Part 7: My Heart Splatters
PLOT: Finichi has help trying to hook up with Krum. The irony is... the one helping her is the one who originally KILLED Krum. Awkward.


"What do you want, anyways? I have a lot on my mind."

Shortly after wind of Tashy's announcement, a certain pair of Pokémon had exited the former Stalkers residence. Being specific, Finichi the Garbodor and Sensin the Vespiquen. And for very obvious reasons, the garbage pile was wrongfully very wary of her companion. It seemed like Sensin didn't mind this, though.

"Whoa, chill out," The Bug type had spoken while extending her palms. "I heard what's going down today. You wanna set up with Krum, don'tcha?"

"W-well, yes," Finichu sputtered back, "But why does that concern you? You KILLED him in Silvercoal!"

"So? He's here now, ain't he?"

"THAT DOES NOT CHANGE THAT YOU COMMITTED MURDER!"

The heap of garbage had panted for a few seconds before sighing and turning around. Her eyes fell onto Krum, who was having a friendly talk with Fleck the Masquerain. A fellow Silvercoal victim, except killed by Ignos instead of Extol. "It's gonna be just like Pokédachi Life..."

A passer-by Mawile (Nulan from Season 1) had overheard the game name and briefly stopped to talk. "How many resets have you gotten now?"

"Twenty-five. Five of those times my Poké character wanted to hook up with Poko, and ten of them were Turren! The rest were insignificant."

After Nulan left the scene, Sensin had hovered over to Finichi with a bright expression of glee written all over her face. "You know... I CAN make it like Pokédachi Life! Remember how Yurtag and Marisha became a thing?"

Finichi racked her brain for an answer, and gasped when it came back to her. In Sensin's copy of the game, Vendy had set the latter up to hang out which had lead to them dating. And so the Poison type was eager to get this plan on the roll.



The set up had worked absolutely beautifully. The pair of Poison types were having the time of their life all day, and Sensin was watching from the shadows all the while. A wide grin had washed over her face as she realised while love may not be her strong suit, it turned out helping others find love was something she almost excelled at.

By the end of the day, the pair had met up just outside of the Stalker Residence as Finichi rubbed her functional trash arm behind her head. "S-so, erm... I had a lot of fun today! D-do you want to, you know..."

Sensin watched from a small bush, making hand movements to signal now was the chance she had before she blew it. And the Garbodor took the hint and acted on it. "...do you want to do that again?"

An initial laugh from the Muk made her assume she was rejected but Krum was very quick to state the reason for his laughter. "Finichi, I could TELL this was a set up. Sensin, while having killed me, sure knows how to put two and two together! I'd be happy to head out with you again!"

Finichi teared up from glee at the confirmation she was now paired with her crush, but a loud shout had prevented her from screaming. One that could only come from Daxu.

"YES! The Duraludon Steel hoodie! Just in time for the UNITE DURALUDON RELEASE PARTY, HECK YEAH!"

The trio had glanced at each other before looking back up to Daxu's window. "You know... I heard rumours Azumarill is gonna get in the game next." Krum had spoken out.

"How do you think Taelia would react to her getting into UNITE?"

"Dunno. Salsha's gonna be happy, though. New Battle Pass gives Sylveon a BEAUTIFUL new costume. Also hi again Nulan."

And so, a moment of romance and happiness had quickly melted into a UNITE based discussion. And I know two things happened that day: Finikrum became a thing, and Daxu's release party went chaotically well.

FINISH

Not much to say this time other than if any moment of any part feels good enough to draw in your eyes, go ahead! Fanart of this silly thing of mine is more than appreciated here.
