Week 6.

[azumods]

WEEK 6 One thing is going to be made abundantly clear this week: the routes you're traveling are cold. Through Monday night, you'll likely find it best to skirt around the foot of that massive mountain that lies immediately to the east of Eterna City; it looks treacherous, and while some of you may be up to the trip, it's probably best to not waste your energy before you get anywhere near Lake Acuity. The journey is going to be a long one before you get there, but the first few days will see you making good time, actually. Between that and the noticeable changes to the world, maybe it won't be so bad...? ...Or not. Tuesday morning and beyond is where the hell sets in for those of you that aren't used to or don't like the cold. The routes are full of perpetual snowfall; it isn't heavy, given the time of year, but the fact of the matter is that it's still coming down, and the snow is piled up directly on the route clear up to the average person's waist. It makes traveling slow going, though if you have a fire-type it might be feasible to clear a bit more of a path - be careful with that, though, because all the runoff has to go somewhere, and it's possible that you'll just make the path icy in the end. Either way, it's cold, due to the snowfall you're going to be wet, and traveling is going to be very, very slow; here's hoping whatever's at that lake is worth it, in the end. ...Wherever the lake may actually happen to lie; no matter where you look on the way to Snowpoint City, you won't find an entrance to it... CURRENT LOCATION: ROUTE 216/217 POKEMON AVAILABLE: MOUNTAINS/ELEVATED AREAS / SNOWY TERRAIN SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week six of Azume; feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters!

Definitely. Get all the rest you need when you can. We're probably not too far from the next city, right...?

[please let us escape this frozen hell...]

[bloodspent]

...We shouldn't be. Maybe another couple of days.

[fatalstrikes]

It'll be a pain, but another couple of days is doable. We'll be fine.

[...probably. If someone dies on the way there it is totally not his fault (for once).]

[bloodspent]

...Yeah.

[He does not sound convinced, but he'll manage.]

[fatalstrikes]

Let me know if I can help you with anything, yeah? You can hold onto those blankets for now, you probably need 'em more than I do.

[bloodspent]

You don't have to worry about me too much. Besides, I'm pretty sure these guys have enough of themselves back to not let me die.

[...At least, two of them do. The other lizard and the catweasel probably won't care.]

[fatalstrikes]

Oh yeah, I'm sure your partners won't let anything happen to you. It's kinda nice to have them around, yeah?

[bloodspent]

Yeah, it is. I didn't think I'd get used to it at the start, but...

[But here we are.]

[fatalstrikes]

You definitely seem really fond of 'em.

[It's cute...!!]

[bloodspent]

Everyone really likes pointing that out.

[...He's trying to sound annoyed. He is sick as balls and just sounds kind of pathetic, honestly.]

[fatalstrikes]

[He's trying so hard to keep a straight face. It's so difficult.]

Can't say I'm surprised. You do carry this little guy around all the time, after all.

[bloodspent]

It's not that surprising...

[you're an asshole.]

[fatalstrikes]

It's pretty cute, honestly.

[what were you expecting...]

[bloodspent]

Oh my god.

[He gives up.]

[fatalstrikes]

I'm glad you're having fun.

[sorry, jake......]
