  1. [21:28] <~CounterBeard> Last time on Talent Scouts, they fought...a blood monsterlittlergirl thingie. And it turned out to allbeadreamworld.jpg. They have had time to recover and it is THE DAWN OF THE FI- I already used that joke but it is morning of the day you all set out from Estuan. (Finally) You are all gathered at the League Office filling out your paper work stating what time you are leaving. Would you like to go shopping for provisions b
  2. [21:29] <Rock> beforehand? Yes, Rock would. He walks in the gym and looks around.
  3. [21:29] <Tentra> Tentra has no money, so she sits around the office waiting on the others.
  4. [21:30] <Alexei> (hold on lemme check if Alexei has money for things that aren't vodka)
  5. [21:30] <Alexei> (are pokeballs 300 as per book price or 200 as per game?)

  9. [21:32] <~CounterBeard> The construction crew is fairly speedy. The painters seem to be setting up the finishing touches on the walls and the electrician is testing the last bit of wiring. The Electricians Pichu is helping him out.The gym has a series of chalk lines on the floor that seem to be immitating a maze or something. Rock can see Henry crooning over an egg and a Vespiquen floating nearby.
  10. [21:32] <Rock> "Hey, Henry. Looks like you're all ready."
  11. [21:35] <~CounterBeard> "Oh yes. Am setting up little gym trial of sorts. Honeycomb maze, League went and sent for my lovely Lia here." He motions at the Vespiquen. "We are to make out own honeycomb hedge. Discussed with MRs. Johnson she okayed the project. May try to implement system of changing walls. Am yet unsure. How are you friend Rock?"
  12. [21:36] <~CounterBeard> (Also I think I said they were 300 per ball Alexei)

  16. [21:36] <Tentra> (still richer then Tentra :3c)
  17. [21:36] <Rock_> (What did Henry say?)
  18. [21:36] <~CounterBeard> "Oh yes. Am setting up little gym trial of sorts. Honeycomb maze, League went and sent for my lovely Lia here." He motions at the Vespiquen. "We are to make out own honeycomb hedge. Discussed with MRs. Johnson she okayed the project. May try to implement system of changing walls. Am yet unsure. How are you friend Rock?"
  19. [21:37] <~CounterBeard> (Yesss no monies for you. Yesss.)
  20. [21:37] <Rock_> "I'm good. Just about to leave town... looks like you got everything under control."
  21. 02[21:37] * Rock (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) Quit (Ping timeout)

