Week 6.

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! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend.]

Yeah. Once we get back to a warmer place, I don't care as much if she doesn't want to be near the campfire.

[He's trying his best to look out for her for now, though...]

What about you, Yuri? You and Roc keeping warm?

[And the sword and scythe bug...thing... He only really knows Roc.]

[You're so good to her, Eustace...]

I've taken to keeping Roc in the ball. She's not fond of the cold, and Rukeno really doesn't like it, so that just leaves this little guy.

[The sword does not seem to give a single fuck about the freezing temperatures. It's just sort of... watching, as usual.]
thunderwolf: (♦ mild interest)

[He really should be reprimanding her more for scaring the hell out of everyone around the campfire when she had her little freakout, but he's so hungry and exhausted from the travel he really can't be bothered right now.

He takes a sip of his soup, staring right back into the abyss--or rather, the sword's creepy eye.]


Wonder if a sword would even feel something like hot or cold.

[It's literally an object, after all...]

Good question. It hasn't expressed any sort of opinion on the weather, anyway.

[Not that he's expressed any opinion on anything, but it's fine. Probably. The sword continues staring.]
thunderwolf: (♦ shoulder glance)

[personal profile] thunderwolf 2018-07-19 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Why are you like this, creepy sentient sword.

...

Okay maybe there's a clear reason why, but that was rhetorical.]


I guess you'll find out eventually, if things keep up like they have. [He rests a hand on the listless Poochyena beside him.] Pup's the same way so far, though. Can't help but wonder what he could end up being like once he's not like this.

I'm hoping we'll get to find out soon. It's kinda strange that they hatched from eggs being this... listless.

["Lifeless" is almost what he said, but that's not exactly right... Also his sword's apparently a ghost?? So that's double weird.]
thunderwolf: (♦ sigh)

[personal profile] thunderwolf 2018-07-19 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. It still bothers me when I think about it. This condition is deeply rooted.

["Condition"...he's not sure what else to even call it.]

Even some of the wild Pokémon are starting to show signs of improvement... Whatever happened to this world definitely runs deep though, I agree.
