DNA: 	FIRST POST
Actinidia has connected.
Grace has connected.
Narrator: 	No word from Ava?
Grace: 	Dere we go
Narrator: 	Does someone have Ava's number?
Narrator: 	Kayla's using my phone.
Actinidia: 	No
Narrator: 	Damn. Ava had a thing to do today like, 3 hours before gametime. Wasn't sure if that caused stuff.
Narrator: 	Okay so, the encounter I had in mind POTENTIALLY had combat consequences.
Narrator: 	Would you prefer a non-combat encounter with Ava not being present?
Grace: 	Well, personally I think you shouldn't augment the chances if they're not here or are. But that's just me.
Actinidia: 	I could go either way.
Narrator: 	I don't augment numbers.
Narrator: 	But I literally created the encounters like, 40 minutes before gametime.
DNA: 	Technically I would, since Etna is one of the main muscles of the party. But on the other hand, Etna is also winded from the previous encounter.
Narrator: 	I have a selection to choose.
Grace: 	Sorry, I meant more the odds of it being peiceful or not. ^^;
Actinidia: 	1dcombat?
Grace: 	Oh. Fair enough that makes sense.
Narrator: 	I can do that Rob.
Narrator: 	Let me count them.
Narrator: 	Or I could call Mike and let him choose.
* Narrator calls Mike.
DNA: 	Oh my.
Narrator: 	Mike doesn't want to be social.
Narrator: 	So, dice roll it is.
Narrator: 	Huh, I thought of 7.
Narrator: 	Old Man
Women
Party
Ghost Map
The Eyes Have It
Mankeyrino
Devimap
Narrator: 	Who wants to roll 1d7?
DNA: 	I will do it.
DNA: 	BEHOLD...
DNA: 	2
Narrator: 	Don't roll 5
DNA: 	I didn't roll 5
DNA: 	Happy?
Narrator: 	5 was the original encounter.
Narrator: 	So, kinda.
Actinidia: 	The eyes have it *shiver*
Narrator: 	If you rolled 5, I already had the encounter ready.
Narrator: 	But 2!
DNA: 	Made me wonder what that was too!
Grace: 	What's up with the eyes have it? You know somethin' we don't Grass snek?
Narrator: 	What? The Eyes Have It?
Narrator: 	Encounter 2 is WOMEN.
Actinidia: 	It's a FATE from Final Fantasy XIV. A very dangerous encounter.
Narrator: 	And Ava's back.
Narrator: 	RETCON
Narrator: 	You all suffer The Eyes Have It now.
Narrator: 	but thx for roll
DNA: 	Oh, I see.
DNA: 	...wait, what?
Narrator: 	Ava's here.
Narrator: 	We proceed as originally planned. :3
DNA: 	NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Narrator: 	...............
UNLESS you'd prefer WOMEN
DNA: 	Actually I just want an opportunity to mess up your plans
Narrator: 	But all 7 are my plans.
Actinidia: 	I would like to meet The Woman.
DNA: 	I WOULDN'T.
Actinidia: 	I mean.
DNA: 	YOU SHUT UP.
Narrator: 	HAHAHAHAHA
Narrator: 	Someone should explain The Woman to Grace
Avara has connected.
Narrator: 	Unfortunately fortunately, DNA is very good at explanations.
DNA: 	Except The Woman gives me pretty heavy PTSD, so my explanation may be...colored.
Avara: 	DNAsplanation
Actinidia: 	Okay, now I'm curious about it.
DNA: 	Expldnation
DNA: 	Curious about what?
Narrator: 	Explodenation
Narrator: 	About your colored splanation
Avara: 	things to be explained?
Narrator: 	The Woman to Grac
Narrator: 	Grace, rather
Avara: 	ah
Actinidia: 	So The Woman was a villain. She had access to multiple universes and advanced magic and technology from all of them. She had many, many, many back up plans and methods of coming up to life. Soul trading, memory downloads, imprinting herself on the lifestream, back-up-bodies, etc.
DNA: 	Rather overarching plot figure throughout the entirety of AEB. Keeps herself effectively immortal using a system involving body doubles and soul 'respawning'. Her exact age is unknown and perhaps innumerable, and her ultimate goal is complete control over everything.
Actinidia: 	She was behind a lot of things, but kept her agendas hidden. She enabled a lot of villains and was near impossible to kill permanently.
DNA: 	Weirdly, one timeline actually succeeded in killing her permanently.
Actinidia: 	I picutre Lilea traveling the multiverse in pursuit of her. Using tricks and technology stolen from her. That's her post game.
Actinidia: 	Anyway! Yeah, nasty frustrating character.
DNA: 	Finding out she was the actual big bad of AEB PR1 gave me...a fair amount of ache and frustration.
DNA: 	To the point where when I found out that PA was going to kill her for good, I wanted in.
Avara: 	think we might run into her in AEB SATPM?
Grace: 	Man... I love time/alternate dimention shenaniganery so much as an idea. Whew lad I like the cut of her jib, even though she's apparently evil.
DNA: 	I don't know, honestly.
Actinidia is disconnected.
Avara: 	also calling it AEB SATPM after the more popular, successful, and grim sonic cartoon Sonic SATAM
Avara: 	PM because it happens saturday afternoon/evening
Narrator: 	What's SATPM?
Avara: 	Saturday PM
Narrator: 	Ahhh
Avara: 	sonic SATAM was sonic saturday AM. because it happened saturday mornings.
DNA: 	I just call it AEB Zero
Narrator: 	Project AEB Zero.
Avara: 	it was actually just Sonic The Hedgehog, but people called it Sonic SatAM to distinguish it
Narrator: 	The One Sonic
For the record:
TIME: 9:41 AM
	Boom Box: 	"Come with way."
	Boom Box: 	"That's what I hear him say."
	Boom Box: 	"From somewhere beneath."
	Boom Box: 	"He takes ahold of me."
