Okay, okay... So I felt like doing a bit of Liliopshipping :D I already have all three of the chapters done, so I'll post them up over the days... :D What can I say? I love this pairing! This takes place after "Comforting Her", since I wanted to do a sequel thing. What, SU's done a sequel of some sort, the world is ending! :O

Anyways, this is big only the lake trio, since I love them, with Mesprit being completely insane and kind of cruel with her heart in the right place at the same time. You'll see.

Anyways,

FIC!

Azelf wasn't exactly sure what was going on.

On second she was floating groggily into the living room, and the next she was moving backwards, literally being dragged by the tails via the force that she was too sleepy to fight. Instead, the small blue legendary tried to figure out where exactly she was being pulled to, but the gray, rocky walls were nothing but blurs to her glazed eyes. She probably should have been alarmed that she was practically being kidnapped, but her brain was still asleep, so the Being Of Will hadn't made the connection yet.

Suddenly the pulling jerked her roughly down to the ground, and she dropped into a chair, nearly knocking it over from the momentum of her previous movement. Through her slitted amber eyes, Azelf spotted a smudge which made its way to the door quickly, looking into the hall before closing off the only entrance- and exit- to the room. A click was heard as the lock was turned, and the smudge started to come towards Azelf, who managed to growl slightly, all the while rubbing at her eyes as she tried to get them back into focus.

"Where am I? What do you want?" The small legendary asked, voice harsh, yet muggy, as her throat hadn't cleared up yet, and her mouth was pretty much still asleep. The two-shaded blue Pokemon had spent her entire night trying to wipe her mind with action movies, anime and gory video games, and had only gotten some sleep after passing out with her face planted in her Doritos. Which explained why crumbs were stuck to her fur...

"Tell me what I need to know, and I won't be forced to kill you."

Azelf gave the other Pokemon a blank look with glassy gold eyes, half amused and half annoyed, which was an emotion that she felt a lot, yet had never bothered to label. That was Mesprit's thing.

"..."

...the same Mesprit that was trying to act like a tough detective from "CSI" or "24" as opposed to the gentle Being of Emotion that she really was. As the blue Pokemon rubbed at her eyes, they finally switched into focus, and a pale blue and deep pink legendary with a body similar to the Will power legendary's own greeted her still blurry sight. The emotion legendary had an extremely serious look on her face, and her arms were folded across her furry chest.

"What the hell are you doing, Mesprit?" Azelf asked haughtily, golden eyes narrowing all the more as said counterpart pointed one small paw at the blue Pokemon, nearly poking her in the snout(A campaign poster with the pink and pale blue Pokemon suddenly flashed through Azelf's mind with "Mesprit wants YOU!" written in large, obnoxious text for some reason she couldn't imagine). She leaned back slightly, nearly toppling over as Mesprit's golden eyes narrowed as well.

"Spill it."

The hard, serious tone in the usually light hearted Pokemon's voice made the Being of Will visibly gape, as she wasn't used to her counterpart being so stern before she had done anything wrong. Azelf blinked her gold eyes a few times, stunned into silence- amazingly- before she finally snapped back into her usual personality.

"Spill what?"

Mesprit threw her small paws into the air and floated a little ways off, form displaying obvious exasperation- but for what escaped Azelf. She hadn't even done anything and she was already getting snapped at! What did she have to do to get a little respect around her home?

"THERE-" The Being of Emotion started, the loudness of her voice causing Azelf to jump in her seat. Mesprit whipped around, once again pointing to her bewildered counterpart(Objection!). "-Is something wrong with you." Azelf only blinked, completely and utterly lost. Arceus, it was too early in the morning for this- when in reality it was three in the afternoon...

"I don't get it." The blue Pokemon muttered, her golden eyes widening as she attempted to get more light into them. "I haven't argued with you guys, or blown anything up, or insulted you guys, or caused any trouble, so what's the problem?"Azelf ended her statement with a small sigh, as she didn't even see why she was here in the first place. She expected her pink counterpart to see the logic and let her go, but the effect was the exact opposite.

"Exactly!" Mesprit cried, paws going palm up as if questioning her own words. "Quite frankly, you haven't been acting like yourself at all!" The Being of Emotion clasped her paws together, worry tinting her large golden eyes. "You've been quiet! You haven't argued with Uxie or blown anything up for weeks! Every single time I see you you're wandering around like a dead zombie-" Azelf didn't bother to point out the redundancy of this simile. "- sighing like a teenager with a crush! It's like..." Small paws went to her hips. "It's like you're lovesick, or something!"

Mesprit expected her blue, boyish counterpart to retort with a snappy comment about the ridiculousness of the statement, but she was only met with silence. The Being of Emotion turned her head slowly to look at the other legendary, who's usually narrowed amber eyes were complete circles.

"You aren't, right?"

Azelf violently shook her head, snapping out of her stupor. "Of course not! Don't be stupid, Mesprit." The blue Pokemon muttered, lowering her head as she was too tired to keep it up. She held her head in her two small paws, as if she could some how forced the confusion out. "I just... I..." A deep sigh followed, one that heaved her entire small form. "I'm just... tired of being confused."

