  21. Katherine:
  22. Right, did we still want to use Skype for this session?
  23. Teagan: (( You guys do what you want, I'm sticking out of it for the first hour or so at least ))
  24.  
  25. Katherine:
  26. Think I'll do the same for now too

  40. Rivi:
  41. T-that 7
  42. Teagan: (( Alright, so on this end we'd just... what, gotten ferried over to the other side by the beefy dudes and ran into Elriz, I think ))
  43. Thrice:
  44. So last time, Innsma elbow dropped Sal from the top ropes, and then you finally managed to boat over the broken bridge(or half of you did), and saw a somewhat familiar face
  45. Teagan: (( Don't recall if he said anything ))
  46. Rivi: (( I'm not an X am I? ))
  47.  
  48. Rivi:
  49. Test

  51. Katherine:
  52. Yeah, I see ya
  53. Thrice:
  54. You're an XX
  55.  
  56. Rivi:
  57. XX
  58. Thrice:
  59. like all the other PCs
  60.  
  61. Rivi:
  62. Shoooowtime!
  63.  
  64. Innsma:
  65. we saw a familiar face? :^P
  66.  
  67. Elriz:
  68. me
  69.  
  70. Innsma:
  71. *:^O
  72.  
  73. Elriz:
  74. You notice a familiar face standing in front of what looks to be a small lab - a big, white building with hardly any windows. It looks like he's trying to dry out his labcoat. Beside him is a large, quadrupedal Pokemon.
  75.  
  76. Elriz:
  77. then a bunch of Rivi stuff
  78.  
  79. Elriz:
  80. "Finally, off of that godforsaken Route. And soon into the dry, cozy lab."
  81.  
  82. Elriz:
  83. then that
  84.  
  85. Elriz:
  86. I think you were asleep at this time.
  87.  
  88. Teagan:
  89. Elriz: "Covered in goop...Gh. I'm a researcher. Got stuck on Route 4. What else do you wanna know?"
  90.  
  91. Elriz:
  92. Because Agi didn't say anything for hours
  93.  
  94. Teagan:
  95. In response to Sal wondering who the bugger he was
  96.  
  97. Elriz:
  98. and neitherdid you
  99.  
  100. Elriz:
  101. "Who is this man...? And why is he covered in goop?"
  102.  
  103. Elriz:
  104. And yeah, Sal said that
  105.  
  106. Teagan:
  107. You are that man
  108.  
  109. Sal:
  110. "Who is this man...? And why is he covered in goop?"
  111.  
  112. Sal:
  113. fine
  114.  
  115. Sal:
  116. you nigruss
  117. Teagan: (( why you're covered in goop is your own business ))
  118.  
  119. Innsma:
  120. right
  121.  
  122. Innsma:
  123. i was dead for most of that
  124. Teagan: (( how dead are you today ))
  125. Teagan: (( it'd be nice if that amount was comparatively lower ))
  126.  
  127. Innsma:
  128. I'll try not to be dead head fred then
  129. Teagan: (( yaay ))
  130. Rivi: (( \o/ ))
  131. Thrice:
  132. I believe Katherine and Rivi were just getting into a boat
  133.  
  134. Katherine:
  135. "Right, if both bridges are out, no choice, but to get a ride across, I suppose."
  136.  
  137. Teagan:
  138. "Elriz, right? Good to see you made it back!"
  139. Katherine: (( *rechecks log* ))
  140.  
  141. Innsma:
  142. "D-don't care unless the goop is edible. Actually, th-that'd be even worse, so scratch that...."
  143.  
  144. Elriz:
  145. "Oh, we made it back, all right, thanks to the Commander. Just now. I don't know if I'll ever get this mud out..."
  146.  
  147. Teagan:
  148. "And you're... huh." He's drying his coat out in the rain, for some reason. Different strokes I guess.
  149.  
  150. Rivi:
  151. "How long does this bridge anyway?"
  152.  
  153. Rivi:
  154. .... is*
  155. Teagan: (( denoutta ))
  156. Rivi: (( I've been experiencing some BSOD issues lately so if I die out, that's probably why ))
  157. Rivi: (( I think I've got it fixed though ))
  158. Brune: (( He's not drying it, he's just sort of standing outside ))
  159. Brune: (( the rain does help to wash some of the mud out I guess ))
  160. Brune: (( but there's not a lot of rain ))
  161. Teagan: (( You totally said he was trying to dry it out in the description ))
  162. Teagan: (( or at least that it LOOKED that way, which c'mon man ))
  163. Brune: (( Oh, shit. I meant he was trying to get mud off ))
  164. Teagan: (( That'd make more sense, thanks ))
  165. Teagan: (( http://www.rainymood.com ))
  166. Teagan: (( just gonna listen to that anyway ))
  167.  
  168. Brune:
  169. "How long's it? Uh, huh... Bout two thousand feet, wouldn't ya say, Klim? Too long, if ya ask me! Always work to find, on the othah hand."
  170.  
  171. Teagan:
  172. "How long were you out there? That mud looks caked right in!"
  173.  
  174. Elriz:
  175. "We just got back. And it only took us a thirty minutes' trip. You do the math."
  176.  
  177. Rivi:
  178. "That doesn't seem to be too bad!" Riv turns to the photographer. "After you!"
  179.  
  180. Katherine:
  181. Katherine smiles. "Thank you Rivi. Come on, Leanne!"
  182.  
  183. Leanne :
  184. *Jumps happily into Kathy's arms*
  185. Rivi: (( 1 Hmm... ))
  186.  
  187. Leanne :
  188. >Weight: 62 pounds
  189.  
  190. Leanne :
  191. THAT'S AS MUCH AS INNSMA
  192.  
  193. Leanne :
  194. ROLL FOR ROPE
  195.  
  196. Katherine:
  197. (d) Alright fine
  198.  
  199. Teagan:
  200. Teagan's face falls flat. "You were out there before we ran into you, I'm sure..."
  201.  
  202. Katherine:
  203. "Looks like you'll have to return for now, Leanne." She returns her Azumarill.
  204.  
  205. Rivi:
  206. Rivi crosses her leg off the dock before freezing. "Hmmm..." The acrobat rubs her chin. "I think I forgot something at the Center."
  207.  
  208. Elriz:
  209. "Since the day before. And Marm still isn't back. No telling what's happened to the kid by now, but we can't spare any resources to go get him."
  210.  
  211. Katherine:
  212. "Eh? What exactly?"
  213.  
  214. Elriz:
  215. "Took the commander hours to be able to come get us in the first place."
  216.  
  217. Teagan:
  218. "Anyway - you picked up that other partner of yours on the way, righ- oh, I... I guess not..."
  219.  
  220. Innsma:
  221. "You uh, know this....actually, of course you d-do. Blegh." Innsma just moves on ahead, forcibly putting Snow back into his sheathe.
  222.  
  223. Snow:
  224. Nuuoooo
  225.  
  226. Rivi:
  227. "Heheh, I was going to ask Jack if he had something before I left, but it totally slipped my mind." Riv glances off to the side.
  228.  
  229. Innsma:
  230. "*Blegh* I do hope there's somewhere to get safely dried in there. Or else this is gonna get reeeaaal murky." assuming the place behind Mr. Suit is the cafeterium
  231.  
  232. Katherine:
  233. "Well alright then. Did you want me to come with you?...Actually, there is one thing I should ask Jack anyway." Katherine remembers her Golden Ball she has.
  234.  
  235. Sal:
  236. "I will leave you to your...ah, liquidized sediment, then." Sal follows after Innsma
  237.  
  238. Rivi:
  239. "I-I mean I won't be too quick!" She holds out her arms in preperation that Kathy might tip herself off the boat. "I could ask while I'm there!"
  240.  
  241. Elriz:
  242. El just stands by as they walk in, then turns to the rest of the crowd, "What business do they got in the lab?"
  243.  
  244. Elriz:
  245. and indeed
  246.  
  247. Innsma:
  248. I do wonder if that map up there is supposed to the the place, or if we just go inside this building, but either way you cut in, Innsma would much rather be indoors right now. "C-come on..."
  249. Thrice:
  250. Inside the supposedly dry, cozy lab sits another familiar face, as well as somebody you don't recognize...Or do you? Feels like you've seen those clothes before... While Jen's hair-drying her notes, the blue-haired man stares at a computer, sometimes glancing down at some papers with a stressed look on his face.
  251. Thrice:
  252. And it's the one up there
  253.  
  254. Teagan:
  255. "I-innsma, I don't think that's the cafeteria!"
  256.  
  257. Katherine:
  258. "*Sigh* Well alright. Here's this Golden Ball I found in the routes from before. If you could ask if it's anything of value, that'd be greatly appreciated."
  259.  
  260. Innsma:
  261. "What a lousy cafeteria...I d-don't even see any food in here!"
  262. Thrice:
  263. and now laundry
  264.  
  265. Katherine:
  266. "Please don't take too long! Don't keep the others waiting."
  267.  
  268. Innsma:
  269. Do I know this person, hmm hmm, I feel like I should
  270.  
  271. Rivi:
  272. "Whoa!" She catches the ball and examines it carefully. "You got it! Time me if you want!" Before a confirmation she bolts off across the docks and toward the Center.
  273. Teagan: (( Which person? ))
  274. Teagan: (( Jen was the other researcher, with Elriz ))
  275.  
  276. Rivi:
  277. Phew, that was close. Rivi exhales as she walks through the doors. "What a totally cool ball though!"
  278.  
  279. Teagan:
  280. "They don't have any, sir, that I know of at least - Innsma, Sal, get back here!" She shouts with her hands cupped to her mouth.
  281. Rivi: (( Katherine: (waiting) ))
  282.  
  283. Katherine:
  284. (WAITING)
  285. Rivi: (( lol Sorry Twilt ))
  286.  
  287. Innsma:
  288. The researcher from what now 9~9
  289. Teagan: (( From the Tympole ))
  290. Teagan: (( Immediately prior to Rapeolu ))
  291.  
  292. Katherine:
  293. Also, think I might start a call either at 9:30 or 10 if anyone's up for it
  294.  
  295. Katherine:
  296. IE. in an hour from now for agi
  297. Teagan: (( nigga I've been doing the math for years ))
  298. Rivi: (( I'll see what I'm up for when the time comes ))
  299. Thrice:
  300. okay I'll put those up and wash my actual clothes later
  301.  
  302. Innsma:
  303. Innsma looks suspciously at the researchers, but doesn't feel like interrupting whatever important business they're surely doing. "N-nevermind then..." She heads back out, face still reddened from some slight hypothermia.
  304. Rivi: (( Welcome back ))
  305.  
  306. Innsma:
  307. "Th-there was no good food it seems..."
  308.  
  309. Elriz:
  310. Elriz tosses his head over his shoulder to glance back at Innsma, "Back so soon? What'd you go in there for, then?"
  311.  
  312. Rivi:
  313. Riv steps up the stairs to find Jack. "Hmm..."
  314.  
  315. Innsma:
  316. Innsy scratches the side of her cheek. "J-just lookin' for the cafeteria, have no idea where it is...why, anything of interest in there I sh-should know about?"
  317. Rivi: (( Innsma you're adorable. ))
  318.  
  319. Elriz:
  320. "That's the Commander's laboratory. And mine, for now. You're free to go in if you want, but it's no cafeteria...not that you'd know the difference during the busy hours. The real place is down at the end of the docks."
  321.  
  322. Jondo:
  323. "Then why're we standing around here? I'm going to eat before that guy grabs it all."
  324.  
  325. Innsma:
  326. "Hnn?" She takes a glance at what's supposedly the real cafeteria. "O-oh...thanks. N-now come on...." Innsma has no idea what to use a laboratory for, but she's sure it might come in handly later, like that one book on structured computer organization she still hasn't thrown out yet despite keeping it unopened for about a decade.
  327.  
  328. Rivi:
  329. (waiting)
  330. Innsma: (( may or may not be self-venting there ))
  331.  
  332. Jondo:
  333. Jondo, true to his word, took off after his line and is headed toward the buildings at the far end of the dock
  334.  
  335. Carnaj:
  336. otters apparently are excellent Michael Jackson impersonators
  337.  
  338. Innsma:
  339. "Guuh, I can't believe I'm actually feeling hungry lately. What a rare feeling."
  340.  
  341. Sal:
  342. Sal furrows her brow and mutters to herself as she trods after Innsma, "Rare? Isn't that usual..."
  343.  
  344. Sal:
  345. So did Agi go to wrestle a bear or something
  346.  
  347. Sal:
  348. Have you actually said anything to Jack @ Rivi
  349.  
  350. Rivi:
  351. Well I was waiting for confirmation >_>
  352.  
  353. Jack:
  354. He uh, exists
  355.  
