Rating: PG-13 for fanservice
Log:

Today had been full of hard training for Litchi and Yoko. While it had been nothing less than enjoyable, neither of them could find it within themselves to wind down as they had usually done. It had also been decided that the both of them were also in desperate need of showers (for womens' standards, anyway) so the two of them agreed to meet at Violet's bathhouse within the hour. Yoko had spent the time seeking out some quality shampoos and bodywashes to spoil herself and her friend with.

Yoko finds herself entering the bathhouse just a few minutes earlier than an hour, surprised to find that it was actually pretty empty. She decides to have a seat in the changing room, waiting for Litchi to show up.

Litchi gives a soft sigh, sinking lower into the water. No plans to move on... as much as she wants to stay with her newfound friends of the Dai-Gurren, she also has been fighting down uneasiness, wanting to get moving to find Arakune. He can't be far... and she's gotten a lead on the right kind of Pokemon to give curing him once and for all a try. All that remains is finding it and catching it. And then finding him, of course.

Chinhou quirks her head off to one side at her trainer, who shakes her head.

"I've been thinking of heading out to see if I can find one of these 'Natu' Pokemon anywhere around here. I don't think I'd go very far from town, but... I should probably at least look."

"Oh..." Yoko mumbles thoughtfully as she starts working a lather farther down her hair.

"Have you seen if you can contact anyone on the network to see if they'd be willing to trade with you?"

"I haven't had a chance quite yet. Besides, I don't know what I would trade, unless someone was in the market for that Drifloon."

She pauses, unconsciously making a small contented noise as Yoko works through her hair. "Maybe I should catch something else..."

"Couldn't hurt. What if you went out and caught a bunch of them that others might be interested in, then put up an offer on the network? Someone will be bound to bite, I think."

Yoko works her way farther down. "What's so special about this Natu, anyway?"

"Someone on the network told me that they're capable of seeing through time. It's a bit of a long shot, but... I think that would let me help Lotte find himself again."

She hugs her knees absently. "...I realize it sounds ridiculous, but the problem is, he remembers too much. He can't remember what timeline he's standing in because he can see all the possible timelines he could have existed in. I think -- I hope -- that a Pokemon capable of finding what different realities his mind has wandered to would be able to help lead him back to one place."

"I see..." Yoko responds. "That sounds like a real headache, not knowing what time you're in..."

"It's... absolutely terrifying. I went through it myself and honestly... I've never felt so frightened in my life."

Just one more reason to be grateful she's here now.

Her tone hardens with determination. "But knowing that... I have to try to save him. And from escaping it myself, I know it's possible here. It's just a question of how."

Yoko meets her determination. "I'll see you with him. Whatever it takes on my end." Then, she nods. "And once I tell Kamina what's going on, he'll be that much more inclined to move on."

Yoko gathers up the water bucket once more, filling it with water. "Watch out, she says, as she begins to pour the water to rinse out Litchi's hair.
