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

[Lord Windos]

Besides, I was thinking about buying some Gourmet Food for 150$ in the next town for Azurill to enjoy... Then I remembered those St. John's Wort capsules from the pharmacy in Corsage. Then my weird mind got the idea of why not mix some of these meds into the Gourmet Food, and THEN serve it to Azu... Since Shiva in-character is into herbology, it's not that unreasonable that she might get that idea. Question would be though, Iron, would it have an increased effect on Azu's fragile confidence and happiness? Would it have an effect at all, even if it'd be just placebo effect? Or are these meds for people, worst case scenary, toxic for the kind of Azurill?

Aww, Shiva is contemplating her first morally questionable act, and its drugging her Pokémon, a highly deviant act at that! Team Rocket might have a use for you yet....and Unfettered Ventus would be so proud of you!

Hey, it's just St. John's Wort, nothing more than a plant extract, she isn't 'drugging' poor blue mouse... :C

A rose by any other name is just as sweet, my love, but the same can be said of medicinal items. Plant extracts, spices, folk remedies, and various plants and animal parts have been the basis of medicine for almost all of human history, so using St. John's Wort does constitute a 'drug' in the most literal sense of the term. Rationalizing it as something else is a wonderful skill for a Team Rocket grunt to have, though, so keep on doing it !

Oh, she will NOT hate Nathan himself for catching the dog if he explanis his reasons, even if she'll struggle to follow his points/stay stubborn in her point of view. She'll nevertheless let him have it, but she's highly relucant in helping him on anything concerning Orthros, even if he has become a loyal team member one day. Her viewpoint won't change, too strong wasthe impact of the outcome that she was fascinated by something that has proven bad for her and lured an amount of danger and damage onto her by that. Sorry for that, gotta stay in-character.

Seeing that Ventus shares her point of view on the Delta Houndour and, given the happenings in creepy dreamworld, might wish to protect her from it, she'll be happy to jump on that.

Kirlia does not devote much time to Shiva now, despite the circumstance of his evolution.  So Shiva can only guess what he's thinking.

Alright, it's indeed an issue Nathan has to clear with himself then.

Azurill doesn't have depression, she has sadness. So it wouldn't help, but it wouldn't hurt in small doses.

[Lord Windos]

So Shiva needs to get so uppers for Azuirill then? Someone get me a prescription for a little blue mouse!!!

Joking aside, how was work today, Iron? See anything particularly interesting or wonderful, or did you happen to trip of more thorns and garbage?

Nathan gets dibs on Miller! Nobody objects to that, right?

Nope! I want to tackle the Heatmor then, since its a Unovain Pokémon, I want to see what Item it has, and it would be more great Practice for Wobbuffet! I think Shiva would love getting to know a Skald anyway, since I'm well aware of what they are. Nice addition there, mate!

Not to mention the Fortune Hunter was looking for someone who would know how to repair an instrument, iirc.  

This set of encounters seems very purposeful...

Well, that just means that Iron has something in store for all our characters in the short term, and who knows what else in the future? I'm eager to see what is in store myself, hehehe!

Every now and then for the next couple days, Kyuu suddenly looks startled and pulls it out to stare at it with interest.

THIS. <3 Just...cute... Running Gag... He'll unwillingly cheer up his owner by that. Does the pink Apricon nut have any effect I should note, or is it purely decorative indeed?

Skald Elysia is mine.

Hehehe, I knew it! With the Fortune Teller's instrument being broken, and them a teller of songs and epic stories, they would fit Shiva's mystical interests to a tee! Meanwhile, Ventus is going to prevent a forest fire from occurring, as he doesn't not want the lovely forest to become a lovely forest fire.
