Week 1.

[azumods]

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!]

Oh, it isn't silly at all! The city is so vast and lovely, so of course there's plenty to see. And it's good to see you being so responsible with your new friend already.

[ventulus]

Thanks. I try my best.

[ Ventus rubs the top of his nose proudly. You know, in the way some people do. ]

Oh, and we haven't really gotten a chance to exchange names, right? I'm Ventus, but you can call me Ven.

[divinedescendant]

I am Emmeryn, of Ylisse. [She nods her head politely.] Strange as the circumstances are, I am happy to meet you, Ven.

[ventulus]

Yeah, same!

[ Even if he tumbled into their meeting it looks like everything turned out fine. ]

Say, what's Ylisse like?

[divinedescendant]

[Emmeryn takes a couple of short steps that could be misconstrued for her trying to leave except that she says, ] Here, come walk with me. [She won't keep going unless he follows, of course, but this way they can both soak in the sight of the city. In part, it's because she needs a moment to decide how best to describe her beloved home in response to so vague a question.]

The holy kingdom shares its name with the continent. Its people are hardy and brave, but peaceful in their perseverance. [And then, a little playfully:] And the weather is much warmer than this, too.

[ventulus]

[ Ventus does follow, kind of like a puppy does that's attached to the hip. That being said, he keeps looking behind himself to make sure Klefki is following along too. ]

That sounds nice. I bet the warmer weather's even better if there's a beach nearby.

[ Taking note of the important things as always. ]

What did you usually like to do back at home?
