  1. [21:09] <Sara_Tosen> January 7, 20XX. Another day wandering about for Sara Tosen. She was used to the silence. Even if her eardrums functioned properly she likely wouldn't hear a lot.
  2. [21:09] <Sara_Tosen> (feel free to drop in, it's just fluffing for the sake of fluffing)
  3. [21:10] <zoofman> (it's official)
  4. [21:10] <zoofman> (the dungeon part of the mansion is done)
  5. [21:10] <zoofman> (I just need to stat up the enemies)
  6. [21:11] <Kuji> Kuji Kotodes was reading the new issue of FIGHTING TYPES WEEKLY! ...okay, that was a complete lie. He was reading a back issue checked out of the library while sipping some milk tea.
  7. 01[21:12] <Trevor> (I have something planned for Altho myself zoof ; I just need a general level range for the Pokemon and some time to sketch out a quick floor plan and then I'll be done with mine, ready to roll whenever the fuck I feel and Garlyle approves.)
  8. [21:12] <Sara_Tosen> The area was quiet, which made for good reading. Sara herself had just picked up a "how to draw pokemon" book, and was practicing her ability to sketch things on the fly.
  9. 03[21:13] * castfromhp is now known as castfromzombies
  10. [21:13] <Plutonis> (I still want to know if Gabe is okay if us doing Hunts and boss pokes)
  11. [21:13] <Kuji> While flipping a page, Kuji glanced at Sara. <Ah. Nice to see you again... Sara.>
  12. 03[21:13] * castfromzombies is now known as castfromhp
  13. [21:13] <zoofman> (I gotta get a last second thing approved too, but...outside of that and the unstatted boss, it's done. EXP budget is my biggest qustion.)
  14. [21:13] <Kuji> (Well, I think Hunt-like sessions are okay.)
  15. [21:14] <zoofman> (I'll run it this weekend for sure, but not tomorrow.)
  16. [21:14] <Sara_Tosen> "...?" The girl looks up and sees the officer. Great. Someone she REALLY didn't want to be talking to. So she tried to ignore him.
  17. [21:14] <zoofman> (tomorrow, i'm gonna go see Kung Fu Panda 2 :3)
  18. [21:14] <Plutonis> (i statted one boss and did a little "playtest" using Grant, Jamal and Salino as guinea pigs)
  19. [21:14] <Sara_Tosen> (can you take that to OOC please?)
  20. [21:15] <Kuji> (...Charm... >_>)
  21. [21:15] <Kuji> (It's fine for me.)
  22. [21:15] <Sara_Tosen> (I don't mean to be rude but it's confusing to rp while this is going)
  23. [21:15] <Kuji> (just check for parenthesis.)
  24. [21:16] <Sara_Tosen> <...>
  25. 06[21:16] * Kuji frowned slightly before being consumed on the latest article about Timburrs and their evolutions.
  26. 01[21:18] <Trevor> (Need some help provoking conversation? :P)
  27. 06[21:19] * Sara_Tosen sighs. The man's presence was messing up her concentration.
  28. [21:19] <Sara_Tosen> <What do you want?> she sounds...a bit angry.
  29. [21:20] <Kuji> <If you don't want anything... how have you been doing?> Kuji asked, genuinely worried about the girl. After all, she's been the host of a calamity of problems.
  30. [21:22] <Sara_Tosen> <Just peachy...almost got stabbed by a cop with a giant halberd and an itchy trigger finger. Oh wait...> it's clear she is still bitter. But surely there has to be a way to get on her good side, right?
  31. [21:25] <Kuji> <To be fair, there's no trigger on a weapon like that. And I didn't stab you at all.> Kuji turned the pages to read the interview of Chuck, the Fighting-type gym leader at a foreign region.
  32. [21:26] <Sara_Tosen> <it's not funny, you know...what were you thinking? They were two helpless boys! And you four treat them like terrorists!>
  33. 03[21:26] * castfromhp is now known as Kyubey
  34. [21:27] <Kuji> <Helpless boys who also had a weapon pointed at me. I'm pretty sure you aren't blind as well.>
  35. 03[21:27] * BigTentacruel is now known as StartWithoutTentacruel
  36. [21:27] <Sara_Tosen> <...>
  37. [21:28] <Plutonis> (I tried to solve it without violence :I)
  38. [21:28] <zoofman> (I danced the jig)
  39. 03[21:29] * Kyubey is now known as castfromhp
  40. [21:29] <Sara_Tosen> (I took a confuse ray to the face)
  41. [21:30] <Kuji> (I did too. Yeah, that's not how you make things passive.)
  42. [21:32] <Kuji> "..."
  43. [21:32] <Sara_Tosen> <That's all?>
  44. [21:33] <Kuji> <I'm done about what happened New Year's. Did you think I went off scot-free?>
  45. [21:33] <Sara_Tosen> <I certainly hope not.>
  46. [21:34] <Kuji> <Of course not. There were two others watching.>
  47. [21:35] <Sara_Tosen> <...well...you did potentially save my life. So I guess I should cut you some slack.> Sara stands up and stretches.
  48. [21:38] <Kuji> <...sorry for yelling at you. That was unbecoming of me...> All his life, he'd been taught the way of respect. He might as well put it to use sometime.
  49. [21:40] <Sara_Tosen> <sorry for acting like a total bitch. Maybe we can at least work together if the call goes out?> she offers a hand.
  50. [21:41] <Kuji> <Yeah. That'd be nice. It was a pleasure working with you. Let's do it again sometime." Kuji closed the magazine and stood up by himself, holding the magazine with one hand and Sara's hand in the other. "Wait, hold on. Waiter, check, please!"
  51. 02[21:42] * Plutonis (Plutonis@26ED8FE8.B3D55953.B65C4779.IP) Quit (Quit: )
  52. 01[21:42] <Trevor> (Wait, what? You're in a Library...)
  53. 03[21:42] * YellowYoshi (YellowYosh@sux-26D42B27.hsd1.ga.comcast.net) has joined #AlthoRegion
  54. [21:42] <Kuji> (As if they allow drinks inside the library.)
  55. [21:43] <zoofman> (THEY DO NOW)
  56. [21:44] <Sara_Tosen> It was a handshake. Not an offer to feel up her hand. A quick shake and that's the end of that.
  57. [21:44] <Kuji> (Goddamn me and my lack of description.)
  58. 06[21:45] * Kuji let go of Sara's hand to pay his tab, and he re-clutched Sara's hand. <So, where do you want to go?>
  59. [21:45] <Kuji> (inb4 he does that to every girl)
  60. 01[21:45] <Trevor> (You guys are going outside? Oh God... Cue horrible entrance?)
  61. [21:45] <Sara_Tosen> <dunno. Not from around here.> The girl takes her hand and puts it in her pocket. Not looking for that kind of guy.
  62. [21:46] <Kuji> Not looking for that kind of girl. Kuji placed his hand in his pocket and thought... <hm... how about the library? Gotta return this, after all.>
  63. [21:47] <Sara_Tosen> <works for me...> Sara will step outside.
  64. 06[21:48] * Kuji steps outside, breathing in the nice, cold air... <You warm?> he thought to her, remembering the time at the stadium.
  65. 01[21:49] <Trevor> (Now? :P)
  66. [21:49] <Sara_Tosen> <yeah...warm enough. I'm getting used to it.> her fairly thick coat probably did enough to keep her comfortable
  67. [21:49] <Sara_Tosen> (why not)
  68. 01[21:50] <Trevor> As Kuji and Sara step outside, the first thing that may (or may not) catch their eye is Trevor being dragged about by his leg like a ragdoll, his other two Pokemon and messenger bag scraping along the ground with him, by none other than Abe, who's chuckling in a creepy, elephant-ish way.
  69. 06[21:50] * Kuji pulls out a comforter from his bag anyways and wrapped it around Sara. <That'll do. Don't ask me about why I have it. Stupidpaycutduetobehaviormakingmesleepinthepoli-
  70. [21:51] <Kuji> "Trevor! How are you!"
  71. [21:52] <Sara_Tosen> The giant donphan charging was certainly hard to miss. As quick as she was able, Sara flattens herself against a wall and sends out Rocky to try and stop the rocky elephant.
  72. 01[21:52] <Trevor> "Abe, I'll say it once more. I insist that you..." He looks up after hearing his name. "Oh, hello there Kuji... And Sara..." He tries to not look like he wasn't screaming his head off at the rogue Donphan. "Funny running into you two here."
  73. 01[21:52] <Trevor> (Rocky is a... ?)
  74. [21:52] <Sara_Tosen> (Aron)
  75. [21:53] <Kuji> "Funny to see you here as well? Are you testing a new amusement park ride?"
  76. [21:53] <Sara_Tosen> (it's just standing there to tank a blow.)
  77. [21:53] <Sara_Tosen> (unless it's not running(
  78. 01[21:54] <Trevor> (It's just dragging Trevor around. Nothing big.)
  79. [21:54] <Sara_Tosen> (so not going fast? In that case...)
  80. 01[21:54] <Trevor> "I... Suppose one could say that." He chuckles nervously. "However, the ride seems to have malfunctioned like usual."
  81. [21:54] <Kuji> (Oh, look. I have to go soon.)
  82. 01[21:54] <Trevor> (It's not initiating combat, Sara. Nor do I intend to. :/)
  83. [21:55] <Sara_Tosen> (right.)
  84. [21:55] <Sara_Tosen> <hang on...you were the one from the dance contest right?>
  85. [21:56] <Kuji> <Dance cont- oh, right, the one the captain tried to stop.>
  86. [21:56] <Kuji> "Anyways, I have to get going. I'm going to be charged late fees anytime now!"
  87. 01[21:56] <Trevor> "Yes... I'm certain you remember Abe from there as well."
  88. 06[21:56] * Kuji dashes off to the library to return the book as quickly as he can.
  89. 01[21:56] <Trevor> He tugs at his leg with his one good arm in an attempt to pull himself free, but the Donphan, which has now stopped, holds a tight grip.
  90. 03[21:57] * Kuji is now known as Kujiabouttoleave
  91. 02[21:57] * Kujiabouttoleave (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) Quit (Quit: Leaving)
  92. 06[21:57] * Sara_Tosen points at her ear. She can't hear anything and although she doesn't like advertising it, it's the only way she will be able to communicate. <just think what you wanted to say.>
  93. 01[21:59] <Trevor> <Oh. My apologies.> Sara may or may not be surprised to find that her thoughts are returned in a similar manner.
  94. [22:01] <Sara_Tosen> She isn't. Most people figure it out quickly. Those who don't...tend to be dismissed quickly. <you need help with that donphan?>
  95. 01[22:01] <Trevor> <As I was saying before...> He points to Abe. <I suppose you may remember Abe from the contest as well... Though he managed to mature quite a bit after escaping my sight.>
  96. [22:02] <Sara_Tosen> <He's grown...doesn't seem like he matured any though.> Sara frowns. Something seems off.
  97. [22:02] <Sara_Tosen> <has anything weird happened in the past hour?>
  98. 01[22:03] <Trevor> (You mean Clairsentient powers?)
  99. 01[22:04] <Trevor> <Weird? Considering Abe's behavior over the past week, I'm unfortunately starting to become accustomed to this mischief... He's been at this for quite some time now.>
  100. [22:04] <Sara_Tosen> (yeah. She doesn't know he is one as well)
  101. 01[22:05] <Trevor> (Nor does he want her to know. He already feels a bit uncomfortable around her.)
  102. [22:05] <Sara_Tosen> (okay)
  103. [22:06] <Sara_Tosen> <huh...well that's a bit out of range for me...but if you will let me try?>
  104. 01[22:07] <Trevor> <I'm not quite sure there's anything to try, aside from possibly removing my leg from Abe's grip, but if you think yourself capable, then feel free to assist.>
  105. [22:08] <Sara_Tosen> <well, let's try that then.> Sara looks at how the Donphan has its trainer gripped.
  106. 01[22:08] <Trevor> (Hour's Past?)
  107. [22:09] <Sara_Tosen> (currently she is only looking at how he's tied up)
  108. 01[22:10] <Trevor> The Donphan's grip is merely its trunk wrapped around Trevor's right leg. It looks quite tight and, frankly, painful.
  109. [22:10] <Sara_Tosen> <how did this happen?>
  110. 01[22:10] <Trevor> (You can use Hour's Past on this if you want.)
  111. [22:11] <Sara_Tosen> (I know. But she wants to hear what he can deduce)
  112. [22:12] <Sara_Tosen> <like, did he just pick you up or something?>
  113. 01[22:13] <Trevor> <He's a Donphan. I'm a rather undersized person. I'm somewhat hoping, for fear of embarrassing myself, that I don't need to explain what followed...>
  114. [22:13] <Sara_Tosen> <of course. But as to why...maybe that I can answer.>
  115. 01[22:13] <Trevor> (Sorry that took so long... Was trying to figure out a way to say that that wouldn't insult Sara's intelligence.)
  116. [22:14] <Sara_Tosen> It must seem odd, two teenagers looking at each other like this and not saying a word. Still, Sara closes her eyes, trying to draw into those abilities she has so recently acquired.
  117. [22:16] <Sara_Tosen> Before too long, an unnatural chill swept through the girl's body. Opening her eyes, Trevor could see they were glazed over, almost as if she's in a daze (Hour's past)
  118. 01[22:16] <Trevor> Among the scrambled mess of images Sara sees, there's a lot of Trevor just being dragged around various parts of the city. Occasionally Donphan uses Trevor to bludgeon away the Pachirisu and Teddiursa that were trying to help him escape the tyrannical Donphan's grip.
  119. 01[22:16] <Trevor> She sees nothing of the act of Donphan actually getting Trevor ensnared in his grip. Clearly it's been entertaining itself for quite some time with this act.
  120. [22:17] <Sara_Tosen> Well...that's just right here. Perhaps she can tail the donphan's activities to find when and where the deed happened?
  121. [22:17] <Sara_Tosen> 1d20+5 image tailing
  122. 01[22:18] <Trevor> (Oh... Thought you were using Hour's Past on Trevor or the Donphan. Not the location... Durr.)
  123. [22:18] <Sara_Tosen> (you have to use it on a location)
  124. 03[22:18] * DiceMaid-9001 (DiceMaid-9@sux-EADD5C74) has joined #AlthoRegion
  125. 01[22:18] <Trevor> (Or an item. Could have been an item on Trevor's person, perhaps his blazer?)
  126. 01[22:19] <Trevor> (Roll for Image Tailing again)
  127. [22:19] <Sara_Tosen> 1d20+5 image tail
  128. [22:19] <DiceMaid-9001> Sara_Tosen, image tail: 18 [1d20=13]
  129. 01[22:19] <Trevor> (Is that a pass?)
  130. [22:19] <Sara_Tosen> (she can follow a mile of donphan shenanigans)
  131. [22:19] <Sara_Tosen> (dc is 15)
  132. 01[22:20] <Trevor> (Forgot if it was 15 or 20)
  133. 01[22:21] <Trevor> (If you know how to flavor Image Tailing, it's pretty much been walking around in a circle around a few blocks for the past ... Long enough to see him actually grab Trevor's cane from beneath him, causing him to fall to the ground, at which point he made off with him.)
  134. [22:21] <Sara_Tosen> The donphan...sure it was moving. But she could chase it. It's just a spectral image, right? Can't possibly attack her. Hopefully Trevor will keep her out of any danger
  135. [22:22] <Sara_Tosen> <...?>
  136. 01[22:23] <Trevor> <Is... There a problem?> He looks up from his position, which is pretty much the only way he could look up, being dragged on his back.
  137. [22:23] <Sara_Tosen> <a cane...yours?>
  138. [22:23] <Sara_Tosen> Her voice seems distant. Like she isn't entirely there.
  139. 01[22:24] <Trevor> <My cane? Well, after Abe had swept it away from...> He then looks back at Sara, substantially confused at how she knew that.
  140. [22:25] <Sara_Tosen> <do you still have it?> if her tailing is right, it should be around here.
  141. [22:26] <Sara_Tosen> The fact that her eyes are a glassy green should indicate something is going on.
  142. 03[22:27] * KujiUn (Kotodes@sux-3B675EB7.lv.lv.cox.net) has joined #AlthoRegion
  143. 01[22:27] <Trevor> <No, it's... I lost track of it shortly after he...> He can't help but stare into Sara's eyes as they glew. Something just WASN'T right.
  144. [22:28] <Sara_Tosen> The girl keeps walking. She can see where he dropped it. <it's...there?> sara points to where her postcognitive vision has the cane resting after the Donphan took off.
  145. 03[22:28] * KujiUn is now known as Kuji
  146. 06[22:28] * Kuji ran back to the cafe, waving at both Sara and Trevor. "HI GUYS!"
  147. 01[22:29] <Trevor> (Which side of Trevor would the cane be on? Like, which arm would it be closer to? :P)
  148. [22:29] <Sara_Tosen> They are probably a few blocks away from the cafe. And right arm)
  149. 06[22:30] * Kuji ran past the cafe, seeing that they weren't there, until he saw the two. "HI GUYS! AGAIN."
  150. [22:30] <Sara_Tosen> <...>
  151. [22:30] <Kuji> "Sara's being silent again, isn't she."
  152. 01[22:30] <Trevor> Trevor looks up at where Sara pointed to, then sees that his cane is in fact there. <Oh, right... There.> He lifts his left arm up, throwing it over his side to point at it. <Oh, and hello again, Kuji.>
  153. 01[22:31] <Trevor> ( . . . FUCK. xD )
  154. [22:31] <Kuji> (Trevor is a telepath as well?)
  155. [22:31] <Sara_Tosen> (psychic/clairsentient/researcher)
  156. 01[22:31] <Trevor> (Yup.)
