Week 7.

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

That's true.

[ He begins looking at some potions too, even going to pick one up as he squints at it. ]

If we're lucky, though, it'll be easier than we could've ever imagined...
niceoppai: Staring in awe. (gonna dance on the pole)

[personal profile] niceoppai 2018-07-17 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
How do you figure? Like, we over-prepare?
ventulus: (50)

[personal profile] ventulus 2018-07-17 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. That's totally possible, right?

[ Though he's not phrasing it as a bad thing at all.

...Snacks are totally useful, right. They definitely are, so he's grabbing some. ]
niceoppai: Disappointed. (something tells me this ain't coffee)

[personal profile] niceoppai 2018-07-17 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's true! We haven't actually won any major battles at all, though, just kinda talked ourselves out of everything, and that last time, we... kinda failed at that for a while.
ventulus: (36)

[personal profile] ventulus 2018-07-17 01:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess we haven't, if we're thinking of it like that.

[ ... ]

But I kind of feel like those were big battles too. Except without any physical fighting ...mostly. There kinda was the part where Kayneth and Zelda took on Maylene and that helped out.

[ He doesn't doubt that there will be more battles that will crop along, though. Physical or not. ]</small
niceoppai: Contemplative. (knowledge is power)

[personal profile] niceoppai 2018-07-17 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
If we stretch the definition, yeah. But I dunno if we'll be able to talk ourselves out of stuff forever. Sure wish we could, though.
ventulus: (20)

[personal profile] ventulus 2018-07-17 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah...probably not. Some of these people seem like they really mean business and have even implied when stuff heats up they're going to come at us with everything they have.

[ And he doesn't doubt that at all. ]
niceoppai: Curious question. (how good i am at being the best)

[personal profile] niceoppai 2018-07-17 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
So all we gotta do is train, huh?
ventulus: (89)

[personal profile] ventulus 2018-07-18 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
[ He places a hand against his chest with a smile. ]

Yeah, but...it's not only just training. I think deepening our bonds with each other -- our friends and our partners -- will help a lot too.
niceoppai: Sitting down. (as far as anybody knows it's clean)

[personal profile] niceoppai 2018-07-18 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, 'cause it's all about friendship, right? Sounds nice put that way.
ventulus: (41)

[personal profile] ventulus 2018-07-18 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
It is, and honestly...just look around us. It still wasn't that long ago when we were just starting out and things hadn't changed at all. But now, you can already tell that just by us talking and interacting with others has made a difference, and helped change things.

[ Ventus is really big on friendship and bonds, because of course he is.

Anyway, he's grabbed some stuff, but he thinks he's just about got everything he needs, so he'll be trying not to look at more things so he won't overspend. ]
niceoppai: Worried aside glance. (i'm just gonna take this heart)

[personal profile] niceoppai 2018-07-18 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, no kidding! Though I'm not sure these guys would like lemonade. Maybe Jake has the right idea with the hot drinks.
ventulus: (16)

[personal profile] ventulus 2018-07-21 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Hot drinks? Like hot chocolate?

[ Now Ventus wants some hot chocolate! ]
niceoppai: Knowing grin. (wowity wowity wow)

[personal profile] niceoppai 2018-07-21 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
That'd be a good idea! Not sure anywhere has the ingredients here, but they must, it's freezing here.
