[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

I guess I don't have anything notably to add, Terra's reaction on seeing her mount on Genie is a priceless one for Shiva that doesn't fail to make her laugh joyfully and dare to lean a bit closer into Genie as a 'thank-you'. Successful prank, Aww! When he gave the duo the smile and nod, she was back on concentrating on the flight again and missed it.

I'd say Genie would trill out a 'Pleasure's all mine~!' in response to Shiva's thanks, and simply regally nod/pose to them once they suplicate themselves to her again later on. She love the attention she's getting, so don't stop giving it to her!

Eventually they all landed softly, and Shiva would bow to the dragoness once more in respect and to express that she greatly enjoyed it, soon followed by voicing how she looks forward to play more with her [Genie] at some other time. *holds back a knowing and telling smile*. If Terra's okay with it, she accompanies him back to the Center after all their Pokemon and belongings are gathered with Shiva keeping Raphael [allowed to enjoy some more flying]  and the Eevee Family out along the way. Umbreon probably enjoys the dusk and incoming darkness which Shiva enjoys how making sure that they keep close by her. As a goodnight and thanks for letting him get to know Genie tonight the mountain of a man receives a kind hug from the fae enthusiast. :>

(I'm pretty tired, might play a little less here today and/or turn in for the night earlier.)

Terra naturally doesn't mind having the Fairy Trainer's company back to civilization, as while their prank/antics with Genie were/could be considered somewhat hair-raising and anxiety/stress inducing, he's fairly chill and accepting of it once he comes to grips with the situation. As for the hug, he reacts with one part awkwardness, one part discomfort at it, as he's not too use to that form of affection from others, but he does hesitantly pat her on the back a couple of times to show its fine. That should be all for my chara this/that day!

Heart wakes up just in time to go to bed!

The sound of heavy rain may wake you early in the night, but it has transitioned to a calming patter by early morning. It stays that way.

It is now Day 69.

A loud noise outside wakes you all up at approximately the same time - there are some daredevil acrobats loudly performing in the rain, not far outside this Pokemon Center.

As you all meet up for breakfast or whatever, you experience another lurch. As it happens, Heart is passing Terra some food right as it happens - and Terra experiences his first lurch!

During the lurch, you're all seeing the Pokemon Center - still with its Healing Machine and long underground hallways - but the Nurse is suddenly not pink-haired and is dressed in heavy, unfashionable canvas clothing. Then the lurch is over as suddenly as it began.

The simple monk rest went undisturbed during the night, as his rough and aesthetic lifestyle in the wilds well inured him to the racket of torrential downpours,  but even he couldn't tune out the early wake up call from those performers, something which he was.....less than pleased about when he learned the source of it somehow. 

'Mrrrrrrn.....why are their performers making so much noise in the morning outside of Pokemon Center, and in such bad weather too? *Frowns* Not very polite for everyone sleeping here. Unsafe too, if they are not careful. Hrrrrn.....Will have to talk with them later about this....'

After making that grumpy resolution, Terra did his morning routine and got quickly prepared (Not much to pack with him!) to head out on the road/Route from Cress to Teazil Vally, part of which entailed an trip to the PC to arrange his party in the following line-up before breakfast: Shiranui, Anubi, Lapis Lazuli, Genie, Melly, and Tommy. The reason his blue bomber and tattered tomcat making the cut over Michael and Basteele simply because he wanted to spend more time bonding/training with them on the trip, and figured that the martial mush. and bold bombshell could be benched for a little while. Duskull nor his Egg were being brought along for obvious/practical reasons, as managing an unruly Ghost and/or having a vulnerable unborn infant in his party on the trail was just begging for trouble! 

(Unless the Egg is suppose to hatch on this day, in which case, that'll have to be dealt with accordingly)

Not really much to add for Nathan overnight/when he wakes up.  Packs up what stuff he has on him and in the room and gets ready to go!

Of course, that lurch does a great job of interrupting breakfast.  Nathan almost feels like he's going to hurl thanks to that spectacular timing.  Just trying to enjoy his breakfast, and then this happens mid-meal.  Lovely.

"...*blurgh*...okay...that was...unpleasant...did you guys all...*blurgh*...?"  He can't quite finish the question, but everyone should know what he wants to ask.

Compared to the boy and the collector's reaction to the Lurch, Terra's was much more subdued. When the rustic nurse suddenly materialized to him/the group and then promptly disappeared moments later, he paused in eating his bowl of oatmeal to blink Noctowlishly at it/her and then its/her passing.....before he ended up shrugging it off and continued his meal without qualm/an upset stomach (his constitution is much to high/fortified for that!). 

It was certainly an odd sight, but it was one that didn't phase the rugged wanderer all that much, given what he's learned second hand about the fantastical phenomena before hand. Plus, after learning all he has about the group's Encounters with the 'supernatural' /Legendary (personally and painfully so, in the later category!), he wasn't about to be bothered about in-explicit glimpses/contact through time and space if it wasn't a pressing, dangerous concern and/or if nothing could be done about it. Simple as that, really.

He probably wouldn't had said anything about it were it not for Nathan's own sickened inquiry, which caused him to sharply look over to them in worry, until he slowly nodded back. 

"If you are talking about that.....weird feeling and sight, then yes. If not, then no. *Tone becomes apprehensive* ....Are you okay, Nathan? Did....it make you ill or sick? Need something to make you feel better, or settle your stomach? Like water, or a soft fizzy drink?"
