  1. Aug 02 12:15:19 <Aori_Radidjiu> After a long, grueling fight with MARK FLIX, he's gone over and fetched his ERUPTION badges, which look like a volcano with a FIST launching out of it. Seriously. He meets up with you all in the entryway to his gym, with the badges in hand. "You get the badges. Money too. You can have eggs or knuckles or headbands or a burn orb or a Fire Plate or more money or VMs for Sunny Day,
  2. Aug 02 12:15:20 <Aori_Radidjiu> Flame Charge, or Fire Punch, pick two." The initial amount of money he gives is 4000 PY (to each one of you), you can opt to double your money to 8000 PY if you pick the money.
  3. Aug 02 12:16:26 <Aori_Radidjiu> "And since you're family..." He turns to Mel. "Free hot spring passes. 20 of them. One per person."
  4. Aug 02 12:17:24 <Melons> "Is the medical attention free too?"
  5. Aug 02 12:17:35 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Yes."
  6. Aug 02 12:18:06 * Knox seems almost amused that this guy and Melanie could possibly be related, even if it's by marriage. Anyway, he's thinking on his reward.
  7. Aug 02 12:18:15 <Lesieli> "Few words, but lots of prizes. I kinda like this gym~"
  8. Aug 02 12:19:26 <Melons> Melanie puffs on her inhaler. "...before I choose, does Kaane actually nest at the top of the mountain?"
  9. Aug 02 12:21:27 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mitsuko chimes in about that. "That's what all the spiritual people say, although I've never seen him! He's selective about his audiences or something."
  10. Aug 02 12:21:34 <Mayuri> "... can we limit ourselves to one god caught per lifetime?"
  11. Aug 02 12:22:03 <Melons> "I even have a sacrifice volunteering! How nice..."
  12. Aug 02 12:22:10 <Mackenzie> "Headbands. Elaborate."
  13. Aug 02 12:22:36 <Knox> "I feel like I'm pushing it wearing -this- headband."
  14. Aug 02 12:24:49 <Aori_Radidjiu> The BURNING FOCUS headband gives Twisted Power, Fire Punch, and Lava Plume.
  15. Aug 02 12:25:02 <Knox> a-aaah
  16. Aug 02 12:25:15 <Melons> Can either the headband or knuckles work as a held item?
  17. Aug 02 12:25:40 <Aori_Radidjiu> Headband is human only, but the knuckles...
  18. Aug 02 12:28:45 <Aori_Radidjiu> HELLFIRE FIST, Fire Type Booster, +1 Default Atk CS, and Flame body
  19. Aug 02 12:30:06 <Melons> "...can we see the eggs?"
  20. Aug 02 12:30:17 <Aori_Radidjiu> EGGS
  21. Aug 02 12:30:32 <Mayuri> "... don't we already have an egg on the ship?" ^.^;
  22. Aug 02 12:31:14 <Melons> Mel idly wonders if she should have left Kei on the ship to protect his babby.
  23. Aug 02 12:32:06 <Aori_Radidjiu> There's an orange egg with yellow spots, a white on top orange on bottom egg with a black jagged stripe between the two, and a pinkish egg with orange spots
  24. Aug 02 12:32:38 <Melons> "...hey Lesieli, any thoughts on their identities?"
  25. Aug 02 12:32:39 * Mayuri attempts to detect fairy or normal? Does that even work on eggs?
  26. Aug 02 12:33:59 <Lesieli> "Well, I'm no egg specialist, but I can try?"
  27. Aug 02 12:34:07 <Lesieli> 6d6+6 PokeEdu?
  28. Aug 02 12:34:07 <DiceMaid-9001> Lesieli, PokeEdu?: 29 [6d6=3,6,5,5,2,2]
  29. Aug 02 12:34:19 <Lesieli> "Guessing they're all fire types"
  30. Aug 02 12:34:26 <Melons> "Don't make me hit you."
  31. Aug 02 12:34:33 <Knox> "Brilliant deduction."
  32. Aug 02 12:34:48 <Aori_Radidjiu> Lesieli, you get the feeling that the pink one is a FIGHTING type
  33. Aug 02 12:34:52 <Aori_Radidjiu> No fairy or normal
  34. Aug 02 12:35:11 <Aori_Radidjiu> And the other two are fire types
  35. Aug 02 12:36:13 <Lesieli> "Yeah, types are the best I can do. Good chance they're related to what we fought though, maybe?"
  36. Aug 02 12:36:19 <Knox> "Pick two? Alright, I'll take a headband and that egg." he points to the one with yellow spots."
  37. Aug 02 12:36:25 <Aori_Radidjiu> the white black and orange one is mixed with some other type, whereas the other two don't have a secondary type (at least, not in their base form)
  38. Aug 02 12:36:37 <Melons> "One of the yellow spotted ones for me too..."
  39. Aug 02 12:37:19 <Aori_Radidjiu> Two orange with yellow spots eggs handed out~
  40. Aug 02 12:37:38 <Melons> (So it is pick two?)
  41. Aug 02 12:37:49 <Aori_Radidjiu> Pick two rewards
  42. Aug 02 12:38:55 <Aori_Radidjiu> You could take a second egg if you wanted to, of course~
  43. Aug 02 12:39:34 <Melons> "Can I take a favor as my second?"
  44. Aug 02 12:39:48 <Aori_Radidjiu> "What kind?"
  45. Aug 02 12:40:02 <Melons> "Escort to the top of the mountain some time."
  46. Aug 02 12:40:10 * Mayuri pokes the knuckles. Do these even come in Minccino sizes?
  47. Aug 02 12:40:19 <Aori_Radidjiu> Yes, they can be used by Pokemon
  48. Aug 02 12:44:34 <Aori_Radidjiu> "That wouldn't be a favor, I go up there all the time as part of my exercise regimen."
  49. Aug 02 12:45:04 <Melons> "...oh. Fire Punch then, please."
  50. Aug 02 12:45:16 <Aori_Radidjiu> "You got it."
  51. Aug 02 12:48:23 <Mackenzie> "Can I take money twice? I'm just not sure..."
  52. Aug 02 12:48:42 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Nope."
  53. Aug 02 12:50:28 <Mackenzie> "Money and Flame Charge, then."
  54. Aug 02 12:50:43 <Aori_Radidjiu> "All right." He forks 'em over.
  55. Aug 02 12:50:45 <Melons> "Oh, and unrelated to the rewards, I have on demand seeing as how you fucking broke me: a girl is probably going to challenge you later, she isn't really a fighter herself. If I see any injuries on her, I'm breaking your face."
  56. Aug 02 12:50:50 <Melons> *one
  57. Aug 02 12:51:25 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I'm usually more lenient on one on one challengers."
  58. Aug 02 12:51:27 <Mayuri> "... would you be able to, like, make those knuckles pretty or something?"
  59. Aug 02 12:51:48 <Aori_Radidjiu> He rolls his eyes. "Nothing stopping you from putting glitter on them."
  60. Aug 02 12:52:34 <Mayuri> "I'm still a coordinator, you know." :T
  61. Aug 02 12:53:20 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I don't make these myself, I have a friend over in Whelk who does them. If you want them custom-made to be all artsy, you can ask him."
  62. Aug 02 12:54:35 <Melons> "Fist of the Sparkly Star. Heh...ow...Mitsuko can you help me over to the hot springs? Anyone else can come too since nepotism is pretty nice...oh and I want to check on my eggy."
  63. Aug 02 12:55:29 <Melons> 4d6+4 Focus to shift the bones to cover herself a bit more modestly
  64. Aug 02 12:55:31 <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Focus to shift the bones to cover herself a bit more modestly: 15 [4d6=2,1,2,6]
  65. Aug 02 12:57:46 <Mackenzie> "So who is fair game for one of those passes? I know someone probably still holed up on the ship who could take a load off." He then mumbles, "I could use some relaxation instead of stressing out all the damn time, myself." under his breath.
