Week 1.
WEEK 1. As Cynthia had promised, the sun does indeed rise the next morning. Whether you slept or not (and sleeping inside the Pokémon Center you were in before seems totally fine by the attendant), it seems Cynthia kept her word; she left sometime shortly before sunrise, and you haven't been bothered by Team Galactic and those that work for it in the interim. It isn't advisable to return to the headquarters building, however. At least not for the time being. However, a new day does dawn, and with it comes the knowledge that you're in an unfamiliar city, completely on your own. There are several things to be done before you can leave: gathering supplies and provisions, finding maps, obtaining new clothes... Of course, your new "companions" are still with you, and they don't seem willing to leave your side; they'll follow you dutifully, but they still seem...wrong, horribly so, and it doesn't seem to be wearing off. Maybe if you work with them a little...? Try to talk to them, train them, teach them to do things... Who knows? It might do them some good. POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week one 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! Feel free to investigate the city as you see fit this week; we ask only that you try to stagger investigations and be mindful of what's already been checked. If you wish to investigate, notify the mods in your comment subject for your top-level and we'll get on it as soon as possible!] |

Would calling out to them be enough? Unfortunately, I haven't memorized all their names yet, it seems there are many kinds according to the literature here. [ Wait, speaking of that he adds with a smile. ] Allow me to introduce myself as well, I am Shirou Kotomine.
no subject
But don't worry about not knowing them all yet. It sounds like there's a lot of these little guys out here—I imagine it'll take us a while to learn all their names. [ A really long while. Briefly, he wonders if there are more Duel Monsters or Pokemon. His instincts say Duel Monsters, but who can really tell? AS he wonders this, he steps forward in the grass and starts parting it gently. ]
no subject
I imagine so, but I still intend to remember all their names. Or the ones I encounter, at least. [ Ruler class tendencies, you know? He follows behind Johan, but he honestly doesn't see much considering he's only 5'5". ]
no subject
I wouldn't mind learning them too. Maybe when we're on the road, we can study together. [ While he's not the best at studying, he doesn't mind if it's something like this. It just seems respectful to learn all the different names and types of pokemon—but maybe that's the duelist in him talking. ]
no subject
[ Less Ruler class and more how old are you really Shirou speaking here. But for now, it's probably best to focus on finding pokemon and melting their hearts with overly friendly smiles. Who's going to be their first victim! ]
no subject
Johan stops and blinks. ]
Bells?
no subject
We're far enough away from the town, so it must be coming from a pokemon... Over there, I think I saw a flash of something red. [ Good thing the grass provides a nice contrast, though the tinkling of bells helps too. ]
no subject
With a skip in his step, he cautiously dives through the grass to try and get to the aforementioned "red thing." Since the pokemon isn't trying too hard to hide, it doesn't take much effort for him to sift through the grass and find where the ringing is coming from. Once he spots it, he leans in. ] Whoa... So there are pokemon like this out here too?
