  1. [13:22:18] <~Aori_Radidjiu> May 5th, 4 AM. After getting washed away, all who were around at the Mermaid Grotto last night (except for some FISHY SCIENTISTS. Maybe.) were all washed away by a torrent of water, brought on by the Sea Goddess Naamaka. Due to a mixture of the impact, the lack of oxygen (unless you got your rebreather on really quick) and the water knocking you into some WEIRD PLACES, Melanie Ipu
  2. [13:22:18] <~Aori_Radidjiu> and Med Mizou have ended up in a strange bit of cave, stalactites and -mites all over the place, some deep cavern paths going away from this place, and a maw of cave opening out into the outside. There's occasional chittering from inside and outside the cave.
  3. [13:23:06] <~Aori_Radidjiu> The first of the two gals to wake up is Melanie. She's sprawled out on the cave floor, nothing particularly pointy under her, but it's not very comfortable.
  4. [13:25:01] * Melons sits up slowly, quickly freaking out and checking her pokeballs to make sure she has everyone but Reeve, and fuck if she has any clue where he is now.
  5. [13:26:15] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You do, in fact, have everyone but Reeve.
  6. [13:27:01] <Melons> The lovely gnawing pain of mild blunt force trauma to the head kicks in as she pulls herself onto her feet and looks about her surroundings.
  7. [13:29:24] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It's pretty dark, you're barely able to see ANYTHING in here.
  8. [13:29:52] * Melons fumbles for her goggles to solve that.
  9. [13:30:37] * Med (chaos@sux-83214E93.lightspeed.ltrkar.sbcglobal.net) has joined #youareapirate
  10. [13:31:50] * Roara (roara@16A2139C.E1EF92C4.DCDBF977.IP) Quit (Quit: )
  11. [13:34:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Goggles: on! Fumbling around with the knobs and slots and junk, you find that the goggles give night vision by default with nothing activated,a nd that thermal vision is activated by turning a knob on the side with the card inserted. There's also an option to power the goggles off and have them basically be sunglasses
  12. [13:34:38] * Med lies peacefully on the cavern floor while Mel fumbles about, still unconscious until Aori, master of GMing games with girls, formally declares otherwise. Maybe she is dreaming of zubats being adorable?!
  13. [13:36:14] * Melons grins at discovering...oh...there's a Med on the ground...right, shit went and is going down.
  14. [13:39:45] <Med> But wait. Who cares if zubats are adorable? If she were consciously aware, she'd realize that, maybe she did while she was under Blacktree's brainwashing, but now that she's her true self again, that's a boring dream. She attempts to become a lucid dreamer, and change it to something more interesting.
  15. [13:40:01] <Melons> But Zubats ARE adorable...
  16. [13:40:04] <Med> 3d6+6+2 FOCUS ON DREAM CONTROL, that's the skill I'd use right?
  17. [13:40:12] <Med> And an unimportant roll went unrolled.
  18. [13:40:16] <~Aori_Radidjiu> sec
  19. [13:40:33] * DiceMaid-9001 (DiceMaid-9@sux-EADD5C74) has joined #youareapirate
  20. [13:41:01] <Med> 3d6+6+2 zubats are adorable, but there are just so many more exciting things she could dream about!
  21. [13:41:02] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, zubats are adorable, but there are just so many more exciting things she could dream about!: 14 [3d6=3,1,2]
  22. [13:41:22] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Speaking of Zubats, looking around, Mel sees that there actually is a decently sized colony of them a bit off, to the left, perched among the stalactites. They don't seem to have noticed you yet.
  23. [13:43:36] <Melons> "Aaaaaaaaaaw~" Look at them with their little faces and not having eyes and their weird non-legs!
  24. [13:44:01] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Some of them twitch in their sleep in response to your voice
  25. [13:44:22] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Guess who else twitches in her sleep. And by "twitches", I mean "wakes up".
  26. [13:44:55] <Med> I guess an angry L100 dragonite!
  27. [13:45:07] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Nope. Med.
  28. [13:45:11] <Med> close enough.
  29. [13:45:56] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Med, you wake up in the darkness. Well. Mostly darkness. there's a certain glowy light coming from somebody's fancy goggles
  30. [13:46:05] <Med> Ow. That sure is rock she's lying on. She sits up and tries to figure out why she's lying on a cavern floor, and why it's so uncomfortable, and why the world hates her.
  31. [13:46:40] <Med> 3d6+6 but i can see auras in darkness, right?!
  32. [13:46:41] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, but i can see auras in darkness, right?!: 18 [3d6=4,2,6]
  33. [13:46:51] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Right?
  34. [13:47:21] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Right?
  35. [13:47:23] <~Aori_Radidjiu> ...nope
  36. [13:47:35] <Melons> Mel looks down and whispers. "Med, shut up and help me get a Zubat without pissing them all off."
  37. [13:48:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Your head hurts and is PRETTY SORE. YOu think you probably knocked your head on something
  38. [13:48:04] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Your brain hurts
  39. [13:48:34] * Med clutches said head. Maybe Mel's just... become a robot... in the last... however long she's been out. Maybe she was out for months and Mel is now a robot.
  40. [13:50:11] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You can't see any of your aura either. Not to say you could see much of it before since you were at a bad angle to look at it, but you could always tell it was there.
  41. [13:50:32] * Honoo is now known as Lecia
  42. [13:50:44] <Med> "It's gone..."
  43. [13:51:14] <Melons> "Ssssssssh!" Mel leans closer to Med and puts a finger to her lips. "I just said there were Zubats!"
  44. [13:51:38] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You can HEAR them shuddering in their sleep.
  45. [13:51:49] * Med would probably be overwhelmed with confusing emotions of relief and despair, but shadow as fuck.
  46. [13:51:49] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Almost collectively
  47. [13:54:09] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It's about this point where there's a soft sound of footsteps coming from another part of the cave, at what seems to be an exit to the outside (although it's hard to tell since DARK, at least in Med's case).
  48. [13:54:55] * Melons snaps her head towards the sound.
  49. [13:55:11] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Looking over there, it's....Blues! He's carrying some berries and leaves
  50. [13:55:22] * Med feels for her pokeballs, trying to find a Fluffers.
  51. [13:56:04] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You do, in fact, have all of your Pokeballs, and it's pretty easy to figure out which ball is which based on position, so finding Fluffers is a snap
  52. [13:56:08] * Doxy (popeperfid@sux-405AEA89.mci.googlefiber.net) has joined #youareapirate
  53. [13:56:18] <Med> (all? even knives and blues?)
  54. [13:56:39] <~Aori_Radidjiu> (Just because they're not IN the pokeball doesn't mean you don't have the pokeball)
  55. [13:56:58] * Med lets Fluffers out~
  56. [13:57:44] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Pop~! Fluffers is out!
  57. [13:59:40] * Melons eeps and looks at the Zubats. Good thing they're blind and obviously ca- oh dogs probably bark...
  58. [14:00:12] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Woof~
  59. [14:00:38] * Med pets fluffers, whispering, "I need you to light the place up, and, if the zubats come, scare them away, okay?~"
  60. [14:04:17] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Fluffers nods, and then Blues comes up and holds up one of the leaves to Fluffers, who tilts his head a bit before realizing and putting a small little fire on the tip of hte leaf! The leaf seesm to be burning out quick, though.
  61. [14:04:21] <~Aori_Radidjiu> In the light you can seeeeee
  62. [14:04:42] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Zubats. TONS of Zubats
  63. [14:04:50] <~Aori_Radidjiu> An exit to outside the cave
  64. [14:04:57] <~Aori_Radidjiu> And some paths into deeper in the cave.
  65. [14:05:11] * Med pats Blues on the head~
  66. [14:06:43] <Med> "Do you know where Knives is?" she asks Blues all hush. fuckin zubats.
  67. [14:08:13] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Blues shakes his head.
  68. [14:08:50] <Med> whisperwhisper~ "Fluffers, can you find Knives?"
  69. [14:09:01] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Sniffsniff
  70. [14:09:27] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d20
  71. [14:09:27] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, 1d20: 8 [1d20=8]
  72. [14:09:47] <~Aori_Radidjiu> sniffsniffsniff
  73. [14:09:55] <~Aori_Radidjiu> whiiiiiine.
  74. [14:10:12] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Seems he can't find knives. Might have to do with all the WATER washing things away.
  75. [14:10:31] * Melons tries to telekinetically abduct a Zubat by gently pulling it from its perch and quickly mimicing it via psychic bullshit. It's easily light enough to actually lift.
  76. [14:10:49] <Med> "We'll have to find him then. Come on~"
  77. [14:11:15] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Blues and Fluffers follow Med
  78. [14:12:17] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Mel tries pulling a Zubat with her mind. It has a tight grip on its perch, but your TELEKINETIC GRIP is better, so it pops off easily. None o fthe bats seem to notice. Yet.
  79. [14:13:29] <Med> "Are you coming, Mel, or staying here with the bats?"
  80. [14:14:16] <Melons> "Why would I...hmph..." Mel follows behind Med by a fair distance, the Zubat floating overhead.
  81. [14:14:50] * Med goes in a direction Blues didn't come from! Presumably that's deeper into the caves!
  82. [14:15:33] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Blues came from outside and is still holding some Oran and Sitrus berries he found c:
  83. [14:16:00] <Med> 1d6 survival: what kind of berries?
  84. [14:16:00] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, survival: what kind of berries?: 2 [1d6=2]
  85. [14:16:30] <Melons> 1d6+3 Round ones!
  86. [14:16:31] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Round ones!: 5 [1d6=2]
  87. [14:19:58] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Pretty round
  88. [14:20:05] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Blues offers you one~
  89. [14:20:52] <Melons> Which "you?"
  90. [14:21:01] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Med.
  91. [14:22:13] <Med> "Thanks~" she takes it, inspecting and sniffing it. She's probably kind of hungry though, since unless the center fed her she hasn't eaten ALL DAY, so it gets eaten either way!
  92. [14:23:03] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It's pretty good!
  93. [14:23:08] <Med> Blues gets more petting :3
  94. [14:25:32] <~Aori_Radidjiu> +15 HP~
  95. [14:26:14] <Med> did DIVINE SURF deal any damage to med?
  96. [14:26:31] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It actually didn't!
  97. [14:26:43] * Med goes from 58/84 to 58/84 then.
  98. [14:27:05] * Med lolinjuries
  99. [14:30:53] * Med caveexploration. Also, she checks to see if her phone still works, whether it can be used for light, and if she has a signal.
  100. [14:31:00] <Med> Also if she even still has her phone, I guess.
  101. [14:31:12] <Med> (if she doesn't, she still does the other things obviously)
  102. [14:32:40] * Melons does the same, though slightly embarrassed at not thinking of it earlier.
  103. [14:35:16] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Your phone does work!
  104. [14:35:23] <~Aori_Radidjiu> And you actually do have a signal now!
  105. [14:36:32] * Med waits until they're presumably out of zubat earshot (or at least zubats giving a fuck about you earshot) to give Lecia a call.
  106. [14:39:11] <Lecia> Ring! Ring! ...Huh, she's not there. Her answering machine is though, so you CAN leave your message after the *beep*
  107. [14:39:55] * Melons sends a text to the other crewmates that she's found Med and they're in a cave.
  108. [14:41:19] <Med> "Hi. You should fire everyone but Mel. They don't care about actually infiltrating us. See-ya."
  109. [14:41:23] * Med click~
  110. [14:41:34] * Melons stares at MEd.
  111. [14:42:32] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Textual conversations will be handled when we get to the other group on presumably Tuesday or Monday. Until theeeeen...going further into the cave...
  112. [14:42:34] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d100
  113. [14:42:35] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, 1d100: 73 [1d100=73]
  114. [14:53:16] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Now that we have music...you find a pack of Rhyhorn down the path you were going down
  115. [14:53:21] <~Aori_Radidjiu> They're all sleeping.
  116. [14:53:22] <Med> 6d6+6+2 passively charm the staring mel
  117. [14:53:23] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, passively charm the staring mel: 35 [6d6=2,5,2,6,6,6]
  118. [14:53:34] <Melons> Mel is already distracted by the adorable sleeping Rhyhorn.
  119. [14:54:46] <Melons> Oh, right.
  120. [14:55:02] <Melons> 1d20 Attempt to stuff sleeping Zubat into a Great Ball. AC6. Good thing it's sleeping.
  121. [14:55:04] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Attempt to stuff sleeping Zubat into a Great Ball. AC6. Good thing it's sleeping.: 10 [1d20=10]