  23. 03[21:38] * DiceMaid-9001 (DiceMaid-9@sux-EADD5C74) has joined #TalentScouts
  24. [21:39] <~CounterBeard> Henry nods and croons to the egg some more. "Oh yes. Though we have plenty of time before challengers. gym will not be full operation until atleast 8 leaders are crowned."
  25. 06[21:39] * Alexei bursts into the gym, flask in hand. How fabulous is the place?
  26. [21:39] <~CounterBeard> (It is fairly fabulous.)
  27. [21:39] <Rock> "Of course. Anyways, I wish you luck." Rock turns his back on Henry and leaves the gym.
  28. [21:39] <~CounterBeard> Not as fabulous as if Alexei had done the decorating but nice.
  29. 06[21:40] * Alexei nods his approval, then puts a hand out to stop Rock. "Wait, I have not been tell where we are go next yet!"
  30. [21:40] <Rock> "...can I at least check our the shops?"
  31. [21:40] <Rock> out*
  32. [21:41] <Alexei> "Yes, but I am need to know where we are go next. Hold on." Alexei marches over and shoves a bottle of vodka at Henry. "Is goodbye present. If Triface show up, down bottle in one gulp and charge at foe like strong Sinnoh man!"
  33. [21:42] <Rock> "..."
  34. 06[21:42] * Rock just leaves the gym and looks at the market district.
  35. [21:43] <Alexei> (not even going to answer the question? so mean~)
  36. [21:43] <~CounterBeard> The vespiquen floats over and takes the bottle slightly confused but it buzzes happily.
  37. [21:45] <Alexei> "Bug should drink more, will become fabulous like best Butterfree Gin!" Alexei nods in emphasis then heads back out the door. "Good luck!"
  38. [21:46] <~CounterBeard> "And to you friend Alexei!"
  39. 06[21:46] * Rock looks around the shops... let's see... food, drink, thank you canteen... hm... is the material seller back?
  40. [21:46] <~CounterBeard> Rock, with the festival over the bazaar seems to have died down and only a few stalls are still open. The Berry Hippy is there along with funnel cake guy. Sadly the Material Seller is no where to be seen.
  41. 06[21:48] * Rock walks around the bazaar for a few moments, looking at the kind of stuff the Berry Hippy and the Funnel Cake guy is sel- wait. Rock stops and goes to the butcher shop.
  42. [21:49] <Rock> -shop
  43. [21:49] <~CounterBeard> The same guy is there. Though this time his apron is much cleaner and he does not seem nearly as krabby. "Oh s'yous again. How you doin'?"
  44. [21:49] <Rock> "Hey. You got any leftover stuff from butchering?"
  45. [21:50] <~CounterBeard> "You mean like bones and stuff?"
  46. [21:50] <Rock> "Yeah, sure. And I think I'll take some steaks to cook up before we leave."
  47. [21:54] <~CounterBeard> "No problem. Any kind you wants or just 'steaks'?"
  48. [21:54] <Rock> "...hm. Pick me something good and cheap, something that makes me what to come back here sometime."
  49. [21:54] <Rock> want*
  50. [21:56] <~CounterBeard> He goes and riffles through the back some and produces a few bones, and several slices of sirloin. "S'all you want? Works for me kid. That'll be 400."
  51. 06[21:57] * Rock hands the man the money. "Wrap up the steaks, will ya? I'm not sure where I'll find some grills."
  52. [21:58] <~CounterBeard> "Sure thing...You gonna have a way to keep these things cool?" He mumbles wrapping the steaks up a bit. (You have enough steaks for Three meals!)
  53. [21:59] <Rock> "Meh. I'll find it in time." Rock takes the steaks and bones and runs off, going to... the park? They have to have some grills, right?
  54. [22:00] <~CounterBeard> Uh, in theory? They have several fire pits OhgodwhatisRockdoing?
  55. 06[22:01] * Rock finds one with a pit, and unwraps the steaks, cooking them. "Hey, guys." he called in his Pokedex/radio. "Alright, let's have a goodbye meal before we leave, alright? Meet me in the park."
  56. [22:07] <Tentra> While Tentra is back at the office, she attempts a calling chord~
  57. [22:07] <Alexei> A few thuds emanate from the radio, seems like Alexei is having some trouble with it. After a bit, everyone can hear "Too busy drink with bar buddy, tell me when leave town!"
  58. [22:07] <Tentra> 1d20+5 aiming for a 10
  59. [22:07] <DiceMaid-9001> Tentra, aiming for a 10: 17 [1d20=12]
  60. [22:08] <Rock> "You don't like steaks? What the heck is wrong with you?"
  61. [22:08] <Tentra> "I, you shall be the hand of justice!" She scribes as she performs the ceremony.
  62. [22:12] <~CounterBeard> I the unown comes into being. It floats around, confused for just a moment. and Staaaaaaares at Tentra.
  63. [22:13] <Tentra> She releases AEG. "Order recruit I, we request your assistance in our mission to document the events of this counter terr-Pokemon League developing operative team."
  64. [22:14] <Savage> Savage, as ever, doesn't resond to Rock's call because even after being instructed he cannot into technology... but he shows up witihin a little while anyway.
  65. [22:14] <~CounterBeard> I blinks its eye. And bobs.
  66. [22:15] <Rock> "Hey, Savage. You want some steak?"
  67. 06[22:15] * Rock presses the walkie-talkie button. "Tentra, you gonna have some lunch?"
  68. [22:16] <Tentra> She attempts to lego it to AEG in the most ceremonial manner possible.
  69. [22:16] <Tentra> and...then turns her attention to that Pokedex thing, hitting buttons randomly.
  70. [22:17] <~CounterBeard> Click. I has joined the party. Roll for Hidden powers.
  71. [22:17] <Tentra> 1d4;1d17
  72. [22:17] <DiceMaid-9001> Tentra, 1d4: 3 [1d4=3]; 1d17: 6 [1d17=6]
  73. [22:17] <Savage> "...I'm fine with steak!" He sits down, companions gathering up around him and turning him into the usual Pile of Pokemon
  74. [22:18] <Tentra> When she manages to find the correct button, she replies. "Um...yes, we shall attempt to locate you and the others."
  75. 06[22:18] * Rock flips the steaks and looks at them. "Hm..."
  76. [22:19] <Tentra> She then scurries around town, until she can find them.
  77. [22:19] <Rock> "Alright, then." Rock then counts. "One for me, one for Savage, one for scribe... um, Savage?"
  78. [22:20] <Savage> "Yeah?" Savage is attempting to balance all of his Companions on his head at the same time what the heck Savage
  79. [22:20] <Rock> "Can you get something to hold these steaks for me?"
  80. [22:21] <~CounterBeard> Tessy is on top being awesome and a spider not giving a single fuck.
  81. [22:21] <Savage> "Oh. You can't just use your hands?" Headtilt
  82. [22:21] <Rock> "I don't think scribe will be able to."
  83. [22:21] <Tentra> She eventually does find them at the park. "We assume that means us."
  84. [22:22] <Savage> "Maybe? What's a 'scribe' anyway?"
  85. [22:23] <Savage> "I thought you name was Tentra?" he is confuse
  86. [22:23] <Tentra> She releases Maria, whispers a few words to the Ralts, and the steaks start to float telepathically. "Is this what you needed?"
  87. [22:23] <Rock> "...that works."
  88. 06[22:24] * Rock takes out Biter and hands a steak to Savage.
  89. [22:24] <Tentra> "Indeed, that is my name," she says. "We believe he called us by our profession, not name."
  90. 06[22:25] * Savage fsteaks. "Well, I get that, but--" bitechewchewchew "--what's a scribe do anyway?"
  91. [22:25] <~CounterBeard> Biter sniffs around <Oooh cooked meat. Do I get some?>
  92. [22:26] <Rock> "You get half. Save the other half for me."
  93. [22:26] <Tentra> "We record things by writing them down," she says.
  94. [22:26] <Alexei> "I have bring drinking buddy for goodbye party!" Alexei's booming voice rings out over the park as you see him approach, dragging a poor skinny woman along. They are both wearing double scarves. A few cans of PBR spill out of a plastic bag Alexei is holding as he stops at the grill. "But drinking buddy is not eat steak! Is too 'mainstream' whatever it mean."
  95. [22:27] <~CounterBeard> "I only eat all organic none processed tofu ricecake squares. Plain. You wouldn't understand."
  96. [22:27] <Rock> "..."
  97. [22:27] <Rock> "...I didn't save a steak for you."
  98. [22:27] <Tentra> "It's...not terribly exciting compared to your own profession."
  99. [22:28] <Tentra> (oh god was this PM shenanigans?)
  100. [22:29] <Alexei> "Is okay, will drink beer instead!" Alexei downs a can of PBR. "Beer is for everyone!"
  101. [22:29] <Savage> "Well, I don't really have a profession, so..." he kind of trails off and that fits nicely with him noticing Alexei aproaching with his demon hipster chick--I mean double hipster chick.
  102. [22:30] <Tentra> "We meant the counter terr-Gym Leader recruitment job," she accepts the can, but stares at the scarves...
  103. [22:30] <~CounterBeard> She adjusts her scarves and takes a can from Alexei. She sniffs not quite staring at the group behind her overlylarge glasses.
  104. [22:30] <Tentra> ...and makes a note.
  105. 06[22:30] * Rock takes his bare heads and rips his steak in half before giving a half to Biter and eating the other half.
  106. [22:32] <~CounterBeard> The croconaw goes to town on the meat keeping it floating as it rips off bits.
  107. [22:32] <Alexei> "It is good day for party comrades! Lydia here say she will play music for us while celebrate. Would not explain what kind of music, said there no chance I have heard of it."
  108. [22:32] <Tentra> "...two...scarves..." she mutters. And then sips the drink as she eyes the food.
  109. [22:33] <Savage> Savage tears at the steak to get portions for his partners; they don't need very big portions thankfully. Tessy only needs, like, practically crumbs.
  110. 06[22:34] * Rock finishes his steak quickly and chews on the steak. "...this is good."
  111. [22:34] <Tentra> Tentra splits her steak with her non-unown companions, and sits paitently. "So today we move out, yes?"
  112. [22:35] <Rock> "Yes."
  113. [22:36] <~CounterBeard> "Psh I doubt any of you have heard of Unown Collective or Porygon Fire."
  114. [22:36] <Rock> "Wha?"
  115. [22:37] <Tentra> "..." Tentra looks to AEGI, who is floating nearby, and shrugs.
  116. [22:37] <Savage> "That's the plan, right? I think."
  117. [22:37] <Alexei> "She say band is underground. Not sure why band is dig into ground for play music, but is get free beer so all good."
  118. [22:38] <Tentra> "We don't recall if the Order is underground or not either."
  119. [22:39] <~CounterBeard> She huffs and sips her beer, just sort of...standing there awkwardly.
  120. [22:39] <Tentra> Tentra makes a note about people who wear two scarves.
  121. 06[22:40] * Alexei is also wearing two scarves right now.
  122. [22:40] <Tentra> (THIS CHANGES NOTHING. :3c)
  123. [22:40] <Tentra> "We thought of something last night; one of the destinations was Reeftown, correct?"
  124. [22:41] <Tentra> "We remember a legend about the reef possibly being one giant corscola, and think it would be an interesting thing to investigate."
  125. [22:43] <Alexei> "How are we get to next destination? Is League make arrangement again?" Alexei downs another beer.
  126. [22:43] <Rock> "...honestly, if it's near a Triface base, I'm fine with anything."
  127. [22:45] <Tentra> Tentra isn't sure how to answer either question. She just continues to eat her steak as...AEGI helps himself to PBR.
  128. [22:45] <Savage> "I figure we'd walk out there, myself," Savage rubs the back of his head.
  129. [22:46] <Alexei> "Would Reef Town be cold? Maybe team should get double scarf like me, would have been great help have while watch over prisoner in winter work camp." Alexei flaps his scarves.
  130. [22:46] <Tentra> "Traveling by foot sounds fine to us."
  131. [22:47] <Rock> "Why not?"
  132. [22:47] <Tentra> "...but...why TWO scarves?"
  133. 06[22:48] * Alexei shrugs, gulps some beer and looks to Lydia for an explanation.
  134. [22:51] <~CounterBeard> "I'd try to explain but it might be too deep for you. Gosh. I need some help here come on out." she scoffs and sends out a Cinccino, it has a pair of matching glasses.
  135. [22:51] <Rock> "..."
  136. [22:51] <Tentra> "..."
  137. [22:52] <Rock> "Anyways, we should get going now, right, Alexei?"
  138. [22:52] <Alexei> "Double glasses! Why has Alexei not think of? Could try new look for Niko!"
  139. [22:52] <Alexei> (god damnit, if I could take Fashion Designer now I would totally make double-glasses contest accessories :3)
  140. [22:52] <Tentra> "Why are you wearing glasses?" she asks the Mincinno
  141. [22:52] <Tentra> 1d20+5 inc zoopathy attempts
  142. [22:52] <DiceMaid-9001> Tentra, inc zoopathy attempts: 10 [1d20=5]
  143. [22:52] <Tentra> 1d20+5 #2
  144. [22:52] <DiceMaid-9001> Tentra, #2: 23 [1d20=18]
  145. [22:53] <Tentra> (passed it.)
  146. [22:53] <~CounterBeard> It chitters at Tentra and fluffs its furscarves.
  147. [22:54] <Tentra> "Hm...reasonable enough," she nods.
  148. [22:54] <Savage> "...What'd it say?" 8O
  149. [22:54] <Alexei> "..." Alexei STARES at Tentra. "You can talk with pokemon! I try for many hour to talk to pidgey who send letter for me about job, but it is only chirp back."
  150. [22:55] <Rock> "..."
  151. [22:55] <Tentra> She nods. "Indeed, we can. It says it does it because she likes to match her master."
  152. [22:55] <Rock> "Hey, Alexei, where is the bar with that bomb drink? I think I'm in the mood to try one myself."
  153. 06[22:56] * Alexei scratches his head at the Cincinno. "But...then would not it be what you call it...'mainstream'?"
  154. [22:57] <~CounterBeard> Lydia just freezes in place as her mind adjusts to this. The chinchilla pokemon cleans its fur and tries to keep its glasses on at the same time.
  155. [22:57] <Alexei> "Jaeger bomb? Oh Golden Feebas is just down street, take turn of right. Do you want go now?"
  156. [22:57] <Tentra> AEGI continues to sip at the PBR through the awkward silence. "Did...we do something that unusual?"
  157. 06[22:58] * Rock just heads there, as if that was supposed to be his answer. His only words are "come, Biter."
  158. [22:59] <~CounterBeard> (How does this always happen.)
  159. [22:59] <Savage> "Nah. I chat with Pokemon regularly," Savage laughs, not quite getting the differences. "Some just make more sense than others."
  160. [22:59] <Rock> (How does what always happen?)
  161. [22:59] <~CounterBeard> Rock makes his way to the Golden Feebas. At 10 Am.
  162. [22:59] <Alexei> "..." Alexei ponders, looking clearly jealous. "Then maybe I should give vodka to pokemon first, then will make much more sense!"
  163. [23:00] <Tentra> Tentra scratches her head. "Rock did not seem amused." She gathers her companions and stands. "Alexi, we wish you luck in your endevours, but it wasn't something we could simply perform with training alone."
  164. [23:00] <Rock> And of course it's closed. Rock turns back around and heads back to the park.
  165. [23:01] <Tentra> "So, should we head off now, or do we need to do anything else before leaving?"
  166. 06[23:02] * Alexei crushes another can as he finishes drinking it. "Lydia, we are about leave town. Was very good spend time drink with you. Before go, can you play song for us? From Duchy of Dunsparce, remind me of Sinnoh folk song."
  167. [23:02] <~CounterBeard> There is even a little note on the door "Be open later tonight." There seems to be an...Orange Jynx on the sign.
  168. [23:02] <Rock> "So, where are we going?"
  169. [23:03] <Tentra> "If...it's not too insistent, we'd like to investigate Reeftown," she says quietly.
  170. [23:05] <Rock> "Yeah, sure." Rock looks at his Pokedex to see if any of the locations he entered was near the town.
  171. [23:05] <~CounterBeard> Lydia hands her Pokepod to Alexei still in hipstershock.
  172. [23:05] <~CounterBeard> There is infact some sort of offshore rig of some sort located a few miles away from reeftown.
  173. 06[23:05] * Alexei jams to some hipster tunes as he continues to annihilate the PBR cache.
  174. 06[23:06] * Rock smirks. "Alright. To Reeftown we go."
  175. 02[23:07] * Savage (464dd8bc@sux-D7D2E6A7.mibbit.com) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
  176. [23:09] <~CounterBeard> There is a single can of PBR left.
  177. 06[23:09] * Alexei returns the pokepod. "Does Reeftown have contest hall? After test gym leader, am feel in mood for do fabulous contest again!"
  178. [23:10] <~CounterBeard> There is in fact. A contest hall.
  179. [23:10] <Tentra> AEGI eyes the PBR.
  180. [23:11] <Alexei> "Ooh, Lydia, watch cool trick. Bet have not heard of this before!" Alexei grabs her and turns her toward AEGI and the PBR.
  181. [23:11] <~CounterBeard> She stares at the Unown. As the booze begins to float and slowly gets absorbed into G. G loves the booze.
  182. [23:13] <~CounterBeard> Lydia just sort of. Stares. Takes her pokepod and walks away. The Cinccino chitters at Tentra and follows its master.
  183. [23:14] <Tentra> "Goodbye, little one," she waves at the Cinccino. "We like the little one much better then it's master," she whispers to Alexi.
  184. 06[23:14] * Alexei watches her walk away, then quietly says to Tentra. "I am think she is jealous. She would call trick very 'underground.'"
  185. [23:16] <Tentra> "Well, we shall prepare our belongings for the trip," she says as she heads back to HQ to get her stuff gathered.
  186. [23:16] <Alexei> "I am already prepare! Bought bottle of vodka for road. Am broke now, but is okay!"
  187. [23:18] <Rock> "I'm ready."
  188. [23:19] <Tentra> She returns shortly, with her halberd and such. "Okay, now prepared."
  189. [23:20] <~CounterBeard> The PokeGPS states that the easiest way to leave from Estuan would be to head to the mainland and head east past the Farm Lands you all visited earlier.
  190. 06[23:21] * Rock starts heading to the farms, waiting for no one... as long as they're within looking distance.
  191. [23:22] <~CounterBeard> 1d20 Shenanigans.
  192. [23:22] <DiceMaid-9001> CounterBeard, Shenanigans.: 5 [1d20=5]
  193. 06[23:23] * Tentra follows briskly. "Mrs. Johnson gave us some funds that were meant for a person named Tip."
  194. 06[23:23] * Alexei follows the pair as well. "For hippie nature boy?"
  195. [23:24] <Tentra> "If that describes him? Then yes."
  196. [23:24] <~CounterBeard> When you all have a moment. Please roll a Peception Check.
  197. [23:24] <Tentra> 1d20+5 ruh roh raggy