  157. 01[22:32] <Trevor> (Just wait a sec.)
  158. 01[22:32] <Trevor> <Sorry to be a burden, but could you fetch my cane over there? I'd retrieve it myself, but Abe makes that rather impossible at the moment.> He doesn't seem to really be that focused at Kuji, just gazing into Sara's eyes with a look of concern.
  159. [22:33] <Sara_Tosen> Out of chance, Sara turns in Kuji's direction. She doesn't seem to recognize he is there. The fact that her eyes look glassy, almost like she is hypnotized, should clue him in that something is up.
  160. 01[22:33] <Trevor> (Cue Kuji's "WTF" face.)
  161. [22:34] <Kuji> <...>
  162. [22:34] <Kuji> <YOU'RE A PSYCHIC TOO!?>
  163. [22:34] <Kuji> <WITCHES AND BORES, EVERYWHERE!"
  164. [22:34] <Kuji> <But yeah, sure.>
  165. 06[22:35] * Kuji grabs the cane and hands it to Trevor. "Couldn't you just tele-move it to you?"
  166. 01[22:35] <Trevor> Trevor looks up at Kuji, then realizes... "Well, this is rather awkward. Moreso than the usual."
  167. [22:35] <Sara_Tosen> It's probably really good that sara can't hear their thoughts. She's too focused with her vision.
  168. [22:36] <Kuji> "So, what's up with her?"
  169. 02[22:36] * StartWithoutTentacruel (Tentacruel@sux-ECDFEFD1.hsd1.ga.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
  170. [22:36] <Kuji> "Is she having a moment again?"
  171. 01[22:36] <Trevor> " . . . I prefer not to make use of it in public," he says, rather sheepishly.
  172. 01[22:37] <Trevor> "I'm . . . Not quite sure." <Seems she's capable of probing into others' memories quite competently.>
  173. [22:37] <Sara_Tosen> <is it not there?> Sara's voice sounds...off. Not cold like she had been previously. More like she wasn't there.
  174. [22:38] <Sara_Tosen> She can see where it was...if it's still there, she will try calling the cane to her hands.
  175. [22:38] <Kuji> <Hm. Weird. At least she isn't like my last girlfriend.> Kuji shuddered at the thought.
  176. 01[22:38] <Trevor> <No, Kuji's brought it over, thankfully.>
  177. 01[22:38] <Trevor> (Did Kuji have a psychic girlfriend, too?)
  178. [22:39] <Kuji> (Yes. Before he left for training.)
  179. [22:39] <Sara_Tosen> <Kuji?> A blink. Her eyes were normal again.
  180. [22:39] <Kuji> <Oh, good! You're alright!>
  181. [22:39] <Sara_Tosen> <was I...not?> She seems confused.
  182. [22:39] <Kuji> <Well, according to my opinion.>
  183. 01[22:40] <Trevor> "Admittedly... Not so much."
  184. [22:41] <Sara_Tosen> <I...oh. I assume you saw my eyes? I understand it can be...disconcerting.>
  185. [22:41] <Kuji> <Of course. That was a little freaky...>
  186. 01[22:42] <Trevor> "Just a little..."
  187. [22:42] <Kuji> A memory comes up to Kuji's mind... a girl, around Sara's age, with the exact same eyes, staring into Kuji's eyes themselves...
  188. 01[22:42] <Trevor> ( What's with us all and having bad experiences with Psychics?!? ;A; )
  189. [22:42] <Sara_Tosen> <apparently it happens when I try using my postcognitive abilities...it makes sense, I guess. I'm not seeing the world as it is, only how it was.>
  190. [22:43] <Kuji> <Post? If I recall correctly, post-something usually means in the future.>
  191. [22:43] <Sara_Tosen> (audino~)
  192. 01[22:44] <Trevor> "Perhaps she's referring to it as postcognitive, for she's referring to it after it's already occured. Perhaps much like the postgame of a sporting event?"
  193. [22:44] <Sara_Tosen> <post means after. I see things after they've happened.>
  194. 01[22:44] <Trevor> "Though that... Might not entirely be an accurate comparison. I don't have any familiarity with sports myself."
  195. [22:44] <Kuji> <Oh, sorry.>
  196. [22:45] <Kuji> "No idea either. Well, not the ones where you don't get to punch someone out."
  197. [22:45] <Sara_Tosen> <in any case...you got the book you wanted?>
  198. [22:45] <Kuji> <Huh?>
  199. [22:45] <Kuji> <No, I was just returning my magazine...>
  200. [22:46] <Sara_Tosen> <Oh...I thought you were getting a new book. Apologies.> Sara cocks her head
  201. 01[22:46] <Trevor> (brb a sec)
  202. [22:47] <Kuji> (And now I have to go eat dinner. Great timing, friend!)
  203. [22:47] <Kuji> <No problem. In fact, I think I'm going to go- what time is it?>
  204. [22:48] <Kuji> <And who cares? I'm going to go try that diner place!>
  205. 06[22:48] * Kuji runs off again
  206. [22:48] <Sara_Tosen> <it's...uh...> Sara pulls up a sleeve to look at her watch. <a little after two...>
  207. [22:48] <Sara_Tosen> <He left...>
  208. 01[22:48] <Trevor> (Back. And also, does anyone not find it weird in-character that we're just walking along with a Donphan traveling backwards and dragging Trevor, who's also got two Pokemon clinging onto him for dear life?)
  209. [22:49] <Sara_Tosen> (Sara tends to take weirdness in stride. Comes with being in the position she is)
  210. 01[22:49] <Trevor> "He's... Quite quick to be on the move, it seems."
  211. [22:50] <Sara_Tosen> <maybe the donphan would be better served in its pokeball? It seems to be annoying for you otherwise.>
  212. 01[22:51] <Trevor> "Abe's commandeered the PokeBall. I doubt I'll be likely to see its return any time soon."
  213. 01[22:51] <Trevor> He points to Donphan's mouth. In between its gums and teeth, you can see something red glistening inside.
  214. [22:51] <Sara_Tosen> (is trevor talking to Sara's face?)
  215. 01[22:52] <Trevor> (Who else would he be talking to? :P)
  216. [22:52] <Sara_Tosen> (well if she isn't looking directly at him she can't read his lips)
  217. 01[22:52] <Trevor> (Well, as "to her face" as she is looking at him.)
  218. [22:53] <Sara_Tosen> (okay)
  219. [22:53] <Sara_Tosen> <if it were put to sleep...perhaps I could try extricating it?>
  220. 01[22:54] <Trevor> "Perhaps so..." He looks back up at Abe, who just keeps dragging, with not a care as to who or what it bumps into. It seems to be mowing a path for Trevor and Sara to walk through.
  221. [22:55] <Sara_Tosen> <you want me to try?>
  222. 01[22:56] <Trevor> "Well, I don't suppose there's much more that can go wrong..."
  223. 01[22:56] <Trevor> (Sleep Powder or Hypnosis?)
  224. 01[22:56] <Trevor> (Or other/)
  225. 06[22:56] * Sara_Tosen grasps a pokeball and opens it...but nothing seems to come out.
  226. [22:56] <Sara_Tosen> (hypnosis from her currently invisible sigilyph)
  227. [22:57] <Sara_Tosen> 1d20 hypnosis from behind, breaking invisibility
  228. [22:57] <DiceMaid-9001> Sara_Tosen, hypnosis from behind, breaking invisibility: 13 [1d20=13]
  229. [22:58] <Sara_Tosen> (hits barring shenanigans)
  230. 01[22:58] <Trevor> "I... Hope that was just an empty ball you grabbed by mistake," he says, a bit concerned by the nothingness emerging.
  231. 01[22:58] <Trevor> (Doesn't Hypnosis have to be a frontwards attack?)
  232. 01[22:58] <Trevor> (Can't exactly hypnotize someone that isn't looking.)
  233. [22:58] <Sara_Tosen> (point)
  234. 01[22:59] <Trevor> (Then you have your shenanigans. >:P)
  235. [22:59] <castfromhp> (I think it works regardless - it's just waves of energy that make something sleepy. Otherwise against ghosts you could just be all "lol I'm closing my eyes")
  236. [22:59] <Sara_Tosen> <watch closely> Sara has a smirk on her face. Suddenly, a totem like pokemon appears in front of the donphan and tells it to go to sleep.
  237. 01[22:59] <Trevor> (The "Close Your Eyes" feature DOES work on Hypnosis IIRC)
  238. 01[23:00] <Trevor> (Looking this up to see how realistic impending shenanigans would be.)
  239. [23:00] <Sara_Tosen> (let's just say it does it in front)
  240. 01[23:01] <Trevor> The Sigilyph, bursting in front of Donphan, causes it to jump up, causing its trunk to fly up into the air... However, it loses its grip as its consciousness rapidly fades away, causing Trevor to be launched into the air as a result.
  241. 06[23:01] * Sara_Tosen offers him a hand up as the sigilyph works its magic.
  242. [23:01] <Sara_Tosen> <you okay?>
  243. 01[23:02] <Trevor> While he wasn't launched terribly high skywards...
  244. 01[23:02] <Trevor> 1d20+3
  245. [23:02] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, 1d20+3: 20 [1d20=17]
  246. 01[23:02] <Trevor> It still hurt a good deal.
  247. 01[23:02] <Trevor> (Right or left hand that she's holding out?)
  248. [23:03] <Sara_Tosen> (lwhichever one doesn't have the cane)
  249. 01[23:04] <Trevor> Trevor... Looks up at Sara, then quickly shifts hands with the cane. He awkwardly twists his arm so that he can get it in Sara's grip appropriately, hoping that she can manage to actually pull him up.
  250. [23:05] <Sara_Tosen> He isn't that heavy. Telekinesis helps. Speaking of which...
  251. [23:05] <Sara_Tosen> <I'm gonna see if I can pull the ball out of his mouth.>
  252. 01[23:06] <Trevor> (Roll a WIS check. It might be hard to see, and Telekinesis doesn't work on objects normally without a line of sight.)
  253. [23:06] <Sara_Tosen> 1d20+1
  254. [23:06] <DiceMaid-9001> Sara_Tosen, 1d20+1: 15 [1d20=14]
  255. 06[23:06] * Kuji quickly skids back. <Line was full.>
  256. 01[23:07] <Trevor> Sara can barely see the PokeBall, almost completely submerged in the inner linings of Abe's jaws.
  257. 01[23:08] <Trevor> "Oh, um... Thank you, Sara," he says as he gets pulled back up to his feet.
  258. [23:08] <Sara_Tosen> <let's see if I can pry it out...> Sara makes a fist and tries to pull the ball out of the jaws of the donphan.
  259. [23:09] <Sara_Tosen> 1d20+6 force of telekinesis
  260. [23:09] <DiceMaid-9001> Sara_Tosen, force of telekinesis: 24 [1d20=18]
  261. 01[23:09] <Trevor> Without a terrible deal of effort, the ball slips out of Donphan's mouth. It's... Rather slobber-coated. Wouldn't be a good idea to touch that.
  262. [23:09] <Kuji> <What are you doing, Sara?>
  263. [23:09] <Sara_Tosen> <getting that pokeball back...you got a towel?>
  264. [23:10] <Kuji> <Uh... you still have that comforter, right?>
  265. 01[23:10] <Trevor> "Oh, thank you..." He pulls out a handkerchief tucket into the front pocket of his blazer and starts wiping down the PokeBall.
  266. [23:10] <Sara_Tosen> <duct tape.> Sara handed back the comforter almost as soon as she got it. Wasn't needed.
  267. 06[23:11] * Kuji grabbed some duct tape from his backpack and handed it to Sara. <There you go.>
  268. 06[23:12] * Kuji grabbed the comforter back and folded it quickly.
  269. 01[23:12] <Trevor> (Duct tape? Wut?)
  270. [23:13] <Kuji> (Good question.)
  271. 01[23:13] <Trevor> (That doesn't seem like the thing you'd just HAVE.)
  272. [23:13] <Kuji> (Oh, well, I'm a police officer.)
  273. 06[23:13] * Sara_Tosen tears off a piece and hands it to Trevor. <if you don't plan on having the Donphan out, Keep its pokeball shut. Use this if you have to.>
  274. [23:14] <Kuji> (That, and I'm not literally living off of a public place.)
  275. [23:14] <Kuji> (-not)
  276. 01[23:14] <Trevor> "That was... Oddly convenient, Kuji... And that's rather extreme, don't you think?"
  277. [23:14] <Sara_Tosen> <you do what needs to be done.> Sara just shrugs.
  278. [23:15] <Kuji> "Shutting the Pokeball shut? I suppose."
  279. [23:15] <Kuji> (I... suppose, yeah!)
  280. [23:15] <Kuji> (OHGODRHYTHMHEAVEN)
  281. 01[23:16] <Trevor> "As much of an inconvenience as Abe's shenanigans may be to me, he's still my Pokemon. I don't believe it best to risk turning his playful antics into ones of malicious intent."
  282. [23:16] <Kuji> "What are you talking about?"
  283. [23:16] <Sara_Tosen> <I'm confused as well,>
  284. 01[23:18] <Trevor> He hands Kuji back his duct tape. "I'd rather not risk provoking Abe into trampling me on a later date."
  285. [23:18] <Sara_Tosen> <you aren't locking him in there like a prisoner - only use the tape for when you can't have him romping around. Surely he won't get mad at you for *that!>
  286. [23:19] <Kuji> "Ah... alright..." Kuji takes back his duct tape... and tapes it over Trevor's forehead. "I already took it out, no use putting it back in."
  287. 01[23:20] <Trevor> "It's still not something I'd have to-" He attempts to swat away Kuji's attempt to place the duct tape on his forehead... With his right arm. Surely this isn't going to end well.
  288. [23:20] <Sara_Tosen> <either way. Train your donphan to stay put. It's bad for everybody if it can get loose and cause a rampage whenever it wants.>
  289. 01[23:20] <Trevor> 1d20-8
  290. [23:20] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, 1d20-8: 7 [1d20=15]
  291. [23:21] <Kuji> (...do I have to oppose that roll?)
  292. 01[23:21] <Trevor> (Please do.)
  293. 03[23:21] * StartWithoutTentacruel (Tentacruel@sux-1DC5DF11.hsd1.ga.comcast.net) has joined #AlthoRegion
  294. [23:21] <Kuji> 1d20+10 strong enough to not be fazed by the swatting attempt
  295. [23:21] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, strong enough to not be fazed by the swatting attempt: 15 [1d20=5]
  296. 03[23:22] * StartWithoutTentacruel is now known as BigTentacruel
  297. 01[23:22] <Trevor> Trevor's attempt to swat Kuji's arms away prove to be so futile that... A clacking of plastic can be heard on the ground.
  298. [23:23] <Kuji> ...
  299. [23:23] <Kuji> 1d20-4
  300. [23:23] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, 1d20-4: -3 [1d20=1]
  301. 06[23:23] * Sara_Tosen hears nothing :v
  302. 06[23:23] * Kuji just doesn't care at the moment.
  303. [23:23] <Kuji> Too busy applying tape to forehead.
  304. 01[23:24] <Trevor> He looks down at the ground, a bit more panicked by the noise than by the fact that he now has a shiny silver streak of duct tape on his forehead, then back at Sara and Kuji.
  305. 01[23:24] <Trevor> (His arm fell out.)
  306. [23:24] <Kuji> 1d20 sensitivity training
  307. [23:24] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, sensitivity training: 14 [1d20=14]
  308. [23:25] <Kuji> "Hm, what's wrong?" he said, following his gaze to whatever Trevor was looking at.
  309. [23:25] <Kuji> 1d20-4
  310. [23:25] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, 1d20-4: 2 [1d20=6]
  311. 06[23:25] * Sara_Tosen just stands there, her head held in her left hand. Why did they have to act so...immature?
  312. [23:25] <Kuji> "...isn't that the thing Abe was playing with?"
  313. 01[23:26] <Trevor> His face is glowing stop light red.
  314. [23:26] <Kuji> <...Sara, what is this?>
  315. [23:27] <Sara_Tosen> <what is what?> she will actually look now, although she isn't sure what she is looking at.
  316. [23:27] <Kuji> Kuji gestured to the... thing on the ground.
  317. 01[23:27] <Trevor> "Umm... Uhh..." He's frozen up in place, not exactly knowing what to do or how to react. This doesn't happen to him all that often, but...
  318. [23:27] <Kuji> 1d20-2 INT check...
  319. [23:27] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, INT check...: 12 [1d20=14]
  320. [23:28] <Kuji> "...is that an arm?"
  321. [23:28] <Sara_Tosen> 1d20+6 int
  322. [23:28] <DiceMaid-9001> Sara_Tosen, int: 14 [1d20=8]
  323. 01[23:28] <Trevor> Sara looks down and sees... A plastic arm. Likely that of a mannequin's.
  324. [23:28] <Sara_Tosen> <a prosthetic arm.>
  325. [23:28] <Kuji> "Why would Trevor need a plastic arm?"
  326. [23:28] <Kuji> 1d20-2 memory check
  327. [23:28] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, memory check: 15 [1d20=17]
  328. [23:29] <Kuji> "..."
  329. 06[23:29] * Kuji glances at Trevor's arms...
  330. [23:29] <Kuji> "OH! I GET IT NOW!"
  331. [23:29] <Sara_Tosen> <likely got the first one torn off, cut off, something. I tend to not ask questions.>
  332. [23:29] <Sara_Tosen> <it isn't my place to pry into people and their memories.>
  333. [23:30] <Kuji> <Yeah, I wouldn't ask either.>
  334. 01[23:30] <Trevor> Trevor covers his face with his one remaining hand as he slinks downwards., attempting to grab the arm.. Then realizes he can't exactly grab his arm with the arm that's on the ground... Only making the situation even
  335. 01[23:30] <Trevor> even worse than it already is in his mind.