  124. [14:55:26] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, 1d100-10: 81 [1d100=91]
  125. [14:55:35] <~Aori_Radidjiu> out it pops
  126. [14:55:46] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d20
  127. [14:55:47] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, 1d20: 6 [1d20=6]
  128. [14:55:51] <~Aori_Radidjiu> still asleep
  129. [14:56:39] <Melons> ...Better plan.
  130. [14:56:55] * Melons asks Blues for a Sitrus Berry.
  131. [14:57:04] * Melons smiles and everything!
  132. [14:57:24] * Med ate it o/~
  133. [14:57:31] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Blues has an Oran berry!
  134. [14:57:33] <~Aori_Radidjiu> He hands it over
  135. [14:57:57] * Med sneaks past the rhyhorn. Rhyhorn aren't Knives.
  136. [14:58:05] <Melons> What kind of forager only returns with two berries...Mel holds the Oran berry under the Zubat's nose.
  137. [14:58:16] <~Aori_Radidjiu> give me stealth check
  138. [14:58:20] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Med.

  141. [14:58:35] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Mel, the Zubat stirs and opens its eyes.
  142. [14:58:42] <Melons> Zubats don't have eyes!
  143. [14:58:49] <~Aori_Radidjiu> IT WOULD IF IT HAD THEM
  144. [14:59:04] <~Aori_Radidjiu> then it gobbles your Oran Berry
  145. [14:59:18] <~Aori_Radidjiu> And then remains still for a bit
  146. [14:59:20] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Before
  147. [14:59:23] <~Aori_Radidjiu> biting at your hand
  148. [14:59:25] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d20
  149. [14:59:26] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, 1d20: 10 [1d20=10]
  150. [14:59:37] <Melons> "There'll be more of that if you come with meeeee~! Don't do that..." Hit.
  151. [14:59:55] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d6+3+15 Leech Life
  152. [14:59:56] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, Leech Life: 22 [1d6=4]
  153. [15:02:33] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It bites into your hand and nomfs out some blood
  154. [15:02:40] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It seems to be smiling
  155. [15:02:50] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It licks your hand (not an attack, I know)
  156. [15:02:52] <~Aori_Radidjiu> MEANWHILE
  157. [15:03:11] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Med tries tiptoing past the Rhyhorns
  158. [15:03:13] <~Aori_Radidjiu> And kicks a rock
  159. [15:03:19] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Right into ones face
  160. [15:03:29] <~Aori_Radidjiu> oops
  161. [15:03:41] <Med> on an above average roll ;-;
  162. [15:03:52] <Melons> That's not how DCs work!
  163. [15:04:13] <~Aori_Radidjiu> The Rhyhorn opens its eyes
  164. [15:04:20] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Its bloodshot, angry eyes.
  165. [15:04:50] <Med> 6d6+6+2 but med's adorable, why would you be angry at her?~
  166. [15:04:50] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, but med's adorable, why would you be angry at her?~: 32 [6d6=5,6,1,6,5,1]
  167. [15:05:39] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It decides to not wake up the whole pack
  168. [15:05:47] <~Aori_Radidjiu> And instead walks up to you
  169. [15:06:09] <Med> "Sorry~ I'm just looking for my friend~ he was injured pretty badly~" charmcharm
  170. [15:06:18] <~Aori_Radidjiu> And pokes its horn into your leg, gently but firmly. Not in a way that's meant to hurt, but so that you can feel that it COULD hurt you.
  171. [15:06:22] * Melons puts another Great Ball up to the Zubat, trying to smilea way the mild anemia.
  172. [15:06:37] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Autohit
  173. [15:06:39] <~Aori_Radidjiu> roll your d100

  178. [15:07:05] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Yeah that goes through.
  179. [15:07:09] <~Aori_Radidjiu> WIGGLE
  180. [15:07:10] <~Aori_Radidjiu> WIGGLE
  181. [15:07:11] <~Aori_Radidjiu> CLICK
  182. [15:07:37] <Melons> Yay! Oh, that's a 7th pokemon. Does it vorp into the magic PC ghost?
  183. [15:07:47] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Sure does!
  184. [15:07:54] <~Aori_Radidjiu> VWOOP
  185. [15:08:09] * Melons catches up with Med and OH GOD SHE WOKE ONE UP!
  186. [15:08:44] * Med pets the rhyhorn gently and cautiously, to show that she means no harm to it or the pack o/~
  187. [15:09:36] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It stomps its leg down
  188. [15:09:43] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Roll me Pokemon Education, both of you
  189. [15:09:49] <Med> 2d6-1 wtf's that
  190. [15:09:50] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, wtf's that: 8 [2d6=4,5]
  191. [15:09:59] <Melons> 2d6+4 I've heard of a pokemon
  192. [15:09:59] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, I've heard of a pokemon: 8 [2d6=1,3]
  193. [15:10:01] <Med> 3d6+6 c-can i roll intuition too?
  194. [15:10:02] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, c-can i roll intuition too?: 19 [3d6=4,4,5]
  195. [15:10:29] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You're not sure why, but it seems to want you OUT. It's essentially doing its equivalent of asking you very nicely to leave.
  196. [15:10:52] <Med> "Bye~"
  197. [15:11:39] * Med wastes no time fulfilling its request.
  198. [15:11:57] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Going back the way you came, or continuing through the den
  199. [15:12:07] <Med> was there another way to go?
  200. [15:12:35] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It's technically possible to go deeper through the den! There also were a multitude of paths in the cave, you just ended up going down THIS one
  201. [15:12:52] <Med> Does it look like nothing but rhyhorns?
  202. [15:12:55] <Med> From what little she can see?
  203. [15:12:57] * Melons has Ado make a web bridge over the Rhyhorns to remove the possibility of a critfail! That'll probably fuck with some flying mons later, but hey, the Rhyhorn could only benefit from it!
  204. [15:13:12] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Looking further, you see...
  205. [15:13:17] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Both of you, perception
  206. [15:13:21] <Med> 1d6-1 wat
  207. [15:13:21] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, wat: 0 [1d6=1]
  208. [15:13:30] <Med> do medmons get perception too for this?!
  209. [15:13:33] <Melons> 2d6+7 Gogo gadget eggman goggles
  210. [15:13:34] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Gogo gadget eggman goggles: 18 [2d6=6,5]
  211. [15:14:09] <Med> 2d6+1 fluffers only has this level of perception; 4d6+1 but blues is pretttty sharp!
  212. [15:14:09] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, fluffers only has this level of perception: 7 [2d6=5,1]; but blues is pretttty sharp!: 18 [4d6=6,4,6,1]
  213. [15:14:32] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Mel! You see that past the Rhyhorn den, there's a little cave...that seems to be ANOTHER part of their den. Specifically, a little cave where all the little young Rhyhorn sleep. Blues notices it as well, and tugs Med's leg in the direction of BACK
  214. [15:14:58] * Melons whispers to Med. "This might be a nursery of sorts."
  215. [15:16:21] * Med decides to trust Blues and go back to try a different route~
  216. [15:18:42] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You head back! Your leafcandle is about to go back, but at least Mel can see in the dark!
  217. [15:18:46] <~Aori_Radidjiu> ...
  218. [15:18:48] <~Aori_Radidjiu> *go out
  219. [15:19:16] <Med> Fluffers can too :3
  220. [15:19:20] <Med> IN FACT
  221. [15:19:24] <Med> ALL OF MED'S MONS CAN OTHER THAN BLUES
  222. [15:19:41] <Med> and Chomps but she dont need to see
  223. [15:20:37] * Melons resists the urge to steal a Rhybabby and turns back with Med.
  224. [15:21:38] <Med> "Got any more torches, Blues-y?~"
  225. [15:22:17] <Melons> "If you just hold my hand, I can lead you and we'll be more discrete."
  226. [15:23:05] <Med> "Normally, I'd just borrow McMillions's eyes, but..."
  227. [15:24:05] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Blues shrugs. There's a few leaves, but they're all going to burn out quickly ANYWAY.
  228. [15:24:30] <Melons> Mel is distracted by having visions of her eyes spooned out.
  229. [15:24:31] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Mel can see that, in addition to the path they just tried, and the one they originally came from, there are two other paths from where they are.
  230. [15:26:18] <Med> "Alright... we'll save light for when we need it. Fluffers, you can help Blues, right?"
  231. [15:26:21] * Med takes Mel's hand~
  232. [15:26:52] * Melons consults her expert cave wisdom. "Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, catch a Raikou by the toe, if he hollers, let him go, eeny, meeny, miny, moe..." She tenses up like fuck at Med's hand but starts pulling her toward the leftmost unknown route with respect to who the fuck knows what.
  233. [15:29:41] <Med> "Are you scared of me? Or just of holding hands?~"
  234. [15:30:26] <Melons> "...I don't know how to deal with this at the moment. So I'm not going to."
  235. [15:31:59] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d100
  236. [15:32:00] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, 1d100: 27 [1d100=27]
  237. [15:32:22] <Med> "Aw~"
  238. [15:33:11] <~Aori_Radidjiu> The path here seems pretty clear! there's an occasional Paras walking around, and a few displaced Krabby who seem a bit confused, walking around in circles to get their bearings, but otherwise not much here. There's occasional rock formations, mostly stalactites and stalagmites, of course.
  239. [15:34:36] <Melons> "Watch your feet, there are some things that go snip in the night." Moving oooooon.
  240. [15:35:12] * Med hugs Mel's arm~ "I can't see them~ you'll have to guide me around them~"
  241. [15:35:17] * Botherrer (Botherer@sux-56822542.nycmny.fios.verizon.net) Quit (Quit: )
  242. [15:36:15] <Melons> "They're...they're just Krabby and Paras...I'm not going to drag you through them." No matter how much I want to.
  243. [15:36:38] * Med is still totes hugging Mel's arm. maybe she just wanted an excuse to?
  244. [15:37:22] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Moving on, let's see, shenanigans rollllll
  245. [15:37:25] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d100
  246. [15:37:26] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, 1d100: 88 [1d100=88]
  247. [15:37:38] <Med> it's probably a bit awkward since mel is like, SHORTER than med, though, so she eventually settles for linking arms.
  248. [15:37:38] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 4 different paths ahead!
  249. [15:39:12] <~Aori_Radidjiu> One to the left, two in the middle, one to the right~
  250. [15:40:17] <Melons> "...four more paths...you pick this time."
  251. [15:40:38] <Med> "That one," Med points. possibly at a wall.
  252. [15:41:10] <Melons> "That is a wall."
  253. [15:41:26] * Melons pokes it to make sure Med can't actually see something Mel can't.
  254. [15:41:55] <Med> "Fluffers, do you have any opinions?"
  255. [15:43:27] <Melons> "More specifically, does he smell any metal?"
  256. [15:44:02] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Sniffsniff
  257. [15:44:07] <~Aori_Radidjiu> SNIIIIFF
  258. [15:44:13] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Nod!
  259. [15:44:26] <Med> 1d6-1 magically see the nod in the dark
  260. [15:44:26] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, magically see the nod in the dark: 4 [1d6=5]
  261. [15:44:43] <Melons> "Tell him to point to the tunnel."
  262. [15:46:09] <Med> "If you got something, then lead the way, Fluffers~"
  263. [15:46:37] <Melons> "You could not be any worse at sneaking..."
  264. [15:47:22] <Med> 3d6+1 fluffers and;3d6+2 blues are actually pretty good at sneaking!
  265. [15:47:23] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, fluffers and: 15 [3d6=6,6,2]; blues are actually pretty good at sneaking!: 16 [3d6=4,6,4]
  266. [15:48:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Fluffers goes over to one of the path entrances, sniffing, and then nods wtih a WOOF
  267. [15:48:08] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d100 ADDITIONAL SHENANIGANS
  268. [15:48:08] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, ADDITIONAL SHENANIGANS: 79 [1d100=79]
  269. [15:48:30] * Melons yanks hard at Med's arm and pulls her towards the path.
  270. [15:48:53] * Med follows. "Not so rough~"
  271. [15:49:09] <Melons> "He said 'woof.'"
  272. [15:50:56] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Going down you fiiiiiind
  273. [15:53:49] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Knives! He's collapsed on the floor, all beat up, with a big, almost GIGANTIC Golbat eying it, its mouth visibly (or nto so visibly, since it's so DARK) salivating at the fallen little thing. It seems to be occupied by some little thing that's BLURRING ALL OVER THE PLACE and occasionally pushing it back
  274. [15:54:11] <Med> 1d6-1 i see this right?
  275. [15:54:12] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, i see this right?: 5 [1d6=6]
  276. [15:55:01] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You do! In fact, looking closer, it's TWO little bundles of energy trying to push this thing back.
  277. [15:55:43] <Melons> "He's being attacked." Out pops Ado.
  278. [15:57:19] <Melons> "Send in your pokemon, but don't get involved if you can't aim." Presumably fightan? Or is it fluff battle?
  279. [15:57:29] <~Aori_Radidjiu> The Golbat uses a HUGE wing attack, whacking both of the little blurs back and onto the ground. An absolutely exhausted Mienfoo and Mawile, both with scratches all over their bodies, panting.
  280. [15:58:09] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Fightan!
  281. [15:58:21] <Melons> Mel 21 Speed, Ado 11 (+10 first round)
  282. [15:58:22] * Med releases a McMillions, since Blues is as blind as her and Fluffers isn't a fighter.
  283. [15:58:51] * Med has 25 Speed, McMillions has 23 Speed!
  284. [16:00:13] * Aori_Radidjiu changes topic to 'Golbat > Med > McMillions > Mel = Ado'
  285. [16:06:03] <~Aori_Radidjiu> The Golbat gives out a high-pitched screeching laugh before attacking! It whacks a wing right at Ado
  286. [16:06:06] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d20 Wing Attack
  287. [16:06:07] <DiceMaid-9001> Aori_Radidjiu, Wing Attack: 17 [1d20=17]