Actinidia has connected.
	Boom Box: 	"In his eyes a gleam."
	Boom Box: 	"Only seen in a dream."
	Boom Box: 	"Shedding the flesh clutch."
	Boom Box: 	"His hand I wanna touch."
	Boom Box: 	"Gonna open the doorway."
	Boom Box: 	"To the in-between."
	Boom Box: 	"Comin' and goin'."
	Boom Box: 	"As I please."
Boom Box: (( Did we wanna just flash over to the encounter or did you guys have stuff to work out at the place? ))
DNA: 	I think we got all of our food and stuff handled, and we're ready to head back.
	Actinidia: 	(( Aside from turning off the boombox and taking it with us, I have nothing else to do ))
Grace: 	I think those two got everything stated.
Boom Box: (( But why? ))
	Actinidia: 	(( Turn off to not draw the attention we've already drawn because it was rolled. ))
Grace: 	Well we're gonna be taking that boombox because it's pretty much sounding like it's taking clips to speak to us so there's something going on with it, and considering Grace's encounter with that sign earler, she's thinking that they're linked.
Avara: 	even if it's not something actually suspicious, it's music and we might be able to work out how to contact the DJ eventually.
Narrator: 	Alright. I'm hearing, "Fuck you GM, teleport us so we can ruin all your shit!"
Narrator: 	So, I'll do just that. And watch.
Narrator: 	Anyone editing their tokens on BM001?
Grace: 	Wait, I'm not saying you should just TP us.
Grace: 	And, no not at the moment?
Narrator: 	Figure I ask before I delete them and paste them further north.
	Actinidia: 	Not editing, no
DNA: 	All my edits on them are done.
Avara: 	i'm good.
Avara: 	don't think i have a reason to edit.
Actinidia: 	Enforce
Actinidia: 	?
Narrator: 	Was pasting lots. :3
Avara: 	in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king
Narrator: 	Ya'll ready ma pcs?
DNA: 	I'm ready.
Avara: 	ready.
Actinidia: 	ready
DNA: 	Hey look, the remnants of our last encounter on the street!
You're traveling back toward home with all the goods acquired. The recent encounter with the Seekers of Blood fresh in your mind when you notice some of the vehicles along the street, recently on fire (or were a few days ago) are now nicely lined up with some evolved Pokémon leaning against them. One of them has their back to you and is 18 feet tall. It looks like an angry back and has its back to you while two are leaning against a car. A Lopunny is leaning against a red truck with her arms folded while another leans against a police car with her hands on her hips. The Lopunny turn toward you as you approach and you get a clear view of their heads. Their eyes are missing entirely.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2's ears twitch as she turns to you, "Tiny. Small. Small. Large. Wheels. Heavy."
	No-Eyed Lopunny: 	No-Eyed Lopunny looks directly at you, well, as best she can with her face having no eyes to speak of, "Steel. Grass. Rock. Fighting. Rock. Ice. Metal." No-Eyed Lopunny sniffs a few times, "Meat."
* Pierce Mars Oswell has been walking slowly up to this point, and now makes it a point to slow down, stop, and not speak at all.
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia tapped her chin. "Interesting..."
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	One-Eyed King Pangoro turns his head slowly and stands. You can see his face and notice he's missing a single eye. His remaining eye flickers about to study you all before he growls a bit, "...Test them."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace was a touch still shellshocked, so she's more content with no more fighting today, so she'll follow Mars's quiet suit.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace Leonhardt, taking a five minute breather, is healed and gains 10 health and 9 power.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	(Sorry forgot to take the breather after last session)
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	...come to think of it, I may have also forgotten. Let me check the log.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Ah, only Etna and Grace got it. Never mind, then.
	Etna: 	Etna, taking a five minute breather, is healed and gains 12 health and 10 power.
	Actinidia: 	"Can it be an oral test?"
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace snaps back to reality, "Wait what? What test?"
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	A No-Eyed Lopunny 1 moves around the northern car and steps forward. He face is slightly tilted down but her ears and cautious walk notifies you that she's well aware of where you are, "Approach me. You needn't fear. I won't harm you unless you give me reason to. Come."
* Etna steps closer, but stays out of easy reach.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace will hesitate, but she'll pull herself out of the wagon, and walk over as well.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 patiently waits. She stands nigh perfectly still. The only movement, her fur in the wind.
	Etna: 	"What manner of test are you giving out, and why?"
Actinidia is disconnected.
Actinidia has connected.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 twists her neck slowly, turning so her left ear faces you. It wiggles independently in the air as she speaks, seemingly moving with the sound of her own voice, "I will explain when all of you approach. You needn't fear me. You must've fear me. Caring, Loving, Trusting am I. Gentle, oh so gentle."
No-Eyed Lopunny 1: (( mustn't. Not must've. ))
No-Eyed Lopunny 1: (( Mustn't. ))
	Actinidia: 	Perception (Empathy/Insight/Forgot) 6+3+4+1=14
No-Eyed Lopunny 1: (( You'll need to specify what you're searching for with that empathy of yours. ))
* Pierce Mars Oswell still doesn't move. He doesn't know what will happen and suspects some sort of trap. He's trying to make his breathing as quiet as possible, since he can't hold his breath forever.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace will feel a bit more confidant feeling not so afraid to fight right now, as well as the fact she's a fighting type so she could probably take her in CQC... right? never the less, she'll approach.
	Actinidia: 	Right! Lopunny 1 and any sense of deception or falsehood or hidden agenda in her speech.
No-Eyed Lopunny 1 whispers: Vitality Stamina test or Dexterity Stealth.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Stealth 1+4+1+7=13 (STUNT! 1 Stunt Point)
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	3+5+5+2=15
DNA: 	Not spending. And man that was a weakass roll.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 hangs her head a bit and looks to Grace with her missing eyes. She holds her hand out slightly before Grace, "If you may, please? Touch me. I would feel your warmth. Your features to see. Then, your friends beside you, yes?"