  336. [23:31] <Kuji> <...yeah... you wanna go line up for that diner?>
  337. 06[23:31] * Sara_Tosen has the arm in her hand thanks to a little telekinetic magic. "does it..:just pop in?>
  338. [23:31] <Sara_Tosen> <I think I'll pass.> Sara says flatly, wondering how to reattach the arm.
  339. 01[23:32] <Trevor> "Umm... Yeah, it's, uh... Could you just, uh..." He's tripping over his own words at this point.
  340. [23:32] <Sara_Tosen> <yeah.> Sara will study the socket and make sure she is inserting it right before doing anything
  341. [23:32] <Sara_Tosen> 1d20+6 which end goes where?
  342. [23:32] <DiceMaid-9001> Sara_Tosen, which end goes where?: 14 [1d20=8]
  343. 01[23:32] <Trevor> He fumbles about with his blazer in an attempt to remove it.. Which is expectedly difficult due to the lack of a second arm to remove it.
  344. 01[23:33] <Trevor> "Just, uh... I need help with..." Visible frustration is quite visible.
  345. 06[23:33] * Sara_Tosen helps with that as well. It's about respect. Give a damn about people and they will treat you well.
  346. [23:34] <Kuji> "Here, Trevor." Kuji grabbed the arm sleeve of his own shirt, and with one swift motion, takes his shirt off. "Now you try it."
  347. 01[23:34] <Trevor> ( . . . Did he just . . . ? )
  348. 06[23:34] * Kuji put the shirt back on quickly.
  349. 06[23:34] * Sara_Tosen shoots Kuji a glare and quickly turns back to Trevor not something she needed to see...
  350. 02[23:35] * Ramiel|Terminal_Dogma (chatzilla@sux-A23F54CF.lightspeed.wchtks.sbcglobal.net) Quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.86.1 [Firefox 3.6.3/20100401080539])
  351. [23:35] <Kuji> (Yes, you can do it with one arm.)
  352. 01[23:35] <Trevor> "Thank you, Sara... It's just... Plug it back in there, and..." It's literally a mannequin arm. You could stick it in the hole in his shoulder, which seems to have been adjusted such that it could be fitted properly.
  353. [23:36] <castfromhp> (mind if I just jump in?)
  354. [23:36] <Sara_Tosen> She does so quickly and painlessly. As cool as it would be for her to have also made it easier to move and use, she isn't *that* good yet.
  355. [23:36] <Sara_Tosen> (don't see why not)
  356. 01[23:36] <Trevor> (Wynaut? I don't think anyone else would have objections..)
  357. [23:37] <Kuji> (No objections.)
  358. [23:37] <castfromhp> (first, where are you guys? Just in the streets, right?)
  359. [23:37] <Kuji> (Yep.)
  360. 01[23:37] <Trevor> (Just in the streets. You choose if you just saw the awkward or not.)
  361. 03[23:37] * castfromhp is now known as Camellia
  362. [23:37] <~Garlyle> (He might not be the only one, but I'm gonna wait and see if I can find a better time to come in if any)
  363. [23:37] <Sara_Tosen> (sigilyph is still about)
  364. [23:38] <Zuphyr> (Oh hey Gar.)
  365. 01[23:38] <Trevor> "Ah... Uh... Thanks again..."
  366. [23:39] <Sara_Tosen> <just promise me one thing, okay?>
  367. 01[23:39] <Trevor> Trevor then attempts to get his blazer back on... It's a bit slow, and you can see his mannequin arm moving about, albeit somewhat rigidly, as he does so.
  368. 01[23:40] <Trevor> "And ... what would that be?"
  369. [23:40] <Kuji> "What would what be?"
  370. 06[23:41] * Camellia is meandering down the street, followed by a cloud of omgwtf. "Well, it's great I haven't had a call in a while, but this city's actually pretty dull now that New Year's is over..." 3 <After you got all sappy with the clown on the last one, I'd be surprised if they gave you any more. He had some delicious dreams I could've eaten.>
  371. [23:41] <Sara_Tosen> Trevor hears a request thats far from unreasonable.
  372. 01[23:41] <Trevor> (Which is . . . ?)
  373. [23:41] <Kuji> (...is that <> meaning telepathy speak?)
  374. [23:41] <Camellia> (it's aura)
  375. 01[23:41] <Trevor> (That's the Spiritomb, I suppose.)
  376. [23:42] <Camellia> (I...don't know how aura works in Altho-world. Gaaabe?)
  377. [23:42] <Kuji> (Oh, alright.)
  378. [23:42] <Kuji> "Another psychic? Everyone's a psychic here!?"
  379. [23:42] <Sara_Tosen> <I'm not getting anything...>
  380. 06[23:43] * Camellia takes notice of the one person she recognizes from the scene. "Oh hey Trevor. You're still in town?"
  381. 01[23:43] <Trevor> <I'm sure he can... do that plenty fine... Assuming he doesn't just use me as the battering ram.> He tries to chuckle nervously.
  382. 01[23:43] <Trevor> (Did you choose for Camellia to see the mess?)
  383. [23:43] <Camellia> Hm. 1d2 yes/no
  384. [23:43] <Camellia> 1d2
  385. [23:43] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, 1d2: 1 [1d2=1]
  386. [23:44] <Sara_Tosen> (aura and telepathy work on separate circuits. Its why you can't mindread pokemon with basic telepathy)
  387. [23:44] <~Garlyle> (I... I really am not sure yet how it works within Altho rules. I'm hesitant to make a ruling too, so for now whatever; but if/when I rule something else later, please don't complain etc)
  388. [23:44] <Camellia> "Are you okay there?" Camellia looks a bit shocked at what happened and ran over for a look.
  389. 01[23:45] <Trevor> Trevor then jumps up anxiously as he hears his name called once again. He turns to the voice to see Camellia "Oh, hello... again..." He looks a bit discouraged, seeing that she most likely saw the mess that unfurled.
  390. 06[23:45] * Sara_Tosen turns to the new person. <"He'll be fine. You are?">
  391. [23:45] <Kuji> (... how about Aura-speakers us ^^ instead of <>?)
  392. [23:45] <Camellia> 3 <Looks like he needs a hand. Hehehe.>
  393. [23:45] <zoofman> (SOOOO MANY WIZZARRDS)
  394. [23:45] <zoofman> (and witches.)
  395. [23:45] <Kuji> (...I'm not a wizard.)
  396. [23:45] <Kuji> (OR AM I?)
  397. 01[23:45] <Trevor> (I can't wait 'til Jamal's eventual "Oh SHIT" moment with Trevor. I can imagine it to be quite amusing.)
  398. 06[23:46] * Camellia flinches a bit "oh no something's in my head ag- oh, it's you. Were you the one from New Year's too?" (can you recognize someone's telepathy voice?)
  399. [23:46] <Kuji> (*ponders about adding occult knowledge into Kuji*)
  400. [23:46] <Kuji> (Most likely.)
  401. [23:46] <Sara_Tosen> <"possibly...but I can't talk so...">
  402. [23:46] <Camellia> (facing you, so you can probably read lips)
  403. [23:46] <Camellia> (Okay, I'm going to use [ ] for aura from now on)
  404. [23:47] <~Garlyle> (...This might be something I rule differently on the future too, for the record, but that's because my concept of Telepathy is a little weird too)
  405. [23:47] <Sara_Tosen> (she can. And she's moving her lips despite an evident desynch between her mouth and her mind)
  406. [23:47] <Camellia> 3 [Is there someone you aren't going to be insensitive to today?]
  407. 06[23:48] * Kuji whistles, wondering what the others are saying. "It sure is mean to talk to others like that, you know."
  408. 06[23:48] * Camellia ignores the swirling cloud. <So...like this, right? I can't project myself, and it's been a long time since anyone's talked to me this way....> She definitely looks uneasy about this form of communication.
  409. [23:48] <Sara_Tosen> <It's all I have. You get used to it I suppose.> Sara offers the girl a handshake.
  410. [23:49] <Kuji> "..." Kuji coughs loudly, trying to get the other's attention.
  411. 06[23:50] * Camellia shakes Sara's hand. <Sorry, I've just had bad experiences with things in my head...> "Oh sorry, I didn't see you there for a second." She turns to face Kuji.
  412. [23:50] <Kuji> "Ah, good. Nice to meet you... uh... I'm Kuji, by the way."
  413. 01[23:50] <Trevor> Trevor, a bit aloof, turns over towards Kuji... "Yes, Kuji?"
  414. [23:50] <Sara_Tosen> <No hard feelings.> Sara doesn't take these things personally. Good thing, too.
  415. [23:51] <Camellia> 3 [There you go again. Ignoring people too.]
  416. [23:51] <Camellia> "Camellia. It's nice to meet you."
  417. [23:52] <Camellia> <...I never caught your name.>
  418. [23:52] <Kuji> "Yes! Camellia. That's a nice name you got there."
  419. [23:52] <Sara_Tosen> <My name's Sara. Sorry about the thing last week.>
  420. [23:52] <Camellia> <No, it's alright. I got dragged into some battles and nearly forgot about it anyway.>
  421. [23:53] <Camellia> "Thanks. Are you from around here? I'm a bit disappointed that there's so little to do now that new year's is over."
  422. 06[23:53] * Sara_Tosen will nod happily and take a step back. No need to interrupt the conversation. And from her perspective she can follow along well enough.
  423. [23:54] <Kuji> "Well, no, not exactly, but I've been here long enough to know my way around the city. Shall I show you around sometime?"
  424. 06[23:55] * Camellia is starting to seem noticably less tense. <Can we all speak to you like this and have you convey the conversation to everyone? Don't want to leave you out.>
  425. [23:56] <Camellia> "Ah, I think it's just I'm getting bored of the place. I don't usually spend quite this long in one place, so it's just a bit dull now."
  426. [23:56] <Sara_Tosen> <I'm fine, I can read the three of you from here.> She seems amiable enough given her disability.
  427. [23:57] <Kuji> "Oh, really? Huh. I'd move around myself, but my financial situation is a little tight..."
  428. [23:58] <Sara_Tosen> All the same, Sara slips a hand down into her jeans pocket, patting her pokedex. Just in case something were to happen...
  429. 01[23:58] <Trevor> ( Why so paranoid Charm? )
  430. 01[23:58] <Trevor> ( I doubt we're gonna get a missing RANDOMSPRUNG on us! )
  431. [23:58] <Camellia> 3 [Better take the train out soon. Maybe they'll fire you and you won't be able to ride the trains for free anymore. Ooh, that kid over there had the scary elephant, right?]
  432. [23:58] <Sara_Tosen> (because we are two rolls to a shiny.>
  433. 01[23:59] <Trevor> ( It works that way? :/ )
  434. 06[23:59] * Camellia momentarily glares at the spiritomb before sighing. "Yeah, it's a lifestyle. I've managed, somehow."
  435. Session Time: Fri May 27 00:00:00 2011
  436. 01[00:00] <Trevor> Trevor can't help but look up at the Spiritomb... "Is Abe... really that terrifying?"
  437. 06[00:00] * Kuji has a confused look on his face... "Who are you talking to?"
  438. [00:01] <Camellia> (okay, I think we should take a moment and decide how aura works. Is it one to one communication, or something that's broadcast for everyone to hear? And what happens if an aura'd pokemon is channeled?)
  439. 01[00:01] <Trevor> (oh shit.. Whoops.)
  440. [00:01] <Kuji> (I think Aura-talk is one to one.)
  441. 01[00:01] <Trevor> [Fuck. Dx]
  442. 01[00:01] <Trevor> (nix what I said then)
  443. 01[00:02] <Trevor> (Not exactly focused at the moment.)
  444. [00:02] <zoofman> (you'd def. have to ask Gabe about that.
  445. [00:02] <Camellia> (yeah, but we're just ad-hocing it for now since he said he'll make a ruling later)
  446. [00:03] <Camellia> 1d2 is oolong speaking to everyone?
  447. [00:03] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, is oolong speaking to everyone?: 1 [1d2=1]
  448. [00:03] <Camellia> (yeah, he doesn't give a fuck. He's projecting to everyone)
  449. 01[00:03] <Trevor> (Never mind then. Trevor's comment remains. And sorry 'bout that... Just a little bit out of it. My sleep patterns have been fucked up as all hell lately.)
  450. 01[00:04] <Trevor> (Not even two weeks done with college and I'm already horribly maimed that way. DAMN.)
  451. [00:04] <Kuji> "...maybe I should take the train out... try to find a better job."
  452. 06[00:05] * Camellia concentrates for a moment, closing her eyes. When they open, they have an ever so slight purple tinge to them, and she seems to be moving more in sync with the spiritomb. [oolong, don't be rude]3[Ahaha, you say that, but you would recall me if you actually cared. :3]
  453. [00:05] <Camellia> "Sorry, he's like that today. Told him that I'd enter him in some contests, and he wasn't too happy about it."
  454. 06[00:05] * Kuji frowns. "Well, that's kind of mean..."
  455. [00:06] <Sara_Tosen> <you shoulda been at the contest I got roped in to...>
  456. [00:07] <Kuji> "I did. Well, I was in charge of checking the papers. Well, that was the captain."
  457. 01[00:07] <Trevor> 'Something tells me I wouldn't want to be left alone in a room with him and Abe,' he thinks to himself, frowning a bit more.
  458. [00:07] <Camellia> "Aw, I'm sad I missed that. It was all battles during New Year's, and they don't allow the trainers to do anything during those."
  459. [00:07] <zoofman> (oolang and vodun would be bros4life.)
  460. [00:09] <Camellia> 3 [I'm glad I missed that. No matter what you say, I don't think I'd look good in a top hat and monocle. >:(]
  461. [00:09] <Kuji> "..."
  462. [00:10] <Kuji> 1d20-2 Imagination check

  466. 01[00:10] <Trevor> (Ill mannered, coming up?)
  467. 06[00:10] * Kuji laughed aloud at the thought... "BWAHAHAHE'DLOOKSOFUNNY!"
  468. [00:11] <Camellia> 3 [HEY! NOT MY IDEA!]
  469. [00:11] <Sara_Tosen> <No Comment.>
  470. 06[00:11] * Camellia gives a disappointed frown. "I thought he'd look classy."
  471. [00:12] <Kuji> 1d20 rudeness check #2
  472. [00:12] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, rudeness check #2: 4 [1d20=4]
  473. [00:12] <Camellia> "Trevor, you've met Oolong before, don't you think he'd look good in that?"
  474. [00:12] <Kuji> "YEAHRIGHTAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!"
  475. 01[00:12] <Trevor> "Well... I suppose we could find out this way..." He rummages a bit through his messenger bag, and pulls out the top hat he was wearing on New Year's.
  476. 06[00:13] * Kuji calmed down... "Oy... sorry."
  477. 06[00:13] * Camellia crosses her arms and turns away from Kuji. >:( "We'll see, once we get to a contest hall."
  478. [00:13] <Camellia> 3 [I'd rather die first. Again.]
  479. [00:13] <Kuji> "Even your Pokemon thinks that's a bad idea. Why don't you listen to it?"
  480. [00:14] <Camellia> "The others think it's a great idea!" Camellia unhooks a lanturn from her side and opens it to reveal a litwick inside. "Chammy, look ,there's a top hat we can give to Oolong. Don't you think it'd look great?"
  481. 01[00:15] <Trevor> (Chammy?)
  482. 01[00:15] <Trevor> (Oh God I LOVE that name on it :D)
  483. [00:15] <Camellia> The litwick nods enthusiastically as Camelllia takes the top hat from Trevor.
  484. [00:15] <Camellia> (short for Chamomile - all of her pokemon are named after types of tea)
  485. [00:15] <Kuji> "Hm... no."
  486. [00:15] <Camellia> 3 [Oh no you don't!] Oolong begins to slowly float away.
  487. 01[00:16] <Trevor> ( . . . Oolong is a type of tea? )
  488. [00:16] <Camellia> 1d20 hypnosis
  489. [00:16] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, hypnosis: 18 [1d20=18]
  490. [00:16] <Camellia> ...And it stops in its tracks and falls asleep as Camellia touches her necklace and giggles. "Can't let you do that!"
  491. [00:16] <Kuji> ...
  492. [00:16] <Camellia> (Oolong is a type of black tea, yeah)
  493. [00:16] <Kuji> "What did you do with him?"
  494. [00:17] <Sara_Tosen> <same thing I did to Abe, I guess.>
  495. [00:17] <Kuji> <You did what?>
  496. 01[00:17] <Trevor> "I have a bad feeling that he and Abe would get along exceptionally well off the battlefield."
  497. [00:17] <Camellia> "Ah, sorry, I have to do that sometimes. He gets unruly and rude, as you can see. He's just asleep." Camellia places the top hat on Oolong and gives him a glance from all sides. "Looks great!"
  498. [00:17] <Kuji> ...
  499. [00:18] <Kuji> 1d20 does it really look good?
  500. [00:18] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, does it really look good?: 6 [1d20=6]
  501. [00:18] <Sara_Tosen> <he just took a nap. He'll wake up no sweat. couldn't get the ball out with him thrashing about!>
  502. [00:18] <Kuji> 1d20 please don't be rude again
  503. [00:18] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, please don't be rude again: 7 [1d20=7]
  504. [00:18] <Kuji> ...
  505. [00:18] <Camellia> Chamomile floats out of the lanturn and gives a delighted squeal. "lit!"
