OOC//Notice

Hi all.

These past few weeks over my hiatus, I’ve been pondering a lot, and I’ve begun to realize that, with my real life (esp. college) starting to really ramp up, I need to focus on that first and foremost.

So, I think it’s best I cut back on my internet matters a fair bit and focus on my real life stuff, which includes taking a break from not just rp things, but sites I spend a lot of time on in general, mainly Tumblr and everything with it included. So, in addition to dropping all of my muses, I am also relinquishing my title as a mod of this group. With what I plan to do with taking a break from Tumblr/a large chunk of ‘internet things’ for an indefinite amount of time, I simply won’t be able to maintain my duties as a mod, and it’d be selfish of me to cling to the title, just as it would be selfish of me to cling to my muses.

With all that said, I’m sorry to all of my thread partners and the rest of the group. I will miss my time I have spent rp’ing these past few years, and I’m very sorry that I was not able to be around as a mod longer like I thought I would be. No matter what happens, I hope all of you are able to continue to have fun rp’ing and the like, and I hope I can return to Tumblr and rp’ing in the future.

Give me an AU and I'll tell you what my muse would be in it.

Example:

western!au = my muse is a cowboy

royalty!au = my muse is a princess

etc.

[coinchaser]

abalone

abalone:what kind of situations compromise my muse emotionally

Being in the presence of ghosts/the supernatural. They freak her out to the point she will break down very easily. Also stuff relating to her parents’ connection to Plasma, etc. She gets very defensive and can explode easily if she is on the subject.

[coinchaser]

hematite, pyrite (jade)

hematite:how squeamish my muse is

I think a little squeamish. Like if somebody’s bleeding and whatnot it won’t really freak her out but if it’s just like gore galore, limbs all mangled or something, etc. then yeah she’d get grossed out. Not to the point of fainting or puking but, she’d turn away I think.

pyrite:a physical health headcanon

The burn scars she has from when Banette attacked her aren’t just eerie looking--they also damaged some of her nerves too.

Storm Clouds || OPEN

Most children roamed their regions at a young age, and familiarized themselves with the terrain as they went. N had never had that opportunity, and while he had, by this point, done much wandering to make up for it, most of it hadn’t been in Unova. He knew the map by heart, of course, and knew the forest well enough to walk it blind, but deviate even a little bit from the beaten path elsewhere and he was a lost little kid.

So maybe exploring around Twist Mountain with a storm moving in wasn’t his wisest move. When the rain started, he reluctantly let his friends into their pokeballs. He never liked the sign of ownership, plus he would miss the company, but they deserved better than being stuck out in a storm as fierce as this one was shaping up to be. Roaming the terrain in a downpour without anyone by his side, with no clear destination to look forward to–it wasn’t one of the happier moments in his life.

[coinchaser]

“W-Whoa, hey!” She instinctively stretched a hand out towards the Trainer, but of course she could never reach him in time before he fell. She grimaced for a moment; he certainly seemed much more worn down by this storm than she was. Magnum was already hovering over the person now, even before Jade could get so much as a leg up.

“Yes, I’m fine, thank you. I can–go, if you’d like me to, just give me a moment to prepare myself.”

Jade gave the man a puzzled half-frown, crossing her arms as she went to shoo her sniffing Arcanine away from his face. “Huh? Go? Back out into that?” She pointed to the cave entrance with a thumb, where it only seemed like the downpour had picked up since she found this shelter. “There’s no amount of preparing in the world to take on that mess outside. And you sure don’t look like you could even handle as much as a cold shower right now.”

Another gunshot-like thunderclap roared out after a blink of white light, prompting a small flinch from Jade and Magnum. She gestured towards the outside again to reinforce her words. “Yeah, seriously, just chill here until this is all done. We don’t mind.”

She readjusted her wet hair again, which had already begun turning wild. “And if you got a problem with people, I ain’t gonna talk much. So you can just do your own thing if you want,” she added as she knelt down in front of him. “You can stand, right?”

Part-Timers ll Jade & Lucas

[coinchaser]

Jade laughed a bit at the man’s assumption. “Hah, me, an owner, maybe of a casino or something someday…,” she mused to herself. She had begun to half-listen to him while her thoughts drifted to several mental skits of her as an owner of various businesses.

“Hmwah? Oh, oh right, yeah!” She nodded quickly. “You just gotta work a little’s all and uh, uhm, hmm, but as for what to do…” She glanced back at her Pokemon; Motley seemed fine stacking the hay, but Magnum looked like he could use a hand curtailing the Mareep. “Oh ahm, here, just,” Jade gestured to her Arcanine, tongue lolling excitedly as he chased after the Mareep. “All that’s really left to do is getting these Mareep into the pen, so how’s ‘bout you just go help Magnum with that and I’ll go let the owners know what’s up, alright?”

Without waiting for much of a reply, Jade raced the sunset to the Floccesy Ranch owners’ main house. Her hope was that they were a little late for their early bedtime.

By the time she returned, the landscape had turned to a black silhouette against the dark orange skyline. It wasn’t a long talk with the owners, who were fine with the extra guest of course; the sunset was simply faster than Jade could talk–or jog. “Okay,” Jade began as she saw the other traveller come into view, “They were fine with it. I knew they would be but, yeah it’s probably good to just keep ‘em updated.” Stopping a little in front of him, she glanced around him in search of her Pokemon. “So, ah, how you guys comin’? Any more Mareep to herd or, can we call it done?”

