i understand both of your concerns, but—"[break][break]

dahlia snuffs the ominous light with the click of a closing lid. however, she attempts to sweeten the deal before offering a plan b(ee).[break][break]

"—if atkins' arrangements is willing to collaborate with the league, you would be offered a special business grant. quite the generous one, mind you." [break][break]

the commissioner looks to greyson then willow, each glance weighted with personal purpose.[break][break]

"if danger is your worry, personnel can be assigned and dispatched."[break][break]

dahlia's heartbeat eventually locates its regular cadence. her hand settles onto her chest as if to steady the world upon it. [break][break]

"i wouldn't be surprised if it came from the rusted artifacts themselves," the commissioner says to as she taps a pokeball against her dragonite to recall it. "in the same way, perhaps, the power spot might have came from the book?"[break][break]

although some may believe the book's destruction to have been a grievous act, dahlia wonders what would have happened should it have been allowed to exist in a whole state.[break][break]

after all, a power spot now exists beneath the league.[break][break]

"so, yes, please... please study it if you can."[break][break]

---
[break][break]

in the days to come, 's resignation is processed and 's demotion is confirmed. the search for another elite four member does not commence immediately, for stability is favoured over rash appointments in the wake of the conflict on ROUTE 105.

dahlia is not much older than her. not when zooming out in the grand scheme of time. they are two neighboring stars in a wider constellation, close together when viewed from the ballonlea-fringes, but far apart when studied up close.[break][break]

"i wish i could help you, melody." the commissioner says. "but in the end, you're the only one who you can figure that out. not your friends. not your pokemon. but you."[break][break]

dahlia pulls her hand away from melody's shoulder, though she hopes the shape of comfort remains.[break][break]

"for me, i just remain honest to myself. i don't pretend that i'm someone i'm not. i honor my authentic self and reaffirm in my heart of hearts that i am good." she says. "no pun intended."

"in no way is everything your fault!" the commissioner shakes her head, a blonde curl slipping out from behind her ear. "could you have predicted what would have happened in mt. chimney? could you have predicted kyurem and a ceo going rogue?"[break][break]

to the woods, she sways her arm as if to unveil the land for the first time.[break][break]

"we all understand now that we live in unprecedented times." dahlia says. "what little control we have can be wrestled away from us within an instant."[break][break]

she sets her hand on melody's shoulder. the grip is firm and comes with a comforting warmth. the tender gracidea scent of her hand lotion arrives softly from her wrist.[break][break]

"seeing the good in people is a strength, melody. but we live and learn. live and learn."

"we need more eyes in the air." the commissioner says. she leans against the cabin's wall.[break][break]

she struggles to find the right level of loud to speak above the engine, the burly resistance of air, but in respect to angelo's ear drums.[break][break]

"we have who has been a fantastic flying-type specialist," dahlia says, "but with rocket activity on the rise... and space-time distortions continuing to wreak havoc on our land, we need expert pilots like you to scout areas, chase storms."[break][break]

lilycove shifts shape as they swerve away. by their angle, the city looks brand new, a perspective that had once only been witnessed by pokemon in the skies.[break][break]

"but what i want most for you, angelo, is for your talents to reach their fullest potential." despite the turbulence, the billowing wind, a smile can be heard in her voice.

THOUGH AND MAY LAMENT the attacks on the feral WALKING WAKE, it is clear that subduing the frenzied beast would be an arduous, potentially fatal task.[break][break]

The more time taken to incapacitate the theropod, the more risk of injury... or even death rises for both trainer and Pokemon. After all, this Paradoxical creature demonstrates incredible strength and endurance. Even when cornered to the end of its life, the creature seems to only value maximizing harm over self-preservation.[break][break]



Eventually, hunger compels 's CHI-YU to act for the finisher. The jade beads glow an annihilating white, heated to an impossible degree. RUINATION descends upon the writhing dragon and tears it apart.[break][break]

The spiked tails stop their thrashing. They fall onto the cold cavern floor like unraveled barbed wire.[break][break]

examines the corpse of the WALKING WAKE:

The resemblance to a SUICUNE is not coincidental. Rather, it looks like a primal descendant, or a Suicune forced to undergo rapid adaptation in an alternate environment. The creature's small arms and bulkier hind legs suggest that most of its weight is supported by its lower body and the balance is further assisted by its unique horns. The make of its feet suggest that it can walk on water.[break][break]

Its insides are exposed by the RUINATION too. A curious organ exists therein: one that seems to be responsible for heating the water it attacks with.