  506. [00:18] <Kuji> "YEAH... That's definitely doesn't look good."
  507. 01[00:19] <Trevor> (How big IS a Spiritomb?)
  508. [00:19] <Camellia> "Oh what would you know? I've grown up all my life with ghost pokemon."
  509. [00:19] <Camellia> (it's...rather tall actually.)
  510. [00:19] <Kuji> 1m/3'3"
  511. [00:19] <Camellia> (oh actually just 3 feet ish)
  512. 06[00:19] * Sara_Tosen and Mistral the Sigilyph just stand back and watch it unfold.
  513. [00:19] <Camellia> "Wait til I get a monocle for him, then tell me what you think."
  514. 01[00:20] <Trevor> "Aren't you concerned he won't stay under until then?"
  515. [00:21] <Camellia> "Hm, I'm sure I could convince him by the time I find a contest hall. Where'd you get this hat by the way? It really fits Oolong." the floating litwick nods in agreement.
  516. 06[00:21] * Sara_Tosen starts sketching the scene. Perhaps the morning poring over art books would pay off?
  517. [00:21] <Camellia> 1d20 sleep check
  518. [00:21] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, sleep check: 1 [1d20=1]
  519. 01[00:22] <Trevor> "It's one of my own. I usually keep it on my person in the event of sudden formalities."
  520. [00:22] <Sara_Tosen> 1d20+1 art check?
  521. [00:22] <DiceMaid-9001> Sara_Tosen, art check?: 5 [1d20=4]
  522. [00:22] <Kuji> "Hm... he looks asleep."
  523. [00:22] <Camellia> "Yeah, I'm pretty good at that. From hanging out with so many ghosts I guess."
  524. 06[00:23] * Kuji takes a big yawn. "Man, I'm getting sleepy too..."
  525. 06[00:23] * Camellia carefully plucks the hat off of Oolong and returns it to Trevor. "Well, I guess I'll have to find a hat store then. Thanks for letting me borrow this."
  526. [00:23] <Sara_Tosen> <I could probably use a nap now that you mention it...>
  527. [00:25] <Sara_Tosen> (oh god I see it now: Black Hat Haberdasherers)
  528. 01[00:25] <Trevor> (Haberdasheries? Oh boy.)
  529. [00:25] <Camellia> 1d20
  530. [00:25] <Kuji> "...Camellia, does your sleepy thing have any side effects?"
  531. [00:25] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, 1d20: 15 [1d20=15]
  532. 01[00:26] <Trevor> (Oh boy.)
  533. [00:26] <Kuji> (Ohdear.)
  534. [00:27] <Camellia> As Kuji says this, Oolong stirs awake and just in time to see Camellia return the hat. 3 [Zzz- huh? You did it again! I should put YOU to sleep this time. Oh no, you didn't take a photo of this di- you there lady, did you sketch this? I won't sta-] 2 and he's returned to a pokeball.
  535. 01[00:27] <Trevor> "You're welcome." He then fumbles about trying to put the top hat back into his messenger bag.
  536. [00:27] <Camellia> "Not anymore than any pokemon's use of hypnosis. It does hurt a bit when I use it though..."
  537. [00:27] <Zuphyr> (How does a top hat even fit in a messenger bag
  538. [00:28] <Kuji> (Folding.)
  539. 01[00:28] <Trevor> (It pops in like a frisbee :P)
  540. 06[00:28] * Sara_Tosen 's sketch is nothing for the ghost to worry about. Stick figures don't make for really good art.
  541. [00:28] <Kuji> "...hm..."
  542. 01[00:28] <Trevor> (Stick figure Spiritomb. I wonder how that'd work.)
  543. [00:29] <Camellia> "He's right, I wish I had a camera."
  544. [00:29] <Zuphyr> (Ooh okay.)
  545. [00:30] <Kuji> "Anyways, no use staying here for long."
  546. [00:30] <Kuji> "What do you guys want to do?"
  547. 01[00:30] <Trevor> (If Abe and Spiritomb ever did meet up and sit down for a chat, they'd totally tag team and try to kick our asses, Camellia.)

  559. [00:31] <Camellia> <Buzzing?>
  560. [00:32] <Zuphyr> (Enter him in a Beauty Contest.)
  561. 01[00:32] <Trevor> (Do it!)
  562. 06[00:32] * Kuji slightly shakes Sara to simulate something buzzing.
  563. [00:32] <Sara_Tosen> <vibrating I guess is a more accurate word...but people stare at me funny when I use that word.>
  564. [00:32] <Camellia> (Sassy is actually great for smart, and spiritomb has a lot of smart moves, so....yeah)
  565. [00:33] <Zuphyr> (Hilarity > Practicality)
  566. [00:33] <Sara_Tosen> (interesting nature, +spec def - speed)
  567. [00:33] <Camellia> (I have a hilarious beauty modeler character in another game - He's a manly stereotypical Russian)
  568. [00:34] <Camellia> (I pretty much derped it up choosing all my pokemon's natures in Altho, so...yeah)
  569. [00:34] <Kuji> (Ah, yes...)
  570. [00:34] <Zuphyr> (Hahaha)
  571. [00:34] <Camellia> "Well, I was thinking of grabbing a snack or something to drink. Someone told me there was a good diner around here."
  572. [00:35] <Sara_Tosen> <In any case...have fun guys. Hasta mañana."> Sara turns to leave. But she isn't necessarily glad to have left. They are friends. She can trust them.
  573. [00:36] <Sara_Tosen> (I would continue but i really should sleep)
  574. [00:36] <Camellia> <Bye! See you around.>
  575. [00:36] <Sara_Tosen> <Sure thing Camellia. Was nice meeting you.>
  576. [00:36] <Kuji> <Bye, Sara.>
  577. [00:37] <Sara_Tosen> <later Kuji. Trevor? Try to keep Abe from stealing your cane.>
  578. 03[00:37] * Sara_Tosen is now known as Charm
  579. [00:38] <Kuji> "Ah, yes! Joe's Diner! I'd love to take you there!"
  580. 03[00:38] * Charm (Charm@sux-D295A927.hsd1.in.comcast.net) has left #AlthoRegion
  581. [00:38] <Kuji> "And it's dinner time, so free food for me!"
  582. [00:38] <Camellia> "Free food?" Camellia's eyes light up a bit.
  583. 01[00:38] <Trevor> Trevor had frozen up a bit, stopping midway into putting the top hat back into his cane. He then jumps up as Sara called out to him. "Oh, er... Right... Until next time, Sara..." He then goes back to what he had doing previously.
  584. [00:38] <Kuji> "Oh, yeah... I wonder if they let you share..."
  585. 06[00:41] * Camellia spies Trevor's cane. "Oh I need to get one of those for Oolong too. How would he carry it though? Maybe if I taught him something to let him move objects telekinetically..."
  586. 01[00:41] <Trevor> (Oh God. Why don't we just give Oolong Trevor's underwear while we're at it? xD)
  587. [00:42] <Camellia> (Camellia would put Oolong in a suit if that actually made any sense at all)
  588. 02[00:42] * zoofman (durrhurr@sux-D3486381.hsd1.va.comcast.net) Quit (Quit: )
  589. [00:43] <Zuphyr> (Top hat back into his cane. I laughed.)
  590. 01[00:43] <Trevor> "I'd... Rather not trust Oolong with my cane."
  591. [00:43] <Camellia> "I'd buy my own of course."
  592. [00:43] <Kuji> "...at least your Pokemon can speak to you."
  593. [00:44] <Camellia> "It's only Oolong. With Chammy, it's a lot harder." At hearing her name, the litwick pops out of the lanturn for a second.
  594. 01[00:44] <Trevor> He pulls something off of the bottom of the cane, revealing... HOLY CRAP IS THAT A HARPOON? "It's... For defensive measures, if necessary."
  595. [00:45] <Camellia> (how old is trevor again?)
  596. 01[00:45] <Trevor> He then quickly conceals it. "So it'd be in my best interest for Oolong not to come into possession."
  597. 06[00:45] * Kuji takes out his halberd and readies it. "WHAT THE HECK TREVOR!?"
  598. 01[00:45] <Trevor> (He's fourteen.)
  599. 06[00:45] * Camellia quickly steps back at seeing both of the people she just met suddenly whip out weapons. "W-why would a kid like you need something like that Trevor?"
  600. [00:46] <Kuji> (...didn't anyone get the memo NOT to pull out weapons in front of him?)
  601. 01[00:46] <Trevor> "My father was rather paranoid about me travelling on my own. He insisted that I bring some form of protection."
  602. [00:47] <Camellia> "...isn't Abe enough?"
  603. [00:47] <Kuji> "..." Kuji sheathed his halberd back on his back. "...fine."
  604. 01[00:47] <Trevor> His eyes roll in the back of his head as he says that. "Father would think that Abe alone is reason enough if he found out he evolved."
  605. 01[00:47] <Trevor> (Also, Trevor wasn't there for that memo. xP)
  606. [00:49] <Kuji> "...I'd have to agree with him on that account."
  607. [00:49] <Camellia> "I've met so many...interesting people in this city. Maybe I should stay longer after all." There's a small jittering motion from the lanturn as Chamomile shakes her head furiously.
  608. 01[00:50] <Trevor> (Day 1 : He seems like a perfectly normal, sensible kid. Day 2 : Oh my god he has only one arm and he carries a retractable HARPOON in his cane!)
  609. 01[00:50] <Trevor> (What think Camellia?)
  610. [00:51] <Camellia> (1: This kid's really good at battling for his age wow. A bit of admiration there. 2: Wow, this kid is weird. Along with everyone I've met in this city so far. Cool I guess.)
  611. [00:52] <Camellia> (Seriously, I've met Reinhard the STRONG, his kid brother with a horsea that uses thunderbolt, a deaf-mute telepath, a one-armed kid with a harpoon, and part of the LAW trio. Cole is probably the only 'normal' seeming person of the bunch.)
  612. 01[00:53] <Trevor> (And he's a psychic, so there goes that. xD)
  613. [00:53] <Kuji> (So mean...)
  614. [00:53] <~Garlyle> (I want you to know that nearly everyone is now connected somehow to one another on this damn chart. Just so you all know)
  615. 01[00:54] <Trevor> (You mean that all of the active people are now linked six degrees of separation style?)
  616. [00:54] <Camellia> (Haha, I'm looking forward to how you manage to arrange that. Also, you might want to draw an enemy line from Camellia to the Unown)
  617. 01[00:54] <Trevor> (And has your secretly shipped pair interacted yet Garlyle? :D)
  618. 01[00:55] <Trevor> (If not, can you try to promote said interaction?)
  619. 01[00:55] <Trevor> (Also, where be our Maus?)
  620. [00:56] <~Garlyle> (I was waiting on a good chance for him to show up, like you guys arriving at the diner or something)
  621. [00:56] <Camellia> (Well, I think we're about to head there now, if everyone's still up to continue)
  622. [00:57] <Zuphyr> (Oh yeah Gar, throw in a crush arrow from Marcus to Kris.)
  623. [00:57] <Kuji> "TO THE DINER!"
  624. [00:57] <Camellia> "So, Kuji, was it? You said you could get free food?"
  625. 01[00:57] <Trevor> (I'm gonna continue if only so that I can force myself to stay awake long enough that I can crash and then wake up at a SOMEWHAT reasonable time tomorrow?)
  626. [00:57] <Kuji> "Yeah, why do you- fine, I'll share with you."
  627. 06[00:58] * Camellia beams. "I'll share some tea with you then, so we'll be even."
  628. [00:58] <~Garlyle> (Wait, what? Seriously, Zuph?)
  629. [00:58] <Kuji> "Milk tea, right?"
  630. 01[00:58] <Trevor> "A diner sounds like a fine idea." His Pachirisu and Teddiursa, which had kinda been tending to each other's Donphan-afflicted injuries before, perk up at the thought of food, the former dashing over to and climbing up Trevor as quickly as possible.
  631. [00:59] <Camellia> "If you want. I personally prefer it plain. No sugar or milk for me." as she says this, Camellia is taking a bag of loose leaf tea from her messenger bag. "I can heat up some water with Chammy for this. Just get some milk and sugar I guess."
  632. [01:00] <Zuphyr> (Completely serious. I was thinking about his relations to the other day, and decided he has a small crush on him. Kind of ironic, after being literally crushed.)
  633. 01[01:00] <Trevor> (He's in love with his POWER!)
  634. [01:01] <Zuphyr> (Relations to other characters I mean.)
  635. [01:01] <Kuji> "LETS GO!"
  636. [01:01] <Camellia> (I think that's Altho's first actual crush or love line, right? The rest are just lines to represent they've been shipped, nothing concrete in character?)
  637. [01:01] <Kuji> (And now we're going to get there.)
  638. [01:01] <~Garlyle> (Okay, done. Also no, it's -not- actually the first crush line)
  639. [01:01] <Camellia> (Oh? Then who was the first?)
  640. [01:01] <~Garlyle> (Salino to Mariam)
  641. [01:02] <Camellia> (ahahaha, I remember that now)
  642. [01:02] <Kuji> (Oh, yeah.)
  643. 01[01:02] <Trevor> (Dat ass)
  644. 06[01:02] * Camellia is following right behind Kuji as they enter the diner.
  645. 03[01:02] * Garlyle is now known as Maus
  646. 03[01:02] * Maus is now known as Maus_Riverbed
  647. [01:02] <Zuphyr> (Haha, and thanks gar.)
  648. 06[01:03] * Trevor hurries along after the other two, hopefully not being left behind.
  649. [01:03] <Kuji> "Hey, waiter! Let me get the officer's special! For me, my kid, and my... friend here!"
  650. 01[01:03] <Trevor> (Kid?)
  651. 06[01:03] * Camellia hums a little tune as she enters, happy at the prospect of free food. :D
  652. [01:03] <Kuji> (You want free food, right?)
  653. 01[01:04] <Trevor> (He coulda paid for it himself, but whatever. Trevor's got loads of emone.)
  654. 01[01:04] <Trevor> (Also, how old is Kuji? Would this even be reasonable?!?)
  655. [01:04] <Kuji> (31, so... yeah.)
  656. 01[01:04] <Trevor> (Oh shit. He's 31. This WOULD be reasonable.)
  657. 06[01:05] * Kuji sits down on a large booth and gestures for the kid and friend to sit down. "Alright, guys, time to chow down!"
  658. 01[01:05] <Trevor> Trevor can't help but raise an eyebrow at "my kid". He's REALLY hoping that was meant for Camellia somehow.
  659. 01[01:06] <Trevor> (For all we know, Trevor might as well be Kuji's kid, considering the man piggybacks him everywhere. xD)
  660. [01:06] <Camellia> (Camellia is 22 - no dice)
  661. [01:06] <Kuji> (XD)
  662. 01[01:06] <Trevor> (Damnit!)
  663. [01:06] <~Maus_Riverbed> The waiter mutters something about the boss and contracts and leads Kuji's "family" to one of the booths, hurrying off to deliver the order. At the booth across the aisle is a lone boy, munching on a sandwich - with a Murkrow atop his head doing much the same.
  664. [01:09] <Kuji> "Hm?"
  665. [01:09] <Kuji> "Who's that guy?"
  666. 06[01:09] * Camellia releases Chai and Assam from their pokeballs as she sits down. "So they let people feed their pokemon here too?" She glances over at Maus.
  667. [01:09] <Kuji> "Ah, well. Give me the best you got, waiter!"
  668. 01[01:09] <Trevor> (Hey, look! It's that quiet kid from last time that just stole everyone's berries and didn't give a fuck.)
  669. [01:10] <Kuji> (>_>)
  670. 01[01:10] <Trevor> "I'd assume if one's willing to pay, they wouldn't deny a meal to a well-behaved Pokemon." He holds Abe's PokeBall out and shakes his head.
  671. [01:10] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus doesn't seem to notice the attention being paid to him, but his companion does - he taps Maus on the head with a wing, and the boy looks up from his meal and over to meet Camellia's gaze. "?"
  672. [01:10] <Kuji> "...Abe is your definition of well-behaved?"
  673. [01:11] <Camellia> "Oh hi there. I'm Camellia. Sorry if I disturbed your meal, I was just commenting that they let pokemon eat here too. It's ridiculous, but I've been to some places that get mad at you for that..."
  674. 01[01:11] <Trevor> "Hardly such. I was merely lamenting."
  675. [01:12] <Kuji> "..." Kuji just sits and waits for his meal to come.
  676. [01:13] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus swallows down the bite of sandwich he was working on, and nods a little. "It's, uh... it's why I come here, yeah..." he's a little surprised at being talked to, apparently
  677. [01:14] <Kuji> "Hm..." He releases his Scraggy out to sit on the table to eat as well. "Good thing, huh? Now it's time for good food!" he shouted as him and Raft did a double high five.
  678. [01:14] <Camellia> "That's wonderful. I really am getting tempted to just stay in this city a while longer." Another shake emanates from her lanturn as Chammy shakes her head again.
  679. 01[01:14] <Trevor> Pachirisu, perched atop Trevor's shoulder, tries to reach for one of the pieces of bread (or whatever it is they leave out for the customers to snack on before their appetizers arrive), but fails to reach due to its lack of arm length. He quickly grabs a piece of each for his Pokemon before they attempt to climb up on the table.
  680. [01:15] <Camellia> "Oh right, I didn't order." Camellia picks up the menu and looks it over. "Something light, something light..."
  681. 01[01:15] <Trevor> 1d1000
  682. [01:15] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, 1d1000: 227 [1d1000=227]
  683. 01[01:15] <Trevor> (Wait, shit. Too many 0s)
  684. 01[01:15] <Trevor> 1d100
  685. [01:15] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, 1d100: 55 [1d100=55]
  686. [01:16] <~Maus_Riverbed> The boy finally seems to take note of their Pokemon, and smiles a little. "If, uh... it's too crowded for all of you, there's space over here for your Pokemon... I don't mind."