Okay, now Mesprit was confused. If she had thought that Azelf was acting weird before, it was nothing compared to this. The pink Pokemon floated over to her counterpart, golden eyes wide with worry as she attempted to figure out what to do to make things a little less difficult for her and her friend.

"Confused about... what?"

"I don't know! That's why I'm confused!" Azelf moaned, sinking lower into her chair as her paws continued to press against her dark blue head. "I just feel all achy... but I'm not sick!" Her paws went to her chest, and she scrunched her eyes close. "And my head feels all dizzy... and I only feel better when I play really violent video games..." As the Being of Willpower spoke, Mesprit's golden eyes were continuing to grow in size, to the point where they were the size of frisbees.

"When'd this start?" She asked quietly, trying not to sound too alarmed.

Azelf opened her amber eyes as she tried to recall when she had started to feel so messed up. It was... after she and her counterparts had been taken into that horrible lab, weeks after, when Uxie visited... When she had practically thrown herself into the Being of Knowledge's chest sobbing like a lost child who had finally found her parents. Shortly after she started feeling tired and achy and felt the need to avoid her helmet-headed counterpart as much as possible.

"I... um... don't remember." Azelf lied, turning her face away to look at the wall parallel to her. The blue Pokemon's twin tails twitched vacantly, and Mesprit reached one paw forward to tap herself on the forehead. The Being of Emotion couldn't help but wonder who the guy was, but she had a small idea...

"Why don't we go and visit Uxie?"

The two-shaded blue Pokemon jerked back, knocking the chair she had been sitting in backwards as she tried to get away from her counterpart like she had some highly contagious disease. "NO!" She yelped, paws going up to hide her face as if she was being flashed by a really bright light, though it was more because she didn't want to show how terrified she was. "I can't!"

"Why not?" Mesprit asked innocently, before grabbing both of Azelf's tails and giving them a yank. "Come on, when was the last time we all got together as a trio? It'll be fun! I'm sure Braniac won't mind, it's not like he does anything anyway." She fluttered her lashes like she wasn't actually screwing her counterpart over and instead just getting a reunion together. She clapped her small paws together and gave a huge grin, which showed her fangs. "Okay? I'm gonna go tell Uxie, you stay here and get ready or something, alright?"

"Wait, Mesprit!" Azelf reached her paw to try and stop the Being of Emotion, but was too slow as the pink Pokemon disappeared in a flash of magenta light, leaving a blue Pokemon to wonder about her embarrassing demise. The Being of Will moaned, sinking into a heap onto the floor as she cradled her head in her small paws, muttering random curses under her panting breath.

Oh Arceus.

Oh God.

Oh crap.

Uxie was coming, that much was certain. Mesprit was very good at getting her way, so there was no doubt in Azelf's mind that the pink Pokemon would easily force her yellow counterpart to come, whether he wanted to or not. Which meant that he would be pissed off when he got there, which meant that once again Will and Knowledge would clash and explode on contact. It always happened. Always. That hadn't changed, yet the relationship between blue and yellow had.

Before Azelf found it perfectly normal to stop by the brain savvy's humble abode, just for the sake of picking up a good argument, but after... after that night she couldn't even be around him before she started to feel achy like she had the flu. Which wasn't pleasant. Which was why she had taken to avoiding him at all costs.

God, she actually thought that Mesprit wouldn't notice! Or wouldn't care!

She was confused because she was tired. She was tired because she wasn't sleeping. She wasn't sleeping because of her dreams. Her dreams. She wanted to strangle Cresselia because of the taunting, confusing, bewildering wisps of events that played whenever she did finally submit to exhaustion. The one's that made her jerk up in the middle of the night, hugging herself and blushing like a school girl who's crush had brushed her hand in Chemistry. But she wasn't like that. She wasn't.

So why? Why did she have the uncontrollable urge to blush whenever he was around? It didn't make sense! She was the Being of Will, not some weak minded mortal with a puny lifespan! And why did half of her dread the visit of her intelligent counterpart while the other jumped for joy like it was the only thing that mattered in life?

Azelf lowered her head into her knees, amber eyes scrunched shut as she tried to control herself. She didn't know what to do, mainly because she didn't know what was wrong with her in the first place, so she was stuck in this corner that her tired mind couldn't move out of. While the idea of just leaving to crash at Celebi's place for a little while crossed her mind, but for some reason her body didn't move as she wanted it to. Or at least how she thought she wanted it to.

She didn't even know anymore.

Thinking wasn't her thing. It was his.

Oh god.

Him.

The yellow-headed, calm-minded, quick-witted, well controlled legendary of Knowledge. Her male counterpart, with the sarcastic, wisecrack personality that she used to argue so freely with but now couldn't even be around. Hell, eye contact probably would have killed her, if possible. He was a guy. Yet it had taken her thousands of years to realize that. All in that one night, that one awkward, chaotic night when she had finally shared her fears with someone. Of all people, him.

Why him?

Well, now Mesprit has gone to drag Uxie out of his cave. Next chapter will be a nice conversation between Uxie and Mesprit :D Or something of that nature! I'll be updating T:SS later this week! SU out! :D