Before more can be done, the corpse suddenly shatters into a glimmering light. One that is not unlike the light witnessed during TERASTALLIZATION. No physical remains are left in the afterglow. Curiously, the surviving book cover given to glows at the same time before dulling once again.[break][break]

"we can compile everything into a secure file before sending it through secure channels. i'm unsure of what to make of this book," Dahlia's Dragonite glares at the book, skeptical of its harmlessness. "but the glimmer it just exhibited reminds me of what we were able to secure from route 120. a glowing petal. perhaps, we can study it in conjunction with what we've discovered today?"[break][break]



Though the book may be destroyed, the idea of the WALKING WAKE now exists with an unparalleled verisimilitude. It is no longer a fabricated creature in some dicey dating simulator game. It is now a real memory that can be reimagined time and time again.[break][break]

And for this reason, the possession of this book may be dangerous. Who knows what else has manifested from its pages? Should it continue to exist within close proximity of these crystals, what else would be conjured? Perhaps the better question is, how did this book come to exist?


LEAVING THE CAVE


LEAVING THE CHAMBER leads the AQUA Initiative to another narrow passage of cave. However, the deeper they go, the more they can feel and hear an eerie resonance. An energy crackles in the air, raising the hairs on their arms. A familiar magenta glow graces their faces as they enter another chamber.[break][break]



There, a DYNAMAX POWER SPOT awaits. Underneath THE POKEMON LEAGUE, deep underneath EVER GRANDE CITY, the power explored in the memory of Galar exists. There is no doubt that the book and the surrounding tera crystals have played a part in its macabre creation.[break][break]

Eventually, League security is able to break through to 's ELITE FOUR CHAMBER. The crystal growth has halted, allowing , and other Officers to recover the AQUA Initiative.[break][break]

The following weeks are spent repairing THE POKEMON LEAGUE's building. Information in regards to the DYNAMAX POWER SPOT'S EXISTENCE has been made confidential lest TEAM ROCKET be able to use it to their own advantage. Nevertheless, in due time, it will certainly be revealed.


NARRATIVE FOLLOW-UPS


THANK YOU ALL FOR PARTICIPATING! Due to the happenings of this event, several things will occur within the month of September:[break][break]

[attr="class","ynospace"]
  • Due to 's actions surrounding ARTICUNO and his unwillingness to cooperate with the AQUA Initiative, has DEMOTED him from his position as HEAD RANGER.[break][break]

    On an OOC cautionary note, should continue to be combative with the League, there is a chance ARTICUNO may leave him in the future, for it has chosen an Avatar to explicitly partake in the faction war against Team Rocket.
  • THE RKS SIMULATION will soon open for the League using THE SCARLET BOOK as a pseudo SEAL STONE.
  • Narrative follow-up to the RADIANT PETAL will come soon.
  • DYNAMAX will be coming soon.




RULES & GUIDELINES



PRELIMINARY RULES


CURRENTLY, this event will have the following rules:[break][break]
[attr="class","ynospace"]

  • remember, in-character actions (or lack of actions) will have natural narrative consequences.

"i can understand the frustration of our system's limitations, thomas. rocket is lawless. we are not."[break][break]

dahlia settles her hands upon each other. in this unpredictable world, she can always rely on herself to hold her.[break][break]

"and yet our laws are our greatest strength. our systems keep us accountable. keep us unified. what councilwoman , councilman help codify what is right and when we win this war, we can say that we have compromised our morals less."

