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!]

I'll help with that, too.

[It's super nice.]

Not exactly? Hm. Do you have idols where you're from?

[anythingforyou]

No, I've never heard of such things, I'm afraid. What exactly is it that they do?

[perfectselfie]

I...guess you would call us bards. We dance and sing and perform for people.

[anythingforyou]

Hmm...well, I suppose the difference then would simply be what you sing about. I wouldn't want to put you on the spot if you're not inclined, sweetie, but what do you sing about?

[perfectselfie]

That's all right. Let me think...

[What's the common theme in all of their songs? Aya has to think about it.]

...we sing about love, our feelings, and the connections between people.

[anythingforyou]

[...Oh no, that's precious.]

I see...that sounds absolutely adorable. Hmhm...youth really does allow you many options, to sing so freely about such things.

I've always wanted to be able to sing like this, so I'm happy to have the chance.