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia has a very suspicious expression.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Hesitantly once more, she'll take the rabbit's hand with her own.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 shudders as she feels Grace's hands and then gets on her knees before Grace, bringing them face to face.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 is now prone.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 gently caresses Grace's hands and furrows her brow, tilting her head side to side, "Augmented." No-Eyed Lopunny 1 moves her fingers gently to Grace's wrists, "For combat. So much potential. So much brutality in your power." No-Eyed Lopunny 1 pauses, "But controlled. Gentle. Reluctant."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 gently pulls her hands away and nods to Grace, "Thank you." No-Eyed Lopunny 1 holds her hands out to Actinidia, "May I see you now?"
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace was kinda weirded out by this, but is kinda appreciating that she was eyelevel with something instead of constantly craning her neck. Though she wasn't gonna make that verbal. Though as she listens to the rabbit, she was unsure of what to feel. She wasn't entirely wrong. She'll pull her hand away once she lets it go. "You're... welcome?"
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia placed her hand on the Lopunny's.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 turns her hands around to feels Actinidia's. In doing so, she pauses and flinches.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	After a moment, she'll turn her head some and then continue, moving along Actinidia's wrists.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2's ears lifts slightly.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	"You're...a natural." No-Eyed Lopunny 1 says, "Cunning. Thoughtful. Reckless. Thorough."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 leans forward and whispers to Actinidia. Perception (Hearing) to overhear. TN13 for Etna and Mars. 8 for Grace.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	6+6+6+0=18
	Grace Leonhardt: 	WELP
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Hearing 5+5+1+3=14 (STUNT! 5 Stunt Points)
No-Eyed Lopunny 1 whispers: This is your second life, I feel. Your heart doesn't bleed like ours in this new world. This is good. You're a natural leader. But be warned, the world is not finished changing. There is more to come and I hope your heart remains steeled.
	Etna: 	2+2+4+0=8
* Etna fails to hear things.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 relinquishes her touch on Actinidia and stands slowly, "I will see to your companions if you would have me."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 is no longer prone and slowly moves to the south.
* Etna approaches. "I'm quadrupedal, so I can't give you a hand.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 reaches out in front of her and then goes still, "Please, may I see you?"
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 pauses and nods, "I am not a stranger to non-humanshape form. But it is you who will need trust me. My hands can see your face, if you allow it."
* Etna looks over to Grace, in position to interfere if anything goes wrong. Then she looks back to Lopunny. "You have my permission."
* Etna lowers her head to be reachable.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 reaches up and gently touches Etna's cheeks with her hands. Exploring its form and her 'ears'. No-Eyed Lopunny 1 sighs painfully, "You have not..."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace gives a nod of her head, seeing Etna's look. Though she'll lean over to Act, "...What do you think she means by augmented or Natural...?" She'll say trying to fein that she didn't listen in.
	Actinidia: 	"I have theories, but I would like to hear more."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 pauses and then gently trails her fingers along Etna's face and underneath her chin before pulling away, "Almost motherly, you are. There is so much love in your heart. But so much pain. So much." No-Eyed Lopunny 1 relaxes some, "Almost human."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 leans off to the side and motions to Mars, "You do not trust me. Us. You don't trust us."
* Pierce Mars Oswell still doesn't move, pretending he didn't hear.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"... Memories...?" she'll whisper. Grace will look over to mars hearing, or not hearing his silent protest. She'll approach him, and pat him attempting to be comforting.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Mars doesn't look annoyed or anything. He's just...doing his best impression of a statue.
	Etna: 	"Considering we've just dealt with a den of Seekers of Blood, he's probably not well set to deal with others right now. After that, any unknown organization is one worth questioning."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 sighs and then drops her hands. She tilts her head some and then nods, "...Seek."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 1: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 1 turns and looks to No-eyed Lopunny 2, "...That one does not wish me to see. But they..." No-Eyed Lopunny 1 wiped her face, careful to avoid her eye sockets but does so in a manner to replicate wiping tears. But there were no tears. She can't cry. Not anymore.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace is now extremely confused as to what the f*ck was going on.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 walks forward, placing her hands behind her head and holding her neck comfortably, "So. You met them. How was it? How did it go?"
Actinidia is disconnected.
Actinidia has connected.
	Etna: 	"We were searching food dispensaries--restaurants, fast food places, and the like--from before the Change. The road was stained with dry blood and gore. We encountered them as they left a restaurant, chanting 'seek', 'less', 'more' and 'blood' in diffferent strings, tap-dancing in patterns. When the leader of the squad came out, she declared it was time to 'seek blood' and battle began."
	Etna: 	"It was, like many of our fights, quick. The only notable event of the fight was that one Seeker killed another as collateral while attacking us."
	Etna: 	"Inside the building, it was full of corpses. Pokemon and children. They -like- killing children. And there were meat hooks everywhere. We chased the only one who managed to run from the fight through there, stopped her escape, and made our interrogation. When we were done, we searched the restaurant for anything of use and left."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"Well... there's also one that killed themselves infront of me, instead of wanting to be KO'd or captured or... whatever they thought was gonna happen..."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Well, we're..." No-Eyed Lopunny 2 paused and thought a moment.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Sort of...honorary members of the Seekers of Order. Though, it's more like we share their ideals and don't interfere with one another."
	Etna: 	"I see."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"The Seekers of Blood, however, are enemy to all. I'm not even sure how their ranks work. How can you even recruit someone into that if you kill for pleasure? For sport?"
	Actinidia: 	"Do you know a lot about the organizations around here? I remember we crossed paths with a group living on a grassy field who wished to have nothing to do with us 'monsters'."