  203. [23:24] <Tentra> (HNNNNG SO CLOSE.)
  204. [23:24] <~CounterBeard> (Fuckin Eagle Eye.)
  205. [23:25] <~CounterBeard> Rock spots a clouds of dust heading toward you all from the direction of a ranch. He can just make out the form of a small Ponyta barreling toward you all..
  206. [23:26] <Rock> "...Biter. Shoot 'em down." Rock grabs his bow and shoots an arrow at it.
  207. [23:26] <Rock> 1d20
  208. [23:26] <DiceMaid-9001> Rock, 1d20: 9 [1d20=9]
  209. [23:26] <Rock> 2d12+37 damage
  210. [23:26] <DiceMaid-9001> Rock, damage: 50 [2d12=8,5]
  211. [23:27] <Alexei> "Oh, is time for shoot? Are you sure?"
  212. [23:27] <Rock> "It's always time to shoot."
  213. [23:27] <Tentra> "Huh?"
  214. [23:27] <~CounterBeard> The little ponyta takes the arrow in its side and crashes about twenty of feet away from the group. Its blue flames sputter and wane.
  215. 06[23:28] * Alexei scoffs. "I tell you that before but not listen. Now look, you choose wrong time for shoot and poor horse is get hurt for no reason." he walks up to it.
  216. 06[23:28] * Rock looks to the Ponyta and scans it, walking slowly towards it.
  217. [23:28] <Alexei> 1d20-2 perceptan it?
  218. [23:28] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, perceptan it?: 3 [1d20=5]
  219. [23:28] <~CounterBeard> The ponyta is not moving.
  220. 06[23:29] * Rock scans it with the Pokedex. Sorry.
  221. [23:29] <Tentra> Tentra walks over to it slowly. "Oh...poor thing, it was...unusual for its breed too."
  222. 06[23:29] * Alexei checks its pulse.
  223. [23:29] <Rock> "...why is it blue?"
  224. [23:29] <Tentra> "Why did you do that so quickly?"
  225. [23:29] <Rock> "Would you rather have it hit you?"
  226. [23:30] <Alexei> "Rock, I have say many time. Alexei is master of choose who shoot in face, from now on let Alexei make call, yes?"
  227. [23:30] <Tentra> "We'd of rather known if it wasgoing to."
  228. [23:30] <~CounterBeard> (;_;)
  229. [23:30] <Rock> "Hm. Precaution."
  230. [23:31] <~CounterBeard> 1d100 Does it live? ;_;
  231. [23:31] <DiceMaid-9001> CounterBeard, Does it live?: 70 [1d100=70]
  232. [23:31] <Alexei> (whoa, 50 damage was enough to DST it?)
  233. [23:31] <Tentra> "This is not precaution. It's wreckless pursuit."
  234. [23:31] <~CounterBeard> (It was only level 5)
  235. [23:32] <Alexei> (...WHELP)
  236. 06[23:32] * Rock grabs his sword and makes a cut around the body, taking a good piece of hide.
  237. [23:32] <Tentra> She examines it remorsefully. "..."
  238. [23:32] <Rock> (Type?)
  239. [23:32] <~CounterBeard> You get a level 5 fire material.
  240. [23:33] <Alexei> "What in fuck is you doing? Is second time kill pokemon because is stupid and has brain full of shit of bull! And was FABULOUS pokemon this time."
  241. [23:33] <Rock> "Well, it can make FABULOUS armor." Rock puts the hide away and sighs. "Shall we continue?"
  242. [23:35] <Alexei> "We are near ranch, do you think maybe HORSE on RANCH is maybe belong to someone? Is not Soviet Sinnoh" Alexei looks around "Cannot just kill property because is government agent. Alexei does not want go to Kushva work camp."
  243. [23:35] <Tentra> Tentra offers a quick prayor for the poor thing before continuing. "One day you're going to seriously regret such rashness."
  244. [23:36] <~CounterBeard> Hmmmg. Alright. All or nothing.
  245. [23:36] <~CounterBeard> 1d20 Shenanians
  246. [23:36] <DiceMaid-9001> CounterBeard, Shenanians: 17 [1d20=17]
  247. 06[23:36] * Rock just continues on. He has enough of the boo-hooing.
  248. 06[23:36] * Alexei gulps from his flask. "Should already regret when he kill pokemon of Savage. but I suppose is more boorish idiot than even Alexei. Is no time for waste though, let us continue."
  249. [23:37] <Tentra> "He...did what?"
  250. [23:37] <~CounterBeard> You continue on past the ranches and head deeper into the forest.
  251. [23:38] <Alexei> "We are in battle against Triface. I ask for him shoot obvious Triface in face. He not shoot." Alexei drinks some vodka before continuing. "So I try stab in face, but is not enough. During battle, Rock is kill funny fire monkey of Savage. More reason why Alexei should be in charge of all group decision of who shoot in face."
  252. [23:38] <Tentra> She...jots down a note.
  253. [23:40] <Rock> "Collateral damage. I was attacking the Triface member. That monkey was nearby."
  254. [23:41] <Alexei> "Then choose attack method that is not also nearly kill teammate. Is not science of rocket. Even most drunk soldier in Sinnoh is know that! You are make team worry we are next."
  255. [23:41] <Tentra> "Probably skinned it too," she mutters, and then suddenly stops. "Something is...not quite right." She looks around cautiously.
  256. [23:42] <Rock> "I didn't. I'm not that mean."
  257. 06[23:42] * Rock continues through the forest
  258. [23:42] <~CounterBeard> (Only slayer of shiny babbys ;_;)
  259. [23:43] <Tentra> "No, really, something isn't right here." She's not moving.
  260. [23:43] <Rock> (I didn't know it was shiny! Or a baby!)
  261. [23:43] <Rock> "..."
  262. [23:43] <~CounterBeard> The forest is pleasent the shadows cast bt the trees. Make odd little patters on the ground. The breeze is soothing.
  263. [23:44] <Rock> "What do you mean something is wrong?"
  264. [23:44] <Alexei> (it's still a ponyta that's...well, on a ranch. I think anyone would think it belonged to someone, regardless of whether it was shiny or not...)
  265. [23:44] <Tentra> "We mean exactly what we say. Something is amiss."
  266. [23:44] <Tentra> "We do not know what."
  267. 06[23:44] * Alexei hands Tentra his flask. "This fix all problem."

