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

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Unfortunately we others have no idea in-chara about that given task of yours as you never really shared and I don't want to meta-game that, and I think even if it'll be explained now it won't convince Shiva enough to head down the other stairs into Almanac's lower basement. Both me and Shiva would suggest that Dizzalam is handed the USB Drivers and take care of them, but it's Gamemaster's discretion whether he'd be smart enough to fulfill this task.

Means, I'd like to stick with my vote to head down directly into the assumed Scim's base, but it's tempting to break my chara's nature and agree to exploring what's down the other stairs either way. I don't really enjoy doing such a thing though. Maybe one of Spira's ghosts or any other Pokemon from us could sneak down the stairs and give us a hint what's down there to see whether it's worth going down at all?

Guess we now have to wait what Spirit and Mika would prefer as further discussing just between us two likely won't lead us anywhere, we both appear set on our choice.

OOC I wanna do exploring in the almanac basement, IC Spira wants to help accomplish what they went into the base to do and gtfo before something else bad happens. (Meaning two IC votes to head to the scim basement)

Dizzy doesn't even have hands lol. Even a human-shaped Pokemon like Gothitelle can't comprehend how to use human objects.

Shiva could ask Cottonee if she heard the hum of machinery (or some other constant sound electronics that are on 24/7 might make), or we could have a pokemon with particularly good hearing listen for the same.  Server rooms aren't exactly quiet, and underground server rooms are definitely a thing.  And if Almanac has a lot of secrets to hide on them, you can bet they probably hid the servers a well.

Nathan was vague on the details, but he did tell everyone to keep an eye out for the servers.

I vote to go ahead to save Oscars and the others. We dont have time to go in some hacking thing. Not to mentioned a meteor coming straigh to earth with possible virus-pokemon to summon. So either we split up to each follow the path, or going ahead with our original rescue mission.

Or Nathan or Heart one of them go alone to take care of that USB thing.

Dagny would be doing the hacking, to be clear.  All Nathan has to do is plug in the USBs and tell her to get started.  And once that's done, we could continue on our way.

Yeah, but like Phantom said, Nathan never talk at any moment about something of Dagny handle him the USB thing. Its one of these little things to be shared in character. So I with Shiva to continue our rescue mission and leave the task give to Nathan later.

Seems like the general desire is to not take any side-routes and head straight down the stairs leading to the assumed Scimitar Base.

Shiva could ask Cottonee if she heard the hum of machinery (or some other constant sound electronics that are on 24/7 might make), or we could have a pokemon with particularly good hearing listen for the same. Server rooms aren't exactly quiet, and underground server rooms are definitely a thing. And if Almanac has a lot of secrets to hide on them, you can bet they probably hid the servers a well.

That I can and will do, will type it up in-game real quick. Then we can decide further, if Nathan's task is it to only plug in the USB Drivers we others could possibly starts already to head down the other stairs, as he's fast enough to catch up pretty soon and plugging something in insn't something that usually takes long. However, I'd bet that IF there are servers, these are heavily protected.

How he ignored her words and silent best wishes isn't very helpful either and allures a gaze with a raised eyebrow from her, this natural fae enthusiast might never really understand this boy.

It doesn't mean Nathan fully ignored Shiva, Phantom.  He heard her.  The first thing he said was meant as a semi-response of sorts.

I didn't write anything out for Gallade in the post, but he would just give her a courteous, simple nod for both him and Nathan...even if he isn't really a fan of Shiva not particularly wanting to help with this.

Thanks for that, in hintsight I get what you mean. I've been just acting in-chara.