  66. Aug 02 12:58:03 <Melons> "Whoever the fuck you want, I guess."
  67. Aug 02 12:58:14 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Give them to your friends."
  68. Aug 02 12:59:07 <Knox> "Fair enough, should cover the crew."
  69. Aug 02 12:59:37 * Mackenzie sends a text to Jennifer. 'Something important's come up, meet me at the gym.'
  70. Aug 02 13:00:56 <Knox> "About how long do you guess these eggs have? I might be interested in breeder services or something."
  71. Aug 02 13:01:10 <Knox> "Not a point to it if we leave before they're due, though."
  72. Aug 02 13:01:48 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Should be due soon, I'd think, and the breeders know how to put them in conditions to make them hatch faster."
  73. Aug 02 13:01:54 <Aori_Radidjiu> Speaking of Breeders, Mel gets a text
  74. Aug 02 13:01:55 <Knox> "Guess I could leave an egg and a pokeball and have it sent to my PC box... either way."
  75. Aug 02 13:02:23 <Melons> "Mmmm?" Melanie flips it open.
  76. Aug 02 13:02:33 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Egg about to hatch, hurry over when you can!"
  77. Aug 02 13:02:54 <Mayuri> "Well... knuckles and some money, I guess~ I'll have to go ask Mel about that VM."
  78. Aug 02 13:03:02 <Melons> "...GAH! EGGY!" Melanie throws herself clumsily out the door, whining with every step.
  79. Aug 02 13:03:39 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mel opens the door to see Shyla and Pierce there. "Hey." Shyla awkwardly looks away as she addresses you.
  80. Aug 02 13:04:34 <Melons> "COMEWITHMEEGG'SHATCHINGCOMEON!" Melanie grabs Shyla by the arm as she hauls ass to her aunt.
  81. Aug 02 13:04:44 <Knox> "...alright, guess I'm going with them to drop this off."
  82. Aug 02 13:05:10 <Aori_Radidjiu> Shyla squeals a little at being taken but doesn't resist, Pierce following after
  83. Aug 02 13:05:14 <Knox> "That woman, sometimes..." he snorts.
  84. Aug 02 13:05:46 * Knox follows, amused. "This taught me one thing, though. Need to work on my own training regimen. I've been too slack on myself."
  85. Aug 02 13:06:10 <Lesieli> "Yeah, I - I think I'll actually take the fighting egg, and cash for breeding services. And it looks like we're heading over there anyways?"
  86. Aug 02 13:06:14 * Mackenzie shrugs and follows them along, sending another text. 'Never mind, we're coming to the ship momentarily.'
  87. Aug 02 13:06:28 <Aori_Radidjiu> Eggs at the hot springs, fyi Mack
  88. Aug 02 13:06:45 <Mackenzie> (I know.)
  89. Aug 02 13:07:39 <Mayuri> "So... uhm... where'd Mel run off to"
  90. Aug 02 13:07:49 <Aori_Radidjiu> running over to the hot spring, you pass by Mirai, who waves, and Jennifer, who curiously watches you run off with Shyla and Pierce in tow
  91. Aug 02 13:08:45 <Mackenzie> 2d6+1 notice Jennifer is here as he follows them.
  92. Aug 02 13:08:46 <DiceMaid-9001> Mackenzie, notice Jennifer is here as he follows them.: 12 [2d6=5,6]
  93. Aug 02 13:08:49 <Melons> 6d6+3 Acrobatics to not trip and crash like a fucking Rhydon from the guilty awkwardness of seeing Mirai
  94. Aug 02 13:08:50 <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Acrobatics to not trip and crash like a fucking Rhydon from the guilty awkwardness of seeing Mirai: 27 [6d6=2,2,6,5,5,4]
  95. Aug 02 13:09:12 * Mayuri guesses she follows after Knox and co too!
  96. Aug 02 13:11:03 * Mackenzie follows along, til he notices Jennifer. "Oh! Hello Jennifer. Um, are you busy? I wanted your help with something."
  97. Aug 02 13:11:25 <Aori_Radidjiu> It doesn't take long for Mel to get to the Hot Springs nad run in on the Breeder area, Momoka giving you a "Welcome~" as you come in. The breeder dude is sitting near the egg in an incubator, the egg vigorously shaking. He hits a button for th elid on the incubator to come off. "Hey."
  98. Aug 02 13:13:21 <Melons> Melanie drops her bony ass (geddit) down in front of the incubator, leaning soooooooo close to it with a wide grin and her hands clutched around an old luxury ball. Time for it to finally be used!
  99. Aug 02 13:14:36 <Aori_Radidjiu> Crack.
  100. Aug 02 13:14:48 <Aori_Radidjiu> Shyla and Pierce sit themselves down to watch as well.
  101. Aug 02 13:15:09 * Knox followed Mel, of course, so he strolls on in behind them and leans on the wall.
  102. Aug 02 13:15:25 * Mackenzie hopefully drags Jennifer along in time to see as well.
  103. Aug 02 13:16:09 <Melons> Ohgodit'scrackingohgodIcanhearmyheartbeatingohgodIbettheyallthinkI'mcrazy.
  104. Aug 02 13:18:58 <Aori_Radidjiu> CRACKCRACK
  105. Aug 02 13:19:13 <Aori_Radidjiu> Jennifer shrugs. "Not busy. Take me wherever."
  106. Aug 02 13:19:15 <Melons> (Pls Aori, this is supposed to be IC)
  107. Aug 02 13:19:48 <Aori_Radidjiu> BREAK, and...
  108. Aug 02 13:19:53 <Melons> Melanie slowly begins remembering the fair amount of pain she's in w- OH MY GOD IT'S HAPPENING.
  109. Aug 02 13:19:57 <Aori_Radidjiu> The Totodile jumps out and tackles Melanie
  110. Aug 02 13:20:25 <Aori_Radidjiu> It starts making some growling noises and gnawing on her
  111. Aug 02 13:20:43 <Melons> "ABE!" She kind of squiddles his name out while hugging him. Ow.
  112. Aug 02 13:22:51 <Melons> She moves him to be gnawing on bone instead and leans over to look at her aunt with a smile. "So...uh...what do I owe you?" Ignoring the breeder guy completely.
  113. Aug 02 13:23:50 * Mayuri .. uhm... Mawiles don't gnaw like that, do they?
  114. Aug 02 13:24:10 <Mayuri> "When'd you get an egg?" ^^;
  115. Aug 02 13:24:18 <Aori_Radidjiu> Totally do when they're little. They get over it as they mature
  116. Aug 02 13:24:59 <Melons> "Back in Ark, while you and the big strong manly men were trying to be cute."
  117. Aug 02 13:25:16 <Knox> "Don't remind me."
  118. Aug 02 13:25:44 <Mackenzie> "He's adorable when he's bashful."
  119. Aug 02 13:26:14 <Knox> "Bashful? I can give you a bashing if you want."
  120. Aug 02 13:26:55 <Aori_Radidjiu> Momoka shrugs. "First one's on me. Additional hatching services will be 3k PY each."
  121. Aug 02 13:26:58 <Mayuri> "Mmmm~ Knox's officially invited to a smart contest in Hermit... erm... after he finishes his buisness.."
  122. Aug 02 13:27:21 * Knox grimaces.
  123. Aug 02 13:28:03 <Melons> "Oh...uh...thanks...I do have another egg actually...that...my apparent uncle just gave me..." Melanie pops Abe in the luxury ball and holds out the second egg along with some money.
  124. Aug 02 13:28:40 <Aori_Radidjiu> The Breeder looks it over. "Oh, a Charmander egg, huh? Do you want anything specific for it?"
  125. Aug 02 13:30:47 <Melons> "Um...hm...do you have any fancy pricey options or pretty much same as you just did for this little guy?" She lets the claimed Abe back out to gnaw on her boners some more.
  126. Aug 02 13:30:47 <Knox> "While I'm here, I want the same." he says, putting his own egg carefully down nearby. "What do you offer for 3k?"
  127. Aug 02 13:31:55 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Well, for 3k we can adjust its nature, influence its moves, and make it a little stronger..."
