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 still doesn't regret that decision.]
O-of course! They're my closest friends...the things we've done together, I wouldn't trade it for anything...
[He looks small, shrinking in on himself even when he stands firm.]
...I have to get back to them...they're waiting for me.
no subject
...Anyway. His voice is easy when he speaks; his expression is always a little on the intense side, but that's just kind of his face.]
Don't worry, kid. We're gonna get you back to your friends, okay? Wouldn't want 'em to be without you for too long.
no subject
...Yeah. We've got an important game coming up, you know?
[He laughs nervously.] Although...that seems kinda small compared to, uh...
[Monkeys that can set things on fire? Weird soulless robot world? Being dragged across dimensions to be in this madness?]
...All this.
no subject
If it's important to you, then it's important, you know? I've got some stuff to get back to myself, there's these kids I made a promise to and I want to keep it.
But if we're here now, we might as well look into whatever we can. We've got to in order to get home, if that Cynthia lady's right about it.
no subject
[And if he can help anyone get back home...he'd do it.]
I wonder what she expects us to find down at Lake Valor, though...
no subject
[He shrugs.]
Talking to God's a little beyond me.
no subject
[Sena laughs nervously.]
I dunno what would wanna make a god speak to us... [To him, he means.]
no subject
[He knows the feeling, honestly.]
I'll probably let some of the others handle it. Emmeryn, maybe. Or Zelda. They're the sort of people I can see talking to something like that.
no subject
...Definitely Zelda. She's got all sorts of knowledge about mystic stuff like that...
[Meanwhile, Sena would probably...trip over his own feet, honestly. He can just see it now.]
no subject
[It's kind of weird to hear her talk about it sometimes.]
We don't really have anything like that where I'm from, and I'm guessing you don't either.
no subject
Only in stories. [And sometimes whatever Hiruma cooks up.]
I guess we'll learn more about it while we're here, huh?
no subject
[It doesn't sound entirely sarcastic; this whole thing's kind of weird, but it's not...terrible? Outside of the weird soulless people wandering around.]
You been figuring out what your friend's like, in the meantime? ...As much as any of 'em are like anything.
no subject
[Sena looks at Monta still clambering around the tires he'd never quite finished setting up.]
He likes...climbing?
[Good job.]
no subject
Doing better than me, kid, I've got no idea what's going on in this guy's head most of the time. You give yours a name yet?
no subject
He's pretty cute, though... [The little suspenders...]
Oh. Uh, he's called Monta.
[The monkey looks over at hearing his name. It's clearly responding to it, at least.]
no subject
Monta, huh... Named after anything?
no subject
[He blinks, then smiles sheepishly.]
He'd be mad if he knew I said it, but...he really does look like a monkey...
[Sena can hear the enraged MUKYAAAAAAAA in his mind right now.]
no subject
Jesus Christ, that's great.
[He'a amused, anyway.]
no subject
[Sena blinks owlishly, not expecting that reaction.]
no subject
no subject
So, uh...what'd you call yours?
no subject
...His name is Hlača.
no subject
[You...didn't say that very loudly...]
Hla...ča?
no subject
Hlača, yeah. It's Serbian; I've had a lot of business there.
no subject
[Sena's not a very bright child, unfortunately, so a lot of that goes over his head. He does understand it's a foreign language, though.]
What does it mean?
