Week 3.

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!]

[Aren't grandmothers supposed to be warm and welcoming? Or stern and overbearing? Not...blank. It's still unnerving.]

Uh...over here?

[He shuffles over, apologizing to the grandmother as he passes by the kitchen. Hopefully he's not tripping over Monkey as he goes.]
heritrix: (pop)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-02 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Grandma... She's doing her best.]

Just follow the sound of my voice!

[Into the room Rin goes, voice echoing slightly.]

And ignore the mess. I'll have it cleaned up in a jiffy, so go ahead and make yourself comfortable.

[She means her things, so mainly her pack and several thick books. The bedsheets are a mess as she never bothered to make them, but they haven't been in this town that long, so the rest of the room is fairly clean.

When Sena comes in, Rin's just stuffing a few clothes back into her bag, and seemingly at a loss when she realizes she's missing a sock. Monkey (who makes cure to come in behind Sena, since he's so small) remains in the doorway when he arrives, watching his trainer work with some confusion.]

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-07-02 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
Uh...this is not that much of a mess...

[Seriously. He's pretty sure his room is messier than this. Considering he's an average high school student...that's probably true.

Sena carefully toes his way in, blinking when he feels a sock under his foot.]
Um...is this yours?
heritrix: (all good)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-02 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
Only because I haven't been here for very long. Honestly, this change of plans probably works in my benefit.

[She'd been checking the closet when she hears Sena again, and turns her head around.]

Aha! There it is! Thank you; I was just looking for that.

[Circling around the bed, she takes it back from him and stuffs that into her bag too before moving to take the books.]

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-07-02 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
You're welcome...

[So she's been staying here. But then...]

Um...why are you packing up, though?

[Sena. Sena, honey. Isn't it obvious?]
heritrix: (ho hum)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-02 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Sena...]

Because this is your room now, of course. I know you're sick, but try to keep up.
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=divisionsix =livejournal.com> (HIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-07-02 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
My...h-huh?!

[Seriously?!]

Wait, you don't need to do that! What about you?
heritrix: (everything belongs to me)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-02 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Too late! If you had complaints, you should have spoken up when we got here. I've already made the arrangements, so if you don't stay now it will reflect badly on me.

I haven't decided what I'll do yet; I'll either pitch a tent in the backyard or take your place at the Pokemon Center, but either way, it'll be fine.

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-07-02 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
W-well... [He should have picked up on this sooner! Man.]

But...you worked for this place, so...it doesn't feel right...
heritrix: (awkward turtle)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-02 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
[Mrrrr.]

It's in my own self-interest.

[Folding her arms, she tosses her hair.] We have to leave this town eventually, and share our food and sleeping areas. If you're not on the way to recovery by then, we could get sick too, and then traveling would be miserable.

Knowing that, this is a good solution. You'll get better faster if you're sleeping in a warm bed, and not on the cold floor.

[Rin, just admit you're worried about him, gosh.]
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (sorry!)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-07-02 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Er...that's true, too...

[You know, Rin, if you wanted to be worried about him, you don't need to worry about smothering him. He's already well used to Mamori doing that. (For a little too long.)]

S...sorry about this...I'll try and get better quickly...

[Sena that's not how recovering from a cold works.]
heritrix: (London)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-02 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Ehhhh, she's never been the smothering type, it's more like if it looks like she cares, people will start thinking she's a good person or something. It would be terrible!]

I'll hold you to that. [She grins.] I already have soup on the stove, and I can make some tea. Do you need anything else?
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (that's...um...)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-07-02 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh no. That's the worst thing that could happen. How horrible.]

Oh... [All that? Really?]

The soup is fine...you've already done more than enough, I think...
heritrix: (say what?)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-02 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Really? Compared to one guy I know, this sort of feels like the minimum...

[She's not really used to looking out for people. Until recently, the only person she ever had to worry about was herself.]
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (a little gentle smile)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-07-03 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
If that person is anything like someone I know, they might be going over the top...

[Really over the top. He loves big sis Mamori, but...she really did too much...]

It's enough. Really!
heritrix: (fufufufu)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-03 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
—I can't argue with that logic at all, actually! [She laughs once to herself, hand over her heart.] It describes the guy I'm thinking of to a tee. No matter the situation, he's always overdoing it.

[She misses him. A lot.]

Okay, then. I won't take it easy on you. [Shaking her head, she waves a hand.] I'll bring you a cup of soup, but after that you're on your own. You better rest up.
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=dulciloquy =livejournal.com> (Default)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-07-03 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, good. She understands. Still, Sena is grateful, so he bows quickly to her before smiling.]

Thanks...Really, I mean it.
heritrix: (backdrop)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-07-03 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Geez... I can't handle you when you're this earnest.

[She looks a little flustered by his repeated gratitude, a light pink dusting her cheeks and the tip of her ears.]


I-It's just a one time thing, but you're welcome.

[Rin tosses her backpack over her shoulder and opens the door.]

Feel better soon, Kobyakawa-kun.

[And with a little wave, she and Monkey will duck out the door. Grumbling as she was, though, just before she left Rin was definitely smiling.]