  128. Aug 02 13:32:01 <Lesieli> "Same here," holding up her own egg, "and there may be another to bring in later? Not sure on that yet"
  129. Aug 02 13:32:04 <Mayuri> "Isn't there a Mawile on the ship too?" ^^;
  130. Aug 02 13:32:25 <Mayuri> "I'm aiming for the grand contest thing... And, well, I have to win some Cool and Tough contests~"
  131. Aug 02 13:32:27 <Knox> "Besides Fangs, there's whatever in the egg that popped out."
  132. Aug 02 13:32:36 <Knox> *whatever's
  133. Aug 02 13:32:50 <Aori_Radidjiu> "For 5k more we can induce something unusual, and for just 2k more you can get it strange natures, which is included with the unusual bit, as well."
  134. Aug 02 13:33:32 <Knox> "As far as I know, no one's claimed the egg yet so help yourself if you want, I guess."
  135. Aug 02 13:33:37 <Mayuri> "... strange natures?" ^^;
  136. Aug 02 13:34:13 * Knox looks up. "Back up. 8k or 10k for full service?"
  137. Aug 02 13:34:23 <Aori_Radidjiu> "8k for full service."
  138. Aug 02 13:34:41 * Lesieli perks up "Something unusual? What's that mean?"
  139. Aug 02 13:35:59 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Basically a Shiny Pokemon, of possibly a different type or maybe just flat out much stronger. The results are pretty unpredictable, but they've always turned out better. Hard to say exactly what you'll get, though."
  140. Aug 02 13:36:04 <Melons> "Um...I'll pay for the complete package: unusualness, strange, and all that."
  141. Aug 02 13:36:20 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Oh, and miss..." He looks over Lesieli's egg. "That's a Tyrogue."
  142. Aug 02 13:36:40 * Knox puts down 8k. "Same. You said these were Charmanders? I want mine geared toward physical ability."
  143. Aug 02 13:36:55 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Got it."
  144. Aug 02 13:37:01 <Melons> "I want to go special myself!"
  145. Aug 02 13:38:42 <Knox> "As far as its moves go, I don't know what you can do specifically but I want to see decent type coverage or otherwise offense-based utility moves."
  146. Aug 02 13:38:59 <Mayuri> "Well~ If Lesieli won't try to steal the egg, I guess I might go get the egg on the ship."
  147. Aug 02 13:39:07 <Aori_Radidjiu> At this point he's jotting down notes.
  148. Aug 02 13:39:11 <Knox> "That's all I got."
  149. Aug 02 13:39:59 <Lesieli> I totally will. You know I will
  150. Aug 02 13:40:32 <Aori_Radidjiu> You hand it to the breeder and Les can't steal it~
  151. Aug 02 13:40:40 <Melons> "I'm hoping for one that's pretty resilient and badass a- oh, can I just get your number so we can tell you specifics later if we have other thoughts?"
  152. Aug 02 13:41:17 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Sure!" He gives out his number to all of you.
  153. Aug 02 13:41:36 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I should be able to get all of these hatched tomorrow, if you don't mind."
  154. Aug 02 13:41:54 <Mayuri> "I guess either Lesieli or I'll be back later today, hun~"
  155. Aug 02 13:42:15 <Melons> "Alright...oh, hey Momoka, Mark gave us passes for the hot springs...and he also beat up your favorite niece. So, we're going to do that or something...right?"
  156. Aug 02 13:42:46 <Aori_Radidjiu> She gives a thumbs up. "Go ahead~"
  157. Aug 02 13:43:09 * Mackenzie glances at Jennifer. "So anyway, uh... Liek I was saying..."
  158. Aug 02 13:43:12 <Mackenzie> *Like
  159. Aug 02 13:44:45 <Mackenzie> "I was wondering if you'd like a free pass here."
  160. Aug 02 13:45:06 <Melons> "Mack's saying he wants to make a pass at you."
  161. Aug 02 13:45:28 <Mackenzie> "She's my boss."
  162. Aug 02 13:46:39 <Melons> "Oh, I didn't know you were into that sort of thing..."
  163. Aug 02 13:49:01 * Melons turns to stare at Shyla, not saying anything for a bit.
  164. Aug 02 13:49:27 <Knox> "...going ahead in to the springs, huh?" He's distant a moment. "...You all go ahead, then."
  165. Aug 02 13:49:48 <Mackenzie> "Bashful again!"
  166. Aug 02 13:49:58 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I wouldn't mind. These are segregated by gender, correct?" She turns to Momoka. "Ah, yes! Although there IS a mixed bath for couples and families, and there are smaller private rooms that are anything goes. Um, we'd prefer it if you use the segregated ones, though..."
  167. Aug 02 13:50:01 <Lesieli> "Alright then, full service for me too it seems. Hoping for a nice, speedy fighter with good coverage I suppose? Guess I'll send you more info if I need to"
  168. Aug 02 13:50:03 <Knox> "You are terrible at reading people."
  169. Aug 02 13:50:37 * Knox turns to head out, heading back to the ship.
  170. Aug 02 13:51:05 <Aori_Radidjiu> Knox going in later~?
  171. Aug 02 13:51:12 <Mayuri> "I guess I'll look around town for a while then~"
  172. Aug 02 13:51:37 <Aori_Radidjiu> P-please go to the hot springs, I was gonna' do something for you guys with them.
  173. Aug 02 13:52:07 * Melons sends a message to Mirai and Phantasia about springing. "Alright Disciple. First order of business: catching up with my cousin after a shitfucktonlong time apart."
  174. Aug 02 13:52:12 <Knox> Knox goes back to the ship long enough to mention the passes to Robin and Auriga offhandedly, before coming back
  175. Aug 02 13:52:13 <Lesieli> It's like he doesn't even want to be part of the hot springs episode
  176. Aug 02 13:52:25 * Knox actually isn't gone all that long, heading back in.
  177. Aug 02 13:52:49 <Mackenzie> "I just figured you deserved something like this, for all the hard work you do that makes our lives so much easier, from behind the scenes." He thinks a moment. "I uh, suppose I'll probably be alone, then."
  178. Aug 02 13:53:19 * Mayuri sneaks off to the ship and attempts to steal the Mawile egg.
  179. Aug 02 13:53:36 <Mayuri> 5d6+3 Guile: I'm totally going off to shop for pretty clothes!
  180. Aug 02 13:53:37 <DiceMaid-9001> Mayuri, Guile: I'm totally going off to shop for pretty clothes!: 27 [5d6=1,6,5,6,6]
  181. Aug 02 13:53:47 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mistral's watcing it, but she lets you take it if you want it.
  182. Aug 02 13:54:33 <Aori_Radidjiu> Coming back to the spring to negotiate the breeding deal and then go to the springs, Mayuri?
  183. Aug 02 13:54:42 <Mayuri> Of course~
  184. Aug 02 13:55:07 <Aori_Radidjiu> The Breeder smirks as you come in. "Just like you mentioned, huh? What'll it be?"
  185. Aug 02 13:56:03 <Lesieli> Fiiine, I suppose you can have it if you want it.
  186. Aug 02 13:56:07 <Mayuri> "Hmm~ Well...."
  187. Aug 02 13:56:14 <Lesieli> I'll never have a cute little mawile
  188. Aug 02 13:58:59 * Knox heads on in to the male spring.
  189. Aug 02 13:59:15 <Mayuri> "What does the full service usually get you?"
  190. Aug 02 14:00:32 <Aori_Radidjiu> "The 8k? an unusual personality, influence of moves, health fortification, and a mutation."
  191. Aug 02 14:00:36 <Aori_Radidjiu> "That egg..."
  192. Aug 02 14:01:07 <Aori_Radidjiu> "It's a Mawile...it seems unusual already. It seems to have the Fighting Type instead of the Steel."
  193. Aug 02 14:02:46 <Mayuri> "... aren't Steel types usually harder to squish?" ^.^;
  194. Aug 02 14:03:17 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I didn't choose it!"
  195. Aug 02 14:03:30 <Aori_Radidjiu> "It's just how it's going to be born."
  196. Aug 02 14:04:07 <Aori_Radidjiu> "When something like this comes along, my unusual treatment doesn't usually change it, only makes it even stronger somehow."
