[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Dragonstrike]

Do I read an Encounter Slot for bonding-time between us + our Pokemon? Whatever it is, I'm down with that~

I have kinda been stating that was what Nathan was planning to do since the end of day 15...I just didn't say I intended for it to involve everyone until now.

...because I had to ruin the surprise to save the encounter

The little angel was ecstatic to see their father after so many days coupped up in their Pokeball, so they whiled away the morning hours playing with him and simply enjoying their compan

Aww... Both to me and (likely even more) Shiva it's adorable to watch how he treats Raphael... Especially since it's a Fairy.

Except there's a near guaranteed chance that at least part of that scene will be retconed (to at least some small degree), so we'll have to see a variation of it instead.

Welp, you can still do that instead as an Encounter for Berry Search or Training while we're camping I believe, if flashbacking to it is no option. Which it indeed is not.

Well, the best laid plans often go afoul when they are put into motion, as they say. I'm considering just deleting my post right now and waiting on final word from Iron where this goes now. Do we continue the day as he laided out, post-poning the honey happiness celebration? Do we delay the day from changing and have the encounter smoothly inserted in its place? Do we just consign the encounter to a Flashback!, and just delay the new day from playing out until we finish it? All these are valid options, and we are stuck until Iron decide to step in on this and have final say. Essentially, our attempt to keep the game speedy ended up slowing it to the crawl as we deliberate over event. If that's not Ironic, then I don't have a high post count!

Haha, the irony... Copy your post somewhere before you delete it, so that you have it available if you need it~

Already did, my most sweetest love~ I hate when my hard work gets deleted without my notice, so I try to keep copies whenever possible.

While I did increase Nathan's survival, a Berry search is not going to yield much for him since it's still only 2.  And more training just defeats the entire purpose of what Nathan was aiming for: a day of hard work followed by some well deserved rest and thanks.

I've built up to this too much to give up on it entirely now!  And in the name of efficiency, it should happen on day 16.  No time to lose on 17 since we need to spend some of the day just traveling back there.

(Most sweetest love... Aww. <3) Sounds fair enough. As I said, I'd be fine to postpone my business in Corsage and be out camping until being back on 2 Will points then. Shiva might still get bored at some point, but if so, she'll likely just go for walks through the forest alongside her Pokemon or begin to tease Ventus again. That game he unwillingly started is so much fun to her - his reactions are so hilarious!

[Dragonstrike]

And Nathan's still going to hang out with everyone since he doesn't want to split the party either. While he wants to get back to Corsage ASAP, he doesn't want anyone going it alone right now!

...Valder's an exception though. Again. Hope he doesn't mind.

And if things stay uneventful enough as far as Absol and other wild pokemon go, that battle with Shiva might come before they even get back to town.
