“I was part of a team, we did various types of jobs….”

“As simple as common errands, as complicated as rescues… but our main job was to protect others and the land………….”

“Lunch is here. You can grab some if you want to, Miss”

Jasmine: Woah!

Rory: Hey, if you need a little help, let me show you what to do! I’m the best fisherman where I’m from, I can show you a couple tricks!

Shinju: “… phew. Sorry about that. It definitely doesn’t bother me! Not at all…”

Shinju: “Don’t try to pressure me into evolving into an Espeon, if that’s what you’re here for. I already have enough pamphlets, thanks.”

Ciel tried not to stare as the ninetales entered their establishment. There was someone who held herself with an air of confidence and power. The leafeon took a breath as she approached, and, oh dear, it was time for this question. Ciel knew it would come up eventually, it was bound to at some point.

“Ah… Well I suppose it’s fair to say a little of both. I suppose it’s best not to hide it, my natural talents are part of what make me good at this job. The truth is, I’m not really what I seem.”

It started with color, the tips of Ciel’s extremities turning pink. Then form, their body melting down, losing a distinct shape, finishing in the full pink hue and gelatinous form of a ditto.

“I’m uh, not much to look at like this though…” Their voice hadn’t changed between forms. Not shortly after the words were spoken, the ditto transformed again, the process the exact reverse of what was seen before, the pink, amorphous blob changing and spreading out, gaining tans and greens and browns. It didn’t take long for Ciel to regain their old leafeon shape, though their ears, tilted back, contained a lot more pink than before.

So I drew an Arcanine.