  197. Aug 02 14:07:27 * Melons awaits hot springs episode.
  198. Aug 02 14:07:43 <Mayuri> "Well~ I'll guess I'll see what happens with the full treatment then~"
  199. Aug 02 14:07:53 * Mayuri turns in Mawile and 8000P!
  200. Aug 02 14:08:06 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Anything you want in terms of moves or personality?"
  201. Aug 02 14:08:24 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Or anything in particular you want fortified?"
  202. Aug 02 14:08:34 * Mackenzie heads to the dude spring while this goes on.
  203. Aug 02 14:09:14 <Mayuri> "Hmm... Well, I'm interested in a Pokemon to try and cover Cool and Tough contests~"
  204. Aug 02 14:09:46 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I'll keep that in mind, then."
  205. Aug 02 14:10:01 <Aori_Radidjiu> "It should hatch early tomorrow."
  206. Aug 02 14:13:01 <Mayuri> "And... well~ If you could do it, stronger physically and faster in battle, and not too mean out of battle~ I got hot springs to get to, so~"
  207. Aug 02 14:13:07 * Mayuri runs off to stop holding up everybody else!
  208. Aug 02 14:13:59 <Aori_Radidjiu> And with that, you should all be set to go to the hot springs, where you all spend some time relaxing. YOu've all been through a lot, and now's a great time to think back on all your experiences, learn from them a little, and look forward to the future! And the hot water is just perfect to fix all your tiredness! All Injuries healed! HP restored! +1 Atk/Def/SAt/SDf/Spd, +2 HP, +1
  209. Aug 02 14:14:00 <Aori_Radidjiu> to your lowest attribute (body, mind, spirit), and one free skill stunt!
  210. Aug 02 14:17:00 <Aori_Radidjiu> scratch that +1 lowest attribute, put it to any, the max of +6 still applies
  211. Aug 02 14:18:29 <Melons> Melanie, of course, is not going to suddenly stop bitching about that time her uncle beat the fuck out of her. She will hold that over him until the grave.
  212. Aug 02 14:21:26 <Melons> She also refuses to look forward to the future and is instead a little scared of it. But not as scared as she used to be, to be fair.
  213. Aug 02 14:22:45 * Mayuri .. thinks of things coordinators think of? Futures are fun! As long as you don't grow up too much.
  214. Aug 02 14:24:44 * Knox does reflect on things. ...Shit may be fucked, but a year ago he thought everyone was dead. And now there's at least three-four alive. Things may not be perfect, but that's a goddamn sight better than it was.
  215. Aug 02 14:24:55 * Knox gains a bit of confidence, +1 Spirit.
  216. Aug 02 14:28:09 * Mackenzie tries to think everything out, but has difficulty doing so without saying it out loud. "Everything is so screwy now."
  217. Aug 02 14:28:12 * Lesieli melts into the water, feels sogood
  218. Aug 02 14:28:37 <Mackenzie> He isn't talking to anyone in particular, but Knox is probably the only other person there.
  219. Aug 02 14:28:55 <Knox> "Tell me about it. Still, we're alive, and our efforts don't seem to be going to waste, so fucking hurray for us?" He leans back in the water.
  220. Aug 02 14:30:18 * Melons flicks some water at Lesieli.
  221. Aug 02 14:30:42 <Knox> "It hasn't been long since I joined and since then we've defeated two gods, a base full of an interdimensional crime syndicate division, and a bunch of mercs with bad fashion sense."
  222. Aug 02 14:30:43 <Lesieli> How? Didn't you read, I melted into the water
  223. Aug 02 14:31:05 * Melons drinks Lesieli then.
  224. Aug 02 14:31:15 * Knox apparently taught Acid Armor to Les at some point
  225. Aug 02 14:31:37 <Lesieli> That's sounds like it should sound lewd, but doesn't.
  226. Aug 02 14:32:44 <Mackenzie> "It's just so incredibly far beyond anything I expected. For a while we were just fighting enemies, and now it's like, people getting all these freaky-ass powers, someone almost getting their body stolen, and then, apparently, becoming one with that... Fighting gods... It's so out there."
  227. Aug 02 14:32:54 * Mayuri stares at Lesieli and Melons
  228. Aug 02 14:34:30 <Knox> "Yeah, well."
  229. Aug 02 14:35:10 <Lesieli> "Gah, what's that for? Here I'm trying to relax, and you aquatically assault me?"
  230. Aug 02 14:35:32 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna pops up behind Melanie. "I'll show you aquatic assault~" Tackle.
  231. Aug 02 14:37:45 <Mackenzie> "I know that we have to do what's necessary to take these people out, but... At what point are we overstepping the power we need, and being just as greedy as them?"
  232. Aug 02 14:38:49 * Mayuri sneaks back a little to avoid the impending water fight!
  233. Aug 02 14:39:29 <Melons> Melanie shifts back into her Avatar form to BUBBLE BEAM EVERYTHING! ...non-offensively o-of course...
  234. Aug 02 14:40:14 <Aori_Radidjiu> There's a bit of a bubble beam war between you and Luna before she eventually relents (seems she learned it from Kanaloa as well) and sits back in the water. "Oh well~"
  235. Aug 02 14:40:29 <Lesieli> Do you even fit in the bath like that?
  236. Aug 02 14:40:45 <Melons> Avatar form is people form. And legendary form DOES have a tiny-mode.
  237. Aug 02 14:41:03 <Lesieli> Imagine what the poor staff thinks, seeing something like that in their bath
  238. Aug 02 14:41:17 <Lesieli> Oh, so you were in terror form to start. That's so much better
  239. Aug 02 14:41:57 <Melons> She's been in terror form since the gym battle! And she shifts back into it, the bone snake tightly and densely coiled around various parts of her body. "Hey, Les, why don't you ever show your final form?"
  240. Aug 02 14:42:14 <Knox> "They have words for this. Protagonist syndrome. When life as we know it stops being normal and a guy or group get thrust into increasingly ridiculous circumstances that culminate in achievements way beyond what common sense tells you they should be capable of. Kids stopping entire crime syndicates single handedly, for instance. Happens all the time, it seems. Like every other goddamn
  241. Aug 02 14:42:14 <Knox> day the world gets saved from some fucked up shit. Weren't Murphy and Lecia pretty young when they first got pulled into this shit? I think we're getting swept up into it too. My former captain made a habit of bringing it up to make us cautious. I'm not fucking hero material, but I don't intend to look a gift ponyta in the mouth either. "
  242. Aug 02 14:42:41 <Lesieli> You were slithering around town like that D: ?
  243. Aug 02 14:42:58 * Mayuri is probably splashed from form change AOE! Physics and all that. "Meeel!" >.<
  244. Aug 02 14:43:02 <Knox> (She was in a more human form of it)
  245. Aug 02 14:43:12 <Knox> (Which is just Melanie + bone armor)
  246. Aug 02 14:43:13 <Melons> No slithering in tiny form, the bones basically form an exoskeleton around normal-sized Melanie.
  247. Aug 02 14:43:45 <Lesieli> Still scary
  248. Aug 02 14:44:15 <Melons> Apparently not to anyone else though, they all seem to act like it was business as usual...
  249. Aug 02 14:44:18 <Lesieli> "Final form? What makes you think I've got one?"
  250. Aug 02 14:44:48 <Melons> "I've seen you go god mode. Although it's mostly a wardrobe change I guess..."
  251. Aug 02 14:44:54 <Lesieli> "I'm a /real/ god, not a freaky wannabe like you~"
  252. Aug 02 14:45:00 <Melons> "H-Hey!"
  253. Aug 02 14:45:36 <Melons> Mel scowls and pulls her knees up to her chest. She looks genuinely hurt. You dick.
  254. Aug 02 14:48:07 <Mayuri> "It's not like Mele has worshippers either, you know~"
  255. Aug 02 14:48:27 <Lesieli> "Oh, oh hey now, I'm just messing around. Everyone has to start somewhere, right? Even gods, I suppose" She pouts and swims over towards Mel
  256. Aug 02 14:50:11 <Knox> "To answer your question, though."
  257. Aug 02 14:50:11 <Melons> "I...thought it was supposed to go the other way around...y'know, gods exist because people believed in them."