"a good reason. honorable, even." the commissioner says of doug's plan. [break][break]

time has eroded the geography of doug's memory, seemingly. spending so much time in that poisoned place... what roots doug must have settled in hoenn must have loosened. the dirt dried. the coastlines frayed by sludge he had to tread through.[break][break]

"i'm thankful for trainers like you, doug. even having lived in that version of galar for so long, you never stopped thinking about hoenn and its people." the commissioner says. "that is our job after all. no matter what the circumstance, no matter what the scenario, we have a duty to serve our region's people above all else."[break][break]

she smiles. and when she does, there are wrinkles.[break][break]

"refamiliarize yourself with our region and our constituents. then let me know what you've learned."

dahlia can feel the scale slipping from her fingertips. the fulcrum plummets, burdened too much by the sin piled tight in its plates.[break][break]

"you haven't defected yet. once the defection process has been completed, then you will be a defector. make no mistake about that."[break][break]

and when it crashes, the noise is deafening.[break][break]

dahlia shakes her head. she can feel a headache beginning to rise and spark across her temples. [break][break]

"remiel, we will need to seize zekrom for the time being." she says and raises a hand should he show signs of objecting. "until you complete the defection process. no harm will come to zekrom, and it will only be temporary. i'm sure you understand why."

AREA ZERO: Remix ► Pokémon Scarlet & Violet



THE WALKING WAKE



THE HYDRO STEAM GUSHES FROM THE WALKING WAKE'S MAW. The scalding geyser surges toward those carrying the book; however, the beam of water is contested by 's SHINY GOLURK. Searing droplets scatter onto their clothes and the floor; however, any BURNS are repelled by 's COMFEY'S SAFEGUARD.[break][break]

As the GOLURK'S Z-MOVE: NEVER-ENDING NIGHTMARE clashes against the unrelenting brine, 's SMEARGLE is quick to move into position thanks to its trainer's JOLLY nature. Just in time, the dog waves its brush-like tail. An IMPRISON forces the HYDRO STEAM to fail, the spout reducing to a pathetic squirt dribbling from the creature's jaw.[break][break]

A horrible yowl announces the WALKING WAKE'S TERASTALLIZATION. is quick to decipher its FIRE TERA TYPE. The FLAMETHROWER swings toward the group, their sightlines blurred by an intense heat shimmer. Immediately, 's WYDREER uses its Z-MOVE: STARRY SHIELD. A protective dome materializes, its shape made celestial by shimmering stars. Those inside (, , , ) are healed.[break][break]



As the cave chamber is submerged in shimmering lights, and her URSHIFU press the offensive. She summons AQUA RINGS around the cerulean theropod. Several pop, their duty fulfilled as they interfere with the creature's attack. Above, 's RAYQUAZA nullifies the SUNNY DAY with its AIR LOCK.[break][break]

's HEALING SCALES heal as he calls upon his ORBEETLE. The PSYCHIC-TYPE is wreathed in the PSYCHIC TERRAIN the man exudes as it provides PROTECTion for The Commissioner. She utters thanks and summons her DRAGONITE.[break][break]

"do we believe this to be the only one of its kind, or do more live here?" She says as her Pokemon conjures a SAFEGUARD too.[break][break][break][break][break][break]


The FOLLOWING CHARACTERS/THEIR POKEMON have been BURNED initially:[break][break]

's URSHIFU, 's SLAKING,


The FLAMETHROWER dispels a shield of ILLUMINA ENERGY from 's SLAKING; however, the Elite Four purposefully allows his partner to incur a BURN. Furthermore, the area is doused in a WATER ZONE from 's SYGNA SUIT. Empowered by the element, the WATER TERA TYPE DRAGAPULT commands looses a devastating HYDRO CANNON on the WALKING WAKE. It courses by several of 's AIR RINGS[break][break]



