Oh god, Typhoons going to become a Missingno!

I very nearly did.

Say hello to Arcturus the Staryu. I did have to resist calling him Patrick Reflect Type is the only premature move Arcturus has and I think it's made up for since I'm not going with the two more logical abilities Staryu can get, which is permanent. I'm representing Reflect type with Staryus colour, if it wasn't clear. Yah, Java isn't the only one who can change types now. I never even knew Reflect Type was a thing until Skitty used it against me with a damn Latias. Fun fact, only 6 mons available to us have access to Reflect type total. Also, seeing as Claude is in the forest shall I send him towards Sawsbuck and co? OH MY GOD THEY KILLED KENNY, YOU BASTARDS! I get to do it cuz Co-host.

Claude After some time swimming and exploring within the luminous waters of the cave, Claude noticed something about a few of the Starmies. Whenever he or one of his pokemon swam nearby, a few of them would change colour. As Claude swam lower the Starmie grew bigger and their lights brighter. Claude marveled at their lights and beautiful gems until he ran out of breath and rushed to the surface where there was precious few staryu scattered about. Only one speck of light, a slip of a pokemon, emitted any light. Claude swam towards this faint pinpoint of light, the tiny sparkle just a few meters away from the edge of shore. There he found, as he had guessed, a Staryu. However, this Staryu was remarkably smaller than the others and when Claude looked closer at the submerged pokemon he noticed that the gem that emitted the light that drew him in wasn't circular like most of the other Staryu. This gem looked like it had been sliced at, the rough edges forming a triangle. Claude moved forward, he got close enough to see part of his reflection within the red gem before it began to flash. Claude immediately closed his eyes, expecting to be blinded. When he opened his eyes though he found that the light was only a feeble flickering, like before. However, like many of the Staryu deeper in the lake, Staryus colouring now resembled... Claude. The bottom of the Staryu had a tinge of pink, the same colour as Claudes T-shirt that he had not bothered to get out of. The Staryus mid-section resembled Claudes light skin colouring and even the tip of the Star had the exact same colouring of Claudes hair. Claude let out a few bubbles of air as he giggled involuntarily. That finally pressed his growing need for air over the edge and he swam back to the surface to find a worried Colere staring at where he had submerged again. She was naturally quite reluctant to enter the water. Her rock type instincts just warned her against it, or so Claude assumed. Lancelot had remained above water as well but Doux had joined Claude down below. Claude could even see the incredibly wet Doux surfacing after him and what looked like a now green and white Star was chasing after. Wait, what? The Staryu burst from the waters surface, propelling itself by spinning and sending a rush of bubbles behind it. The light from below sparkled off of the bubbles and for a split second, the image of a green and white star soaring through a night sky with a sparkling trail was clear to see. Claude was, for what felt like the thousandth time, awed. This lake was full of wonder. And a small part of Claude wanted to take a part back. For the first time, Claude wanted to catch a pokemon. Doux, Claude had found more than caught. Lancelot was a gift from the academy and Colere... Colere was a happy accident. Claude had never actually felt the desire to capture a pokemon. The coordinator swam over to the shore near to where Colere and the Staryu were staring. Again, the staryus colouring was changed. It now bore a similar colour to Coleres hide and when it turned to look at the approaching Lancelot it took on a metallic sheen to match Lancelots armour. It didn't seem violent, hell, it was just curious. Claude thought for a second and quickly went over to where Colere had been guarding his valuables. He quickly grabbed a spare pokeball he always carried in case one of the others broke and his pokedex. Claude walked slowly over to the staryu, he didn't want to starte it. Claude gave no commands to his pokemon and they made no moves either, even if Lancelot looked ready to punt the little star back into the watery depths from whence it came. Cllaude quatted and turned the pokedex on and began selecting a few pokemon and then turned the screen to the Staryu when it displayed the pokemon. The Staryus body changed again. First to the pale violet of an Espeons fur, then the chocolate brown of a Sentret, next the bright red sheen of a Scizors armour. The Staryu made no move at all, the only way you could tell it was a living being was it's rapid colour changes. Eventually Claude closed his Pokedex and the Staryu took on the same bright pink colour of Claudes wet clothing. Claude thought he might have figured what was going on with this Staryu. "You really like seeing other pokemon huh?" No response. only the continued staring at Claude was any indication of where it's attention was. "Well, if you come with me, you could see plenty of other pokemon, kinds you'd never see in this lake. Does that sound good?" Again, no response. Now, Claude put the pokeball onto the floor with the button facing up, although he took a few moments to make sure it would stay still. "If you want to go with me, great. But I wn't force you. Just press that butt-" Before Claude even had a chance to finish the Staryu flopped its whole body onto the pokeball, enveloping it as the customary red light enveloped the Staryu. Three quick shakes and it was done. "Well, you're an enthusiastic one..." Claude mumbled. He released the Staryu from his new home so he could say goodbye to his old one. "We can always come back if you want" Claude tried to promise the Staryu but it remained as stoic as it had beforehand. Claude checked the time and realised he had been gone for quite a while. "Right then everybody, I think it's time we made our way back. Let's be gone." Claude said once he was dried. Doux, Lanceot and Colere started to go off and Claude went to follow when he saw the Staryu was standing on the shore. He was about to call out to the new team member when the gem shone once more, no stronger than before but still a clear message. It was saying goodbye.

