Mimic stood up. "If you'll excuse Mimic, please..."
Estro shrugged. "Sure, go ahead." Five seconds later, once Mimic was
in the bathroom, Estro looked at Maria with mild suprise. "You finally
got him to use contractions?"

#You were right, father. He's blabbed *everything*.#
#Mimic dissapointed, but thought so. Thank for help!#
#Hey, if I can't go home, I might as well make sure 'I' grow up right.
Making sure 'I' have a mother that Giovanni doesn't take away is part of
that.#
Mimic cast his mind around, looking for Maria. Although there were many
minds, looking for the most stressed-out made a useful filter. Even so,

"Tcsssh! That's monitored. Giovanni's squad is coming on board; they
think Mimic and Maria are here."
"They are."
"Yeah, but they think they're *here* here." Seth frowned. "Best way
out is...well, let's just say it's best not to karp about it."
Aerie blinked, then rolled her eyes. "Just for that, you go first."
She straddled the toilet seat, resting one hand on the handle, while
Seth leaned over it and transformed...
Seconds later, a small magikarp went down the drain, followed closely by
an equally tiny goldeen.