As the WALKING WAKE stubbornly pushes forth, 's URSHIFU uses its Z-MOVE RAPID-STRIKE: COMBO HIT. Through the flames the brazen bear incurs burns; however, its fists collide with the WALKING WAKE continuously in rapid succession, the thwack of knuckles against tough hide loud enough for the entire chamber to hear.[break][break]

's RAGE surges into her bonded PRIMARINA. The ILLUMINA ENERGY connecting them both protects the PRIMARINA from being felled by the FLAMETHROWER thanks to the SPECIAL SHIELD; however, it endures a terrible BURN.[break][break]

However, the PRIMARINA'S SPARKLING ARIA crashes into the WALKING WAKE with a powerful impact thanks to 's WATER ZONE. The subsequent splash sprays healing droplets around the chamber, curing both PRIMARINA and 's URSHIFU of the BURN STATUS CONDITION as 's SILVALLY lunges in with a WATER-TYPE MULTI-ATTACK. Briefly, the creature stumbles while its primal cords resonate violent cries.[break][break]

As the WALKING WAKE prepares to attack again, 's ROARING MOON and 's CHARIZARD summon HURRICANES. The latter's HURRICANE glimmers with the power of TERASTALLIZATION, lifting the heavy creature for 's RAYQUAZA to rain DRACO METEORS upon.[break][break]



As the WALKING WAKE slams back to the cavern floor, it is struck by 's CHI-YU. Its DARK PULSE crashes with its malevolent magic, striking and FLINCHING 's KECLEON to unintentionally leave it open for 's DRACO METEORS.[break][break]

The Councilman is quick to swap the KECLEON for his GLALIE. Suddenly, INFINITY ENERGY begins to coalesce visibly between , , and (LEAGUE THEME). Another FLAMETHROWER blasts from the WALKING WAKE'S MAW in retaliation.[break][break]

As the GLALIE PROTECTS against incoming flames alongside who shields himself behind a barricade of earth, 's RESHIRAM fires a DRAGON PULSE to contest it.[break][break]



Simultaneously, 's SLAKING uses its Z-MOVE: HYPERADAPT. A powerful AURA manifests as the SLAKING barrels forward. Its FACADE attack—now empowered by the BURN it has maintained—pins the WALKING WAKE to the cavern floor. The FIRE TERA CROWN SHATTERS. As the WALKING WAKE shrieks, brilliant lights scatter about the cave.[break][break]

Though it may seem like the fight is over, the WALKING WAKE will FIGHT TO DEATH. It will resist all attempts to capture as its tendril-like tails sweep around, its jaw open to futilely attempt IMPRISONED HYDRO STEAMS or launch FLAMETHROWERS. This creature must be killed, lest it take one of you down with it.

PROMPT


THE HIGHEST ROLL will determine the FINISHING BLOW on the WALKING WAKE. Those in SYGNA SUITS have ADVANTAGE ON THEIR ROLLS.[break][break]

The following MOD POST may not go into detail about how everyone's attacks finish the Pokemon off.



THE SCARLET BOOK



[player]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1035423510278979624/1153157046875725834/hehehehe.mp3[/player]
[break][break]

AFTER THE BEAST IS FELLED, the Commissioner breathes a sigh of relief. There is a period of time in which the WALKING WAKE'S BODY IS EXAMINABLE; however, in a few moments, unbeknownst to the A.Q.U.A. Initiative, the body will disperse into light.[break][break]

Sometime during the chaos, 's SMEARGLE uses ROAR OF TIME on the smoldering chunk of book in 's hands. Time is reversed briefly in limited space... The book reconstructs itself. Whatever can be seen seems to possess memories of the events of GOODBYE GALAR... A drawing of a DYNAMAX POWER SPOT... Eventually, time corrects itself, but the FRONT COVER, a thick scarlet case as heavy as a seal stone, remains.[break][break]



On it, a peculiar creature's design is inscribed in its center. Curiously, would notice that the cover did not previously contain this lizard-like design. Rather, its appearance is new and strikingly familiar to his CYCLIZAR. However, what remains the same are the four, never-before-seen symbols on the book cover's corners...[break][break][break]

There is only one way out through the other end of the chamber.

