Zeran nodded. "I've read a bit, especially since meeting Diana, and can definitely say I agree with Clarence. I'm in the middle of testing out if having a few of the petcha berries every day will help at all when poisoned. Going to give it about a month before I ask Seren to help me out again. Besides, I need to butter the guy up. He's so sweet and gets really distressed when I ask him to help with these poison experiments, so I try to do something really special for him to make it up to him."

Noemi was writing again to respond to Trevor, but she could also talk to Diana as she wrote, it just meant she'd write a little slower. "I... can't completely remember. I know when I'm holding Clarence it's... similar to being human again, but not quite right, mostly because I know it's not my body, and I'm not alone in my head, if that makes sense. I guess in some ways it's not so different from being a yamask, I can just do different things like this than I could as a human."

Noemi slid the notebook back to Zeran, but instead of just picking it up and reading it, he pulled a deep breath, gazing at Noemi. "Might... be easier for you to talk if you possessed someone, yeah? How's that work?"

Noemi perked... and held out her mask to Zeran. Zeran glanced at Clarence, then gave Noemi a smile and a nod. He was a bit nervous, always was when trusting someone to this extent for the first time, but she was young, and Clarence trusted her. So he accepted her mask and... put it on.

It wasn't too unlike being possessed by Queenie, feeling himself mentally fall into a muzzy fog before he was aware again of what was going on. (Hello?)

(Hello. You're okay with this? I'll let go if you want.) Noemi was a little nervous herself, never sure how someone would react to her.

Zeran couldn't smile, but he would be if he could. (I'm good. Just keep me in the loop?)

(Of course, you'll be able to hear everything anyway.)

(Good.) Zeran let himself settle, awake but "on the edge", aware, but not alert.

Noemi, now in Zeran's body, turned a bit towards Trevor. "I'm sorry to hear that spirits have it so bad where you're from. I don't know what makes it different here, and I'm not so sure some pokemon that were once humans aren't mad, though I'd not necessarily call any of them evil either. I know my buddy was also human once, but he doesn't remember much about that time." Noemi leaned a bit to peek under the table a little, enough to get a better look at her friend. "He doesn't remember his name, so he's... my buddy."

Buddy made a soft little "ooo" sound, just an acknowledgment that she was talking about him.
