Warlord:

Agi:

Agi:
there's just really little comminication this game
Agi:
rly little hype too
Warlord:
Well I've been showing up
Agi:
not that I can blame anyone for the latter
Agi:
yeh
Warlord:
Start has been uneventful, based off meme lake it seems this campaign is supposed to be a bit uneventful
Agi:
it's not SUPPOSED to be
Agi:
it just ends up being
Agi:
I am not sold on the travel taking center stage in the slightest
Warlord:
having a more casual campaign isn't the worst thing in the world for me right now but obviously it has to pick up eventually.
Emergency has connected.

Thrice:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KU-P03Arxss
Thrice:
And that's okay
Thrice:
Anyway, lessgo. Last time on Seinfeld, you faced off against some amorphous beings that were likely of no import, this time, you've just woken up and started to get ready to leave the haven of flowers and foilage formed by the complete and total eradication of said amorphousoties. Are you still heading toward the bay/Connough, or are you changing it up
Warlord:
I don't see a reason not to
Warlord:
With full health and enough food we can try exploring I guess
Warlord:
to find facking plot

Nick:
"Still can't believe all that stuff that happened yesterday. Never come across an uh... what was she again? A priestess of some sort?"

Nick:
"Whatever it was, that was crazy. Paid off, though." Nick munches down on some berries.

Nick:
"Y'all ready to go?" yeah sure explore idc
Thrice:
Indeed, remember: the berries and other herbs here are enough to fill your stomach for the day, and you also have that strange, blessed feeling, which is stronger when you're in grass. It makes it easier to move around the area, too

Ivan:
"Yeah. Gonna have to go look up more about Virizion cause...That girl was legit. That was some of the weirdest shit I've seen my whole life." He contemplated summoning her just to ask about Virizion in the future though doubted she'd approve. "Let's go. Maybe there's more weird Virizion worshippers, who knows."

Eliza:
"Yeah, I'm all set to move."
Thrice:
You snake through the forest, weaving past brambles and crawling over bug-infested logs. A drizzle begins to pour shortly into your journey, and soon heavy rain and winds howl through the trees, whipping vines and thin branches above your heads. The weather slows your progress further, but also drowns out any complaints, so as far as anyone knows, you're loving it.

Nick:
bada bah bah baaa

Nick:
This session brought to you by: WcDanolds
Ivan: (( can I release Graveler into the rain so it dies so I can eat it ))
Thrice: (( you can but it'd be tough to eat, you could feed it to Agi's geodude th ))
Thrice:
o
Ivan: (( wonderful ))
Ivan: (( but yeah I don't think rain changes anything ))
Ivan: (( realistically we would probably not explore in the rain but fuck it ))

Nick:
my Geodude isn't fuckin with me

Eliza:
Passe's walking along with Eliza to soak in the rains for its plot.

Nick:
Nick wears his overshirt over his head.

Nick:
"Greaaaat. I think that water spirit's getting its revenge on us now."

Ivan:
Ivan has jack all to use to shield himself from the rain. He has to swap his Houndour out with Enya the Dusclops because of it. "Shit, I hadn't thought of that. You think that's actually it?"

Ivan:
What he had just witnessed was weird enough he could easily believe it now.

Nick:
Nick shrugs. "How the heck should I know?"

Nick:
"Fefe's liking the rain at least."
Thrice:
Unfortunately, even the cacophonous roar of nature can't mask all noise. Just to the east of you, the distinct sound of a crashing tree pierces through the wailing winds. It happens again, accompanied by a scream this time. You follow the source of the noise to a small pond, and there you witness a huge, lumbering Pokemon bearing down on a trio of upstart Trainers. Above its head glows a strange sigil, but it fades quickly.

Fifi:
She is.

Nick:
oh neat
Thrice:
There is a new map; come in at the bottom right
Thrice:
er
Thrice:

Fifi has received initiative.

Thrice:

Ciara:
None of them seem to have noticed you yet. This thankfully includes the big guy, 4, etc. The youngest of the three Trainers scrambles to her feet after tripping on the wet grass, "Wh-why didn't that work?!"

Nick:
We uh

Nick:
We can't see it

Nick:
this makes seeing it dificil

Nick:
whereabouts is it?

Nick:
gotcha
Warlord:
okay so Chesnaught is a boss, not 4 Chesnaughts?
Nick: (( most likely, yeah./ ))

Harriet:
A girl who seems to be the leader, judging by the fact she's the only one smart enough to dress for the weather, shouts over the torrential downpour, "Where the fuck is your brother?! Didn't you say he was close just an hour ago?!"
Warlord:
I didn't scroll to the bottom first and just say two which made me believe there were two
Warlord:
*saw
Nick: (( yeah, same ))
Nick: (( but hey w/e ))
Nick: (( fukkn grass types ))

Ciara:
"Y-yeah, but he hasn't responded to the distress signals!! Aarrghh...Lucy, please, the one time anyone wants you around..."

Nick:
Nick squints through the rain. "...Crap." He quickly returns Fefe for a more suitable 'mon. "You guys feel up to playing hero again?"

Neal:
One of them seems to have noticed you, but he quickly turns back to the Big Guy, apparently not wanting to draw its attention to you

Ivan:
"Fuck yeah, it's not a legendary Pokemon but it'll do." His primary motivation was to throw his many, many balls at this thing.
Ivan: (( boss so uncatchable but he doesn't know that ))
Ivan: (( lolol ))

Eliza:
Eliza's eyes are still kinda glossed over as she finally realizes what's going on, "I sure miss caffine for these early conflicts." She rubs her eyes and gives herself two shots for energy, "Let's go get em."

