Week 7.

[azumods]

WEEK 7 After a week of nothing but snow, it's likely that the city is a welcome sight. The city proper is likewise blanketed in snow, but it's far shallower here, easily walked through; it's soft and powdery and unlikely to cause you to slip, the kind of snow small children and Pokémon might enjoy playing in if they're the sort to enjoy that kind of thing. And if they were capable of enjoying much, in the case of the children. That said, the people here are still in the mildly improved state you witnessed in Eterna; it isn't much, but it is improvement, and the world around you continues to change in other, smaller ways as well, so it isn't all for naught. The wild Pokémon here, however, seem to be experiencing something a little...different from what you've been seeing so far - specifically, the Shellos here seem a little hostile toward one another. Snowpoint City is separate from and parallel to the giant mountain you passed last week, and it's populated by both the blue and pink varieties; the different sorts...don't seem to like each other much. It isn't all-out warfare or anything, but there are definitely skirmishes and mounting tensions happening in slug culture here. Mediate if you choose, or just enjoy your time in the city. You've earned it, after last week. CURRENT LOCATION: SNOWPOINT CITY POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week seven 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!]

...Please let him be dressed like some shitty mall goth.

[niceoppai]

Is that different from a regular goth?

[i mean the aesthetic in crs is largely the 1970s but half the marciano sisters are gothlolis so i don't even know]

[bloodspent]

...So you know how a lot of the proper goths have the expensive elaborate outfits and the hairfalls and the...god, I don't even know what they call those boots but they have way too many fastenings on them, laces or buckles or whatever?

It's kind of like that aesthetic, only obviously mass-produced with way more latex and fake leather, it's all kind of trashy, and you could probably get most of it at a store in the mall for thirty bucks. Mall goth.

[snickers] Okay, now that you said that, I kind of hope it's true. He sounds like that pretentious kind of guy who thinks he looks great.

[bloodspent]

Probably has some sort of shitty dyed hair, quotes all these philosophers out of context, the whole nine yards.

[niceoppai]

I gotta wonder what kind of guy would want to do all this in the first place.

[bloodspent]

Yeah, I've been wondering that too. Shitty mall goth comments aside, I've been assuming he's a scientist or something, but that's because it's usually scientists fucking things up where I'm from. Sometimes politicians, but usually scientists.

[niceoppai]

Makes as much sense as anything, but isn't it generally scientists working for corrupt politicians or the mob or something?

[bloodspent]

Sometimes? Not all the time, though, sometimes they're just on their own, being shitheads with the politicians' money.

[niceoppai]

I guess so. Haven't really dealt with that one, but it could happen. Sounds like you've seen a lot of that stuff.