[Robert/Luna] Hmm, at least this girl outright asked. Klive could appreciate being straight-forward. However, that didn't mean xe had to be straight too. "Neither, i'm just cray-cray-cuckoo" Klive gave a bemused little smile at xyr own humour and real lack of any answer. "Ah, hello Robert. This is Wanda" Klive said, introducing the girl with a random name that xe almost knew full well wasn't her name.

I can always tell when the episode moved on even a tiny bit because the topic blows up with replies

[Luna] Klive was used to being addressed as You. It was everyone's fall back when they needed to address xem but didn't know their name. It did get on Klives nerves though. "I'm afraid your beans are already spilt if you intend on using a cliched expression to get someone to discuss their own, private, business." Klive berated the girl wit a frown and a furrowed brow.

Just assume you've always done something. Also, my posts will come later in the day now, if at all. School is resuming and it's now leading up to exams. Study or get crucified here...

[Klive/Class] Well, seeing as that was one of our own cultures legends, it wasn't that hard to answer... And how is the tale of Isis and Osiris the most famous myth? I much prefer tales involving Ra and his struggle against Apophis, manifestation of the god of Chaos. Much grander. I should probably stop quibblng with a comment in my mind though. Klive looked around the class for the people from yesterday. Investigation comes first.

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssss ELFUUN!

[beach] Klive tittered a little bit in xyr head. "Ironic considering their technology will probably be developed after 5 of our lifetimes. Now my Chronomaly on the other hand, I don't know if they will ever show up, or if they already have." Klive flashed one of xyr own cards in response, Chronomaly Crystal Chrononaut. "Anyway, i'm off. I guess we'll talk tomorrow." Klive said, bidding farewell to Arial as xe left to go to xyr own home and think on what had happened today.

btw Klive won't push with Arial, xe's just kinda trying to be, like, there.

[beach group] Klive would have left Arial alone before all this, Lord only knows how many times he wished some people actually would have left xem alone when xe asked, but as xe had recently found there was an advantage to being with people. That and even Klive could pick up on her tone. You don't leave people alone with their thoughts when they spoke like that. "To quote an old friend, people never know when they should and shouldn't be alone." Klive said as xe walked up to stand next to Arial. "I don't dare say i'm used to any kind of social interaction, let alone this, but maybe talking would help more than solitude?"

YAHARR! 'ERE WE HAVE THE PIRATE OF THE MAELSTROM!

Chim, no. Azery? An antagonist? Sure, he's annoying but not Evil...

{Beach Group} An archaeologist. Now this was Klives ballcourt. An Archaeologist xe could at least hold an informed conversation with. Xe had to refrain from chasing down the almost infuriatingly unresponsive Lisa. Xe could understand of not wanting to speak, xe really could, but was it really this annoying? "Please tell me the rest of you got that. Rene, we may have a lead to verify that ridiculous shadow game theory...." Klive said to the group behind xem as xe watched Lisa go. Of course Klive hadn't noticed Arial or Deans arrival. xe was more focused on Lisa at the time. If one of them spoke up now he most definitely would be surprised....

Hehe...he You know nothing friend. Your journey across the gently cruel land of Feels shall be a trial and an experience you will never forget.

I'm liking the General gy, even if he is forgettable enough that I can't remember his name. He's being put forward as that badass superior character that is suposed to be leagues stronger and smarter than the protagonist, and as far as we can tell he is, but it was the moment when the purple haired chick (Liking her too) told him he had to kep his promise that he was shocked. He wasn't expecting to have to keep that promise. It show he's fallible, unlike so many characters in that role are shown. It's nice. Fate was largely backstory and hype for next episode, Berserker Vs Gilgamesh. Gunslinger stratos is quickly dropping imo. Just another meh adaptation with forgettable characters so far. DxD, le sigh. I'm too stubborn to stop watching this.The women help doe Also, I finished Shigatsu wa kimi no uso.

And yet it's always there for some reason...

Azery always has b00ty on the mind...