Neal:
"Okay...all we have to do is just...hold it off for a minute. If we can do that, maybe we can escape.. Never had to run from a Pokemon before..."

Nick:
"Those people really look like they're in trouble - getting Valdish involved might not be a bad idea. That one's a grass type, yeah? Maybe she can calm it down somehow..."

Ivan:
"If she calms it down then she won't want me to catch it! So forget that."
Nick: (( anyway we can't do SHIT until there's an init ))
Nick has received initiative.

Nick:
"Let's get moving, team!"

Eliza:
"I need to protect these seeds for another day, time to see the light of day Benzene..."

Rampaging Pokemon:
NOW PLAYING Nanatsu no Taizai - Boar's Sin of Gluttony https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgCPe5otgpI

Rampaging Pokemon:
The Pokemon ain't a slow starter, for sure. It throws its hands to the sky, and fragments of iron ore jettison out of the ground to form a ball at its fingertips. It launches that ball into the closest offending foe! 4

Rampaging Pokemon:

Eliza: (( I can't even see what's getting brutalized so ))
Neal: (( I do not know which ))
Neal: (( vision isn't terribly important here ))
Neal: (( Can you see things now ))

Eliza:
oh yeah
Warlord:

Eliza: (( i just didn't want to charge right into the big guy ))

Ivan:
"See? They've softened 'im up for us! Fight him while he's distracted with those weaklings!"

Ciara:
"Okay, okay, um...uh... Right! Do what he told me... but DeLacy isn't useful here..." The girl releases a new Pokemon, then immediately orders it to strike!

Rampaging Pokemon:

Nick:
"I'm using one of the flares!"
Warlord has connected.

Harriet:
The girl, for her attack, reached into her hoodie and grabbed a necklace, throwing it at the big-ass pocket man. It turned into a psionic sword midway through, and...well, didn't impale very far, now did it? Her little Bug sent a wave of psychic energy at the monster.

Eliza:
Eliza throws out her ball behind the big creature, given that none of her other Pokemon may stand a chance, it's Shaman.

Nick:
"Well whatever, we have help on the way... hopefully!" Nick holds the flare upways and prays

"Well you just go and leave that to the professionals, kiddies. If you try and catch him I'll deck you."

The Chesnaught catches the ball from behind in between its fists, and crushes it. Then, it points to you - you're next you fat fuck

"WHY DOES EVERYONE STILL THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA?!"

Nick:
"Calm down, calm down! I think this is just about working!" I hope

Rampaging Pokemon:
22 And attacks the girl!But at the same time, THREE other things happen! The tree falls, the air in front of the creatures flashes intensely brown, white, and red as a mound of earth rises from the dirt into the shape of a completely different sigil, and the cage of vines behind the Chesnaught blooms into hundreds of white lillies! Both cages then fall away, revealing someone underneath!

Eliza:
its god

Nick:
TREE FALLS ON VALDIS.

Valdis:
From the vines comes a familiar face, a little worried and confused. When she sees the Chesnaught, and you, she seems to understand that she needs to act, but in what way...

Nick:
The GM should be VERY MEAN!
Thrice:
But on the LEFT, someone unknown shows up. They seem to know a little more about the situation. They hold out a sword, tempered, dark red-brown steel, to block the swing of the Chesnaught from hitting the little girl. Then, they bow, and shove their sword into the ground in apology....before noticing what's oging on on the OTHER side, and drawing it again at the sight of Valdis. And also the tree.

Skull Knight:
And then the fucking tree hits all of oyu.

Eliza:
All according to keikaku

Shaman:

Shaman:

but which way does it roll (smirk)

Ivan:
70 double dubs

Skull Knight:
The only one who seems relatively unharmed by the falling tree is the newcomer. The tree burns away as it hits them, lessening the brunt of the attack.

Valdis:
Valdis is not murdered by the tree

Valdis:
This is an exception

Valdis:
not the rule

Shaman:
she enjoyed it

Nick:
"Ack! Nonono! Why did that have to make you show up in the way of the tree?!"

Valdis:
"Ahh! I-I was not...ready for that..." The sigil burns brighter as she notices the other newcomer, "Oh! This is why you called me! I-I see...this was his nefarious doing..."

Shaman:
its because I'm a non believer

Valdis:
"My friend, it must have been helping you fight this no-gooder!"

Eliza:
stupid religious people

Eliza:
quick shaman knock another one down

Rampaging Pokemon:
YEP THAt'S EXACTLY HOW IT PLAYED OUT
Nick: (( Well what I kinda thought ))
Nick: (( There could've been a different sigil, connected to THIS guy, that was on the Chesnaught's head ))
Nick: (( So the Chesnaught was being controlled by him ))

Skull Knight:
"Oh, boy... Already, huh..."
Nick: (( despite actually being allied to her ))

Skull Knight:
This guy had an entirely different sigil

Skull Knight:
A reddish-brown one

SKULLZ

Nick:
"Actually, it was kind of kicking the crap out of these guys! We just jumped in to try and keep them from getting killed!"

Shaman:
I am an accomplice

Nick:
"...then we dropped a tree on them. Wasn't in the original plan. A-anyway, you can pacify it, right?! I'm sure we can all take on the skull guy!"

Skull Knight:
The skull knight kneels down and hugs Ciara, their distorted, husky voice, obviously altered, frightening her a little bit, "It'll be okay. I've come to get you out of here." The skull guy turns toward you, "So you're allied with her? Hmm... That's not right...Why were you fighting this monster, then?"

Eliza:
"Man, I need to help the injured, can you guys wrap up here?" She taps the remains of the tree with her cane.

