[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

AHHHHHHH THE STAIRS, THE STAAAAIRS, they're real and they're buuurning in Kee's eyes, Octavia chirps and follows Karen just as eagerly, the sparkly faeeveelution's caretaker does so too and even offers a hand to Rui.

Kee widely waves as Lucas, Ran and Kogeki are teleported to them with magic with the power of the Explorers Badge!~ "Oh hi, nice t'see ya, how s'ccessful were y'all in pursuin' that strange Steelix?~ The fact that ya're HERE proofs that ya weren't eaten whole by it, yayyy!~

Original Post

(...) Upon reuniting with Kee and the rest of his mini-group, Ran gives the ladies a once over to see if they're fine, before looking over to give the colorful musician a downright devious smirk.

"Looks like my faith in ya was right, Kee. Took mighty fine care of the ladies, and showed them a good time while exploring. An Outstanding performance, but what else could I expect from a charming and compassionate musician like yourself?"

The lewd innuendo continues, and boy oh boy is Ran and Diam is enjoying, judging from their grins and the later's cackles. Paula reaction I'm not too sure about, but maybe she blushes from it or doesn't get it at all? (...)

Aaaaand Kee's jolly and non-chalant mood melts away like a Vanillite underneath the sunbeams summoned by Drought Ability in a desert full of nothing but sand, rocks and sand again, one can literally watch how he freezes upon Ran's comment, then how his smile fades away, and finally how a massive blush that may not be too healthy makes its way up to his face, it bites itself horribly with his dirty-blonde hair.

A moment later, Kee gives that blacksmith with the guts to embarass him that much by exploiting a sensitive nerve of his in cold blood a light punch at his shoulder. "RAAAAAAAAN, stahp to utter such bullshit, please just STAAAHP; yes I DID take 'mighty fine care' of 'em but c'rtainly NOT in tha gross lewd way ya're thinkin', nooooope ! I didn't do anything, I DIDN'T, I don't want nor wouldnt want, I DOOOON'T !!"

He needs a few moments to calm down, and Octavia helps him greatly in doing so as she purrs and paws and nudges him with the tips of her ribbons.

His blush hasn't really decreased as he DARES to glance at Ran and NOT give him a pouting look complete with crossed arms and ecerything, instead he seems to take quite an effrto to sound and give himself normal. Or at normal as possible. "*couuugh* 'Kaaaaay, do listen Ran, there's something I thought you could.... Well, not really 'make good use of', but moar like 'find interesting and use to craft somethin' nice outta it'?~ Yes that IS a hidden request or question whether ya could." Rummaging a bit in his stuff Kee eventually reveals those shed skins of Dragonair and Dratini to him. "That's quite tha rare stuff, skin a Dragonair 'n a Dratini shed. Soooo, does ya'r skill 'n vaaaaluable~ experience allow it for ya to make somethin' cool or practival outta it?~~ Somethin' that'd be useful in battle or would recoive Orpheus would be best."



Lucas's opening that they'll be at SPEAR PILLAR upon taking that one fateful step outside this cave and into the are of the summit, is met by Kee with both strong and daring eager stemming from him craving answers, as well as concealed worry about what may or may not await them ahead.

When Lucas mentions those...last minute preparations, the colorful musician almost breaks his neck upon turning his head to staaare at the young Champ. "Wait a moment Lucas, ya're sayin' that YOU PEOPLE are o-kay with going outta there into tha literally unknown IN A LITTLE, are yar Pokemon 'n everythin' fine? Cuz, uhhhh, Karen 'n me had quite tha fight with a shadowy Dragonair 'n a bunch of Dratini, and our Pokemon are.... Well, my dear ones would do well with some Heal Pulses or similar, but dear Karen here -*he throws a worried glance at her*- suffered by seein' two of her loyal 'Mon faintin', ya see? In tha interest of having full arsenal of battle-ready Pokemon 'n no drawbacks by throwing a ton of Potions at 'em, couldn't we, well... rest at first 'n then move on?"


(Mechanically-wise I'd prefer that to fully heal Astoria (@5/8HP), Draven (@3/6HP) and optimaly Orpheus (@10/12HP), as well as reset the counter for Potions used on them to 0 again. I could certainly heal them up with more Potions on them, but that'd 1. further decrease the efficiency of Potions on them and 2. uses up useful Healing Items that may turn out life-savers during whatever awaits us at Spear Pillar. There's also the option to heal them with Heal Pulses from Kogeki of course, if he's okay with that, but it doesn't solve my issue with Potion Efficiency.)
