Arguably, there should exist some solidarity amongst cat-people. Mutual respect, appreciator of cats to appreciator of cats. This may just be why the Alchemist wages no wars when stepping into the familiar laboratory that had once belonged to Professor Ash, even when fully armour-clad. It's a nice change of pace considering how many wars she has been waging lately. Hell, it was only an hour ago that she had been fighting a battle in the Corruption Zone... Her golden cat ears perk up when looking at her surroundings, tail as luscious as that of a Maine Coon swaying lightly. She looks at Dr. Bunya then, a smirk tugging at her lips. "I like what you've done with the place. Not sure Ash would approve of the dĆ©cor, though... Nor of the working conditions." Amused, she laughs lightly at her own words, handing over a fresh corruption sample. Then, she pauses, considering for a moment. "You need test subjects, right? Hmm..."It's not a question of if it should be done, it's a question of which of her PokĆ©mon should be put through this. There will likely be benefits, but there are also potential risks ā as is the case with most investments. So, she weighs the pros and cons in her head, and finally, she decides that the most optimal choice is the Charcadet that she releases from a PokĆ©ball then. "Alba here is up for it."Truly, Alba is clueless about what's going on, but she simply nods, having been taught to always listen to her trainer.

Adarsa stood there, working over his words. His chest still hurt, from both attacks. He cradled Carnation tight, fingers waving through the feathers. ".... Doctor Bunya?" He asked, voice quiet. "Um... if... do you? Um, stop-" Carnation had squiggled out of his grasp, and was pecking at the testing chamber. "I... if we encounter someone in Mistra, are... are they really here? Can we- Can we find them?"

"Thanks! I've almost finished breaking in Ashie's chair!" she looks over at a shockingly worn desk chair. "Nyaow, show me the test subject."
She rubs her hands together as she looks over Tuesday's Charcadet, but science waits for no woman, and she swiftly spirits both the knight and the sample away. Over to the machine.
"Zip zap beep boop, cover you with goop!" Bunya sings, as she seals the chamber shut She slams the button and nozzles spray a thick black cloud into the chamber.
In moments the cloud has cleared, and she watches for any changes, face pressed up against the glass in excitement. "It looks the same!" she says, disappointed. It's certainly anticlimactic compared to the two giant goopy horses.
"Oh well! Sometimes it takes a while to manyafest the changes. Let me know if you see anyathing nyasty!"

starlitlover arrives with a Pokemon, a sample, and a questions. Bunya does her best to deal with all three at once.
She loads the sample into the chamber. "Well sure! If they're really there then they're there, right?" She presses the button, and the chamber floods with black vapor. "But the real question is are they here," she pokes herself gently in the eye, "or are they up here," she pokes her forehead. "Corruptnyan can do crazy things. That's why I don't go nyear the big sources. I just study it here!" She shakes here head in amazement. "You'd have to be crazy to go into Mistrnya!"
The mist clears, and starlitlover's Pidove looks...normal. Well actually it looks less Normal than before, but there is no clear indication that Corruption has changed it.
"Damn! Anyather dud! Well, let me nyow if anything weird happens in the nyext few days."
PIDOVE'S PRIMARY TYPE IS NOW :: |

She holds a vial in her right hand, one of those precious Corruption samples that Bunya has apparently been sending people to Mistra to collect: fresh, high grade, and sizzling with anger whenever the Catalyst's prismatic light is reflected by lab-grade glass. The dark liquid is alive, moving within the vial as if attempting to recoil away and escape from her touch. Nothing good had come out of that trip to Mistra and Domino feels uneasy merely holding these drops of corruption through the safety of a vial, but she had come to the Professor Ash's lab in Briarbane regardless, because as uneasy as corruption may make her, that's a feeling she must brave if she wants to help. So, she stands there, cool as a cucumber. "Hey, Bunya. Question... I know you're studying the effects of corruption and all, but have you found a way to get rid of it for good? Cygnus has his beam, but that kinda exploded." A brow quirks, and as if proof of Domino's own words, rainbows are involuntarily emited by her own body, shining onto the lab's tiled floors. "If it'll help you find one... I guess I can let you use this sample on one of my PokƩmon..."She's reluctant for a moment there, but then, from a PokƩball she calls out the amorphous purple blob that falls to the floor with a wet plop, akin spilled Jell-O. The Ditto's beady eyes look up at Dr Bunya then, giving her one of it's silly and wide smiles in oblivious happiness. <'Gooo?'> Blobert coos. Out of all of her PokƩmon, Blobert may just be Domino's favourite. Ditto have always been Hilda's favourite, at least, but that may also be why she feels as if he's the best choice for this. She believes in him, and if any PokƩmon can withstand fucked up experiments, that has to be a Ditto.

