tuesday week 13 ☆ interrogate cynthia club

[Emmeryn spends the earliest part of the week floating the idea of getting everyone together at once, less in a way like she's taking a poll and more like this is totally happening so get your thoughts together ahead of time—and Tuesday late in the afternoon she gathers everyone, Lucas and Cynthia included, in the Pokémon Center. Better that they all hear the answers together, she figures; better that Cynthia doesn't have to answer the same question twenty-odd times, is how she presents it to her beforehand, while apologizing for asking her to be at the center of things like that. It all comes together regardless, one way or another.

So! Here we are in the Pokémon Center; maybe it's kind of a tight fit but, y'know, worse has happened. Worse will probably happen again in the future if we're being completely honest with ourselves. Duma, about as useful as ever, stands half-asleep at Emmeryn's feet.

Thank you so much for agreeing to come see us all like this, Cynthia. We have quite a bit of catching up to do, don't we?

[floor's yours everyone please don't make emmeryn have to put on her babysitting hat]

Eight.

[So with Candice and Maylene, that makes five.]

[ well that's not too bad, at least. ]

Alright. Maybe our next steps need to be retrieving the remaining gym leaders.
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
That might be a good start. One of them was located in Canalave City; that's also where our library is, which might be of help to you seeing as we're going to be dealing heavily with legends from here on out.
hyruglyphics: (more expressive!)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-08-28 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Zelda raises her hand to supply, mostly just to throw that out there, ]

We had also heard before now that there are two deities near Canalave who might be convinced to the cause.
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Darkrai and Cresselia.

[She sounds proud of you? Good job.]

Well, I imagine receiving their blessing on your travels won't hurt. If nothing else, providing aid to them should they need it can only be a good thing.
hyruglyphics: (so like I'll get some better)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-08-28 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Darkrai and Cresselia... she nods. Honestly, that would be sound, right? ... Man, to go around to the ancient spirits of this land is a task in and of itself. Ah, actually- ]

... I believe we may also have played our part in helping another. A small creature outside of Floaroma who seemed to have control over the growth of its flowers.
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, you've met Shaymin!

[That seems to brighten her up a bit, really.]

Shaymin is wonderful, you were lucky you got to see it. I'm sure it was glad for the help.
hyruglyphics: (but for now let's do this)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-08-28 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Shaymin is it's name? Yes! Several of us [ . . . Glance at Camilla... ] Happened upon it while we were in the village, following patches of blighted flowers. It was most out of sorts at the time. I... actually thought it might have been poisoned.

[ A shrug ] Though it recovered more through being hugged.
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Shaymin enjoys people, and the gratitude they exude.

[...So yeah, it was probably having a great time with everybody hugging it, honestly...]

[ . . . Okay so she's taking out a notebook here. Her Volume 2 of Zelda Notes ]

... So in terms of deities ...

There are the three lake guardians - Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf. There's Shaymin, who we've met. Those four - or at least he guardians - could be nominally thought of as being on our side.

Darkrai and Cresselia near Canalave - it sounds as if their status isn't known? And then that banished Pokémon is in its own world. [ With Dawn...? She really wants to ask about... that... but won't. ] So its status is also unknown? Or is it altogether still healthy, just perhaps not helpful?

And then Cyrus still controls the rulers of Time and Space, as well as the Creator?

[ ... Did she miss any? Are there any more she doesn't know about? That's the implication here. ... Or also the names for the ones Cyrus has if she missed those too. ]
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
You've been doing well at keeping track of all of this. I'm impressed.

But yes, that sounds right. Giratina is the Pokémon that was banished, and to my knowledge it's definitely still alive and well, just not likely to be of much assistance. Darkrai and Cresselia are still unknown.

Cyrus controls Dialga and Palkia, the rulers of time and space. The Creator is Arceus.
hyruglyphics: (I mean some look okay?)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-08-28 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She blushes a little for that but. Scribing in her notes some more here... Lala... ]

Are there other ones which ought to be considered? Obviously the gym leaders probably take more priority...
enjoymyatelier: but what would that even do. (gradients of babylon...?)

[personal profile] enjoymyatelier 2018-08-28 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
What about Regigigas? I know some of our group found that one in Snowpoint, and they... well, they weren't aggressive, at least.
hyruglyphics: (or something like that)

[personal profile] hyruglyphics 2018-08-28 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh right! Yes, [ And for Cynthia's benefit: ] Michael and some others found him within the temple there. Candice's Pokémon was also with it.
eudaimonikos: (but I want to make yours come true)

[whispers in the background]

Its name is Big Blinky and we're buds.
redbellion: (but i break loose)

[personal profile] redbellion 2018-08-28 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
What kinds of legends are we talking about? Are they anything like the three that we already encountered?
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Pokémon like the rulers of time and space. The Supreme Creator of the world.

Those are the sort of legends we'll be dealing in, if you really want to help this world.
redbellion: (NrvMMMq)

[personal profile] redbellion 2018-08-28 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[ rulers of time and space. the supreme creator of the world. keith can't say he's gone up against anything like them before, and he feels some apprehension. uncertainty. ]

Sounds like it's the best chance we have at taking down Cyrus.
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
It does.

Canalave City seems like a good shot, then. Somewhere to go from here, if you all think that's fair.
redbellion: (Eq3VuFk)

[personal profile] redbellion 2018-08-28 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
We'll discuss it later. Thanks for the info.

[ ... ] I have another question. It's about the...gifts you gave us a while ago.
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh? I received them from a friend.
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. I was informed that they were yours, and I left them for you.
redbellion: (NrvMMMq)

[personal profile] redbellion 2018-08-28 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[ he decides the best way to do this is to show her. he's still hanging onto it--the toy replica of what truly belongs to him. he reaches into his pack and pulls out a blade. it's plastic. dull. ]

This is what I got. It's a model of something that's mine. Cynthia, I need the real thing back.

Do you know where it is?
azumods: (Cynthia.)

[personal profile] azumods 2018-08-28 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I don't. Especially because we don't carry weapons.
