An insidious plot! Be careful what you wish for, girl!

Who: Lash, Uxie
What: Lash successfully locked away the man she believed to be responsible for the April Fool's Day pranks. Uxie begs to differ.
Where: Uxie's office
When: May 24
Warnings: Uhhh. Sinister pixie?

Uxie really did hate to meddle.

But sometimes, a little intervention could be worth it. He'd been awfully patient these last two months, but now... ah, things were certainly about to get interesting. All that was left was for the wunderkind to come to him.

Uxie's office had changed since Lash had last paid a visit. Uxie was still curled up on a nice, soft cushion on top of his desk, but the barebones interior had been made far more comfortable with the addition of several potted plants. A small zen fountain provided the soothing background noise of trickling water. The dish of Sour Patch Kids remained, though the dish was looking emptier than before -- clearly, Uxie had been snacking.

One other familiar sight remained. A single stone, left over from Uxie's fortune telling. Labradorite. He'd drawn it out specifically for the occasion. This rested conspicuously in front of him.

It was like receiving both compliments and insults at the same time, and for some odd reason, Lash couldn't help but think back to Sonja. Their beautiful chess games with people's lives...terrible thoughts. Terrible dark thoughts. She couldn't see herself being normal, unfortunately.

"I'm eighteen," she told him, not sure where she was going with it. Maybe to prove she wasn't a teenager anymore. It was rare for Lash to be this confused. "Besides, being raised like I was, created for war...it's hard to think otherwise. Tell me, if Arceus did create you to be the root of all knowledge, do you see yourself thrust in a similar position too without a choice of what you wanted to be, or did you only become it's herald only after you accepted it as such?"

The question if fate was predetermined or if you made it your own. She remembered having long discussion with Xatu about it, and maybe she was just hoping that the being of knowledge might have a suitable answer.