  299. [16:10:36] <Med> "It's just one bat. Take it out and protect Knives!"
  300. [16:10:51] <Med> commander's voice
  301. [16:10:57] <Med> forceful command + morale booster, +2 attack for everyone
  302. [16:11:31] <Med> cheerleader, McMillions/Mel/Ado are Cheered and can use it for +2 to Save or 2 Temp HP. Cheered itself wears off at the end of my next turn.
  303. [16:11:46] * Med end of turn

  316. [16:15:16] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It shrugs the attack off like it was nothing.

  327. [16:23:00] <Melons> Sure, that.
  328. [16:23:52] * Med whistles a tune o/~ All injured allies restores 1/8th their max HP~

  330. [16:24:28] <~Aori_Radidjiu> McMillions!
  331. [16:25:33] <Med> "Take it down!"
  332. [16:25:56] <Med> McMillions flies back a bit, seeming to take it down with a DRILL PE- FAINT ATTACK INSTEAD

  343. [16:28:21] <Melons> "Med, you're not going to hurt Po, right?"
  344. [16:28:35] <Med> "Why would I?"
  345. [16:31:09] <Melons> Ado Spider Webs, which can't miss! The Golbat is Stuck and Trapped, just stay out of melee range! Mel Round Trip, First Blood swaps to Po! Po uses Curse as an Interrupt! Curse can't miss! Golbat is Cursed!
  346. [16:32:24] <~Aori_Radidjiu> KURST
  347. [16:32:52] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Golbat!
  348. [16:35:54] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It seems pretty MAD that you've made it unable to move! It lets out a SHRIEK that rips the air in front of it asunder!

  363. [16:38:34] <Med> but how can it be painful AND unconscious?!
  364. [16:38:41] <Melons> Bad dreams.
  365. [16:38:50] <Lecia> That's how much it hurt. So hurt both can happen.
  366. [16:40:13] * Med cheerleader as a swift action! McMillions/Mel/Po are CHEERED again~
  367. [16:41:03] * Melons doesn't LOOK particularly full of cheer.
  368. [16:41:04] <Med> "You tried to hurt what's mine, so I'm taking what's yours!" SOULSTEALER
  369. [16:42:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> -1 SDef stage!
  370. [16:43:00] <Med> that's it >_>

  385. [16:47:08] <~Aori_Radidjiu> and actually does he even go this turn
  386. [16:47:23] <Melons> Already acted last turn via interrupt, Speed is 20.
  387. [16:47:36] * Aori_Radidjiu changes topic to 'Golbat > Med > McMillions > Mel > Po'
  388. [16:47:38] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Golbat!
  389. [16:48:03] <~Aori_Radidjiu> 1d20 Air Cutter is At-will for some crazy reason

  396. [16:48:45] <~Aori_Radidjiu> I'm sorry ;_;
  397. [16:48:46] <Med> can it even reach McMillions?
  398. [16:48:53] <Med> she'd probably be pretty far back
  399. [16:48:54] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It's a 2 cone
  400. [16:48:57] <~Aori_Radidjiu> so maybe not
  401. [16:48:59] <Med> given 8m night shade range
  402. [16:49:03] <Med> and ridiculous flying speed
  403. [16:49:04] <~Aori_Radidjiu> okay
  404. [16:49:04] <~Aori_Radidjiu> so
  405. [16:49:04] <~Aori_Radidjiu> just
  406. [16:49:05] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Mel
  407. [16:49:06] <~Aori_Radidjiu> okay
  408. [16:49:07] <Med> :3
  409. [16:49:35] <Melons> Too bad being one unit of range from a ranged attacker doesn't count as a melee attack. ;-; Mel is hit.