Valdis:
"Oh! Whatever could they have done to anger the guardian of the forest?? Virizion herself appointed him!"

Nick:
"Because it was trying to slaughter them!"

Valdis:
the remains of the tree fall

Eliza:
yesss

Skull Knight:
"Then fight with me, if this is your enemy."

Skull Knight:
"We have the same goal - to save C---these Trainers."

Nick:
it's past my turn lol

"No slip of the tongue there, I can assure you."

Harriet:
so good choice

Harriet:
but i also can't move without vomiting blood

Harriet:
so

Ivan:
"Well you mind tellin' us what that due cause is? Because he was just mauling anything in sight. You know us. We're good subjects of Virizion. We didn't do anything to piss him off!"

Harriet:
Harriet is healed and gains 69 hit points.

Eliza:
"Up and at em, girl." She attempts to hoist up part of the tree to release our psychic friend.

Harriet:
nice

Nick:
"Look, can't you let them off with just a slap on the wrist? Or a tree to the head?"

Eliza:
you'd be surprised of the people I've raised from death

Eliza:
ie: aiteu for Sylina

"Uaaghh....Oh, this is still happening."

Eliza:
"So uh, why is this thing attacking you anyway and your people anyway, and who's that skull fellow over there?"

Valdis:
"To catch it...? That is a serious disgression, but...that is less important now! That punishment shall be issued later. Our enemy is in front of our eyes at this very moment! I had thought that was why you called me..."

Valdis:
"I did tell you to summon me immediately if you saw him!"

Nick:
"I don't even know who this guy is, he just showed up!"

Valdis:
"They attempt to undo my lord Virizion's holy blessings!"

Eliza:
Eliza is puzzled beyond belief because she wasn't equipped to know what she was to be looking for in the first place. She just kinda backs up and watches the drama unfold. Kinda like high school."

Eliza:
"Reminds me of home."*

Skull Knight:
Guzma flips their hair out of their eyes, "Ill-gotten gains ought be returned, I should think. I didn't know it was Virizion, but...do you know this Sigil? Do you understand the situation you're in right now?" They hold up a pendant of their own, in the shape of a volcano with a golden, half-star emblazoned on it. Smoke trails off the sides

Ivan:
Ivan was pretty convinced Valdis was coo coo. While he'd been perfectly content to let the other group be used as meat shields, he sided with skull man until proven otherwise. "Valdis, all they did was try and catch a wild Pokemon. That's all. There's no need to go and kill them over that. That forest 'guardian' has got to be put down. Preferably in my Pokeball!"

Valdis:
"???"

Valdis:
"That is a sigil much like mine, but if you mean to intimidate me with it, I'm afraid your threats are lost on me..."

Valdis:
She rounds on you, "Do not attempt to disrespect Virizion any further! I said before - their punishment shall be doled after this is settled!"

Valdis:
Ivan, obv

No, but you can Intercept the attack

Skull Knight:
For the record, it is a massive, MASSIVE pillar of flame

Nick:

Skull Knight:
If you wanna Intercept

Skull Knight:

Skull Knight:
Valdis is getting hit by this too

Valdis:
mettle my children

Valdis:
it is broken af

Eliza:
yes, yes it is

Skull Knight:
The knight is visibly exhausted from their attack, but not to the point of helplesless. Seems they gave up on defending themselves. Kind figured that'd end it.

Skull Knight:
"...W-why? That thing was trying to kill you!"

Eliza:
I've just got Sunglasses on, its worth

Valdis:
"...oh...that is what you meant... Entei, yes, that is..bad for us... Virizion, I will need your aid!"

Ivan:
Ivan has probably been in the process of throwing a ball for a few hours now and is pretty considerably pissed. He's not sure if he can be assed to attack anyone anymore after that. Super Potion self lol.

Nick:
"And you were trying to kill IT! What the hell, man! What's your deal with Virizion?!"
Ivan: (( super pot healing? ))
Ivan: (( can I release Pokemon and heal with super pot? ))

Eliza:
Eliza takes a couple steps back as the flame is rather hot and really fucking bright. She tries to drag the colleague doc with her.

Nick:
"If you didn't get involved, Valdis could have calmed it down!"

Eliza:
13 if needed

Ivan:
"She didn't seem to exactly be calming it down to me!"

Valdis:
"You are not as devoted as I! Not as powerful... So that will not matter."

Skull Knight:
"Would she have?"

Ivan:
Ivan is healed and gains 35 hit points.

Nick:
"Yeah well there was a bit of confusion going on, wasn't there? Along with the you-trying-to-kill it part?!"

Skull Knight:
"It was trying to attack the person I came to protect. Why would I not take it down?"

Eliza:
(i pulled Neal out of his ashes and took his soul wtih me over two spaces)

Valdis:
"DO! NOT! DISRESPECT! VIRIZION!" Your fat fuck Pokemon rubbing its ass all over Chesnaught's face has pissed Valdis off again

Ivan:
"GYAAACK!" He winces in pain. "Fuckin nature worshippin' hippie! Let's show her, skull guy!" It's not like he has any other choice at this point. After that attack it's not about profiting from the situation anymore finally. It's actually about fucking not dying, shockingly enough.

Eliza:
Eliza pulls out another syringe from her cane, and laughs to herself. "Now this is worth waiting the battle out." Stab, Revive.

Fifi:
god, there -really- should be the option to hold your init until a given action happens

Fifi:
not until a given fucking number

Fifi:
every other TTRPG has that

Skull Knight:
"A..a good idea...I just need to reach her..."