  271. 06[23:46] * Rock_ just continues along the path
  272. [23:46] <Tentra> She accepts it, looking around cautiously. "Something about this makes us feel uneasy."
  273. 02[23:47] * Rock (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) Quit (Ping timeout)
  274. [23:47] <Tentra> She...follows cautiously, looks paranoid.
  275. 03[23:47] * Rock_ is now known as Rock
  276. [23:48] <~CounterBeard> Several pidy and Starly chirp in the trees above you watching. A few weedle and caterpi can be seen scampering on branches. A lone venipede scruntches around.
  277. [23:48] <Rock> And Rock doesn't care. As long as they're making progress, and he can see everyone else, it's fine.
  278. [23:48] <Tentra> (I pidy the fool)
  279. [23:49] <Tentra> "Ah, a venipede. Noble creatures," she mentions as they pass it with a wave. (not trying to iniate capture mode, just sayin')
  280. [23:49] <Alexei> "Is ugly bug."
  281. [23:49] <Alexei> "Not fabulous bug like Gin."
  282. [23:50] <Tentra> "Have you never seen their fully grown form?"
  283. [23:50] <Tentra> "A truely majestic creature."
  284. [23:50] <~CounterBeard> A few shroomish run past you all playing some sort of sporetag.
  285. [23:51] <Rock> "..." Rock turns to Biter. "You wanna play with them?"
  286. [23:51] <~CounterBeard> The whole trip through the forest is calm and almost completly silent.
  287. [23:52] <Alexei> "I am not see problem Tentra, maybe was just not have enough vodka before."
  288. [23:52] <~CounterBeard> <Nah, it's okay. It'd just make me tired and we need to march! How far are we gonna get today?>
  289. [23:52] <Rock> "..." Rock checks the GPS for the progress he made with the time.
  290. [23:53] <~CounterBeard> It is late afternoon almost evening you are about 25 miles away from Estuan, the boat ride out to the mainland really helped with that. It is still several days march to the beach.
  291. [23:54] <Rock> "...good thing I got some food for us earlier, huh?"
  292. [23:54] <Alexei> "Vodka is acceptable replacement for food."
  293. [23:54] <Tentra> She still looks paranoid. "Something just isn't right."
  294. [23:54] <Rock> "Anyways, do you all wanna set up camp soon?"
  295. [23:55] <Alexei> (any towns between here and our destination?)
  296. [23:55] <~CounterBeard> There is a small village that you should be within reach by tomorrow night.
  297. [23:56] <~CounterBeard> Make Camp? Y/N?
  298. [23:56] <Tentra> Tentra votes Y.
  299. 06[23:57] * Alexei decides to make a quick assessment of the surrounding area first, looking for anything unusual.
  300. [23:57] <Alexei> 1d20-2 perceptan
  301. [23:57] <Rock> "We shouldn't stay up too late.
  302. [23:57] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, perceptan: 6 [1d20=8]
  303. [23:57] <Alexei> (god damnit dicemaid)
  304. [23:57] <Tentra> (she's in A MOOD TODAY.)
  305. [23:58] <Rock> "Anyways, stay here and set up camp. I'm going to go secure the area." And hunt.
  306. 06[23:58] * Rock walks around the camp site and checks for any better Pokemon.
  307. [23:59] <Tentra> 1d20+5
  308. [23:59] <DiceMaid-9001> Tentra, 1d20+5: 15 [1d20=10]
  309. [23:59] <Alexei> "I am help with secure area. Rock will shoot all he find except for Triface member."
  310. [23:59] <Rock> "...I'll shoot Triface members too, this time." Rock puts on his Basculin mask and keeps around the camp site.
  311. [00:00] <Tentra> Tentra and AEGI start to gather some sticks for a campfire.
  312. [00:00] <~CounterBeard> Tentra you notice a few tracks around the camp, they seem to be paw prints. Not to large though, and slightly old. And a few marks that seem like they could have been made by a hoof or something.
  313. [00:00] <~CounterBeard> ROCK: Roll me some perception.
  314. [00:01] <Rock> 1d20-2
  315. [00:01] <DiceMaid-9001> Rock, 1d20-2: 4 [1d20=6]
  316. [00:01] <Tentra> "Hm...old tracks."
  317. [00:02] <~CounterBeard> Rock you almost trip over a ferroseed and a foongus. You can hear the snickering of something from the tree tops.
  318. [00:03] <Tentra> "They...might be hoof prints?"
  319. [00:03] <Rock> "...just some wild Pokemon. There isn't a problem. Hey, Biter, what's up there?"
  320. [00:04] <Tentra> Tentra gathers a small campfire, and AEGI ignites it. She takes a seat against a tree and sighs.
  321. [00:05] <~CounterBeard> <I dunno. It likes to climb trees and run around though.>
  322. 06[00:05] * Rock goes ahead and climbs the tree to get a good look at it.
  323. 06[00:06] * Alexei looks disdainfully at the ferroseed and foongus. "Seem like Rock is kill only fabulous pokemon I have seen all day."
  324. [00:06] <Alexei> "Would not mind if kill ugly pokemon though." he drinks some vodka.
  325. [00:06] <Tentra> "Should of asked for a tent or something before we left, eh, AEGI?" she says as she starts to read something.
  326. [00:06] <~CounterBeard> Rock you can see, A Vigoroth and an aipom...and a Nuzleaf snickering a few branches above you.
  327. [00:07] <Rock> Rock is too busy climbing trees.
  328. [00:08] <Rock> Rock drops down, going from branch to branch before going back down on the ground. "Alright, looks like camp's secure. What did you say earlier?"
  329. [00:09] <Alexei> "Said you are kill only fabulous pokemon that have seen all day. All rest are ugly. Again, have choose wrong time for shoot." more vodka drinking "Shoot ugly pokemon is do much bigger favor to world."
  330. [00:09] <Rock> "Alright. I'm having some energy left in me. What should I shoot?"
  331. [00:10] <Tentra> "...Would you really end a life just to pass the time?"
  332. [00:10] <Alexei> "If is get tired, then best save energy for when ugly pokemon is try attack camp. Is ugly and obviously jealous of Gin and Niko for be so fabulous, so will happen. Just wait."
  333. [00:10] <Rock> "...meh. It's not like I'm not going to benefit from it."
  334. [00:11] <Rock> "Alright then." Rock goes back to the camp site and keeps guard of the camp, sitting down, Biter next to him. When Rock is sitting down, Biter is... about the same height as him now. Wow.
  335. [00:12] <~CounterBeard> So Rockyboy is keeping watch, are the other two sleepans?
  336. 06[00:13] * Alexei drinks himself to sleep. Guess he'll take the next shift.
  337. [00:13] <Tentra> Tentra eventually nodded off, but who knows what AEGI was doing. AEGI is watching, always watching. waiting.
  338. 06[00:15] * Rock stays awake, keeping watch of the camp.
  339. [00:16] <~CounterBeard> 1d20 Shenanigans
  340. [00:16] <DiceMaid-9001> CounterBeard, Shenanigans: 10 [1d20=10]
  341. [00:17] <Tentra> Tentra jumps to her feet suddenly.
  342. [00:18] <Tentra> "It's out there," she blurts out, and looks around cautiously.
  343. [00:18] <Rock> "..." Rock turns around and looks at Tentra. "Get some sleep."
  344. [00:18] <Alexei> Zzzzzzz grumble mumble snore "...voodoo scarf..." mumble snore zzzz
  345. [00:19] <Tentra> "No, it awoke me. It invaded my dreams. It's outthere."
  346. [00:19] <Rock> "...what is out there?"
  347. [00:20] <Tentra> "I do not know just what. It snorts, is watching...something about a metal shell, this thing?" she reaches into a pocket for the metal object she found the night before.
  348. 06[00:20] * Rock looks at the object
  349. [00:21] <~CounterBeard> The odd metal...thing. Seems more defined. It seems to be a metal shell or carapace, the same rusty color as that weird dream monster.
  350. 06[00:21] * Rock shrugs. "You're just having a nightmare. Go to sleep."
  351. 06[00:21] * Rock takes out his badge box and looks in it, passing the time.
  352. [00:22] <~CounterBeard> The sixteen bades and the one empty space stare back at Rock.
  353. [00:22] <Tentra> She glares at him. "No, I am not." She turns to the tree she was sitting at, and puts a hand on it. "Old one, just what is it that visited this place? What lies watching in the darkness?" (Tree Hugger)
  354. [00:23] <Rock> "...what WAS that badge?"
  355. 06[00:23] * Rock shrugs and puts away the badge box, staring out to the outside of the camp.
  356. [00:24] <~CounterBeard> The only type missing is Fire Rock.
  357. [00:25] <Rock> "..." Rock is a little confused on how he lost that badge... but oh well. Maybe it has to do with the mask... Rock takes off the gas mask and looks at it a little more closely.
  358. [00:25] <~CounterBeard> Tentra finds an old tree, with scars and marks across it.
  359. [00:26] <Tentra> "We...understand, old one. Thank you for your guidance." She walks to Alexi and shakes him. "Alexi. We need your help."
  360. [00:27] <Rock> "...what is it, Tentra?" Oh, look, Rock remembered the name this time.
  361. [00:27] <Tentra> "It's a ghost."
  362. [00:27] <Alexei> "Bluh dream vodk- what? Alexei was finally learn how drink vodka without buy vodka! Why are interrupt?!"
  363. [00:28] <Tentra> "There's a ghost watching us, it wishes to...speak with us."
  364. [00:28] <Rock> "...how do you talk with ghosts?"
  365. 06[00:28] * Alexei narrows his eyes. Does ghost need shoot in face? "Hm, is voodoo ghost?" he gets up.
  366. [00:29] <Tentra> She points to the tree she asked. "The old one said it is sheparding another who does not wish to leave yet. That it wishes to converse."
  367. [00:29] <Rock> "...wha?" Rock does not understand.
  368. [00:30] <Tentra> "We asked the tree," losing paitence.

  392. [00:35] <Tentra> Tentra waits a few seconds, then approaches the eyes, leaving the camp's perimeter if need be. "What do you wish to speak about, spirit?"
  393. [00:35] <~CounterBeard> It stares at you all from the shadows, you can all hear a snorting and a stamping of feet.
  394. [00:36] <Rock> "..."
  395. [00:36] <Alexei> "Is it voodoo spirit? Can it teach talk to pokemon?"
  396. 06[00:36] * Rock grabs an arrow and readies his bow.
  397. [00:36] <~CounterBeard> The shell in Tentra's hand pulses as she leaves the light of the campfire.
  398. [00:37] <Tentra> She examines it, then looks to the eyes. "We don't understand, spirit; does...this thing mean something to you?"
  399. 06[00:37] * Rock unreadies his bow and grabs his flashlight. "Tentra, you need a light?"
  400. [00:38] <~CounterBeard> The shell pulses in the darkness again and the eyes retreat deeper into the night.
  401. [00:38] <~CounterBeard> Do you follow tentra Y/N?
  402. 06[00:38] * Rock follows Tentra, flashlight on
  403. [00:38] <Tentra> She thinks for a second. "We don't think it likes the light." and then dats after it.
  404. [00:39] <Tentra> darts*
  405. 06[00:39] * Rock turns off the light and tries to follow the glow of the eyes.
  406. 06[00:39] * Alexei sighs, grabs his flask, and follows Tentra.
  407. [00:40] <~CounterBeard> The lights give you a merry chase Tentra, running into the night. You can just follow them, a soft clanking sounds emits every so often when you think you have lost it.

  410. [00:42] <Alexei> "Have consider possible we are go into trap?" Alexei whispers to Tentra.
  411. 06[00:43] * Rock graabs his Pokedex and scans the eyes... maybe it's a Pokemon.
  412. [00:43] <Tentra> She grips the shell tightly, and asks again. "Spirit, what is it that troubles you? Let me try to assist you."

