Week 3.

[azumods]

WEEK 3 The past weekend has given people a lot to take in, and a lot to think about. You're permitted to stay at the resort all day on Sunday, should you so choose; relax and replenish yourselves with regards to sleep at least, seeing as it's much more comfortable than the routes or sleeping on the floor of the Pokémon Center. Commander Saturn is gone as of last night, and no one seems to be coming after you - though there is likely something you'll be aware of by the end of the day... Whatever happens, it's evident that you'll have to leave this place eventually, and Monday should find everyone back on Route 213. It's been repeatedly recommended to move toward Pastoria City; whether you believe the source of said urging to be trustworthy or not, it's still a good idea to move in that direction - a city means supplies, after all, a place to restock and spend a few days. Everyone should be able to find Pastoria City by Tuesday afternoon; it's another unfamiliar place, with various things to see and look at over the course of the next few days. It's far smaller than Veilstone, but it borders up to the ocean by way of a small jetty on the southeastern side of town with a few boats moored to it. Otherwise, it's surrounded by forest, and the main path winds its way lazily through town, weaving between personal residences and a few places of business. Of course, it's still not nearly as lively as it should be; the inhabitants here all seem as devoid of spirit as everywhere else; fortunately, a select few of your companions do seem to be perking up a bit - perhaps that's a good sign, in the end. CURRENT LOCATION: PASTORIA CITY POKEMON AVAILABLE: IN CITIES / NEAR WATER SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week three 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 this weekend!]

[What is he... Oh right, the meeting during the first week met. That's kind of embarrassing now that she thinks about it. Eyes narrowing, the rest of her face scrunches up like it doesn't know what expression to make.]

I—It was my turn, is all. We all have to pull our weight around here, so it's only natural that if I cook a meal for twenty-some people, I see to it that every one of them eats their share.

[On that note: the lunchbox he was eyeing gets lightly shoved at his chest proper.]

So here. Good as it is, stop admiring my handiwork and take it already.

[hesychast]

Yes of course, thank you. [ Unlike Rin he doesn't seem off-put any, and he's way too comfortable in this situation than any priest should be. As instructed he takes the lunchbox and then steps aside, inviting her in with a wave of his arm. ]

Would you like to join me? I imagine you have already eaten, but we haven't much had the time to talk lately.

[heritrix]

I suppose we haven't.

[Part of that is on her. Rin hasn't sought his company out—but she doesn't refuse it now either.]

I do still need to feed Abbey, though, and she's a messy eater. Are you fine with that in your room?

[hesychast]

I don't mind—I'm familiar with rambunctiuos partners, you could say. 

[ With that settled, he closes the door once Rin enters. There's nothing really interesting to note in his room, with the exception of an empty glass vial placed on the desk next to a pokeball. On the bed is his Litleo, who blinks at Rin, seemingly alert. ]

It's strange...for all the "peace" this world has, I was more at ease having tea with the other Red Masters than I am currently. [ He pauses in his unwrapping of the lunchbox to smile apologetically. ]   That has nothing to do with present company, but I hope that goes without saying. 

[heritrix]

I'm not sure why I'd be an exception, just for being from a similar world to yours.

[Despite her words, she doesn't seem to take any offense though. She's just blunt as usual as she glances about the room before finding a place to sit.

His Litleo receives a small smile as she reaches for one of the two pokeballs at her belt, releasing Abbey into the room. The Gligar floats for a moment, taking in its new surroundings with disinterest. Then it glides down to the footstool Rin has picked to sit upon, settling in on her leg.]

If anything, back home it would be the opposite, since mages are always most suspicious of other mages. But if you're an overseer of the Church, I suppose you'd be used to such dealings.

[Taking out a container full of the special food the resort staff prepared for her pokemon, she opens it and holds it up for Abbey to eat from. Shirou will find two more containers similar to it in his own lunchbox, presumably for his partners.]
