Pokemon Umbral Theatre 11: Things That Make You Go Wuh?

Astral Harmony · 10-02-2010, 04:06 AM

Cut for the emo kids and Flash for the voluptuous ladies. Pokemon has got shit figured out.

I feel sad for Mijumaru, but I myself have always picked the Grass starter, and Generation Five is not going to change that...unless they offer a Dark type starter. Seriously, can't we get starters in one generation that aren't Water, Grass, or Fire? Or is that only possible in the Colosseum games for Gamecube and those mystery dungeon games?

At first Renny was like this...but then he Lola'd.

So I'm probably gonna post tonight. Apparently I can access this site from work, though I'll try to limit it because work always makes me so goddamn melancholy.

Actually, a question to Dracorian: did you want me to push the plot forward for you as well? I kinda left openings for you to run ahead like you wanted in the PMs, but so far you didn't bite, so I'm not sure how to proceed.

And could someone else post first? I don't like double-posting except for the reasons that the first post couldn't contain any more characters.

Well, I was hoping you'd answer Pierce's last question.

But since it was a long shot anyway, sure, I'll have Pierce run ahead.

It's already set up, anyway.

Shizuka DID answer Pierce's questions, even if she was probably intentionally vague on two of them.

They knew about Burkmont funding Faynoc because Idolus made a temporary truce and thus provided information that came from Marionetta and Twiloch, both of whom were supposably working for Burkmont before he betrayed their agreement not to round up the rogue ruin generals for his own uses.

As for the message, Burkmont is sending out a special force unit (probably one led by a Gabriel Force) to retrieve some of the data and speciemens, so the Kimonos are going to wreck their shit, perhaps killing Faynoc while the Burkmont forces are inside. I mean, what better way to ensure that you didn't let any of the squad forces or any of the cultist escape than to blow the place up and all its content with them inside?

As for how they got in, that's really one of the most pointless questions. They are inside now regardless of how they got in. Maybe Idolus helped them out with his Destroyer status power. Maybe they were let in like Pierce was, due to Faynoc wanting to get rid of the Kimonos for attempted assassination. Maybe they have enough power of their own to get in or sneak in.

So really, you can go ahead and write your post unless there is something more that Pierce needed to know?

Either that, or someone else could write a post. I recall that Matthias might have a question for Irene or there might be a flashback for Impact.

The fourth question pretty much went unanswered.

Pierce was asking about the message Shizuka told the trainer to relay to Mika. About something that Chizuru says the whole facility to a crater.

Pierce is asking for details. Like, "what do you mean you're going to be hungry?" or something.

Even if the question wasn't clear, and it is, your answer is completely unsatisfactory.

As for how they got in, that was just curiosity. But it can be taken for granted.

Menarker · 10-02-2010, 11:14 AM

Well, its a guess, and Shizuka is pretty much operating under a "Need-to-know" basis at this time. There seems to be a sense of urgency in the mission and she's not going to stop and play 20 questions with Pierce when she won't even clarify what she said for Chizuru, her own partner from the very start.

And hungry could very well be meant literally, as she's probably thinking of going OVERDRIVE and burning up tons of her energy to practically nuke the place. Obviously a code-word since she would otherwise make that request to Chizuru, who is obviously the much better cook. As for what the codeword actually means for Mika, it might be something like "Don't come any closer. I'm going to blow the place up and I don't want you caught in the blast." or the opposite "Come back me up, I'll need help getting out after I cast Doom on the entire facility."

Dracorion · 10-02-2010, 11:22 AM

She didn't need to clarify to Chizuru because Chizuru already knows!

And it's obvious to me that Shizuka's planning to turn into a giant spider demon and swallow the facility whole. Pierce, on the other hand, isn't quite so genre-savvy, so he has a right to be curious. Not to mention, I imagine he'd be pretty miffed is Shizuka ate the building while Sam is still in it.

"And you couldn't be bothered to maybe pass this on to the rest of us?" Chizuru asked.
"Quiet, you. We really don't have to sit around and drink tea."

Chizuru did not know these details in advance. She just knows enough about Shizuka to know that hunger in her case is a euphemism for carnage and destruction.

As for Sam being eaten by Shizuka...

"Shizuka, WHAT THE HELL? My sister was in there!"
"I'm sorrrrry, Pierce..."
"MY SISTER! I RUSHED HERE TO SAVE HER! Now she's GONE!"
"I said I'm sorry... Really I am... I was starved! Maybe we can just let this situation go with some reconciliatory sex...?"
*Eye arch in shock from inappropriate suggestion/excuse.*

And yet I see Pierce being tempted to go along with it. ^^: Sam's fault for joining a cult and what's done is done! ^^;

Chizuru knows exactly what Shizuka meant. Shizuka's just being mischievous about it for her own amusement. That girl's got issues.

Eh, screw it. I'll just edit my RP post.

Does PATCA even try to arrest people anymore?

Like, to even further all the problems I have with it, I can only complain about this stuff OOC because I have an evil-aligned character!

Dracorion · 10-02-2010, 01:03 PM

Well, I'm sure they'd try to arrest Faynoc if the fucker would surrender.

That said, it's AB's fault for making us kill all the villains.

There's going to be like, all of one arrest, maybe, in this whole mission.