  422. [00:49] <Tentra> She gestures to the spirit, "The Pooka, is it's name."
  423. [00:49] <Tentra> "Pooka, what troubles you?"
  424. [00:52] <Tentra> She nods. "Are you the patron of this forest, Pooka? We...think we understand what you mean."
  425. [00:52] <Rock> "...there's a spirit for every place we go to, isn't there."
  426. [00:52] <Alexei> "Maybe is just like us, see unwanted guest, kick out of home."
  427. [00:54] <Tentra> She holds her hand in front of her, with the shell in her palm, and looks down to it. "I apologize if this thing caused harm. We were attacked by a being that matches what you describe. I...found this afterwards."
  428. 06[00:55] * Alexei just starts chugging vodka. Way too confusing, this all is.
  429. [00:55] <Rock> "..." And every time Alexei chugs some vodka, Rock just feels like beating something up. But he keeps it for later.
  430. [00:56] <Tentra> She also explains to the others. "This shell was at Bo's house. The Pooka says it is part of a Dark Dream, which is...one who can corrupt the Dream World. It draws in dreams, and did so to one who was dieing."
  431. [00:56] <Rock> "...I see."
  432. [00:56] <Rock> "So, we destroy it, right?"
  433. [00:57] <Alexei> "Can it make hallucination like at Bo's?"
  434. [00:59] <Tentra> She looks to the spirit, then the shell, and holds it close. "No, we should not destroy it. Thank you Pooka for your message," she says humbly. "I meant you no disrespect or harm."
  435. [01:00] <~CounterBeard> The eyes dim for a moment before flaring to life. A huge rapidash stands before you, its flames a ghostly bluewhite. Its body encircled with chains wrapped around it thrice. It neighs at you before running off into the woods, into the deep darkness.
  436. [01:00] <Alexei> (did it have FISTS?)
  437. [01:00] <Rock> "...so what do we do with it?"
  438. [01:00] <Tentra> She continues to hold it close. "It's an egg now."
  439. [01:00] <~CounterBeard> (Fists?)
  440. [01:01] <~CounterBeard> (No. No it did not. You are terrible)
  441. [01:01] <Rock> "...another egg? I already have two."
  442. [01:01] <Alexei> (;-;)
  443. [01:01] <Rock> "Someone else take it."
  444. [01:01] <Alexei> "...What. How did metal shell turn to egg? Need more vodka..."
  445. [01:01] <Tentra> She puts it in her bag. "The spirit of one who was not ready to pass on has find shelter in it. The Pooka called it a ghost egg."
  446. [01:02] <Tentra> "I intend to keep it," she says, turning back to return to camp.
  447. [01:02] <Rock> "...let's just get back to camp."
  448. 06[01:03] * Alexei shrugs and follows them back to camp. "Voodoo is so confuse."
  449. [01:03] <Tentra> "Oh, one other thing. He mentioned he assumes many roles. A guide, a mischief maker, a healer and a spirit of vengence. And our actions would decide which he was tonight. Take that as you will."
  450. [01:03] <~CounterBeard> (Spirit egg~)
  451. [01:03] <Alexei> "Is 'brewer' available choice of role?"
  452. [01:03] <Rock> "..." Rock shrugs.
  453. [01:04] <~CounterBeard> (...I know what pokemon Alexei needs and will have. He will never see it coming. It will be glorious.)
  454. [01:04] <Tentra> "He mentioned no such craft. He...did however seem to mock us."
  455. [01:04] <Alexei> (...ohgeez)
  456. 06[01:05] * Rock gets back to camp first, sitting down in front of the camp. "Get some rest, you two. Busy day tomorrow. Gotta wake up at dawn."
  457. [01:05] <Alexei> (I do look forward to that though :D)
  458. [01:06] <Alexei> "Maybe is time for switch shift?"
  459. [01:06] <Rock> "...are you sure?"
  460. [01:06] <Savage> Rock is not the first back to camp, really. Savage is there, hanging from a tree by his feet and acting as a swingset for his Pokemon. "Where where you guys? D:<"
  461. [01:07] <Alexei> "Tentra was talk with voodoo spirit!"
  462. [01:07] <Tentra> Tentra returns to her seat next to the tree, and takes out the egg. "We spoke with a ghost. It...explained some things to us."
  463. [01:07] <Rock> "Just ghost finding. Nice to see you're here with us... full of energy as usual."
  464. [01:08] <Tentra> She nods off fairly quickly, holding the egg closely. AEGI continues to WATCH EVERYTHING.
  465. [01:08] <Savage> "I came back from looking around and you guys were gone! You jerks!" He sticks his tongue out, trying to be angry - even as Wotter flails happily and adorably, getting swung about in the air.
  466. [01:09] <Rock> "...hey, Savage. Are you going to be awake for the rest of the night?"
  467. [01:10] <Savage> "...Probably not. I have to sleep -sometime-, you know." Tessy's turn! Swinging spider on a string d'aww.
  468. [01:11] <~CounterBeard> 1d100 Yes or no?
  469. [01:11] <DiceMaid-9001> CounterBeard, Yes or no?: 55 [1d100=55]
  470. [01:11] <Rock> "Alright, Alexei. Wake us up at dawn. You wanna borrow my sword?"
  471. 06[01:11] * Alexei settles down next to a tree and waits for Rock and Savage to conclude.
  472. [01:11] <Alexei> "Is fabulous sword?"
  473. [01:11] <Rock> "...it's better than your sword."
  474. [01:12] <Alexei> "But is it fabulous?"
  475. 06[01:12] * Rock takes out his ROCK SMASH sword and pushes it to the ground. "Fabulous enough for you?"
  476. [01:13] <Alexei> (but is it ugly or not? with rock smash as its move I bet it's ugly :V)
  477. [01:14] <~CounterBeard> The sword is fairly plain but has a very nice cross guard.
  478. [01:14] <Tentra> "Double scarves..." says Tentra in her sleep.
  479. [01:14] <Alexei> 1d20
  480. [01:14] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, 1d20: 20 [1d20=20]
  481. [01:14] <~CounterBeard> (Ohgod why is there a 20 here?)
  482. [01:16] <Alexei> "Sword is have very fabulous guard, will borrow gladly!"
  483. 06[01:17] * Rock nods and lies down on the ground, kind of lying down on Biter as he sleeps, kind of not.
  484. 06[01:18] * Alexei stoically stares into the night.
  485. [01:19] <~CounterBeard> The rest of the night passes without event. Though Alexei swears he can see a hoothoot giving him the stink eye all night long.
  486. [01:20] <Savage> Savage ends up passing out in the treetops, covered in Pokemon as usual. He looks totally relaxed up there; but the group might be getting used to him sleeping in trees and stuff by now.
  487. 06[01:20] * Alexei glares back at it and points at his flask, then takes a drink, then points the flask towards it.
  488. [01:20] <Alexei> "Drink contest." he says finally.
  489. [01:20] <~CounterBeard> It just staaaaaares back. "Hoot."
  490. [01:21] <Alexei> "...Hoot."
  491. [01:21] <Tentra> (is he sure it's just not AEGI? :3 I don't even if unowns sleep.)
  492. [01:22] <~CounterBeard> (They do not. It is just chilling with him. It is what the unown was actually staring at =V)
  493. [01:22] <Tentra> (ahahah)
  494. [01:22] <~CounterBeard> It is dawn you have all had a fairly okay night sleep. Savage had the best sleep.
  495. [01:23] <Alexei> (is the hoothoot still there?)
  496. 06[01:23] * Rock gets up at the crack of dawn, looking around. "...alright. Let's get moving. Is anyone hungry?"
  497. [01:24] <~CounterBeard> Yes. The hoot hoot is still there. It seems to be falling asleep as the sun goes up though.
  498. [01:25] <Tentra> Tentra gets up slowly, puts the egg away, and just starts trudging along. "We had the worst nightmare."

  507. [01:28] <~CounterBeard> It blinks waking up and yells at alexei as it flies away. "Hoooothoot!" >=(
  508. [01:28] <Savage> Savage yaaaaaawns as he wakes back up, stretching out and watching the others wake up from his comfy position.
  509. [01:28] <Rock> "Biter. Wake up. Time to leave."
  510. 06[01:28] * Rock stands up and starts going the direction of the village.
  511. [01:28] <Alexei> "Shameful!" Alexei yells back and shakes a fist as he goes back to pack his things to leave.
  512. [01:28] <Tentra> "Scarves...so many scarves..."
  513. [01:29] <Tentra> "
  514. [01:29] <Tentra> "Guidos in scarves..."

  517. [01:30] <~CounterBeard> (Did the scarves have jagerbombson them? =3)
  518. [01:30] <Tentra> (possibly.)
  519. [01:31] <Savage> "I am awake," Savage slips, catching himself with his weird monkey-like feet and hanging upside-down from the tree now; it seems to have become a favourite of his.
  520. [01:31] <Tentra> "...No, YOU wake up," she says as she trudges on by with a weak point. Totally zombie mode.
  521. [01:31] <Alexei> "Have been awake since switch guard shift." Alexei grunts.
  522. [01:32] <Rock> "..." Rock shrugs off Tentra talking back... FOR NOW. Dun, dun, dunn! Anyways, Rock is far enough by now that he stopped. "If you guys are awake, hurry up."
  523. [01:33] <Alexei> Who says Rock is ahead? Alexei didn't even have to wake up, so he's been keeping up.
  524. [01:34] <Rock> Then he's waiting for Tentra and Savage. HURRY UP >:D
  525. [01:34] <Tentra> Tentra has been walking?
  526. [01:34] <Savage> "Man, don't you even eat breakfast?" Savage monkeys his way down the tree, collecting his companions, and gets moving.
  527. 06[01:35] * Alexei taps his flask. "Breakfast."
  528. [01:35] <Tentra> "Not particularly hungry," she mumbles, rubbing her eyes.
  529. 06[01:35] * Rock takes some beef jerky and rips off a piece, eating it as he walks. "Anyone want some jerky? I got some from swamp town."
  530. [01:37] <Savage> "Sure~" Savage hurries to Rock's side like an excited kid at the prospect of FOOD
  531. 06[01:38] * Rock rips off another piece for Savage... which should last the rest of the day for him. Five days left of jerky... "...I should have gotten some more."
  532. 06[01:41] * Alexei just continues on, offering his flask to Tentra. "Is good learn how start day in Soviet Sinnoh - with shot of vodka!"
  533. [01:41] <Tentra> She mumbles and takes a swig.
  534. [01:41] <Savage> "You should have made some when you killed that horse," Savage answers Rock, nodding sagely (as if) as he munches on jerky.
  535. [01:42] <Alexei> "...was such a fabulous horse." Alexei mutters.
  536. [01:42] <Alexei> "Better kill ugly cow instead."
  537. [01:42] <~CounterBeard> Speaking of ugly cows~
  538. [01:42] <~CounterBeard> One of rocks eggs starts to hatch.

  541. [01:43] <Tentra> "We...have a feeling it won't be the last we see of the horse," she says, holding the spirit egg.
  542. [01:43] <Rock_> !dm9001 lastlines #5
  543. [01:43] <Rock_> "Wha?"
  544. [01:44] <Alexei> "...Did horse go into egg?" Alexei's jaw drops.
  545. 06[01:44] * Rock_ looks at the egg about to hatch.
  546. [01:44] <~CounterBeard> The egg starts to wiggle. And crack. and wiggle.
  547. [01:44] <~CounterBeard> Until a horn peeks out.
  548. 06[01:44] * Rock_ puts the egg on the ground and watches it for a bit.
  549. [01:44] <~CounterBeard> And then another, horn and then an afro.
  550. [01:44] <Tentra> "Possibly.." she puts it back away.
  551. [01:44] <~CounterBeard> An ittybittyone.

  556. [01:45] <Rock> "What in the world is that?"
  557. [01:45] <Tentra> "Poofy...hair."
  558. 06[01:45] * Rock scans it with his Pokedex.
  559. [01:45] <Alexei> "That is very unique hairstyle! What is called?"
  560. [01:45] <Rock> "No idea."
  561. [01:45] <~CounterBeard> Bouffalant the bash bull pokemon.
  562. [01:46] <Savage> "It's like a pillow."
  563. [01:46] <Rock> "..."
  564. [01:46] <~CounterBeard> It loos and rolls out of its egg. It looks around confused.
  565. [01:46] <Rock> "I guess I have to take you now, don't I."
  566. [01:46] <Rock> "Biter. Tell him who I am."
  567. [01:47] <~CounterBeard> Biter nods and gets to work with the mind mojo. Eventually the litle hefer waddles over on unsteady legs and looks up at Rock looing again.
  568. 06[01:48] * Rock takes out a Poke Ball and moves it towards the bull.
  569. [01:49] <~CounterBeard> It just watches staring at the pokeball with its big brown cow eyes.
  570. [01:49] <Tentra> "That was the most adorable capture ever."
  571. [01:50] <Rock> "So,.. Bouffalant... Bouf. Fa. Lant."
  572. [01:50] <Rock> "...Boof. How about I name you Boof?"

