The art was astounding to look at. Gabrielle couldn't fathom how a person could create something so extraordinary. Surely it would take dedication and hard-work. Opening up the exhibit's pamphlet her eyes briefly skim throughout the passages containing information about the various displays.

A soft nudge causes her to look downwards, at violet her skunktank that sat besides her. "You also like the art?" Gabrielle asks with a grin giving her a gentle scratch. Violet responds with a content purr, stroking herself against Gabrielle's warm touch.

She looks back at the pamphlet, the most noticeable exhibit was named a "land before time" and it should straight ahead. Glancing towards that direction she notices quite the crowd which was expected.

Beckoning Violet to follow, the two find themselves in front of it. "Oh wow.." Gabby says quietly completely captivated. It was hard to describe, but why the painting has such a reputation was obvious when she saw it. "Well it is very different from all the other exhibits.

The crowd dissipates when word got out that the curator was going to have a lecture. Gabby wasn't interested in attending, wanting to look at other displays.

She walks towards the next one, past the employees fangirling about the curator and Locke Jamison, taking interest towards the off-limits area.

"Wanna go take a peak inside?" She suggests to her skunktank in a jokingly manner. Hoping that she is not overhead by an employee.

FIRST POST

SPARSE SUPERVISION makes infiltrating the closed off areas easy. behind the ropes of velvet barriers is an exhibit hall filled with glass panes. some refract distorted views while others reflect mirror images. no two sheets are identical, creating a maze that must be navigated in order to pass.

a silver plaque at the top of the room labels this exhibit as SHALOUR’S SCINTILLATION.

on the surface, almost every piece seems to either show a reflection or what’s on the other side. however, a few sheets show an image that fits neither.

upon closer examination, an observer will be able to discern the top-down view of two figures: luka chêne and paxton concordas. the glass shows a bird’s eye view of area, watching as the two descend down a staircase of darkness.

elsewhere, a set of eyes follow those that stumble their way through. it remains unseen and undetected, precarious in their stalking. they way they appear and reappear as needed is perfect, as if experienced.

deep within the maze, an unown-? lurks. it takes a moment to register that it’s a real pokemon and not part of the experience. however, once someone notices, it immediately flees, darting above the glass walls, escaping altogether.

the UNOWN-? cannot be scanned for THE UNOWN REPORT. it cannot be caught.

the first person to find their way out will their exit closed by a wall of glass. a sign above it labels in ‘unfinished’ but physical touch causes ripples to bound across its surface. whether it be voracious courage or a mere accident, those who dare to touch it again will them able to travel through this glass wall.

Gabby looks around again to make sure that there were no other employees. Sure enough, it seemed that most of them left to see the curator it was a lucky break for them. Nodding towards Vi, the pair slowly inch towards the off-limits area. Another voice made Gabby pause, her initial reaction was that it was an employee. However when the words of Yvaine Varron processed Gabby realized it was another individual, who was also curious to look inside.

“Hah.. I guess!” She responds with uneasy laughter, scratching her head with her hand when another person had suggested the same thing.wolfgang volkov looked more intimidating than Yvaine Varron so her response was more anxiety triggered. “You bet!” Gabby responds once again, her hand motioning into a thumb’s up.

Two more individuals came along though it seemed that only Locke Jamison’s Casso-casso was interested in going into the off-limits area, their trainer not so much…

She swallows, hoping that her father GABRIEL BLACK or anyone else in her family will ever find out that she did this.

Slipping through the barricade, her skunktank follows her closely. Coming across the hall labeled as “ SHALOUR’S SCINTILLATION.” In a short manner, the name caused her head to cock - she had not a clue how t pronounce it or what waited inside.

“Maybe we should head back after all?”

TL;DR:

---

Decides to go along with the group but is overall a little hesitant.

Facing “ SHALOUR’S SCINTILLATION.” She is more unsure and decides to consult with the group once more.

"Oh, you're all just a bunch of pussies, where's your sense of adventure!" Yvaine smirked, breezing past the three gathered and heading off behind the velvet ropes acting as barrier to keep unwanted visitors (just like themselves) out. It was surprising however to find that only mirrors, a seemingly endless amount, greeted them. Her Gabite just trotted on behind her, cocking its head as it watched its reflection going on and on within the maze. Then it snapped its head, let out a soft growl and glared off into the distance, prompting the scarred redhead to wander off in said direction, unaware of the figures of Luka Chêne and Paxton Concordas wandering in the reflection of the maze of glass.


