It had been a few weeks (Closer to a month, but who was counting!) since Angel had done that weird...not being a pokemon thing anymore, and he'd finally gotten used to the fact there was more of himself to deal with.
Though to say he'd been clumsy was an understatement. He still was to a point. He seemed to trip over everything, even nothing at all. More than once he'd seemingly tripped on thin air! He knocked things over without meaning to...with arms, and hands and feet and wings...there was a lot more of him than he was used to.
It was a frustrating time for him to say the least, and today was no different. After breaking several things within the orphanage he'd fled the building for the day, running as fast as he could (and falling multiple times as a result).
Finally though the orphanage was out of sight, and he was alone with his thoughts which weren't terribly happy. Oh sure, he was bigger now. He could help with things better. It was all stuff he'd heard before but he wasn't sure about things. That and of course he still missed being able to enjoy Luchador wrestling. It brought a wistful sigh from him. If only!
Angel kicked at a can with another sigh as he walked, enjoying the solitude. The orphanage had been so noisy ever since he stopped looking normal. Everyone found a reason to hang around him it seemed. So this...was actually nice.

Fei sighed unhappily as he walked. He didn't like this one bit. It was annoying to have to find another place to live again so soon. And he'd liked his little tree hollow too! Angrily he curled a fist before pausing and looking down at his curled fingers in shock. That was something he was still not used too. He followed the curve of his fingers on up to his wrist and from there along his arm his frown growing as he did so. He wasn't so sure how he felt about it. His size was problematic, but it did come with a few perks as he'd learned. Like being able to reach things that he'd been to short to reach before. And to be honest -and a little vain maybe- he was actually quite fond of his new face. But as far as the meowstic was concerned, the pros were heavily outweighed by the cons so far.
He sighed again with a little growl and continued his walk. Although it was less of a walk and more of a search, as it had been for the past few days. Every morning he woke up early, washed and set out in a new direction from his hollow in search of another place for him to make into his new home. As he walked, Fei's ears perked up at a sound he wasn't familiar with. Biting at his lip he considered for a while before setting out in the direction the sound had originated from, curious.
The closer to the sound he came, the more he could hear. That! He was certain that was a footstep. And...a sigh? He knew he must be close, so he peeked around the base of the tree in front of him carefully. Well, he wasn't sure who -or what- that might be. He watched for a moment or two before stepping out of his hiding place reluctantly. Who knew? Perhaps this....person...might know Brenny. The newly changed meowstic was eager to meet his friend again and see what the celebi thought of Fei's new look. With a deep breath to brace himself he looked over to Angel and forced a small -hopefully friendly- smile, "Hello."

Angel was startled out of his brooding, the kick he was aiming at the can going wide and he nearly stumbling as a result. Still, he whirled around with a blink of surprise that there was anyone else out here, let alone talking to him. A second blink followed, this kid looked like him. Well, not exactly like him. He wasn't a Hawlucha, but he looked like a pokemon who resembled a human...or a human who looked like a pokemon. He didn't care which way it was thought of, just that this kid looked that way, and that was like him, and he wasn't the only one who looked like this! This thought cheered him immensely, he'd been feeling rather freakish up until this point. The hello brought a smile to his face, and forgetting the can entirely gave a slight bob of his head. "Hello..." he was slightly wary, this was a stranger after all, and strangers were bad supposedly. Still...he didn't think he was in danger.

Fei faltered for a moment. He wasn't sure what to say now. The last time he'd met someone new had been Brenny, and the celebi had done pretty much all of the talking. He chewed thoughtfully at his lip for a moment before offering. "I'm Fei." He felt quite silly saying something so...lackluster...but he wasn't sure what else was expected of him. He offered another smile and stepped farther out into the clearing. "You...were you a pokemon too?" He examined the boy in front of him for a while, pondering what kind of pokemon he might have been. Not one that Fei had ever encountered, that was for sure.Lirilei Sorry for the delay, moving really beat the heck out of me!

It wasn't Fei's fault Angel wasn't being talkative. He wasn't used to dealing with people outside of the orphanage so this was a true test of his skills at this point! "I'm Angel...and yeah I was...well still sort of am by the looks of things. I'm a Hawlucha...what about you? I'm not sure I've ever seen one of your kind around the orphanage. Plenty of birds and stuff...but none like you. You look...I dunno sort of cat or foxish or something." and thus, likely bad around birds. Yet Angel wasn't worried. They were people-mon not pokemon after all. DarkHikari Sorry for the delay in replying. Between painting my apartment and general exhaustion I've had little time to write.

If Angel was being rude by the lack of conversation, Fei certainly didn't notice. The meowstic wasn't overly talkative himself. Although he wouldn't let that stop him from attempting to be friendly. He nodded when the other poke-boy offered his own name in return. "I'm a Meowstic. I've never seen a Hawlucha. So I guess that means we're both new to each other." He turned the rest of Angel's words over in his mind before looking confused. "What's an 'orphanage'?" He'd never heard of such a thing. But of course he'd never heard of a place where more than one breed of pokemon congregated at once either.Lirilei No excuse this time. I was just being a lazy loser. XD