  583. [01:52] <~CounterBeard> (Well quirky is + hp - sp def)
  584. [01:52] <Tentra> (yeah quirky is ^)
  585. [01:52] <Rock> (Oh. Never mind.)
  586. [01:52] <Rock> "So, how about Boof? Wanna come with me?"
  587. [01:53] <~CounterBeard> "Boooou" It nods its little afro swinging in the wind.
  588. 06[01:53] * Rock rolls the Pokeballs towards the bull.
  589. [01:53] <~CounterBeard> (Also if you ever get it groomed it is totally getting jerry curls)
  590. [01:53] <Rock> -s
  591. [01:53] <Tentra> (this is entirely too adorable.)
  592. [01:54] <Tentra> (almost criminally cute)
  593. [01:54] <~CounterBeard> It beeps the button with its nose and ZOIP it goes in.
  594. 06[01:55] * Rock takes the ball. "Alright. Ready to keep going?" And Rock is already walking again.
  595. 06[01:56] * Alexei shrugs and continues. How's the environment around us looking?
  596. [01:56] <Tentra> Tentra is already up ahead a bit, still lazing along.
  597. [01:58] <~CounterBeard> The woods seem to start to thin as you spot smoke spirals coming up ahead. Must be that town, isn't too far off.
  598. 06[01:58] * Rock checks the map
  599. [02:00] <Rock> "Okay. Looks like we'll need to stay in the village for a day."
  600. [02:02] <Alexei> "What is in village? Hope it is not shithole country village like find in middle of Soviet Sinnoh. Go there in winter and not even find pub with drink for be merry. Only serve melted snow."
  601. [02:02] <Tentra> "Hope they got an inn... and no scarves."
  602. [02:03] <Alexei> "Hmph. Double scarf is most fabulous."
  603. [02:04] <~CounterBeard> You reach the town in about a half hour. The few houses there seem to be in good condition. It mostly looks to be a collection of families and a general store.
  604. [02:04] <Rock> "...we reached... much sooner than expected."
  605. 06[02:04] * Rock checks the time.
  606. [02:04] <~CounterBeard> It is just past noon.
  607. [02:05] <Tentra> Tentra walks up to the general store. "Might be the best place to ask about the town?"
  608. [02:06] <Rock> "...one hour that way, one hour back... alright. I'm going to go check out a Triface base. You guys want to come along?"
  609. [02:06] <Savage> "Already? We just got here~"
  610. [02:06] <Rock> "...okay, we CAN check out what they're selling, first."
  611. [02:07] <Alexei> "....What. There is Triforce base? Alexei is need to sharpen sword!"
  612. [02:08] <Rock> "Yeah. Near here."
  613. [02:09] <Alexei> "Then we rest and then is time for raid base!"
  614. [02:09] <Tentra> "What...base?"
  615. [02:10] <~CounterBeard> The general store is just a small shack with an open counter. A little wizened man seems to be sitting on a stool behind it.
  616. [02:10] <Rock> "Alright." Rock goes in the shop and checks out the stock... looking for weapons/materials, like usual.
  617. [02:11] <Savage> Savage looks to Tentra and shares her look of confusion; then again, stuff involving Triface usually seems to go right over his head, Tentra has probably noticed by now.
  618. [02:11] <~CounterBeard> The man seems to have mostly naturaly grown herbs and the like. He does have a dagger hanging in the back though.
  619. 06[02:12] * Rock stares at the dagger (dammit now I wish Rock had WM Redux). "...is that for sale?"
  620. [02:13] <~CounterBeard> "What?" The man blinks and leans forward.
  621. [02:13] <Rock> "The dagger."
  622. [02:14] <Tentra> Tentra shrugs back at Savage. Figures the natives don't know diddly.
  623. [02:15] <~CounterBeard> "Oh that? Well, I guess. S'just my old skinnin' knife. Haven't used it in a while might need some sharpening..."
  624. [02:15] <Rock> "...skinning, huh?"
  625. [02:15] <~CounterBeard> "Yeaup."
  626. [02:15] <Rock> "I do a lot of skinning nowadays... how much is it?"
  627. 06[02:15] * Alexei wanders the outskirts of town, looking for anything that catches his eye.
  628. [02:15] <~CounterBeard> The General Store also offeres berries, Power Herbs and Revival powders (Sweet)
  629. [02:17] <~CounterBeard> "Eh...Its a bit dull. And old. I'll give it to yah for say 600. Not sure why you want it though..."
  630. [02:17] <Tentra> (what kinda burries we lookin' at? :3)
  631. [02:19] <~CounterBeard> Pomeg, Hondew and Spelon.

  636. [02:20] <Tentra> (HONDEW BERRIES. HMMM interesting, thinking.)
  637. [02:21] <Savage> Savage starts browsing, telling his companions not to eat any--no, seriously Tessy, I have to pay for these you can't just munch on them D:<