AREA ZERO: Remix ► Pokémon Scarlet & Violet



CAVE CRYSTALS


KYLE: "but isn't this one of the pokemon that appeared on that game?"

"i think you're right. this pokemon did appear, if we can call it one." The Commissioner says to . Though she did not play the game herself, reports of Dr. Holo's Rondez-view of Luv route describe a creature that matches the grisly visage of the one that opposes them now.[break][break]

Quickly, it is apparent that the phone screen did no justice to this creature, for the WALKING WAKE is a staggering beast in person. It towers above with primal claws. Every roar is as loud as an erupting geyser.[break][break]



SEVERAL ATTEMPT TO RECOVER THE MYSTERIOUS BOOK. On the gales of 's TAILWIND, rushes forth on his SHIFT GEARED CYCLIZAR. He slides beneath the behemoth with his vehicular lizard and his hand thrusts outward for the book.[break][break]

In a matter of seconds, several things occur.
[break][break]

The TERA CRYSTALS grow from their barnacle-like podium. As if attempting to seize the tome for themselves, the crystals crawl to keep it stuck. Still, the book is splayed open by the emerging MAGMA BUBBLE and EARTH SPIKE. manages to grasp a page, tearing a raggedy patch of it from the spine as he skids away.[break][break]

Immediately, the intense heat that emanates from 's MAGMA BUBBLE sets the tome aflame. The EARTH SPIKE surges from the ground. From its shadow, 's MARSHADOW lunges out to grab a burning piece of the page, unable to take the entire book in time.[break][break]

commands his CHARIZARD to use its Z-MOVE. A vortex of flames spirals outward toward the book as it is bored through by the spike; however, 's MEW manages to PSYCHIC the tome out of the fire's initial reach. Nevertheless, the flames are quick to catch up, but a PETAL BLIZZARD from 's VENUSAUR grants the book enough aerial lift to bring the smoldering book to and the rest of the party before more damage could be incurred.[break][break]

Thankfully, 's ENTEI manages to protect the HEAD PROFESSOR when it contests the swinging tails.[break][break]

's page fragment reads:
...time's relentless flow,[break]
Our heroes evolved, their knowledge and strength did grow....[break]
...the power to dynamax,[break]
Harnessing cosmic energy, one birthed from the primordial past.


's page fragment reads:
...with thunderous legs and its poisonous fyrd.[break]
From the depths, a geant Charizard did appear,[break]
bringing hellish flame...


The remainder of the book's main, surviving text:
...another w'rld, heroes arriveth,[break]
cleansing sludge and claw by...[break]
walls art hath raised to protect us i'm told.[break]
...forge our hearts so bold[break]
What more shalt beest...[break]


The remaining pages of the book are burned or torn apart. However, inspecting through the remaining cinders, one can see pieces of drawings, including one that appears to be a bastardized rendition of the drawing of SUICUNE on 's napkin a long time ago...[break][break]

Upon the book being touched, 's suspicions prove to be correct. To mess with a dragon's hoard in its own lair is a sure recipe for enraging it.


THE WALKING WAKE



'S MARSHADOW PROTECTS and from the HYDRO STEAM. While some are able to dodge on their own like and , others dodge the scalding strike thanks to 's own TAILWIND. The bestowed powers of LATIAS billow throughout the chamber as steam hangs in the air.[break][break]

The BREAKING SWIPE swings, colliding with and/or his Pokemon, and/or his TAPU LELE. Though the island guardian is able to execute its NATURE'S MADNESS due to the MEOWSTIC'S HELPING HAND, it underestimates the sheer strength of this PARADOX POKEMON.[break][break]

[player]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1035423510278979624/1146255723676839966/awoowowo.mp3[/player][break][break]