  258. Aug 02 14:50:43 <Mackenzie> "Have they really done anything that drastic, though? Sure they rewrote reality and stuff, but it's not like they changed the world into a festering hell where their word is law, or anything. We can deal with what they've done so far."
  259. Aug 02 14:50:45 <Mayuri> "Er, hey. You're supposed to argue that you are a god, not that you aren't one."
  260. Aug 02 14:53:54 <Knox> "Who gives a fuck how greedy we are, exactly? It's what you do because of greed that has any effect. And honestly, face it. Most of this shit is just falling into our laps. It's not like either god on the boat is drawing power from crippled kitten orphanage blood sacrifices or whatever." Note, suggest this to Melanie. "And as long as we're not fucking things up, what does it matter?"
  261. Aug 02 14:54:53 <Knox> "Don't believe that 'absolute power corrupts absolutely' bullshit. You always have a choice how to apply yourself."
  262. Aug 02 14:54:58 <Lesieli> "Well, yeah, that's how I see it. Isn't that kinda what I said though? You start small and get bigger as people come to believe you. Just cause you're new doesn't mean you can't hit ti big, you just gotta work harder to have people recognize you."
  263. Aug 02 14:55:31 <Melons> "But no one believes in me! Not...like...that at least. I shouldn't even exist!"
  264. Aug 02 14:57:22 <Knox> "Anyway, I get the impression things would be a lot fucking worse off if Aether had more of an opportunity around the book than they did."
  265. Aug 02 14:58:10 <Knox> "Don't take the current state of affairs as anything, the shits behind this are little better than animals. And they're going to be put down."
  266. Aug 02 14:59:03 <Mayuri> "Could be, like, a goddess of.... uhm.... well..."
  267. Aug 02 15:00:11 * Lesieli shrugs "Dunno about that, but it's not like it can't be changed. You know, I'm aiming to revive worship across Wakino, you can totally make a Divine Debut too"
  268. Aug 02 15:00:58 <Mayuri> "... uhm, Lesieli..." ^^;
  269. Aug 02 15:01:10 <Mayuri> "What reason do people have to believe that you're, like, actually Mele?"
  270. Aug 02 15:01:22 <Lesieli> "Course, it's probably a lot easier if you're a nice god who people like. Are you a nice god?~""
  271. Aug 02 15:01:28 <Melons> "...if you cut out the shit you pulled back on Ark, I could help you with that...spoken a little to Kanaloa about existing...was planning on speaking with others too and hacking out a place for myself out of their existence, pretty much forcibly taking my own domains. Then I realized...there are already some absent ones here..."
  272. Aug 02 15:02:30 <Mayuri> "I mean, turning into a giant snake thing is more impressive than changing clothes. Fairytale girls do that all the time." ^.^;
  273. Aug 02 15:02:37 <Lesieli> ". . . yeah, that, uhhh. . . . let's just forget about that whole thing, right? Never happened."
  274. Aug 02 15:03:06 <Melons> "If you feel the need to be crazy again, let me know, and I'll help you with it. Or your boyfriend."
  275. Aug 02 15:03:33 <Mackenzie> "..."
  276. Aug 02 15:04:51 <Lesieli> "That wasn't exactly normal, right? Not anymore at least, that kind of behavior is way behind me. Just kinda freaked out there, but never again!"
  277. Aug 02 15:05:01 <Knox> "I don't need any more proof than what they did to Robin to know what they're willing to do."
  278. Aug 02 15:05:09 <Lesieli> ". . . and what? Boyfriend?"
  279. Aug 02 15:05:36 * Knox leans back and stews.
  280. Aug 02 15:05:53 <Melons> "Yeah, that one guy, white hair, glasses, all that.
  281. Aug 02 15:05:54 <Melons> "
  282. Aug 02 15:07:10 <Mackenzie> "I've been meaning to ask Lecia how exactly I play into this reality altering thing, the next time there's a chance... So maybe then I could learn a more real purpose. Right now, I just still feel like, some guy who wants to help out, or whatever."
  283. Aug 02 15:07:19 <Lesieli> "Uhhh, that guy? That's right, he's on the boat, isn't he. Why in the world would you think he's my boyfriend?"
  284. Aug 02 15:08:17 <Melons> "He seems to try to take care of you and I haven't seen him taking an interest in any of the other hundreds of girls on the ship."
  285. Aug 02 15:08:19 <Knox> "According to that message we were sent, none of us were brought here by chance."
  286. Aug 02 15:08:30 <Knox> "Take that how you want."
  287. Aug 02 15:08:58 <Knox> "I intend to find out what was changed between this world and the one before."
  288. Aug 02 15:10:00 <Mayuri> 5d6+4 Intuition
  289. Aug 02 15:10:01 <DiceMaid-9001> Mayuri, Intuition: 18 [5d6=3,6,2,1,2]
  290. Aug 02 15:11:04 * Lesieli ponders a moment ". . . and?"
  291. Aug 02 15:11:15 * Mackenzie has been laying back with his eyes closed this whole time. Just talking as if he were thinking to himself. "I have the responsibility of a legendary pokemon now, too. I want to make sure I do it right."
  292. Aug 02 15:11:33 <Mayuri> "I guess he desparately wants to be a boyfriend..."
  293. Aug 02 15:11:55 <Knox> "That pokemon you sent out during the gym? Yeah, you called her Eileen, didn't you."
  294. Aug 02 15:12:13 <Knox> "...At this rate, all of you fuckers are going to be gods or best friends with gods."
  295. Aug 02 15:12:18 * Knox chuckles.
  296. Aug 02 15:12:53 <Melons> "...Les does the thought of being old and alone not terrify you?"
  297. Aug 02 15:13:28 <Mayuri> "She's... uhm... a god."
  298. Aug 02 15:14:18 <Melons> "So? Plenty of stories about gods that take mortal lovers. In fact, occasionally the mortal inexpliciably becomes immortal?"
  299. Aug 02 15:14:35 * Lesieli just looks at her blankly, slight quizzical tilt to the head
  300. Aug 02 15:15:20 <Mackenzie> "She's the girl from that contest. A Meloetta. ...Is Meloetta even unique, or are there a bunch of them...? Anyway, she's been enamored with me for some time. She made a fan club around me."
  301. Aug 02 15:15:20 <Melons> "...the...the thought of having a kid has never crossed your mind...has it..."
  302. Aug 02 15:15:59 <Mayuri> "Yeah, but, gods don't grow to be old and alone."
  303. Aug 02 15:16:03 <Mayuri> "... right?"
  304. Aug 02 15:16:53 <Melons> "Well they still end up old by human standards and can totally be alone."
  305. Aug 02 15:17:18 <Lesieli> "N-no? Don't think I've ever thought about this sorta thing. Seem kinda young to worry much about it, don'tcha think?"
  306. Aug 02 15:18:12 <Mayuri> "Could always find someone a hundred years later though. Don't need to worry about being old and alone."
  307. Aug 02 15:18:17 <Melons> "NOEVERYONEWORRIESABOUTIT!"
  308. Aug 02 15:18:35 <Knox> "If you're into that sort of thing, it isn't my business to judge you." he remarks.
  309. Aug 02 15:19:06 * Mayuri stares at Melons
  310. Aug 02 15:19:09 <Lesieli> "Well seeing that I apparently never have, that's obviously a false statement~"
  311. Aug 02 15:20:21 <Mayuri> "... is Mel worried about not being able to have kids with Mirai... or... er... whoever you're going out with now?"
