[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

"Uh, he was here a while ago. I think he headed out for a battle."

Raphael and Michael gain 1Xp, giving their best effort. Raphael seems to be obeying just fine.

After some rousing training with his family members and almost running both of them into the ground utilizing Aron Mans level of training program (And making sure they were not about to pass out on him because of said training), Ventus reached into his bag and took out that Powerful Can of Lemonade that Nathan gave him. He stared at it for a few moments, suddenly feeling some of his energetic euthusiams leech away at re-realization of being at odd with the boy yet again, before he sighs and pops top of it, and start to drink the beverage!

'Oh dear me, this Lemonade IS positively rich, as the boy said it would be. ....Things are going to be quite uncomfortable between us for the time being, are they not? Given both his and Kirlia's threats against me this morning, I do not doubt that not only will my assistance be completely and wholeheartedly rejected, and will likely attempt to sabotage or hinder my efforts if and/or when I proceed to help them engage the Disaster Pokémon. Its also likely that he's already enlisted the aid of Shiva to get her to try and turn me from away from being his backup and support during the Running, banking on either her natural charm or her using the bond we share to undermine my determination in this endevour. *Sigh* Paranoid as that may sound, I must prepare for the possibility none of the less. I'll have to remain in disguise until, during, and after the Running, in order to ensure that Nathan does not continue to pester/hinder my own efforts to aid him, and avoid the Shiva entirely for the time. Hate me if they want, it is my duty to make sure that they are safe, protected, and in good health so long as I remain with them. I just hope they both can forgive me when this is all over....'

Once he finish his energizing drink and his Pokémon are no longer panting like Poocheyanas, the still disguised researcher recalled his Pokémon and made his way back into the town proper, only stopping to buy himself [b]a couple of Potions and a Great Ball, before heading into the Pokémon Center, carefully watching and repressing/closing off his mind so that neither Shiva, Nathan, or Kirlia would spot him. Time for the researcher to turn in for the night...

Order: Buy the request medical supplies and Great Ball, before heading into the Pokémon Center while still in full disguise and turn in for the day (If its approaching night/night time by now) , making extra pains to being unnoticeable by his peers. Until the Running is over and done with, assume that Ventus is constantly in disguise, distorting his voice whenever anyone in the group is within earshot of him, has his scent completely erased by disinfectant and ordor eaters, and his mind so closed of to the outside world that Kirlia can't get into it without REALLY trying (This subsequently means that he's going to be unable to use his empathy for the time being, so yeah...). He's taking zero chance with his self appointed task, so deploy cautionary measures!!!
