[Game] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure: Celadon City Vandel

"Good.  Exactly what I'd expect to see.  As I said though, last resort.  I'd rather not put anyone in unnecessary danger.  Thank you, Raijin.  That's all I really needed from you for now.  Glad to hear you're doing okay.  Get some rest and be ready for tomorrow."

Time to recall Raijin.

Reiner just sits in the room for a moment afterwards, stroking Ridia as she's napping.  Thinking.

...well, suppose he better talk with Yang too before turning in for the night.

Raijin was returned with no complication whatsoever, and Yang was soon after released in their place, as his immense size filled the room and made it seem all the smaller to you from where you were sitting. He tensed once he got his bearings, looking around the room and the battle arena with suspicion, as if expecting some form of shenanigans, before they relaxed and coiled up once they knew all was calm and safe. Staring down at you now with his regal aloofness that still somehow seemed WARM to you, the regal reptile awaited your response for summoning them....

"Ah, good.  Just wanted to check on ya after...earlier.  Call me needlessly paranoid, but...after trying to keep Kingdra under control for the past few years and...earlier today, I get a little worried whenever a Dragon loses its temper."

Reiner closes his eyes.

"...I have to admit, you do a far better job of controlling yourself than most Dragons.  That alone is very commendable.  And it's also...comforting in a way, I suppose.  I can better trust you, but more importantly...I can trust myself a little more, too.  So...thank you, Yang."

...and then he opens them and looks at Yang.

"...of course, if Arial makes that mistake again, we won't be so lenient with him the next time, yes?"

"...of course, if Arial makes that mistake again, we won't be so lenient with him the next time, yes?"

Yang gave a long, sinuous and serpentine shrug at your first comment, as he knew full well the reputation of how FIERCE and SAVAGE Dragon types could be when incited to violence (Even a Goodra is pretty intimidating when pissed off!), and how well earned it was. It always pays to be cautious, and ever vigilant for all manner of things.

Another shrug was issued for your next response, followed by an a upwards, aloof, and elitist tilt of his head with eyes closed. He was The Ultimate Dragon type, second only to the Legendary and Mythical Dragons , and was EXTREMELY sure of his own power, majesty, and dominance. As a result, he was more or less content and at peace with himself, and felt no desire towards grandious displays or egregiously raging out like his other lesser kin. Perhaps he was far more egotistical and prideful as a result, but he handled those traits with such aplomb and serenity that it seemed NATURAL and RIGHT for him to be that way. Wow....

Still, the sparkling serpent did crane his head down to look you in the eyes, his own radiating a sense of RESPECT and GRATITUDE. You EARNED his Loyalty with your mastery and skill, and as such had complete faith you could have handled him and any other Dragon type given enough time and/or caution on your part. As such, Yang felt no thanks were necessary.....though he appreciated them just like most anyone else.

Your last comment, however, made the The Ultimate Dragon's eyes go hard as diamonds and whole posture stiffen with barely leashed IRRITATION, before he solemnly nodded his head and forced himself to loosen up. If that madman brought his impudent attitude and reckless abandon with Fairy/Nuclear type moves towards him AGAIN, he wasn't going to show ANY of his regal tolerance or restraint with him or his Pokémon. Yikes!

"I've lectured Arial on that mistake of his, and unless he wants to be on the wrong end of a dragon's true wrath, he would do well to follow them.  Fortunately, I seem to have gotten the message across...now we'll have to wait and see if the lesson has stuck.  Arial is fortunate Kingdra wasn't out when he made those comments"

...

"...we're gonna be facing large numbers of Nuclear pokemon tomorrow.  Between you and your fellow Dragon types and the various Steel types I also happen to have, I'm hopeful that we won't be suffering too much.  I'm expecting we'll be experiencing some form of trouble regardless, though.  I'll be counting on you, Yang.  Whatever's in that research facility, it likely won't be friendly, so be prepared.  Now then...get some well deserved rest.  You've done a spectacular job today."

Alright, that's pretty much everything I wished to cover in the training room.  Off to the totally not burned to a crisp room we go to see what that room looks like.

Yang lets out a huff at the news that Arial 'learned his lesson' , as he didn't believe for a second it wasn't going to be THAT easy with such an unruly FOOL like him, but settles down and gives a nod of his head. If they truly learnt proper decorum and behavior for a subordinate in the last battle, he would be willing to overlook his past transgressions, but if he didn't.....well, they'll soon know what a Dragon's true OUTRAGE looks like instead.

