Week 11.

[azumods]

WEEK 11 The meeting with Mars could have gone infinitely worse. It's difficult to say that it went well, admittedly, but at least it didn't go as poorly as it could have; either way, her departure leaves you free to look around the Valley Windworks, and it shouldn't take you long at all to find something interesting on the floor. It's bright yellow and glowing, set into the ground like any other normal part of the floor otherwise; stepping on it will cause the world to spin briefly in your field of vision, and when it straightens itself out again, you find yourself standing in the corner of the lobby of a large building you've never seen before. Welcome to the Jubilife TV station. The place seems staffed with Galactic grunts, but they leave you alone outside of just watching you in that dead-eyed, vaguely unnerving way they have of watching everything; they'll let you leave without a fuss at any rate, and it's probably for the best that you get yourself situated for the time being. After all, you've got an entire new city to get accustomed to. The people here seem to be trying to get themselves situated as well, though obviously that's for entirely different reasons. The world continues to change, around them and you both, and overall things do seem to be going in a direction that might be considered favorable. Noticeably, the grunts in the TV station don't seem to be changing at all, regardless of what happens to the other locals; that might be cause for some concern... CURRENT LOCATION: JUBILIFE CITY POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week eleven 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!]

I mean, I've had them for a while, but when you think about it...

[He holds up an arm and bends it a few times like it's some weird party trick.]

...right?

[hyruglyphics]

[ . . . Pfffthahah. Okay. ... No, she can't see it, but it is funny. ]

[eudaimonikos]

[Michael laughs too.]

I mean, I just - you really are so breakable, I just want to keep you all safe.

[hyruglyphics]

You're not that much more sturdy than us, right now. You know that, right?

[ But she nods, smiling - the sentiment is appreciated. ]

[eudaimonikos]

I actually am, a little. We tend to make these pretty heat-resistant, because of all the fire.

[Though apparently that left him hilariously unprepared for Snowpoint]

But if this body dies, I'll just make a new one. It'd be fine.

[hyruglyphics]

[ . . . ]

Can you do that, even here?

[eudaimonikos]

Gotta be honest, I have no idea.

But the point is, I'd be pretty much okay. Demons can't actually be killed - the most that ever happens is that each of our atoms are placed on the surface of a different sun to burn in agony forever, and no one here seems like they're going to try that.

[hyruglyphics]

[ . . . What the fuck does that even mean? But??? ]

... My point is merely that we're in a different realm entirely. Things might not be so cut and dry. And besides I would be worried about you.

[eudaimonikos]

Yeeeah, yeah, Jake said the same thing.

[He waves a little, looking sheepish.]

I'm not saying I'm gonna put myself in danger for no reason. It'd be a waste. Plus, I can feel pain, and it isn't my favorite thing in the world.

[hyruglyphics]

[ She should have known Jake would question that.

She smiles a little more for it. ]

Well, as long as you understand.