The TERA CRYSTALS remain resolute, though shards chip from the expanding shockwave. Together, alongside a strategic THUNDER channeled through the HYDRO STREAM from 's RAYQUAZA, they force the WALKING WAKE back as it NOBLE ROARS in pain.[break][break]

's ICE SHARDS, though weakened by the deteriorated bond between himself, clash against the stumbling WALKING WAKE'S SCALES. As it screeches, 's ROARING MOON fires a DRACO METEOR, landing upon the creature with potent effect. Thus, the DRAGON-TYPING is seemingly affirmed.[break][break]



After an EXTREME SPEED, 's ENTEI can determine that the WALKING WAKE is indeed remarkably similar to a SUICUNE. However, the similarities end with its appearance. Nothing else about this creature suggests that its origins are connected with the real life SUICUNE that once breathed and lived in this universe.[break][break]

As 's CHATOT returns with a PARTING SHOT, the creature contends with vortex of flames from 's CHARIZARD and the ghostly kelp of 's DHELMISE'S Z-MOVE. The SPIRIT SHACKLE from 's DECIDUEYE and TELEKINESIS from 's LATIOS assists with pinning it in place.[break][break]

's KECLEON emerges from its elongated shadow. The chameleon SHADOW SNEAK slams into the paradoxical monster with a loud thwack. The combined attacks are enough for the WALKING WAKE to decide that it has been pushed into a corner...[break][break]

As a SAFEGUARD is erected by COMFEY, the WALKING WAKE is quick to summon a SUNNY DAY. The cave chamber grows humid and hot. The muggy air is thick as it is sucked into the lungs, but the WALKING WAKE is unphased. Instead, it appears to empower itself significantly. Though HEALING is disabled by 's DHELMISE, everyone can see the beast is still hardy.[break][break]

The dragon evades attempts to kill the creature. As and shift partners, the creature launches its next attack.[break][break]

Haphazardly, the WALKING WAKE charges toward everyone, first chasing , , and (who may possess the remains of the book) and those closest to them. A HYDRO STEAM is loosed from its terrible jaws— and although one may suspect its strength to be weakened, the beam of boiling water is thicker and stronger than ever before.[break][break]

Swiftly, before it can be retaliated against, the dragon leaps onto a nearby TERA CRYSTAL FORMATION chipped away by 's TAPU LELE. Its claws scratch the glimmering deposit as it suddenly becomes encased in crystalline light. A CHANDELIER-LIKE GEM FORMATION sprouts from its head.[break][break]

Like a dragon, it breathes a FLAMETHROWER to burn everyone to a crisp.

ROLL


YOU MUST ROLL this round to avoid being burned. Any rolls less than 50 (1-49) will result in your character or your Pokemon being burned.[break][break]

If you are currently wearing a SYGNA SUIT or activate your SYGNA SUIT in the next round, you will have advantage on this roll (roll two times and take the higher value).

CAVE CRYSTALS


"not your fault, callan. i don't think anyone could have foreseen this." The Commissioner says. She recalls her Dragonite before approaching and his Tapu. "i appreciate the help, doug. it's unfortunate that you had to disrupt your leave for a matter like this."[break][break]

The accidental arrival of Gym Leader alarms her with guilt. It isn't fair for one to be thrown into catastrophe like this; however, she's comforted in part by the man's proven capabilities. After all, she had tasked and the former Elite Four to find promising candidates for AQUA. It seems as if the Top Champion has found one in Dewford's finest.[break][break]

"welcome to the meeting, navidson! are... are you okay? are we all okay?" She echoes , acknowledging her kindness with a nod. "matias, are you able to lift us back up?"[break][break]



And should try to feel the earth, his grudges crust with the stubborn soil. He is able to use his powers indeed; however, the TERA CRYSTALS present in the ground make any manipulation of it more difficult. As if sensing 's thoughts too, TERA CRYSTALS surge above them with a sharp, icy noise, creating a ceiling of kaleidoscope crystal. No way out. Just forward.[break][break]