  356. Rivi:
  357. Well alright then
  358.  
  359. Jack:
  360. He's building up his house of cards again
  361. Teagan: (( why would he have ))
  362. Thrice:
  363. Up ahead, there are two buildings; one's not labeled at all, but the other says FOOD COURT(that'd be the one Lucernia's heading toward"
  364. Thrice:
  365. )
  366.  
  367. Innsma:
  368. Innsma takes a deep breath while casually limping along, clutching her hands together. "Y-you must forgive me, before recently I've been mostly living on a s-steady supply of rice cakes, pudding, and gummy-flavored supplements. And p-perhaps the regrets of the dead..."
  369.  
  370. Rivi:
  371. Riv slides herself across the table and into view of Jack from the other side of the cards. "Hey Jack!"
  372.  
  373. Teagan:
  374. Teagan... starts to go along, but stops herself after taking a few short steps - "So - are you telling me you don't know where he is?"
  375.  
  376. Brune:
  377. This guy starts his work back up while Rivi's gone, with his Poliwhirl acting as an on-water table for tools
  378.  
  379. Elriz:
  380. "Marm? I have no idea. I'd wager he's tried to make his way back this way, but who knows?"
  381.  
  382. Innsma:
  383. "B-but things are changing now! T-today I continue my n-new protein and iron diet of uh....I'm not too knowledgeable about food."
  384.  
  385. Jack:
  386. Jack almost jumps, but manages to seize his muscles up at the last second, preventing his house of cards from collapsing, with a heavy sigh, "Haaaah...yes, darling customer? How can I help you?
  387.  
  388. Jack:
  389. "
  390.  
  391. Teagan:
  392. "Make his way back, I thought you were all under orders to stay out there until you were TOLD to come back! Don't tell me his communications are on the fritz, too!"
  393.  
  394. Sal:
  395. "I did not know that... Hm. Meats, of course, are typically high in protein and iron."
  396.  
  397. Elriz:
  398. "If I was under orders to stay out in a monsoon for days, I'd say screw it too. I'm just telling you what I think he's done."
  399.  
  400. Elriz:
  401. "One day out there was torture enough."
  402.  
  403. Rivi:
  404. Rivi's lips shift a bit. "Sorry for the surprise, but I was meaning to ask if you have some beginner guides to Pokemon? I-I'm trying to smarten up..." Her head turns off to the side embarassed.
  405.  
  406. Sal:
  407. Sal lightly smiles, "I could cook for you some time or another. I lack ingredients now, unfortunately."
  408.  
  409. Teagan:
  410. "But the comms, has anyone tried reaching him?" The desperation begins to build in Teagan's voice.
  411.  
  412. Innsma:
  413. "A-and you cook? Heeeh....th-then you should probably pick out something for me. I'm not very g-good at this, as you can perhaps tell..."
  414.  
  415. Elriz:
  416. "I told you, I don't know his number. Even the Commander doesn't. And if Alizar actually bothered to remember it, I'll eat my shoe."
  417.  
  418. Jack:
  419. "What kind of beginner guides? I've got some stuff on breeding here, for instance. Training guides...even grooming. What are you looking for?"
  420.  
  421. Teagan:
  422. "I'd assumed there'd be some paperwork on it." Teagan looks around - is Sanya still here, or did you just forget to move her?
  423.  
  424. Innsma:
  425. "M-maybe you should teach me sometime...most I know how to do is operate a microwave. Which'll be quite the feat to make use of out here..."
  426.  
  427. Sal:
  428. "Hmm...for protein, something in a yogurt and cheese sauce would do well. Along with some broiled Clauncher..." She trails off, her face going slack, and nearly walks smack-dab into a tall plant, "Ah...Hm. I apologize..."
  429.  
  430. Rivi:
  431. Riv brings her hand up to her chin, in attempt to figure out what she'd call her lack of knowldge. "Ah heck! I just don't know! I'll purchase buy one training guide please!" Checking her watch knowing that Katherine is going to drill her so hard for being slow.
  432.  
  433. Sanya:
  434. Sorry - Sanya followed after Jondo, Innsma, and Sal (waiting)
  435.  
  436. Rivi:
  437. > purchase buy
  438. Teagan: (( aw, damn ))
  439. Teagan: (( Might've been cool to ask her to come along ))
  440.  
  441. Clint:
  442. You bet your ass I'd drill peck you if I could
  443. Jack: (( well, she is the closest one ))
  444.  
  445. Clint:
  446. but alas, the best I have is Wing Attack atm
  447. Rivi: (( Shit dood I'm sorry for having you wait Twilt ))
  448. Jack: (( She's just sort of shambling along ))
  449. Katherine: (( it's fine, just please hurry up lol ))
  450.  
  451. Jack:
  452. "Sure thing. That'll be 850, if you want it. You're lucky, not many tellers carry these things."
  453. Teagan: (( and it's... 9ish in summer, so I think the sun just set (hmm) ))
  454. Teagan: (( potentially still time to rendezvous with the kid ))
  455.  
  456. Jack:
  457. "But, seeing all the booky people around here, I figured they'd pay off. They'll read anything."
  458.  
  459. Innsma:
  460. "Heh he....it's nothing. I'm t-taking notes in my head...and hopefully won't forget them the next second."
  461.  
  462. Teagan:
  463. "Okay - where was he set up, exactly?" Teagan grabs a potion. Or two, she's at 1 HP. "There should be just enough time to reach him, at the very least!"
  464.  
  465. Teagan:
  466. Teagan is healed and gains 20 hit points.
  467.  
  468. Rivi:
  469. A developing frown grows on Riv's face as she check her funding. "U-uhh..." Her hands tremble a bit as she is reminded that she was going to ask about the ball. "I-I'm guessing this isn't up your alley..." The ball is raised. \o/
  470.  
  471. Elriz:
  472. El stares at you, lowering his head a tad, and turning his eyes up, "You're gonna go alone?"
  473.  
  474. Innsma:
  475. Now are we at the cafeteria yet? :^O And if we are, what is in there :^O
  476.  
  477. Teagan:
  478. "No, going alone is just as much a recipe for disaster as staying out there alone. I'll grab someone else to come along."
  479. Thrice:
  480. Sure, you are. It's more of, well, a food court than a cafeteria - more like something you'd see at a college, rather than a high school. There are a few fast food places, a small cafe-ish area, and a sit-in Chinese place. Lucernia's sitting at the cafe's seats as it is, but there's plenty of room still. Other than that, it's pretty barren. Seems most people get their food to go here.
  481. Thrice:
  482. We'll say, I dunno, that's the cafe area
  483. Thrice:
  484. And the little cordoned-off area is the chinese place
  485.  
  486. Elriz:
  487. "Haaah....Do you have anyone in mind? Or are you jsut rambling on about plans?"
  488.  
  489. Innsma:
  490. "Oooh...f-fancier than what I was expecting...Ah...I d-don't even know where to start..."
  491. Elriz: (( What ball are we talknig here ))
  492. Rivi: (( Twilt said Golden Ball thing ))
  493.  
  494. Katherine:
  495. Golden Ball I found at Murkrow's nest waaayy back
  496. Jack: (( Huh, I coulda sworn you sold that to Eddler ))
  497. Jack: (( or at least asked him about it ))
  498.  
  499. Katherine:
  500. Just quickly control F'd the logs
  501.  
  502. Katherine:
  503. I apparently did not (waiting)
  504. Rivi: (( Wasn't that a nugget ))
  505. Jack: (( Yeah ))
  506. Jack: (( That's what the golden ball was. ))
  507. Rivi: (( I'm sure you sold that ))
  508. Rivi: (( Teagan was there with you too ))
  509. Jack: (( I remember giving a price for it, but I don't actually remember if you sold it or not ))
  510. Teagan: (( he did ))
  511. Katherine: (( hmm, this is odd; can't seem to find it in the logs from searching "gold" or "nugget" ))
  512. Jack: (( Teagan: "Actually, yes... would you mind taking a look at this?" Let's show him the nugget, since the person who stole it from me is actually here ))
  513. Jack: (( Assumedly Eddler: "Wazzis? Oooh..." Double D takes it under a small magnifying glass. "Ooh, this is nice! Where'd you find this?" ))
  514. Katherine: (( Hmm assuming I sold it, pretend I didn't say anything about that then, Merge ))
  515. Katherine: (( guess I didn't quite update my inventory ))
  516. Rivi: (( Retcon ))
  517.  
  518. Innsma:
  519. "I g-guess we should sit somewhere. Dont think there's anywhere else around to eat. Let's see, uh...I always have wanted to try oriental food."
  520.  
  521. Jack:
  522. Assumedly Eddler: "Hmm...I'd say this is worth something like 2500. It's a pretty nice piece of gold."
  523.  
  524. Jack:
  525. Katherine: +2500 money
  526.  
  527. Jack:
  528. Yeah you sold it
  529. Katherine: (( aight, sorry for the confusion ))
  530. Rivi: (( Well uh, let's put that Metal Coat in her hands instead. ))
  531. Jack: (( I don't recall anyone buying a Metal Coat (HMM) ))
  532.  
  533. Teagan:
  534. "Yes, sir - two people in fact. Sanya and Rivi should be able to keep up just fine. Please, do you know where he was set up? We won't have time to bring his equipment back, but..."
  535. Jack: (( Unless I gave one out and forgot ))
  536. Katherine: (( I believe Rivi bought one ))
  537. Teagan: (( I kinda remember one? ))
  538. Jack: (( Eddler HAD one, I know ))
  539. Rivi: (( I bought one from Eddler ))
  540. Rivi: (( thing cost like 3k ))
  541. Rivi: (( But I had a Leaf Stone that I sold to remedy the costs ))
  542. Jack: (( All right, I see it now ))
  543. Jack: (( You trying to sell the Metal Coat, then? ))
  544. Rivi: (( Yeah, desperate effort to get the guide ))
  545. Katherine: (( tirk, does Innsma have a Dusk Stone? ))
  546.  
  547. Sal:
  548. "Hmm..Oriental protein, let us see...Some form of fish, that would be your most likely bet."
  549.  
  550. Researchdoer:
  551. This girl is actually running the oriental place, forgot to move her after I decided where itw as (waiting)
  552.  
  553. Elriz:
  554. "Okay, then, whoever those people are, you go get 'em." He continues scraping the mud off of him with what looks like a tripod's leg
  555.  
  556. Innsma:
  557. "F-fish, huh? I think I had some of that once, d-don't remember the exact dish for it..."
  558. Teagan: (( so he's completely ignoring me asking if he knew where Marmaduke was set up, then (waiting) ))
  559. Jack: (( I did not even see you ask (waiting) ))
  560. Teagan: (( I asked like three times ))
  561. Jack: (( He said he doesn't know where he is or was, I believe ))
  562.  
  563. Innsma:
  564. So I will take that Magikarp Sashimi or something and yes
  565.  
  566. Innsma:
  567. yes she does have dusk stone
  568.  
  569. Jack:
  570. "What's that? Those are for...Steel-types, right? Hmm...Gaol's got a few, but he doesn't need help evolving them. Ah, in any case, I'll buy it from you. I'll give you 1500 for it?"
  571. Katherine: (( kk because I have one too lol ))
  572.  
  573. Teagan:
  574. Teagan taps her foot a few times before dashing off in the direction of the cafeteria.
  575.  
  576. Elriz:
  577. "No matter how many times you ask, I don't know where he is. Or where his stuff is...he probably abandoned it. I would've."
  578.  
  579. Teagan:
  580. After Elriz says that line, of course
  581.  
  582. Teagan:
  583. "Alright, we'll figure it out!"
  584.  
  585. Rivi:
  586. "D-deal!" Completely not remembering the price that she originally bought the damn rock, she sells the hunk of Metal. "I'll be using that to buy the book as well!"
  587.  
  588. Innsma:
  589. "Oh, uh, d-do you want anything too, Sal...or are we gonna share?"
  590.  
  591. Jondo:
  592. Jondo just gets some shit from a Taco Bell ripoff and eats while leaning against a wall.
  593.  
  594. Rivi:
  595. Her watch alarm pops and a cheerful tune emits from it. "G-gosh darn it! I'm going to be so late."
  596.  
  597. Jondo:
  598. He does actually remember to get his otter a Crunchwrap
  599.  
  600. Katherine:
  601. all of my (waiting)
  602.  
  603. Innsma:
  604. and poor Sanya gets left behind again ;A;
  605.  
  606. Rivi:
  607. 650
  608.  
  609. Teagan:
  610. "Sanya!" She catches up to the sneaky ghostie after a bit of running. "Sanya, hold up!"
  611.  
  612. Sal:
  613. "Oh, of course I'll be eating. Sharing, hm...we could have a bite of each other's dishes, yes. I...believe we will each need a portion for ourselves, though."
