azume | 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]

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. ]

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.

[ 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...