  312. Aug 02 15:20:50 <Lesieli> "Sounds like someone has interpersonal issues, hmmm?" She pokes Mel teasingly
  313. Aug 02 15:22:20 <Melons> Melanie just stares at her Totodile, moving him over to bite a different area because newborn croc teeth still hurt. She practices her camouflage powers, but only succeeds in blending into a brick wall.
  314. Aug 02 15:22:37 <Mayuri> "Well~ I guess that'd explain why Melons wants to see Kaane."
  315. Aug 02 15:23:11 <Lesieli> "Awww, comeon, don't be shy~ Aren't we all friends?"
  316. Aug 02 15:23:14 <Melons> "...we broke up...or...I broke up with her..."
  317. Aug 02 15:26:21 <Mayuri> "Erm... What happened?" ^.^;
  318. Aug 02 15:26:25 <Lesieli> "O-oh, really? Didn't realize that, sorry. Everythings still friendly though, right?"
  319. Aug 02 15:26:40 <Mayuri> "I figured you just wanted to go out with Knox or someone instead, not..."
  320. Aug 02 15:26:41 * Lesieli tries to think if she even realized they were going out in the first place.
  321. Aug 02 15:26:54 <Melons> "Yeah...I guess...she kept not realizing how terrible I am so I finally had to just end it to save her."
  322. Aug 02 15:29:06 <Aori_Radidjiu> "On a scale of 1 to 10, how terrible are you Mel?" Luna asks, grinning.
  323. Aug 02 15:29:25 <Lesieli> "Terrible? What makes you think you're terrible?"
  324. Aug 02 15:29:44 <Mayuri> "Yeah, if you're terrible, you do a good job of hiding it."
  325. Aug 02 15:30:05 * Mackenzie sinks down further under the water, about up to his chin. "That isn't funny. I'm really worried about treating her properly, as my pokemon. It's like... being tasked with commanding a prince in an army, or something."
  326. Aug 02 15:30:26 <Melons> "10, assuming it's like the kind of scale they use for earthquakes...also I'm aware I'm hiding it, I actively did it, and that's what makes me even worse."
  327. Aug 02 15:30:39 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Don't worry, I'm terrible too."
  328. Aug 02 15:30:50 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Look at all those people I'm making my show for~"
  329. Aug 02 15:31:17 <Aori_Radidjiu> "We can be terrible together, it fits~"
  330. Aug 02 15:31:41 <Melons> "I...don't think our offenses are on the same page...oh, has Kanaloa got you the song thing or whatever you're going to be including yet?"
  331. Aug 02 15:31:50 * Mayuri thinks, but refuses to say out loud. "... It's not that terrible to take advantage of terrible people, is it?"
  332. Aug 02 15:31:52 <Melons> "...also wait, isn't it our show now?" Squint.
  333. Aug 02 15:32:13 <Knox> "And I'm telling you, you're worrying too much about it. If she didn't think you weren't up to the task, she wouldn't have approached you in the first place."
  334. Aug 02 15:32:15 <Aori_Radidjiu> She nods. "I already uploaded the first episode that features that song in the intro, and he's started letting me learn things."
  335. Aug 02 15:32:30 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I guess it is! I haven't asked you much for input on it, have I?
  336. Aug 02 15:32:32 <Aori_Radidjiu> "
  337. Aug 02 15:32:55 <Mayuri> "... oh, that explains why Mel's taking this form now~"
  338. Aug 02 15:33:41 <Lesieli> "Wait, you went and saw Kanaloa without me? No faaaiirrrr"
  339. Aug 02 15:34:02 <Melons> "...I didn't even get to see the episode...also can you teach me the shit he teaches you? I don't recall it ever being required that you couldn't."
  340. Aug 02 15:34:02 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Oh, I was gonna' do it on my own, and then Melanie came in and asked about it so we went together!"
  341. Aug 02 15:34:08 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Sorry!"
  342. Aug 02 15:34:24 <Aori_Radidjiu> She smirks. "I can show you it after this, it's the oil rig fiasco."
  343. Aug 02 15:34:53 <Knox> "I don't know what it is with the people on this boat but there's an awful lot of instances where people don't give their friends, lovers, pokemon or whatever the fuck enough credit. You might feel a huge responsibility, and fuck, it is. But more than that she approached you first as a person, not a trainer. And I'm pretty goddamn sure she's not a horrible enough judge of character to
  344. Aug 02 15:34:53 <Knox> pick someone that can't shoulder that responsibility."
  345. Aug 02 15:35:14 <Melons> "How...fun. Oh that reminds me, try to keep any other spectacular opportunities like the water to yourself again and I'm tossing you off the ship." She smiles a bit.
  346. Aug 02 15:35:34 <Knox> "Things are pretty goddamn bad when I'm the one giving inspiring advice."
  347. Aug 02 15:36:23 <Aori_Radidjiu> Her grin widens. "Oh, my, what a harsh mistress I have~." She theatrically puts the back of her hand to her forehead, eyes closed. "Whatever shall I do against such tyranny~?"
  348. Aug 02 15:36:35 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I guess I must submit to her~"
  349. Aug 02 15:37:38 <Melons> "...m-mistress? Y-You weren't seeing s-someone else when I m-made my decree, were y-you?!" OhfuckdidImakesomeoneelsehonorboundtocheatwhyamItheworst?!
  350. Aug 02 15:37:59 <Aori_Radidjiu> She leans over, offering her hands to you as if to be shackled. "Come, chain me in eternal bondage!"
  351. Aug 02 15:38:08 <Aori_Radidjiu> "...naw, you're the only person I'm involved with."
  352. Aug 02 15:38:18 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Haven't dated since high school, actually~"
  353. Aug 02 15:38:29 * Lesieli just stares at them. What the heck is going on here?
  354. Aug 02 15:38:44 * Mayuri joins Lesieli in staring. Mel with Luna?
  355. Aug 02 15:39:18 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Can your snake wrap around other people? Can you tie me up with it? ...maybe I should ask this in private~"
  356. Aug 02 15:39:26 <Lesieli> For goodness sakes, there are children in the room.
  357. Aug 02 15:39:35 <Melons> Melanie gives a big sigh of relief. "...what, it would probably crush your b- what are you staring at?"
  358. Aug 02 15:40:28 <Melons> Wait, what? "...if I tied you up with myself, wouldn't I be tied up as well?"
  359. Aug 02 15:40:40 <Aori_Radidjiu> "You'd be wrapped around me~"
  360. Aug 02 15:41:30 <Mayuri> Luna is not allowed near Mayuri's parents.
  361. Aug 02 15:41:36 <Mayuri> They'd kill her for associating with such a girl.
  362. Aug 02 15:41:48 <Aori_Radidjiu> By the by, in the men's bath, Ken, Pierce, and Lani are here. Along with Bearington.
  363. Aug 02 15:42:40 * Mackenzie just goes completely under, some hair visible on the surface.
  364. Aug 02 15:42:44 * Lesieli These two are a bit, uh, huh. She covers Mayuri's ears for safe measure
  365. Aug 02 15:42:59 <Mayuri> "Maybe you should discuss what you want to see Kaane for in private...."
  366. Aug 02 15:43:02 * Mayuri is ear covered!
  367. Aug 02 15:43:28 <Aori_Radidjiu> Auriga and Phantasia are covering their eyes and peaking through their figners
  368. Aug 02 15:43:29 <Melons> "...w-what?! THAT'S NOT WHAT I WANT FROM HIM!" Mel uses Splash.
  369. Aug 02 15:43:29 <Knox> "Suit yourself."
  370. Aug 02 15:43:30 <Aori_Radidjiu> *fingers
  371. Aug 02 15:43:55 <Aori_Radidjiu> Jen has a neutral stare. Like "Really?"
  372. Aug 02 15:44:04 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mirai is off fighting Mark
  373. Aug 02 15:44:26 <Melons> *getting off
  374. Aug 02 15:44:49 <Aori_Radidjiu> Marie is chuckling to herself, and Shyla is blushing.
  375. Aug 02 15:45:18 * Melons makes a mental note to have her Disciple read Luna's mind at some point.
  376. Aug 02 15:45:25 * Mayuri returns fire with Flash! :<
  377. Aug 02 15:45:42 <Melons> Woahlewd.
  378. Aug 02 15:45:51 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna falls over. "Blinded by the radiant light of love~" Splash, down she goes
  379. Aug 02 15:45:55 * Knox looks over at Pierce. "So, how crowded do you think the women's side is. I'm surprised I'm not hearing reality itself rip apart."