Angel was glad that this Meowstic didn't seem to mind his slightly anti-social behavior, he was still trying to wrap his head around all of this. "An orphanage? Well...for humans its a place where kids go who don't have parents anymore. Or anyone to look after them. For the pokemon there...it's those who've been separated from their families or groups...or abandoned by trainers and stuff. The Natu and Xatu there take care of everyone till they're old enough and strong enough to go out on their own. I was supposed to be out on my own but now I look like this and they don't know what to do with me." Which was a problem for all of them he knew. DarkHikari No worries! Between my kids being out of school and the Meta, I'm all over in terms of remembering to reply to PD's. sweatdrop

Fei nodded and considered the idea. "Sounds like a very good place. With nice people. Do you like it?" For the meowstic at least, the idea sounded nice. A home where people cared about you and looked after you. With friends and conversation. His smile grew at the thought. But he was much to comfortable in his own little grove for now. Even if it was cold until he could find something a bit bigger to sleep in. His little tree hollow was too small to fit into now after all. "Is being a poke-person a bad thing then?" He had to admit that being a wild pokemon left him at a bit of a disadvantage knowledge wise. But Brenny had talked about it as if it were a good thing, so Fei was confused as to why it might be a problem for the orphanage.

"It's not so bad. It's really the only place I can remember. I was young when I was found on my own and hurt. They took me in and took care of me. I just don't like some of the rules, but I'm not in charge so I do what I'm told." even if it left him depressed in a way. "You know I don't know. It's different though. I've never seen anyone else like us before...and I'm around a lot of pokemon. So I don't know why me, and not one of them. Or any others for that matter. It's really strange." He gave a wry smile. "See, before I changed I was...well I guess the pokemon equivalent to a teenager...almost an adult. They were having me leave the orphanage to live on my own because I was able to do that without them worrying about me. Now though I resemble a human child, so they think I should stay, but I don't really fit in there now. It's confusing to say the least...for everyone there.'

The meowstic listened as he spoke of the orphanage in more depth, and about how he came to be there. "They must be good pokemon there then. I'm glad you found a nice home." He wished that he had found a place like that, but it didn't change that he was happy with his little clearing home. Even if it was too small now.
Fei nodded again and thought about it. "I met someone like us once. He said that the change was a good thing, so I want to believe it is." He smiled at Angel and tried to think of something cheerful to say. "Perhaps it means that we're special somehow."
"I can see how that could be worrisome. I hope it gets sorted out. Are you happy about being able to stay now?" He sincerely hoped that Angel was at least. He did seem to be fond of the place after all, and it was always hard to leave home behind to start anew.Lirilei Temp job and convention planning kicked my butt. Sorry!

"There are a lot of good pokemon there yes. The Natu and Xatu have taken great care of me since finding me." there was a smile at the mention of the other that the Mewostic had met. "I think it is. I'm still trying to get used to being different and not a little bird...but it's not so bad I don't think. I can help out better at the orphanage." There was a thoughtful look and he gave a shrug. "Kind of...I mean yes it's been my home a long time...but they don't want to let me be a Luchador...or watch it or anything...and I really liked that. So not so much...but I think I'm happier there than alone." DarkHikari No problem! Had a lot of stuff happening with my family so wasn't really writing much as a result.

"Then the change can definitely be considered good. Since it means that you can find new ways to be helpful." He hoped that his words would be helpful. Though he barely knew Angel, he truly felt like he was a good person and deserved to hear cheerful things about his new self. Its what Fei would want at least.
"Anything and anywhere is always better than alone." Fei's words seemed tinged with sadness and experience. After a moment he shook his head as if physically shaking the thought away. He tipped his head in curiosity. "Luchador? What is that? Or who?" By this point he was entirely curious. Angel spoke of the subject with such passion and longing that it would have been palpable even without Fei being a psychic-type.

"It's been really helpful in that case yeah. I can do some of the harder work that no one else could do easier. It's just harder for them to take care of me now, so that's not good." very not good as far as he was concerned really. Still they were all adapting well enough he supposed. "I agree. I remember when I was young and alone it was so scary. Though sometimes I like to be alone and that's when I leave for a few hours. There's a lot of pokemon there so it's always noisy." a little peace and quiet was always welcome. "Luchador? It's wrestling! Being a Luchador...a masked wrestler...that's my dream. But they don't want me to do that at the orphanage. Too dangerous. They've banned it from there." it made him sad to recall he wasn't allowed to watch the tv show he enjoyed so much. "Maybe some day...when I'm older."

"I guess I can understand the strain it might have caused with this happening so suddenly. But it sounds like everyone is adapting well enough. So they will have a better idea of what to do if it happens to someone else there."
Fei nodded in agreement to the assessment of needing peace from time to time. It was always nice to get your thoughts together or just enjoy the quiet sounds of the world going by, but not all of the time. He looked back up and quickly realized that Angel had started to answer his question. "It sounds like they did it to protect you, but you should hold on to your dreams. Study the non-physical parts now and then you'll be much better at it when you can do it when you're older. It sounds fun to me. Not something I would participate in, but fun to watch."Lirilei No rush on replying to this since I know you're feeling sick. Hope you start feeling better soon cuz that just sounds like hell.

"Mostly I guess. I think it's more me trying to adjust than anyone else." it was s till a weird sensation being so big, having hands, and all the rest though he did like it. "it's a whole lot of fun to watch but I'm not even allowed to do that now. So, hard to do any studying at all." there was a wistful sigh from the boy, and he shrugged a little. He was sort of backed into a corner at this point it felt like. He glanced up at the sky and sighed some. "I should probably go, before I worry someone and get in trouble." that was the other bad thing about still being there. He wasn't entirely free to do what he wanted, when he wanted. Yet.