  413. [16:49:55] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Med!
  414. [16:50:33] <~Aori_Radidjiu> The curse seems to be wearing at it, lacerations opening up all over its body
  415. [16:50:36] * Med moves up to the golbat to use SHADOW WAVE
  416. [16:50:49] <~Aori_Radidjiu> rolllll it~
  417. [16:50:53] <Med> 1d20 inb4 miss
  418. [16:50:54] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, inb4 miss: 1 [1d20=1]
  419. [16:50:57] <~Aori_Radidjiu> WELP
  420. [16:51:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> McMillions!
  421. [16:51:11] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Your wave goes right into the cave's wall
  422. [16:51:14] <Med> McMillions says fuck this rolling bullshit and FAINT ATTACKS
  423. [16:51:20] <Med> oh
  424. [16:51:29] <Med> 1d8+7+22 damage to the cave wall then
  425. [16:51:30] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, damage to the cave wall then: 36 [1d8=7]
  426. [16:51:36] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Poor wall ;_;
  427. [16:51:38] <Med> 1d20 FAINT ATTACK
  428. [16:51:39] <Melons> "What did I tell you about attacking!"
  429. [16:51:39] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, FAINT ATTACK: 18 [1d20=18]
  430. [16:51:51] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Hits of course!
  431. [16:51:54] <Med> crits
  432. [16:52:01] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Oh?
  433. [16:52:04] <Melons> Super Luck
  434. [16:52:08] <Med> 6d6+16+36+8
  435. [16:52:08] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, 6d6+16+36+8: 81 [6d6=6,3,3,1,4,4]
  436. [16:52:12] <Med> birds, man. birds.
  437. [16:52:15] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Oh my, Super Luck
  438. [16:53:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Murkrow is a fucking BEAST. McMillions decides she's had enough of this shit and swoops in at the Golbat, who ducks and starts laughing all high pitched
  439. [16:53:18] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Then McMillions comes in for a second pass and rips the thing in two because holy shit it only had 1 HP left
  440. [16:53:46] <Melons> Poor Po, doesn't even get to feed off of a corpse for health. ;-;
  441. [16:53:55] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It explodes intoa shower of blood that paints the cave walls red
  442. [16:54:20] <Med> "Don't fuck with my things next time~"
  443. [16:54:41] <Med> 6d6+6+2 give the cutest post mortem oneliner ever
  444. [16:54:42] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, give the cutest post mortem oneliner ever: 29 [6d6=6,3,1,2,5,4]
  445. [16:54:55] * Melons was...at...pointblank. And had an open wound from the Zubat. She should probably get checked for all of the diseases when they return. "Don't call them things..." Mel checks on the Mienfoo and Mawile.
  446. [16:56:33] <~Aori_Radidjiu> They're both stumbling up, cuts and scratchs all over their bodies.
  447. [16:57:15] * Med TIME TO BANDAGE UP SOME POKEMON
  448. [16:57:23] <Melons> "I don't have anything to heal you two on me...but if you come back with us, we can get you checked into a pokecenter. We owe it to you for saving our friend."
  449. [16:57:29] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Knives is hurt the fuck up, but seems to be alive.
  450. [16:57:42] * Med sees three wounded pokemon other than McMillions, and bandages them all up~
  451. [16:58:38] * Med is out of bandages after that, but she gives McMillions a potion and a promise to take her to the center ASAP.
  452. [16:58:41] <~Aori_Radidjiu> The Mienfoo and Mawile look at each other, nervous, but seeing that Knives is safe, and the SCOURGE OF THE CAVES is gone, they both nod in the affirmative.
  453. [16:58:59] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Po is slurping up the Golbat's guts.
  454. [16:59:42] <Med> 6d6+6+2 charm the fuck out of Mienfoo
  455. [16:59:43] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, charm the fuck out of Mienfoo: 30 [6d6=5,3,4,3,5,2]
  456. [16:59:45] <Med> 6d6+6+2 charm the fuck out of Mawile
  457. [16:59:46] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, charm the fuck out of Mawile: 33 [6d6=6,3,5,4,6,1]
  458. [17:00:06] <Melons> "Actually...if you were our pokemon...we could probably get you healed immediately." Presumably that is how the whole having your PC mons healed thing works.
  459. [17:00:19] <~Aori_Radidjiu> They seem a bit weirded out by Po's REVELRY, but don't seem at all adverse to coming with you two.
  460. [17:00:48] <~Aori_Radidjiu> The turn around and seem to talk it out a bit, and hten both turn around and give the two of you a nod.
  461. [17:01:16] * Melons holds up a Great Ball to the Mienfoo. "Med, do you need any pokeballs?"
  462. [17:02:05] <Med> "I have two." Speaking of pokeballs, she returns the now-bandaged Knives.
  463. [17:02:12] <Med> (Also, Mienfoo and Mawile have been bandaged)
  464. [17:03:15] * Retrieving #youareapirate modes...
  465. [17:04:12] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Cool! They both are auto-caught
  466. [17:04:37] * Med apparently gets a Mawile!
  467. [17:05:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> And now we cut session for now, I'd say. I'll give stats later, if you want, or you two could talk together if you want, but for now it's </session>
  468. [17:05:14] <Med> b-but
  469. [17:05:19] <Med> aren't we still fundamentally split from the other group?
  470. [17:05:26] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Yes, and? :3
  471. [17:05:28] <Melons> Stats would be cool.
  472. [17:05:43] <Med> (i thought you wanted to do a full group session on wednesday!)
  473. [17:05:49] <Melons> Since you included "if you want" twice for some reason.
  474. [17:06:01] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Yeah I dunno' why
  475. [17:06:05] <~Aori_Radidjiu> I said that twice
  476. [17:06:06] <Med> I DON'T WANT STATS BUT IT'S NOW MY MAIN FIGHTINGMON
  477. [17:06:13] <Med> IT WILL JUST FIGHT WITHOUT STATS
  478. [17:06:17] <Melons> it's steel/fairy, not fighting :D
  479. [17:06:29] <Melons> Also they COULD be catching up to us at the end of their session or at the start of the main
  480. [17:06:43] <~Aori_Radidjiu> As for full group session, it'll be...well, first off, we still need to see the results of you texting the other group
  481. [17:06:55] <Med> i guess they could potentially go deep into a dark cave to find us
  482. [17:06:57] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Also there was a cave opening to the outside.
  483. [17:07:04] <Med> (i just figured they'd get the hell out of there first :v )
  484. [17:07:06] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Right near where you started.
  485. [17:07:18] <Melons> Heh...Mel wouldn't have Cerise's number...Mako is apparently gone...Mack's phone is still toast I believe...so pretty much only Les would have got the text
  486. [17:07:38] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Le. got the text~
  487. [17:07:40] <Med> inb4 les doesn't notice, and texting has no effect
  488. [17:08:01] <Med> (also i'm up for some meldtalk)
  489. [17:08:06] <Melons> (Works for me)
  490. [17:08:08] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Go ahead and do that
  491. [17:08:09] * Med is up for it too, now that Knives has been rescued!
  492. [17:08:25] <Med> (i kind of wanted to do that this whole time, but PRIORITIES)
  493. [17:08:52] <~Aori_Radidjiu> If you go to the cave entrance to outside, you find that you're at some kind of beach, that seems cut off from most of the island, although it's not hard to imagine swimming to the main part of the island
  494. [17:09:28] * Botherrer (Botherer@sux-56822542.nycmny.fios.verizon.net) has joined #youareapirate
  495. [17:09:34] <Med> "I don't get what you said earlier."
  496. [17:10:15] <Melons> Mel drops to the ground, her chest heaving up and down as she pants. A number of terrible-looking bruises and some lacerations are hard to see amidst the Golbat blood. "That's not just you, most people don't."
  497. [17:11:06] <Med> "Are you actually going to come with me?"
  498. [17:11:19] <Melons> "Where are you going?"
  499. [17:11:55] * Med is still wounded from getting her ass handed to her by the person she is now conversing with, and presumably most of her bandages have been lost to the sea by now. then it turns out her bikini has been lost too, AND THIS ENTIRE SESSION WAS SECRETLY MORE LEWD THAN PREVIOUSLY REALIZED
  500. [17:12:31] <Med> "Where else? You guys are my natural enemies, so I'm gonna help my mom out."
  501. [17:13:00] <Melons> "What's...what's natural about it?"
  502. [17:13:03] * Med is, however, shadow as fuck, and cares not for such trifles.
  503. [17:13:34] <Med> is Po still out?
  504. [17:13:41] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Yes
  505. [17:13:54] <Med> "Po~ Who do you like more?~ Mel or me?~"
  506. [17:14:04] <Med> 6d6+6+2 charm the shadowmon. also shadow succubus to SPEAK ITS LANGUAGE
  507. [17:14:05] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, charm the shadowmon. also shadow succubus to SPEAK ITS LANGUAGE: 35 [6d6=5,2,6,5,3,6]
  508. [17:16:10] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It licks up more GOLBLOOD, making a bunch of disgusting noises (regain full HP and 1 Injury by the way) before pausing to think
  509. [17:16:19] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It gives a dopey look at Mel
  510. [17:16:20] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Then Med
  511. [17:16:30] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Then back and forth
  512. [17:16:35] <Med> :3
  513. [17:16:41] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Before finally looking at Med.
  514. [17:17:05] <Melons> "Po, no attacking, you already got her back."
  515. [17:18:04] * Med caresses the ghostmon~ she probably even knows how to pet a haunter. She likely grew up with them, after all!
  516. [17:18:10] <Med> "I think you misunderstood a little~"
  517. [17:18:50] <Melons> Mel wipes away some tears, smearing blood across her face in the process. "He...he just finds you interesting because you're weird...that's all..."
  518. [17:20:13] * Melons also recalls the ghost.
  519. [17:20:38] <Med> "Don't be upset~ I'm just showing you what I mean~"
  520. [17:21:08] * Vandaeron (Vandaeron@sux-BAECDBA.altnpa.east.verizon.net) has joined #youareapirate
  521. [17:21:18] <Melons> "How does my pokemon liking you make me your natural enemy?" She spits out the words, quite obviously a little angry.
  522. [17:21:52] <Med> "Because. He's been turned into a tool that fits people like me better than anyone else."
  523. [17:22:01] <Med> "And it's your job to turn him back."
  524. [17:22:28] <Melons> "No, it's my job to care for him unconditionally."
  525. [17:22:42] <Med> "Literally your job."
  526. [17:23:46] <Med> "That's one of the reasons PIRATES was formed, right?"