  380. Aug 02 15:46:21 <Melons> Melanie quickly goes human form to avoid slipping and dropping her heavy ass on someone while blinded.
  381. Aug 02 15:46:47 <Melons> ...and attempts to retaliate with GLOWBUTT...but...oh it doesn't get near bright enough to be blinding...
  382. Aug 02 15:48:03 <Aori_Radidjiu> "What light through yonder pool breaks?" Luna pops out and grabs Mel by the stomach and drags her down with her.
  383. Aug 02 15:48:41 * Mayuri tries to shake loose the Lesieli now that Mel and Luna are distracted
  384. Aug 02 15:49:01 * Lesieli gives with no resistance. Danger's gone, for the moment at least
  385. Aug 02 15:49:04 <Aori_Radidjiu> Shyla nudges Les. "A-are they always this bad?"
  386. Aug 02 15:49:21 <Lesieli> "Those two, sheesh"
  387. Aug 02 15:49:26 <Mayuri> "I just learned they were together a few minutes ago."
  388. Aug 02 15:49:35 <Lesieli> "I have no idea, I've never seen them like that before"
  389. Aug 02 15:50:04 <Melons> It's not long before Melanie is struggling to get back above water while cough-blubbering a large amount of water out. Water doesn't go in lungs.
  390. Aug 02 15:50:06 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Huh. I'm kind of jealous I couldn't go to the pool with Pierce..."
  391. Aug 02 15:51:07 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna comes up with Mel, laughing, and patting her on the back. "Cough it all out now, hun~"
  392. Aug 02 15:52:10 <Melons> It doesn't take Mel long to realize how lewd this must seem and OHGODEVERYONE'SWATCHINGANDOHGODISMITUSKOSTILLHEREWHYISTHISHAPPENING?!
  393. Aug 02 15:52:33 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mitsuko is laughing her ass off
  394. Aug 02 15:53:39 * Knox finally decides he's had enough lounging in the springs and gets up to get out, going for a towel.
  395. Aug 02 15:54:14 <Aori_Radidjiu> Pierce (sorry Knox) has his face scramble. "I just hope Shyla's doing okay with that crazy one."
  396. Aug 02 15:54:21 * Melons just hides behind Abe again.
  397. Aug 02 15:54:25 * Mayuri is now under the impression that Mel broke up with Mirai to be Luna's girlfriend.
  398. Aug 02 15:54:43 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I usually avoid crazy by principle but it looks like I just can't."
  399. Aug 02 15:55:30 <Melons> "H-Hey...s-so Mitsuko...d-do you climb the mountain r-regularly too?
  400. Aug 02 15:55:46 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Aha...ha...oh, the mountain? Yeah, I do!"
  401. Aug 02 15:55:55 <Aori_Radidjiu> She gives a big grin.
  402. Aug 02 15:55:56 <Knox> One towel around his waist, one around his shoulders, he looks back over at Pierce. "She's probably harmless unless you piss her off. Which is probably pretty easy to do, come to think of it. So she's mostly not harmless." he thinks on that, then shrugs.
  403. Aug 02 15:56:16 <Mayuri> 5d6+4 Intuition: How much is Luna enjoying torturing Mel
  404. Aug 02 15:56:17 <DiceMaid-9001> Mayuri, Intuition: How much is Luna enjoying torturing Mel: 21 [5d6=3,6,1,4,3]
  405. Aug 02 15:56:36 <Melons> "...I wanna go up there before we leave."
  406. Aug 02 15:56:37 <Aori_Radidjiu> Pierce sighs. "Well, it's a public place, she can't go and murder her in front of everyone else!"
  407. Aug 02 15:56:46 <Aori_Radidjiu> "...right?"
  408. Aug 02 15:57:37 <Mayuri> "So you can have an egg with Luna, right?"
  409. Aug 02 15:57:44 * Mackenzie still requires air, so he comes up.
  410. Aug 02 15:57:53 <Knox> "Right. Just relax."
  411. Aug 02 15:58:29 <Aori_Radidjiu> Lani's fallen asleep in the hot spring, Bearington seems a bit awkward. "Um, er, oi'm not oot of place am oi?"
  412. Aug 02 15:59:13 <Knox> "Believe it or not this is probably one of the places you're less out of place in." he remarks, since these sort of things don't usually bar pokemon, that he knows of.
  413. Aug 02 15:59:19 <Melons> "I AM GOING TO BREAK YOU, SHRIMP!" Melanie scrambles to her feet, a tricky thing when in water, prepared to strangle a kid...then realizes how much she's exposed herself and was just plotting murdering a kid and collapses back down in embarrassment.
  414. Aug 02 15:59:54 <Lesieli> "Sounds good to me, I'd like to go up there and check it out myself" Said before that outburst, of course
  415. Aug 02 15:59:59 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna giggles. "Naw, that'd be weird. If we want a baby I'm sure we can ask Knox to help, or someone else~"
  416. Aug 02 16:00:01 * Mayuri flinches a little o.o
  417. Aug 02 16:00:09 <Knox> "Anyway, I've had enough. I'll-" he listens. "...So much for no mruder in a public place." he chuckles and goes for the door. "Later."
  418. Aug 02 16:00:15 <Lesieli> "There is a shuttle or something going up there though, right?"
  419. Aug 02 16:00:40 <Melons> "...K-Kaane...w-wouldn't be impressed...i-if we did that..."
  420. Aug 02 16:00:46 <Mackenzie> "She's going to be our next objective after Aether, I'd bet."
  421. Aug 02 16:00:54 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mitsuko shrugs. "No shuttle, gotta' walk up yourself. It's a bit of a hike, I imagine you guys won't be able ot run it like Mark or I can, so we'll walk and take breaks."
  422. Aug 02 16:00:56 <Mayuri> "I- I... was joking there!" ^.^;
  423. Aug 02 16:01:39 <Mayuri> "... I wanted to see what a human egg would look like."
  424. Aug 02 16:01:49 * Knox heads out!
  425. Aug 02 16:02:02 <Knox> Provided he doesn't bump into anyone or anything out there, that'll be me withdrawing for now.
  426. Aug 02 16:02:22 <Melons> Melanie gives a weird look to Mayuri...and then a disgusted look...and then another weird look...and then just bursts out laughing a bit. "Dude, that's...just...gross."
  427. Aug 02 16:05:50 <Mackenzie> "So, Akuman..."
  428. Aug 02 16:06:09 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna giggles. "That's silly, you're silly. Maybe Kanaloa has a spell for it, I could look it up~
  429. Aug 02 16:06:11 <Aori_Radidjiu> “
  430. Aug 02 16:06:28 <Mayuri> "I thought Kaane was the one with a fetility domain."
  431. Aug 02 16:06:40 <Melons> "Fuck this, I'm out, you're all weird and gross!"
  432. Aug 02 16:06:46 <Aori_Radidjiu> "He is, but Kanaloa has a pretty vast library of spells."
  433. Aug 02 16:07:26 <Lesieli> 6d6+8 There isn't any sort of . . . precedent for this sorta thing in folklore anywhere, is there?
  434. Aug 02 16:07:27 <DiceMaid-9001> Lesieli, There isn't any sort of . . . precedent for this sorta thing in folklore anywhere, is there?: 29 [6d6=1,4,5,5,1,5]
  435. Aug 02 16:07:29 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Mmm?"
  436. Aug 02 16:07:34 <Aori_Radidjiu> The bear perks up at his name.
  437. Aug 02 16:07:57 <Aori_Radidjiu> Nnnnnnot really.
  438. Aug 02 16:08:04 <Lesieli> Phew, good
  439. Aug 02 16:08:05 <Mayuri> "I don't think Kanaloa would take interest in me. Hermit Town's library is big enough, hun~"
  440. Aug 02 16:08:46 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna blinks. "Oh, you mean you want to find one? I was offering to look for one, I have access to his whole library~"
  441. Aug 02 16:08:49 <Mackenzie> "What do you think about all this stuff going on? Altering reality... The dream world... There's been proof that they've been doing experimentation in the cave we found you in."
