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.

CURRENT LOCATION: VEILSTONE CITY
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!]

Might as well. It's not like I've had time for dates lately.

[jake, no.]
fatalstrikes: (✵ 023)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
I'll take it as a compliment. I'll be sure to find you when it gets dark.
bloodspent: (03. you made a vow)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Looking forward to it.

[we are not going to recognize a goddamn thing in this night sky tonight, buddy]
fatalstrikes: (✵ 025)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Shopping earlier was pretty fun and Yuri's changed into the red outfit, though he's got the shirt unbuttoned down his chest because of course he does?? Of course he does.

Anyway, when it gets dark he wanders off to find Jake, just as promised. Roc's following him as always, and she doesn't seem bothered by being out all day.

It doesn't take long to find Jake just outside the Pokémon Center and Yuri holds up a hand in greeting.]


Hey. Good to see you didn't forget our date.
bloodspent: (23. heavy as a feather)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
[...he is not sure if you always wear your shirts like that or if this is just TITS OUT FOR STUPID DATE, what the hell are you doing

because if it's that first one you are real fucking shy about getting dressed in front of people for someone who runs around with their shirt open]


I'm not the sort of guy that stands people up.
fatalstrikes: (✵ 007)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
[don't judge him!!]

Good to hear. C'mon, let's see if we can find a good spot a little further out.

[He'll head toward the outskirts of the city, assuming Jake's following.]
bloodspent: (28. when you were there first)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Hell yeah, he's following.]

There are roads leading out of this place that look pretty clear, at least for a little while. The view might be better out there, less lights and stuff.

[Not like there are a lot of lights going on here anyway...]
fatalstrikes: (✵ 024)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
That's what I was thinking. The lights aren't that bad here, at least.

[Let's see... Here? Does this seem like a good spot?]
bloodspent: (01. cheated and lied)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Seems like as good a spot as any, if you ask him.]

So what sort of stuff are you going to be looking for? This Brave Vesperia thing?
fatalstrikes: (✵ 004)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Sounds good! Yuri's just going to sit on the ground, then.]

Yeah. I only recognize a few constellations, but Estelle could probably pick them all out.
bloodspent: (07. they're all the same)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Estelle - is that your girlfriend or something?
fatalstrikes: (✵ 010)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
She's just a good friend. She's one of the people I've been travelling with for awhile, she's a real bookworm and she knows a lot about this sort of thing.

[Gestures to the night sky.]
bloodspent: (01. cheated and lied)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Got it.

I don't know a lot about this sort of thing, but I know a bunch of the constellations and stuff. It's good to see familiar shit when you're a good distance from where you started, you know?
fatalstrikes: (✵ 66)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. It's kinda nice that it's always constant, no matter where you go.

[...]

Except here, I guess. I'm not seeing Brave Vesperia.
bloodspent: (07. they're all the same)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
...Yeah.

[Honestly, he doesn't know why either of them expected otherwise, but...]

I'm not seeing anything familiar, either. There are a bunch that really distinctive, like Orion and the Ursas, but I'm not seeing 'em.
fatalstrikes: (✵ 045)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
Guess we really are in a different world.

[The Pokémon and the weird cult-like group made that pretty clear already, but he's been so focused on just moving forward that he hasn't really sat down and thought about it.

...It's really not something he wants to think about.]


I wonder if all the constellations here are based on Pokémon...
bloodspent: (23. heavy as a feather)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
[...Yeah, let's just. Not ever talk about this.]

Probably? I dunno what else they'd base them off of.
fatalstrikes: (✵ 013)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Works for him!!]

They don't seem to have regular animals or monsters here, so I guess it'd have to be Pokémon. They've certainly got a lot of 'em.
bloodspent: (28. when you were there first)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... Either Pokémon or people, I guess, if any of them were important enough. We've got some that are named after people.
fatalstrikes: (✵ 028)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah. I didn't really read anything about the history of this world, so I've got no idea if any of 'em would be named after people.
bloodspent: (03. you made a vow)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I'd bet none of 'em are named after the guy that did this to the world. According to the screaming old man from last night there's no mention of him anywhere you'd think it'd be.
fatalstrikes: (✵ 026)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
["screaming old man"...]

Yeah? I guess I should've checked into that... What was his name again? Cyrus?
bloodspent: (28. when you were there first)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
[...Look. Kayneth made two impressions, and those were "shrieking maniac" and "congratulations on your face."]

Yeah, Cyrus. Pretty sure we had a bunch of kings named that, where I'm from, but never any that were this insane.
fatalstrikes: (✵ 006)

[personal profile] fatalstrikes 2018-06-05 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
[i mean. you're not wrong.]

He certainly sounds like a special brand of crazy.

[Mmm, he's still not really sure what to make of Cyrus beyond "why this, why the fuck did you do this you absolute maniac".]
bloodspent: (29. first you get hurt)

[personal profile] bloodspent 2018-06-05 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Shame that Cynthia lady's opposed to us doing anything about him. We could save her a hell of a lot of time.

[...well.]
