[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Pokekitty2]

Spoiler

The wild looking researcher pauses at that and, now that you notice, loosen their grip on the front desk with a notable 'SNAP!' coming from the wood as she did so. Slowly, she turns around, much to the relief of the attendant, and stares down your poor beleaguered aide with crossed arms and a blank but menacing expression.

"What?"

As Randy was sweating up a new storm, you begin to to feel that something was off about this person. Or rather, you couldn't feel anything at all coming from them. Like, nothing. It was akin to interacting with a Dark Type, a particularly powerful Psychic, Fairy, or sufficiently old and/or talented regular Mon or Pseudo, or one of those rare Mons that have atypical thought and emotion patterns. That is decidedly Strange.

Sylvia gives Randy a good, long look, and then seems to sigh. She hops up onto the counter to get more level with the Professor.
Interaction goal: calm the Professor down. Silvia doesn’t know quite how the professor will react, and telling someone “calm down” never helps, so:
Procedure: surprise the professor with a simple question to try and force a “restart”.

Sylvia looks back at Randy, who’s staring blankly at the Professor. Then she turns to the professor.
>>Please pardon my partner here. He finds you attractive. I have a question, if I may - what is a Paradox?