Bunya scoops up the Ditto and puts it in the chamber. She presses the button and black vapor engulfs the wiggling pink blob. "Remewve it for good? Why would I want to do that?" Bunya asks, tilting her head to the side. "Corruptnyan is super duper dangerous, but that doesn't mean we need to get rid of it! That's nyansense. We've just got to nyanderstand it."
"Half the time it makes people sick, and the nyather half it makes Pokemon stronger! It's fantnyastic!" She beams at Domino with manic pride.
The chamber clears, and Ditto is returned to Domino. It doesn't look different, and no amount of wiggling or prodding produces exciting results. Bunya shrugs. "Like I said, fifty-fifty. Let me knyow if you see anyathing weird."
Ditto's rarity has been reduced to Common (+0) |

<Run this through me again, please?>
Comet let out a sigh, but he supposed Kimchi's doubt was not unwarranted. After all, they were going to make the trek back to unfamiliar territory after traveling to the Brisbane Settlement, and since he wasn't thinking of during the tutorial quests yet, they didn't have the fast travel feature unlocked. Also, whenever Comet would talk about it, he was rather vague about what actually was going to happen in that "forbidden zone" that was Mistra - a place that was supposed to be open for access for the trainers, but was covered in some kind of...whatever that basically had a lot of bad juju.
And there was a quest tied to it, apparently, which was why they were here, in this lab spot with a very questionable, short scientist. Business appeared to be slow, with questionable and unknown things bubbling behind her, and said professor was just playing something on her phone with her feet up on the desk. āThe short answer is that I need to check this out at least once for a requirement. Don't worry too much about it. I caught that Pumpkaboo for a reason, remember?ā
Kimchi sighed, <Yeah yeah, but I'm really not liking the look of this...>
They walked to the desk, with Comet's hands in his pockets. āHello, I'm here to pick up whatever it is I need to head to the Corruption Zone. Just gonna play catch up in case something happens, y'know.ā |

Kazuki tosses the sample in his hand. Heās unsure where it came from, reallyā heād shut his eyes wandering the Steppe and woke up at Precipice, fully healed (or as healed as his avatar can become) and accompanied by Pansear, who had refused to explain. No matter how much he had cajoled the PokĆ©mon, he couldnāt muster a sign out of himā not even an eye roll. He was just handed this tube before Pansear returned to his ball.
Regardless, he knows how to deal with it.
āYo, Cat Prof!ā he says, already grinning. āHowās about a round 2?ā
He tosses out a familiar ball, and the lab once again shaking with the appearance of a familiar horse. Mudsdale blinks at the shining metal all around, scrunching her eyes upon recognizing the place.
āYou donāt mind, do you? You seemed to like the twins.ā He pats Mudsdaleās back. āLetās see how those repairs fare.ā
With that, he began pushing his PokƩmon into the chamber, capable of it only thanks to the Fighter class since Mudsdale had resorted to sitting down and turning into a 2,000-pound weight.

It had taken a good while before he managed to bring himself to Bunyaās lab, and his mind continues to wander even inside it. His first venture to Mistra had beenā heās not sure. He knew the concrete events that unfolded ā the strange mass of Corruption, Lacrimosa, what he had to do ā but it feltā¦ distant. It didnāt hold the weight he thought it should in his heart, as if only this numb guilt would be carried over to the real world.
Come to think of it, he never really noticed the actual immersion effect of the WorldScreen. Perhaps this is the Pain Reduction kicking in, blurring his experiences, making it smooth enough to swallow.
He shakes his head, snapping out of his thoughts. āAh, sorryā Iām here to submitā¦ this?ā he handed the Corruption sample over to the peculiar professor. āThereās a testing phase to this, yes? What exactly does that entā¦ Gumball!ā
His Popplio has managed to stealth his way out of his trainerās sight, flop onto the control panel to open the chamber, and promptly shot himself in like a bowling ball, hitting the interior wall as if it were pins.
āHeās going to be okay, isnāt he?ā Saint stammers, looking ready to go over there and pry his partner out.

Bunya loads in the sample. "Round 2. Fire!" she shouts, jamming a thumb down on the big red button. The chamber floods with black mist, engulfing Kazuki 's Mudsdale. "Did you give them twin nyames?" she asks Kazuki. "Like Horse Nyan and Horse Mew?"
The chamber clears, and Bunya inspects the horse inside. "It looks weird, right?" she asks tactfully. Bunya squints, crosses her arms and taps her foot, trying to puzzle out what has changed. "Whatevnya, I nyan't wait around all day! I'm sure it was a successful experiment."
Mudsdale's secondary type is now "Okay?" Bunya asks, her head cocked to the side like a bob-cut owl. "He's gonnya be better than okay! He's gonnya be an experiment!" she activates the machine and the chamber floods with black mist. As it clears, something is off about the Popplio. Maybe the way it moves. Something about the previously fluid movement is missing, replaced with an unknown quality. "See! Good as nyew!" Bunya says, giving Saint a grin.
Popplio's primary type is now "Whelp! This was fun, but it's time for something nyew," Bunya says to herself. She leans back in Ash's old chair, her feet up on the desk. She squints at a spot on the ceiling as she thinks about her next move. "I nyeed some more hands on experience. I nyeed to see what Mistra is all about! Maybe even get nyself some snyamples."
She pats her pocket, which already has her essential supplies in it: Her Pokeballs, fish jerky, fingerless gloves, and a small hand trowel. She grins, the pieces of her masterful plan falling into place like a dropped jigsaw. "Look out Corruptnyan Zone! Here come's Bunya!"
