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!

Oh!

[Ah yeah he's getting distracted huh? It's just so cool to finally get to see one of these guys.]

Yeah...you're right. Let's take them there.

"...Keep hold of it. You're keeping it calm right now." If they ended up getting into trouble, he didn't want the little creature to panic and run off or lash out in a battle. If Asriel could keep Mimikyu calm, then they could get to the Centre quickly and without trouble. He led the way, touching Darkness' feathers briefly.

"You're doing well. Keep it up." Darkness chirped before taking off again, circling overhead. He would need to let him rest tomorrow.
better2do: (Happy to be with you)

[personal profile] better2do 2016-11-10 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I will.

[He's being very gentle with the Mimikyu, patting it on its back and letting it lean on his chest. It seems to like how warm Asriel is.]

It likes snuggles, Mister Walter.

[He loves this little friend]

Walter paused, thoughts clouding over. "Doesn't everyone?" He asked quietly, concentrating on the path to the Pokemon Centre. He didn't want to look back, swallowing around bitter sadness.
better2do: (Got somethin on your cheek there)

[Walter be sure you catch one when they can be caught. Perhaps it too will like snuggles.]

I hope so. I didn't for a long while, but I like them now.

"You didn't?" That was interesting and caused Walter to wait, so Asriel could catch up and walk beside him. Some of the children at the orphanage refused to be touched but that came from nearly every touch being linked to pain or punishment. But Asriel...didn't have that air about him. And he had come to like hugs again. How did that happen?
better2do: (hold me close)

[personal profile] better2do 2016-11-23 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I was really...

["Weird as a flower".

Nnnnnnnope nope nope not saying that, Asriel pauses to rethink his words.]


...I wasn't...myself for a long time. Everything was boring, and, I wasn't nice at all. But, a good friend helped me get back to my senses - and hugs became really nice again.

"...I'm not sure what is myself anymore." Walter murmured. For so long, his consciousness and Valtiels had been inescapably melded, swirling together until he often lost track of what were his desires and what was Valtiel's. And in a way, it didn't matter. They had the same goal, to be with the Holy Mother. Although Walter knew he personally liked being close to his Pokemon. He had a feeling that Valtiel wouldn't have.

He didn't elaborate. "Is it still calm?"
better2do: (W-What?!)

[personal profile] better2do 2016-11-29 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Well, that's okay. You can figure out what yourself is here if you want.

[After all, Asriel was rediscovering himself a lot here - rediscovering sadness and joy, excitement, curiosity, fear...it felt like he was new and old all at the same time. Even if other people couldn't quite understand, if they needed to find themselves, there shouldn't be anything wrong with that, right?

As if to answer Walter's question, the Mimikyu chirps contentedly in Asriel's hold.]


Ah, yeah, it's okay still.
