[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

Congrats on a long-awaited moment! I have something else that needs to happen when the group reunites. Shiva gets 4XP for a marvelous description of a very long awaited scene. Hope it was worth it!

Yes it is and was worth it, thanks! ^o^♡
The earliest point Shiva will reunite with the others is the morning of the next in-game Day.

The Elanor sunset is as picturesque as you could possibly imagine. All the flowers slowly turn their faces toward the sun as it sinks, then curl up a little and droop down for the night. While they're open, the orange light reflects off the glossy petals  of the Elanor flower. White daisies take on every shifting color of the sunset.

At the climax of the sunset, Cottonee, in tune with nature, alights on the Sunstone in Shiva's hands. She glows the same changing color of the sunpainted sky, instead of the expected green. Shiva, too, is enveloped in the light streaming from her faithful startermon.

As Cottonee's light swells, and develops horns and a little stubby body, her cotton expands as well. It is the first thing to protrude from the light, and before her new form can be revealed, it suddenly kersplodes in a burst of little floating seeds right in Shiva's face! This mischief causes you to sputter a bit and you almost miss the moment when WHIMSICOTT floats down to land in your lap. Whimsicott looks pleased to have somewhat ruined this dramatic moment with a prank she couldn't have performed as a Cottonee.

Whimsicott's fluff is so voluminous that from your sitting position you can bury your face in her fluff and stay warm even as it grows dark.

Shiva's amazed every single time about how the various flowers response to the sun. Especially how these beautiful Elanor Flowers do! It's not hard for her to understand that they're something very special, they seem to only grow around here. She can't help but to wonder whether they're only meant for decoration or whether they hold any useful capabilities - even if they don't, she can always work them into craftings!~


Over her new and ultra-fluffy wad of cotton's prank Shiva can only chuckle joyfully as she draws a leafy-green handkerchief to wipe remaining seeds from her glasses. After having put them back on, she plucks Whimsicott from her lap to envelop her into a tiiight embrace, inclusive nuzzling her now immensive amount of cotton. "You're already enjoying your fullily awakened fae nature, dearest one, how cute! Oh, may the others, your foes and even the whole word be prepared for your mischief and playful mess caused from now on...!~" A sly smile of hers expresses that she looks forward to explore this aspect of her most favorite companion, and she's well aware that not even she herself or her other Pokemon are safe! Still Shiva doesn't doubt that she is able to control her Whimsi from accidently overdoing it.

For a few minutes she will rest here on a branch of the cherry tree, bushy green foliage all around her, with her face affectionately buried in Whimsi's volumonous fluff. Then, as the sun has sunken completely and darkness has fully fallen over the land, Shiva rises up and gives her now finally evolved startermon a challenging look. ( ÒωÓ) "Alright, C... I mean, WHIMSICOTT!! With you now having reached your Final Stage, new skill should have been set loose as well, if I can believe the reports of various Pokemon Professors, you now should have developed a unique and almost psychic power that allows you to create and control wind currents at will. As a Cottonee, you were at mercy of 'em and easiely carried away. ....Let us test them out right away!" Shiva gets a firmer grip on the branch she's sitting on, just in case. "Try to blow away a swirl of leaves from the tree we're in, please send a greeting to sunken sun!"