  614.  
  615. Rivi:
  616. 1035
  617.  
  618. Jack:
  619. "Fine with me. Hope you learn something from it!"
  620.  
  621. Innsma:
  622. Innsma smiles warmly and nods. "F-fine by me!"
  623.  
  624. Rivi:
  625. She nervously laughs. "Y-yeahaha..." She procs her watch to set it back a few minutes. "Thanks again Jack! Sorry about before!"
  626.  
  627. Rivi:
  628. As she turns away from the clerk, her face becomes worried again as she bolts down the railing and across the docks as fast as she can.
  629.  
  630. Sanya:
  631. Sanya jumps, an unsettling gesture, not just because of her translucence, but because her hair bounces up, and then falls down in front of her face...and through it. She freezes, then slowly turns, "Ah...yes?"
  632.  
  633. Rivi:
  634. Like a child late for curfew, she shuffles across the docks.
  635.  
  636. Katherine:
  637. Katherine finally sees Rivi running towards her. "Oh heavens, what took you so long?"
  638.  
  639. Researchdoer:
  640. The little lady behind the counter whips up a Lumineon sweet-and-sour dish, as well as some braised flakes of Corphish, which you have to go and get because there's no one to take it to you, "I'm sorry! I actually just work here part time when I'm not in the lab... Most people take their food back."
  641.  
  642. Researchdoer:
  643. my name is long
  644.  
  645. Rivi:
  646. "H-ha!" She raises her watch to show that time wasn't up yet. "It hasn't been that long!" GUILE 14
  647.  
  648. Katherine:
  649. 13 Intuition then
  650.  
  651. Katherine:
  652. aw so close
  653. Rivi: (( YESSS ))
  654.  
  655. Teagan:
  656. Not quite as taken aback by the partial translucency, but still slightly weirded out by it, she continues - "Look, I'm sorry to bother you, a-and you can still go get food if you want, but I need your help with something!"
  657. Rivi: (( I was scared it was perception ))
  658.  
  659. Katherine:
  660. oh should I roll Perception instead
  661.  
  662. Katherine:
  663. because I can
  664. Teagan: (( You should not ))
  665. Researchdoer: (( No, it'd be Intuition for sure ))
  666.  
  667. Katherine:
  668. (sinister)
  669.  
  670. Innsma:
  671. "D-don't worry, as l-long as the food is good, my spirit shall go undisturbed. Now uh, h-how much did you say that was?"
  672.  
  673. Sanya:
  674. Still frozen to the spot, she rasps out, "What...?"
  675.  
  676. Rivi:
  677. Riv brushes the topic of lateness aside and boards the boat. "Let's get a move on!"
  678.  
  679. Katherine:
  680. "*Sigh* Alright then. what did you have to get from Jack anyway?"
  681.  
  682. Rivi:
  683. Her insides freeze at the thought of trying to fib her way out of this one. "I had to... uhm... get some more funds since I'm running a bit short." Oh man...
  684.  
  685. Katherine:
  686. ANOTHER GUILE VS PERCEPTION ROLL
  687.  
  688. Researchdoer:
  689. "H-huh? Oh! It's been a long time since I heard that. It's free! Gaol says, if these researchers had to pay for food, they'd never bother getting out of their lab for any...so he pays it all. It helps to keep challengers from getting too antsy waiting for him, too."
  690.  
  691. Rivi:
  692. LOL
  693.  
  694. Researchdoer:
  695. intuition you nignogger (D)
  696.  
  697. Rivi:
  698. Intuition ye-
  699.  
  700. Rivi:
  701. 7
  702.  
  703. Rivi:
  704. FUCK
  705.  
  706. Katherine:
  707. 14
  708.  
  709. Teagan:
  710. "That Marmaduke the researcher back there mentioned - he's still out there on the lake somewhere, and they can't reach him." More like WON'T reach him, but I digress - "He's all alone, and I need someone fast to come with me before it gets too late."
  711.  
  712. Rivi:
  713. NOOO
  714.  
  715. Katherine:
  716. Yeah you can't get away from me gurl
  717.  
  718. Teagan:
  719. ur fugd
  720.  
  721. Rivi:
  722. But the new question is
  723.  
  724. Rivi:
  725. What am I hiding?!
  726.  
  727. Katherine:
  728. "Uh-huh..." Katherine crosses her arms, clearly not buying Rivi's act. "Be honest with me; what were you really there for?"
  729.  
  730. Rivi:
  731. Riv turns to Brune and away from Katherine "Alright! Sorry for the wait, we're ready to sail!"
  732.  
  733. Innsma:
  734. "W-woah, for free? R-really? It almost feels like stealing! Thanks a bunch." Innsma eagerly takes her food. "Y'know flimsy boats aside, this place is p-pretty radical." She chirps to Sal.
  735.  
  736. Brune:
  737. "Haaah? Oh! The girlie's back." He plops his hammer on his Poliwhirl's stomach, climbs into the boat, and readies to undo the knot so they can get sailing. "Ain't forgettin' nothin?"
  738. NotJohn has connected.
  739.  
  740. Rivi:
  741. Back to Katherine. "Uh-huh!! I really did sell things." She opens up her wallet, which is filled with more cash than it was previously.
  742.  
  743. Brune:
  744. HELLO NANCY
  745. NotJohn:
  746. IORNIA HYPE
  747.  
  748. Teagan:
  749. you're nya
  750.  
  751. Rivi:
  752. Back to Brune. "Not thing time!"
  753.  
  754. Katherine:
  755. "Hm. Surely you weren't there actually buying anything, were you?"
  756.  
  757. Rivi:
  758. "N-nope!" 6
  759.  
  760. Rivi:
  761. FUCK
  762.  
  763. Katherine:
  764. She turns to Brune. "Please, let's move on."
  765.  
  766. Rivi:
  767. GODDAMIT
  768.  
  769. Katherine:
  770. 15
  771.  
  772. Katherine:
  773. Get gud
  774.  
  775. Rivi:
  776. "Y-you're not my mom! Or Miren for that matter!" She childishly turns her gaze away from the intuition machine.
  777.  
  778. Katherine:
  779. Katherine stares at Rivi, with a somewhat annoyed face, clearly seeing through her act.
  780.  
  781. Rivi:
  782. Longest boat ride ever
  783.  
  784. Katherine:
  785. "Honestly, what do you have to hide from me anyway? Are we not friends?" APPLYING THE PRESSURE.
  786.  
  787. Sal:
  788. "Free food is marvelous, but it must meet the same standards as any other. I agree, however, that should they repair the crossing, this would be quite an enjoyable place, even if it lacks a few commodities."
  789.  
  790. Rivi:
  791. THAT VERBAL PRESSURE IS TOO STRONG
  792.  
  793. Innsma:
  794. Now where is there to sit around here...
  795.  
  796. Sanya:
  797. "Marm?" Sanya unfreezes, though she puts her hand over her mouth and looks away, "I will...help him."
  798.  
  799. Rivi:
  800. Rivi sighs with her back toward her. "I-I'm trying to take my job more seriously... " Her hair flails in the wind as she stares into the water. "That's all..."
  801.  
  802. Rivi:
  803. double hurr
  804. NotJohn:
  805. hurr hurr
  806.  
  807. Sal:
  808. There are tables inside the Chinese place, actually, though they're all empty
  809.  
  810. Katherine:
  811. "Hm? What do you mean by that?"
  812.  
  813. Sal:
  814. Sal carries her bag of food(because basically all food comes in bags here regardless of where you plan to eat it) to the table, and sets it out on one of the platters, "I wonder where Sanya has taken off to... I thought for sure she was behind us."
  815.  
  816. Teagan:
  817. "That's just what I needed to hear!" She pulls out her flashlight to make sure it's in working condition, then holsters it within reach. "Did you have anything to take care of? I'm ready when you are."
  818.  
  819. Rivi:
  820. She slumps over the edge of the boat and dips her hand into the blue fluid. "It's al fun and games until someone gets hurt, isn't that how the saying goes?"
  821.  
  822. Rivi:
  823. all*
  824. Rivi: (( I'm guessing we've set sail already ))
  825. Sanya: (( You've ))
  826.  
  827. Innsma:
  828. "Well uh...this t-table will have to do...n-not sure where everyone else is myself either. Suppose they fell behind?"
  829.  
  830. Sanya:
  831. "Ahh....she glances through her shoulder to the cafeteria, but clams up, and shakes her head, "No..."
  832.  
  833. Alloces:
  834. >Al fun and games
  835.  
  836. Alloces:
  837. Glad to see someone remembers me
  838.  
  839. Sal:
  840. "No longing for them, I suppose. There were others outside, but...I do not fancy eating with them."
  841.  
  842. Katherine:
  843. "...If you really don't want me to know what you bought, then I won't ask again, but I assure you I would not think of laughing nor make of you for it."
  844.  
  845. Jondo:
  846. yeah well fuck you too Sal, I'll just eat my Burrito Supreme in peace
  847.  
  848. Katherine:
  849. do they have fries surpreme
  850.  
  851. Katherine:
  852. that shit is goooood
  853. Jondo: (( probably ))
  854.  
  855. Teagan:
  856. "Alright! I'll just see about picking Rivi up on the way, and we're set to go. Thanks."
  857.  
  858. Innsma:
  859. Innsma tries to make sense of which end you eat this food in. "Y-yeah, I'd prefer eating alone with you myself. A little bit of hostility in y-your tone though...are they usually a pain at these venues or something?"
  860. NotJohn:
  861. you mean poutine supreme right twilty
  862.  
  863. Rivi:
  864. Reluctant to press on with it anymore, the boat ride is pretty silent for the most part. As the boat approaches the other end of the torn bridge, she murmurs, "You're still my friend though. You guys are all my friends, which is why I care so much."
  865.  
  866. Sal:
  867. "I do not know the dark-cloaked man, but Jondo's nettling attitude is not constrained to dining."
  868.  
  869. Teagan:
  870. Back to the docks, then, where we're gonna have to steal a boat by the looks of it
  871.  
  872. Katherine:
  873. "*Sigh* You know you can tell me anything. I care for you a lot too, as well as the others."
  874.  
  875. Elriz:
  876. "...right. You guys, you can't get back, can you?" This guy is still trying to rid himself of the mud
  877.  
  878. Elriz:
  879. It seems like it's pretty sticky
  880.  
  881. Rivi:
  882. "Maybe once you're tall enough to ride the thrills I go through, maybe..." Rivi smiles and gives a small jab to the scholar's shoulder.
  883.  
  884. Innsma:
  885. "Heheh, I could tell. He's uh..." Inns scratches her face shakingly "a...s-special one, that guy. A lot more bark than bite."
  886.  
  887. Rivi:
  888. "Oh hey, it's Teagan!" Riv straightens up and call out to the docks.
  889.  
  890. Katherine:
  891. "Hmm, you're a strange girl, Rivi. But that's part of your charm I suppose." Katherine smiles at her friend, and then waves to Teagan in hoping she sees them.
  892.  
  893. Teagan:
  894. "Of course we can, I can just send my Pokemon over, and - Rivi! Perfect timing!"
  895.  
  896. Rivi:
  897. "Heheh, it's not the first time I've been told that."
  898.  
  899. Brune:
  900. "You folks wanna ride back ovah? Ain'tcha just get heah half a owah ago?"
  901.  
  902. Katherine:
  903. guess we're here now
  904.  
  905. Rivi:
  906. "What's up?! Did you need us?"
  907.  
  908. Teagan:
  909. "We did, but something came up."
  910.  
  911. Teagan:
  912. "Rivi, they never found their other researching partner, Marmaduke - he's still out there! Sanya and I are running out to check up on him, could you come along?"
  913.  
  914. Sal:
  915. Sal looks to the side and sighs, "Yes. That is true, but while I revel in nothing more than to say he has no talent, that red Pokemon of his is not helpless. It certainly saved us on Route Four."
  916. Teagan: (( And I guess I SHOULD actually change my token, now that I think about it, to one of those ranger uniforms ))
  917.  
  918. Rivi:
  919. "I was actually on my way to visit Alizar to find more stuff about the kid!"
  920.  
  921. Rivi:
  922. "Well, I guess you're already on top of that though!"
  923.  
  924. Innsma:
  925. *Shudders* "I can appreciate anything that m-makes route 4 go by faster. My ankles still feel soggy from that murky bog. Really, getting punched by that talking Riolu was probably the least painful thing."
  926. Rivi: (( I ended up finding an admiral getup instead, close enough from what I could find ))
  927.  
  928. Katherine:
  929. "Hmm, I'll come along too then."
  930.  
  931. Rivi:
  932. "And in case it wasn't obvious, I'm totally going!"
  933.  