  650. [02:23] <Tentra> After careful consideration Tentra elects not to buy any berries. It was rather tempting though! "Sir, is there an inn in town?"
  651. [02:24] <~CounterBeard> "Well. Not really. We hardly keep the shop open. Old Knocktowl let us know you folks were coming though, s'why we opened up."
  652. 03[02:25] * KujiUn (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) has joined #TalentScouts
  653. 03[02:25] * KujiUn is now known as Rock_
  654. [02:25] <Rock_> (Sorry. The satellite is breaking up.)
  655. [02:25] <Tentra> (yeah I was during burry math myself ahahha)
  656. [02:26] <Rock_> !dm9001 lastlines #20
  657. [02:26] <Tentra> "Old Knocktowl?"
  658. [02:26] <Alexei> (who WASN'T doing berry math?)
  659. 02[02:26] * Rock (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) Quit (Ping timeout)
  660. [02:26] <Savage> "Okay, okay," he taps Tessy on the head playfully and picks up a nice big juicy Hondew. "You can snack on this one~"
  661. [02:26] <Tentra> (I'd need metric fucktons of hondew, might as well make him a mixed sweeper :3c)
  662. [02:26] <Rock_> Sharpen, sharpen, sharpen... Rock looks to the knife to see if it's working.
  663. [02:26] <~CounterBeard> "My wifes old hoothoot. Nicknamed the boor thing Knocktowl as it seems he dosen't want to evolve."
  664. [02:27] <~CounterBeard> "That'll be 250 m'boy."
  665. [02:27] <~CounterBeard> (Also If you remember Tentra Savage has a berry planter."
  666. [02:28] <Savage> (Yes I do. ...Also what do Power Herbs / Revival Powders do, anyway?)
  667. [02:28] <Tentra> "Oh, I think Alexi was having a staring contest with it."
  668. [02:29] <Rock_> "..."
  669. [02:29] <~CounterBeard> (Revival Podwers set your pokemon from negative HPS to 10 but are the flavour stated. Power Herbs if I remember correctly...Get rid of charge time moves. Fly, Solar beam Ect.)
  670. 06[02:29] * Rock_ puts the barely sharpened dagger away and goes looking for Alexei with his GPS.
  671. [02:29] <Savage> (Costs on them? They might be more useful to me :3c )
  672. 06[02:30] * Alexei is wandering around the outside of town with no luck apparently. "Where is Triface base? Must have hid carefully!"
  673. [02:30] <Rock_> "...alright, follow me." And Rock starts making the trek to the Triface base.
  674. [02:30] <Tentra> (I would need 6 berries to do it, hmmm. I didn't expect to get berries so gave him a derpy nature for it. eh I'll just keep him mixed sweeper.)
  675. [02:31] <Alexei> (Lucario gets better special moves anyway, doesn't it?)
  676. [02:32] <~CounterBeard> (Revivals are 600 Each, Power Herbs are....250)
  677. 06[02:33] * Alexei follows for base raiding.
  678. [02:33] <Tentra> (it's got a pretty nifty movepool in general.)
  679. [02:33] <~CounterBeard> And Rock the knife seems...Sharperish? You'll need to spend some time at a smith or using a grinder or some such to get it as sharp as you'd like.
  680. [02:33] <Rock_> (Yep, yep. Got it.)
  681. 03[02:33] * Rock_ is now known as Rock
  682. [02:34] <Rock> (Of course, I AM a smith. :p)
  683. [02:34] <Savage> Savage, not being the kind of person who regularly spends money, ends up spending a little on the herbal medicine. (3 powders, an herb, and the Hondew berry... 2300)
  684. [02:34] <~CounterBeard> (Heh. You could of course..Augment it with some Materials but we will discuss this later.)
  685. 06[02:34] * Rock follows his GPS to the base.
  686. [02:36] <~CounterBeard> The base is a few miles off, the path is a bit more over grown than that closer to town. It is almost overgrown to an alarming degree the trees are almost close enough to block out the sun completly.
  687. [02:37] <Rock> "...so, one base is completely clear of trees, the other is completely... filled with them."
  688. [02:37] <Alexei> "...You have been to base before?"
  689. [02:38] <Rock> "Rikala went with me back in... swamp town."
  690. [02:38] <Tentra> "That is awefully...shady." She says, pointing at the collection of sun blocking trees.
  691. [02:38] <Alexei> "Why did not tell me? Could have helped!"
  692. [02:38] <Rock> ohmygodwhendidTentragethere. "What!?"
  693. [02:38] <Savage> Savage ends up hurrying to catch up. Though he doesn't exactly look too thrilled about this prospect.
  694. [02:39] <Tentra> "The...oh nevermind."
  695. 06[02:39] * Rock just keeps following the GPS.
  696. [02:40] <Alexei> "See? Now all comrade is go fight Triface. Is better as group!"
  697. [02:41] <Rock> "...yes, but unfortunately they aren't going to like our methods of disposing Triface. This isn't going to work out well, isn't it." And Rock visibly frowns.
  698. [02:42] <Alexei> "We will see." Alexei downs some vodka and looks for an entrance. "Maybe when Triface is try kill them, they have no problem try kill Triface!"
  699. [02:43] <Savage> " 'Course not. You're planning on just firing away and killing them all without even thinking about it, are you?"
  700. [02:44] <Tentra> "We're still unsure just what this is all about," she says.
  701. [02:44] <Rock> Rock just keeps going on, relaxing his face. "Done it once. Even Rikala said it was okay when I did it."
  702. 06[02:45] * Rock puts on his gas mask and... reaches the base, maybe? Idunno
  703. [02:46] <Savage> "..." Savage still seems unhappy about something, but can't really seem to put words to it.
  704. [02:46] <~CounterBeard> You finall reach the...Base? It seems to be a set of buildings. Both partially underground at this point. The windows have no glass, or screens and what you can make of what was once a door is broken down, hanging off its hinges.
  705. 06[02:47] * Rock goes inside the building through the broken down door, readying his bow.
  706. [02:48] <Tentra> "This place seems long abandoned. You'd think if operatives were using it they'd at least fix the door."
  707. 06[02:48] * Alexei draws his sword, takes a swig of vodka, and looks for signs of life as he circles around near the door.
  708. [02:48] <Savage> Savage keeps an eye out, but doesn't quite head in. "...I dunno, it looks kinda homey to me? ...In a weird way."
  709. [02:48] <Rock> "...same thing with the other base. I suggest you all be on your guard."
  710. [02:49] <Tentra> Tentra shrugs, her halberd is in hand.
  711. [02:50] <~CounterBeard> The building seems to have once been an office. Once used desks seems to be rotted through, by both time and pokemon habitation. There is a stairwell going down in one of the corners.
  712. 06[02:51] * Rock goes down the stairwell.
  713. [02:51] <Tentra> Tentra is tagging along with Alexi, not entirely concerned.
  714. [02:52] <Alexei> "Tentra, can you use voodoo power to see if people are in base?"
  715. [02:52] <Savage> "...I'm gonna, um... stand guard out here, okay?" Savage waits at the door.
  716. [02:53] <Tentra> She looks to the trees around the base. "It may work..."
  717. [02:53] <~CounterBeard> Gonna try Tree Hugger?
  718. [02:53] <Tentra> (yes)
  719. [02:53] <Tentra> She walks to one of the trees, placing a hand on it. "Old one, have people passed through here recently?"
  720. [02:54] <Rock> (This will not end well, will it.)
  721. [02:54] <Tentra> "These trees...are younger then I expected."
  722. [02:54] <Tentra> "They do not have voices yet."
  723. [02:54] <Alexei> "...YOU ARE TALK TO TRESS TOO?"
  724. [02:55] <Rock> "SHUSH!"
  725. [02:55] <Tentra> She looks sort of embarrased. "...yes."
  726. [02:55] <Tentra> (we are no where near you Rock.)
  727. [02:55] <Alexei> (yeah, we're not even inside)
  728. [02:55] <Rock> If Rock was there, he'd have beat down Alexei for SHOUTING.
  729. [02:56] <Alexei> "How do trees talk back? What does sound like?"
  730. [02:56] <Tentra> "The...only other thing we can do is AEGI can turn invisible."
  731. 06[02:56] * Rock looks around the basement like thing... what's there?
  732. [02:56] <Tentra> "Old wise men," she says.
  733. [02:57] <~CounterBeard> The down stairs is full of filing cabniets as well a Steel Door, though it looks a bit rusty.
  734. 06[02:58] * Rock takes out Biter. "Biter, notify me of anybody not known near here." As Rock checks the filing cabinets.
  735. [02:58] <Alexei> "Then maybe just go inside."
  736. [02:59] <~CounterBeard> <Roger....Huh. Not even any other pokemon. Although Savage and his group are pretty loud.>
  737. [02:59] <Rock> "...tell them to quiet down, will ya?"
  738. 06[02:59] * Savage is actually being pretty quiet! He's kind of climbing up the side of the building a little to get a good look around.
  739. [03:00] <Tentra> Tentra shrugs and follows Alexi inside.
  740. [03:01] <~CounterBeard> <I mean I can hear them in their heads. They have big thoughts.>
  741. 06[03:01] * Alexei looks over the desks in the entrance to see if any paperwork was left behind. Or if there's a fridge that could have booze.
  742. [03:01] <Rock> "Ah." And Rock still looks through the filing cabinets.
  743. [03:02] <Alexei> In fact, any indication there's power in this building or not?
  744. [03:02] <~CounterBeard> In the desks there is mostly just moldy papers that are unreadable. He does find some nifty paper weights though. One is even shaped like a feebas.
  745. [03:02] <Tentra> "...Alexi, any alcohol left behind is going to be skunked. There is no power here!"
  746. 06[03:02] * Alexei pockets the feebas paperweight. "Remind me of Niko before evolve."
  747. [03:03] <~CounterBeard> There is. No power. You are all searching via what sunlight is coming from the stairwell entrance.
  748. [03:03] <Rock> Welp. Rock turns on his flashlight. Good thing he has that.
  749. 06[03:04] * Alexei sends out Stolichnaya, whose antenna-bulbs glow brightly as the pair descends the stairwell.
  750. [03:06] <~CounterBeard> With combined antenna and flash light powers the area is well illuminated. The filing cabinets are full of haphazardly arranged folders.
  751. [03:06] <~CounterBeard> Looking for anything in particular?
  752. [03:07] <Alexei> Any documents that would detail logistics. Stuff like supply orders and whatnot that might demonstrate the size of the organization.
  753. 06[03:07] * Rock looks for anything considering Triface, the Royal Army, the League, or... themselves.
  754. [03:07] <Rock> But... he leaves the stuff to Alexei.
  755. [03:08] <Rock> "Alexei. Go look through the cabinets. I'm going to continue on."
  756. [03:08] <Tentra> Tentra looks through the file cabinets with gusto!
  757. 06[03:08] * Rock examines the steel door, attempting to push and pull it open.
  758. [03:09] <Rock> (...geez, does Tentra have teleportation powers, or are you just forgetting to have transition lines? It's starting to creep me out.)
  759. [03:09] <Tentra> (um...she's following Alexi? I don't see the problem.)
  760. [03:09] <Savage> (Yeah; it's Savage who's not with you guys right now :3c )
  761. [03:09] <Tentra> "AEGI, help us with this," she says as she starts to dig through them.
  762. [03:10] <~CounterBeard> There are lists of supply orders, delivary times as well as requisition forms. In the cabinet Tentra is going through she finds several documents relating to Agent Oran and another compound that seems to have the opposite affect...
  763. [03:10] <Rock> (Ah... there's not lines like that, so...)
  764. [03:10] <~CounterBeard> AEGI floats close and blinks at the paperwork.
  765. [03:10] <~CounterBeard> Also Alexei give me a Perception Check for fun.
  766. [03:10] <Alexei> 1d20-2
  767. [03:10] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, 1d20-2: 16 [1d20=18]
  768. 06[03:11] * Rock opens the steel door and goes through the doorway.
  769. [03:11] <Tentra> "What's this Agent Oran stuff?"
  770. [03:11] <~CounterBeard> The door protests a bit but eventually gives way. it seems the hinges mostly just rusted through.
  771. [03:12] <Rock> "Agent Oran?
  772. 06[03:12] * Alexei carefully goes through the documents, drawing on his experience as a general to assess what this supply info means about Triface.
  773. [03:12] <Rock> "It's... what did Rikala say?"
  774. [03:12] <Rock> "It's... stuff that destroys plants."
  775. [03:13] <Rock> "It also makes the Pokemon freaky. Isn't that right, Biter?"
  776. [03:14] <~CounterBeard> The supply info mostly lists and places into categories. Food, linens ect. It seems that it is enough paperwork to deal with an entire war front of supplies.
  777. 06[03:14] * Alexei swigs some vodka and checks the date on these papers. At that point in time, they had enough to supply an army...
  778. 06[03:15] * Rock just GOES to the room that the steel door was blocking now.
  779. [03:15] <Tentra> "so...then this chemical can cause spontanious plant growth and...wonder what it'd do to Pokemon."
  780. [03:16] <~CounterBeard> The documents go into detail about how it was first tested as a pokemon growth hormone. But failed, only working on some species of Grass Types.
  781. [03:17] <Tentra> "Hm, interesting."
  782. [03:17] <~CounterBeard> <Yeah...I don't like it.>
  783. [03:18] <~CounterBeard> As you go deeper rock you notice this seems to be a supply warehouse.
  784. [03:18] <~CounterBeard> Boxes and tubs and more boxes.
  785. [03:18] <Tentra> She continues shuffling around the file cabinets, totally doin' her librarian scribe thing.
  786. [03:18] <Rock> "..."
  787. [03:18] <Rock> Rock looks inside the boxes and tubs and more boxes.
  788. [03:18] <Tentra> (but what about tubs in boxes)
  789. 02[03:18] * Alexei (nnscript@sux-98B21251.hsd1.il.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
  790. [03:19] <Savage> Savage sits himself on the rooftop, playing lookout. ...Kind of half-assedly, admittedly. He's got kind of a sulking expression though, idly chattering with his friends to pass the time.
  791. [03:20] <~CounterBeard> Savage roll me some of them delicious Perception checks.
  792. [03:21] <Savage> 1d20-3 How many specifically? Here have one to start
  793. [03:21] <DiceMaid-9001> Savage, How many specifically? Here have one to start: 16 [1d20=19]
  794. [03:21] <Savage> (>Savage succeeds on a perception check)
  795. 03[03:21] * Alexei (nnscript@sux-98B21251.hsd1.il.comcast.net) has joined #TalentScouts
