking up slowly before taking the glasses, with a muffled ‘thank you.’ After slipping them on, and blinking a few times, the world was back to tolerable levels of crystal-clear. Thank goodness... “Thank ya, darlin'...”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 10/07/2025

He squeezes his eyes shut, covering his face with a sleeve. “...that offer for huntin' lessons still on the table..?” Muffled, but loud enough to hear beneath his little cocoon.

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 10/07/2025

jamcat That feel when Jasper used to wear contacts. He doesn't need them anymore.

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 10/07/2025

“I can see very, very far...” Disoriented by his keen senses.

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 10/07/2025

“Naw, naw. It's annoyin', sorta? But it's more like... an allergy. I don't got that. It's actually not that much different. Just feels like my senses were open, or never really workin' at full steam.”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 10/07/2025

“...head hurts.” Jasper doesn't drink...

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

jamcat Ohhhh? That would help him immensely, I think. He is a soft boy. The thought of drinking from people even if they're willing is an iffy prospect for him. ;v;

010

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

Noooo no no, this was a thing happening behind the scenes. XD

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

Twitch. “Ehh... well, I'm not an obligate blood feeder. But I'd be lyin' if it ain't a tantalizin' thought.”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

I announce this as if it changes nothing, merely because Jasper will probably be the kindest vampire in existence.

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

jamcat Ogey. Pretty boy is a vampire now. Tada!

Above the two, now, was an Aerodactyl, towing the cab much faster than the Corviknight before. Now normally, Jasper would be horrified at what just happened. But... “That... was amazin'! And it's an Aerodactyl! I didn't know they registered other Pokémon for the flying shuttle service..!”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

It takes all of a second, leaving the two feeling lighter than air as the cab hangs suspended by... well, nothing, for a brief moment. But as soon as it was let go, allowing the pair to see the Corviknight and its pilot fly off back to Galar, it became apparent what their original pilot meant. 》

100

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

“Bingo.” Not much else to say on the matter. But he's still not saying it outright, at least until he has those urges more under control. “I like it. The taste of iron stuck with me, I guess.”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

the horizon, with another pilot perched on its back. “You remember that? What'd he mean by that..?”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

“...hey, didn't the pilot say somethin' about a layover?” It was a genuine question. He hadn't exactly been able to hear from the pilot, given the fact they were in the air... one small issue about flying shuttles. Though, as Jasper turns his head back, what looks to be an Aerodactyl appears on 》

100

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

“Y-yeah. Recently, I got a taste of somethin' real bloody. At a restaurant.” Tacked that last part on there, just in case... “Don't get me wrong, it tasted great! But... now I can't think about anything else.”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

“Well, uh... it's red meat. Guess I could phrase it like that.” Not like that would be shameful to admit. That's probably the best way he could phrase it without being obvious. “Always like my meat on the rare side, but it's been gettin' so raw, might as well be huntin' it myself.”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

I mean, if I remember art class right, Blue is a cool COLOR... Soooo...

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

“Well, if you ask me..? You grew into a pretty fine person. But that's just my opinion.” Jasper smiled, leaning his head on the window before looking back. “I can always appreciate someone who's genuine. Themselves.”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

“Guess you could say that..?” It was a little hard to explain, without possibly freaking her out. Then again, given her current state, who's to say she would freak out? “No, no! Not starvin'. Just been dealin' with some bad cravin's recently, honest...”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

“Not really. Not that that's really the issue, anyway, but I don't eat everythin' I catch regardless. More of a mind-clearin' activity than anythin'.” Smiling. Though, it did seem a little forced... unlike him. “I just have these cravings recently. Like, real recently...”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

I'm good! Well, I'm getting there. It's been a rough few days, but it's been healing. The writing actually helps when I can focus. Today has felt the best out of the last few tbh.

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

jamcat Just as a little aside, I have a private server that has a channel specifically for keeping up with threads I haven't responded to yet. I also still have an unfortunate toothache, so I'm still a little distracted by the discomfort. Oomfs, ships and storylines are getting priority. ;;

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

“Oh! Hey, Natsuki...” He was still the same old Jasper. He really did seem a bit under the weather, though. “Oh, I'm just, uh... hungry. Real hungry...”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

jamcat No way everybody is actually giving poor Ingo the most concerning ways to handle this. 😆😭

No apologize. You needed rest after a rough week and you took it. And you're always free to take as much as you need if you need more. We're here for you no matter what.

“Might've been some bumps along the way, but not every road is easy. Wouldn't have had it play out any other way.” He looks off to the horizon for a moment, smiling with a little scoff. “Few years makes a helluva difference.”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

He couldn't help but snicker at that, growing into full on laughter. He wasn't exactly one for profanity, unless he was comfortable with the person. But he knew exactly how that felt. “I feel that way about myself, too, actually. I grew how I wanted, and experienced what I wanted.” 》

“I mean... makes sense, given the career she wants to get into.”

000

—𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 @olivinepride.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

“Really? She wants to be Professor Oak's assistant?” A moment of thought. “Probably a better choice than Elm. He's nice, but gosh, he gets distracted easy...”