  934. Sal:
  935. Back, and I'll have to brb again some point soon
  936.  
  937. Sal:
  938. Foodage and such
  939.  
  940. Sal:
  941. "Talking...Riolu? What do you mean? Truly speaking? Or aura?"
  942.  
  943. Sal:
  944. *I actually have Pokemon Education*
  945.  
  946. Katherine:
  947. I kinda do too now : D
  948.  
  949. Teagan:
  950. "Ah - Katherine, this is something of a time-sensitive mission! There's only so much time until... we just need to get out there as quickly as we can."
  951.  
  952. Rivi:
  953. I-I'm trying to learn!
  954.  
  955. Rivi:
  956. "How are we getting out there?! Did we get spinny disks?"
  957.  
  958. Katherine:
  959. "All the more to stop talking and moving on, then."
  960.  
  961. Innsma:
  962. "Oh. s-so you were fortunate enough to avoid that guardian thingamabob. I'm sure it was s-speaking through some supernatural means. Had a mother can could d-do just the same...."
  963.  
  964. Innsma:
  965. "Also the first time I've ever seen a P-pokmeon capable of chanelling spirits in person. W-was quite the sight!"
  966.  
  967. Sal:
  968. "Riveting...lucklessly, I saw nothing of the sort. I know little of spirits, but perhaps one with a mastery of aura could reach to the other side..."
  969.  
  970. Sal:
  971. "Aura is, after all, the very soul that drives us. Spirits may contain nothing but it."
  972.  
  973. Teagan:
  974. "No, we don't have spinny discs. We're running. Katherine, don't take this the wrong way, but I don't think you can keep up! Unless you have a Pokemon you can ride, I'm going to have to say no."
  975.  
  976. Rivi:
  977. "Aww... bummer, well I guess while we wait in the boat back to Route 4, we can devise a plan?"
  978.  
  979. Sanya:
  980. Sanya shuffles around on her feet, feeling uncomfortable about someone being refused...even if it wasn't by her.
  981.  
  982. Sanya:
  983. And also burb again
  984.  
  985. Rivi:
  986. "...speaking of which, didn't you say there was another person with you? Saneyah?"
  987. Rivi: (( Retconning that shit I really didn't see her LOL ))
  988. Teagan: (( mip ))
  989.  
  990. Katherine:
  991. Katherine sighs in disappointment. "Fine, but please hurry and go. You don't exactly look the refreshed at the moment, Teagan."
  992.  
  993. Katherine:
  994. the most refreshed*
  995.  
  996. Innsma:
  997. Inns chews a small chunk of fish and swallows. "I've never been too b-big into aura myself, but I've done a fair share of reading on it. Fascinating how it works, really. I've heard spirits sufficiently augmented with enough aura can grow absurdly powerful. M-more than I could handle at least. Kinda s-scary..."
  998.  
  999. Teagan:
  1000. "I'm managing." Definitely applying another potion though. "Thanks for understanding - Innsma, Sal and Jondo are up ahead at the cafeteria if you wanted to meet up with them."
  1001.  
  1002. Teagan:
  1003. Teagan is healed and gains 20 hit points.
  1004.  
  1005. Katherine:
  1006. Katherine nods. "Good luck guys. Get back safely."
  1007.  
  1008. Innsma:
  1009. "J-just how much are you into this uh, s-spiritual stuff anyway? You seem at least partially knowledgeable about it."
  1010.  
  1011. Rivi:
  1012. "Will do!" She gives Katherine a quick hug before turning back to Teagan. "We should hurry, nature isn't nice."
  1013.  
  1014. Katherine:
  1015. "Hehe, awww stop..." She accepts the hug naturally. "Well, see ya." She waves goodbye to her friends for now.
  1016.  
  1017. Teagan:
  1018. "Of course - excuse me! You sir, on the boat, we're ready!"
  1019. Rivi: (( And now we wait for Thrice ))
  1020. Teagan: (( I'm gonna be pissed if it turns out he's already at the facility ))
  1021. Rivi: (( He's just hiding in the vending machine ))
  1022. Teagan: (( You just know it's gonna happen after all this buildup ))
  1023.  
  1024. Katherine:
  1025. Katherine heads to the cafeteria for now. "Well...might as well..." She sends out Leanne to help keep her company. "Hmm, it's been a while since I've been alone, hasn't it...?"
  1026.  
  1027. Leanne :
  1028. "Azumarill!" She happily looks at her master.
  1029.  
  1030. Katherine:
  1031. "Hehe, you're right. I'm never alone, am I? Come on, Leanne!" She then rushes to the cafeteria.
  1032.  
  1033. Rivi:
  1034. "Ah, right. Teagan! This is for you!" The psuedo-ranger pulls out a raincoat for the much more real ranger.
  1035. Rivi: (( Although Tierney would fight that til he dies ))
  1036.  
  1037. Teagan:
  1038. "A... a raincoat!" aw -shiiiiiiit- "I KNEW I was forgetting something at home! Thanks Rivi!"
  1039.  
  1040. Rivi:
  1041. "I saw them at the shop and thought we'd need some! Katherine got one for Innsma too!" Rivi twirls in place. "You wouldn't think that I'd flaunt this in front of you (like pizza) right?"
  1042.  
  1043. Teagan:
  1044. "I don't think that'd do much, I'm already wet. This windbreaker only does so much."
  1045.  
  1046. Sanya:
  1047. I am become apologies
  1048.  
  1049. Sanya:
  1050. Did not think it'd take that long
  1051.  
  1052. Rivi:
  1053. Welcome back
  1054.  
  1055. Teagan:
  1056. o but it did
  1057.  
  1058. Katherine:
  1059. Katherine then walks into the cafeteria. "Hmm, wonder where Innsma is...?"
  1060.  
  1061. Rivi:
  1062. "I've got two more Ranger outfits in the tent set that Rory gave us too! I'm sure that's a lot warmer." This time a half spin to show the huge tent set rolled up on top of her backpack.
  1063.  
  1064. Teagan:
  1065. I thought I had that (hmm)
  1066.  
  1067. Sal:
  1068. "Myself, I know little. Aura regards Pokemon, and I know much about that. The true spirits...all I know is gathered from Sanya. And given how little she speaks..."
  1069.  
  1070. Rivi:
  1071. Rivi deflated it and rolled it up, so I assumed she had all the gear for packing it up
  1072. TWILT is disconnected.
  1073.  
  1074. Rivi:
  1075. TWILT NO
  1076.  
  1077. Innsma:
  1078.  
  1079. TWILT has connected.
  1080.  
  1081. Sanya:
  1082. religious fanatics indeed
  1083.  
  1084. Rivi:
  1085. Welcome back Twilt
  1086. TWILT:
  1087. internet's being shiet randomly, sorry >.
  1088.  
  1089. Rivi:
  1090. You just missed my reaction and a BibleThump
  1091.  
  1092. Rivi:
  1093. to your DC
  1094.  
  1095. Katherine:
  1096. DC?
  1097.  
  1098. Rivi:
  1099. Disconnect
  1100.  
  1101. Katherine:
  1102. ah
  1103.  
  1104. Innsma:
  1105. "Y-yeah, I could tell that Sanya knew her stuff when it c-came to the occult. Perhaps even more than me. I sh-should really talk to her when I get a chance..."
  1106.  
  1107. Jondo:
  1108. Jondo, chowing on a second burrito, checks the door as it opens, "Oh, 'sjust you. Food's free, get it while it's hot."
  1109.  
  1110. Katherine:
  1111. "Hmm...she doesn't seem to be here..." Katherine looks around, and I guess orders some Fries Surpreme while she's here. >_>
  1112.  
  1113. Katherine:
  1114. "Ah, I see...can you point me in the direction where Innsma is?"
  1115.  
  1116. Teagan:
  1117. huh, come to think of it, I seemingly have a habit of telling people I'll talk to them later, and then never do
  1118.  
  1119. Sanya:
  1120. Sanya points at the boat, "....need to leave. Darkness..."
  1121.  
  1122. Katherine:
  1123. well this is gonna be one fun ass party split
  1124.  
  1125. Innsma:
  1126. "I wonder why she's not very quick to talk though...I did hear about one c-case over the net about a particularly famous occultist who couldn't say more than 4 words without risking the spirits within him going crazy. I wonder if she's afflicted with something similar..."
  1127.  
  1128. Teagan:
  1129. I did call out to man boatmanner
  1130.  
  1131. Rivi:
  1132. ^
  1133.  
  1134. Rivi:
  1135. Why don't you investigate the cute pokemon thing
  1136.  
  1137. Katherine:
  1138. I dunno where it is D:
  1139.  
  1140. Rivi:
  1141. Ask, dood!
  1142.  
  1143. Rivi:
  1144. Though I'm not sure if they told you where to meet/contact
  1145.  
  1146. Katherine:
  1147. The bulletin board did not
  1148.  
  1149. Jondo:
  1150. "Who? Oh, the purple chick? She's back there with the tetchy girl. Considering they sorta ignored all of us and ran off alone, I'd say they don't wanna be bothered. So feel free to crash their party, by all means."
  1151. Jondo: (( It said it was in the far lab, IIRC ))
  1152. Rivi: (( Isn't that Alizar's lab too ))
  1153.  
  1154. Katherine:
  1155. Annd where would that be...?
  1156.  
  1157. Rivi:
  1158. (hmm) Explore! Ask! Do! VERBS
  1159.  
  1160. Brune:
  1161. Brune M. Boat'Manner here starts to get the oar ready for a good pumpin', "All right, girlies, hop in!"
  1162.  
  1163. Teagan:
  1164. "Don't worry TOO much about light - this flashlight's still in good condition!"
  1165.  
  1166. Teagan:
  1167. "Yes, sir!" jeez that's a creepy token
  1168.  
  1169. Rivi:
  1170. "Yippee!" Rivi rolls back into the boat.
  1171.  
  1172. Brune:
  1173. Well
  1174.  
  1175. Brune:
  1176. There are four buildings on the whole map
  1177.  
  1178. Brune:
  1179. one's the Center
  1180.  
  1181. Brune:
  1182. one's the cafeteria
  1183.  
  1184. Brune:
  1185. and one is in the middle
  1186.  
  1187. Brune:
  1188. It shouldn't be hard to guess which is the far lab
  1189.  
  1190. Katherine:
  1191. "I see...thanks." She then knocks on the door where Innsma is.
  1192.  
  1193. Teagan:
  1194. Maps ain't always literal, c'mon
  1195.  
  1196. Rivi:
  1197. I would've never thought it was that one though, the cafeteria was the one I thought was the far lab
  1198.  
  1199. Katherine:
  1200. thank yu :3
  1201.  
  1202. Brune:
  1203. Indeed, and there's not actually a door there
  1204.  
  1205. Brune:
  1206. It's just sorta closed off
  1207.  
  1208. Katherine:
  1209. then how am I supposed to get in
  1210.  
  1211. Brune:
  1212. There's a doorWAY
  1213.  
  1214. Brune:
  1215. but no door
  1216.  
  1217. Teagan:
  1218. Through the window
  1219.  
  1220. Brune:
  1221. That's how indoor restaurants do, sometimes
  1222.  
  1223. Rivi:
  1224. Have a clown drop you through the roof
  1225.  
  1226. Innsma:
  1227. Innsma brushes her hair aside and takes another bite of her food. "But anyway, I- Oh..." She notices Kath walking her way in. "Oh, h-hey Kathy. You g-got here pretty soon..."
  1228.  
  1229. Brune:
  1230. As in, restaurants that are within the doors of other buildings, not restaurants held indoords
  1231. Teagan: (( spoilers: pedantry when the players are just trying to figure out where the hell to go is rarely endearing ))
  1232.  
  1233. Brune:
  1234. d
  1235. Brune: (( It's not pedantry, it's clarification ))
  1236. Brune: (( and she's not trying to figure out where to go ))
  1237. Brune: (( she's bothering Innsma after Jondo said she didn't wanna be bothered ))
  1238.  
  1239. Jondo:
  1240. which gets a thumbs up from him, not for Innsma, but for bothering Sal
  1241.  
  1242. Katherine:
  1243. "Ohhhh, my apologies if I'm interrupting anything. Rivi and Teags went off to do their thing, so..."
  1244.  
  1245. Rivi:
  1246. Well, we're boarded on the boat
  1247.  
  1248. Katherine:
  1249. I thought there was a door, so I knocked D:
  1250.  
  1251. Sanya:
  1252. "The dark is...cold. Dangerous. Temperature...he could freeze."
  1253.  
  1254. Innsma:
  1255. "Uhm, well..." Inns nervously twiddles her fingers and glances around. "It's uh, n-no problem. What exactly are the girls off to do precisely?"
  1256.  