  796. [03:21] <Alexei> !dm9001 lastlines #20
  797. [03:21] <~CounterBeard> Rock, you find lots of first aide kits, bedding linens, uniforms, and some old fashioned MRE's...Or what could have been MRE's.
  798. 06[03:22] * Rock takes a uniform and looks at it
  799. [03:22] <~CounterBeard> Huh. Your berrybud seems to be acting sorta odd. All quiet like. Not as active.
  800. [03:23] <Savage> "...?" Savage leans in towards him and pokes him playfully. "Something up, Gabbery?" Yeah, he would definitely notice something like that.
  801. 06[03:23] * Alexei shoves the documents he was looking at into his pack and continues looking through the cabinet. Is there anything else of interest?
  802. [03:24] <~CounterBeard> Rock it seems to be standard fatigues. A tan shirt, and tan pants, a pair of old leather boots and a helmet. There is a little patch on the left shoulder of the shirt. A shield with a sword faced over it hilt up and a crown above them both.
  803. [03:24] <~CounterBeard> "Cherr..." It tries to react but it seems sort of sleepy it closes its eyes and starts to doze.
  804. [03:24] <Tentra> Tentra is still shuffling around, but nothing nifty so far.
  805. [03:25] <~CounterBeard> Percept Me Tentra.
  806. [03:25] <Rock> Rock puts a full set of uniforms in his pack along with a first aid kit before going back to the records room. "Alexei. Rikala. Biter. Found anything?"
  807. 06[03:26] * Alexei grunts and shoves a sheaf of papers into Rock's hands. The ones detailing the massive scale of their supply operations.
  808. [03:26] <Tentra> 1d20+5
  809. [03:26] <DiceMaid-9001> Tentra, 1d20+5: 16 [1d20=11]
  810. [03:26] <Savage> "..." Savage doesn't like this. Watching for the others can wait! He's being a derp and figuring it's because the place is exposed to the sun (that doesn't even make sense Savage, Cherrim are grass types). He scoops Gabbery up into his arms and starts getting back down, heading back towards the woods. He'll watch from over here.
  811. [03:26] <Tentra> (why can't we hold all these 16's?)
  812. [03:26] <Rock> "..." Rock looks for the date. The date is always the first thing you look for.
  813. [03:29] <~CounterBeard> Tentra finds what seems to be a personal log. "March 25. 4th Yea f he War" No reply rom ome Bas . Aba doning p st."
  814. [03:30] <~CounterBeard> Berrybuddy seems to be doing sorta better away from the building...But still asleep...And a little larger than before.
  815. [03:30] <~CounterBeard> 1d100
  816. [03:30] <DiceMaid-9001> CounterBeard, 1d100: 91 [1d100=91]
  817. [03:30] <Tentra> "This place is long abandoned, we think." She shows the others the paper.
  818. [03:30] <Rock> "..."
  819. [03:31] <Alexei> "Yes, can tell from look at building alone."
  820. 06[03:31] * Rock checks the badge box and counts the number of badges.
  821. [03:31] <~CounterBeard> 16 with a place missing for the 17. One for every type.
  822. [03:31] <Rock> "...we aren't done here."
  823. [03:32] <Savage> "...?" Savage headtilts a little, and bounces Gabbery in his arms a little. Yeah... that's kinda weird. Now that he looks at the building... it is kinda weird from the outside. Maybe something else is going on?
  824. 06[03:32] * Rock puts away the badge box and looks around. "Biter, are you sure they're no one else near here except us?"
  825. [03:33] <Tentra> "...what's up with the box?"
  826. [03:33] <~CounterBeard> <Nope. Just us. Savage went a little ways away. His Talking Berry friend is acting weird...Something about being tired but wanting to play? Felt like it was gonna take a reaaaaaally long nap.>
  827. [03:34] <Rock> "...nothing." Rock gives Alexei the papers. "...there's something not right about this place..."
  828. [03:34] <Tentra> Tentra gathers up the papers, puts them in a bag and looks around. "Well there's nothing down here it seems."
  829. 06[03:34] * Alexei takes them back. "Oh, and this..." he hands Rock another set of papers, this one containing highly detailed health information on a Sinnoh General and his eventual decline into death. "This man is die 20 year ago."
  830. 06[03:37] * Rock glances at the information and shoves the papers back to Alexei. "Sinnoh stuff for Sinnoh people..." ...Rock takes a good look at the room again. Filing cabinets, steel door, stairwell... is there something he's missing?
  831. [03:38] <Alexei> "Is not point, is show Triface is have highly advance information network. Maybe proof of military connection. I really am worry Rock's brain is actually rock."
  832. [03:39] <~CounterBeard> As far as you can all tell, this was an out of the way supply depot and message hub. It houses several tons of crates and barrels of supplies, with ample space to store more.
  833. 02[03:40] * Mons (Mons@sux-530AA3AB.nap.wideopenwest.com) Quit (Quit: ~)
  834. [03:40] <Rock> So... no. Rock heads back up the stairs, looking around the room with the desks and the starwell and the entrance again. There is definitely something he's missing...
  835. [03:41] <Tentra> Tentra walks back outside, and looks around curiously. "Really don't think there's anything too horrifying here..."
  836. 06[03:42] * Alexei sighs "Am think Rock is get stupider all time. No wonder is not drink alcohol, would become too stupid for live if drunk." he continues looking around in the warehouse area, seeing if any crates or barrels have strange labels. He shoves a few around to see if anything's hidden.
  837. [03:43] <~CounterBeard> A few of the barrels slosh around but there seems to be no hidden anything. The labels on the barrels are fairly unassuming "Chemical Hazard: Do not ingest"
  838. [03:44] <Alexei> (And there are no more doors leading further in?)
  839. 06[03:44] * Rock walks out of the building, Biter in tow (again). He looks for other rooms he hasn't been in yet...
  840. [03:45] <~CounterBeard> (No more doors. Just a storage area with stuff in it and lots of space for more stuff.)
  841. [03:45] <Rock> "..."
  842. [03:46] <Tentra> Tentra walks over to Savage. "The place seems empty...not sure what the others are expecting."
  843. [03:46] <Savage> "...That's a relief," Savage relaxes a little, leaning against a tree, with sleepygabbery still cradled in his arms
  844. 06[03:46] * Alexei leaves the building as well, but not without a few last checks, looking behind some file cabinets that kind of thing.
  845. [03:47] <~CounterBeard> Alexei finds...Some dust Lopunnies and paperclips. Paperclips will outlast any war.
  846. [03:47] <Rock> "...where is he when I need him."
  847. 06[03:48] * Alexei chugs down more vodka, then finds Rock. "Rock, why is not find anyone yet? Maybe is no one left?"
  848. [03:49] <Rock> "...I'll just wait here for the moment. You guys go back to the village."
  849. 06[03:50] * Rock takes off his gas mask and puts it back in the pack, looking at the uniform.
  850. [03:50] <Tentra> "They seem on edge, but...nothing here at all but papers and old supplies. Well, that might explain why your friend here is sleepy, but still."
  851. [03:51] <Savage> "...Huhn?" Savage fails to comprehend
  852. [03:51] <Tentra> "There were papers about this chemical called Agent Oran, that does odd things to grass Pokemon."
  853. [03:52] <Savage> 1d20-4 Derp?
  854. [03:52] <DiceMaid-9001> Savage, Derp?: 14 [1d20=18]
  855. [03:52] <~CounterBeard> (Oh Agent Oran(ge) And your as of yet unamed counterpart. Too bady there wasn't any here. =3)
  856. 06[03:52] * Alexei looks around for any unexplored buildings and entrances.
  857. [03:53] <Savage> Savage, for once, does not derp. "...Wait, stuff like what?"
  858. [03:53] <~CounterBeard> Roll me the grandaddy of all Perception checks Alexei. This is for all the tamales.
  859. [03:53] <Alexei> 1d20-2
  860. [03:53] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, 1d20-2: 15 [1d20=17]
  861. [03:53] <Tentra> "The papers didn't say exactly what."
  862. [03:53] <Rock> (...oh, wait, Alexei gets to roll it but when I checked... -_-;)
  863. [03:53] <Tentra> "Rock and Alexi seemed to know more about it."
  864. [03:55] <Savage> "...Well, it better not be anything bad..." he looks down to Gabbery all worried, and pokes him in the berrycheek. "You're okay, right girl?"
  865. [03:56] <~CounterBeard> It does little berrysnores and curls into a ball.
  866. [03:57] <Alexei> 1d20-2
  867. [03:57] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, 1d20-2: 5 [1d20=7]
  868. [03:57] <Tentra> "...Or maybe it's just sleepy."
  869. [03:57] <Savage> "...d'awww" he gets all smiley at this.
  870. 06[03:57] * Alexei gets up and goes back into the building, looking around the supply room again.
  871. 06[03:57] * Rock just stares out of the building, keeping guard, every once in a while checking the badge box.
  872. [03:57] <Alexei> What, if anything, is still good here, and are there signs of recent visitation aside from the Scoots?
  873. [04:00] <~CounterBeard> The barrels and boxes of uniforms and supplies are the same. From what you can tell no one has been in there. Though the barrels are only about half full, instead of to the brim.
  874. [04:01] <Alexei> Possible to tell what's in the barrels?
  875. [04:01] <~CounterBeard> Wanna open the barrel up? =3
  876. 06[04:01] * Rock takes off his boots and tries on the pair of boots he got from the supply room.
  877. [04:01] <Alexei> 1d20-2
  878. [04:01] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, 1d20-2: 12 [1d20=14]
  879. 06[04:02] * Alexei goes to retrieve Rock. "I think should look at barrel, see if have poison inside. Or maybe vodka. But is good idea wear gas mask first."
  880. [04:02] <~CounterBeard> They are oddly comforable Rock.
  881. [04:02] <~CounterBeard> Real lived in broken in quality.
  882. 06[04:03] * Rock puts his boots in the pack and goes down to the supply room, putting his gas mask on.
  883. [04:04] <Rock> "Biter, go wait outside, okay?"
  884. [04:06] <~CounterBeard> <Okay.> Biter waddles outside to go coo over adorable berry snores.
  885. 06[04:06] * Rock uses his sword to pry open one of the barrels.
  886. [04:07] <~CounterBeard> The top comes off witha bit of a fight. The barrels is full of...Water.
  887. [04:08] <Rock> "..."
  888. 06[04:08] * Rock lifts the gas mask out a bit, just to check the smell.
  889. [04:09] <~CounterBeard> It smells of slightly stale water and air.
  890. [04:09] <Rock> "..."
  891. 06[04:09] * Rock checks the label of the barrel he just opened.
  892. [04:09] <Tentra> (oh god brace for hilarity)
  893. [04:11] <~CounterBeard> "Chemical Hazard: Do not Injest."
  894. [04:12] <Alexei> (oh man, so they took all that shit already)
  895. [04:12] <Rock> "..."
  896. [04:12] <Rock> "HEY, BITER! COME BACK HERE, WILL YA?"
  897. [04:14] <~CounterBeard> <Uh okay. I was about to go tickle Berry...Whats up?>
  898. [04:14] <Rock> "...check this water for me, will ya?"
  899. [04:16] <Savage> Savage waves to Biter as he waddles off. "You be careful, little nephew. That place might be bad for you, okay?"
  900. [04:16] <~CounterBeard> Biter sniffs it and peers inside. <Looks like normal water...Has funny residue in it. Makes my head sorta swimmy.>
  901. [04:17] <Rock> "...alright. Thanks. You can go back to Savage now."
  902. 06[04:17] * Rock checks the badge box again...
  903. [04:17] <~CounterBeard> Biter shrugs and goes back. <Just wanted me to check some water for some reason!>
  904. [04:18] <~CounterBeard> Still 16 badges.
  905. [04:18] <Rock> "
  906. 06[04:18] * Rock comes back up, gas mask off. "Alright, Alexei. Nothing strange there. Maybe there was something, but nothing now."
  907. [04:19] <Alexei> "What? Barrel is say is dangerous chemical. Is gone now?"
  908. [04:20] <Rock> "Gone."
  909. [04:21] <Tentra> (oh jeez it's 5 AM D: we wrapping up soon? haha)
  910. [04:21] <Alexei> "Then who is take? Place was abandon in war only 4 year in. Is clear someone else is come later and take supply. That is why so empty." Alexei drinks some vodka. "You get it now?"
  911. [04:21] <Savage> Savage totally welcomes Biter back and relaxes with him and the others; which turns into playtime. It's like a big game, with Gabbery quietly sleeping in the middle of it.
  912. [04:22] <~CounterBeard> (Yeah we should wrap up soon. I stopped makign sense about an hour ago.)
  913. [04:23] <Savage> (You babies I CAN STILL FIGHT)
  914. [04:23] <Rock> "...Alexei. Go away. I'm going to keep guard of this place for a little bit."
  915. [04:23] <Alexei> "Pah, is rude way speak to comrade. No, I have investigate to do."
  916. [04:24] <Rock> "Fine. Don't become a liability."
  917. [04:24] <Rock> (Yeah, I'm getting tired myself. Sorry.)
  918. [04:24] <~CounterBeard> (So what is plan Rock and Alexei are going to Guard abandoned warehouse? while the others have a pokeparty?)
  919. [04:25] <Rock> About.
  920. [04:25] <Alexei> "Big talk for young hooligan with no experience in war." Alexei goes off to take a better look at the documents, see what supplies are missing.
  921. [04:25] <Alexei> (yeah, uh, something like that I guess, unless Tentra and Savage have other plans)
  922. 06[04:26] * Rock starts changing into the uniform, looking it over.
  923. [04:26] <Tentra> (I guess, yes. Tentra's kinda lost in all this so yeah, Isaac and Miria play with the others)
  924. [04:27] <Savage> (Savage is probably gonna start looking around the town and scouting Gym Leaders or something since assumedly this is Reeftown?)
  925. [04:27] <Rock> (It isn't.0
  926. [04:27] <Savage> (Nobody told Savage this :3c )
  927. [04:28] <Rock> (True.)
  928. 06[04:29] * Rock is by now completely changed in the full military uniform, shirt, fatigues, helmet and all.
  929. [04:29] <~CounterBeard> And then suddenly rock was the enemy.
  930. [04:29] <Rock> (>_>)
  931. [04:30] <Rock> (Anyways, I'm almost falling off of chair. /session?)
  932. [04:30] <Savage> (I think so?)
  933. [04:30] <~CounterBeard> For it being in the forest you all hear a very loud rumbling roaring sound. Like some sort of engine. It seems to be coming from the tree line. Investigate befroe / session or next session?
  934. [04:30] <Rock> (...dammit.)
  935. 06[04:30] * ~CounterBeard ...Hmmm /session it is.