  687. [01:17] <Camellia> "Are you sure?" Chai is sitting comfortably in Camellia's lap, but Assam is having a bit of trouble finding floor space where he won't be in someone's way.
  688. [01:17] <Kuji> "Nah, it's alright! We got a big booth... actually, do you wanna sit with us? It must be lonely there by yourself!"
  689. [01:17] <~Maus_Riverbed> "It's... It's alright, I'm used to it."
  690. 01[01:18] <Trevor> Trevor looks around quickly. "I'm fairly certain there's enough room for everyone to remain comfortable over here."
  691. [01:18] <Kuji> "No, come on! Sit with us! I insist!"
  692. [01:18] <Kuji> (...ohgodinb4kujiislabeledapedo)
  693. 01[01:19] <Trevor> (Idunno why, but I feel like being anal and specific in saying that he says comfortable weird. [Com-fort-able instead of comf-tor-able] )
  694. 01[01:19] <Trevor> (OhGodwhywouldyoumakemethinkthat?!?)
  695. [01:19] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Uh..." Maus is all :I
  696. 01[01:20] <Trevor> (He's only thinking that because you said it Kuji)
  697. [01:20] <Camellia> "Don't nag the kid. if he wants to sit with his pokemon, that's fine."
  698. [01:21] <Kuji> "Come on, we're a lovely family. See?" he said, pressing his face against Camellia. "Se- oh, alright." Kuji went back to his seat and drink half of his milk tea in one sip.
  699. [01:21] <Kuji> (Kuji: does not know what "the bubble" is.)
  700. [01:22] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Oh..." Maus's :I turns into more of a :/ and then a :\ . "I, uh... sorry, I wouldn't want to impose on a family..."
  701. 06[01:22] * Camellia gently pushes Kuji aside and she flags down a waiter. "Excuse me, sir? Could I get some hot water please? And the uh...Asian chicken salad."
  702. 03[01:22] * Salino (YellowYosh@sux-26D42B27.hsd1.ga.comcast.net) has joined #AlthoRegion
  703. [01:23] <Kuji> "No, no! We'd love a new addition!"
  704. 06[01:23] * Camellia scoots her chair away from Kuji's, toward Maus a bit and whispers to him "We're not really, but if we say we are we get free food!"
  705. [01:23] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Oh..." Maus' sullen look changes sides again. "So... you're liars."
  706. 01[01:24] <Trevor> "I... I'm not quite sure you'd be allowed to adopt anyone with that massive halberd you carry with you, Kuji."
  707. [01:24] <Camellia> "To be fair, he only told the waiter we were friends and he still let us have the free food. I guess he did say Trevor was his kid though..."
  708. 02[01:24] * YellowYoshi (YellowYosh@sux-26D42B27.hsd1.ga.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
  709. 01[01:25] <Trevor> (Also, Trevor's completely oblivious to the fact that food was free... He thinks he's gonna be paying for himself, so... Warning : Bill will run HIGH.)
  710. [01:25] <Kuji> "Oh, come on! I'm a good father!"
  711. 01[01:25] <Trevor> (Knock my arm out again. I DARE you :P)
  712. 06[01:26] * Camellia fishes in her bag for Oolong's pokeball as Assam curls up in an empty space under Maus's table.
  713. [01:26] <Kuji> (...ohgodsotemptedbutthatwouldbemetaing)
  714. [01:26] <Camellia> Pop! Flash! 3 [Lady, you better not have brought me to a contest hall! Oh, a diner. Well then.]
  715. 01[01:26] <Trevor> (Do it playfully?)
  716. 01[01:26] <Trevor> (As an accident, of course.)
  717. [01:26] <Camellia> "You might as well have someone to talk to if you're gonna sit alone." Camellia nudges Oolong over to Maus's table.
  718. [01:26] <~Maus_Riverbed> "..." Maus sighs a little, watching them - but he seems to be smiling a little when Assam joins him.
  719. [01:27] <Camellia> 3[What, am I a babysitter now?]
  720. 06[01:28] * Kuji laughed and slammed his hand on his back playfully. "Come on, kid! Enjoy the meal!"
  721. [01:28] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus smiles a little at Oolong. "Don't worry, I'll take good care of you." Atop his head, Loot cackles.
  722. [01:28] <Kuji> (That should be enough.)
  723. [01:29] <Camellia> 3 [What are you, a hat?] Oolong glances up at Loot.
  724. 01[01:29] <Trevor> Trevor, seeing everyone else's Pokemon crowded around the table with Maus, doesn't find it too inconvenient for two small Pokemon to fill in the holes over there. With little effort, he begins to get Trudy to run over, though Conor's a lot more timid about it before jumping up and over, startled by the sudden impact.
  725. 01[01:29] <Trevor> 1d20-8 Excuse me, waiter. There's an ARM in my soup!
  726. [01:29] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, Excuse me, waiter. There's an ARM in my soup!: 1 [1d20=9]
  727. [01:29] <Camellia> "Kuji, be careful, you'll- oh no"
  728. [01:30] <Kuji> "Oh, your arm. Whoops. You want me to put it back on you?"
  729. 01[01:30] <Trevor> *Pop* goes the arm. Trevor looks at Kuji with one of those "Must you provoke me?" type of looks.
  730. 06[01:30] * ~Maus_Riverbed avoids making a Wild ARMs reference, and instead chuckles at Oolong. "No, I'm just his nest."
  731. 06[01:30] * Camellia is facepalming so hard right now and turns to Maus. "I'msosorryIjustmetthecopguy"
  732. 01[01:30] <Trevor> He then slinks under the table sheepishly so that Kuji can make his way over to obtain his missing arm.
  733. [01:31] <Camellia> 3[Need some more sticks in your hair then. I bet Camelllia can get you some. She tries to talk to trees sometimes! ahahaha!] 2 Camellia turns a bit red at this comment.
  734. [01:32] <Camellia> (derp I confused the color codes for blue and black again...)
  735. 06[01:32] * Kuji grabbed the arm and pulled Trevor back up. "Alright, so remind me kid, where does this go?"
  736. [01:32] <~Maus_Riverbed> "He's a cop--did he just--What is going on." It's not even a question, Maus watches the events unfold in quick succession and is thuroughly bewildered.
  737. 01[01:33] <Trevor> "Kind of... Just... It can't just be jammed... Careful what you're doing with it...'
  738. [01:33] <Kuji> "Precision, got it..."
  739. [01:33] <Kuji> 1d20+2
  740. [01:33] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, 1d20+2: 17 [1d20=15]
  741. 01[01:33] <Trevor> "I can't have it jamming or... breaking on me... They're disturbingly hard to replace." He fumbles about trying to get his jacket off again so it can be plugged back in more easily.
  742. 06[01:33] * Camellia dumps some tea into her hot water and pokes at her salad, pretending not to see what's going on.
  743. 06[01:34] * Kuji pops it back in easily. "Well, that was easy."
  744. [01:34] <Camellia> 3 [Hey kid, need a hand? ahahaha]
  745. [01:34] <Kuji> "Oh, shut up you."
  746. [01:34] <Kuji> (That was a DEX check.)
  747. 01[01:35] <Trevor> Trevor just pulls out his Donphan's PokeBall... "Need I reacquaint you with Abe?"
  748. [01:35] <Camellia> 3[I guess that's why they give you free food. Keeps you in the diners and away from the streets where you could screw even more stuff up huh?]
  749. 01[01:35] <Trevor> (This Spiritomb is an ASSHOLE.)
  750. [01:35] <Camellia> (:3)
  751. 01[01:36] <Trevor> (;A;)
  752. [01:36] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus stares for a little bit, then decides it's best just to return to his food; though a smile comes back on his face when he sees Trevor's Pokemon have joined him. "Hi there."
  753. [01:36] <Kuji> "...don't provoke me, sir..." Kuji growls, gripping his halberd tightly.
  754. 01[01:36] <Trevor> (Also, what food did Trevor's arm land in? I must know!)
  755. [01:36] <Camellia> 3 [Hah! I bet it'd go right through me. And you wouldn't dare start something in this little diner would you officer?]
  756. [01:37] <Kuji> "...argh..." (In the soup someone said. I think.)
  757. [01:37] <Zuphyr> (I kind of want to jump in, now that I'm less distracted.)
  758. [01:37] <Kuji> "Camellia, do you mind if I take your Spiritomb out back and beat him up?"
  759. 06[01:37] * Camellia looks over at everyone with a slightly distressed look on her face. "Don't get mad, Oolong's just upset today because I dressed him up."
  760. [01:38] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Really? ...He seems to be in good spirits to me."
  761. 01[01:39] <Trevor> (That was just me joking OOC)
  762. [01:39] <Camellia> 3[Don't even think about it lady! I'm not wearing a top hat!] he turns to Kuji [Don't think she'd let you. We work as a team. She puts 'em to sleep. I eat their delicious dreams om nom nom nom. Or the other way around sometimes. :3]
  763. [01:39] <~Maus_Riverbed> Loot breaks into caws of laughter atop him, apparently getting some joke that Maus doesn't seem conscious of.
  764. 01[01:40] <Trevor> (Did... Did it just... It just went "Omnomnom", didn't it?)
  765. [01:40] <Camellia> (yes)
  766. [01:40] <Kuji> "Hmph." Kuji lets go of his halberd and eats some of the food in front of him. "This is good..."
  767. [01:40] <Camellia> "He's...less rude usually."
  768. [01:41] <Kuji> "Yeah, well, give him something to eat or something. He's fricking cranky."
  769. 01[01:41] <Trevor> Trevor tries to ignore the snide Spiritomb as he digs into... Holy crap, how much food is sitting in front of him, where the hell is that all supposed to be going, and who thought it'd be a good idea to actually think that was a legitimately placed order?!?
  770. [01:41] <Camellia> 3[If you'll kindly take a nap, I'll be glad to eat your dreams. :3]
  771. [01:42] <Camellia> Meanwhile, Assam and Chai are happy to chow down on some assorted veggies Camellia tosses their way.
  772. 06[01:43] * Kuji chomps down on a delicious steak... "WOW, I HAVEN'T THIS GOOD FOOD IN AGES! CALL THE CHEF HERE! GIVE HIM MY REGARDS!"
  773. 01[01:43] <Trevor> (I imagine that Litwick has problems with his food catching fire as he's trying to eat it.)
  774. [01:43] <Camellia> (both spiritomb and litwick are nullivores, actually)
  775. 01[01:44] <Trevor> (They only feed on LOST SOULS!)
  776. [01:44] <~Maus_Riverbed> Loot, having finished his own portions, flutters across the aisle and over to the other table to help Trevor get through his exaggerated meal
  777. 01[01:44] <Trevor> 2d20
  778. [01:44] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, 2d20: 18 [2d20=14,4]
  779. [01:45] <Kuji> 1d20+10 ONE MAN EATER
  780. [01:45] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, ONE MAN EATER: 30 [1d20=20]
  781. 01[01:45] <Trevor> (Oh GOD.)
  782. [01:45] <Camellia> 3 Oolong turns to Maus, disappointed that he couldn't provoke Kuji further. [You don't seem like much a talker. You let the bird do all that for you?]
  783. [01:46] <Kuji> Kuji takes the initative and starts chomping further... much more quickly than Trevor and the gang.
  784. [01:46] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus nods. "Yeah," he nods. "He used to talk a lot more, but..."
  785. [01:46] <Kuji> Raft joins in the CHOMPING time!
  786. [01:46] <Camellia> 3 [What happened? Let your hair get too long and he doesn't like his nest anymore?]
  787. 01[01:47] <Trevor> Trevor puts his hand out to try and stop the Murkrow from getting at his meal. "I apologize, but I do have intent to finish this meal."
  788. [01:48] <~Maus_Riverbed> "No, he just hasn't become don of this region yet," Maus smirks back, though the comment does make him idly brush a bit of his unruly white-gray-black-what-the-hell-kinda-color-is-that-anyway hair back.
  789. [01:48] <~Maus_Riverbed> Loot doesn't particularly care for being dissuaded. He attempts to dive under Trevor's hand and snatch a chunk of meat from his plate.
  790. [01:48] <Camellia> 3 [No kidding! With that hair, I'm not surprised. If he's gonna be pimpin' he needs a nicer crib than that!]
  791. 01[01:49] <Trevor> (Oh God. I'm rolling!)
  792. [01:49] <Camellia> (oh god what am I doing with Oolong?)
  793. 06[01:49] * Kuji finishes chomping his meal and chuckles at Trevor's attempt. "Heh. You'll never beat your own man there!"
  794. [01:49] <Kuji> old*
  795. [01:49] <Kuji> (You're Sara-ing everyone =p)
  796. 06[01:50] * Camellia slowly picks at her food as the rest of the group chows down. Despite her excitement at getting free food, she doesn't seem to be eating all that much.
  797. [01:50] <Kuji> (Just kidding, of course.)
  798. 01[01:50] <Trevor> Trevor attempts to deflect the bird away from his meal. "I'm sorry, but if I'm going to pay for this meal, I intend to be the one to consume it."
  799. 01[01:50] <Trevor> 1d20-8 BLOCK (?)
  800. [01:50] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, BLOCK (?): 3 [1d20=11]
  801. [01:50] <Kuji> "What do you mean you're going to pay?"
  802. [01:50] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Really? He seems to enjoy it," Maus grins a little, then starts looking for Loot - who is busy fluttering back to his roost with a new snack.
  803. 06[01:50] * Camellia looks up a second. "Pay?"
  804. 01[01:51] <Trevor> Distracted enough by Kuji's comment to look up. "Well, I wasn't intending to throw the tab unto you... Or anyone else, for that matter."
  805. [01:51] <Camellia> 3 [Hey, hey guy] Oolong seems to be addressing Loot. [You gonna let this kid keep such a messy nest for ya? Could use some decoration - don't take any advice from Camellia over there though, she's terrible at that stuff.]
  806. 01[01:51] <Trevor> He then looks down and silently curses the bird, which had made off with the best part of his steak.
  807. 06[01:51] * Camellia glares at Oolong but continues eating.
  808. 01[01:52] <Trevor> (Also, Kuji, that comment... :( )
  809. [01:52] <Kuji> (Yeah, I know. Sorry. Too far that time.)
  810. [01:53] <Kuji> "Oh, for frick's sake! Goddamn you independent-at-10 kids these days! You're under my wing tonight, and that's FINAL!"
  811. [01:53] <Camellia> "Trevor, Kuji's got us covered. Free meal for officers apparently."
  812. 01[01:54] <Trevor> He looks up at Kuji, then down at his meal... And the ones he ordered for Conor and Trudy... "Well... This is embarrassing..."
  813. 01[01:54] <Trevor> (Seriously, that meal plan's $70 Poke, at least as far as I rolled. xD)
  814. [01:54] <~Maus_Riverbed> Loot munches down a chunk of meat before finishing, speaking in caws to human ears - but it's clear to Pokemon. {Bitch please, this kid's down is down with me. Soft as silk and loaded for self-defense, this ain't a crib it's a goddamn throne.}
  815. [01:54] <Kuji> "...thankgodforfreemeals, thankgodforfreemeals, thankgodforfreemeals."
  816. 06[01:55] * Camellia finishes up her salad and calls over a waiter. "Could I get some tiramisu please? Two orders in fact."
  817. [01:55] <Kuji> "Hm? What kind of thing is that?"
  818. 01[01:56] <Trevor> (I imagine Teddiursa scarfing down a sirloin steak and Pachirisu eating a cashew filled salad or something. Trevor's just got a SHITLOAD of food.)
  819. [01:56] <Camellia> "Um, it's kinda like coffee cake but with chocolate powder and a bit of liquor."
  820. [01:57] <Kuji> "Liquor! GREAT IDEA! SOME BEER PLEASE!"
  821. 06[01:57] * Kuji points at Camellia. "And no liquor for her, she's the designated driver."
  822. 01[01:57] <Trevor> "Just tell them to keep my meal separate from yours. I'm capable of handling my own expenses."
  823. [01:57] <Camellia> 3 [You gotta be kidding me. Your taste is almost as bad as Camellia's]
  824. [01:58] <Camellia> "There's hardly any in tiramisu, it's just for flavoring. I had enough to drink on New Year's anyway."
  825. [01:58] <~Maus_Riverbed> {You're dead and so's your appreciation for finery. You'd probably prefer a damn topknot, old men}
  826. 01[01:59] <Trevor> (Is that the Murkrow talking? Or OOC?)
  827. [01:59] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus reaches up and pokes Loot in the side. "Behave yourself."
  828. [01:59] <Kuji> (Murkrow's talk is {})
  829. [01:59] <~Maus_Riverbed> (That's the Murkrow speaking... in caws.)
  830. 01[01:59] <Trevor> (Oh. Didn't see.)
  831. [01:59] <Camellia> 3 [A hundred and eight souls here agree with me. But hey, it's your loss.]
  832. 01[01:59] <Trevor> (This... Fucking... SPIRITOMB!)
  833. [02:00] <Kuji> (LOL)
  834. 06[02:00] * Camellia lets out a small giggle. "Well, those two have taken to each other, haven't they? No idea what your Murkrow is saying, but he must be saying something right if Oolong disagrees with his taste."
  835. 06[02:01] * Kuji grabs a beer and drinks it. "Alright, just one, since the kids are here." He hands the mug back to the waiter and relaxes on the booth. "Man, that was a GREAT meal..."
  836. [02:02] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus chuckles a little, entertained.