  442. Aug 02 16:09:51 <Mayuri> "I don't think Mel would be happy about that~ ... and I had different spells in mind."
  443. Aug 02 16:10:14 <Aori_Radidjiu> "It moight mean oi was the result of that, but oi doan't know for sure...oi sure would loik to know, though!"
  444. Aug 02 16:11:04 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna leeeeans in. "Like what?"
  445. Aug 02 16:13:00 <Melons> 3d6+4 Melanie pauses her departure just a bit to try to listen to the rest of this fucked up stuff.
  446. Aug 02 16:13:01 <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Melanie pauses her departure just a bit to try to listen to the rest of this fucked up stuff.: 15 [3d6=2,4,5]
  447. Aug 02 16:13:26 <Mayuri> "Not growing up, cotton candy bombs that you can't rip apart, you know, that kind of thing~"
  448. Aug 02 16:14:59 <Mackenzie> "They might have changed you from a highly influential figure, for all we know. We should get you an appointment with Lecia to see if there's anything of note."
  449. Aug 02 16:15:37 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I heard there was a vampire in Wakino, Vampires don't age, do they?"
  450. Aug 02 16:15:57 <Aori_Radidjiu> Akuman thinks. "Oi would loik that! Or mebbe oi was just a poirate, more deadly than any other~"
  451. Aug 02 16:17:59 <Mayuri> "... I, uhm... I'm not sure that's the best idea, hun~"
  452. Aug 02 16:19:05 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna shrugs. "Gotta' consider allllll your options! I've heard of a magical Miltank that if you drink its milk every day you never age~! But if you miss even a single day, your age catches up to you, and you might crumble to dust!"
  453. Aug 02 16:21:43 <Mayuri> "There's also apparently some fairy thing about ignoring reality or something. Sounds slightly less painful than the other options, hun~"
  454. Aug 02 16:22:16 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Oh, that's a load of bull, I know, I've looked into it."
  455. Aug 02 16:22:33 <Aori_Radidjiu> "I tried it when I was your age!"
  456. Aug 02 16:22:39 * Melons mutters something about squandered talent and officially takes her leave to go play with her newest addition to her team.
  457. Aug 02 16:23:54 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mirai passes by you as you exit the springs, Melanie! She looks none the worse for wear.
  458. Aug 02 16:24:20 <Mayuri> "Hey, it sounds like it might have something to do with the dream world~ Worth a shot."
  459. Aug 02 16:24:35 <Melons> Melanie smiles before immediately freezing up in horror.
  460. Aug 02 16:25:06 <Mayuri> "Lesieli, if it does, you're helping."
  461. Aug 02 16:25:10 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mirai smirks. "Your towel's slipping. Something up?"
  462. Aug 02 16:26:48 <Melons> "...n-no...s-springs warm...h-how'd your battle go?" What's slipping?
  463. Aug 02 16:27:08 <Aori_Radidjiu> Specifically it's in the changing room, so Mirai's stripping down. "Well! I won, although it was pretty close!"
  464. Aug 02 16:27:27 <Melons> "...h-he's my uncle, y'know...apparently..."
  465. Aug 02 16:27:44 <Aori_Radidjiu> "Pretty tough guy."
  466. Aug 02 16:27:55 <Lesieli> "Helping? Sure, why not"
  467. Aug 02 16:28:05 <Melons> "His daughter's even tougher...and she's in there...if you want to meet her...yeah..."
  468. Aug 02 16:28:35 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna shrugs again. "Just be careful, if you use your dreams to keep yourself going, it might be hard to differentiate dreams and reality!"
  469. Aug 02 16:29:04 <Melons> "...w-well not biological daughter..."
  470. Aug 02 16:29:56 <Lesieli> "You know, that might not necessarily be a /bad/ thing"
  471. Aug 02 16:30:05 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mirai nods. "Cool, wouldn't mind meeting her."
  472. Aug 02 16:31:31 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mirai tosses her dress off to the side and starts washing herself off before SPRING. That's the proper etiquette, after all
  473. Aug 02 16:31:35 <Mayuri> "Still better than drinking blood."
  474. Aug 02 16:31:36 <Mackenzie> "...How have you guys been holding on, anyway?"
  475. Aug 02 16:31:54 <Melons> "...yeah...so...that's...yeah." ...smooth. "...I um....hatched my new Totodile..." She holds him up. .-.
  476. Aug 02 16:32:20 <Aori_Radidjiu> Lani's still sleeping. Ken shrugs. "Fine." Akuman nods. "Also okay!" Pierce shrugs. "I think I'm about done."
  477. Aug 02 16:32:20 <Mackenzie> "Hasn't been too hectic with all the chaos going on lately, has it?"
  478. Aug 02 16:33:24 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna leans back on th eedge of the pool. "Your choice! Just be prepared for consequences no matter what way you go!"
  479. Aug 02 16:35:46 <Aori_Radidjiu> Mirai nods. "Cute! Is there something you want from me, Mel~?"
  480. Aug 02 16:37:36 <Aori_Radidjiu> Ken looks at Lani. "I think it's tiring him out."
  481. Aug 02 16:38:18 <Melons> "...n-no...I m-mean...not that I...have fun...in there...y-you've earned it..." Melanie puts the Totodile down to change into her normal people clothes...okay, normal clothes for crazy people, picks him back up and kind of awkwardly heads back for the ship, turning back a few times with her mouth open.
  482. Aug 02 16:39:15 <Aori_Radidjiu> "You all right?" Mirai watches you leave with some concern, but shrugs and heads to the spring. Technically not her problem. Technically.
  483. Aug 02 16:40:13 * Mayuri (mayu@sux-DCC9351A.lightspeed.rcsntx.sbcglobal.net) has left (Hug~♪)
  484. Aug 02 16:40:17 * Mayuri (mayu@sux-DCC9351A.lightspeed.rcsntx.sbcglobal.net) has joined
  485. Aug 02 16:40:35 <Mackenzie> "I'm not saying anything against him as a captain; he's definitely excellent at his job, but... I'm not sure why they put someone older like him in such an important position. It's got nothing to do with his ability; I'm just concerned for his health."
  486. Aug 02 16:41:17 <Aori_Radidjiu> Ken exhales. "Maybe we should find a replacement and convince him to retire? Hrm."
  487. Aug 02 16:42:06 <Mackenzie> "I'm not so sure about that, but maybe we could get some more in the way of active hands."
  488. Aug 02 16:42:31 <Mayuri> "Hmm... I think I figured that out around when I decided to stick with the Mutany, or when I decided to stay a coordinator, hun~"
  489. Aug 02 16:43:49 <Aori_Radidjiu> Ken nods. "I'll see about it."
  490. Aug 02 16:44:11 <Aori_Radidjiu> Luna shrugs as Mirai comes in. "Well, we're all looking out for you, so don't worry too hard!"
  491. Aug 02 16:44:33 * Mayuri waves to Mirai~
  492. Aug 02 16:44:34 <Aori_Radidjiu> And on that note, I think we can end. Maybe a little adrupt, but I think we've covered everything we have to.
  493. Aug 02 16:45:39 <Lesieli> Surprised there was no breast groping at any point.
  494. Aug 02 16:45:49 <Aori_Radidjiu> I run a CLASSY hot springs episode
  495. Aug 02 16:46:53 <Mackenzie> "Well, just make sure he doesn't prune over in here..." He says as he begins getting out. "...And thank you," he adds with a more sincere tone than he's used to using.
  496. Aug 02 16:46:58 <Mackenzie> WOO LAST NOTE