	Etna: 	"The same way you hook anyone into the darker side of things. One member there was new, and gave the impression of a wannabe gangster."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"They generally don't attack unless they have some sort of advantage. Unless there's children. They will try to kill children, even at a disadvantage."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 rubs her chin, "I know of three. Official ones anyway."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"There's Blood, Order and Truth. There are probably smaller factions like the one you mentioned. I haven't encountered such a grassy field though."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"I did encounter a fire monkey. He was...different."
	Etna: 	"He's a fairly interesting one."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Mila, how did you describe the fire monkey?"
	Etna: 	"Do any of your group have memories of human society from Before?"
	Mila: 	"Death. He was death."
	Mila: 	"He cared for the safety of his wife and child and would kill anyone who threatened them."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 nods before turning back to Etna, "I was a secretary."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 nods to Mila, "She was a spiritualist. Soothsayer or something."
	Mila: 	"Seer."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Whatever."
	Actinidia: 	"I was a sound engineer."
	Etna: 	"We're in charge of a group based out of the White House. Formerly a gang of snake Pokemon, but we toppled the leader and took over. We're working on safety and agriculture for our group, right now."
	Actinidia: 	"Or something, it was a bit freelance..."
	Etna: 	"Now. I believe I asked you what your test is, and why you give it."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"Wait what? You were a seer? Right. Well, I was a college student."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"We agreed that if we can avoid aggression, we do. Mila is able to form bonds with people or some shit. It seems to work. Builds trust."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Better than my way, at least."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"I just ask a few questions. Starting, with How many have you killed?"
	Etna: 	"As many as I've had to, more than I've wanted to. But I never counted."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"If you don't want to answer, or take to long, I'll say how many I have."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Then you've lost your humanity already. I've kept count. I counted."
	Etna: 	"If you say so." Etna shrugs.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"When I hit the double digits I wanted to forget. But I couldn't."
* Etna turns her head to look at the One-Eyed King.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 inhales deeply but regains her composure, "The others here. They don't kill. They'll maim, injure, whatever they can to protect. To live. But I kill. I save them from that."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"They are kind people. They don't need to go to hell just because the world has. I keep them clean from that sort of sin. That sort of guilt. Those kinds of nightmares."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 glances to Actinidia, "But, you were curious about organizations, right?"
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Well, Blood excluded, to understand the other two you have to understand the belief system."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Do you know of the belief system?"
	Actinidia: 	"I was. We seem to be leading one, it's rather important I know what is around."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"I... don't think I'm aware of one?"
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 nods, "The belief system is fundamentally a human one. But it has garnered attention from the inhumans."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Some inhumans even believe in it to. And that's the world as it is now? That it was deliberate."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Humans and inhumans agree that with that in mind, it was a deliberately human cause. Some human, somewhere, fucked everyone over. Or gave everyone a new, better life depending on who you ask."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"The world is Pokemon now. Which was a human creation to entertain children or something. My son loved it."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace will stay a bit silent, considering she dressed up as a character when all this sh*t went down.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"He's gone now, by the way. Slaughtered by what I could only guess as our fish. I turned into a tiny bunny rabbit. My son was sleep in his room with his aquarium. Then there were the sounds. The explosions. Woke me out of my sleep and then I noticed I changed. I rushed to see my son and there he was, being devoured by a binch of purple rats."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Fucking..." No-Eyed Lopunny 2 paused and tilted her head back, putting her hands back on her hips, "...The belief system. The belief that someone, somewhere chose for this shit to happen."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Somehow they caused the world to become this. I don't know why someone would be so cruel. Why someone would want to kill so many people and throw everything into chaos. But, yeah. That's the belief."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Now, as a result of that, two things happened. People rose up, like me, to protect others. To secure our future."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"And our future is children. They're the only humans left and my fucking gawd they were a fraction of the world population. And a shitton of them died in the initial change. Humans are endangered and if we don't keep them alive, humanity as a whole is lost forever."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"The Seekers of Order protect children. They try to create safe havens or whatever to keep children safe and alive. By any means."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Then, you got those assholes calling themselves the Seekers of Truth."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"They want to find 'the source' as they call it. The source of everything that changed. They think there's some single point on the planet where this originated. And that if they destroy it, close it or whatever, things will go back to normal."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Unlike Order, they don't care about children. Their goal is to revert the world back to normal so, what do they care if some kids die? Humanity won't be lost as far as they're concerned."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"They don't attack children or anything. But they don't rescue them. They don't protect them. They ignore them."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"And you've met Blood first hand. No know how crazy those fuckers are. I see Blood? I kill them. On sight. No mercy."
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Mars's eyes narrow just a bit. While he is still not wanting to make noise, he is now visibly unsettled. ...Not like they would be able to tell, or so he thinks.
	Actinidia: 	"The blood I interogated didn't like me. What did she call me? Bystander? Something dismissive. Which was odd because I could kill her at any moment. She didn't seem to realize it or care."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"You'd do well to kill any Blood you see too. Seekers of Blood will only plot your deaths. And know that they won't forget you. They'll remember you. Who you are, where you were, where you went. Who you met. And they'll spread it to other Blood. And you'll be dead within days. But if you're strong? They'll kill the weakers ones first."
	Etna: 	"Cattle. She called us cattle. Thought we lacked any drive or ambition."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace didn't really know what to think with these factions seemingly springing up to become this large. Though she'll nod with Act considering that seemed to tie up a few questions.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Blood don't care. I don't know if they think this isn't real. Or if they just don't care about this kind of life. But they just kill. Pleasure, sport, or whatever. They're murderers, the lot of them. Mass murderers just looking for that next kill."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"I haven't met a Blood that cares if they die. That values their well-being. Only that they tell someone about me or mine before they die. Just so another Blood could set their sights on me and increase their kill count or something."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"For the most part, people are just trying to survive. Someone more reasonably than others. Then you have those assholes. A blight on this new world."