  837. [02:02] <Camellia> 3 [Okay, can we just settle this? QUICK POLL OF THE TABLES: would I or would I not look absolutely ridiculous in a top hat and monocle?]
  838. [02:02] <Camellia> "I think it's a great idea, don't you?" Camellia just beams.
  839. [02:03] <Kuji> "You would... NOT look absolutely ridiculous. In fact, you'd be the most dashing Pokemon in the PLANET!" he said, obviously still sore from the insults.
  840. 01[02:03] <Trevor> Trevor begins to finish up his meal (Well, as much of it as wasn't stolen by that damned Murkrow...), shaking his head at Kuji. "I'll be... puhficktly fine..." He swallows. "Don't concern yourself with me. I can make it back to my lodgings safely on my own."
  841. 01[02:04] <Trevor> "As for the Spiritomb, I've yet to see it sport a monocle, so I can't say for myself. My opinion would only be finalized once we've assembled the full wardrobe."
  842. [02:04] <~Maus_Riverbed> {What's the matter, afraid you couldn't style a pimpin' cap like I can?}. As though he can understand Loot, Maus nods.
  843. [02:05] <Camellia> Oolong looks cross and sits in silence. Camellia just giggles.
  844. 01[02:07] <Trevor> (That Murkrow needs Dark Pulse for Aura. SOON.)
  845. [02:07] <Salino> (now Gar is in on it too!?)
  846. 01[02:07] <Trevor> (If not NAO.)
  847. [02:07] <Camellia> (Feel free to join us Yoshi)
  848. [02:08] <Camellia> (And yeah, what's up with that? There's no TM for dark pulse or I'd have given it to Chamomile...)
  849. [02:08] <Salino> (maybe... it's already 2 AM =X)
  850. [02:08] <Kuji> (We're in the diner with the free food.)
  851. [02:09] <Salino> (eh why not XD)
  852. 06[02:11] * Kuji grabs another meal and starts chomping down on it.
  853. [02:11] <Camellia> 3[Nice change of heart you had there cop man.]
  854. [02:11] <Kuji> "Heh. Nice insults, Pokemon."
  855. 06[02:11] * Salino walks into the diner briskly and takes a big long whiff of the smell of food. "Aw man pal, real food!" He approaches the counter with the register and give a giant smile to the lady behind it. "This is the place that gives free meals to law enforcers right?" He grabs his badge out his coat and flashes it with pride. "Detective Fenn here! Salino Fenn!" Such enthusiasm from this guy...
  856. [02:12] <Kuji> "Salino! COME HERE!"
  857. [02:12] <Camellia> 3[I don't see you winning any fashion contests.]
  858. [02:13] <Kuji> "I don't see you winning any, either."
  859. 01[02:13] <Trevor> "I can't quite say that I enjoy the policy anymore", he thinks to himself... He readies his wallet, regardless of what Kuji may think after finishing up his meal.
  860. [02:13] <Salino> Salino's smile twitches visibly as he hears his name shouted out. That voice... he turned towards the source and surely enough... "Not you again pal... I'm gettin' sick of finding you everywhere..." He leans foward in a pose of defeated sadness and walks his way over.
  861. [02:14] <Camellia> 3['Cause Camellia won't buy me a leather jacket and shades. It'd look sick, but she tells me I'd look silly trying to wear a jacket.]
  862. [02:14] <Camellia> "Friend of yours, Kuji?" Camellia is committed to ignoring Oolong's comments as long as he's still being an asshole.
  863. [02:14] <~Maus_Riverbed> For Salino's reference: There's two booths across the aisle from one another. One has Camellia, Kuji, and Trevor, plus one or two of Camellia's mons; the other has Maus and Camellia's other mons, including Oolong the Spiritomb; and Trevor's mons)
  864. [02:15] <Kuji> "COME ON, SALINO! WE'LL HAVE OR EATING CONTEST NOW!"
  865. [02:15] <Kuji> Our*
  866. 01[02:16] <Trevor> "Kuji... You JUST finished several meals off yourself... And I'd prefer not to be coated in any projectile vomit resulting from your shenanigans..."
  867. [02:16] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Is he... normally this loud?" Maus is just finishing his meal up - the one he'd already been some ways into when the others arrived. He's very slow.
  868. [02:16] <Kuji> "Who says I can't hold my own! I could scarf down another meal if I wanted to!"
  869. [02:16] <Salino> Salino eyes Kuji with a raised eyebrow. "Eating contest pal? When did we decide that was happening?" He noticed a booth across from Kuji that was filled with pokemon... and a single kid. "Oops your table is full it looks like I'll sit here." He purposefully sits down before Kuji can interject. Glad to have an excuse to avoid him.
  870. [02:16] <Camellia> 3 [Him? He's a cop too? Looks a bit scrawny dontcha think? I bet even a girl like Camellia can beat him in an arm-wrestling contest...]
  871. 01[02:17] <Trevor> (Oh God. He just called him OUT!)
  872. [02:17] <Camellia> "Ignore Oolong. He's still bitter I made him wear a top hat."
  873. [02:17] <Kuji> "Heh. I'm trying to toughening him up, but all I can do is stop myself from beating him up!"
  874. [02:17] <Camellia> "I'm Camellia by the way. And you are?"
  875. [02:18] <Kuji> "Camellia, this is Salino."
  876. [02:18] <~Maus_Riverbed> "A cop, too...?" Maus looks up at Salino, a little surprised to be joined at the table by someone... and not looking so happy about it.
  877. [02:18] <Camellia> "Nice to meet you Salino."
  878. [02:18] <Kuji> "Salino! You're scaring the little guy! Come, sit next to Camellia!"
  879. [02:18] <Salino> Salino shoots a glare at Kuji before giving a broad smile to Camellia. "Nice to meetcha Camellia! I'm a detective from Sandstep but I've ben abraod for awhile."
  880. [02:19] <Camellia> 3[What's the matter Salino? Ignoring me because you know you'd lose to a girl?]
  881. [02:19] <Camellia> "Oolong, you're embarassing me. Sorry Salino. I'm...not really from anywhere. I like to keep on the move."
  882. 01[02:20] <Trevor> Trevor's frown continues to grow between the Spiritomb's snide comments and Kuji's antagonizing of Salino.
  883. [02:20] <Kuji> "Heh. Come on, Salino! Try it!"
  884. [02:20] <Salino> "I make it a habit not to fight every person I see. Unlike someone else I know." He then turns to the kid across from him. "Are you here with them as well? The name's Salino. Good to meetcha!"
  885. [02:21] <Kuji> "Oh, by the way, Salino... I did some detective work... sit down here, Salino. I recommend it. I don't want to shout it out."
  886. [02:21] <Camellia> 3 [Hahaha, you wuss. Arm-wrestling hardly counts as a fight anyway. Maybe the two cops here could have a drinking contest then. Can you even hold two beers in that small stomach of yours?]
  887. [02:21] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...Hi," Maus nods, very quiet
  888. [02:22] <Camellia> 1d20 is camellia fed up with this shit
  889. [02:22] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, is camellia fed up with this shit: 3 [1d20=3]
  890. 01[02:22] <Trevor> (Quite... I hope.)
  891. [02:22] <Salino> Salino starts to laugh robustly, so much so that tears start coming to his eyes. "An intern punk cop doing a real man's job of detective work? That's a rich one."
  892. [02:22] <Salino> (Yes Salino REALLY HATES YOU at this point Kuji)
  893. [02:23] <Camellia> "That's enough Oolong!" She whips out a pokeball and returns him. "I'm SO sorry about that. He's usually a more playful nice kind of snarky."
  894. 01[02:23] <Trevor> "Need I remind you that you're still both in a public setting?" Trevor sighs, knowing full well where this is gonna go.
  895. [02:23] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus flinches visibly as he watches Oolong up and vanish.
  896. 06[02:23] * Kuji quickly writes down something on a notepad and throws it at Salino.
  897. [02:24] <Salino> "It's no problem miss. I deal with snarky people a lot. You learn to tune it out after awhile."
  898. [02:24] <Salino> 1d20+1
  899. [02:24] <DiceMaid-9001> Salino, 1d20+1: 19 [1d20=18]
  900. [02:24] <Salino> 1d20+2
  901. [02:24] <DiceMaid-9001> Salino, 1d20+2: 21 [1d20=19]
  902. [02:24] <Salino> (ohdeargod)
  903. [02:25] <Salino> Salino then notices Kuji chunking something at him and manages to catch it in midair without even looking away from Camellia. "You need some better aim for that one sir."
  904. [02:25] <Camellia> Seeing the two cops start arguing, Camellia quietly slips away to Maus's table where Oolong was sitting. She sets Chamomile's lanturn down in front of her. "Sorry about that. I think I'll let the two cops argue...Chammy can't really talk to humans well, but your Murkrow might like her."
  905. [02:25] <Kuji> (The notepad says something... "Juniper.")
  906. [02:26] <Salino> (you realize I was sitting with Maus as well right?)
  907. [02:26] <Kuji> "The Good-Will Assassin... it's been on the books for a long while..."
  908. [02:26] <Camellia> (I thought you moved to be next to Kuji)
  909. [02:26] <Kuji> (He hates me. ;-;)
  910. [02:26] <Salino> (I ignored him XD)
  911. 01[02:26] <Trevor> (Nope. He moved next to Maus at his table.)
  912. [02:27] <Camellia> (well, in that case, let's say I was between you two so I moved out of the way to the other side of Maus's table)
  913. [02:27] <Salino> (you can't say Kuji didn't earn it XD)
  914. [02:27] <~Maus_Riverbed> (Curious fact, if that's about the events of 02-OA - according to the date given when things started today, I believe that this sessino actually is taking place BEFORE the library bakeoff)
  915. [02:27] <Kuji> Indeed you were.
  916. [02:27] <Kuji> ...
  917. [02:27] <Kuji> This is 1/7/20XX right now.
  918. [02:27] <Kuji> That was... what? 1/4?
  919. [02:27] <Kuji> Yeah, that sounds right.
  920. [02:28] <Camellia> (#
  921. [02:28] <Camellia> [19:42:21] <@KujiGM> DATE: January 4, 20XX
  922. [02:28] <Camellia> (yep)
  923. [02:28] <~Maus_Riverbed> (...Or maybe my brain's just getting behind me and it was otherwise, but... eh, alright)
  924. [02:28] <Salino> Salino quickly skims over the the note before placing it in a pocket of his coat. He notices that Camellia has joined his table and smiles. "I... don't believe I got your name pal. I got distracted I'm sorry."
  925. [02:29] <Salino> (er that's confusing)
  926. [02:29] <Salino> (I was directing that at Maus D=)
  927. [02:29] <Kuji> "Salino, that's Camellia."
  928. [02:29] <Kuji> "And that's... who?"
  929. [02:29] <Salino> (my brain is off today)
  930. [02:29] <Kuji> "Anyways... according to the camera feed, you should have met him three days ago."
  931. [02:29] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...Maus," the boy finally answers, staring down at a small plate. He pronounces it like 'mouse'.
  932. [02:30] <Kuji> "Maus! Salino, you're the detective! Write that down!"
  933. 01[02:30] <Trevor> Trevor stares down at what little is left of his meal, all of the plates stacked up. He catches a glimpse of one of the last bits of steak and goes to eat it, when... (Random Hours' Past on the food. Why, I have no idea.)
  934. [02:31] <Kuji> ...
  935. [02:31] <Camellia> "It's nice to meet you Maus." Chamomile gives a short nod and floats out of the lanturn to the center of the table. She snuffs out the restaurant's candle with a small snuff of smoke, then pushes it aside and takes its place with a :D on her face.
  936. [02:31] <Camellia> (that was confusing, Camellia is speaking, obviously)
  937. [02:31] <Kuji> (There is... Maus, do me a favor and service Trevor's request.)
  938. [02:31] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus pats the candle, letting it distract him for the time being - it's more of a rub against the side of the thing since obviously patting it on top of its head would hurt.
  939. [02:32] <Camellia> Chamomile is trying her best to be a good candle, staying perfectly still.
  940. [02:32] <~Maus_Riverbed> (You see it sitting in a fridge. Chefs. THE SCREAM OF OIL IN A NEARBY PAN ECHOES THROUGH YOUR HEAD. General cookery.)
  941. [02:32] <Kuji> (...rofl)
  942. [02:32] <Salino> "Nice to meet you Maus." ! Ding! This is the kid they had no records of. Salino made a mental note to keep this kid in mind and remember his appearance. "Say... weren't you in the poffin contest?"
  943. 01[02:33] <Trevor> (For some reason I was hoping for random Tauros slaughter. xP)
  944. 01[02:33] <Trevor> (Talk about freshly cooked meals?)
  945. [02:33] <Kuji> (In the last hour?)
  946. 01[02:33] <Trevor> (Iunno. xD)
  947. [02:33] <Salino> (am I the only Clairsent with Day's Past? XD)
  948. [02:33] <Kuji> (Maybe.)
  949. 01[02:33] <Trevor> (I was gonna take it Lv11)
  950. [02:33] <~Maus_Riverbed> "..." Maus bites his lip a little, withdrawing on himself a bit; atop him, Loot finishes gulping down the last of Trevor's steak.
  951. 02[02:34] * Zuphyr (uphyr@sux-97A01ABC.hsd1.nm.comcast.net) Quit (Quit: )
  952. [02:34] <Kuji> "Salino, what did I just say. YOU SHOULD HAVE MET HIM THREE DAYS AGO."
  953. 01[02:34] <Trevor> Trevor's random flash of the steak's past, the screeching of the boiling oil in particular, causes him to visibly flinch.
  954. 01[02:35] <Trevor> It causes him to miss the Murkrow's attempt to steal the steak, and he's quite upset when he looks back to find it gone.
  955. [02:35] <Salino> "Subtlety pal, you lack it. In huge quantities."
  956. 06[02:35] * Kuji pushes his steak over to Trevor. "Maybe you're right. I can't eat it all."
  957. [02:35] <Kuji> "Yes, because you miss the obvious!"
  958. [02:36] <Salino> 1d20+5 all the CHAAAA
  959. [02:36] <DiceMaid-9001> Salino, all the CHAAAA: 12 [1d20=7]
  960. 06[02:36] * Kuji grabbed the photo of the ten counters and their contestants and threw it like a shuriken at Salino
  961. [02:36] <Salino> (or only some of it)
  962. 01[02:36] <Trevor> "I had warned you it wasn't a good idea." Albeit a bit slowly compared to previous, he begins to plow into the steak.
  963. 06[02:37] * Camellia helps Assam into a seat next to her and begins plucking leaves off of his back. She tosses them into a small pan that she sets up above Chamomile, who gives a :D in response. As she does this, she makes small talk with Maus, anything to avoid the arguing cops. "So, do you live around here, or are you just visiting?"
  964. [02:37] <Salino> "Give it a rest Kuji, people are trying to enjoy pleasant meals here. The yelling isn't helpful." PING! The photo hits the side of his head and lands onto the table. He studies it silently for a bit before putting that in his coat. How many pockets are in that thing?
  965. [02:38] <Salino> A waitress walks by and takes Salino's order. "Chicken club sandwich would be great pal! With fries!"
  966. [02:38] <Kuji> Without looking, Kuji sticks a fork on Trevor's steak and cuts a big bite, shoving the meat into his mouth, chewing harshly... with his mouth closed, of course.
  967. [02:38] <Kuji> (GODTOOMANYWITCHESANDBORESAROUND)
  968. 01[02:39] <Trevor> (WITCHES!)
  969. [02:39] <~Maus_Riverbed> "I, uh... I don't really live anywhere..."
  970. 06[02:40] * Camellia 's eyes brighten a bit at hearing that. "Oh, so you're like me. Just travel all the time?"
  971. [02:40] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...Yeah, I guess."
  972. 01[02:41] <Trevor> (Does Maus look kinda battered or visibly worn or anything like that?)
  973. [02:41] <Salino> "Travelling is the best pal! So many things to see, so many things to do. So many things... to investigate!"
  974. [02:41] <Camellia> "It's a fun lifestyle, isn't it? Have any places you'd recommend visiting? I've only been in Altho a few years now." Camellia begins dumping the dried leaves into a bag. "Do you like tea, by the way?"
  975. 03[02:42] * Maxwell is now known as Mons
  976. 06[02:42] * Kuji glares at Salino. YOULOVEITYOULOVEITYOULOVEIT
  977. [02:42] <~Maus_Riverbed> He kind of looks like a wreck, yes. Not like injured, just... a little worn down and dirty and stuff. Also a little overwhelmed by everyone talking to him so excitedly. "I, uh... I'm not much for tea..."
  978. 01[02:43] <Trevor> (Exactly what I was hoping for.)
  979. 02[02:43] * Mons (Mons@sux-530AA3AB.nap.wideopenwest.com) Quit (Quit: and so we are always at make track for that metamorphic guy)
  980. [02:43] <Salino> "Oh yeah! Sandstep is a great place. The city is smaller than this but it's still got most everything you'd want. The beaches are fantastic too! I kinda miss it..." he trails off as a waitress drops off his food in front of him and he stares at it mouth wide open. "Fooooood!"
  981. [02:43] <Camellia> "Oh, that's a shame." Camellia puts away her now-refilled bag of tea.
  982. [02:44] <Camellia> "I've never been to Sandstep. Do they have good food there?"
  983. 01[02:45] <Trevor> Trevor, having not really paid much mind to the party that his group intruded upon before, looks over to Maus, listening to his exchange between Camellia. "Oh, my," he's thinking to himself. "He seems to be a bit worse for the wear..."
