TEST 8.

[azumods]

FLOW. The feeling of pressure in here is immense. It's stronger than it was with Darkrai, something you can feel down to your core, something that you couldn't shake off even if you tried; there's nothing to do but power through it. Saturn, for his part, either isn't feeling it at all or is incapable of reacting in any sort of appropriate way even if he could; he simply continues to regard you from across the room, his words hanging heavy in the room. It's a far cry from his behavior during the first month you were here; he was civil then, willing to do you favors in exchange for the chance to talk to you. It's plain that he will be doing no such thing today; it may be difficult to know where to start, really. Especially when your Pokémon don't seem to be doing well - whatever's happening here, they seem reluctant, even unwilling, to fight anything in this room. Perhaps it's not surprising; the energy in the room is likely familiar to them, and it's the sort associated with someone deciding to take their spirit away last time it was angered. Whatever the reason, you're on your own for now; whatever happens is your choice, and yours alone.

Comments

[azumods]

Theoretically enough power used against them should break them. I'd suggest not missing and hitting Dialga, simply because we don't want it angry with you right out of the gate.

[anythingforyou]

Believe me, I'm quite certain we would like to avoid that as well.

[Like, holy shit. Okay, so that leaves Arion out of this because we don't want him to miss, but...]

I take it this would be something more equipped for our partners, then--perhaps to have them focus attacks on the chains, and see if that's enough power to destroy them?

[azumods]

As much as I'm sure you'd enjoy venting by beating them with rods or something, that's likely for the best.

[He...sounds amused but it isn't pointed, don't worry.]

[anythingforyou]

[saturn what the fuck, you aren't allowed to @ her, she looks taken aback for all of a second before she just--]

...Kindly don't make a habit of that.

[...she looks both somewhat annoyed and almost halfway amused, fuck you Saturn. Anyway, Camilla is going to look to the group.]

Are we in favor of perhaps getting to work on these, everyone...?

[discutio]

I'm prepared if Saturn is.

[takestheblame]

We have to give that a try.

[ventulus]

[ ... ]

Mm, let's go for it.

[eudaimonikos]

What are we thinking? Purely physical damage, or could things like fire help?

[discutio]

Fire's too inaccurate. We shouldn't risk striking Dialga.

[eudaimonikos]

They can actually direct it pretty well.

[But like, he's not gonna argue with you.]

Who can hit it best, then? I don't know that we should have a ton of Pokemon trying at once, same problem. Maybe just a few.

[discutio]

Out of mine, Hemera and Brennaere have seemed the most accurate in direct attacks; I'm not sure they've the physical strength, but a simple bladed edge may be worth trying.

[eudaimonikos]

Yeah, yeah. I'm sure we have the time for a few attempts.

[was that

was that a time joke]

[anythingforyou]

That is a good question...perhaps we could try both out? I think physical attacks may have a far better chance, but it never hurts to try.

[Ignis does have a point though, so.]

[takestheblame]

There's an attack called Fire Punch. That should mix the strengths of both physical damage and fire.

[Someone in here must know Fire Punch, right?]

[greydients]

Golett knows Mega Punch and Dynamic Punch, if that helps.

[...honestly her plan is just 'let Big Golett punch the shit out of it']

[enjoymyatelier]

I'm willing to give it a go, yes.

[greydients]

[Rey's Golurk is still....go-lurking at the back, but let it do a little bicep curl as its trainer nods solemnly.]

Let's shatter them.

[divinedescendant]

Duma should be able to assist—I know he is a wild thing, but his aim is true.

Saturn, you should come stand with us while this is done, lest some attack stray off course.

[also the less he is the first thing in front of dialga when the time pony gets its senses back, the better]

[azumods]

[...do...you mind if he stays in your general vicinity for this, Emmeryn, like

...you have never seen a person look so fucking awkward in your life but look do you mind he doesn't want to make a thing out of this]

[discutio]

[ONE OF US ONE OF US]

[anythingforyou]

[ignis she swears to god if we're explicitly adopting this one she'll

...

she'll question it and suck it up on orders, she guesses]

[divinedescendant]

[oh my god... buddy...pal...friendo........... no she does not mind. she the opposite of minds. she even gently sets a hand on his shoulder and gives it a little squeeze.]

[semistableman]

[Much better.]

[hyruglyphics]

I am in agreement.

[ Miphanus is too, given it started floating. ]

[radiantflame]

[Nod nod]