((Prefacer: Jerry is kinda homophobic, though he wouldn't admit it. That said, he uses several slurs for homosexual people for terms to offend people. He'll grow out of it eventually but for now, be warned)) Part I lost count, I'm smart. I sighed and frowned at Liz's, uh, eccentric tale. What the fuck was I meant to make of that? That didn't even sound like something out of a movie. If it wasn't for him sitting in my kitchen right now, I wouldn't have believed there was a bikini-clad clown in the world let alone apparently attacking my sibling, who did the ever so lovely job of filling you al in. I stood up and looked through the window. My parents were sitting with their backs to me, probably chatting about some inane babble or bitching about how Dad hadn't gotten that pay raise he oh so dearly deserved. Our visitors on the other hand were looking directly at me. With smiles on their faces too, although the sly smirk on "Lookers" face as Liz dubbed him was a stark contrast to the clowns manic grin. At least he was sticking to the part. What the hell was with these cocksmokers? Did they think I'd take kindly to them? Offer them some generous hospitality? Lemme tell you, Jerry Caloca (Fuck off, it was the quickest surname I could think of) has never been accused of being generous. I turned to look at Liz, making sure my face was all stiff and rigid. Strong. "Ok, what we're going to do is wait for our parents to leave. If they can't perceive you or those asshats it'll be easier to deal with the situation when they are gone. I'll be more free to talk without being accused of seeing a drug-induced hallucination" I wish that was a joke but one time when I was like 14 my dad did sit me down for a "Chat" where he indirectly accused me of such activities. Fun times. Liz certainly looked anxious. I didn't blame her, it felt skeevy, having to skirt around mum and dad. Parents are more oft than not some of the scariest and most comforting authority figures you'll ever have in your life. Not to be fucked with. Unless you're being a rebel. Me and Liz had never been like that though, so it's a moot point. Back to topic! So, Liz and I went back inside, I almost forgot to leave the door open a little longer than normal to let her through and Liz almost got a door to the face. With that great start to discussions, Liz relayed to the pair that we would wit for a while before any discussion opened up. The two nodded along quite reasonably. Kind of good sign. Reasonable was almost always a good sign. Unless you're talking to a psychopath. Then reasonable can get unnerving. Some 45 minutes later my parents were ready and off to work, though Dad did force his semi-occasional suggestions to get out of the house down my throat again. This time he even gave me a straight up application form, like I was even incapable of getting one of those! I had just went out for an interview yesterday too for christs sake... Once the wedded duo had left, I kicked the discussion off as I sat down at the table again, opposing the two whilst my sister shifted to sit beside me. Yeah, sibling unity! Ok, that cheesy line caught me a whack to the head by Liz just now "Hi, hello, why is my sister immaterial?" This brought a cackle out of Mr Clown. "What, no ''who are you people, why are you here?'' This one is rather blunt, right, Lin?" His partner, Lin, shared his amusement to an extent. Fuck, if they had stayed amused for much longer I was gonna end up running out of decent words. I don't like repeating myself. That includes when a question is blown off. "Glad to see you find me interesting. Maybe you could repay me with an answer. A straight one too, funny man." I glared at the two of them, hoping to give off the ideal pissed off older brother vibe. That's what I think I was trying at least. That wiped the smirks off their faces. "I suppose you're right. One action must be repaid, one way or another." Lin said in a deep, masculine voice. Yeah, that meant he'd be getting an ass-kicking if what Liz told me was half-true. Hopefully the false half was him being competent in a fight. "We have nullified your sisters existence temporarily. That's what that monocle is for. A lovely little device of my design. It's a very effective way to deal with witnesses. Can't tell anyone what has happened if no one knows you were ever anywhere." He grinned, quite happy with his mind-blowing little explanation. Hopefully I didn't give off more amazement than surprise. I would have put it away as simple bullshit, who the fuck has ever heard of Exist-away Eyewear? But it was hard to not remember that my parents had acted exactly like that was the case. Plus I kinda wanted it to exist so I could snag one for myself. To use on someone else. As I just informed Liz, I do not think I would look dashing in a monocle. Anyway, this guys explanation left one very obvious question. "Ok, i'll bite. Why can I acknowledge Lizs existence?" I hate asking honest questions sometimes. It's a straight request for someone to tell you something. It gives the other person leverage. Needing something always puts you in that position even if most people are wonderfully nice enough not to even consider it. This Jackass was not one of those people. "Well, isn't that quite the question. I'll offer you an answer in exchange from one from you." This guy was grinnign way too hard. Like a fucking shark about to bite into its prey. "Deal" I answered without thinking too hard about it. Now the Clown cackled again. "Okay, what the fuck is so funny now?" I snapped at the fucker. Fuck. I hope you aren't an impressionable kid reading this... Lin sat back and grinned. "As we thought, you have no clue." He turned and looked at the clown, making a face as though he was really conflicted about his situation. "Whatever am I to do with this man?" I decided I didn't like these people. "Care to explain?" I nearly growled. I didn't dare glance at Liz, she'd either be giggling at me or looking terrified. I wasn't sure I could handle either of those. "Never allow such freedom for a Fae, Stonebearer" Definitely didn't like these guys

If Zoro did stick around, you'd get harassed by Brett and co. They still don't like any Zoruas being with people they don't explicitly approve of.