  984. [02:45] <Salino> Salino begins to dig into his food with gusto, for once it was a meal that wasn't instant noodles! "Oh.... yeah.... if you like seafood.... there's no better place." He's delicately balancing talking and shoving delicious food in his mouth.
  985. [02:46] <Camellia> "Seafood...I wonder if it's better than Olivine's."
  986. [02:47] <Salino> "Olivine? Can't say I've been there. I've never actually been outside of Altho myself." It's... kind of frightening how fast Salino is putting away that food. It almost appears as if he hadn't had real food in a good week to be eating that fast.
  987. 06[02:48] * Kuji sighed and put his head on the table after stacking the plates off to one side. "Man, I'm tired today."
  988. 01[02:48] <Trevor> (In character, Trevor is pitying the sad lolrus... Err, Maus. Damn Board Game Online messing with my head.)
  989. [02:50] <Camellia> "Johto's a great place. I plan to visit home again later this year. I just have some things here in Altho to take care of first..."
  990. [02:50] <Kuji> "Hm? Whatcha got, Camellia?" Kuji said, raising himself up again.
  991. [02:51] <Camellia> "Uhh...more traveling. Life experience I guess..." Camellia's answer is a bit unsure.
  992. [02:51] <Salino> 1d20-6
  993. [02:51] <DiceMaid-9001> Salino, 1d20-6: -3 [1d20=3]
  994. [02:51] <Salino> (ohdear)
  995. 01[02:51] <Trevor> (Oh boy.)
  996. [02:52] <Salino> Salino's plate is clean but he is suddenly feeling very, very not good. "Oof... I think I ate too much too fast." His head slams on the table as he lets out a heavy sigh. "I... feel kind of miserable now pal..."
  997. [02:52] <Kuji> ...
  998. [02:52] <Kuji> 1d20 respect?
  999. [02:52] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, respect?: 15 [1d20=15]
  1000. 01[02:52] <Trevor> (>implying there isn't instantly a -6 modifier on that)
  1001. [02:53] <Kuji> Kuji nodded and went over to Salino. "Poor guy... he's too worked up from our exercise today."
  1002. [02:53] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus has taken the opportunity to start attempting to slip away, since conversation has stopped focusing on him.
  1003. [02:53] <Salino> 1d20-20 Salino respects Kuji? :D
  1004. [02:53] <DiceMaid-9001> Salino, Salino respects Kuji? :D: -13 [1d20=7]
  1005. [02:53] <Camellia> 1d20+5 notice Maus?
  1006. [02:53] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, notice Maus?: 20 [1d20=15]
  1007. [02:53] <Salino> (totally caught)
  1008. 01[02:53] <Trevor> 1d20+2 Like hell if he's getting away.
  1009. [02:53] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, Like hell if he's getting away.: 7 [1d20=5]
  1010. 01[02:53] <Trevor> (DAMNIT)
  1011. [02:53] <~Maus_Riverbed> 1d20-3 my stealth cannot win against Camellia
  1012. [02:53] <DiceMaid-9001> Maus_Riverbed, my stealth cannot win against Camellia: 4 [1d20=7]
  1013. 01[02:54] <Trevor> (Hey, even Trevor sees :D)
  1014. 06[02:54] * Kuji helped Salino up his feet by wrapping one of his arms around his shoulders. "Alright, come on, Salino."
  1015. [02:54] <Camellia> "Hey, leaving already Maus? Stay with us a bit. I just got my dessert. You can try some." Camellia puts a bit of tiramisu on an empty plate and pushes it toward Maus.
  1016. [02:55] <Salino> "But... I still want to socialize!" Uh... is Salino's face a slight pale green color now. "And that chicken was so good!"
  1017. [02:55] <~Maus_Riverbed> "I, uh..." Maus shakes his head. "I mean, I'm done, a-and it's your food..."
  1018. [02:55] <Kuji> "Yeah, well, we're getting you home. Where do you live?"
  1019. 01[02:55] <Trevor> "Perhaps you should hurry off to the restroom quickly... Just in case."
  1020. [02:55] <Salino> (we do a side session and Sal gets food poisoning)
  1021. [02:55] <Salino> (glorious)
  1022. [02:55] <Camellia> "It's really good though. And it's free!"
  1023. [02:56] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...Only 'cause you're lying..."
  1024. [02:56] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus mutters this a little low.
  1025. [02:56] <Camellia> 1d20+5 hear this?
  1026. [02:56] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, hear this?: 15 [1d20=10]
  1027. [02:56] <Salino> "Yeah maybe you're ri--" Sal suddenly shoves his way out of Kuji's grasp and does a rather impressive sprint towards the restrooms.
  1028. [02:56] <Kuji> (inb4bytheendofthecampaignCamelliaandKujigetmarriedandadoptTrevor)
  1029. [02:56] <Camellia> (probably good enough?)
  1030. [02:56] <~Maus_Riverbed> (sure)
  1031. [02:57] <Salino> 1d20+2
  1032. [02:57] <DiceMaid-9001> Salino, 1d20+2: 20 [1d20=18]
  1033. [02:57] <Camellia> "I told you, it wasn't really a lie." Camellia frowns a bit at being called a liar again. "Kuji was very clear at saying we were friends. And officers can share their meals with friends."
  1034. [02:57] <Salino> He even managed to avoid trampling any people on his way!
  1035. 01[02:57] <Trevor> ( >implying Salino has the STR to trample anything)
  1036. [02:58] <Kuji> "Yeah. We're just friends. I did say that."
  1037. [02:58] <Salino> 1d20-6
  1038. [02:58] <DiceMaid-9001> Salino, 1d20-6: 1 [1d20=7]
  1039. 06[02:58] * Kuji heads back to his seat and scoots over.
  1040. [02:58] <Camellia> (...poor Salino)
  1041. [02:58] <~Maus_Riverbed> "..." Maus still has a visible frown. "...Nevermind, I... I should probably be going."
  1042. [02:59] <Salino> You hear a suddenly horribly loud scream from the restrooms. "DID THEY EVEN COOK THAT CHICKEN!?"
  1043. [02:59] <Kuji> "...did you eat any chicken today, Trevor?"
  1044. [02:59] <Camellia> "Are...are you sure? The tiramisu is really good." Camellia's finished half of her portion by now.
  1045. 01[02:59] <Trevor> Trevor sets his money out on the table... Some 90 Poke to cover the services and as a gratuity, as he had already calculated the cost in his head.
  1046. 01[02:59] <Trevor> 1d20+3 Dare I say he had chicken? :P (Just a joke roll)
  1047. [03:00] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, Dare I say he had chicken? :P (Just a joke roll): 19 [1d20=16]
  1048. [03:00] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus seems to have frozen up, biting his lip nervously, then he starts scooting out of his seat again. "...I... I'm sure it is, I just... it's just getting loud here..."
  1049. 01[03:01] <Trevor> "I actually didn't. I had quite a bit of steak and several orders of pasta, an appetizer of calamari... But no chicken, surprisingly. Would have rounded out the meal quite well."
  1050. [03:01] <Kuji> "I swear I didn't have any chicken tonight..."
  1051. [03:01] <Salino> Salino emerges from the restrooms and seems... a bit wobbly. He approaches the group once more and still looks kind of a pale-green color in his face. "I should have stuck to instant noodles pal..."
  1052. [03:01] <Camellia> "Oh...okay, if you're sure then." Camellia returns to eating her tiramisu. "Is there something wrong with the chicken? I had some in my salad, but it was cooked fine."
  1053. 01[03:01] <Trevor> "Perhaps his was simply ill-prepared?"
  1054. [03:02] <Kuji> "Salino, do you need me to walk you home?"
  1055. 01[03:02] <Trevor> (Also, where's Kuji yelling at Trevor? I was half expecting yelling. :P Unless he's too distracted by ... Yep, too distracted.)
  1056. [03:02] <Salino> (that's what happens when you don't look at the food you scarf down)
  1057. [03:03] <Salino> 1d20-6 ONE MORE FOR THE LULZ
  1058. [03:03] <DiceMaid-9001> Salino, ONE MORE FOR THE LULZ: 8 [1d20=14]
  1059. [03:03] <Salino> Salino is rather wobbly and weak in the legs but he seems more or less able to carry himself. "Nah it's fine pal... just gonna... go try not to think about food for a few days..."
  1060. 01[03:03] <Trevor> (I demand Kuji roll a CON check too for all the shit he ate)
  1061. [03:04] <Kuji> 1d20+3 seriously?
  1062. [03:04] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, seriously?: 6 [1d20=3]
  1063. [03:04] <Camellia> "My salad was really good. Maybe you just ate too much..."
  1064. [03:04] <Salino> (ohboy)
  1065. [03:04] <Kuji> ...
  1066. 01[03:04] <Trevor> ( :3 )
  1067. [03:04] <Kuji> 1d20+10 HOLDITIN
  1068. [03:04] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, HOLDITIN: 20 [1d20=10]
  1069. [03:04] <Salino> (I... don't think that's a str check?)
  1070. 01[03:04] <Trevor> (His anus is prepared. Run, Kuji! RUN to the BATHROOM!)
  1071. [03:04] <Salino> (XD)
  1072. [03:04] <Salino> (or that's another route)
  1073. 01[03:05] <Trevor> ( Sorry. )
  1074. 06[03:05] * Kuji groaned and holded his sickness in for now. Salino needed his help. "Come on, let's go to the sleeping quarters of the station..."
  1075. [03:05] <Kuji> held, I know.
  1076. [03:06] <Salino> "I would love... to go one day without something horrible happening. Just one would be nice." Salino starts to head for the door and stumbles and falls to the floor. "I'm fine really." He sounds pathetic at this point.
  1077. 06[03:06] * Camellia sets down her fork and picks up Chai into her lap to give her the tiramisu portion she offered Maus.
  1078. [03:07] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus looks up at the two in confusion, tilting his head a little. "?"
  1079. 01[03:07] <Trevor> "Dare I ask if the police cruiser's within range?"
  1080. 06[03:07] * Kuji grabs Salino and hoists him up. "I can walk him."
  1081. [03:07] <Kuji> 1d20+3 CON check again
  1082. [03:07] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, CON check again: 8 [1d20=5]
  1083. 01[03:07] <Trevor> (Not much better.)
  1084. [03:07] <Salino> (orcanyou)
  1085. [03:07] <Kuji> "Yeah, I'm feeling better now."
  1086. [03:08] <Camellia> "Are you two going to be okay?"
  1087. [03:08] <Kuji> Kuji HOISTS Salino up in the air and carries him back to the police station.
  1088. [03:08] <Kuji> 1d20+10
  1089. [03:08] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, 1d20+10: 17 [1d20=7]
  1090. [03:08] <Kuji> ...
  1091. [03:08] <Kuji> 1d20+5 DC
  1092. [03:08] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, DC: 24 [1d20=19]
  1093. [03:08] <Kuji> ...
  1094. [03:08] <Kuji> And...
  1095. [03:08] <Kuji> 1d20+2
  1096. [03:08] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, 1d20+2: 14 [1d20=12]
  1097. [03:09] <Kuji> Almost drops him next to the police station.
  1098. [03:09] <Salino> As they near the stations Kuji can hear sounds coming from Salino as if he's about to lose the rest of his lunch.
  1099. [03:09] <Kuji> The other officers help him up, and Kuji goes to the bathroom and gets some rest...
  1100. 06[03:09] * Camellia turns to Trevor and Maus. "Well, the two cops left. They were making a big scene anyway. Still, I'm glad they got us some free food."
  1101. 01[03:09] <Trevor> "I hope they return to the station with neither of them relieving themselves of their meals on the pavement."
  1102. 03[03:10] * Kuji is now known as KujiUn
  1103. [03:10] <KujiUn> And, I'm done.
  1104. [03:10] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...I... wouldn't have guessed they're dating," Maus muses.
  1105. 03[03:10] * Solitaire (Inu888@sux-85E30D39.dsl.irvnca.pacbell.net) has left #AlthoRegion
  1106. [03:10] <Salino> (Wh....what)
  1107. [03:10] <Salino> (ohnoyoudidntgar)
  1108. 01[03:10] <Trevor> 1d20+2
  1109. [03:10] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, 1d20+2: 4 [1d20=2]
  1110. 03[03:10] * Salino is now known as YellowYoshi
  1111. [03:10] <Camellia> "...Dating? You think so?" Camellia contemplates this for a moment.
  1112. 01[03:11] <Trevor> Trevor fails to stifle a chuckle.
  1113. 01[03:11] <Trevor> "They're quite adamant about their passionate dislike for another."
  1114. [03:11] <~Maus_Riverbed> "They said they're sharing a room or something, didn't they?" Maus looks back.
  1115. [03:11] <YellowYoshi> (inb4 police threesome by the end of this campaign)
  1116. 01[03:11] <Trevor> (Kuji > Salino > Jamal > JUSTICE Train fuck. It WILL happen.)
  1117. [03:12] <Camellia> "Oh..." Camellia giggles a bit. "You might be right! Oh, Chai, don't overeat, you had a lot of the salad already..."
  1118. 01[03:12] <Trevor> ( Gar... Was THAT the shipped pair? :/ )
  1119. 01[03:12] <Trevor> ( If so I am greatly disappoint. )
  1120. [03:12] <YellowYoshi> (leaningawayfromkeyboard.jpg donotwant D=)
  1121. [03:12] <KujiUn> ...
  1122. [03:12] <KujiUn> notsureifwant
  1123. [03:13] <~Maus_Riverbed> (It really was not)
  1124. 01[03:13] <Trevor> "It's probably just an arrangement for Salino to stay with the local police branch."
  1125. 01[03:13] <Trevor> "I doubt it's anything of that sort."
  1126. [03:14] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Oh... okay." Maus' expression regarding this revelation is unreadable, but he does look more... relaxed?
  1127. [03:14] <Camellia> "Mmm, but it's more fun to imagine them dating." She drags a bloated Eevee back into her lap and gives it an affectionate pet.
  1128. 01[03:15] <Trevor> (Is Maus a homophobe? ;A; )
  1129. [03:16] <~Maus_Riverbed> (Ahaha)
  1130. [03:16] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...At least they're gone..." Maus, surprisingly, settles back into the seat he had been leaving.
  1131. 01[03:17] <Trevor> "I still believe them to be far too dysfunctional to be capable of anything of the sort."
  1132. [03:17] <YellowYoshi> (this is not happening)
  1133. [03:18] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...I dunno, you'd be surprised..."
  1134. [03:18] <Camellia> "...I wouldn't be surprised. You know Kuji well, Trevor?" Camellia takes out her pokedex and checks for text messages.
  1135. 01[03:19] <Trevor> "I wouldn't say I know him moreso than he knows my physical contours..." He chuckles, a bit embarrassed. "He's . . . Quite hands-on and physical with people."
  1136. [03:19] <YellowYoshi> (ahhhh child molester kuji bad! D=)
  1137. [03:19] <~Maus_Riverbed> 1d20+3
  1138. [03:19] <DiceMaid-9001> Maus_Riverbed, 1d20+3: 16 [1d20=13]
  1139. [03:19] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Oh? ...Huhn."
  1140. [03:19] <Camellia> "I noticed." Camellia idly rubs her cheek where Kuji forcibly pressed his face against it.
  1141. [03:20] <YellowYoshi> (w...what the hell did he do? D=)
  1142. 01[03:20] <Trevor> "A bit moreso than I'd enjoy, but admittedly it means less effort exerted into my travelling. Abe tends to be rather unreliable in that respect."
  1143. 01[03:21] <Trevor> Trevor quickly checks the tab, if it was left, to see how much everyone else's stuff was at his table... He feels bad about all that money.
  1144. [03:21] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus sighs a little, resting against his hand. "...Go figure a cop'd be like that..."
  1145. [03:21] <Camellia> "Hopefully, one day Assam can help me out traveling like that." Camellia sets down her pokedex on the table and begins to pet her Grotle.
  1146. [03:23] <Camellia> 1d20
  1147. [03:23] <DiceMaid-9001> Camellia, 1d20: 17 [1d20=17]
  1148. 01[03:23] <Trevor> "Grotle grow to be very large in their evolved state. I wouldn't find it hard to believe it'd make for good transport."
  1149. [03:23] <~Maus_Riverbed> 1d20-3
  1150. [03:23] <DiceMaid-9001> Maus_Riverbed, 1d20-3: -1 [1d20=2]
  1151. 01[03:23] <Trevor> ( Oh boy... (
  1152. 06[03:24] * ~Maus_Riverbed zones out
  1153. 06[03:24] * Camellia pulls Oolong's pokeball back out and releases him again. "Alright, you can come back out. Now, can you please stop embarassing me in front of everyone?"
  1154. [03:24] <Camellia> 3 [Haha. oh, is the wussy cop gone now? What happened? Did he do the drinking contest like I wanted then get his drunk ass carried home?]
  1155. 01[03:25] <Trevor> ( Oh God. )
  1156. 01[03:25] <Trevor> ( He's BA-AACK! *cackles maniacally* )
  1157. 01[03:26] <Trevor> Trevor frowns at Oolong. "Not . . . Quite."
  1158. 01[03:26] <Trevor> ( Also, I swear if that Spiritomb ever gets Psychic and steals my arm... )
  1159. 06[03:26] * ~Maus_Riverbed fails to notice Oolong coming back
  1160. [03:27] <Camellia> 3 [Ha, then what? I see the loud obnoxious cop is gone too. Did they get in a fight and take it outside?]
  1161. 06[03:28] * Trevor shakes his head rejectively.
  1162. [03:29] <YellowYoshi> (Salino doesn't get paid enough for the abuse he takes)
  1163. [03:29] <YellowYoshi> (I DEMAND A PAY RAISE)
  1164. 06[03:29] * Camellia groans and picks up her pokedex again, flipping through the menus.
