Pokemon Umbral Discussion 19: I Don't Think Nagarai Will Ever Be Named

Astral Harmony · 05-13-2010, 01:25 AM

I'm confused as to why this hasn't happened in these discussion threads.

Moving along, now. The database seems to be taking forever (fucking Disgaea 3!) but hopefully it'll all be done within a few days.

Incidentally, the RP will now return to the agency, where the wackiest thing I've typed yet-

*Remembers Lola's Sexy Party*

Well, where one of the wackiest things I've typed yet is happening to an NPC I've taken a fondness to, Moon Travorian. Plus, it's a good excuse to introduce mo' ladies. And those won't be the only ones.

And since Dracorian really wants it, I will actually implement a dumbassed point system indicating who likes who. Because that's good GMing!

Menarker · 05-13-2010, 02:28 AM

Well, for those who hated my sidestory, it's coming to an end.

That picture above is lacking. >_>
First, they missed the frickin first line "Prepare for Trouble!"
Secondly. No girls. None at all.
I am sadden. >_> (Then again, we are spoiled)

Anyhow, looking forward to seeing what comes next. ^^

Astral Harmony · 05-13-2010, 03:46 AM

There. Another bomb was dropped.

And to make up for the last picture...

Satisfied?

Menarker · 05-13-2010, 07:46 AM

An interesting post, although I was hoping that the night-time conversation that Pierce and Shizuka and Renny between Rayleen and Whitney was actually answered. *Renny's trying to deal with sleeping that night aside with Lola beside him along with 3 other girls aside* Honestly, felt like the totally copied 8bit D&D thing was trying to push that off the stage.

Doesn't help that I got little to no idea how we're going to proceed from this point on, unless you're just finishing the sidequest and making a new quest right after. After all, I can't think of any reason for anyone to be involved with Moon's triple marriage issue. I can't think of one for Renny, and he's the one with the most reason to have a reason since he was the 3rd spectator that Shannon and Moon didn't pick up. Evangaleen said to Lola "remember last night when you joined me in the forest? There was a fourth person." Given that Evangaleen plus Lola is only two people, they would probably be wondering who the third one was.

Ah well. If I have to, I'll just make a post with Renny attempting to get Moon/Shannon a bottle of his wine. And one to Shizuka to give to the other Kimonos who couldn't make it to the party. Maybe a side trip to Jeanette to ask about Mollesk and give her one too since she couldn't make it to the party.

AB: How do you think the relationship point system will operate and will it be the same for everyone, growth wise and all that? (Hoping that Lola/Renny relationship is high up.)

And thanks for the new pic. Adds a little smile to my face.

Well, I did. Then I remembered I was supposed to be outraged.

I'm calling bullshit on this right now. We'll duel after you get your upgrade, so I can make you my little bitch.

I guess it's because I'm running a tight ship for my quest so there won't be much room for Pierce to have some time with the girls. Also, not everyone's sidequest is a party with particularly strong wine.

Damnit AB! Pierce didn't have a chance to get hammered!

And yeah, would've been nice if the conversations had been finished.

Whatever you say. :3

AB: The following would be nice if you could somehow find it in your heart to edit this in your post and address them.

But yeah, Pierce spent a few posts trying to chat up Shizuka and his attempt to even say thanks to them in his own way which ended up sounding very Pierce like and actually sincere as opposed to his supposed inspirational thing. Would have been nice for Shizuka to have actually responded, whether favorable or not. (Although I can't imagine very many plausible reasons why it would be anything but favorable.)

Same with that Renny bedroom thing. At the very start of the quest, there was a huge drivel about leadership, with Harriette (who is currently taking a shower but could arrive and interject in the conversation) and Whitney both contributing their insight on the nature of truly great leaders and Renny asking Rayleen what she saw in him that was so worthwhile or valuable. As much as he is talented, he's not exactly complete and he's still trying to grow and understand his place.
Not to mention that Renny spending the night with sexy ladies in his own bed got to be rather unique and un-nerving especially when one of them is someone he got a real crush on. He's a young guy still learning about himself, not experienced like Pierce or Impact would be and the notion is unfamiliar territory to him.

Just felt like several missed oppurtunity with those endings rushed, especially when the battles were rushed too.

Dracorion · 05-13-2010, 09:35 AM

For Chrissakes, will ya quit raggin' on Pierce's inspirational moment? It was totally sincere! I just botched it, Pierce didn't. I promise you, future moments like that will knock your socks off.

How is Pierce experienced? Romance-wise, I mean. Did you not see that awkward thank-you (that I'm actually worried wasn't awkward enough)?

I mean, Pierce is blessed with self-awareness so he knows exactly what his shortcomings are. But that doesn't stop him from making the same mistakes.

Screw it, as soon as Geminex posts to give Pierce his Dragon Slave, I'm posting drunk Pierce before the team takes off that day. Aria gets her nickname, and Pierce is going to be raising all kinds of hell.

Menarker · 05-13-2010, 09:48 AM

Yeah, the first attempt was a botch to me, but was trying to compliment your second attempt. (Your first attempt sounded like a "cheering up the troops war speech" or an "American Patriotism" slogan, neither which honestly seemed to fit.)

Well, I meant that Pierce is experienced in actually KNOWING about the process of trying to win a girl. Renny for the "longest time" was in the mindset of friendship and is just starting to wade into the deep end... almost as if his idea of romance is based on the older Disney movies! >_> Quite a far cry from reality, especially what he started to see with Shannon and Moon. And all the stripping from Sexy Parties and all that. A late bloomer to say the least. :3

If you want, Renny could attempt to give Aria her nickname... after a few botched attempts like Iris and all that.

Dracorion · 05-13-2010, 09:56 AM

No, Pierce doesn't know how to get a girl. His only tactic is being stupid and awkward until she decides to stop fooling around and jumps him.

Dominic and Maria are the worst parents ever. I mean, did they even give Renny the biology talk or the sex talk? Hell, did Renny ever even watch TV or movies? Because anything that has a romance plot will tell you that getting a girl takes more than just looking at one and suddenly being struck by warm, fuzzy feelings.

I'd like to think Renny did watch TV and movies and was simply willfully ignorant. You wanted to stay a kid at heart, Renny.

No, screw it. This has taken long enough. Drunk Pierce is naming Aria and that's final.

Menarker · 05-13-2010, 10:20 AM

Fine, I was mistaken about Pierce.

Well, I know a few people who had been taught sex education from parents and schools and still quit at odds at how to deal with the finer points of sexuality. They might know a bit about how pregnancy occur, but actually jumping from friendship to lover is quite a step, especially if you don't hang around with people your age that much or don't get that much exposure to that sort of thing. (Renny traveled with pokemon mainly and hanged with his family.) PATCA is... unlike most organizations in terms of how many women they got.
