Week 19.

[azumods]

WEEK 19 Despite the setback early Sunday morning, the physical trip to Solaceon Town is an easy one; it isn't a large distance from Hearthome City, though the town itself is so small it's a little blink-and-you'll-miss it. It's nice and temperate, though, with the ruins off to the east of the city and the houses of the townspeople nestled among the trees and fields; it's somewhat similar to Floaroma Town in feeling, and that's only amplified by the flowers near the daycare. The townspeople don't seem to know how they got there; they simply bloomed one day, bright patches of bright pink Gracideas along the fence. It's a reminder, perhaps, that you aren't alone, and your work isn't in vain. It seems the world is slowly starting to get back on its feet, too; it's a slow process, but there are changes you can see here and there, however slight. You have a lot of work ahead of you, but there's a lot that's behind you now, too; maybe it's just a matter of continuing to try. CURRENT LOCATION: SOLACEON TOWN POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week nineteen 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.]

No, I know. It's not the same thing, of course, but...I really hate that it's happening again.

[It's scary and stressful, losing people he's considered friends in ways he can't do anything about. He can only imagine how it is for it to be someone you've always known - if it had been Janet or Eleanor.]

I wasn't being sarcastic. Counting you all makes me feel better.

[discutio]

I believe you. It's...not always a simple task for me to keep track of everyone, so I'm grateful someone does.

[eudaimonikos]

You do a pretty good job. Seems like you always know who's there before they say anything. Guess it's probably harder when half of us are asleep, though...?

[discutio]

I've learned the sound of most of your footsteps. Bucky's changed since his balance shifted with the other arm, but I've had time to get a fair grasp on who's approaching if I hear them walk for a handful of steps.

So yes, that does come with its share of limits.

[eudaimonikos]

Oh, neat. I never thought that human senses were so versatile.

Have you felt Bucky's arm? That thing's got some great dexterity. Really impressive.

[discutio]

Ordinarily, one's senses aren't quite so accurate. However in some cases, it's been proven that loss of one sense leaves the others to improve in a way of picking up the slack, in a sense. I found my sense of hearing in particular improved drastically not very long after I lost my sight.

[he's just daredevil i don't know]

I haven't, but he did describe some of it to me. Our world does have prosthetics, but they're rarely made in the capacity Bucky's sounds like it was.

[eudaimonikos]

I haven't noticed any changes since I got here, and quit seeing all the things I normally do. But that's probably different.

[He doesn't consider it a superpower, just a thing his entire species does, but it's definitely unrelated to anything about his human body.]

Same. Apparently it has even more functions that are just broken right now.
