[It can't believe the first individual name anyone has ever called it by is "Cheese Guy".

Well, whatever. It'll hop down, electrifying the terrain as it lands. It only hinders the Torments, slowing their movements and occasionally hindering their attacks.]

Were you looking for a fight?

[It knows what a Dreamer's job is and all, but it still can't imagine deliberately antagonizing a bunch of Torments like this?]

[rubykomachi]

[It may need some workshopping. Gouda Guy? Mister Mozzarella? Parmesan Pal? Soleil will probably have better ideas when she hasn't gotten herself into a 10v1 match with some Torments.]

I just wanted to blow off some steam and these ones wanna spar all the time! So yeah!

[She takes advantage of the newly hindered Torments to get a sweeping whip strike in on three of them.]

Come on, help me out! It'll be a learning experience!

[tworo]

I suppose it will...

[It's gonna have to be at this rate! The Figment moves to help, though it's more cautious in its approach. It puts itself right in a Torment's line of fire, in fact! As the thing attacks, there's a flash of silver, and Miraidon successfully bounces its attack right back into its face.]

This is how you blow off steam?

[rubykomachi]

Hey, watch out! [Soleil then sees Miraidon manage to reflect that blow, which she honestly thinks is super cool. That question does give her pause.]

I mean! The Dreamsphere makes me feel better when I'm upset in reality! And when you're mad you should hit a pillow to deal with it?? So I thought combining the two might--[She ducks, and hits a torment with the butt of her whip handle.] --help!

[tworo]

Ah! Fair enough!

[It's probably a good use! Miraidon's using a tactic he's habituated himself to by now: slowing enemies with his electrical field, enough to make it much easier to meticulously intercept and reflect their attacks. He's obviously being very cautious, though - if he's at all unsure, he dodges rather than try.]