Eventually Yvaine would find herself deep within the maze, her Gabite still irked by something she wasn't seeing… with her good eye she tried to scan the different images reflecting back at her. Some were truly strange… like this one, for example! A black shaped form with an eye, somehow calling upon the memories of stories her father used to tell her about these hieroglyphs used in ancient times… funny they added one of them in this exhibit. The damn thing even blinked— With creased brow she focused back on the form, yet the very moment it dawned on her that it was alive, the ?-shaped Unown shot up, darting up the walls and out of view in mere moments. "What the…. alright, time to get out of here. Time to use your nose and bring us back to the scaredy-cats, my friend." she tapped the Gabite's head, who stopped its snarling at the escaped Unown to pick up potential scents of others. 


Yet even with the help of Gabite it took her a fair bit of time to find her way out of the maze, stumbling on a dead end more than once. She arrived back at the exit moments after wolfgang volkov yelled "You seen' this shit?", only to see Locke Jamison disappear through what seemed to be a solid wall of glass. "Talk about interactive exhibitions!" she grinned, going forth in and reaching out to the glass wall, watching it ripple the moment she touched it. Despite the man's intimidating demeanor he didn't seem all that brave to her, so Yvaine nodded and turned back to look at wolfgang volkov, and by extension gabrielle black if she'd made it to the exit by then as well. "Well, see you scaredy cats on the other side!" And without much more than an "I dare you" expression on her face, she too disappeared through the rippling glass.

Gabrielle found the man’s tone mildly irritating. She didn’t need a scolding from a stranger, especially one that asked if they were looking to get into trouble. Not bothering to say a response, Gabrielle was a little happy when Locke Jamison had also agreed. It was unfortunate that their pokemon seemed so intent on exploring further, and the rest of the group also refused to turn back.

She sighs, not debating any further and following closely to not get left behind. She doesn’t stop Yvaine Varron from going on ahead, she got the impression that she wasn’t one to really listen to reason. She did begin to worry when losing sight of Locke Jamison but before she could bring it up to Wolfgang he suddenly declared to call the employees.

“What’s wrong?” She questioned, her pace quickening to keep up with the man who seemed panicked. Her eyes widen when Wolfgang’s hand goes through the wall in front of them.

Nodding slowly in disbelief as she doesn’t understand how it’s possible.

Relieved when she noticed that both Locke and Yvaine came back, Gabrielle gasped as Locke tumbled into the wall, vanishing. The woman was also quick to follow Locke, and after building her courage Gabrielle too passes through the rippling glass.

SECOND PROMPT

THE GLASS PORTAL brings them straight into the abyss. on the other side, they will find only darkness. robbed of their vision, they’re left to wallow in the cold, a sudden chill stealing their warmth through exposed skin and fabric ill suited for unseen temperatures.

once the last person, wolfgang volkov, enters, nothing happens. it isn’t until a few minutes of inactivity from the portal that it closes behind them. that’s when the lights turn on automatically. rows upon rows of florescent bulbs illuminate all at once, blinding.

what they find astounds them. museum display cases of pokemon many have never seen before. they’re suspended in an ice so thick that it permeates the glass in a permanent fog. it becomes obvious that this is the source of their chills.

each container has been locked for some time. what looks to be condensation has long frozen over the locks and clasps. each one is set in perfect uniformity, aligned and spaced apart at even intervals. it creates a row of teeth that usher them forward, into the jaws of this refrigerator.

at the end is a showcase that houses a PHIONE, arms spread, as if mid-attack. across from it is a case that has yet to be completed, holding a pokemon tied in place. ice has started to form around its bindings, unfinished, marking it as the newest addition.

ONE OF YOU may claim a gacha version of the pokemon listed.
redeem as a gacha pokemon in the shop.

the final wall of this room appears to be a planetarium. the outside of this vast spherical theatre are the celestial stars of an unidentified galaxy. each one twinkles with a unique color and intensity.

there is no door or entrance. just an empty desk and turned on computer terminal. a blinking command line beckons them with a retro green font: drktriad.exe.

the machine, keyboard, and mouse show their age. they’re discolored in a faded manilla wash. only the usb plugged into the computer’s side seems new. it’s modern tech but strangely alien.

ONE OF YOU may claim the MYSTERIOUS DEVICE.
more details can be found HERE.

sudden, after someone unplugs the MYSTERIOUS DEVICE, the planetarium wall expands. like a balloon, it inflates several times, growing into a three dimensional construct. only then does a door reveal itself, opening on its own accord.

a single pokemon comes out, blinking, unfamiliar to the party and equally confused by their presence. “pi, pi,” it questions with an assertive hum.

it looks at them, one by one, before staring in the direction of the non-existent glass portal they came in from.

OBJECTIVES

• post at least 6 time total.
• at least 1 participant or their pokemon should touch a display case. a human will have their hand encased in ice and suffer frostbite for until the end of the event (can be treated). a pokemon will suffer the same fate but die due to their wounds by the end of the thread.