  527. [17:24:26] <Melons> "No, we fight pirates, the shadows are simply an unknown and dangerous factor, thus we only need to make sure they don't hurt people, we don't need to purify them. If he ever wants to be cured, he'd tell me and I'd help him with it, but I'm not forcing it on him."
  528. [17:24:54] <Med> "I bet Lecia'd be disappointed to hear that~"
  529. [17:25:05] <Lecia> What did Mel text her, anyway?
  530. [17:25:11] <Melons> Mel didn't text her.
  531. [17:25:18] <Med> Mel texted Les not Lec.
  532. [17:25:23] <Med> Med called Lec and left a message though!
  533. [17:25:41] <Lecia> ...I thought...OK, never mind! All this time I was sitting and thinking...well, continue! Don't mind me!
  534. [17:25:50] <Melons> "She'd just be disappointed that she doesn't get to play with weird things, not in the morality behind the choice."
  535. [17:26:25] <Melons> "And if she WAS, I wouldn't give any fucks."
  536. [17:26:49] <Med> "Well, that's good! Maybe you actually can be my ally, then!"
  537. [17:27:14] <Melons> "Wouldn't I just be another 'thing' to you, like your Pokemon?"
  538. [17:27:24] <Med> "Huh?"
  539. [17:27:47] <Med> "Yeah, so? I take good care of my things, and show them lot's of love~"
  540. [17:27:55] <Melons> "They aren't yours..."
  541. [17:27:59] <Med> "They're all I have."
  542. [17:28:40] <Lecia> Well, with that out of the way, Lecia makes an unfortunately timed call back to Med! Ring, or whatever it is your phone does!
  543. [17:28:43] <Melons> "Aren't you forgetting of your bigass family, shadowy fucktards or otherwise?"
  544. [17:30:23] <Med> "Some trainers keep their pokemon locked up, sometimes kept in those PC things for ages, and- oh~" phonecall!
  545. [17:30:30] * Med answers her phone~
  546. [17:30:41] <Med> "Hi~ Med Mizou speaking~"
  547. [17:32:27] <Lecia> "Hi! The message you left sounded like one of those 'something happened' messages, so I guess this is the part where I ask what happened, exactly. ...What happened, exactly?"
  548. [17:33:12] <Med> "Hmm... it's more interesting if I put you on speaker phone~"
  549. [17:33:30] * Med does exactly that SO MEL CAN PARTICIPATE, WHAT A THOUGHTFUL GESTURE SHE'S SHOWING TO HER LATEST AND NEWEST POTENTIAL THING
  550. [17:33:42] <Melons> "You're not going to make me want to hit you, right? I don't have the energy or health to do that right now..."
  551. [17:33:45] <Med> 6d6+6+2 raise mel's loyalty counter with this action using CHARM
  552. [17:33:46] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, raise mel's loyalty counter with this action using CHARM: 29 [6d6=4,6,4,1,4,2]
  553. [17:33:52] <Lecia> "Alright, I don't mind."
  554. [17:33:54] <Med> ((that's a joke))
  555. [17:34:06] <Melons> Mel's loyalty raised/dropped by ???.
  556. [17:34:22] <Med> I FULLY EXPECT TO SEE A CHANGE ON HER RELATIONSHIP CHART
  557. [17:34:50] <Med> "It's Lecia," she mentions to Mel before activating speaker phone, away from the voice thingy, just so Mel has CONTEXT
  558. [17:35:09] <Med> and then once speaker phone is turned on, she says "There~ Mel's here with me!"
  559. [17:35:14] <Melons> Mel casually flips Med the bird.
  560. [17:35:19] <Lecia> "Hi, Mel!" Oh me, oh my. "...Oh...right, I was supposed to...wow, I had been putting off giving Mel a talking to for way too long now. ...Is that still a thing? Do I still need to give her a talking to?"
  561. [17:35:38] <Melons> "Give me your most vindictive talking to you can muster."
  562. [17:35:41] <Med> "I dunno. She just gave me a rude gesture."
  563. [17:36:39] <Med> "I think she's upset that Po likes me more, but I keep telling her that's just natural given what happened to him."
  564. [17:37:11] <Lecia> "Well, since I'd like to get to the 'something happened' part, I'll get this in the most compact way I know how. Violence is bad, mmk? Even if they throw the first punch. Unless they're 100% absolutely the enemy, then do whatever."
  565. [17:37:36] <Melons> "Yes, only that, not the preceding betrayal when Med tried to join her mother and sister in killing the rest of us, Med is innocent and such."
  566. [17:38:49] <Lecia> "...And I take it that's the something I was figuring happened. See, I'm good at this!"
  567. [17:39:08] <Melons> "Even Med would have caught onto that."
  568. [17:39:31] <Med> "I tried to help them, but they just ignored me. No, we don't want to join murderers, they said. Wasn't that part of the job, though?"
  569. [17:40:32] <Melons> "Speaking of, Lecia, who the FUCK are these scientisty fucktards corrupting mermaids?"
  570. [17:41:22] <Lecia> "It...kinda is, yeah, though you should always remember that you're not actually joining them, rather working undercover by pretending to join them. Still, it's hard to understand the situation when I don't know much about it. Aside from the whole mother and sister thing, which I'm pretty sure just raises more questions anyway."
  571. [17:42:23] <Lecia> "And...well, if I were to throw a guess out, probably one of Team Aether's many, many branches."
  572. [17:42:29] <Med> "Didn't I tell you? You don't have to worry about curing me because~ this is who I actually am~" :3
  573. [17:42:39] <Melons> "...Team who?"
  574. [17:43:22] <Lecia> "...Weren't you here for that? I hope you were here for that, cause otherwise I'm gonna end up like one of those absent minded professors..."
  575. [17:43:54] <Lecia> "...you know what, I might as well just give a rundown of shadow Pokemon, since apparently I have to!"
  576. [17:44:37] <Med> "Oh! Include information about me too! She seems to be confused about what I am too, and since she's the only one who has a shot of infiltrating the enemy now... it could be important!~"
  577. [17:45:07] <Melons> "...you're saying our crew is the enemy right now, aren't you."
  578. [17:45:22] <Med> "No, I mean your enemy, not mine." :3
  579. [17:45:33] <Melons> "And no, I have never even fucking HEARD of Team Aether." Log diving confirms it.
  580. [17:46:18] <Lecia> "Dammit, I really didn't? How did I forget to talk about Team Aether to a person that actually owns a Shadow Pokemon! Geez, keeping track of everyone is a nightmare..."
  581. [17:46:23] <Lecia> "Aaaanyway, from the top!"
  582. [17:47:22] <Melons> "Med, your sister and mother are right on top of my To Smack a Fucktard list if they're with those Aether fucktards."
  583. [17:48:18] <Lecia> "Team Aether is a group of BAD people. Villains, criminals, maybe there might be good people in there but they're even fewer in number no matter how cynic your world view is due to the whole fact that one of the biggest things they do is turn normal Pokemon into Shadow Pokemon, which sort of rends their minds to make them more violent."
  584. [17:49:11] <Med> "I wonder why it makes them more violent. I know my mom is pretty violent, but that's just what she likes to do - like how I like doing things like this~"
  585. [17:49:15] * Med hugs mel~
  586. [17:49:34] * Melons hugs her teeth together in a grinding motion.
  587. [17:50:11] <Lecia> "It makes them more violent because that's what they were made to do! It's part of the process, since they're made, not birthed. As far as I'm aware."
  588. [17:50:40] <Melons> "You mean they're birthed and then transformed into shadow pokemon or do you mean they're literally constructed as shadow pokemon?"
  589. [17:50:48] <Lecia> "Former."
  590. [17:50:53] <Med> "Huh... so it's like... because they don't match up?"
  591. [17:51:19] <Med> "I guess the process isn't perfected, and I guess Team Aether just doesn't care - or maybe they like it better this way."
  592. [17:51:50] <Lecia> "I wouldn't know, I don't work for them!"
  593. [17:52:03] <Melons> "You can't prove you don't."
  594. [17:52:26] <Lecia> "I could, but it would take far too much of both of our times to bother."
  595. [17:53:21] <Lecia> "That said, they're easily distinguished by their strong, dark auras. And Mel, if you look back and forth between Med and your own Shadow Pokemon, you'll note that what you see is quite similar, right?"
  596. [17:53:58] <Melons> "I see an irritating little girl when I look at her, and a trickster ghost when I look at Po."
  597. [17:54:10] <Med> "My aura's better though~ and then my mom and my sister make even me look small~"
  598. [17:54:16] <Melons> "...maybe not literally 'little'..."
  599. [17:54:16] <Lecia> "With the aura alasses, I mean."
  600. [17:54:27] * Med TALLER THAN MEL
  601. [17:54:46] <Melons> "Yeah, sure, 'evil' shit and all with the auras, whatever."
  602. [17:56:42] <Lecia> "Yeah, those are signs of the same thing, and they're both messed up in SOME way, but not even in the exact same way and it's really confusing, and at the moment I didn't really have anything at all. What I can say is that when it comes to Pokemon, that's not natural, not even who they are, and it would be in their actual best interests to purify them. With or without my gadgets, though
  603. [17:56:42] <Lecia> they do make things easier."
  604. [17:57:24] <Melons> "...Haunters are notorious for being mean and playing tricks. Couldn't we effectively undo the brainwashing but leave the power?"
  605. [17:58:44] <Melons> "Otherwise, you're basically saying that anything that thinks differently than normal should be lobotomized."
  606. [17:58:45] <Lecia> "Some of the power is a trademark of being a Shadow Pokemon. Those moves are a pretty big reason why they make them, too! That said, Shadow Pokemon tend to end up with a neat move once purified, so I suppose there's that."
  607. [17:59:25] <Lecia> "No, I'm saying that the lobotomization performed on that Haunter should be reversed."
  608. [18:00:15] <Melons> "Who's to say the Haunter wouldn't prefer it this way after being purified? I mean, like a Gallade or some shit probably would want it, but Haunters love to make things suffer!"
  609. [18:01:04] <Med> "I dunno what you're talking about, haunters are just cute pranksters~"
  610. [18:01:07] <Lecia> "I would like to think that it would make an exception for itself. ...And brutal death isn't the same as suffer, you know."
  611. [18:01:36] <Melons> "Stealing life force isn't much of a prank."
  612. [18:02:10] <Med> "That's just how they eat~"
  613. [18:02:20] <Lecia> "I mean, it's not GOOD being a shadow Pokemon. The only thing they can really delight in is violence, and though Haunters honestly come pretty close to that in the first place, it's not the same at all!"
  614. [18:02:22] <Melons> "They don't even need to eat. They're ghosts."
  615. [18:02:36] <Melons> "I'm not purifying Po unless he allows it."
  616. [18:02:45] <Med> "Huh... I bet my father or brother could dispute that."
  617. [18:03:34] <Lecia> "I'd be surprised if he thought it one way or another. They don't really think about stuff like that until they're almost purified in the first place."
  618. [18:03:50] <Melons> "That's why I would ask him, duh."
  619. [18:04:17] <Med> "He's doing better though!~"
  620. [18:04:22] <Med> "It actually took him a moment to pick me over Mel!~"
  621. [18:04:29] <Lecia> "So as long as you treat him well, it'll likely be the answer in the end!"
