[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

Spoiler

Eventually, you dig and wander until you reach a good place to camp a few miles past the underground lake.

The following all regain 1 HP at this point:
- Solosis 
- Swiftfire
- Ditto
- Theo
- Haunter
- Aspis
- Malphena
- Heart
- Tropius
- Azu
- Lucifer
- Rose

Perfect!  Time for everyone to wash up as appropriate to mask their scents from those bugs, assuming the water is clean enough for it.

For Nathan, this downtime also means checking on Calam and Lucifer to make sure they're doing okay.  He has more time to do so now that there's no need immediate need to flee and stay on the move.

And he also asks Ventus for help when doing so.  And he has something to say to the orange haired researcher as well... @Lord Windos

"...thank you for helping back there, Ven...I...don't think I would have managed to treat them without your help...you were definitely right about lightning strikes being very similar to burns...heh...so weird to think about...a burn that could even scorch a Fire type..."

Kirlia goes over to Calam and sits next to him to keep him company.  They're both rather tired after that harrowing experience.  Calam gives the Psychic type an intrigued glance.  He's not really surprised that Ralts evolved, though he is just a tad disappointed that he missed it happening again...

Nathan smiles at the scene.  "...yeah, you missed his evolution, unfortunately.  Good news, though: I don't think you'll have to miss when he evolves again.  Kirlia wants to wait a little bit before we evolve him into a Gallade.  I'm certain he'll make a fine swordsman...he'll be Night Slashing with the best of 'em (meaning Calam, obviously) soon enough."

Kirlia also looks at Lucifer and gives him a genuinely grateful bow.  No longer does he have any doubts and dislikes about the bat pokemon.  The days when he got upset about Lucifer looking at that Clamperl Pearl funny are long gone now...

In fact, despite how tired he is, Kirlia's going to try to use a few Heal Pulses as thanks to help patch up Calam, Lucifer, and Ventus.  Just as a little thank you for everything they did.  And because they're also the three that got roughed up the most out of everyone during the course of that battle.

Heal Pulse!
Accuracy: 5 + 3 + 3 - 3 Exhaustion = 8 D6
Heal Pool: 3 D6 for Calam, 4 D6 for Lucifer, and 5 D6 for Ventus!

Oh, and as for Solosis, Herolune Ditto is standing guard over it currently.  Despite the 'type disadvantage', Herolune Ditto is still faaaarrr stronger than the little blob with only 1 HP remaining.  Just doing his job!

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

So, I don't think anybody's said anything concerning this yet.  Who's doing the night watch tonight?  I think Nathan (and Herolune Ditto, for obvious reasons) would probably want to take one tonight.

Calam gives Kirlia a quick nuzzle or boop, but he doesn't get surprised in any way.

The wounded Pokemon are doing fine. Ventus' predictions seem accurate - they'll be 100% healed in a week. They'll be capable of fighting tomorrow if they have to, with various levels of exhaustion. 

Thanks to Nathan's level of training, Kirlia is able to succeed confidently where a lesser trainer's Pokemon would fail.
(5)(1)(6)(4)(4)(4)(2)(3); (3)(2)(6) Calam gains 1hp
He just has to take a quick break in between each Pulse.
(2)(3)(3)(4)(4)(6)(6)(3); (6)(1)(3)(5) Lucifer gains 2hp
(5)(4)(6)(3)(2)(1)(4)(6); (5)(6)(5) VentusDitto gains 3 hp.
