HALLOWEEN 2016: Team Skull Log

Who: Everyone who wants to join a team!
Where: Goldenrod City!
When: October 31st!
Summary: Team Skull's planned a full-fledged assault on Goldenrod; join up with a team and take them down!
Rating: Will vary from thread to thread. Warn for common triggers if something comes up.
Log:

It's been three days since Guzma's made his first announcement over the radio, but try as the police might, no one's been able to get to him since; after making his call to arms, asking all available Skulls to come to Goldenrod to have some fun, he seems to have completely dropped off without a trace. But Candela isn't concerned much about that. She's been at this for long enough to know the song and dance; this is a pivotal spot, after all, and Guzma will be back here before long, probably with more than enough cronies to go around. When that happens, they'll head him off at the pass. Easy as that. He's gotta get orders out to the people outside, after all, and the only place he can do that is here.

He won't take it over a second time. Team Valor will make sure of that.

Meanwhile, outside the tower, Blanche would like to think she has a bit more control of the situation. Candela had been so gung-ho on kicking Guzma's ass in the tower that Blanche almost didn't have the heart to tell her that there was probably an ambush waiting in there for her. ...Rather, she tried, but Candela has a way of being far too stubborn for her own good...in any case, if she needs backup, she's out here to provide it, but if there are going to be riots and messes in the streets, its better to be out here where the damage is going to be at its highest, just to stop it before it starts. Already, Team Skull is starting to come out in small hordes, and it won't be long before things start to get hectic out here. Team Mystic, though, is dedicated towards stopping this before it gets a chance to start. ...But perhaps they'd be taken a bit more seriously if Candela and Spark hadn't forced her to dress up for Halloween--

Speaking of Spark, of course, Team Instinct's leader seems to have his priorities in order; if there are going to be riots and debris in the streets, some of the wild Pokemon in the area might just get hurt, and that will never do! So Spark has taken it on himself to lead a search-and-rescue charge with Team Instinct--any stray Pokemon in the Goldenrod area should be either captured or brought straight to a Pokemon Center ASAP! The goal is not to leave even one behind! ...Of course, Team Skull is a problem, too, but won't somebody think of the Pokemon--

You're free to NPC any Team Skull grunts and Pokemon interactions yourselves, but Team Valor will have the chance to battle Guzma, and Team Mystic will have the chance to battle Plumeria! Please be patient with responses in these threads; if the boss's Pokemon start to become too weak, they'll end up making a tactical retreat!

One last thing: you're all encouraged to have your character in costume for an event like this, and your team leaders will be dressed in costume, too! If three or more characters in costume participate in a thread together, a miracle might occur, and the Legendary Bird corresponding with your team has a chance to appear at your discretion! This applies in battles with Guzma and Plumeria, as well!

Have fun and Happy Halloween!

[Hawke noted the blood on the conked out man's face with a grin. Maker, it had been a long time since she'd seen someone that roughed up.]

You make a good point.

[She thought it a little odd, that he was so uneager to show his face. But then, she had met a number of odd people in her time in Kirkwall. This was normal enough.]

Mind teaming up?

[Jack wipes the blood off his knuckles on the robes of his costume. Good thing he's wearing black tonight, the stains don't show up.]

[He gives the woman a once over, sizing up her and her team. Yeah, she looks tough.]


Sure, why not? More the merrier, and all those dumb cliches. Why should I hog all the moron punching for myself?

[And hey, she seems to appreciate a good bit of violence. He likes that.]
laughingstawke: (Boom bitches)

[Hawke gave a sharp nod, before a scuffle of feet from nearby drew her attention. Her attention snapped to the noise. Noting one of the Team Skull bandits, her fist shot out.]

[The crunch from the man's nose was nothing short of satisfying.]

[Behind her, Aveline the Honedge hovered impatiently, perhaps even annoyed. She was practically useless if Hawke was going to be solving this with violence.]

[Hawke paid her no mind, instead glancing at Jack with a satisfied smirk.]


Not bad, right? It's why they call me the Champion. [Maker, she was loving this.]

[The lady packs a punch! Hot. Sure, Jack's seeing somebody, but that doesn't mean he can't appreciate a badass woman kicking some ass.]

Champion, huh? What're you the champ of? Besides, breaking dickbags' noses. They call me Handsome Jack.

[Because he started calling himself that and killed anybody who refused to acknowledge the 'Handsome', but still.]
laughingstawke: (Smirking w/ paint)

Whole list of things really. [She shook out her hand, doing her best to mask the pain. It'd been awhile since she'd done that, and she forgot just how bad it could smart.]

Saved a whole city once. Well, parts of it more than once.

[Handsome Jack sounded just a bit egotistical, but then, she was the one running around squawking about what a badass she used to be. She really couldn't complain]

[Instead she held a hand out.]


Please to meet you. If Champion doesn't suit your fancy, call me Hawke.

I dunno, kinda like 'Champ'.

[Jack's grinning under the shadow of his hood. His blood's racing, his fists ache, he's spattered with blood....it's a good day. And it's always better with a badass lady around.]

But Hawke, that's cool, I like that, too. Never got the whole thing with birds and hawks and crap till I got my own here.

[He angles his shoulder, and Bloodwing (II) rustles her wings and chirps from her perch.]

They're pretty awesome!
laughingstawke: (smug look maybe contempt)

[personal profile] laughingstawke 2016-11-01 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Call me whatever it is you like, Handsome. [If she was flattered at all by his praise, she didn't show it. Hawke was used to praise. Even if she did miss it, she wasn't about to trip all over herself trying to thank him.]

Family name. [She shrugged.] Better than my mother's name. Amell. So pretentious.

Eh, I've heard way worse.

[Taking advantage of the current lull in morons attempting to beat him, Jack tends to his team. They're holding their own damn well, but they're taking some hits.]

You wanna hear a pretentious name? How 'bout 'Zarpedon'.

[Jack' Glameow - so, so close to evolving at this point, he's hoping she does it tonight - purrs and Jack snorts.]

Yeah, close enough, you're Zarpedumb. 'Cause she was.

[It wasn't exactly a good pun on his part. Which made it just good enough for Hawke to utter an amused laugh. She didn't have much in the way of a distinguished sense of humor.]

It's certainly no worse than what I've heard. There's an angry man fighting for a throne back where I'm from. Duke Gaspard de Chalons. [Hawke rolled her eyes.] Plenty more like that, too.

Ha! What the hell is he, the bad guy from some crappy romance novel?

[Because that's exactly what it sounded like. He'd be the guy the heroine was engaged to, an arranged marriage or some shit, and there'd probably be a stable boy or a soldier or something.... Jack's knowledge of romance novels is mostly second hand.]

So, I haven't seen you around. You pretty new?

[She has to be, he likes to think he'd notice a badass babe like this before.]