Fifi:
I just want to stare the guy down and threaten to finish him if he makes another attack

Skull Knight:
SHE IS LITERALLY MAKING THE GROUND EAT YOUR FRIEND

Nick:
but I CAN Agility Training Valdis

Nick:

Eliza:
This ain't shit boi

"This guardian is no longer the issue. You have disrespected Virizion! Kneel and voice repentance!"

Valdis:

Valdis:
You ARE her ally

Valdis:
HER ally.

Nick:
I want to roll Command.

Valdis:
I'm not sure you count as Ivan's ally.

Nick:
I will fail.

Nick:
The DC is too damn high.

Valdis:
For single one-on-one interaction, Charm is more likely

Valdis:
If you were higher than her in her Order, Command would be applicable

Valdis:
you are not

Nick:
I am not.

Eliza reloads her cane and punctures Neal's neck with a load of painkillers and a dosage of plenty of blood.

Skull Knight:
The knight looks like they want to tell Valdis to go to like, the most fiery part of hell, but then glances down at Ciara, grimaces, and swallows their pride, getting down to one knee(on top of the goddamned bramble vines, no less) "...You win, then. Virizion, forgive this girl, and I, for trespassing on your land..."

Skull Knight:
what'd you inject Neel with

Eliza:
it's just fluff so he can talk again

Neal:
So you stabbed him with his own pen

Neal:
gotcha

Neal:
"O-oowww....Who's even...I'm the only...medic..."
Enya has received initiative.

Harriet:
Harriet is uh

Harriet:
staying the fuck out of this

Eliza:
"Perhaps you dropped your glasses during the conflict? You may need to recieve a new perscription."

Eliza:
pre*
Enya: (( not using dusclops using slowpoke ))

Harriet:
She uh, did say stuff to you
Nick has received initiative.

Eliza:
demonic eyes

Valdis:
"And of you, large one?"

Nick:
Nick nudges the -shit- outta Ivan

Skull Knight:
stg if you attack me nick

Skull Knight:
imma get ethnic on your ass

Eliza:
I'm glad I'm not affiliated with either party

Eliza:
correct

Nick:
"You better figure your mind out quick, man."

Valdis:
Valdis will hold her Init down to 2.9

Valdis:
Waiting for what Ivan does
Ivan has received initiative.

Eliza:
"So uh, doctor boy, what happened and why was that big thing attacking you? Piss it off or somethin'?"
Enya: (( I have reading to do apparently ))

Neal:
"Ugh...Ciara tried to catch it...it...it didn't like that. In case you needed a refresher."

Neal:
"We weren't in good shape to start with...this place can be rough, you know..."

Eliza:
"Ah, the other girl who got knocked the fuck out. She tried to catch it again?" She nods along and helps him toward the nearest large rock to prop him up.

Ivan:
"I'm sorry! Oh, so, so very sorry. I was just trying to stop anybody from getting hurt!!! Don't forget what I did for you at the waterfall!"

Eliza:
nice

Eliza:
"As a fellow medic I'm sure you know your injuries won't heal anytime soon. You have any supplies? I'd rather not charge you guys if I can use your resources rather than mine."

Neal:
"Y-yeah... Thanks...I've got a few, but..use 'em on Harriet and Ciara first..."
10

Nick:
"Bit hammy, don't you think?" Nick mumbles.

Valdis:
Well

Valdis:
Roll Guile, Warlord

Valdis:
with a uh, a -2 penalty for not evne TRYING to be convincing

Ivan:
10

Skull Knight:
Even the skull knight looks at you with bewildered disgust

Eliza:
"Will do, sit tight, don't shift to your right side too much." Eliza uses her cane to assist her as she stands back onto her feet and moves over to Clara.

Skull Knight:
and they're a fucking skull

Eliza:
DISGUST

Valdis:
Well

Valdis:
2

Eliza:
Eliza tries not to hold her hand to her face in shock, "Pardon me, doctor here."

Eliza:
she has 1d6?

Eliza:
christ

Nick:
poor gal

Nick:
The true Teagan expy

Valdis:
"Oh, that'sh sho noble of you! I'm shorry...I never gave you the benefit of the doubt!"

Nick:
HE DIDN'T DESERVE IT

Skull Knight:
"Are...are you serious...?"

Eliza:
Eliza loses out on her focus to hold back her facepalm, and slaps her face in complete disbelief.

Eliza:
"What the fuck?"

Skull Knight:
"You're about to say something like 'DO YOU THINK I'M THAT STUPID?!' and kill him, right...?"

Eliza:
Eliza nearly misses her needle in the princess but steadies herself just before impact. (Revive)

Nick:
"Hey, man, don't... please don't ruin it for him. Please?"

Valdis:
"No! He ish right, he hash shown devotion to Virizion in the pasht! It ish my folly, to forget hish deedsh!"

Eliza:
skullman pls don't think im killing ur girl

Eliza:
"...She got her stutters back?"

Skull Knight:
Skully eyes you closely, but they've seen you un-kill everyone up to now, so they trust you

Eliza:
all according to plan

Eliza:
it was actually poison

Skull Knight:
I WILL INCINERATE YOU

Eliza:
u would'nt know except from the convulsing of her body

Ivan:
He addresses the skull guy. "And way to throw me under the bus, by the way, skull. I tried to stick up for you for a moment there back when it counted. Seems like Valdis was right about you after all."

Eliza:
but shes up now too and I'm bringing her over out of danger as well (and fracturing every bone in her body)

Ivan:
This is not actually a lie this time and what he actually feels lol.

Skull Knight:
"Oh my god."

Nick:
Nick slips in around the vines and brambles and such

Nick:
and just kinda encourages the Slowpoke off of the Chesnaught's face

Nick:
"C'mon buddy. Let's get you off of there."

