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!] |

[He straightens from what he was doing, scooping the cat up in one hand.]
They're selling more types of balls down the hall, but they're all for Pokemon. Just better at holding them in, I guess. Did you know they go out and just...throw those at wild Pokemon until it sticks?
no subject
[Huh. Sounds like it'd be...he doesn't know what to think about that]
I dunno if we should. None of us know how to take care of one of these guys, getting more would be irresponsible.
no subject
[He turns the ball over in his hands once more.]
But catching one of them in a ball means that it's yours. I'm not sure if this is a custom that they recognize, or if the balls do something besides just containing them. Either way, I think that might be why ours will follow us around.

[Because if it turns out Pokeballs do some sort of brainwashing upon the Pokemon Kiryu is going to be extremely upset with this world]
These are available to the general public...it better not be anything unsavory.

[He doesn't even necessarily think the Pokeballs are bad, he's just
playing devil's advocate]

[Kiryu wonders, having never been in Florida and what not]
no subject
[it's just fun to dunk on Florida?]
no subject
[Florida needs someone to play devil's advocate. Too bad you're on the side that won't do that, Michael]
no subject
[There's genuine fondness somewhere in there, past the entirely serious insult.]
When he was young, he and his friends honed their skills by playing “Hit the Flamingo with the Empty Red Bull Can”.
no subject
...maybe you really are onto something about Florida.
[Welp. Screw Florida]
no subject
[It's so fun]
So, you know what Florida is. Where are you from?
no subject
[Quite the normal world, all things considered]
no subject
That all existed where I come from, too. Well, on Earth there. I wonder how many of us come from similar worlds...obviously not Zelda.