	Actinidia: 	"Out goals skew closest to Order, I believe. Though if there are any murderous children, I treat them as such. The last we met was trying to be a pokemon trainer it looked like, just from the game. And his lair was filled with the corpses of pokemon he 'battled'. To stop that kind of thing in the future, I was hoping to open a pokemon center or a pokemon gym. Something from the games, that communicates 'good guy' or 'authority figure'. I have no idea if this will work."
	Actinidia: 	test
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	hi
	Grace Leonhardt: 	we see you
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"It could work. Or just promote more mindless murder. You might want to check with Death Incarnate."
	Mila: 	"She means the fire monkey..."
	Etna: 	"Doctor Death?"
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"He's trying to own the subway system. There's a ton of horrible, terrible Pokemon down there. And I warned him that Blood might even be based down there."
	Actinidia: 	"Interesting."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"He didn't care though. Said 'if it aint' safe, I'll make it safe.' I wished him the best."
	Etna: 	"Sounds like him."
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia turned to her allies, "Do you want to go see how he is doing next? Sounds like a good, not morally complex adventure. I think some of us could use that."
	Etna: 	"Your optimism in the face of the world astounds me. But before anything, we need to finish our food run."
	Actinidia: 	"Of course."
	Mila: 	"Uhm, we don't want to keep you here or anything. You're...mostly nice people." Mila fidgeted some before lifting her ears high, "Did you...uhm...meet someone named Frank?"
Avara: 	did we?
DNA: 	I have this weird feeling we did. Let me check.
	Actinidia: 	((Left my notebook at home, can't look up names.))
Avara: 	roll to remember?
DNA: 	I'm getting hits
DNA: 	WAIT
	Mila: 	"He was lucky, I remember. Was with his girlfriend when everything happened and they were both the same species."
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	And then Mars spoke the first line he said all day. "...the tiny yellow gnat?" He wasn't expecting that.
DNA: 	I didn't open the file. I just got a memory jog.
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	One-Eyed King Pangoro suddenly lumbered over toward the group, shoving No-Eyed Lopunny aside as he did so.
	Actinidia: 	"Didn't we rescue their eggs?"
* Etna looks at Pangoro.
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	"My brother. You met him where?"
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace looks at the pangoro, droping into her sweeper stance, expecting something, but she won't make the first move.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	In his head, Mars thought only one thing. 'Oh my god.' And then, outwardly, "I think it was this street. If not this one, then a street a LOT like this one."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 sighed and took a step back from Pangoro.
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	One-Eyed King Pangoro's bottom lip quivered, "Is he alive? He's alright, ain't he?"
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Uh, to elaborate, we can't really tell them apart from one another unless they open their mouths. Frank was part of a group of six Cutiefly. We found four corpses along this road. But we haven't heard from Frank in some time."
	Actinidia: 	((is the tree we hid the cutiefly around here?))
Narrator: (( It is. ))
	Etna: 	"Did you check the trees?"
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	"The trees? Oh crap, right. If this was the street..."
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	"Everywhere around the killzone." One-Eyed King Pangoro said confidently, "Under every car. Every window. All the buildings. The tree's, the alleys, the sewer grates, the..."
	Etna: 	"The trees, the cars. If we left someone alive passing through here, we put them in places like that so they weren't eaten in their sleep."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"...Sire? You're getting emotional. Please, let your charges handle the diplomacy..."
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	"...the...the other corpses. Fresh. The blood, the debris, the rocks, the..."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Sire! You trust us. Let us handle it."
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia checks under the leaves they had placed, if she can locate them.
One-Eyed King Pangoro: (( Furthest northwest tree. Perception Search to check the area. ))
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace will help as well, as she's starting to internally scream.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	5+1+3+0=9
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Mars doesn't move, but because he wants to keep eye contact with the Pangoro, out of respect.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	He'll glance out of the corner of his eye, though, see if he can see at least one of them from where he's standing.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Seeing 1+3+5+3=12
	Etna: 	Etna remains still as well, watching the Pangoro carefully.
	Actinidia: 	Searchin 1+3+3+1=8 (STUNT! 1 Stunt Point)
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	One-Eyed King Pangoro grits his teeth before walking over to No-Eyed Lopunny. She's leaned against the car and seems emotionally hurt by the sudden shove. One-Eyed King Pangoro pats her shoulder gently and begins to comfort her, apologizing.
	Etna: 	Etna shifts her gaze to Lopunny 2.
Narrator whispers: You don't see anything of the sort.
	Etna: 	"The ones who did the hiding are searching now. If he wasn't in the open, and he wasn't hidden, then we won't know. But the cutiefly gang fought us here."
	Etna: 	"Many gangs fought us here."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Would you have killed them? I wouldn't blame you if you had but..." No-Eyed Lopunny 2 turns to Pangoro briefly, "...I know what it's like to lose someone you love."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace will scoot her way back over to Mars and quietly speaks to him. "Hey, you have a good sense of smell right? can you see if you smell anything identifiable about where we stashed the two...?"
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Mars looks back to Grace. "I'll try. I kinda remember what the scent would be like..."
	Etna: 	"We try to keep our kills few and far between. But for a while, my apprentice didn't understand that, or why. She's not with us right now, but she killed more than any of us. More than all of us combined, I'm sure."
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	I SMELL. 4+4+1+7=16 (STUNT! 4 Stunt Points)
	Actinidia: 	"I don't think we ever found out why they were attacking us either. They were just really, really into it."
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Speedy Search, and Resources at Hand (Seeing)
	Etna: 	"So it's entirely possible."
Narrator: 	Are you moving to the tree to do this, DNA?
Narrator: 	You will suffer a penalty for remaining where you are.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Ah. Yeah, I am.