Eliza:
it resists

Skull Knight:
The skull knight rubs their temples, "Argh...I can't even... Like...Agh, okay. All in the line of duty... He owes me so much for this..." The brambles fade back underground, thankfully not taking you with them.

Rampaging Pokemon:
I for one am still in favor of having Haughty Runt Bitch Stew
Warlord: (( so what even happened that made my statement not true because apparently I didn't read enough. I assume he is talking about my character. ))

Ciara:
Ciara is healed and gains 30 hit points.
Warlord: (( I am kind of drained and disinterested after 3 hour 3 turn battles. ))
Ciara: (( the one where you apologized to Valdis?? ))
Ciara: (( I MEAN I THINK A LOT MADE THAT NOT TRUE ))
Eliza: (( lol ))
Ciara: (( They weren't saying you were lying to Skull Knight ))
Warlord: (( the second paragraph ))
Warlord: (( not the fucking first paragraph ))
Ciara: (( they just kinda mad you're calling em out ))
Ciara: (( when like, that was so obvious ))

Skull Knight:
the "he owes me so much" wasn't about Ivan lol

Valdis:
justice is blind

Valdis:
also stupid

Eliza:
we can extort money out of her

Valdis:
"Well! I musht shtay and repair the landshcape...it sheemsh to have been damaged shomewhat."

Eliza:
maybe her god is abusing her lack of antiscam

Shaman:
i didn't do it

Ciara:
"Oww..O-oh...Um, hello...T-thank you..."

Eliza:
"Man, you guys sure took a beating. Goodness."

Skull Knight:
"Don't mention it. Any of it. To anyone. As far as anyone knows this never happened. You're alive, and that's what matters...if not unhurt..."

Nick:
"Yeah, er, sorry about that... it was really a matter of life and death there for a bit. Sorry... thanks for the help."

Nick:
"We should probably get going before things get heated again. All of us."

Eliza:
"To be perfectly honest her, I still have no idea what the fuck is going on."

Eliza:
here*

Skull Knight:
"Mm. I'm done with the heating for now, I think."

Ivan:
"Yeah I'll agree with you on that much. I'd really prefer to just forget this happened." He lets out a grunt of pain from what those damn vines did to him. He just throws his arms up as he replies to Eliza. "There's not too much to understand! What we need to understand was this was a huge waste of time."

Skull Knight:
"But, yes...We should leave. I doubt I can ask for another favor like that one..."

Valdis:
Valdis gets to work chanting about trees n shit

Valdis:
She has, thankfully, not remembered you called her a stupid hippie bitch

Nick:
Nick shakes his head and presses a super potion into Ivan's hand.

Nick:
"Here." Bandage and a Mending Gel to Nick here

Eliza:
Eliza returns to Neal's side and tells him that the job of revivial has been finished, "Alright, as instructed your princess has been released by the Reaper."
Warlord: (( From the perspective of goody two shoes Nick it seemed to make perfect sense to side with skull to me. ))
Warlord: (( I assumed that would happen but no ))

Nick:
*neal

Eliza:
Eliza stops Nick, "Hold on. I've got him."

Ciara:
"Uh..yeah...I guess we should, huh..."

Nick:
"Oh, yeah? Never mind then." He gives it to Harriet instead.

Nick:
"Think we made things worse for you guys by showing up..."

Skull Knight:
The Skull Knight presses something in Ciara's hands, whispers something to her, then leaves, a little unsteady but mostly fine.

Harriet:
"Uh...maybe..."

Harriet:
"But I don't know. Can't say how hard it would have fought if you hadn't shown up."

Harriet:
"Or whether Ciara would have thrown another ball at it!"

Ivan:
He is about ready to thank Nick before the potion was taken from his hand. He is pretty annoyed in-character that they couldn't side with the same people properly.

Ciara:
"...figuredc it would work..."

Nick:
I just sided with the person we already decided we were siding with last session idk

Ivan:
8 intuition or whatever to try to hear anything remotely relevant being said by the two people.

Harriet:
"Huh? Oh, uh, thanks...never got your name..."

Harriet:
"Wait, Ciara, is THIS your brother?"

Harriet:
"I can see the resemblance..."

Eliza:
idiot

Nick:
If u remember Gark, betraying people does not work out for me

Nick:
"...How?"

Eliza:
"As per our agreement, I shall replenish my supply for what I've applied to your partners."

Harriet:
"I don't know, wavy blonde hair."

Nick:
that's

Nick:
red

Harriet:
"Similar fashion sense."

Eliza:
(in this case it'd be one revive)

Nick:
that's red hair

Nick:
Oh wait

Harriet:
h

Harriet:
how

Nick:
you mean me

Harriet:
how do you see that hair as blonde

Harriet:
er

Nick:
maybe?

Harriet:
red

Harriet:
Ciara

Nick:
SKULL KNIGHT?

Harriet:
NO??

Eliza:
Eliza waves over Ivan, "Man, she sure got pissed at you."

Harriet:
she thanked you for giving her a potion

Harriet:
then asked Ciara if you were her brother

Nick:
I didn't give her a potion

Harriet:
also skull night has brown hair

Harriet:
oh

Nick:
I gave her a bandage and a mending gel

Nick:
they have many an injuries

Harriet:
Nick: "Oh, yeah? Never mind then." He gives it to Harriet instead.

Harriet:
what

Ivan:
"I noticed. Eeeeeverybody in here had their own little ideas...You were right to just stay out of it all."

