《Pokémon Elemental High》Aether Experience, The start of a new bond

Fennel: First of all, I may have to shut off there brain
Clemont: What!? Why
Fennel: Well I believe that every has their own separate box in the dream world when they're sleeping
Clemont: I only read of bit of your theory a year ago, you said something like that now that I remember
Fennel: Yeah, and since I'm putting you to sleep you will have your own dream box. The problem is that I'm not 100% certain if you can get out of that box and into the dream void
Clemont: You're good at naming things, unlike me. But what do you mean by 100% certain, that's implies that you do have a way, does this have to do with the shutting off of the brain
Fennel: That's exactly it, I believe if I shut off a person's brain while dreaming it will break this sleep box and enter the dream void.
Clemont: That's a dangerous gamble, you could end up just killing someone, but why exactly do you need to shut down the brain
Fennel: I believe that everyone's consciousness is in the dream world, so shutting off the brain wouldn't kill this "person."
Clemont: -grabs a needle- Clemont what kind of drug is this? It's pink in color
Fennel: That's my custom made sleeping drug, it shuts down the body from the neck down in seconds
Clemont: Isn't this illegal?
Fennel: Yes I know
Clemont: Why are you telling me all this then?
Fennel: If Burnet trust you then I will too, and you're just adorable -pitches his cheeks-
Clemont: Can you stop. Ok back to this dream world thing, you say this drug will put a person into a deep sleep? So lets say I enter the dream void, how do I get back to the real world
Fennel: I'm not entirely sure, I have thought of multiple ways if a person would get stuck in the dream world. This person might have to get out of the dream world by him/herself. Another way is to use a special feather.
Clemont: A special wing? -Thanks to himself- Are you talking about the Legendary Pokemon Cresselia's feather!?
Fennel: -laughs- You actually got it with your first try, it took Burnet a few seconds to think about it
Clemont: If I remember in its description it is said while holding a Cresselia feather people or pokemon will have joyful dreams, but why bring it up like you're going to get a hold of its feather, it's a Legendary Pokemon of a reason

Fennel: -Goes to the other side of the room and places her hand on the wall-
-The wall opens up-
Clemont: What the!? -sees a case-
Fennel: -takes the case and opens it in front of Clemont
Clemont: Is that what I think it is
Fennel: Yes, it's a Cresselia feather
Clemont: How did you obtain that, it's extremely rare!!
Fennel: I don't know... -she said looking down- This has to do with why I want to go to the dream world so bad. Can I trust you?
Clemont: What do you mean "can I trust you", you already told me all of this so just go ahead
Fennel: You don't have to be rude about it! -sighs- I was found on a bleach 7 years ago, I had no memory of anything. So the ones who found me sent me to an orphanage in region 5 and that's when I found this feather in my hair. I don't know where it came from but when I held it, suddenly the name dream world came out of my mouth. Just a couple days after I was brought into the orphanage a lovely couple came and said they wanted to adopt me. Of course I accepted and I went to their house and found out they were scientists so I asked them to teach me everything they know. Another thing I didn't know was that they were friends with the famous Professor Juniper. I knew if I went with Junifer to region 5 that there would be more advanced technology for me to make some progress about the dream world. That's it basically -fake smiles- haha!
Clemont: You left something out didn't you, tell me everything
Fennel: So you can tell? You're smarter than you look
Fennel: Well it's true that I forgot my entire 7 years of life, but at some moment I remember being on the beach and a strange figure levitating above me, it was Cresselia. That's really all I remember.
Fennel: Enough about me, what about you Clemont?
Clemont: Me? Um....What do you want to know?
Fennel: What's your blood type!?
Clemont: O
Fennel: That's perfect!!! -quickly grabs a needle- You don't mind if I take a gallon of your blood will you -turns her head and smiles-
Clemont: A gallon!?!? Hell no!!
Fennel: 2 gallons?
Clemont: Why are you getting bigger!?!? I'm going to die!!
Fennel: Ok my bad........how about 3 gallons?

