Week 5.

[azumods]

WEEK 5 As of morning the next day, it seems the rain has stopped; with Azelf awakened and your newly-hatched companions by your side, it's possible that you're feeling a new sense of resolve regarding what needs to be done - and, perhaps more importantly, your ability to accomplish it. The device Maylene gave you certainly does seem to work; activating it will reveal a dark portal crackling with energy, shades of pink and purple swirling brightly around the outer edges, and those of you that walk through it will find yourselves quite suddenly standing somewhere else - there's grass beneath your feet and an unfamiliar city to the west, and the place you're standing seems raised up in some way; turning around once the portal has closed behind the last of you will reveal a massive bronze statue depicting a Pokémon of some sort, though what it is seems to be a little difficult to tell... The trip to Eterna City may leave you feeling a little dizzy and disoriented, and for a few uncomfortable moments you're likely very, very aware of your organs, but the effects will pass after a few moments and you'll soon feel right as rain. Of course, it'll likely become obvious very quickly that you aren't alone near that statue... Either way, it's a long journey up to Snowpoint City; you might want to take some time to make sure that you're prepared before you set off. It really does seem as though finding Azelf at Lake Valor has done the world some good, though, along with your combined effects on the world already; hopefully the Guardian at Lake Acuity in the north will be just as helpful... CURRENT LOCATION: ETERNA CITY POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week five 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!]

Now, hit low with a Wing Attack!

[And Huginn proceeds to try and slam her wing right into Haar's stomach, because... we're going hard I guess??]

[anythingforyou]

[Yeeep, that connects, and ow--Haar actually gets knocked back a bit by that one, though he doesn't flinch this time. Nor does he fall; he's a sturdy boy, if slow.]

Don't take that one lying down, darling! Slam!

[THAT SURE IS A BIG BOY COMING RIGHT AT HUGINN WITH A DECENTLY HEAVY ATTACK, we are clearly losing chill here today.]

[enjoymyatelier]

[OH.... well, birds tend to be fragile, granted, but even though that throws Huginn back a bit, she does manage to right herself a bit and fly up out of immediate reach.]

Right. Try and hit him somewhere you can't be hit quite as easily.

[...

WELL OKAY TIME TO TRY AND SWOOP AROUND TO WING ATTACK THE BACK OF HAAR'S HEAD?]

[anythingforyou]

[HUGINN, THAT'S MEAN.

...By which that means yes, ow, the back of Haar's head is currently taking a whacking and he moves to crouch on the ground and protect his head after, crying out--]

Haar, are you okay to continue?

[A...noise of some kind at least means it's a maybe? Well, Camilla shouts an order out anyway--]

Try to shoot her down with Water Gun!

[enjoymyatelier]

[well, you know, dark types. They Like That Shit. but anyhow, there's no particular maneuvering she can do to avoid that, but...]

Try and avoid it with Pursuit, perhaps.

[MAYBE SHE CAN WHIRL AROUND no actually she gets a face full of Water Gun, but she does try and power through...]

[anythingforyou]

[Well, that seems to have done some good--she'll actually be able to get a good hit on Haar once he's finished blasting out water, honestly, though he's definitely looking a little dizzy, but he can still...fight...!

...Or, well, the second Camilla sees his present state is when she decides that he's had enough for the time being, and he'll toddle back to Camilla's side.]

Should we keep going until our Pokemon are out, or will that suffice...? It would seem that we are quite evenly matched--and have much to learn.

[enjoymyatelier]

Yes, that's probably it-

[Huginn caws... almost indignantly?]

...Huginn? Huginn, no. We're done here. It was intended to be sparring.

[anythingforyou]

[...Okay, that gets a bit of a huff.]

I do hope you're not intending to try to finish the poor dear off. I'll have you know that I'd find that exceedingly rude.

[...Arion is kind of peaking out, though, looking at Huginn expectantly.

You wanna fite]

[enjoymyatelier]

Yes, that would be rude. Come, now, let's end this.

[...Huginn is actually looking over to Arion now, yeah...]
