tuesday week 13 ☆ interrogate cynthia club

[divinedescendant]

[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]

I’m glad those three are relatively okay.

Which ones are still missing?

[azumods]

Byron and Roark, as well as Volkner. All from different parts of the region.

[heritrix]

What parts? It sounds like we'll be heading to Canalave City after this; if any of them are from towns we pass along the way, we can look for them.

[azumods]

Byron's gym is in Canalave City; he specializes in Steel. Roark specializes in Rock-types, and he's from Oreburgh. Both of them are big on mining.

...It might be best for you to leave Volkner to me for now.

[eudaimonikos]

...hey, is there a gym for ghost-types?

[oh good, here's the unhelpful derail]

[azumods]

[That...gets her to laugh a bit.]

You're looking for Fantina's. It's in Hearthome City.

[eudaimonikos]

[Michael consults his mental map, then nods.]

I'll have to try to pencil that in.

[heritrix]

[Can... Can you see the sparkles in her eyes, guys. Rin immediately sits straighter, because mining you say. Mining what? Jewels, perhaps??? Volkner schmolkner, these are two towns she wants to visit immediately.

Wait wait, no. She should be responsible and do her diligence.]

Expecting trouble with him?

[azumods]

He and Cyrus...may have had some bad history.

[She doesn't know for sure, but like. There is a possibility shit got personal there, and "personal" is not good when one of you is a world-ending maniac.]