	Actinidia: 	other tree, northwest
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	right, that one
Narrator whispers: One of the Cutiefly was female, the other was male. You can give a Cunning test to see if you remember anything about them. There's no blood or anything here. And their scent has a faint trail into the air from here heading toward the Safeway from here.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	5+5+5+1=16
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	well then
Avara: 	FIVE
Avara: 	FIVE DOLLAR
Avara: 	FIVE DOLLAR FOOT LONG
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Dammit I thought I suppressed that commercial forever
Avara: 	XD
Narrator whispers: One of the Cutiefly you recall being called Janos. Female. The other you don't remember. You're sure it wasn't Frank though, but it was definitely male.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	"...No, this...this isn't Frank..."
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	"And the other survivor was female."
Narrator whispers: Are you saying this aloud enough for people to hear?
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	I'm saying it at normal speaking volume
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	I don't know if the others can hear me, but I'm speaking it normally.
Narrator: 	People can hear you if you aren't hiding anything.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Fine by me.
	Etna: 	"Then yeah. He's probably among the dead."
	Actinidia: 	"I'm sorry for your loss."
	Etna: 	"If he was the especially noisy one, he nearly got away before my apprentice hit him and he fell. The ground would've been what killed him."
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	One-Eyed King Pangoro growled and dropped down to a single knee. His back toward Etna and Actinidia.
One-Eyed King Pangoro whispers: You can see him though. His face contorting between emotions. Grimacing in hurt shifting to shock flashing to anger, his eyes glazed over and his fur damp around the eyes. His muscles flexing and his fists clenching.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Mila."
	Etna: 	"If you end up seeking revenge, come for me. I'll face you down alone, but Ura didn't know any better. She was born the day after the Change, and only recently learned WHY not to kill. As her teacher, her actions are my responsibility."
	Mila: 	"R-Right." Mila trots down to the south to Pangoro and hugs him from behind, "Sire. Sire, come on. Two are still alive. We should seek them out, keep the death toll low."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace was caught completely off guard by Etna's follow up words. Grace was in a bit of a panic though she really didn't know what she was supposed to do.
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	"Etna, no...... This isn't going to help. You're no help to anyone still around in the world, alive or dead. That goes for both sides."
	Etna: 	"I'm not planning to die. I'll fight, if a fight is demanded. I simply want whatever results to end with me."
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	"What's the point, Mila? My brother isn't among them." One-Eyed King Pangoro grit his teeth audibly, "Hnng...killed, by an inhuman."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Better than blood. You've seen what they do. These people were defending themselves."
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	"How convenient."
	Mila: 	"Sire, I've seen them. I know them to be truthful. They could have just said Frank was among the living. They told you the truth, not to torture you. But because you deserved to know."
	Mila: 	Mila turns slowly to Actinidia and Etna, "Right?"
	Etna: 	"I told the truth because it should be known. And lying would only give you false hope, to crush you with later."
	Actinidia: 	"Of course. And we're still here because we care. I know it seems wrong for someone who... ended the life of someone close to you to stay and try to console you. It's... something we've had to do more than I like, since so many groups attack on sight and don't ask questions. I wish there was a way we could have talked out of it, for everyone's sake."
	One-Eyed King Pangoro: 	One-Eyed King Pangoro grows silent. He visibly relaxes but doesn't speak anymore on the subject.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 nods, "Well, sire accepts it at least." No-Eyed Lopunny 2 sighs, "We should probably retire for the evening." No-Eyed Lopunny 2 motions northeast, "We're at the NASM. It's our little hub. Come visit us if you want." No-Eyed Lopunny 2 turns, "Sire would probably be more talkable and accepting later too. Though I think it's okay if he isn't."
* Pierce Mars Oswell nods, and goes to collect the wagon.
	Etna: 	"Alright. I've already told you where to find us, if you need to."
	Actinidia: 	"It is okay if we are never forgiven. But we will try to find you when we have the chance. If a green snake named Setszas comes looking around, he's my son. Out on an exploration mission, I'm so proud."
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	"Well, you all are more independent. We follow sire. Should he decide to visit you, we'll follow." No-Eyed Lopunny 2 shrugs, "The door swings both ways, y'know."
* Etna nods.
	Etna: 	"Good luck, to all of you."
* Etna is ready to leave.
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia is ready to leave as well.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace just gives a simple, and a touch mornful wave, her expression matching.
	No-Eyed Lopunny 2: 	No-Eyed Lopunny 2 moves south and gently pats, Pangoro, "C'mon sire. Let's go home..."
* Pierce Mars Oswell just...nods. He can't say anything else right now.
Narrator: 	Whelp, the group will leave and head northeast. You guys I'm assuming will be heading west? Or did you want to stick around here for a moment
Avara: 	walking home-ward
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Homward, because if grace lingers, she's gonna be thinking about the king bear more and that's just not healthy to stack ontop of learning there are psudo religious sects and one of them tried to murder and/or eat them earlier.
Avara: 	seek seek less seek more blood
Narrator: 	THE SOURCE
Actinidia is disconnected.
Narrator: 	There are no more encounters. You'll arrive at home at roughly 12:25 PM.
Avara: 	yay~
Narrator: 	Slen's Shop will be finished. Slen himself is working on furnishing it.
Actinidia has connected.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Noice
	Actinidia: 	yo
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	Mars walks in with the supplies and notices Slen is making a place for himself. He'll put away all of the food and such first before going to talk to him, though.
* Etna will also focus on storing foodstuffs first, then go back to say hi.
	Actinidia: 	what did I miss? I last got confirmation about heading back
Avara: 	the merchant's shop is set up. he's furnishing.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace will park the cart near the entrance to the kitchens, unload, and make her way after Mars to check out the merchant's set up.
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia helps with food, as she's also carrying bunches of things
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	(At this point, this means Etna reclaims her inventory off me.)
Narrator: 	Yay!
Avara: 	huzzah~
Avara: 	etna gets to offload 385 pounds of meat, and reclaim her inventory.
Narrator: 	Any particular visits?
DNA: 	Other than Slen, not yet
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia checks on her breeding corner to see if there has been any activity.