  622. [18:04:59] <Lecia> "Cause being a shadow isn't the best feeling in the world, unless you're full shadow in which case you only have one feeling."
  623. [18:05:08] <Melons> Mel makes incomprehensible sounds and starts tearing again.
  624. [18:05:26] <Melons> +up
  625. [18:05:42] <Med> "Aww~"
  626. [18:05:46] * Med hugs and comforts Mel~
  627. [18:05:51] <Melons> "Shut up...don't touch me..."
  628. [18:05:58] <Lecia> "Sooo, yeah, if you end up with a bunch of shadow Pokemon, please use the machine! It totally works!"
  629. [18:06:10] * Melons telekinetically ends the call.
  630. [18:06:26] <Med> 1d6-1 notice that the call ended
  631. [18:06:27] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, notice that the call ended: 0 [1d6=1]
  632. [18:06:33] <Lecia> She calls back. ...She wasn't done?
  633. [18:06:40] <Med> "Huh?"
  634. [18:06:53] * Med answers, and puts Lecia back on speakerphone.
  635. [18:06:58] <Lecia> "H-hey, wasn't done, one more thing!"
  636. [18:08:17] <Lecia> "That'd be on Med. You mentioned that your mother was violent, yes? And your sister, yes, but more importantly, your mother?"
  637. [18:08:47] <Med> "Mhm~"
  638. [18:09:27] <Med> "Knives said she was always getting into fights when she was young ... and I think she usually fights to the death~"
  639. [18:09:55] * Melons snort-chuckles. "Guess she failed this time!"
  640. [18:10:12] <Med> "Well, she was fighting two goddesses~"
  641. [18:10:17] <Med> "And you guys still had to run away~"
  642. [18:10:28] <Melons> "I didn't run, technically!"
  643. [18:10:52] <Med> "Well, yeah! You were the only one who wanted to do your job!" :3
  644. [18:11:16] <Lecia> "And your shadowy aura pales in comparison to them, and you DID mention a father, but he certainly wasn't there, so...you're...I think you might be half-Shadow, as it were. And she's more...full Shadow. I have no idea where your sister factors into this, but there it is!"
  645. [18:11:33] <Melons> "...you can pass on shadow at birth?"
  646. [18:11:42] <Melons> "That sounds dumb."
  647. [18:12:25] <Melons> "Is it like those dumb midichlorians in that one series? Can someone else catch the shadow through a blood transfusion?"
  648. [18:12:30] <Med> "I told you I'm naturally this way." :3
  649. [18:12:58] <Melons> "OH, speaking of that, Lecia, how bad is it to get wild Golbat blood mixed with your own open cuts?"
  650. [18:13:06] <Med> "Uh... I think my sister just forces bits of her aura into things to convert them, but maybe blood works too?"
  651. [18:13:52] <Lecia> "She did! And though that could have been part of the mind rending that being a shadow is, it does look pretty plausible--oh lord, is that how they're doing it? Now that just opens another can of worms for me."
  652. [18:14:50] <Med> "Mhm~ If you try to hurt my sister..."
  653. [18:16:19] <Lecia> "Well, she's apparently part of Team Aether. Kind of directly opposing what we do in the front. So if she starts a fight, which I imagine she'd be prone to doing, fighting back kind of has to be done. Have to get that out there, not gonna lie to cover myself, cause then I might as well be afraid of you!"
  654. [18:18:01] <Melons> "If I see your sister again, I'm getting my OWN Tauros, giving it a whip, and having it attack."
  655. [18:18:45] <Lecia> "...Oooh, Anger Point. Have to watch out for that. Better yet, get a Pokemon with Topsy-Turvy, have a blast!"
  656. [18:19:14] <Melons> "...no, see, she used some kind of fucked up aqua-Tauros, so it has to be a Tauros."
  657. [18:19:24] <Melons> "...also, tell me if I'm going to get rabies or something already."
  658. [18:20:12] <Lecia> "Or Psych Up. Terrifying. Maybe Foul Play...er, what was I saying--right! You won't get rabies, but you might feel ill for a few minutes at some point, due to the poisonous nature of Golbats. That'll pass."
  659. [18:21:20] <Melons> "...oh, good." Mel realizes she could totally try to build up an immunity to certain poisons, now owning three poison mons. Even if one of them never naturally learns poison attacks.
  660. [18:21:35] <Melons> "If you're rambling, you're done now, right?" Call ends again!
  661. [18:22:58] <Lecia> She doesn't pick up, but Med does get a text. 'Last thing: if you can't find them, I will say you've been working hard enough for a vacation, so you're more than welcome to take one of those!'
  662. [18:23:41] <Melons> "Med."
  663. [18:24:07] * Med reads text. "Oh, apparently we can take a vacation."
  664. [18:24:26] * Med laughs a bit~
  665. [18:24:38] <Med> "I don't think she realized what I've done at all!"
  666. [18:25:23] <Melons> What? Gods are getting fucked, mermaids are being slaughtered and corrupted, and we can...VACATION?...WHAT?!...Mel seethes but calms back down after a couple breaths. "...Med."
  667. [18:25:32] <Med> "Yeah?~"
  668. [18:25:54] <Melons> "...if Po really prefers to be with you...I can ask if he wants to go with you..."
  669. [18:26:18] <Med> "He'll say yes. And then, no matter how kindly I treat him, he'll stay a shadow forever."
  670. [18:26:46] <Med> "After all, that's the only reason he's loyal to me to begin with."
  671. [18:27:35] <Melons> "If...that's what he wants...I can't deny him it. I mean, regardless of how Lecia put it, especially for him in particular, it's not really like a kid wanting candy instead of vegetables..."
  672. [18:28:04] <Med> "I'll try to work out the anger issue though... I can't have that~"
  673. [18:28:13] <Melons> "Two conditions though."
  674. [18:29:45] <Melons> "One: you have to trade a ghost for a ghost. Two: you stay with us. I don't care that your mother and sister are shadows. What I hold against them is how they treat pokemon...and mermaids I guess...and allying with fucktards."
  675. [18:32:01] <Med> "I don't have a ghost, and if you mean the ship, you guys are a liability."
  676. [18:32:48] <Melons> "Then you'll have to catch one. And of course I mean the ship, but we're no bigger a liability than those Aether fucktards, did you miss how easily we infiltrated them without any clue they were there?"
  677. [18:35:09] <Med> "Huh? That's good for me, though, not bad for me!"
  678. [18:35:47] <Med> "How about... instead of giving Po to me... you use him as a means of infiltrating them for real with me, and ditch the incompetents~"
  679. [18:36:10] <Melons> "I already promised to protect Mirai, I'm not abandoning them."
  680. [18:36:49] <Med> "Huh... so you're going to fight thugs, and bring Mirai along?"
  681. [18:36:58] <Med> "Don't you know people like that usually go after loved ones?"
  682. [18:37:16] <Med> "I mean... if you actually hurt my sister... that's probably what I'd do~"
  683. [18:37:40] <Med> "I know she can take a few bruises, but...~"
  684. [18:37:57] <Melons> "How would they know she was a loved one?" Mel eyes Med, suspicious as fuck. "Besides, they're helpless without me."
  685. [18:38:19] <Melons> "Okay, well slightly less helpless with Lesieli apparently being a god and I have no idea about that new chick, but still."
  686. [18:39:35] <Med> "I dunno, but if you always bring her along, they'll eventually find out, won't they?"
  687. [18:39:54] <Melons> "She comes along for gym battles, she generally stays on the ship while we fight actually dangerous things."
  688. [18:40:20] <Melons> "And if the ship is under attack, I have to be there."
  689. [18:42:16] <Med> "Huh... well, it's up to you, but I guess it sounds like our plans just don't match up!"
  690. [18:42:23] <Melons> "What IS your plan?"
  691. [18:45:15] <Med> "I dunno... I just want to be with the only two people who can actually understand me... who're actually like me... maybe I'll save them when the world itself tries to stop them... I haven't really thought it out."
  692. [18:49:40] <Melons> "I suppose I can sympathize...I'd be lucky to have two such people!...they just don't seem like the most caring of family members to be around, especially if they're actively siding with assholes...what if I change my second condition to you joining us as we go to Sepia? Then you can talk to your other family a bit, maybe learn new shit, I learn some shit about my family without having to introduce myself while simultaneously telling them you went to join up with the assholes, then you can probably get a ghost somewhere there, then you decide whether you want to stay or go then?"
  693. [18:51:50] <Med> "I probably should go to Sepia and see father again, if I can't find mommy... and Knives is the only one who could track her down, and he's not going to help me."
  694. [18:53:10] <Melons> "I mean, if you tell him you want to find her to go make terrible decisions like being a fucktard, probably not. But if you just wanted to FIND her, hopefully with the intent of preventing her from making further fucktarded decisions, I think he's just looking after you." I need to stop saying 'fucktard.'
  695. [18:55:22] <Med> "He is."
  696. [18:55:27] <Med> "He's my guardian, after all."
  697. [18:57:02] <Melons> "You know...he...uh..." Mel looks around, on the off-chance someone is chilling out in the dark cave for some reason. "...he can speak, right?"
  698. [18:57:18] <Med> "Huh?"
  699. [18:58:13] <Melons> "Like...English."
  700. [19:00:04] <Med> "Huh... he never has before, but... until today, he's never had to... but I guess it might make sense..."
  701. [19:00:36] <Med> "I mean... he's my mom's pokemon... he's definitely older than me, and he might even be as old as Mack."
  702. [19:01:15] <Melons> "It was actually...after our fight...and I might have imagined it from the stress...but...if he isn't allied with your mother...you should probably at least ask your father about him before choosing where to go...also...I guess...you're done with Mack?"
  703. [19:01:51] <Med> "Nah~ I like being in a relationship~ it makes it more exciting~"
  704. [19:02:26] <Melons> "You know he'd have to agree to it, right? I mean...you kissed a goddess in front of him...and then proceeded to give fuckall about him before the flood..."
  705. [19:03:19] <Med> "Huh... well, he hasn't broken up with me yet~ and what do you think I meant by exciting?"
  706. [19:03:32] <Melons> "...that isn't cool..."
  707. [19:04:25] <Med> "Huh?"
  708. [19:04:57] <Melons> "You can't just be in a relationship...to be in a relationship...you're probably hurting him..."
  709. [19:05:16] <Med> "See! That's why I can't be with you people!"
  710. [19:05:22] <Med> "You have all these... feelings."
  711. [19:05:42] <Melons> "N-No I don't! Shut up!...what's wrong with feelings?"
  712. [19:07:11] <Med> "They hurt and stuff."
  713. [19:07:25] <Melons> "...so?"
  714. [19:07:36] <Melons> "What's wrong with pain?"
  715. [19:09:11] <Med> "So... you're not actually against me cheating on Mack?~"
  716. [19:09:40] <Melons> "I'm against it because it probably isn't what he wants."
  717. [19:10:10] <Med> "So? If it's what I want but what he doesn't want, why are his wants more important than mine?"
  718. [19:10:26] <Melons> "They're equal, which is why both need to be considered."
  719. [19:10:36] <Med> "Why?"