  1257. Katherine:
  1258. "I believe they went off back to Route 4 to find a researcher named Marmaduke. I hope to heavens they don't encounter another Gyarados or anything."
  1259.  
  1260. Katherine:
  1261. inb4 i just jinxed you guys
  1262.  
  1263. Sal:
  1264. "Oh? A friend of yours, Innsma?" Sal smiles lightly, with her eyes almost closed.
  1265. Thrice:
  1266. Anyway, the boat does its boat thing thanks to Brune, and you're soon back at the other dock. Not super soon, but hey, it's a boat, not a teleportation device
  1267.  
  1268. Teagan:
  1269. "Of course! But at least we'll be able to make our way there... speaking of, Sanya, your group took the east loop, right? Did you happen to run into the boy?"
  1270.  
  1271. Rivi:
  1272. With a quick flip of her dex, she accesses her electronic notes of what the description of the kid looked like. "Hmm..."
  1273.  
  1274. Innsma:
  1275. "R-route 4 again, huh? This late? Sounds dangerous..." Innsma anxiously redirects her attention to Sal. "Y-yeah, Katherine, one of my partners on this expedition. She was watching that one battle before..."
  1276.  
  1277. Sanya:
  1278. "Marm...yes. Small..."
  1279.  
  1280. Katherine:
  1281. "Ah, yes, Sal was it? I don't believe we've properly met." Katherine smiles politely.
  1282.  
  1283. Leanne :
  1284. "Azumarill!" She happily jumps into Katherine's arms.
  1285.  
  1286. Katherine:
  1287. Katherine giggles. "Hehe, I'm so happy you're okay too, Leanne."
  1288. Tokens dropped onto map 'Tyndall Lake Research Facility' by player Agidius (Player)
  1289.  
  1290. Rivi:
  1291. "A short boy... short hair... and super young." She looks up. "That's what Forin said."
  1292.  
  1293. Katherine:
  1294. oh god a shota
  1295.  
  1296. Teagan:
  1297. yep
  1298.  
  1299. Sal:
  1300. "Oh, so you were. My apologies...I seem to have forgotten. Did you wish to eat with us...?" Her voice has a barely-noticeable hint of a waspish edge. Well, barely noticeable if you have Intuition at all
  1301.  
  1302. Sal:
  1303. so be glad you're not Teagan
  1304.  
  1305. Katherine:
  1306. I do indeed have Intuition
  1307.  
  1308. Teagan:
  1309. "How far away was he stationed, do you remember? A couple hours?"
  1310.  
  1311. Katherine:
  1312. Katherine notices the edge in Sal's voice. "Oh well, I won't take longer than 5 or so minutes really, but if you two really prefer to be alone, I can eat somewhere else."
  1313.  
  1314. Rivi:
  1315. rolls rolls rolls
  1316.  
  1317. Innsma:
  1318. "I d-do hope they'll be alright out there, with just them...but I trust they'll be wise enough to know what to do. Anyway, uhm..."
  1319.  
  1320. Katherine:
  1321. 15 sure I guess
  1322.  
  1323. Teagan:
  1324. who needs rolls
  1325.  
  1326. Innsma:
  1327. "Y-yeah, I uh, d-don't wanna shove you off or anything, but uh...yeah." She nervously scratches her brow hoping to not sound too dismissive.
  1328.  
  1329. Rivi:
  1330. DAT PERSONAL
  1331. SPACE
  1332.  
  1333. Katherine:
  1334. Katherine sighs. "I understand. Oh would you be up for a Pokemon Battle later or if it's too late, tomorrow? I want my Leanne to get some practice again."
  1335.  
  1336. Rivi:
  1337. you show em gurl
  1338.  
  1339. Tiffany:
  1340. Jeez, Yanma are huge
  1341.  
  1342. Rivi:
  1343. Did Thrice die agian
  1344.  
  1345. Innsma:
  1346. "Oh uh, s-sure. No problem! I'm sure my Pokemon have been itching for a battle lately too. So uh, I'll see what I can d-do..."
  1347.  
  1348. Tiffany:
  1349. he might've
  1350. Thrice:
  1351. Sorry, choked on my food
  1352.  
  1353. Rivi:
  1354. R I P
  1355. Tiffany: (( as an aside, I have enough momentum to hop into Skype now if it's open ))
  1356.  
  1357. Katherine:
  1358. Katherine nods as she leaves. "Well, not much more to do but to check out that adorable Pokemon in the far lab, I suppose..."
  1359.  
  1360. Katherine:
  1361. I'll start the call I guess
  1362.  
  1363. Sal:
  1364. "What a...pleasant girl."
  1365.  
  1366. Katherine:
  1367. Katherine then slowly walks into the Far Lab. "Ummm, hello? I'm interested in that adorable Pokemon that was up on the bulletin boards!"
  1368. Tiffany: (( I did address Sanya btw ))
  1369. Tiffany: (( asking if she knew how far away he was stationed ))
  1370.  
  1371. Sanya:
  1372. "...Far."
  1373.  
  1374. Tiffany:
  1375. you vague pizza shit
  1376.  
  1377. Innsma:
  1378. Innsma exhales in relief. "Y-yeah, she's pretty nice. My pals have been pretty invaluable when it comes to this journey. I've only known them for a short time, but they're already some of my closest...well, I'll be honest, only friends. Eh heh..."
  1379.  
  1380. Teagan:
  1381. "...right. Well, it'll be just as far no matter what. ...I wonder..." She releases Tiffany, her Yanma, BEFORE they walk into the knee-deep water
  1382.  
  1383. Teagan:
  1384. Checking to see if it, perhaps, glows in the dark.
  1385. Rivi:
  1386. Riv puts up her new rainhood as the rain pours throughout the lake.
  1387. Sanya:
  1388. It, unfortunately, does not glow in the dark
  1389. Sanya:
  1390. you need to snap it first
  1391.  
  1392. Tiffany:
  1393. *KRACK*
  1394.  
  1395. Tiffany:
  1396. *gets shaken up*
  1397.  
  1398. Innsma:
  1399. "Well uh, aside from you of course. Heh, it's p-pretty amazing...but normally I wouldn't be this open to anyone else in a m-million years. I f-feel just fine talking about all this with you though."
  1400.  
  1401. Rivi:
  1402. "Alright! You guys know more about this mission than I do, lead the way!"
  1403.  
  1404. Sal:
  1405. "Ah...it would be grand to have relateable companions, I admit. You, however, I am glad to be around. One who did so much for me.."
  1406.  
  1407. Teagan:
  1408. "Dang, I was hoping she would glow in the dark... hmm. Tiffany, let off a bit of electricity! Maybe she just needs orders."
  1409. Teagan: (( coming on a bit strong there ))
  1410. Rivi: (( I've got my popcorn ))
  1411.  
  1412. Forin:
  1413. Inside the far lab, there's only one person, sitting at a table and measuring a few liquids. That wasll, for the record, has a door leading through it; it's not solid, "Huh? Need something?"
  1414.  
  1415. Forin:
  1416. You cna't actually see anything past the door, as it's shut
  1417.  
  1418. Forin:
  1419. "Oh. You want the other room, sorry. Ain't me."
  1420.  
  1421. Sanya:
  1422. Sanya leads the way, to the east(because upside down lol), "This way..."
  1423.  
  1424. Rivi:
  1425. "Let's see if we can get more eyes out there. Rise and shi-, d-darker? ... Ah heck, let's go 'Vex!"
  1426.  
  1427. Convex:
  1428. "ALBION"
  1429.  
  1430. Katherine:
  1431. "The other room...? Would you mind pointing me where it is please?" Unless it's like right next to room, I dunno
  1432.  
  1433. Forin:
  1434. "Through that door there. I don't think they'll mind a visitor."
  1435.  
  1436. Rivi:
  1437. After catching the owl's ball she balances around the streams of water. The pattering of the water on the raincoat is a lot more plesant to hear. "Gosh this rain never let's up!"
  1438.  
  1439. Katherine:
  1440. Katherine nods as she walks into the other room. "Umm, hello? I'm interested in that adorable Pokemon.?"
  1441.  
  1442. Katherine:
  1443. if it's a Pikachu, I'm naming it Axe
  1444. Forin:
  1445. Yep, it's still raining like a motherfucker out on Route 4
  1446.  
  1447. Teagan:
  1448. "I'm starting to think it never stops."
  1449.  
  1450. Teagan:
  1451. "Every single day, rain."
  1452.  
  1453. Katherine:
  1454. Kyogre's in that route
  1455.  
  1456. Katherine:
  1457. gud luk
  1458.  
  1459. Teagan:
  1460. or just a single Politoed
  1461.  
  1462. Teagan:
  1463. a single -dick- of a Politoed
  1464.  
  1465. Rivi:
  1466. Riv spots another looking shrine on their way to the other bridge, and a bit of (wary) flows over her.
  1467. Thrice:
  1468. This shrine is not actually there (waiting) Just a product of them lazily mirroring the map
  1469.  
  1470. Rivi:
  1471. The part above no longer exists.
  1472.  
  1473. Innsma:
  1474. "Heh he..." Innsma blushes and tucks her arms away. "Y-you say that like I've gotten you the world or something. I m-mean, I'm sure that Pokemon must mean a l-lot to you...and I'm glad you appreciate it, because drat did I g-go through a lot a trouble to catch that...gah! I mean, uh, what I was saying uh...actually I guess I lost my train of thought here. *sweatdrop*"
  1475.  
  1476. Rivi:
  1477. Rivi tilts her head up just a bit. "Call out if you see anything with those strong eyes you've got there!"
  1478.  
  1479. Convex:
  1480. "Hoot!"
  1481.  
  1482. Convex:
  1483. What the heck am I looking for?! Convex stamps his one foot onto Rivi's head.
  1484.  
  1485. Researchist:
  1486. A girl glances up from a Pokedex screen, "Hoooh? Oh, you're here for Bill? Sure, sure, come on in. Just be careful not to knock anything over." This room's got some more people in, and it's full of fancy equipment the likes of which you'd expect a laboratory to have. Most of it seems to be for studying water.
  1487.  
  1488. Rivi:
  1489. PokeEdu: 9
  1490.  
  1491. Rivi:
  1492. "H-hey! I know you've been in the PC awhile, calm down!"
  1493.  
  1494. Katherine:
  1495. Katherine walks in. "Well okay..."
  1496.  
  1497. Innsma:
  1498. "But uh, anyway! I'm glad the feeling is mutual. Do you uh, have any other 'relatale companions' anyway? I haven't seen you talk too often to your partners there...well, perhaps for good reason, but still.."
  1499.  
  1500. Teagan:
  1501. "It HAS been a while since I've seen Convex... wasn't it back at Trayli's gym?"
  1502.  
  1503. Rivi:
  1504. "Y-yeah... There's been a lot of gifts to the PC since we started coming this way..." Rivi's head gets stomped on again. Intuition: 10
  1505.  
  1506. Sal:
  1507. "I'm sure you did! They are difficult to find, even moreso to capture. I always wanted one... Sanya, she does not understand me well. And Jondo...the less I speak to him, the better off I am."
  1508.  
  1509. Rivi:
  1510. Rivi's lightbulb goes off. "O-ohh... I haven't even told you what we're looking for yet! Ahaha! Silly me!" Rivi goes to explain as much as she knows, but the owl isn't as pleased with the poor amount of detail.
  1511.  
  1512. Katherine:
  1513. Katherine looks around the room. "Some interesting techology here..."
  1514.  
  1515. Alizar:
  1516. There's only one familiar face in the room, who seems to be making modifications to a little disc thing. However, he's havign a hard time of it, because there's someone else in the room, and his Pokemon are jumping around everywhere. Well, two of them are. The third just sort of hides behind some equipment. Anyway, these things are in danger of damaging something. "Why did you bring those things in here?!"
  1517.  
  1518. Yet Another Dude:
  1519. "I can't control it! Anywhere I go, these little things follow me. It's always been like this! Do you know how hard it makes any sort of research?"
  1520.  
  1521. Rivi:
  1522. I thought that was Bill for a sec
  1523.  
  1524. Katherine:
  1525. "Umm, did I come here at a bad time?"
  1526.  
  1527. Rivi:
  1528. YAD
  1529.  
  1530. Rivi:
  1531. (waiting)
  1532.  
  1533. Rivi:
  1534. weight fast
  1535. Thrice:
  1536. For the Route 4 no-gooders, it's mostly smooth sailing - Jondo, Sanya, and Sal likely took care of most of the little critters when they came through. However, it's not long at all before you happen upon something
  1537.  
  1538. Yet Another Dude:
  1539. "Huh? Shucks, no worse than any other time. You a researcher I ain't met yet?"
  1540.  
  1541. Yet Another Dude:
  1542. dat manga Bill
  1543.  
  1544. Teagan:
  1545. Teagan notices how Sanya seems to not disturb the water despite walking through it just like any of the rest of 'em. "How does she DO that...?" She whispers to herself.
  1546.  
  1547. Innsma:
  1548. "Eesh. Sounds rough. Must get kinda lonely out there? I c-can't imagine having to spend all that time wading through the routes without at least having some good frineds to chat with r-regularly. Which is uh...probably why I spent a lot of time at home, eh heh."
  1549.  
  1550. Katherine:
  1551. "Oh nonono, though I do express in Pokemon researching. Right now, I'm just a Pokemon Trainer on a adventure."
  1552.  
  1553. Rivi:
  1554. Wtih all this rain out here and the ever so slow darkness, Rivi's eyes are having an increasingly difficult time seeing past the dense rainfall.
  1555. NotJohn:
  1556. ^em
  1557. NotJohn:
  1558. emo
  1559.  
  1560. Innsma:
  1561. "Chatting with roaming spirits can be f-fun at times, but they're often too obsessed with just one thing...or at times utterly incomprehensible. What few spirits with their heads on straight are rare, and tend to pass onto the afterlife all to quick. *Sigh*"
  1562. Thrice:
  1563. "Wah! No! Get awa-a-aay from meee!" The fuck was that? Is someone beating the shit out of a eunuch? There's a few odd shapes in the distance, all moving erratically. Running through the heavy rain, the situation quickly becomes clearer, and you start to wonder why the hell you were worried in the first place. There's a...boy, I guess? It's tough to tell. Maybe this is Marm? Whatever, shortstack's rolling around in the water, trying to fend off a gaggle of blue Pokemon, who seem to be 'playing' together with him, in the form of slinging mud at him. As a result, the kid's absolutely covered in the stuff, much to his dismay. Like, he's basically got an accidental mud-fort going on there.
  1564.  
  1565. Sal:
  1566. "I...would not know of communication with spirits... But I can relate to loneliness. I was rarely at home, but made few friends."
  1567.  
  1568. Sal:
  1569. A couple yards from the kid lies some strewn-about video equipment, also slathered in mud. From what you can gather, the guy was probably trying to study the Pokemon's behaviour, or maybe just walking by, when they noticed him and dragged him into their playtime. The kid squelches himself out of the mud, frantically crawls on his hands and knees a few steps in your direction, and pleas,
  1570.  
  1571. Sal:
  1572. no
  1573.  
  1574. Sal:
  1575. that was not me
  1576.  
  1577. Kid:
  1578. "Y-you've got to help me get away! These Pokemon are nuts! A-all I was trying to do was get some data for the boss... And now all the equipment's ruuuuiiiined..."
  1579.  
  1580. Rivi:
  1581. "I think... we found our kiddo!"
  1582.  
  1583. Teagan:
  1584. "Don't worry about it - we've got you!"
  1585.  
  1586. Rivi:
  1587. "The sooner we're done here, the faster we're out of the rain! With Marm with us no less!"
  1588.  
  1589. Rivi:
  1590. 11 Poke Edu.
  1591.  
  1592. Swampert:
  1593. These things are fairly popular Pokemon to give to kids just starting out
  1594.  
  1595. Teagan:
  1596. 10 sure whynayt
  1597. Katherine:
  1598. heyheyhey catch me that Swampert pls :D
  1599.  
  1600. Swampert:
  1601. They seem to be good with kids
  1602.  
  1603. Teagan:
  1604. *whynaut
  1605.  
  1606. Swampert:
  1607. see, they even build forts!
  1608.  
  1609. Swampert:
  1610. kids like forts right
  1611.  
  1612. Kid:
  1613. noooooo
  1614. NotJohn:
  1615. only pillow forts
  1616.  
  1617. Teagan:
  1618. "Hey, all of you! Back off!" aw -man- I could go for some intimidate right now
  1619.  
  1620. Swampert:
  1621. The Swampert looks over at you, and raises a ball of mud questioningly, as if to ask, "Wanna join?"
  1622.  
  1623. Rivi:
  1624. Rivi dashes up to approach before making any hostile actions, testing out the reaction of the apprehends.
  1625.  
  1626. Rivi:
  1627. ers*
  1628.  
  1629. Tiffany:
  1630. Tiffany crackles with electricity, in her own effort to scare off the water types!
  1631.  
  1632. Tiffany:
  1633. The... water/ground types
  1634.  
  1635. Tiffany:
  1636. the ground types
  1637.  
  1638. Tiffany:
  1639. save me
  1640. Katherine:
  1641. nub
  1642.  
  1643. Yet Another Dude:
  1644. "Oh, then you're here to take one of these lovable varmints off mah hands? Great!"
  1645.  
  1646. Katherine:
  1647. "Varmints...?" She walks in to see what these Pokemon look like.
  1648.  
  1649. Katherine:
  1650. 12 I guess Pokemon Education roll to see if I know what they are.
  1651.  
  1652. Yet Another Dude:
  1653. Yeah, Eevee are pretty well-known, and considered rather rare
  1654.  
  1655. Innsma:
  1656. "I see...g-guess we're both alike in that way...I'm honestly quite surprised. D-didn't expect us to be similar in that regard at all..."
  1657.  
  1658. Yet Another Dude:
  1659. Outside of Kalos and some parts of Unova, at least
  1660. NotJohn:
  1661. Katherine: Those are... Aggron right?
  1662.  
  1663. Tiffany:
  1664. it's a -shit- Eevee
  1665.  
  1666. Tiffany:
  1667. DAMMIT SKYPE
  1668.  
  1669. Katherine:
  1670. "Awwwww, Eevees! They looks so cute~!" She looks at them in awe.
  1671.  
  1672. Katherine:
  1673.  
  1674. Rivi:
  1675. Rivi inches one more step closer.
  1676.  
  1677. Tiffany:
  1678. she's gonna take it up the butt
  1679.  
  1680. Eevee:
  1681. This one's not actually causing any trouble
  1682.  
  1683. Innsma:
  1684. "M-me, personally, everyone else just kinda scared me. I s-suppose I could have made more friends if I wanted to b-but..." Innsma grabs the lock of her hair. "I dunno. I guess I was afraid everyone would see m-me as weird and creepy...probably not an undeserved title, but still, eheh..."
  1685.  
  1686. Eevee 2:
  1687. The others, however... This one keeps jumping on things, bouncing around the whole room!
  1688.  
  1689. Katherine:
  1690. Katherine observes how the other Eevees are acting
  1691.  
  1692. Eevee 1:
  1693. And this one is biting at Bill's ankles!
  1694.  
  1695. Rivi:
  1696. Seeing how the mud gang isn't reacting and still having fun, Rivi splashes her way over to the enforted boy. "H-hey are you alright?!"
  1697.  
  1698. Teagan:
  1699. aw man now she ded
  1700.  
  1701. Sal:
  1702. "It is not something I readily admit. I have always been inadequate at lasting relationships... It seems there is something others dislike of me."
  1703.  
  1704. Swampert:
  1705. welp
  1706.  
  1707. Swampert:
  1708. Where exactly'd ya go, like right in front of him?
  1709.  
  1710. Katherine:
  1711. "Ummm, you sure don't need any help?" She says looking at the Eevee biting Bill. "Hmm, the other one seems a tad wild..."
  1712.  
  1713. Katherine:
  1714. *SAVES FILE HERE SO I CAN RESET AND PICK THE EEVEE WITH THE RIGHT NATURE I WANT except nah (sad)*
  1715.  
  1716. Marshtomp:
  1717. While you're kneeling next to the boy, thsi one goes to add some more mud to the fort! He splashes up some of the stuff and tosses it! And...you happen to be standing right in front of it
  1718.  
  1719. Marshtomp:
  1720. 18 GET SKREKT
  1721.  
  1722. Marshtomp:
  1723. ...
  1724.  
  1725. Teagan:
  1726. no
  1727.  
  1728. Marshtomp:
  1729. 1d6+3 | 28
  1730.  
  1731. Marshtomp:
  1732. And -1 Accuracy (waiting)
  1733.  
  1734. Rivi:
  1735. Rivi gets smacked across the back of the head! Thankfully, covered by the rainhood, but shit that hurt.
  1736.  
  1737. Rivi:
  1738. Rivi took 22 damage.
  1739.  
  1740. Yet Another Dude:
  1741. "Only help I need --- dagflabbit!" He shakes off the Eevee around his ankle, "Is someone to take this thing off my hands! Er, feet."
  1742.  
  1743. Rivi:
  1744. "A-ack!" Riv nearly falls over the mud fort!
  1745.  
  1746. Katherine:
  1747. hmm would Bill know what nature these Eevees are exactly? (Waiting)
  1748.  
  1749. Katherine:
  1750. Either way...
  1751.  
  1752. Innsma:
  1753. "R-really? I can't possibly see how...you're just so...I dunno. So kind and supportive. Moreso than anyone else I've ever met. Unless there's uh...some other aspect of you I don't know of? Not that I'll f-force you to tell me or anything..."
  1754.  
  1755. Katherine:
  1756. She walks up the one that's actually not doing anything, and knees down. "Hello there, little guy.! You seem to be a good little one." She pets the one right in front of her.
  1757.  
  1758. Rivi:
  1759. Riv rubs the back of her head and turns to see the Marshtomp having fun. "O-oooh, 'cuse me!" She backs out of the way and to the side, but probably into another Marsh.
  1760.  
  1761. Leanne :
  1762. "Azu?" Leanne walks to the one that bit Bill.
  1763.  
  1764. Sal:
  1765. "I do not know. It is difficult to judge one's own character. I've my ideas, but...they are unimportant."
  1766.  
  1767. Rivi:
  1768. She tries again to pull the boy out of the mud funeral.
  1769.  
  1770. Eevee:
  1771. The one not doing anything is sitting under a table, watching the others play, wearing a worried look
  1772.  
  1773. Marshtomp 1:
  1774. OI QUIT THAT YA POSH MUTHAFUCKAH
  1775.  
  1776. Marshtomp 1:
  1777. The Marshtomp smacks you out of the way! 5 Or tries to
  1778.  
  1779. Teagan:
  1780. "Rivi, get out of there!" Teagan goes over her Yanma's options with her Pokedex...
  1781.  
  1782. Marshtomp 1:
  1783. 1d8+8 | 18
  1784.  
  1785. Marshtomp 1:
  1786. You are Pushed 2 meters
  1787.  
  1788. Innsma:
  1789. "Y-yeah, I know what you mean. That's part of what makes socializing s-so scary. It almost makes me wanna cry sometimes..."
  1790.  
  1791. Marshtomp 1:
  1792. Toward the Yanma-ish
  1793.  
  1794. Marshtomp 1:
  1795. not the Swampert
  1796.  
  1797. Rivi:
  1798. Rivi took 8 damage.
  1799.  
  1800. Innsma:
  1801. "That's why I've f-found having friends willing to keep it real with you are so valuable. And well, anyone to talk to at all."
  1802.  
  1803. Rivi:
  1804. "A-ahck!!" Rivi slides on her heels through the water (and flames) and kneels to regain her balance.
  1805.  
  1806. Rivi:
  1807. "It's not use! I can't get close enough, they think he's the next best thing to a grand opening!"
  1808.  
  1809. Teagan:
  1810. "Alright - Marmaduke, stay down! We'll take these things on!" A bit more Dexing in preparation for the combat that's to come, aaand I think we're ready to be added to initiative
  1811.  
  1812. Sal:
  1813. "I know little of 'keeping it real', if I must confess... I do enjoy speaking with others, of course, but it seems oftentimes that is not reciprocated."
  1814.  
  1815. Kid:
  1816. "W-what?! Just get these guys off me!"
  1817.  
  1818. Rivi:
  1819. "W-wait!" Rivi backs up a step. "What do you have planned?"
  1820.  
  1821. Eevee 1:
  1822. The one that bit Bill smiles at Leanne with sharp, pointed teeth. At least, maybe it's a smile. Who knows, could be a sneer.
  1823.  
  1824. Teagan:
  1825. "Pull out Vanny, and prepare to run - we'll fight them while retreating, to pull them off of him!"
  1826.  
  1827. Leanne :
  1828. aw hell naw is that a challenge

  1838.  
  1839. Eevee 2:
  1840. apparently these things weigh like 15 pounds
  1841.  
  1842. Eevee 2:
  1843. so that might not be too comfortable
  1844.  
  1845. Katherine:
  1846. "Hmm, they sure seem to be to playf- Ehh?!"
  1847.  
  1848. Rivi:
  1849. Rivi nods and takes note of the command. "You got it!" Rivi turns tail and swipes a ball off her coat belt. "I'll strike after your plan!" Stalling turn til after Tiff
  1850.  
  1851. Leanne :
  1852. "Azumarill!" She motions at the Eevee to get off her master!
  1853.  
  1854. Eevee:
  1855. The little one lets you pet it just fine, without biting your hand off
  1856.  
  1857. Eevee:

  1860. Eevee 2:
  1861. The Eevee jumps off Kath's head, and straight onto Leanne's! Fuck you I do what I watn
  1862. Rivi has received initiative.
  1863.  
  1864. Rivi:
  1865. Rivi throws her ball combo at Marshtomp 1! 6
  1866.  
  1867. Rivi:

  1877. "AZUMARILL!" She shakes off the Eevee on her head.
  1878.  
  1879. Rivi:
  1880. The ball bursts open to reveal a bladed swordswoman!
  1881.  
  1882. Eevee 2:
  1883. Screw that I'm Grappling you
  1884.  
  1885. Katherine:

  2982. "Whaddaya thinkin'? Just takin' on a Gym Leader don't prove yer a good person. An' neither does tryin' ta bribe my Eevee! You got any Pokemon that evolve with happiness? Though I guess ya wouldn't know whichn's those are..."
  2983.  
  2984. Sanya:
  2985. my everything hurts
  2986.  
  2987. Sanya:
  2988. but I am unconscious and cannot feel it
  2989.  
  2990. Teagan:
  2991. I know, I know
  2992.  
  2993. Teagan:
  2994. we'll fix that, by making you conscious
  2995.  
  2996. Rivi:
  2997. "Gah! That should do it." She turns up to Teagan. "How's Sanya?"
  2998.  
  2999. Teagan:
  3000. = D
  3001.  
  3002. Rivi:
  3003. = D
  3004.  
  3005. Sal:
  3006. "ARe you exhausted, Innsma? Hmm...perhaps we should head to the Center, after all, if you're wanting for sleep."
  3007.  
  3008. Rivi:
  3009. Rivi sticks out her arms to display that the boy is not dead and muddy.
  3010.  
  3011. Kid:
  3012. The kid crawls out of his mudcastle, EXTREMELY MUDDY but less extremely dead
  3013.  
  3014. Teagan:
  3015. "Unconscious... and really light. Maybe it's from being part ghost?"
  3016.  
  3017. Katherine:
  3018. so wait quickly checking the PTU dex
  3019.  
  3020. Rivi:
  3021. "I've never seen anything like a ghosty person before, it's so weird! More than me almost!"
  3022.  
  3023. Katherine:
  3024. it says Eevee evolves into Umbreon via Dusk Stone
  3025.  
  3026. Kid:
  3027. It does indeed say that, but considering I'm not too lazy to track Loyalty, I'm going with that
  3028.  
  3029. Teagan:
  3030. not in this universe, sally
  3031.  
  3032. Kid:
  3033. Besides, it should evolve via MOON stone
  3034.  
  3035. Teagan:
  3036. fiat trumps all
  3037.  
  3038. Kid:
  3039. because Umbreon is -literally all about the moon-
  3040.  
  3041. Rivi:
  3042. Rivi continues to demud the boy. "How are you feeling now?"
  3043.  
  3044. Vanny Lee:
  3045. I'll cut your face off!
  3046.  
  3047. Innsma:
  3048. "Hmm, I g-guess we can afford to do that then. I wonder how the rest are doing r-right now...."
  3049.  
  3050. Kid:
  3051. Kid dredges muck out of his ears, eyes, nose, mouth, and other assorted orifices, "Aaauuuwaahh....so cold... and slimy..."
  3052.  
  3053. Katherine:
  3054. "I unfortunately do not...any chance we can perhaps make a deal?"
  3055.  
  3056. Teagan:
  3057. "We'll get you cleaned up back at the lab- oh wow, that's a lot of mud."
  3058.  
  3059. Rivi:
  3060. "Oh crap, uhm..." Riv looks for something to give him to warm him up. "Ah to heck with it!" She takes off her rain coat and wraps it around the boy. "We're leaving now! The sooner the better!" After a moment she pauses before speaking. "Are you Marm?"
  3061.  
  3062. Rivi:
  3063. She turns to her allied Pokemon. "Alright you two! In you go! It's getting dark out and it's warmer inside the balls."
  3064.  
  3065. Bill:
  3066. "Well now yer the one who ain't carin' bout what it wants. I don't really wanna part with 'er... Well...if you can get these other two off my hands, to good people who won't hurt 'em or stuff 'em in a box forever, I'll....I'll see what I can do."
  3067.  
  3068. Kid:
  3069. "M-Marm? Yeah, that's me...How do you know?"
  3070.  
  3071. Katherine:
  3072. "Well hear me out for a second. How about I pay you for that Eevee right now for 1000? But if I can show that I truly care for that Eevee by evolving it into either an Umbreon, or an Espeon, I get it back?"
  3073.  
  3074. Rivi:
  3075. "Well, we're here to get out out of here! People are worried about you." Rivi helps him up to his feet. "We ready Teagan?"
  3076.  
  3077. Bill:
  3078. "That'd...sorta be givin' it to ya long before I know what yer gonna do with it. Sides, you're the one who's been sayin' a thousand. Ya know how much these things normally sell fer at a Breeder?"
  3079.  
  3080. Innsma:
  3081. Innsma stretches for a bit. "*Phew*..guess it's easier the second time around. Still f-feeling kinda sore from that beating yesterday though.."
  3082.  
  3083. Teagan:
  3084. "We should be - it's probably not worth gathering up your equipment just yet, it's ruined anyway... the research facility isn't much farther away, are you good to walk?"
  3085.  
  3086. Sal:
  3087. "Then you should rest! I'm sure we can set that bed up again... Or perhaps there are free rooms now."
  3088.  
  3089. Katherine:
  3090. "Then how about a time limit? If I don't evolve before say, I get my second gym badge, which is located here...I'll give that Eevee and you get to keep the money too."
  3091.  
  3092. Katherine:
  3093. "And trust me, I AM determined to get it."
  3094.  
  3095. Katherine:
  3096. even though it'll prolly take like 5 tries
  3097.  
  3098. Kid:
  3099. "Yeah, I can walk, just fine."
  3100.  
  3101. Innsma:
  3102. "R-right, it was kinda busy before...perhaps we should try asking. S-seems less action packed since the last visit here."
  3103.  
  3104. Rivi:
  3105. "Anything you can salvage from your gear?" Riv inquires.
  3106.  
  3107. Teagan:
  3108. "I still can't believe no one bothered to reach you, they've been back at the base for... well, not very long either! Shouldn't Alizar have reached you both on that disc of his? It looked like we got here just in time!"
  3109.  
  3110. Innsma:
  3111. And so Inns asks the nurse if there -are- any free rooms available and if she can not sleep on a bunch of floofs. "Well, are th-there?"
  3112.  
  3113. Bill:
  3114. "That's not even possible. Ya know how lnog it takes to build up a real bond with a Pokemon? It took Gold weeks. And he's a Champion! Look, what I ask ain't too tough. If ya can find these guys good homes, then I guess I can part with the one I actually ---ARGH!" the little bastard Eevee bit him again, "With the one that doesn't bite my toes off!"
  3115.  
  3116. Alizar 1:
  3117. Alizar is busy testing his vehicle now
  3118.  
  3119. Alizar 1:
  3120. which involves much spinning
  3121.  
  3122. Rivi:
  3123. GOD I WANT IT
  3124.  
  3125. Rivi:
  3126. Rivi concentrates and regains 3 AP.
  3127.  
  3128. Jackie:
  3129. "Actually, that caped guy checked out, said he was tired a' waitin' for Gaol to show up. So, there is a room for ya!"
  3130. Teagan: (( only one bed ))
  3131. Rivi: (( One pillow too ))
  3132.  
  3133. Innsma:
  3134. "Oh! J-just in time too! Great! I'll b-be taking that if you don't mind, keh."
  3135. Teagan: (( don't worry, Sal can use Innsma's bones as pillows ))
  3136. Rivi: (( extra boney ))
  3137.  
  3138. Jackie:
  3139. "Sure thing. First come, first served. And don't worry, it's free n' all."
  3140.  
  3141. Katherine:
  3142. "Hmm, alright fine. I'll concede for now. I'll show these little Eevees good homes."
  3143.  
  3144. Katherine:
  3145. Hmm is there any chance you can give me ownership to see it's stats : D
  3146.  
  3147. Rivi:
  3148. u aint no stat ace
  3149. Agidius is disconnected.
  3150. Agidius is disconnected.
  3151.  
  3152. Kid:
  3153. "I've been walking back the whole time... It took forever to get here! And those duck things took out Drei..."
  3154.

  3169.  
  3170. Katherine:
  3171. "Hmm..." She looks at Eevee 2. "I'll take this one off your hands right now, if it's still free~"
  3172.  
  3173. Yvana:
  3174. Yvana gained 87 experience! (650) Level up! Gained 1 levels. Level 23
  3175.  
  3176. Cherish:
  3177. Cherish's HP rose!
  3178.  
  3179. Innsma:
  3180. "Th-thanks...phew, awfully long day today." She clumsily looks around for the room before eventually locating it.
  3181.  
  3182. Vanny Lee:
  3183. Vanny Lee gained 29 experience! (446) Level 20
  3184.  
  3185. Bill:
  3186. "...really? I'm askin' ya to bring some people here to take 'em. Why would ya take that 'n if you're just gonna end up givin' it away?"
  3187.  
  3188. Katherine:
  3189. "Oh no. I actually want it for myself. Don't worry though; you have my word I won't box it."
  3190.  
  3191. Sal:
  3192. "I'll see you in the morning, then, Innsma! Now to find a place out here..."
  3193.  
  3194. Bill:
  3195. "Yer gonna take two of 'em? Guess I don't have a problem with that..."
  3196.  
  3197. Katherine:
  3198. jokes on him
  3199.  
  3200. Katherine:
  3201. I have a Dusk Stone
  3202. Thrice:
  3203. Dusk Stone doesn't evolve it, it's Loyalty here
  3204. Thrice:
  3205. I already said that
  3206.  
  3207. Katherine:
  3208. "Alright then..." She looks at Eevee 2. "I choose you, Eevee!"
  3209.  
  3210. Rivi:
  3211. "Well, you're almost back now, and you don't have any mud slingers to stop you!" Rivi tries to shield herself from the fresh feeling of wet rain. "Do you need anything from your equipment before we leave?"
  3212.  
  3213. Yet Another Dude:
  3214. "That was a lotta arguin' fer somethin' just to change your mind at tha end.."
  3215.  
  3216. Eevee 2:
  3217. The Eevee is still in a tank of water, you might wanna fish it out
  3218.  
  3219. Eevee 2:
  3220. it's just sorta been swimming there
  3221.  
  3222. Katherine:
  3223. "Oh no, I'll be back for that other Eevee too. They look so cute too!"
  3224.  
  3225. Leanne :
  3226. don't worry coach
  3227.  
  3228. Leanne :
  3229. I got this
  3230.  
  3231. Eevee 2:
  3232. how high can you jump
  3233.  
  3234. Eevee 2:
  3235. The tank's about 2 meters tall, meaning you probably can't clear it without a DC16(I think) Acro check to increase your High Jump to 3(as High Jump of 2 would just endu p hitting the rim)
  3236.  
  3237. Leanne :
  3238. 12 pls
  3239. Rivi: (( 19 ))
  3240.  
  3241. Eevee 2:
  3242. She runs up, and slams into the tank! It starts to crack...
  3243.  
  3244. Innsma:
  3245. "Oh uh...r-right. Guess it'd only be right to.....*ahem* So you're gonna try and find someplace else here to sleep? Well....g-good lcuk with that."
  3246.  
  3247. Leanne :
  3248. "Azu!...Azu..?"
  3249.  
  3250. Katherine:
  3251. "Leanne?!...maybe I'll just pick it out of the tank..."
  3252.  
  3253. Eevee 2:
  3254. The Eevee takes the hint! It slams into the side itself!
  3255.  
  3256. Eevee 2:
  3257. 7 if it can hit
  3258.  
  3259. Eevee 2:
  3260. 2d8+10 | 31
  3261.  
  3262. Eevee 2:
  3263. The tank shatters, spilling water everywhere! And this happy Eevee rides the waves.
  3264.  
  3265. Eevee:
  3266. Whereas this one balks at the water and backs up even further
  3267.  
  3268. Leanne :
  3269. "Azuuu..."
  3270.  
  3271. Eevee 1:
  3272. This one glances up but decides to keep nibbling Bill's toes
  3273.  
  3274. Katherine:
  3275. "Ummmmm....Sorry about that.."
  3276.  
  3277. Alizar:
  3278. "Wh-wha-what-what'r-what're you doing to my lab?! Oh, these stupid furballs!"
  3279.  
  3280. Katherine:
  3281. "Leanne return -_-"
  3282.  
  3283. Katherine:
  3284. "Umm, I guess if you could give me that Eevee's Pokeball, I'll be on my way."
  3285.  
  3286. Sal:
  3287. "Yes, I fear so... I'll surely find a pouf or such."
  3288.  
  3289. Rivi:
  3290. COME ON INNSMA
  3291.  
  3292. Rivi:
  3293. COME OOOON
  3294.  
  3295. Yet Another Dude:
  3296. "POkeball? If they had Pokeballs I'd just return 'em! But they don't. Gotta use yer own."
  3297.  
  3298. Katherine:
  3299. "Oh come on..." *Sigh* She uses her only great ball then. ._.
  3300. Agidius has connected.
  3301.  
  3302. Eevee 2:

  3304.  
  3305. Eevee 2:

  3308. Eevee 2:
  3309. LOOK AT THAT FAGGOT
  3310.  
  3311. Innsma:

  3313.  
  3314. Tiffany:
  3315. Tiffany gained 43 experience! (296) Level up! Gained 1 levels. Level 17

  3319.  
  3320. Marm:
  3321. "I want all of it...but none of it works anymore... I'll have to buy a new camera."
  3322.  
  3323. Katherine:
  3324. "Hey there! Well...I should get going. Sorry for all the trouble. I realllly want that Eevee too...and I will be back for it, don't get me wrong."
  3325.  
  3326. Katherine:
  3327. >Giving this Eevee sprint and not adaptability
  3328.  
  3329. Katherine:
  3330. monster
  3331.  
  3332. Rivi:
  3333. "Well, we'll bring it with us and see if Alizar can do something about it, salavaging stuff, ya know?" Rivi squats to shove the mud off the equipment and carries it too.
  3334.  
  3335. Innsma:
  3336. "My room has two beds, so uh...it's not out of the question f-for you to....uh... occupy one." Her face turns as red as a ground cherry (which really aren't very red so that isn't a good comparison in the slightest.)
  3337.  
  3338. Innes:
  3339. Innes gained 44 experience! (307) Level up! Gained 1 levels. Level 17
  3340.

  3345. Innes's Defense rose!
  3346.  
  3347. Katherine:
  3348. hm is Flareon any better in this game
  3349.  
  3350. Teagan:
  3351. Teagan collects Innes's ball while she's o'er 'ere
  3352.  
  3353. Teagan:
  3354. Aand... "You there, er... I didn't catch your name. Do you want to stay out in the rain, or hop back in your master's ball? We're taking her back to the Pokemon center."
  3355.  
  3356. Kokoro :
  3357. "Eevee!" She then jumps onto Katherine's shoulders.
  3358.  
  3359. Sal:
  3360. "Oh? It does? My...then I shall graciously accept that offer! Certainly, a room with you is much more favourable than the alternative."
  3361.  
  3362. Yvana:
  3363. Yvana just ignores you and starts walking back toward the Center. How she knows where that is is anyone's guess as nobody has Pokemon Education
  3364.  
  3365. Kokoro :
  3366. goddamnit why is Flareon the only physical atack based Eeveelution (sad)
  3367.  
  3368. Teagan:
  3369. "Out in the rain it is."
  3370.  
  3371. Rivi:
  3372. "Hahaha, I'm not sure about you guys but I don't want to catch a cold! Let's roll!"
  3373.  
  3374. Katherine:
  3375. Any of you have a Leaf Stone they like to donate (waiting)
  3376.  
  3377. Yvana:
  3378. Rivi sold hers
  3379.  
  3380. Yvana:
  3381. lel

  3383. Teagan:
  3384. find your own damn leaf stone (D)
  3385.  
  3386. Teagan:
  3387. Or steal it from someone else
  3388.  
  3389. Innsma:
  3390. Inns' face flushes with a wide, though wobbly, smile. "I'm g-glad you think that way! Ehm...." She heads inside the room itself and takes in that stale hotel room smell
  3391.  
  3392. Sanya:
  3393. ow
  3394.  
  3395. Teagan:
  3396. I know, I know
  3397.  
  3398. Sal:
  3399. it's better than nothing
  3400.  
  3401. Rivi:
  3402. "I don't think we're that far out either!" Rivi leads the charge with equipment and such. "What were you researching out there?" @Marm
  3403.  
  3404. Katherine:
  3405. Assuming we say our goodbyes, Katherine leaves the Far Lab. "*sigh* Now who would want an Eevee...?"
  3406.  
  3407. Teagan:
  3408. anyone
  3409.  
  3410. Innsma:
  3411. "Just uh..." Innsma looks over and then sits on her bed.
  3412.  
  3413. Rivi:
  3414. Allie
  3415.  
  3416. Marm:
  3417. "Just Pokemon behaviour...Same thing we were all here for. I was studying those Lombre first! But then...that didn't work out..."
  3418.  
  3419. Johnny:
  3420. Sending Johnny back to the Box for now.
  3421.  
  3422. Rivi:
  3423. We'll never see him again
  3424.  
  3425. Katherine:
  3426. you saw Leanne again (d)
  3427.  
  3428. Marm:
  3429. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsklZgTpXr0
  3430.  
  3431. Marm:
  3432. Lotad's cry
  3433.  
  3434. Teagan:
  3435. "The rest of your team didn't have much success either."
  3436.  
  3437. Marm:
  3438. "Th-they made it back?"
  3439.  
  3440. Rivi:
  3441. "Yeah! We bumped into them first. They had some tadpole... frog things to deal with, you should've saw their frustrated faces!"
  3442.  
  3443. Sal:
  3444. "Oh? Yes?" Sal sets her stuff by her bed, then turns to face Innsma
  3445.  
  3446. Rivi:
  3447. EYE CONTACT
  3448.  
  3449. Innsma:
  3450. "J-just don't try anything weird tonight, o-okay? I mean i know it's k-kinda awkward...what with sharing a room and all but...yeah..."
  3451.  
  3452. Katherine:
  3453. "...It's getting late. I should be heading back to the Center..." She does just that, unless something's stopping me.
  3454.  
  3455. Marm:
  3456. "Ah...I never saw them..."
  3457.  
  3458. Innsma:
  3459. A moment later she prompty feels absolutely spaghettified for even impyling something like that and turns away, lying face-first on the bed.
  3460.  
  3461. Rivi:
  3462. "We bumped into Alizar too before we met any other researcher!" Rivi continuing to stroll along. "He's got a cool spin disk, isn't it cool!?"
  3463.  
  3464. Sal:
  3465. Sal's eyes widen, then she blinks a few times before her smile returns, "Er...um...of course not, Innsma..."
  3466.  
  3467. Sal:
  3468. It's too early for that (sinisteR)
  3469.  
  3470. Katherine:
  3471. As Kathy heads back to the Center, she pets her little Eevee. "Hmm, what should you evolve into? You seem a little, er, jumpy, heh."
  3472.  
  3473. Teagan:
  3474. "If I'm going to be completely honest, it seems like your team has some issues with communication."
  3475.  
  3476. Kokoro :
  3477. "Eevee!" She jumps ahead as if to race back to the Center.
  3478.  
  3479. Kokoro :
  3480. The Eevee, which ain't quite under your control yet, bounces around the dock's pillars
  3481.  
  3482. Katherine:
  3483. "H-hey, get back here!"
  3484.  
  3485. Rivi:
  3486. "Could use some waterproof phones too."
  3487.  
  3488. Innsma:
  3489. It's always too early (D) And so Innsma makes a head motion in her pillow that looks vaguely like a nod and heads to sleep.
  3490.  
  3491. Kokoro :
  3492. Running fast as it can, jumping between the pillars and crisscrossing back and forth , the Eevee pays little heed to you, absorbed in its little game
  3493.  
  3494. Katherine:
  3495. "Hmm..."
  3496.  
  3497. Marm:
  3498. "Uhm...Yeah. I sorta noticed that...."
  3499.  
  3500. Katherine:
  3501. 11 Command Check to try and get her to listen to me.
  3502. Thrice:
  3503. Straight Command checks can force a Pokemon to obey in battle, mostly to keep the flow going, but you gotta be more elegant outside it
  3504. tirkeyKujo is disconnected.
  3505.  
  3506. Katherine:
  3507. "Kokoro, hey come on! I'll get some food for you!" So what are my other options here (hmm)
  3508.  
  3509. Marm:
  3510. "Alizar's sorta old-fashioned. And, Jen, and Elriz only just started working together."
  3511.  
  3512. Kokoro :
  3513. The Eevee whips around and the promise of food, and skips across the pillars toward you! 10 Just be thankful it has Skill Improvement
  3514.  
  3515. Rivi:
  3516. "Does it always storm like crazy on the lake?" She feels a cough and delivers it to the inner-side of her shoulder.
  3517.  
  3518. Kokoro :
  3519. Which just barely saved it from taking a dive again
  3520.  
  3521. Katherine:
  3522. Well I still have my surpreme fries I saved
  3523.  
  3524. Katherine:
  3525. Soo wooo
  3526.  
  3527. Katherine:
  3528. "Here you go little guy. Uhh, not sure if you'll like this, but I really like it myself."
  3529.  
  3530. Marm:
  3531. "Yeah, basically. Lake effect, and all. Or that's what we think."
  3532.  
  3533. Rivi:
  3534. "You think there's a catch?"
  3535.  
  3536. Marm:
  3537. "I, uh...to be honest, I don't know... Don't tell nobody, but I think it's got to do with that thing the Commander's studying."
  3538.  
  3539. Teagan:
  3540. "Thing? What thing?"
  3541.  
  3542. Kokoro :
  3543. The Eevee shoves its face into the fries, and chomps them down in an instant! It might pay for that later
  3544.  
  3545. Marm:
  3546. "We dunno....You could ask the Commander. But for right now, it's just a 'thing'. We can't find anything else out about it..."
  3547.  
  3548. Sanya:
  3549. and thus no one ever thought to check if -I- had items
  3550.  
  3551. Katherine:
  3552. "Woow, you're a hungry guy aren't you? Well, let's get going to the Center!" She says nicely and I secretly hope that Thrice is nice enough to provide me with a Leaf Stone in the near future. (waiting)
  3553.  
  3554. Teagan:
  3555. If you were gonna be knocked out for longer, I'd probably have healed you
  3556.  
  3557. Teagan:
  3558. but the center's like right there
  3559.  
  3560. Rivi:
  3561. "Hmm... I don't really know who that is but perhaps we can talk to them when we get back..."
  3562.  
  3563. Marm:
  3564. "I just hope Alizar doesn't chew me out..."
  3565. Agidius is disconnected.
  3566. Agidius has connected.
  3567.  
  3568. Teagan:
  3569. "That man doesn't have any right to chew anyone out after today."
  3570.  
  3571. Rivi:
  3572. "At least he had the idea of posting about finding all the researchers..." "But not look you himself."
  3573.  
  3574. Marm:
  3575. "That won't stop him. He's got no respect for those younger than him! Even though I'm the third oldest..."
  3576.  
  3577. Rivi:
  3578. "So the commander isn't Alizar?"
  3579.  
  3580. Marm:
  3581. "H-huh? Of course not! The Commander's a much better head than Alizar. Him or Grant would be so much better..."
  3582.  
  3583. Marm:
  3584. "Even if the Commander's younger than Gaol and I are, he knows what he's doing."
  3585.  
  3586. Rivi:
  3587. Intuition 9 - Do I think Gaol is the comman-
  3588.  
  3589. Katherine:
  3590. 10
  3591.  
  3592. Rivi:
  3593. "So Gao-, oh."
  3594.  
  3595. Teagan:
  3596. "Wait, say that again? The commander's... is the commander a Pokemon? THAT would make sense..."
  3597.  
  3598. Rivi:
  3599. "M-my brain is starting to mix with the rain."
  3600.  
  3601. Marm:
  3602. "Uh...huh? No! You haven't seen him around? I'll take you to the lab...."
  3603.  
  3604. Rivi:
  3605. "P-please do..." Riv holds her head.
  3606.  
  3607. Marm:
  3608. "What kind of Pokemon could run a research team?"
  3609.  
  3610. Valant:
  3611. I take offense to that
  3612.  
  3613. Teagan:
  3614. "A smart one!"
  3615.  
  3616. Rivi:
  3617. "I-I can think totally think of one..." Valant 20XX
  3618.  
  3619. Marm:
  3620. "Uh...well, I guess some of Gaol's would be smart enough... But no! The Commander's human, full stop."
  3621.  
  3622. Rivi:
  3623. Rivi silently groans. This stuff is waaay too confusing for me.
  3624.  
  3625. Rivi:
  3626. Even my expression is confused.
  3627. TWILT is disconnected.
  3628.
