Week 2.
WEEK 2. The new week begins with new surroundings. The city you've been growing accustomed to over the past week is now well behind you as you set out on your journey proper; the terrain still seems rocky and steep here as you move downhill and to the south, dotted here and there with small ponds to the east and rocky outcroppings that you can climb on to the west. There are also large expanses of tall grass here, and the entire route is flanked with tall trees leading off into the forest a short ways. You're more than welcome to explore; just don't stray too far from the group - you wouldn't want to be left behind out here, for any reason. Wild PokƩmon are abundant here, as anyone venturing into the tall grass will discover; they aren't inclined to attack you, however, simply watching with dull, dead eyes as you stumble through the area they've come to call home. The trip is difficult, and it's a lot of walking, but it's not unmanageable; fortunately enough, the route you're on should lead you directly to Valor Lakefront, assuming there are no complications along the way. From Thursday and beyond, the route takes a sharp turn west; in front of you lies what's clearly the ocean, large rocks jutting out just offshore tempering the waves. It's safe to go in the water if you so choose - assuming you can swim, that is - and the forested terrain has given way to a large beach with patches of tall grass here and there. Interestingly, there's a house located on the beach; whether it's inhabited or not is difficult to tell. Of course, exploring slightly north of the beach will reveal a path. Maybe it leads somewhere important... POKEMON AVAILABLE: NEAR WATER SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week two 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. Don't forget that a write-up is due next weekend!] |

It's looking clear; I thought it might be a good idea to get a better look at our surroundings. Just in case something undesirable followed along.
[...and half because she wanted to.]
It's tempting to go higher...this has nothing on the view from the back of my dear Mariza, but I've always preferred higher ground.
no subject
[He'll approach the tree and then climb up to join her on a nearby branch. He's pretty quick about it, so you won't have to wait long.]
There we go, that's better. Easier to talk like this, yeah?
...Who's Mariza?
no subject
[That does make matters much easier, honestly. Camilla smiles and rests a bit, giving him a nod of her head at the first portion.]
Marzia is my wyvern; she's been my partner for as long as I can remember. She and I have fought together for so long...it makes me miss her, and being able to take to the skies.
no subject
[It does raise the question of what'll happen to their Pokémon, but he's been trying not to think about that.]
I've gotten pretty used to flying too, but that's because Ba'ul takes us wherever we need to go. He's an Entelexeia, but when we first met him we thought he was a dragon.
no subject
[That's admittedly beside the point, but. You know.]
Ah, yes, the one you stated that...evolved, correct? You understand, then; it's always convenient to have them nearby, but most importantly, the view is most wonderful from atop them.
[she's assuming he Gets It anyway]
no subject
[He says, with a completely straight face.
...No, he is not fucking with you.]
no subject
As in on his back, or does he simply pick your ship up in his arms...?
[But today is not that day. What the fuck is your world even.]
no subject
[HE IS STILL NOT FUCKING WITH YOU.]
no subject
How did you manage that much? That sounds...utterly impossible, if I may be quite forthcoming...
[You're punking her. You're absolutely punking her at this point.]
no subject
[He means back home, but if your reaction is any indication, it'd be hilarious to tell everyone else here too?? This is great.]
no subject
Why, if I didn't know any better, I would think it sounds like you'd enjoy the idea of confusing everyone here with your world's 'quirks'.
[Like. On one hand, you are a little shit? But on the other hand, she's actually kind of amused? Goddammit.]
no subject
Guilty as charged. You'll have to arrest me now, otherwise I'll never stop.
[He's having a blast, thanks!!]
no subject
[She is pretty obviously joking around when she says that, though. But she doesn't state it quite yet, because frankly, this is fun.]
no subject
Why, are you really thinking of turning me in, Your Highness? I'm shocked.
[FAKE GASP]
no subject
[said with the utmost mock seriousness. you're in trouble now, mister!!]
no subject
no subject
You'd put yourself at my mercy so easily...? Why, are you hoping for a lighter sentence? I'd choose my answer carefully, if I were you; I could think of many punishments for such horrid crimes...
[DON'T TEMPT HER--]
no subject
You really think I'd attempt to get a lighter sentence from you? I'm hurt. I would never do something like that!
no subject
[hmhmhm]

[...]
Provided you don't menace the people via that method, of course. Could I trust you, or will I have to take your fingers as well...?
no subject
[He'll laugh after a moment and drop the act.]
You know, I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from you, but this is fun. You're pretty entertaining, Camilla.
no subject
Why, I simply am no less than myself. I must admit, I too find this rapport rather entertaining, Yuri; you know how to encourage mirth out of a situation.
no subject
[He can certainly understand why someone would be in this situation, but he's never been fond of letting anything get him down for too long.]