Nick:
Yeah

Harriet:
ah okay

Harriet:
you gave her -things-

Polpo:
Chesnaught's face is very comfortable

Harriet:
Skullomania is gone now neway

Nick:
I told u get OFFA there

Nick:
"Nixon. Call me Nick."

Harriet:
"So then...was the skull dude your brother? It'd make sense...showed up after you sent him a signal."

Eliza:
Eliza twirls her cane, and jabs it into the side of Ivan's shins, (First Aid Expertise), she leans in close, "You could probably convince her to let you take the guardian with you, given your splendid convincing to let you off the hook."

Nick:
fukkn maybe yeh.

Ciara:
"What?! NO! Definitely not! 100% percent not my brother! My brother has..uh...darker hair... and besides, if that were Lucy, he'd STILL be lecturing me."

Eliza:
"Grass types are my jam but uh, I'm in no way associating myself with religious bullshit."

Ciara:
"No way he'd have left with a "as long as you're fine!"

Eliza:
Again, in whispering form to Ivan

Eliza:
Clara - and my brother is hot as fuk

Eliza:
unlike this fake

Eliza:
>Lucy

Nick:
"I think the Guardian already did enough 'lecturing' to ya."

Eliza:
fucking lucernia get out

Nick:
well obv it was Lucernia c'mon

Ciara:
"But no, that was NOT my brother...heck, he can't evne FIGHT! So, no way."

Harriet:
"Jeez, cool it already. Just a suggestion. But if that's not it, then... Whatever. Not important right now."

Ivan:
He's a bit weirded out by Eliza's methods but has seen the kind of shit she pulls, he doesn't question it. "I...I uh. Guess I could try. What's the worst that could happen?" He said that knowing well she could decide to bring roots up out of the ground to attack him again.

Nick:
"Hey, I can battle! That matters a lot more, the way I see it!"

Valdis:
I am a tree hugger and we are in a forest there are MANY worsts that could happen

Eliza:
Eliza shrugs, "Merely a suggestion, I've got some information to take from my patients so I'll be over there if you need me."

Ciara:
"See, THAT'S more like my brother."

Nick:
"Really though, you holding up alright?"
Ivan: (( how much healings? ))

Eliza:
all of it

Eliza:
-3 injuries

Ivan:
Ivan is healed and gains 45 hit points.

Nick:
damn nice

Ciara:
"Just, more 'Pride this, diligence that, blah blah blah'."
Ciara: (( I think FAE only heals one injury doesn't it ))

Eliza:
oh

Eliza:
im an idiot

Eliza:
yeah it's one

Ivan:
The injury lowered the Special Defense stat!

Ivan:
The injury lowered the Special Defense stat!

Eliza:
baited
Ivan: (( those are blatantly worse ))

Ivan:
The injury lowered the Accuracy stat!

Ivan:
The injury lowered the Defense stat!

Ivan:
The injury lowered the Defense stat!

Ivan:
The injury lowered the Special Attack stat!
Ivan: (( whatever I'll take it ))

Ciara:
"I'm...I'm okay. I-I think... I don't want to try moving..."

Harriet:
"Well, you're too heavy for me to lift."

Eliza:
Eliza rejoins the group, "So, I guess while we're here, why not go through some introductions, and exchange plesantries."

Harriet:
"..and I'm not in the best shape, myself."

Eliza:
"Where are you guys headed?"

Nick:
"Eliza's goat can probably carry you."

Neal:
"What's pleasant about this situation?"

Ivan:
"So, uh, Valdis...Sorry about all that. I really thought that no good fire skull guy was gonna kill us. Considering what happened, do you, uh, really think it's safe here for the guardian to remain here? More trainers could come by to capture it and this could all happen again!"

Neal:
"I think I've broken more bones than I knew I had..."

Neal:
"And as a doctor, that's concerning."

Eliza:
"Why, we could probably offer you a few more options than your current situation asks for. We can probably assist you to your next destination if we're going the same way."

Nick:
Nick nods. "We're on our way to Connough."

Valdis:
She stops chanting into her tree and twirls around to face you, "Oh! Yesh, you are shertainly correct! I shall have to ashk Virizion to shtrengthen itsh wardsh againsht shuch ill-minded Trainersh!"

Eliza:
alright its debate time Ivan

Ciara:
"Oh, well...that sucks...we're actually going to---"

Eliza:
u got this

Harriet:
"We're going to wherever the hell they'll take us. How would we even MAKE it to Callantown on our own?"

Eliza:
"Callantown? That's... quite the ways away from here."

Ciara:
"Who died and made you leader?"

Harriet:
"Uh, you, basically."

Nick:
"She's got a point."

Harriet:
5 injures

Harriet:
can't even run without bleeding out my eyes

Harriet:
still the least dead of our team

Nick:
"Besides, you can just take the train back, can't you?"

Nick:
"Once we get to the Valley?"

Ivan:
"Well...It's only a matter of time until they get in! Perhaps one of your servants such as myself could transport it to a more suitable, safe location...? I know you are very busy destroying corrupted waterfalls and such. And I could use it to stop any further harm from coming to Virizion's lands along the way!" 12

Harriet:
"From the valley, yeah. Might be closer to go directly from there, though."

Ivan:
18

Valdis:
oh

Nick:
dear god Warlord

Nick:
you are the worst

Nick:
I love it

Eliza:
atta boy

Eliza:
hey it was my idea fuck you

Nick:
yeah but like

Nick:
he went through with it

Eliza:
tru

Nick:
I'd never have gone through with it

Eliza:
i woula

Eliza:
(smirk)

Valdis:
"H-Hrm...what you shay makesh shensh, but...that ish not shomething I can deshide on my own... Virizion'sh guardiansh are plashed by Virizion, sho...she ish the one who musht deshide!"