  720. [19:10:40] <Med> "It's my body, not his."
  721. [19:10:50] <Med> "I'm not doing anything at all to him!"
  722. [19:11:02] <Melons> "That's how relationships work. It would be like making your pokemon do something even if it didn't want to."
  723. [19:11:22] <Med> "How would I do that?"
  724. [19:11:46] <Melons> "Do which?"
  725. [19:11:57] <Med> "Force my pokemon to do something they don't want to?"
  726. [19:12:21] <Melons> "By commanding them even if they indicated, or in some cases directly said, they didn't want to."
  727. [19:12:40] <Med> "They could just not do it."
  728. [19:13:14] <Melons> "They'd be more inclined to do it because of your relationship with them."
  729. [19:14:04] <Med> "Then they would want to do it, just only for my sake~"
  730. [19:15:01] <Melons> "That...doesn't mean they WANT to do it."
  731. [19:16:13] <Melons> "See, I'll show you how it works...I'm tired as fuck, will you carry me the rest of the way on your back?"
  732. [19:16:58] <Med> "Nope~ I'm tired too~"
  733. [19:17:21] <Melons> "...but...I'm wounded!"
  734. [19:17:49] <Med> "So am I!"
  735. [19:18:03] <Med> "And it's your fault!~"
  736. [19:18:34] <Melons> "...but...that...doesn't...count...because...um...pleeeeeeeeeease?"
  737. [19:19:42] <Melons> 2d6+1 Charm Med
  738. [19:19:42] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Charm Med: 8 [2d6=1,6]
  739. [19:21:31] <Med> "I'm a demon, Mel~ I don't have feelings you can pander to~"
  740. [19:21:49] <Melons> "...Can I sell my soul instead?"
  741. [19:22:23] <Med> "Hmm... I could trryy..."
  742. [19:22:44] <Med> "But I'm really not as strong as my mom or my sister, you know..."
  743. [19:23:10] <Med> HEY AORI YOU'RE BACK JUST IN TIME FOR MED TO TRY SOMETHING DUMB
  744. [19:23:28] <Med> ARE YOU READY TO WATCH ME ROLL A FOCUS CHECK, AND FLUFF HOW INEPT MED IS AT BEING A DEMON?!
  745. [19:28:32] <Med> 3d6+6 FOCUS REALLY HARD ON STEALING MEL'S SOUL but in actuality try to make her into a shadow, rather than just deal injuries. injuries are boring and med doesn't want to actually hurt her :(
  746. [19:28:33] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, FOCUS REALLY HARD ON STEALING MEL'S SOUL but in actuality try to make her into a shadow, rather than just deal injuries. injuries are boring and med doesn't want to actually hurt her :(: 16 [3d6=2,3,5]
  747. [19:34:22] <~Aori_Radidjiu> If you still had your Aura stuff it might've worked, but instead you end up nibbling a little bit of her soul off. It's small enough that it actually doesn't damage her, but it's enough that it actually makes you feel a little more...complete, if you had to put it some way. Complete enough to have some feelings.
  748. [19:34:47] <Med> ew feelings
  749. [19:34:54] <Med> gross gross gross gross grosssss
  750. [19:37:12] <Med> do the feelings prevent me from wanting to eschew the feelings and be shadow again?
  751. [19:37:47] <Melons> Mel IS full of love, she's just mostly terrible at expressing it.
  752. [19:37:59] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You get some of Mel's feelings, really
  753. [19:38:19] <Med> what is mel currently feeling then?!
  754. [19:38:37] <Med> (and am i aware they're her feelings?)
  755. [19:39:25] <~Aori_Radidjiu> (I'll determine that after I see Mel's feelings~)
  756. [19:40:08] <Melons> Physically? Tired as fuck. Emotionally? ...everything? Sad that she doesn't know what to do for Po or Med, hopeful and happy that being with Med might be in his best interests and Med being with the crew may be best for her, distrustful of fucktards, love for newly caught pokemon, and inexplicable shame and paranoid directed at nothing in particular.
  757. [19:40:26] <Melons> *paranoia
  758. [19:41:10] <Med> that sounds like a pretty fuckin sudden rush of feelings
  759. [19:43:59] <~Aori_Radidjiu> HMMMMM
  760. [19:44:25] <Med> want an intuition check?
  761. [19:44:30] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Yeah, I do.
  762. [19:44:33] <Med> 3d6+6
  763. [19:44:33] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, 3d6+6: 16 [3d6=5,1,4]
  764. [19:45:09] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Yeah, you can tell they're hers.
  765. [19:45:34] * Med tries to... keep them from affecting her!
  766. [19:45:47] <Med> 3d6+6+2 focus! oh btw i forgot +2 to the last focus check. >_>
  767. [19:45:47] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, focus! oh btw i forgot +2 to the last focus check. >_>: 14 [3d6=2,2,2]
  768. [19:46:57] <Melons> 5d6+4 THIS IS HOW STRONK A PSYCHIC'S FEELINGS ARE
  769. [19:46:58] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, THIS IS HOW STRONK A PSYCHIC'S FEELINGS ARE: 22 [5d6=6,1,3,4,4]
  770. [19:47:20] <~Aori_Radidjiu> NOpe you're affected
  771. [19:47:25] <~Aori_Radidjiu> ~opposed rolls~
  772. [19:47:54] * Med is suddenly happy, sad, loving, distrustful, paranoid, and ashamed!
  773. [19:48:07] <Med> oh, and hopeful!
  774. [19:49:51] * Med has literally no idea how to react to this. This has literally never happened to her before.
  775. [19:50:08] <Med> I mean, even two would probably be overwhelming, but seven different emotions?!
  776. [19:50:43] <Melons> What did having her soul nibbled feel like to Mel?
  777. [19:50:51] <Med> Crying. Crying fits most of those things, and that is what she eventually opts for doing.
  778. [19:51:06] <~Aori_Radidjiu> It felt like how it felt when that Zubat nomfed you earlier.
  779. [19:51:52] <Melons> It feels like 22 physical damage and is also adorable?
  780. [19:52:29] <Med> "How do you... live like this?"
  781. [19:52:43] <Melons> "Geeze, okay, I'll walk, you can cut the w-...like...like what?"
  782. [19:53:27] <Med> "So confused! It's... so overwhelming!"
  783. [19:53:47] <Melons> "I...never said I was confused...did I?"
  784. [19:54:17] <Melons> "...did you do something? Was that not normal random pain I just felt?"
  785. [19:54:49] <Med> "I tried to take your soul... I don't want it! You can keep it!"
  786. [19:55:32] <Melons> "Hey, that was a j-...wait, you clearly got SOMETHING...what...what did you get?"
  787. [19:56:22] * Med tries to... spit the chunk of soul out?
  788. [19:59:03] <Melons> Mel, familiar with the close-ties between various ghostmons and specific feelings or emotions, manages to piece together the relationship between souls and feelings and realizes her assumption about ghosts was quite wrong. Irritation gets thrown into the mix of emotions, that is if the chunk of her soul is still linked, otherwise it stays safely with her. "...you...felt...my...feelings?"
  789. [20:00:05] <Med> "I didn't know I would... I didn't know I could... I knew people could feel conflicting emotions, but..."
  790. [20:00:26] <Melons> "...that's...not normal?"
  791. [20:00:35] <Melons> "...cool."
  792. [20:00:43] <Med> "I've never... felt them before..."
  793. [20:02:08] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Naw, not linked anymore
  794. [20:02:49] <Melons> "So...you're NOT going to carry me?"
  795. [20:02:50] <Med> "I mean... sort of... in empathic links, but..."
  796. [20:03:13] <Med> "No... you can keep your soul, I don't want it, think of a better deal!"
  797. [20:04:10] <Med> "Why am I happy, too? I don't get iittt!"
  798. [20:04:19] <Melons> "Oh, it gets better actually! It makes it reaaaaaaaally hard to concentrate now that I'm also psychic and...okay, they told me blowing up someone's head would be impressive and is really hard, but I'm more convinced there's just this deep subconscious desire to NOT blow up someone's head most people have that aids in preventing. I mean, it doesn't take much force to blow up someone's head."
  799. [20:05:10] <Med> "I told you feelings just get in the way!"
  800. [20:05:27] <Melons> "Yeah, but sometimes I really DON'T want to blow up someone's head. Like I don't want to blow up your head...."
  801. [20:05:37] <Melons> Mel lets this compl...im...ent? sink in.
  802. [20:06:55] <Med> "Then you just don't."
  803. [20:07:35] <Melons> "But...feelings keep things...interesting and fun."
  804. [20:07:49] <Melons> "Even ghosts have them. The only things that don't are like...robots...and robots are boring."
  805. [20:08:04] <Melons> "Ooooooh, I'll try to do the robot for you later if you carry me!"
  806. [20:08:58] <Med> "Huh... maybe Gran understands me, then..."
  807. [20:09:18] <Med> a-aori can i assume that by this point, med has shaken off most of the feelings and they're just sort of echos, or are they still afflicting her PRETTY STRONGLY?
  808. [20:09:32] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Echo~
  809. [20:09:36] <Med> yay
  810. [20:09:44] <Melons> Melfeels have a way of boring into your head even as echos, of course.
  811. [20:09:58] <Med> i assume the paranoia is
  812. [20:10:07] <Med> both the most subtle and the most persistent emotion
  813. [20:10:21] <~Aori_Radidjiu> of course!
  814. [20:10:34] <Med> like a soft but constant humming in the background that you can't really hear when people are talking, but as soon as things get quiet it becomes deafening
  815. [20:10:48] <Melons> Now imagine it always being deafening!
  816. [20:10:58] <Med> ah. so mel's ears are just ringing then. okay~
  817. [20:11:10] <Melons> Too bad she isn't Soundproof!
  818. [20:11:16] <Med> soundproof op
  819. [20:11:22] <Melons> "...alright, what do YOU want in return for you carrying me?"
  820. [20:12:41] <Med> "Something immediate. If you just promise something later, how can I trust that?"
  821. [20:12:58] <Med> "... Wow, you're very distrustful~"
  822. [20:13:04] <Melons> "Oh, you got that too...um...sh-shut up..."
  823. [20:13:23] <Med> "No wonder you won't just go with me..."
  824. [20:14:23] <Med> "I bet you think I'll just turn violent like my mom, and stuff!"
  825. [20:14:45] <Med> "Or that I'll sell you out~
  826. [20:14:45] <Med> "
  827. [20:14:56] <Melons> Mel starts digging through her inventory. "I can give you...some of these suppressant berries that I'm pretty sure are poisonous. Like, in the way the way that makes you throw up, not deadly...a dull ro- oh shit, I should have asked Lecia about that...um....um...someone else's coconut top...why do I keep this here...AND OF COURSE YOU WOULD! BOTH OF THOSE THINGS!"
  828. [20:15:26] <Med> "I'll probably have to hurt people," says Med honestly.
  829. [20:15:37] <Med> "I don't think they'll let me in without doing that from time to time."
  830. [20:15:43] <Melons> "I only want you hurting people I don't like..."
  831. [20:16:06] <Med> "But I'm not interested in a life of violence~"
  832. [20:16:33] <Med> "Especially now that I can't even fight properly..." :c
  833. [20:17:15] <Melons> "What do you mean? Didn't you throw shadow shit at the bat? You missed, of course as I predicted, but still."
  834. [20:17:47] <Med> "Yeah, but... I haven't been able to do that in years!"
  835. [20:18:27] <Melons> Do you know what I do in fights? I throw things and I use my mind to try to confuse people. I don't shoot waves of pain and death. Preeeeeetty sure you can fight properly."