  1165. 02[03:29] * KujiUn (Kotodes@sux-3B675EB7.lv.lv.cox.net) Quit (Quit: Leaving)
  1166. 01[03:30] <Trevor> ( Why does everyone expect the damned Wanderers' thing to go off like every two seconds? xD )
  1167. [03:30] <Camellia> 3 [Hey, nest kid is still here.]
  1168. [03:30] <Camellia> (...How often do they usually go off?)
  1169. [03:31] <YellowYoshi> (I fear the day we get a call and it plays the Champion Theme. WE ALL DIE)
  1170. [03:31] <Camellia> (And I assumed that they work as normal cell phones too, or at least that some Wanderers would use them as such)
  1171. [03:31] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...Huhn?" Maus looks up at someone referring to him, finally snapping back to reality
  1172. [03:31] <~Maus_Riverbed> 1d20-3
  1173. [03:31] <DiceMaid-9001> Maus_Riverbed, 1d20-3: 4 [1d20=7]
  1174. [03:31] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...When'd you get let out again?"
  1175. [03:32] <Camellia> 3 [Camellia will never admit it, but she loves my presence. I say the things she's too nice to say aloud.] 1 "That's only true when you're not being obscenely rude, Oolong..."
  1176. [03:33] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...She still keeps you locked up though." :/
  1177. [03:33] <Camellia> 3 [Not most of the time actually. Spent all of New Year's causing all kinds of ch- er, fun. 8D]
  1178. [03:34] <Camellia> (Camellia actually doesn't keep her pokemon in pokeballs most of the time - Grotle and Eevee being exceptions as of this winter due to the cold)
  1179. [03:35] <Camellia> "That poor kid, you scared him half to death back then...but it was kind of funny."
  1180. 01[03:35] <Trevor> ( What kid? )
  1181. [03:35] <~Maus_Riverbed> (Maus has no way of knowing this - all he's seen is her using a pokeball)
  1182. [03:36] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Oh... alright." Maus sighs a little. "...Right, I should go pay my bill and be off..."
  1183. [03:36] <Camellia> (oh true)
  1184. [03:36] <Camellia> "Just tell them you're with Kuji. They seem pretty lax with who they consider an officer's friends."
  1185. [03:36] <YellowYoshi> (Should I start keeping a list of Salino's failures/mishaps/etc?)
  1186. 01[03:37] <Trevor> ( Do so. )
  1187. [03:37] <Camellia> 3 [Am I the only one shocked Camellia hasn't gotten fat since she loves food so much?]
  1188. 01[03:37] <Trevor> "If anything, I can cover. Money's not that much of a concern for me."
  1189. [03:38] <YellowYoshi> (Lesse... took a Koffing explosion... nearly broke his back lifting crates and getting FALCON ELBOWED by Kuji... entered a poffin contest with no berries... got food poisoning...)
  1190. [03:38] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...I'm not gonna lie like that..."
  1191. 01[03:38] <Trevor> Trevor just stares at the Spiritomb... Jaw wide open. "I don't mean to be rude, but your Spiritomb is really quite ill-mannered."
  1192. [03:39] <Camellia> 3 In response, Oolong just cackles. [Boy you can't take a joke huh?]
  1193. [03:40] <Camellia> "He's reliable, so I give him a pass. Got me out of a bit of trouble when we first met, actually."
  1194. 01[03:40] <Trevor> "There are some boundaries which just aren't meant to be crossed. And I'm fairly certain you've steamrolled through half of them in the past two hours."
  1195. [03:40] <Camellia> 3 [And what are the other half? I'll go for the gold today! 8D]
  1196. [03:41] <YellowYoshi> (i should get to sleep now)
  1197. [03:41] <YellowYoshi> (thanks to a certain someone I've been distracted by new shiny games 8D)
  1198. 01[03:42] <Trevor> (Damnit Spiritomb)
  1199. 01[03:43] <Trevor> (Stop making me LAUGH!)
  1200. [03:44] <Camellia> "Maus, don't worry about it so much. I just met Kuji on the street before coming in here, and he invited me for a free meal. I'm sure the restaurant gets this all the time."
  1201. [03:45] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...It's still... I-I don't need the charity or anything, so I shouldn't..." he certainly doesn't quite look it. Loot caws about something from atop him and paces on his head a little.
  1202. 01[03:46] <Trevor> "I'd prefer not to impart that knowledge upon you." He then turns to Maus, if only because it isn't Spiritomb.
  1203. [03:46] <Camellia> 3 [Your throne doesn't have a very good head on his shoulders. Lookin' so weary and refusing free food. I'm surprised Camellia is the one making sense this time.]
  1204. 03[03:48] * YellowYoshi is now known as SleepYoshi
  1205. [03:49] <~Maus_Riverbed> Loot paces around a little to try to get his point across. {He's just stubborn, that's all}
  1206. [03:50] <Camellia> 3 [Maybe you should knock some sense into him with those wings of yours. You certainly had no problem taking free food from Trevor there.]
  1207. 01[03:51] <Trevor> Trevor can't help but wonder what's going through Maus' head right... Okay, he fires a glance of disapproval at the Spiritomb first, THEN goes back to wondering. (Telepathies, possibly?)
  1208. [03:52] <~Maus_Riverbed> {I know that, damnit, I've been trying, but goody-two-shoes here has been--heywhatyoudoin} Loot is thrown off balance a little as Maus bows lightly. "I, uh... thanks, but... I should be going."
  1209. [03:52] <Camellia> 3 [Not a very goody goody if he didn't try to stop you. Bit of a hypocrite there then isn't he?]
  1210. 01[03:53] <Trevor> (Eh what?!?)
  1211. 06[03:53] * Camellia pointedly turns to Trevor. "Well, I'm glad he found someone to converse with. He really isn't that rude all the time. I think I just pushed him over the edge a bit today with the hat and all..."
  1212. [03:53] <Camellia> (Trevor, I meant that Maus didn't try to stop Loot from stealing your food, not that you didn't try to stop him)
  1213. 01[03:54] <Trevor> ( was talking more about Maus' thing)
  1214. [03:54] <Camellia> (oh ho, secret secrets)
  1215. 01[03:54] <Trevor> "Perhaps... Putting him to sleep just to put the hat on probably wasn't the best of ideas."
  1216. [03:54] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus slips away, hurrying up to the counter.
  1217. [03:54] <~Maus_Riverbed> (...You said that before I told you anything though. If you were thinking {} is thoughts; no, it's Murkrow speaking Pokemon-ese)
  1218. 01[03:55] <Trevor> (Oh, right. The Murkrow talk.)
  1219. [03:55] <~Maus_Riverbed> (No crazy dual-personality-disorder in Maus. At least not yet)
  1220. 01[03:55] <Trevor> (Not yet?)
  1221. 01[03:55] <Trevor> (Uh... oh...)
  1222. [03:55] <Camellia> "...Well, maybe. He did put me to sleep on a train once for fun. Woke up two cities past where I wanted to do D:"
  1223. [03:56] <Camellia> 3 [That place was boring anyway!]
  1224. [03:56] <Camellia> *go, not do
  1225. 01[03:57] <Trevor> "Seems like quite the family ties you two share..." He can't help but start walking after Maus, though.
  1226. [03:57] <~Maus_Riverbed> (...Just out of curiosity for a last minute thing, any particular connections you two want drawn to Maus, or?)
  1227. 01[03:57] <Trevor> ( Damnit homeless boy, get back here ;A; )
  1228. [03:57] <Camellia> (if there's one for curiosity?)
  1229. [03:59] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus is at the counter, paying for his food; he has to scrounge through his pockets for it.
  1230. [03:59] <Camellia> Given that she's getting the meal for free, Camellia leaves a generous tip and starts to follow Trevor and Maus, carrying Chai in her arms. Chamomile flitters back into her lanturn, and the other two pokemon just follow behind her.
  1231. 01[04:01] <Trevor> (Damnit... How do I try to offer to pay for someone without coming across like a jerkass? :/)
  1232. [04:01] <Camellia> (walk by and tell the cashier that he was with Kuji and Salino?)
  1233. 01[04:01] <Trevor> (No! Trevor didn't even approve of that!)
  1234. [04:02] <Camellia> (...for me though, I ended up playing Oolong a bit more rude than I originally intended. How do I make his normal mood more likable without making it seem completely out of character?)
  1235. 01[04:03] <Trevor> Trevor hurries back to his table, seeing that Maus was paying at the counter, and brings up the money he was going to pay (minus the tips, he left those behind for the wait(e)ress, along with enough extra that it'd sufficiently cover for Maus. "He was accompanying me," he says politely and with a warm smile.
  1236. [04:04] <~Maus_Riverbed> "H-huhn?" Maus seems a little startled by Trevor showing up again, looking surprised, and he tries to stop the other. "N-no, that's not..."
  1237. 01[04:05] <Trevor> "Don't worry yourself over it." He goes to say something else, but Trudy decides to hop on his head before he can continue his statement.
  1238. 01[04:05] <Trevor> Which causes it, as a result, to be interrupted.
  1239. 01[04:05] <Trevor> (It referring to the statement :/ )
  1240. [04:06] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus tries to speak up once again, only to have Loot caw and settle into his head after a little bit of pacing - he actually does look quite comfy up there, and rather smug to boot.
  1241. [04:06] <Camellia> 3 [Kids these days are too naive. Don't know a good opportunity at all. At least you got that going for you Camellia.]
  1242. 01[04:07] <Trevor> ( . . . Crap. I hate when I WANT to say something in character, but OOC I'm just like *brainfart.jpg* )
  1243. 01[04:08] <Trevor> "It's the least that can be done... Admittedly, we probably intruded horribly upon your meal."
  1244. 01[04:08] <Trevor> (Random number... How much Poke do you think the sandwich woulda cost? :P)
  1245. [04:08] <Camellia> 3 [And the bird stealing your steak didn't?]
  1246. [04:09] <~Maus_Riverbed> (I don't even want to think about functional prices of meals etc)
  1247. [04:10] <Camellia> (are you actually subtracting poke for this? I made the assumption that our funds don't include costs of living and all that)
  1248. [04:10] <~Maus_Riverbed> ^
  1249. 01[04:10] <Trevor> "Speaking of which..." He quickly asks the waitress if there's anything suitable for a Donphan to eat, feeling bad that his forced encapsulation would have prevented him from enjoying a good meal.
  1250. 01[04:11] <Trevor> (I was gonna, since he's heavily insisting on it, he's already got most of his supplies for the whole campaign purchased already, and I doubt that however much Poke it is would cause such a dent that he'd be unable to buy anything of importance later.)
  1251. 01[04:12] <Trevor> (Not outright mentioning it, more like "I'll bring it back to Abe at the hotel" and stuff...)
  1252. 01[04:13] <Trevor> ( /me throws a cookie into the room. )
  1253. [04:14] <Camellia> Camellia is looking out the window, watching it get dark. "Might be a nice night for star-gazing..."
  1254. 01[04:14] <Trevor> "Like i said before, it's the least that can be done to compensate for intruding upon your meal."
  1255. 06[04:15] * ~Maus_Riverbed falls silent, letting Trevor cover him; the waitress gives Trevor you a look that seems quite pleased by something.
  1256. [04:15] <Camellia> 3 [Shouldn't you be charging the kid for the steak his bird stole from ya?]
  1257. 01[04:15] <Trevor> ( . . . )
  1258. 01[04:16] <Trevor> ( And now I feel bad OOC because Trevor just stuffed himself in front of a homeless kid. )
  1259. 01[04:16] <Trevor> ( Wait, he IS homeless, right? )
  1260. 01[04:17] <Trevor> "I had more than enough. It's negligible, Oolong."
  1261. [04:17] <~Maus_Riverbed> (You have no idea, but all signs seem to point to yes as far as how he looks)
  1262. [04:18] <Camellia> "Maus, do you have a place to stay? You can borrow my hotel room for the night if you want. I'm going to stay out and go star-gazing."
  1263. [04:18] <Camellia> 3 [She's going to go try to talk to treeees!]
  1264. 01[04:18] <Trevor> ( . . . Damnit I was gonna do that! )
  1265. 01[04:18] <Trevor> ( DAMNIT CAMELLIA! )
  1266. [04:19] <Camellia> "...And maybe they'll talk back this time." She sticks her tongue out at Oolong.
  1267. [04:20] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus shakes his head. "I'm just fine. I don't need a hotel or anything like that." His words are a little less hesitant.
  1268. [04:20] <Camellia> "You sure? I'm planning on just sleeping in a field tonight. It'd be a waste since I'm paying either way."
  1269. [04:22] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...I don't like having a roof over my head."
  1270. 01[04:23] <Trevor> "Don't like...? That's a rather unusual preference..." He scratches his head, just a little bit confused by what he just said.
  1271. [04:23] <Camellia> "Well, suit yourself. Hope you take care then. Come on Oolong, let's go talk to trees." Camellia is a bit confused but doesn't want to pursue this line of questioning further, especially with Oolong still being snarky.
  1272. [04:24] <~Maus_Riverbed> "...It's just how I live," Maus shrugs, bowing once more to the waitress before heading out the door.
  1273. 01[04:26] <Trevor> "Wait a second," Trevor shouts, hopefully stopping Maus before he leaves. "I was hoping to at least introduce myself before we part ways. I had forgotten earlier..."
  1274. [04:27] <~Maus_Riverbed> Maus turns around at the last moment before disappearing into the crowds of the early-evening Ivoryscape streets. "...?"
  1275. 01[04:28] <Trevor> "My name's Trevor. Trevor Stephens... I was hoping that maybe we could run into each other again some time." He holds out his right arm for a handshake and sports a warm smile.
  1276. [04:29] <~Maus_Riverbed> 1d20+3
  1277. [04:29] <DiceMaid-9001> Maus_Riverbed, 1d20+3: 16 [1d20=13]
  1278. 01[04:29] <Trevor> ( . . . Please don't tell me that was a STR check.)
  1279. 06[04:29] * Camellia is heading the other way, typing something on her pokedex it seems. She gives a last wave to the pair. "Bye Trevor, Maus. I think we'll see each other again someday."
  1280. 03[04:30] * Camellia is now known as castfromhp
  1281. [04:30] <~Maus_Riverbed> "Oh, uh... yeah." Maus nods, taking a moment to steady himself and takes Trevor's hand to shake it, carefully. "That'd... I mean, I'm Maus, and... I hope so too."
  1282. 01[04:30] <Trevor> Maus may or may not notice something's just... Wrong with Trevor's hand. (Whoops? xP)
  1283. [04:31] <~Maus_Riverbed> 1d20-3
  1284. [04:31] <DiceMaid-9001> Maus_Riverbed, 1d20-3: 9 [1d20=12]
  1285. 06[04:31] * ~Maus_Riverbed notices nothing, or at least, doesn't give any indication of it
  1286. 01[04:33] <Trevor> "Very well, then. If you need anything in the next few days, don't hesitate to look for me. I'm lodging at <Insert Hotel Name Here> for at least a little while longer."
  1287. [04:33] <~Maus_Riverbed> (One last check... Trevor's line towards Maus?)
  1288. 01[04:34] <Trevor> (He's definitely friendly... And definitely a bit curious. Also feeling bad about Kuji and Salino and Oolong's behavior and... Well, it's complicated. Just leave it at friend if anything.)
  1289. 01[04:34] <Trevor> (actually, lemme check the relationship charts to see if there's something more fitting.)
  1290. [04:34] <~Maus_Riverbed> "I'll... I'll remember that, thanks," Maus nods, managing a bit of a smile, then lets go of Trevor's hand and turns, quickly making his way back into the crowd.
  1291. 01[04:35] <Trevor> (Assume Trevor gave Maus the relevant information, too, if necessary :P)
  1292. 03[04:35] * Maus_Riverbed is now known as Garlyle
  1293. [04:35] <~Garlyle> (Of course)
  1294. [04:36] <castfromhp> (So uh, want some honest feedback here: Was the way I played Oolong too obnoxious? And since I'm planning on him being normally not so rude, how should I best do that without making him seem completely different?)
  1295. 01[04:36] <Trevor> (Oolong was RIDICULOUS. But I freakin' loved it anyways.)
  1296. [04:36] <~Garlyle> (make him just... snarky normally?)
  1297. [04:36] <~Garlyle> (like "Oh, THAT'S a great idea" type)
  1298. 01[04:36] <Trevor> (Sarcasm is your best friend.)
  1299. [04:36] <~Garlyle> (Anyway yeah lemme know once you've got it so I can upload an updated chart)
  1300. 01[04:37] <Trevor> (Leave it at friend for now.)
  1301. [04:37] <castfromhp> (Put mine at curiosity. Did I already mention that? It's a bit late and I'm getting sleepy)
  1302. 01[04:37] <Trevor> Trevor couldn't help but wonder, though, and having seen the reaction on the woman's face earlier, he starts asking her about Maus, if to get any information.
  1303. [04:38] <~Garlyle> (Charisma check)
  1304. 01[04:38] <Trevor> 1d20 Well, shit.
  1305. [04:38] <DiceMaid-9001> Trevor, Well, shit.: 10 [1d20=10]
  1306. [04:38] <~Garlyle> She doesn't want to tell you much... just that she's glad you're "helping him out". She says the rest is his own business and it's not her job to gossip about customers.
  1307. 01[04:39] <Trevor> (Well, damn. :/ Oh welp)
  1308. 01[04:39] <Trevor> Trevor gives an understanding nod, and heads back to the hotel with the quick meal he picked up for Abe... Hopefully this'll get the elephant to not cause so much chaos.