Eliza:
now you must arm wrestle it

Nick:
fair.

Eliza:
"Well regardless of what your plans are, you guys will absoultely get destroyed if you're not properly taken care of. No less that your own doctor is under severe damage."

Ciara:
"Oh. Uh, yeah...thanks for takin' that hit, Neal..."

Ivan:
"Right, right, Virizion has the final say. But surely Virizion would have a different opinion if the good lord would've seen what happened here?"

Eliza:
"Unless my two comrades are against it, I offer a joint operation of exchange of information and some goods for your protection and recovery."

Neal:
"Oh, yeah, sure. That's what I live for, you know. Ejecting ribs out of my body at mach 3 so you don't have to face any consequences. You know me."

Harriet:
i heard joint

Harriet:
i could go for a joint rn

Eliza:
ya same

Eliza:
i got those

Nick:
she do

Valdis:
"It ish hard to shay what Lord Virizion would want! She ish delightfully mercurial! I would have to ashk her directly! Oh, should I shummon her effigy here now?"

Nick:
"I won't turn down the company."

Rampaging Pokemon:
do it

Rampaging Pokemon:
DO IT

Eliza:
no ballz

Eliza:
"It's on them to accept, I'd prefer not to leave them out here in the dangerous forest but it's not like we can afford to stay out here too long either without burning through our supplies."
Ivan: (( oh god virizion is probably intelligent enough to see through my BS in a Thrice campaign ))

Eliza:
She walks over to the big Chester and releases Passe.
Ivan: (( but sure let's summon it. So I can throw balls at it of course!!!!! ))

Nick:
ur gun die

Passefaro:
Passe uses the soil of the lands to wrap around the hunk of steel as nutrients seep into the Guardian. (Milk Drink)

Ivan:
"I am...Curious about what she has to say. This guardian deserves better than to be mixed up in such misunderstandings."

Eliza:
"What an incredibly strong Pokemon."
Ivan: (( So they don't work because of not getting reception, but we do have phones? ))

Eliza:
Eliza also Frisks the Guardian. (lewd)
Nick: (( yeah, they're very short range ))
Nick: (( just in the near-immediate radius around cities ))
Rampaging Pokemon: (( it's also texts ))
Rampaging Pokemon: (( not speech ))
Ivan: (( I want to record the legendary pokmin. She probably doesn't even know what a camera is ))
Ivan: (( OW. ))
Nick: (( fair, assuming they're camera phones ))
Rampaging Pokemon: (( they're not, but your Pokedex exists ))
Ivan: (( well does it actually record anything other than that I saw the thing? ))

Rampaging Pokemon:
Rampaging Pokemon is healed and gains 54 hit points.
Rampaging Pokemon: (( It records all the info the dex in the games/anime does ))

Nick:
but not video

Nick:
I think is what he's going for
Rampaging Pokemon: (( No it does not record video ))
Ivan: (( not even still images? ))
Rampaging Pokemon: (( It can record the image yeah, like in the games ))

Rampaging Pokemon:
It's a chesnaught, level 35, Steel/Fighting Type, with Bulletproof and Discipline as its Abilities

Eliza:
what the ballz

Eliza:
not even grass type

Eliza:
garbage
Ivan: (( boosted to boss level by Virizion/Valdis I guess ))
Ivan: (( anyway I am looking to scan the Virizion she may call in ))
Nick: (( I'm out of energy for the night, go ahead and scan it ))

Eliza:
dont you want to him ivan die?
Ivan: (( I've been out of energy for this an hour ago ))

Valdis:
Valdis nods, "Okay, then! I shall call her effigy! She shall shpeak through it!"

Ivan:
Ivan was partially relieved that Virizion wasn't going to personally arrive.

Ivan:
but wasn't sure if this meant he couldn't scan her in the pokedex.

Valdis:
After a very long series of chants and magic circles, Valdis completes some sort of ritual, causing the greenery in the area to rise from the ground and form a dense, cohesive form between her and Ivan

Eliza:
Eliza headpats the Chesnaught until it wakes up, assuring that everything is daijoubu
Ivan: (( presumably waiting for what the lesser god says ))

Eliza:
ring ring ring ring ring banana phone

Virizion:
A sigil appears over the mass of greenery, and descends into it, transmorphing it into a visage of the Legendary herself. It emanates an immensely powerful minty fresh scent, and the air around it is so clean and crisp it's as if you're in the highest of mountains - including the altitude sickness. It laughs as it forms, and questions you, "I'll humour you this, I will! To call on a goddess, you must wish for money or power?"

Eliza:
o fuk its dat legendary

Virizion:
grass, girl

Virizion:
grass

Virizion:
much like ur ass after i'm done

Eliza:
pass that joint

Rampaging Pokemon:
The Chesnaught is almost ready to clock Ciara again, but then realizes it's in the presence of its master

Rampaging Pokemon:
And quickly cuts that shit out

Nick:
dam

Nick:
He actually done went and did it

Eliza:
madman.gif

Valdis:
"Oh, Mashter! I'm sho glad you've grashed ush with your shight!"

Harriet:
with her shite

Harriet:
might wanna watch yourself there girl

Ivan:
Ivan of course tries to Pokedex scan it as it forms. He expected it to be smarter than the apparently easily fooled Valdis, but not to just instantly know his intentions, catching him rather off guard. "Just thought you should hear about what happened to your appointed guardian here today. I wasn't the first person who tried to catch it and I probably won't be the last. The presence of this Pokemon may actually be attracting more people to defile this area rather than less."