  839. [20:19:52] <Med> "You saw my mom and my sister fight. I'm nothing compared to that!"

  849. [20:23:11] <Med> "What if she gets bored of always having to lead you along?~"

  853. [20:24:20] <Melons> "I can't...I can't very well lecture you about your treatment of Mack and do the same to her!"
  854. [20:24:38] <Med> "You could just tell her that you went to me for advice~"
  855. [20:24:47] <Melons> "But you would know!"

  858. [20:25:45] <Med> "Nope~ The only feeling left is a teeny, tiny bit of distrust~"
  859. [20:27:09] <Melons> "How about a hug, hugs are fun and platonic!"
  860. [20:27:54] <Med> "That'd be a lot of skin touching~ I think it might be safer to make out."
  861. [20:28:20] <Melons> "I'm covered in various types of blood, that sounds the opposite of safe."
  862. [20:29:20] <Melons> "...It's...two...but...two is various."
  863. [20:30:55] <Melons> "Also I should probably reserve all of my fluids at the moment, don't want to get dehydrated with all that...bat poison."
  864. [20:31:48] <Med> "Huh... I'm just guessing, but..."
  865. [20:32:07] <Med> "Since you're such a conflicted person, I bet the reason you're arguing so much is 'cause you want to!"
  866. [20:32:51] <Melons> "...one kiss. No more than that."
  867. [20:34:50] <Med> "Okaayy, but it better be a long one if you really want me to carry you all the way out~"
  868. [20:36:06] <Melons> "On second...or...like...eighth thought..." Sleight comes out. "Sleight, carry me out of here!"
  869. [20:38:09] <Med> "You're gonna make that poor thing carry you?"
  870. [20:38:28] <Med> "Is that what you meant by making pokemon do things?"
  871. [20:38:33] <Med> "And how it's bad?"
  872. [20:39:17] <Melons> "He's...fine...I mean...he's about as strong as you...and...in better condition...and...I mean...he'd want to help me...like I'd help him..."
  873. [20:39:50] <Med> "So you're gonna make him carry you, and then you're gonna go home to Mirai and bore her?~"
  874. [20:40:48] <Melons> "I can't bore her because I'm n- oh...you meant...that kind of bore...um...I don't think I'd...did...has she been talking to you about me?"
  875. [20:41:27] <Med> "Not really~ I just remember when I first started doing that stuff!" :3
  876. [20:42:46] <Melons> "Wh-what do you mean?"
  877. [20:44:11] <Med> "I was pretty inexperienced too!"
  878. [20:44:37] <Melons> "How does this involve making people think you're boring?"
  879. [20:45:33] <Med> "Well... I mean... you're, like... ashamed of your body and stuff, right?"
  880. [20:45:48] <Med> "So how'll you learn how to do things on your own, if you can't get over that?"
  881. [20:45:58] <Melons> "With her help of course..."
  882. [20:46:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> Sleight is totally ready to carry you out.
  883. [20:46:50] <Med> "See! She'll just have to keep leading you around forever!"
  884. [20:47:10] <Melons> "...Sleight, asking you to carry me isn't too much...is it?"
  885. [20:47:37] <~Aori_Radidjiu> He shakes his head.
  886. [20:48:12] <~Aori_Radidjiu> \He turns inot that kind of emo kid looking disguise and puts out his arms. "I-I'll carry you, b-baby!"
  887. [20:48:27] <Melons> "...that's...a...little creepy...actually..."
  888. [20:48:44] <Med> wait
  889. [20:48:45] <Melons> "I mean...you're...you're doing good with the diguise...but...I...don't want that..."
  890. [20:48:47] <Med> is it the same one med saw?
  891. [20:48:51] <Melons> Yes.
  892. [20:48:57] <~Aori_Radidjiu> You could've sworn there was something almost exactly like that in one of your soaps
  893. [20:49:03] <~Aori_Radidjiu> your parents' soaps
  894. [20:49:05] <~Aori_Radidjiu> one of the soaps
  895. [20:49:08] <~Aori_Radidjiu> that Sleight watched
  896. [20:49:42] <Med> "Wait... Sleight tried to pick me up?"
  897. [20:50:00] <~Aori_Radidjiu> "M-maybe I did!"
  898. [20:50:34] <Melons> "What, no, we're talking about picking ME...oh...yeah I did send him in after you...when we weren't getting along...are we getting along now?"
  899. [20:50:48] <Med> "I dunno~ You aren't kissing me, so you must hate me~"
  900. [20:51:03] <Melons> "Pretty sure it doesn't work that way..."
  901. [20:51:16] <~Aori_Radidjiu> "Ah kiss yew!" That's more like a suggestion than a declaration, but it's the thought that counts, right?
  902. [20:51:24] <Med> "Kissing is love, so the opposite must be hate!"
  903. [20:52:05] <Melons> "Sleight...what...are...you...what...that's...not...how...love...works...I don't think..."
  904. [20:52:32] <Med> "You just wouldn't know~ You're inexperienced~"
  905. [20:54:25] <~Aori_Radidjiu> "M-melmel dun' kiss me..."
  906. [20:55:40] <Melons> "We're...not talking about...our type of friendship...also you were literally playing in trash when we met...I just assumed that's something you like doing...and I don't wan- you know what, I'll explain it later." Sleight gets recalled.
  907. [20:55:53] <Med> "Mel doesn't kiss anyone, she's just so shy~"
  908. [20:57:33] <Melons> "I...kiss...Mirai...sometimes..."
  909. [20:58:14] <Med> "Only sometimes~?"
  910. [20:58:33] <Melons> "When...she kisses me..."
  911. [20:58:46] <Med> "Wow~ you really are boring!"
  912. [20:58:59] <Melons> "But she keeps being gone doing...I don't know what...so...it's mostly whenever we're stuck on the ship...so...I don't know..."
  913. [21:01:48] <Melons> "ALRIGHT IF IT GETS US OUT OF HERE...COME KISS ME!" Mel shakily stands up, sliding her goggles on to cover the terror in her eyes.
  914. [21:04:08] * Med stands up too, since she probably sat down too at some point, and takes the goggles off of Mel's face. "That's your first lesson," she explains!
  915. [21:04:57] <Med> "And your second lesson... well... you're the one kissing me, right?"
  916. [21:06:20] <Melons> "This is just one kiss! Just this one time! And then...and then I'll explain it to Mirai...and everything will work out..." Mel takes a breath and... "...can you crouch down or lean over a little? My feet are too tired to get on my toes..."
  917. [21:07:13] * Med is only three inches taller than mel, and probably leaning down already, god how much lower does she have to get!
  918. [21:07:31] <Melons> Most mounts walk on all fours.
  919. [21:07:39] <Med> tmi
  920. [21:07:43] <Med> also
  921. [21:07:45] <Med> only inferior mounts do.
  922. [21:07:47] <Med> superior mounts fly
  923. [21:08:28] <Melons> Mel takes another breath and smooches Med on the lips for a few seconds, having greater than zero knowledge what she's doing this time. "Can we go now?"
  924. [21:09:03] * Med kisses back - apparently she just wanted Mel to start the kiss.
  925. [21:09:35] <Med> "Nope~ you broke away too soon~" RESUME KISS
  926. [21:13:08] <Med> 6d6+6+2 also, make out with a mel o/~ DICE ROLLS ARE HOW WE DETERMINE HOW GOOD PEOPLE ARE AT KISSING RIGHT?!
  927. [21:13:09] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, also, make out with a mel o/~ DICE ROLLS ARE HOW WE DETERMINE HOW GOOD PEOPLE ARE AT KISSING RIGHT?!: 27 [6d6=5,3,1,5,2,3]
  928. [21:14:00] <Melons> Is kissing a Standard Action?
  929. [21:14:33] <Melons> Oh, you only lose health for standards during combat at 5 injuries, carry on.
  930. [21:15:30] <Melons> After an uncomfortable amount of time, Mel pulls away again. "Pleeeeeease?"
  931. [21:16:05] <Med> "Wow... you really don't like this stuff~"
  932. [21:16:20] <Med> "That or I'm worse than I thought!"
  933. [21:16:33] <Melons> "Nono, I like it...but...um...there's...Mirai..."
  934. [21:17:04] <Melons> "And...Mack...ohgodwhatdidIdohowthefuckdidIforgetthattoo"
  935. [21:17:39] <Med> "You did this~" kissu again, although this time not UNCOMFORTABLY LONG
  936. [21:18:47] <Melons> 6d6+3 Acrobatics check to mount Med. Obviously, she pulls away from the kiss while pulling herself onto Med's back like a (for now) ninja.
  937. [21:18:49] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Acrobatics check to mount Med. Obviously, she pulls away from the kiss while pulling herself onto Med's back like a (for now) ninja.: 17 [6d6=3,2,2,3,2,2]
  938. [21:22:07] <Med> "Wow, you're heavy..."
  939. [21:22:14] <Melons> "Sh-shut up..."
  940. [21:22:46] * Med probably laughs at poor mel~
  941. [21:22:46] <Melons> "Or I'll make you feel my emotions again!"
  942. [21:23:00] <Med> "I'm the one that did that in the first place, not you!~"
  943. [21:23:59] * Med puts on mel's goggles >:3
  944. [21:23:59] <DiceMaid-9001> JESUS CHRIST, IT'S A LION, GET IN THE CAR!
  945. [21:24:00] * DiceMaid-9001 gets in the car
  946. [21:24:41] <Melons> "I'll find a way...also I'm probably going to just sit here and ache and cry while you walk...so...you know...yeah...those are mine...but...if I'm going to do that instead of leading you, you'll need them...so...okay...um...thanks...even though I hate everything concerning the circumstances of this deal..."
  947. [21:26:53] <Med> "You need to worry less~ maybe I should turn you into a shadow~"
  948. [21:27:34] <Melons> "I don't even think you can do that...also I don't want to potentially fuck up the god hunting me like that..."
  949. [21:28:48] * Med starts walkin'. It's pretty slow since apparently she went down from 5m/round to 1m/round, and even if she hustled (sprinted?) it would be useless since +1/2 rounds down to +0! "My sister can... mommy might be able to... so I can probably learn how too."
  950. [21:29:15] <Med> "I wonder if my shadows would be as violent..."
  951. [21:29:25] <Melons> "I don't want to be anyone's shadow..."
  952. [21:33:16] <Melons> "I don't even trust my own shadow!" It's...a joke?
  953. [21:36:22] <Med> "Seee? You need to loosen up~"
  954. [21:39:34] <Melons> "Yeaaaaaah, it's hard to loosen up when you're being hunted by a god and fighting pirates and presumably now on some sort of hit list of Team Aether's..."
  955. [21:39:59] <Med> "That's why you should just join Team Aether!"
  956. [21:40:31] <Melons> "No, I hate them because they kill things arbitrarily. I'm going to try to nap or something, dont' wake me unless we're out or we see someone or we're dying."
  957. [21:41:42] <Med> "Yeah, but... you might actually get the answers you're looking for, if you do."
  958. [21:42:36] <Melons> "Not worth it."
  959. [21:44:13] <Med> "Then you don't actually want answers~"
  960. [21:45:30] <Melons> "I just wait my hate for arbitrary violence over my desire to learn about scary things even at the potential cost of my life. Now good night...also, my mattress isn't very comfortable."
  961. [21:45:56] <Med> "This... isn't usually how you sleep on girls~"
  962. [21:46:32] <Melons> "I wouldn't know, I usually sleep alone." Aaaaaaaaaaw.
  963. [21:47:05] <Med> "I'm tired too, so... once we're outside... we can practice that too~"
  964. [21:47:24] <Melons> No reply.
  965. [21:47:54] * Med EVENTUALLY GETS OUTSIDE HOLY SHIT IT'S SLOW MOVING WHEN YOU'RE staggered
