Pokemon Umbral Theatre 30: Go Get Some Snacks... - Page 6

Why do I get the feeling that Rapturous Depth might end up being an actual PATCA mission with potentially party wide results?

I mean, I might as well list in order the people who might end up intending to stay! Elizabeth, Muon (from what AB tells me) for starters...

EDIT: As for rewards, may I suggest for slayers new accessories that are unlocked for all other slayers? Basically, instead of finding just one new item for that PC or so, the adventurer finds something which the scientists back at Ricewood can innovate to create a new invention. It also works better than just improving a single weapon (as suggested above with the "improved dragon slave") because then it would limit the uses of other elements which become lower in power and thus less desirable to bring along.

Am uncertain what could be offered for Trainers/Snaggers or Pokebrids that would not have to be decided on case by case basis. It might be easier to see what rewards are appropriate after some more missions have been completed and we see what the difficulty is like after the new rules.

Additionally, for all the classes, once a certain number of later missions have been completed, access to carry one Wonder Launcher exclusive item per PC per mission. Great to use for a really tight spot! I dunno though. They are pretty powerful, but it's a one-shot thing.

you guys are terrible people. I'll work on a location later.

edit: Me and Gem took the time to make this collab post, but then when I copied/pasted from the edupad it for some reason obliterated the paragraph and dialogue structure and I had to fix it all manually. Might be hard to read.

Dracorion · 07-16-2011, 06:31 PM

Yeah, I so missed Gem's bullshit posts.

I'm surprised Charlotte didn't ask what Impact even wants. I thought even she would know better.

Anyway, I do enjoy how Impact's pretending this is a big commitment thing, even though he didn't give Charlotte anything that actually matters and they didn't agree to anything real.

Bard The 5th LW · 07-16-2011, 06:38 PM

No agreement of any sort really means anything to Charlotte if she decides it doesn't mean anything anymore. So its Impact's risk for whatever it is he wants to accomplish with this.

Should have a post up this afternoon. I'm exhausted from sifting through sprites and backgrounds. But you do get to see a lot of interesting sprites that way. Romancing Saga 3 has got some pretty good ones that I think I'll switch the Final Fantasy VI sprites out for should I ever get off my fat ass and start spriting again after the map is finally done.

I mean, it cracks me up that Impact's being so melodramatic about lunch. One could think it was because it was lunch with Charlotte. Otherwise he's getting excited about nothing.

Maybe we should start considering CharlottexImpact as an actual pairing. Dante, Menarker, thoughts about this?

Anyway, their whole conversation boils down to:

Impact: "So, I'll give you leadership if you'll work for me."
Charlotte: "Cool. So what're we doing?"
Impact: "Um... well, y'see... I'll get back to you on that."

But the part that really cracks me up is that Gem is trying to play it up as Impact laying the foundation for his world conquering.

Except, y'know, the way that's really going to happen is that Eldys is going to choose to back him up because he's a Chosen One, not through any of his own machinations. And Eldys backing him up means Irene, Rayleen and Sakuya back him up. And Irene and Rayleen backing him up means the President of Honmyr backs him up.

Eldys is connected, yo.

While I don't doubt that Impact is going to do a lot of work in the future, the fact is he's got these powerful, well-connected people to lift him up there in the first place. That's the only reason he's going to get to the top in the first place.

That's the bullshit part, by the way. And in the end he's just another Faynoc and Burkmont, only a slightly different kind of sick.

Maybe I would've liked it better if it happened after Impact met Eldys, I guess?

I do enjoy that Impact admits to his own lousy performance in bed in his own thoughts, though.

Bard The 5th LW · 07-16-2011, 08:46 PM

Gem actually was worried that it seemed too dramatic, and I was admittedly a bit too preoccupied to give enough thought to say "Yo change it"

Dracorion · 07-16-2011, 08:52 PM

Nope, screw that. It's done. Those are Impact's thoughts and dialogue and I will accept no others.

If it helps, Bard, you can have Charlotte throw all those things in his face at a later point, if you want.

CharlottexImpact OTP.

Don't hold your breath for it. Or on second thought, do hold your breath for it, see what happens.