Clemont: -gives Fennel a murderous look-
Fennel: hmpf!!
Clemont: Why are you mad!? You're trying to take 3 gallons of blood from me!!!
Fennel: I just want to test different experiments with your blood, come on, please
Clemont: Why can't you take your own blood
Fennel: Cause I can't afford it...
Clemont Can't afford it?
Fennel: Nevermind
Clemont: Hey Fennel give me your arm
Fennel: Why?
Clemont: Just give it
Fennel: ... -slowly puts her arm out-
Clemont: -lifts her lab coat sleeve up and sees bandages covering her entire arm-
-They both look at each for a couple seconds until Clemont said something-
Clemont: As soon as I entered this room I smelled something weird, now I know it was blood. You also have way too many needles -picks a needle filled with the sleeping drug- You have been testing this drug on yourself, have you?
-They both were silent for a while-
Fennel: -takes a deep breath- You're right but that's not quite it, don't tell Burnet please... -takes off a bandages and reveals multiple cuts-
Clemont: -eyes widen-
Fennel: I been cutting myself when I'm dreaming. I cut marks on both my arms, legs, chest, and -pulls her collar down- my neck. Each cut represents how many times I entered the dream world, I counted a total is 2107 cuts around my body
Fennel: You might think I'm suicidal, or something like that......but that's not it. I can say that I have an addiction of some sort. I want to go to the dream world, even if it kills me, I must reach it, I can feel its presence everyday, but no matter how many drugs I put in my body, how many cuts I give myself, how many times I try adjust my dream emulator, I can't get out of this dream box. It's like an infinite paradox of failure!!! Even though I know one day I will die from all these side effects of my drug or even blood lost I just can't seem to stop myself -tears streamed down her face-
Fennel: I don't know why I'm telling you all this, but it felt good getting it all out cause now I know it's truly hopeless -grabs one of the knife off the table and quickly moves the knife towards her neck-
Clemont: -he quickly grabs her arm stopping her-
Fennel: Why did you stop me?
Clemont: Why did I stop you? You really think I would just stand here and watch you commit suicide.... -slaps her across the face-
Clemont: Don't be stupid!! -he goes towards the bed, lays on it and put on the shackles-
Fennel: What are you doing!?
Clemont: I'm going to try and enter the dream void
Fennel: No you can't, it's stupid to try, it's impossible
Clemont: I have no choice because you're just going to keep hurting yourself until you're dead, I won't let that happen so hurry up and put me to sleep
Fennel: But...
Clemont: I'll do it myself then -about to put on the helmet-
Fennel: Ok!! I'll help!
Clemont: Thank you, but before I get put to sleep can you explain to me how everything works again
Fennel: -takes a deep breath- Ok. This helmet is what I call the dream emulator. Its purpose is to collect signals from your brain and stabilize it incraise you have some sort of brain shock. These 4 shackles go around both your wrist and legs. Located in them are needles filled with a special sleeping drug I created. When in the body in a matter of 5 -10 seconds it completely shuts down the body and puts in a temporary sleeping phrase.
Clemont: That's all I need to know, now let's do this!
Fennel: Wait, it's too dangerous! I have been putting this drug into my body for years I'm not sure what it can do to you
Clemont: I'll take the risk
Fennel: But what if when I shut off your brain it just kills you
Clemont: Then don't
Fennel: Huh?
Clemont: You assume that turning off the brain means I can get out of what you call a "dream box." But what if I can break out of my own will, if it's possible then try atleast
Fennel: Clemont.....don't over do anything, just remember. It's not real.
Clemont: -does a thumbs up and puts on the helmet-
Fennel: I don't get how you can risk your life for someone you know for not even 20 minutes
Clemont: I have this one friend who would gladly risk his life for any people or pokemon in need. I think it's a good trait but only fools have it. I guess I want to try saving you or something corny like that. Let's go Fennel
Fennel: You're the first person near my age that actually listen to me and now trying to save me -a tear drops from her eye- Thank you
Clemont: Hmfp, no problem
-Fennel releases the sleeping drugs into Clemont body putting him to sleep-

Dungeon Crawler Katia
The aliens killed everyone on Earth...almost. Every structure, from the Taj Mahal to the lowliest lobster trap, vanished into the earth, killing everyone inside. The survivors were given a choice: Endure on the surface without food or shelter or tools, or descend into a world-spanning nightmare dungeon that is also a reality TV show. Katia, an art professor from Iceland who has given up her humanity to transform into a shapeshifting doppelganger, meets up with Carl and his cat, Donut. Together, the three fight to survive in a dungeon filled with Clarketech goblin murderdozers and pyramid-scheme fairy moonshine-makers. The above is, of course, describing Dungeon Crawler Carl. With DoctorHepa's (the author) permission I'm posting some fanfic to expand on Katia, one of the secondary characters who started off not getting as much exploration as I would have preferred. I started off writing chapters that matched up to canon except from her POV instead of Carl's; that lasted a couple of chapters before going off the rails and spinning off into a completely new story, which suggests I should really go back and renumber all the chapters as soon as I find some tuits.