Narrator: 	Slen is furnishing. He has obtained rather interesting furnishings.
	Etna: 	Etna looks at the furnishings.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace is definitely going to go the long way around the breeding corner, to check out the furnishings.
Narrator: 	The breeding corner has been spruced up. Currently, it's in use for safe breeding practices and explaining egg groups. This is led by Alvarex.
* Pierce Mars Oswell will also be looking at Slen's furnishings.
Narrator: 	There are currently no eggs waiting to hatch.
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia smiles at this but doesn't interrupt. She goes to find Mars, which also means finding Slen.
DNA: 	I GUESS WE'RE ALL IN ONE PLACE
Narrator: 	Slen has clean, intact comfortable furnishings. He had lounge chairs, double-beds, ottomons, wodden end tables and a lamp.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"Where did you get all of these?"
	Slen: 	Slen jumps when Grace speaks and carefully places his lamp before responding, "Stores. Some of the storage places had good structure and didn't take significant damage."
	Slen: 	"I mean, it did, of course. Take damage. But not enough to do harm to their inventory."
	Etna: 	"Nice."
	Slen: 	Slen smiles, "I'm almost set up here. I'll be ready to trade with your group soon."
	Actinidia: 	"We've found out about some orders forming out there. Seekers of Blood, Seekers of Order and Seekers of Truth. We should inform everyone of these when we get the chance."
	Slen: 	"How was the outing?
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace will nod her head. "Fair enough! Furnature's good as any to replace damaged things around here. And uh... yeah we're not hating on the factions... well besides the bloods. We're just curious if you know of them."
	Actinidia: 	"We ran into the seekers of blood first. I'll spare the gruesome details. But we decided to retire early after seeing their taste in interior decoration."
	Etna: 	"We found out more of the developing factions, and got a lot of foodstuff."
	Slen: 	"That sounds rather...crusader. I think this is a good idea."
	Slen: 	"Ah, no. I've never heard of them. I did trade, sure, but I suppose people either don't like that sort of political conversation topics or just assumed I already knew."
	Slen: 	"My wife and kids are the ones who really do the exploring. They might know. They'd be the ones encountering these people, after all."
	Actinidia: 	"With how fast things develop, I wouldn't be surprised if they all sprung up yesterday and you were busy building your shop."
	Slen: 	"Could've! I mean, this place is a 24 hour operation, right? It's not like the wheels aren't turning at night. For people like us who sleep for a third of the day that's ample time for changes."
	Actinidia: 	"Indeed. From what we gathered, bloods just want to kill. Order wants to protect children. Truth wants to find out what happened and 'fix' it."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"Well suffice to say, they need to be careful around the... blood people. They're... horrid. And you can take a guess with their 'seeking for blood' and all..." She'll say sounding a touch sick at the memory.
	Slen: 	"I'll tell my family to be extra careful in their scrounging then. You should too." Slen says looking at Actinidia, "Your son's out there right now."
DNA: 	(Was anyone else around when Setszas asked for the 2-day leave?)
	Actinidia: 	"I know, but I trust him to make smart moves. We only ended up fighting because we wanted resources and didn't leave at the first sign of obvious danger."
	Actinidia: 	(Grace at least, but I think everyone was)
Slen: (( Etna might NOT have been, but everyone else was. ))
DNA: 	Oh, I saw it. Everyone was there.
	Actinidia: 	"Until he comes back, I'll have a hard time finding him. But once he's back I will share what I've learned."
DNA: 	Grace left shortly after it was said.
	Slen: 	"We should make everyone aware of these people. And be aware of them when people are either approaching WH or when out in about DC. Is there an easy way to tell them apart?"
* Etna will relay everything from the experiences with the Seekers of Blood and the Seekers of Order.
Avara: 	well, demi-Seekers of Order.
	Actinidia: 	"We only met the bloods in person, and got second hand information from some others we met on the road. The bloods are rather true to their name. Blood is everywhere, they were cultish and violent."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"Well... they're rather vocal about their... desires. But generally they won't really consider most decent folk worth anything in their eyes."
	Actinidia: 	"Oh, and they attack all children they see. Regardless of whether or not they think they can win."
	Slen: 	Slen raises a tongue, "...? Eggs or human children?"
	Actinidia: 	"Human children."
	Slen: 	Slen sighs heavily, "...They can't be animals then. I haven't met any pre-animal Pokemon who actively targeted children."
	Actinidia: 	"It sounded like all groups were human originally, but quickly gathered pokemon looking for direction."
	Actinidia: 	"I cannot verfiy that part, though. It sound plausible enough.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"Never the less, an ABP... well... spreading the word on avoiding them is a good idea."
	Slen: 	"Well, I'm gonna be honest here. My shop is here. This is your property." Slen pats himself, "I look intimidating but Im a Merchant by trade. But I'm here so, WH is in my best interest and I'll defend this place and your people as if it were my own. I'd like to think it is. That I got a place here. And hopefully my family will too when they return."
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia smiled and nodded.
	Slen: 	"So, I ask this up front: Your people don't strike me as political and most definitely not bloodthirsty devourer of children. Are there anything to be done about these groups?"
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"Well, apparently Order isn't going to be an issue, Truth shouldn't be either unless they're overtly coming after us.. and well... blood's going to be fought off."
	Pierce Mars Oswell: 	"I want to say finding Order and establishing a tie with them may be a good idea. We could do the same with Truth but I have a feeling they won't be easily convinced. ...Blood refuses to be reasoned with, and as much as I'd rather this not be the case, I think they need to be wiped out."
Actinidia is disconnected.
	Etna: 	"We owe none of these groups anything. We'll reach out to them personally to get a feel for them, but we won't drag the White House group into following or fighting any of them. If they bring a fight to us, well be on the front lines stopping them from hurting anyone to the best of our ability. Order wants to protect children, at all costs... they might come to us for food, bartering is a good idea. Truth won't want anything to do with us unless they can read the old documents. We can just hand those over."