Virizion:
The Pokedex identifies this as Virizion from the form alone, but can't grab any info from scanning it

Virizion:
"Aahahahha! You admit such grievous transgressions so readily. But you are not wrong. This land belongs to me now... It was my own overconfidence that brought me to appoint such a weak and pitiful guard."

Eliza:
Eliza continues to pat the shitty Guardian, its okay buddy

Nick:
d a m n

Rampaging Pokemon:
crie errytim

Rampaging Pokemon:
The Chesnaught may not appreciate being treated like a helpless pupper

Rampaging Pokemon:
at the least it is a pupper that could give u somethin to RLY limp about

Eliza:
no ballz

Passefaro:
Passe continues to give the big fist fellow a mud massage

Virizion:
"I must either strengthen this one, or place more and more powerful wards. I did not expect humans to break its aura so readily. That ought to have prevented your technical cheats from working."

Ivan:
He was rather unnerved by the whole 'admitting' things bit. "When I came in it was already fighting some people who attempted to catch it. Catching it seemed like the only answer to save them at that point. It was probably only so strong because of all of the...Power, that you so generously gave to it. I think you need a guardian that can stand on its own merits." 11 guile again for the part about saving people lol
16

Nick:
and then Ivan was turned into that guardian

Nick:
and lived the rest of his life as a Tsareena

Passefaro:
rip

Virizion:
"Ahah...I'm sure that was your only incentive. Whatever your intentions, unfortunately, there is no Pokemon alive that would not benefit immensely from my blessing. Why, if there were, would not they stand here above me?"

Ivan:
"You are not wrong, Virizion. I merely thought that you should know about the situation here, at least. Yes, I will admit, my pursuits are not entirely...Noble. I could certainly make great use of that mighty Pokemon. If it was so weak, can you not find another, more capable guardian Pokemon?"

Ivan:
He just cut to the chase, unable to really BS any more reasons.

Nick:
oh shit, so that's the angle lol

Penny:
Penny's SpDefense rose!
Ivan: (( exp was given? ))

Dwight:
discord

Dwight:
Dwight's SpDefense rose!

Virizion:
"Oh I could, and I will. But what sort of lordly lady gifts such a gleefully ignoble man with a prize as precious as this? Why...if I were to relinquish my control of this guardian to anyone, why not my loyal servant Valdis, she with a tenure of nearly a decade?"

Irwin:
good call

Passefaro:
i gave it a massage

Irwin:
Irwin's Defense rose!

Benzene:
i get xp fuck ya

Rampaging Pokemon:
you did

Rampaging Pokemon:
you also sprayed milk all over my ass

Irwin:
l-LEWD

Benzene:
Benzene gained 27 experience! (202) Level up! Gained 1 levels. Level 14

Shaman:
Shaman gained 28 experience! (348) Level 18

Neal:
can I give my exp to my ribs pls

Fifi:
no

Neal:
dam

Passefaro:
Passefaro gained 28 experience! (306) Level up! Gained 1 levels. Level 17

Mari:
Mari gained 27 experience! (194) Level up! Gained 1 levels. Level 14

Ivan:
"Well...If Valdis wants it, then I am in no position to object. But she has expressed no such desire. I did assist her in removing the spirit of Suicune from a nearby waterfall. This exchange here was a large misunderstanding from 4 or 5 parties."

Nick:
"Dunno how much of it was a misunderstanding. That skull-faced guy seemed to actually have it out for her..."

Nick:
"One hell of a rivalry going on, I guess..."

Virizion:
"Skull faced? We cannot be so disparaging of others' appearances."

Valdis:
"I-it wash a mashk, Lady Virizion..."

Eliza:
Eliza has shifted over to patting her goat over the hunk of steel, "I wish I had blessings I could give you... Good job mending up like usual." Patpat

Virizion:
"Oh. Then there is nothing for it." Virizion looks over Ivan, her eyes glowing with green smoke, "It may be true you rid me of that nuisance, but I do not believe it was out of devotion, but of greed."

Nick:
"Whaaat, him? Nooo."

Ivan:
6 Mean Look Nick

Nick:
O

Nick:
I

Nick:
I'm glad I stayed up for that alone

Nick:
also it is dark

Ivan:
Ivan was ready to give up when she could just sense this from him so casually. "Then what do you intend to do with the previous guardian?"

Virizion:
"That old thing? I'll hand it over to Valdis, perhaps... or send it to my brothers for training."

Ivan:
"Then it's settled." He had no further disappointment having accepted it already. "Hopefully you're able to prevent this from happening again for all our sakes."
Ivan: (( did pokedex acknowledge the talking head ))

Virizion:
"If you can provide true evidence of your devotion, then perhaps you have a chance. If not...I suggest you make a more concerted effort next time."

Virizion:
It recognizes that it's Virizion, but can't get any data off it other than that

Virizion:
It can record the image of this thing, but it's covered in aura and thus kinda fuzzy

Ivan:
"I wasn't sure who to believe between your disciple and that disciple of Entei at the time. I don't deserve any reward from you. I'll know who to side with in the future."

Skull Knight:
pick me

Skull Knight:
ive got like

Skull Knight:
fire and shit

Skull Knight:
way better than flowers

Eliza:
but my weed
Warlord:
I have no choice but to asskiss until it leaves. And decision was blatantly made for me by Nick lol

Nick:
I mean side with who you want

Nick:
That was just the most likely way I saw of getting out of that situation without betraying anyone/getting anyone killed

Nick:
Also Thrice if you're still awake I honestly think Warlord earned a bonus XP

Virizion:
Yeah that's fair

Virizion:
Bonus XP for being the worst liar of all time

Virizion:
and yet somehow also the best
Warlord:
