Week 17.

[azumods]

WEEK 17 There are disturbances in Veilstone. Although perhaps saying that there are disturbances in Veilstone is understating it; the first thing that's going to be immediately noticeable is the fact that there are few to no people outside of their residences. They're still there, they're definitely present in town, and it doesn't look like Team Galactic has done any mass recruitment recently; at the same time, they don't seem inclined to leave their homes unless their task is absolutely necessary. The reasons why will soon become apparent, the longer you remain in the city; soft bursts of force will ripple across the city from time to time, and every time they do something shifts. The edges of buildings will suddenly decay, aging before your eyes into something that seems to have been abandoned for years; sometimes parts of the streets will vanish as you walk, turning into something hard and rocky, seemingly still untouched by human intervention. Occasionally the leaves will turn bright colors and drop off of the trees, only to regrow anew again almost immediately. Perhaps most tellingly is the fact that your concept of the passage of time is no longer entirely halted - you're aware that time is certainly passing, though it's difficult to say in what direction. It's obvious now more than ever that time exists in a sort of fourth dimension, coming at the world from a different angle entirely to the more planar space that you're still not certain you're perceiving correctly; throughout all of this, the Team Galactic base remains sealed. Whatever it is you're going to do about this, you might want to formulate a plan of some sort this week. CURRENT LOCATION: VEILSTONE CITY POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY [OOC: Welcome to week seventeen of Azume; feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend.]

I mean, there's the Pokémon.

[So there's that.]

They're generally more capable of shit than we are, if it comes down to a fight. I just don't like the idea of sending 'em in unless I know they want to.

...I'm of the same opinion. And I can't say I'm comfortable letting Hemera and the others fight a presumably losing battle against a god on my behalf.

I'm willing to leave that last part up to them. I can respect dying for something you want and think is worth it; I'm not okay with dying for someone else's orders. I spent enough time nearly doing that myself, I'm not going to shove that on them.