He was a bit disdainful at the prospect of facing MORE rouge Nuclear Pokémon after being flash fried by Sekmet, but accepted your decree with typical calmness. Nasty and horrendous as they were, those fiendish MONSTERS would be the perfect targets to demonstrate his DRACONIC MIGHT without reservation, as their was no need to hold back or restrain his powerful moves against them....

Once you've fully updated and settled things with the regal reptile, you returned him and exited the Training Room, making your way towards the new and hopefully NOT char broiled bedroom. It took several minutes of navigating the twisty halls of the penthouse suit, but eventually you found it, with a note and key taped to the door that simply said: "Your room and key, Mr. Arendse. From: Mr. Mime"

Entering the room.....



….and found a yet another luxurious and taste fully decorated suite, with chocolate and golden colors and hardwood being the main design features of this room. The bathroom was were it should be, and it was fully decked out with all the amenities you expect a world class, filthy rich hotel would have; heck, the tub doubled as a jacuzzi and scented oil bath when needed! There was also a book case stocked with as many titles of fiction/non-fiction you could recognize/name on the top of your head, and a sophisticated projecter on the top of the room that, when active, projected stunning crisp and high definition television images, among other things! Additionally, though you wouldn't know it, everything in here was FAR more durable and fireproof than your last room, which means less damage if Kyubi were to throw a temper tantrum!

Seems that Mr. Mime and the hidden staff went all out to make your new room the best it possibly could be....perhaps as a comforting gesture to how rough you've had it lately? Who knows?

There is one last thing you notice about the room: namely, Kyubi wasn't in here. You had no way of knowing WHERE she could be either, but then you noticed the silver bell that would summon a maid/butler that could sort that problem out 'easily'. What to do...what to do...

...well, it's certainly a nice room...

*sigh*

Reiner picks up the bell.  Better inquire about where Kyubi is...

*ring ring*

*ring ring*

Moments after ringing the bell, a knock was heard at the door, before Mr. Mime let himself into the room and walked right up to and bowed.

"Mr. Arendse, you rang? What is it that I can do for you, sir?"

When you asked for Kyubi's whereabouts, the psychic butler's expression briefly transforms into a worried grimace, before it smooth itself out as he let out a low *Sigh* .

"Ms. Sterling is currently at the balcony, doing some stargazing to....becalm her nerves. She said that she didn't wished to be disturbed, and that she'll turn in with you when she grows tired. Would you like me to send her a message regardless, or is there something else you might want done, sir?"

"No, that's fine.  Thank you.  I just wanted to make sure Kyubi was doing okay after...earlier.  If I disturbed you at all, my apologies for that."

-------------------------------

After Mr. Mime leaves, there really isn't much elsefor Reiner to do today.  He's just ready to simply lay on the bed and get what sleep he can.  He'll probably wake up again when Kyubi (or someone else) enters the room (or knocks or something), though.  After that Confusing scene earlier, he's a little on edge...

"Your are welcome, sir. After...today, its very reasonable to be concerned with Ms. Sterling's state, but rest assured she is fine now. She was known to have.....quite the temper and moods most fae before her....change, so its not unlike it was unexpected.....well, at least for me, sir. As for disturbing me, I am always ready to head your commands, so please do not worry. Good night, Mr. Arendse...."

Saying that, the bulter departs, leaving you to get tucked up and under the covers and slowly drift off to sleep, the lights flickering off automatically and staying that way for the rest of the night. Its been a LONG day, and honestly you'd sleep more than two if you didn't have several IMPORTANT plans that needed....delicate care. Oh, what an interesting life you lead....

Alert Roll: INS (3) + Survival (3) + Alert (3) = 9D6 Dice, Need 2 Successes due to being on edge/highly stressed!
(6)(3)(2)(1)(4)(1)(2)(3)(5) 2 Successes!

In the middle of the night, you are BARELY roused from your deep slumber by a faint *creaking* noise. Subtle turning your head towards the source, you find the sight of Kyubi in what looked to be a.....dark colored kimono? (Can't tell what color it is in the dark!) sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at you with what feels to be drowsiness and wistful love/affection and looking ready to slip under the covers right beside you. 

Huh...

Reiner doesn't sit up or anything. He's just fine with staying right where he is for now.

"...feeling better?"