As the smokey scent of his fires fade, 's observation of the area aligns with 's explanation of the terastal tunnels and the new cave systems under ROUTE 120.[break][break]



and prepare their defenses with KECLEON and DECIDUEYE as the residual TAILWINDS billow deeper into the cave. However, the threat does not approach them... Instead, they protect the group from GLIMMORA & GLIMMET that curiously seem to reside here. In time, the TERA CRYSTALS proliferate behind them. Their sharp jutting points grow toward their backs, forcing the group further into the crystalline catacombs.

WITHIN THIS CAVE, YOU ARE ABLE TO TERASTALLIZE WITHOUT A TERA ORB.


EVENTUALLY, THE TUNNEL OPENS TO A WIDER CHAMBER. On the other side, the cave continues, but the party's eyes may be drawn to the absolute abundance of Tera Crystals here. They glisten and gleam despite the absence of other sources of light. In the room's center, an odd sight: a hardcover book with red cover.[break][break]

[player]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1035423510278979624/1146255723676839966/awoowowo.mp3[/player][break][break]

SUDDENLY, FROM THE OPPOSITE TUNNEL, ANOTHER CRY RATTLES THE RIBS. THeavy footfalls approach and quake the cave. A gigantic creature barrels toward them. Its eyes are a bloodthirsty red blaring from yellow sclerae. Its aurora borealis mane flows around its diamond-marked hide, ending in six horn-like tips of red-orange hair. It snarls, raising its heavy, cerulean blue crest.[break][break]

Oddly, this creature looks like a SUICUNE...
[break][break]



A pillar of boiling water (HYDRO STEAM) blasts from its maw at the group before the theropod leaps forth. Upon landing, the clawed cave dweller swings both of its thick, turgid tails at the trainers for a devastating BREAKING SWIPE.

"nice to meet you too." the commissioner offers a polite smile. "i'm here to propose a deal. one that may involve you too coincidentally enough." she says to greyson.[break][break]

her gaze flickers to the box in her hands. [break][break]

"oh right. let me... quickly dispense of the suspense." [break][break]

she opens the box and a bright magenta glow spills forth: a dynamax crystal.[break][break]

"we were wondering if atkins' arrangements would like to be involved in the development of max honey."

CANON AC TEMPLATE


AUGUST 2023 CANON ACTIVITY CHECK

[break]

[attr="class","ynospace"]
4 ic posts for canon characters:



summarize 2 plots that are in-progress and being threaded:

  • 1. LEAGUE WORK[break]
    - The Commissioner's work as the political head of Hoenn recontextualizes all of her relationships as business-based connections. This tension is particularly explored in her meeting with the resurrected (FORMALITIES), where she mandates their relationship as a professional one, much to her quiet disappointment.[break][break]

    - She has also met with an Interpol agent, , as they survey a remote waystation. This thread attempts to cement their professional relationship while offering glimpses of their more casual selves, while also exploring what Yujin and Dahlia think of Hoenn, their motivations, etc.[break][break]

    - Meetings with other canon characters: , , and the AQUA INITIATIVE in AN AQUA ASSEMBLY PT 4. The event will unveil new information/new lore/new setting elements that will affect the whole site.


  • 2. FACILITATING FACTION-BASED DILLEMAS[break]
    - The Commissioner has played an important role in highlighting the transitions in narrative arcs for certain characters. turning himself in has facilitated a scene where Dahlia has requested to personally interrogate him due to their prior relationship as colleagues.[break][break]

    - has confessed that he was a member of Team Rocket to in "Penance", jumpstarting the defection process for the former Galarian Ambassador.

"good to have you back."[break][break]

the commissioner swallows dryly. she takes a step toward alexander and extends her hand for a shake.[break][break]

and should he take that warm, wizened hand into his, he may be able to sense that old guilt so sore in the heart of her palm.