	Etna: 	"Seekers of Blood, however, are enemies. Because they'll want to kill us all."
Actinidia has connected.
Actinidia: 	"Seekers of Order will probably be our closest friends. Truth... we don't have any conflict or shared interests with. Some of us are former humans, and might want things to return to the way things were, but as our community grows, we can't count on everyone living here to want to transform back into an unitelligent animal."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"Yeah, we're trying to be independant, but try to have a cease fire with the first two, and a shoo off for Blood."
	Etna: 	"If people want to join up with one of the factions, we won't stop them. But we're not any of them ourselves."
	Etna: 	"The safety and wellbeing of those who live under our domain is our primary concern. Including your family, when they come here. Because yes, I think of you and yours as part of the group."
	Actinidia: 	"Sounds like we're roughly in agreement."
	Slen: 	"Okay, I think I got it. You'll probably want someone here to be a spokesperson when you guys aren't around."
	Slen: 	"You get things done. It's incredible. Comforting and inspiring. But that does leave you in absence often. I don't think I should be that person. I don't know your ways well enough yet and I don't want my mercantile mindset to get in the way of anything."
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"That's... actually a good point. We do need someone to be the base's acting head when we're doing scavaging or scouting. Maybe one of your sons act?"
	Grace Leonhardt: 	"or one of the snakes that's been here for a while?"
	Actinidia: 	"I thought of my sons first, but I feel like they both have their own goals that might take them from here. Not to mention Setszas is a good leader but not very social, and Alvarex is very social but I'm not sure how strong of a leader he is yet. Alvarex is maturing very quickly though, so he has potential."
	Etna: 	"Hraesvelgr, the father dunsparce, is the one most of the others are comfortable with. And he seems to be pretty happy with us. We should see how he feels about things."
	Actinidia: 	"Good idea."
	Actinidia: 	((I'm starting to get sleepy. Take a break here?))
Narrator: 	Hehehe.
Avara: 	it's the usual end-o-clock
Narrator: 	We can.
Avara: 	i think we're gonna DING~
Narrator: 	If you guys have a goal in mind for exploration or meeting, let me know.
Narrator: 	I would LIKE to map new locations, it's just hard to with the lack of formal direction (also destroyed cities are not easy to do).
	Grace Leonhardt: 	that's fair.
Narrator: 	Like, I know the idea of visiting the subway system was tossed into the air. So, if you guys know and agree on a thing to do or place to visit, hit me up. The sooner the better so I can map the locations early.
Narrator: 	No pressure if you guys don't. I can do last minute slapmaps like I have been.
Avara: 	*hugs*
Avara: 	i had a lot of fun today.
Narrator: 	I'm glad.
Grace: 	Second!
	Actinidia: 	me too
Narrator: 	I got teary eyed,
Narrator: 	FUnny enough, to one of Actinidia's recent statements.
Narrator: 	About the noticeable personality traits of her children.
DNA: 	Huh, how interesting.
Avara: 	:3
DNA: 	...Welp, now I know who Frank's brother is and that he kinda wants revenge. Good to know.
Avara: 	may or may not, yeah
Narrator: 	Of course he does.
Avara: 	but that grass gang tho
Grace: 	Ye. That and we might have to look out for radio towers that are intact.
	Actinidia: 	Actinidia loves her children~
Avara: 	what is their deal
Narrator: 	World-Building.
Narrator: 	I hope I'm doing a good job with it.
Avara: 	i'm very interested in the setting, yeah
	Actinidia: 	Yep
Avara: 	lots of stuff to pick up and investigate
Narrator: 	But I'm glad things are coming together for you guys and that you've taken interest in things.
DNA: 	Mm, I definitely have my eyes on the game now. It suddenly got...something that requires my active attention.
DNA: 	-got +became
Narrator: 	One-eyed King?
	Actinidia: 	Large factions with goals.
Grace: 	I've digged this for a long while now, it's still refereshing to play the part of the pokemon instead, and as well as playing a bit more shakey character instead of a complete murder hobo for me.
Narrator: 	Grace. You've brought a lot to the table. I'm very happy you decided to join our game sessions.
DNA: 	That's one of the reasons, yes. The Seekers of BLood are the other.
Avara: 	seek seek less
Narrator: 	Your character is full of life and personality and you have noticeable impact on things. In combat, exploration and role-play.
Narrator: 	Which, I have a lot of years of GMing under my belt. And the players you with are a common established group for my games. So, that says a lot.
Grace: 	Wait I have? Wow, that's... super flattering. I don't know what to say. ^///^;
Narrator: 	Thank you for joining us. And it means a lot to me that you're enjoying yourself and the story.
DNA: 	Rob and Ava have been in most of Kaorin's games. I have been in a few, though I've often been a player alongside those two - and when I'm not, I'm usually around talking to Kaorin about other game stuff and ideas.
Narrator: 	I'mma drop the XP before I forget.
Narrator: 	500 XP.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace Leonhardt gains 0 experience points.
Narrator: 	We need to fix your XP bar, Grace.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Yeah that's probably a good idea.
DNA: 	We now have 7850 total EXP. We are now level 4. We have 3150 EXP until we hit the next level.
Narrator: 	I'll wait for DNA to announce the current XP and....eyah
Narrator: 	Gimme a sec to edit your token, Grace.
DNA: 	11000
Avara: 	DING~
Actinidia is disconnected.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace Leonhardt loses 0 experience points.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace Leonhardt gains -3150 experience points.
Avara: 	just one more level until we evolve.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Grace Leonhardt loses 0 experience points.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	There we go.
	Grace Leonhardt: 	Your XP bar is fixed.
Grace: 	Danke!
Avara: 	bye-biiii~
Avara is disconnected.
Grace is disconnected.
You have disconnected.
