Week 9.

[azumods]

WEEK 9 The one thing Team Galactic seems to have done right in this world is perfecting teleportation technology. The device Maylene gave Rey will get all of you back to Eterna City easily; from there, it's a matter of very briefly stocking up on supplies on Sunday before you move westward, away from the massive, imposing form of Mount Coronet and into the deep shadows of Eterna Forest. During your brief stay in Eterna City, it's likely that you'll notice a few things have changed, as far as both the people and the Pokémon go; this holds true as you make your preparations and disappear into the forest on Monday. It's heartening, maybe, to know that once again your actions seem to have made a difference; meanwhile, the trip to Lake Verity looks to be a long one, but it isn't entirely insurmountable. The forest itself is large and dark, covered high overhead with a thick canopy of trees; the Pokémon here are plentiful, which likely cuts down on any inherent creepiness to the place - whether that's a good or a bad thing depends entirely on your point of view. Either way, it's going to be quite the adventure trying to make your way through; here's hoping that your luck continues to hold over the coming week... CURRENT LOCATION: ETERNA FOREST POKEMON AVAILABLE: PLAINS/FOREST SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week nine 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!]

[So.

Morag has a cake.

Jurgen the Gible keeps trying to dig his claws into it, so she's holding it up over her head.]

I don't suppose... anyone can tell me what's in this? It was in that mansion, but... it looks oddly fresh.

[niceoppai]

I still think it's kinda creepy.

[radiantflame]

It is indeed unsettling, that is why I intend to get to the bottom of this.

[niceoppai]

Too bad we don't have, like, a lab we can send it in to for testing.

[radiantflame]

Surely between all of us we could suss out something.

[niceoppai]

I call not it for tasting it.

[ventulus]

I can try it. It's just cake, right?

[ If it's gone bad, wouldn't it just taste bad immediately? He doesn't get the fuss at all.

Also more importantly, cake time!!! ]

[perfectselfie]

...are you sure it's safe to eat, if it was in there?

[radiantflame]

I don't believe it safe for consumption, but I am also a bit lacking in culinary skills.

[perfectselfie]

I don't think you should risk it.

[Aya is going to sniff around.]

It doesn't smell like it's gone bad, but that doesn't mean it's going to taste good.

[radiantflame]

I have no intention of letting anyone here- [Pointed look at Gible] -taste it until I am sure it's not poisoned or otherwise bad.

[perfectselfie]

Trying to think of how to do it other than having someone actually taste it...

[...yeah, Aya is drawing a blank.]

I guess this little guy wouldn’t be after it if it wasn’t good? Unless he’s trying to get it despite that...

[discutio]

I can't smell anything suspicious, for what it's worth.

...But personally, I'd not eat it if it was in there for however long.

[radiantflame]

[Oh, right.]

Ah, would you like me to describe what it looks like?

[discutio]

May as well, though appearances can often be deceiving when it comes to culinary matters.

[radiantflame]

It's rather plain in appearance. There's no decorations, and no filling. I would say it's perhaps a red velvet cake, but it's more purple in color.

[redbellion]

I wouldn't trust it, even if it looks fresh.

[radiantflame]

It seems very suspect, but after we didn't encounter anything bad there, per se...

[redbellion]

Yeah, but you still don't know where it's been.

[ germs, etc. ]

If you want to try it that badly, be my guest.

[eudaimonikos]

Make Kiryu eat it.

[radiantflame]

[Not even looking in his direction.]] Any other suggestions? Anyone?

[eudaimonikos]

[that's fine he doesn't require your approval]

Kiryu, you eat mystery food, eat the cake!

[radiantflame]

[SIGH]

[takestheblame]

I knew where the egg came from. I don't know where that cake came from, so no.

[Nope, 'it came from the old manor' isn't a valid answer to him, hah! Besides, Kiryu, that egg appeared out of the ether right in front of you, don't pretend you know how that happened!]

[eudaimonikos]

It came from the ghosts.

[Obviously.]