[aemulatix-blog]

Lucas merely nodded at her words as he patiently waited for her to explain on the duty that he was to do. Glancing over to the Arcanine, a short smile formed upon his lips as he watched it chasing after the herd of Mareep. “ So all I have to do is help um… Magnum, right? I just need to help him lead the herd of Mareep in to the pen?”

Expecting an answer, all the assistant saw was an empty spot where the stranger once stood and in her place was the trainer’s Arcanine. Letting the smile on his face reform once more, he gently set his backpack down nearby as he looked towards the canine Pokemon expectantly. “Well then, I’ll be in your care then um…Magnum, right?”

It can’t be that hard…right?

….

He wasn’t sure which felt more sore at that moment, his legs or his mind. It was easy at first, the first few Mareep had obediently entered the pen as he instructed but soon after when he had began leading the next batch in, the first batch had already scurried off back to their original position. This continued on for quite awhile that when he was finally done with leading all the herd in and counting for every single one of them that he noticed the sun had begun setting.

Laying down back first against the grass, Lucas took the moment to contemplate about how the owners were willing to do all of these chores before they gave out lodging for help and soon chalked it up to sheer willpower. Hearing footsteps approaching, the assistant released a short sigh before getting up to greet whoever it was and was relieved to see the trainer from before.

“Y-Yeah, we’re done. Magnum was a great help. Thanks for helping with the explanation, Miss…” Realizing that he had not even introduced himself to the other, he let loose a nervous laugh before holding his hand out to the other. 

“The order’s kinda messed up but it’s nice to meet you, I’m Lucas.”

[coinchaser]

Jade didn’t expect a hand being offered to her. The strange formality of the other only briefly puzzled her, though, quickly meeting his hand with hers. “No problem. I’m Jade,” she replied with a quick shake. “And don’t worry about order or nothin’. We’re not at some fancy dinner or somethin’.” Letting go of his hand, she gave a sharp whistle to her Pokemon to bring them in.

“Anyways, judging by how you were laid out on the ground there I’m guessin’ you wanna turn in for the night huh?” As she turned around to direct him towards the barn, Magnum and Motley zoomed past the both of them, romping towards the complementary stalls they get to sleep in.

“Well I was gonna say ‘it’s over there’ but I guess they showed you that huh?” She mused with a smile as she started trekking towards the barn. She didn’t say much as they walked, or rather, she didn’t know what to say. The entirety of the short walk was thus spent thinking of any small talk she could muster. Luckily, by the time they reached the barn, she found an excuse to break the silence.

“Ok so this is our, uh, ‘lavish’ room for the night.” She pointed to the second floor, only accessible by a rotted wood ladder. “Aaand we sleep up there.” She started up first, eager to take finally unwind after such a labor-intensive day. Once Lucas had joined her, she motioned to some worn blankets and grain sacks. “Hay’s comfier than you think, but y’know just in case you need something extra, we get those.”

Engine Trouble ll Jade & Ingo

[coinchaser]

attentater :

The first thing he noticed, was the fact he was laying down. The second, was that his body hurt and he wasn’t quite sure why. As he started getting up, slowly of course, he heard the voice and blinked a bit at the familiarity of it. Sitting up, he put a hand to his head and winced, “A little dizzy and sore, but otherwise fine. And yes, yes I’m Ingo Nochkunst and we’re on one of the subway trains.” He knew she was only looking out for him, which is why he wasn’t annoyed by the questions.

Pulling his hand away from his head, he looked at his glove and gave a grimace. Of course there was blood. Pulling it off, along with his other, he put them both away in his pocket. Looking back at Jade, he slowly stood up, staying put a moment before giving a nod, “Right, I’m fine. I assume from your questions, you’re alright too then?” With his head and vision clear, he’d finally pieced together what had happened.

Looking at the damage done with an observant eye, “Well, we should go and check the other passengers. Can’t have them panicking and doing more harm than good to themselves and the remainder of the cars.” He was all business, acting as if she were still a Depot Agent and no time had passed since she’d left the station.

The ever-calm and unchanging tone of her former boss’ voice instantly dragged Jade’s head away from the edge of hysteria and towards a growing sea of embarrassment. It wasn’t anything unusual to ask such questions in a wreck, but she still couldn’t help but feel like a fool. The way he was carrying himself compared to her in this situation only validated her decision to leave Gear Station those few years ago.

“I assume from your questions, you’re alright too then?”

“O-oh, uh yeah I’m fine,” she responded hastily. Suddenly all the stress and apprehension she had stored up on a daily basis while working under Ingo came flooding back. Tenfold. “Er at least as fine as you can be after something like this, I mean.” Despite being gone for years, her training had never left. The moment Ingo had finished assessing the damage, he would turn around to find Jade with her arms at her sides and her posture straightened into the typical stand-by position.

“Well, we should go and check the other passengers. Can’t have them panicking and doing more harm than good to themselves and the remainder of the cars.”

From his response, no, orders, it seemed Ingo had also already fallen back to treating Jade like his employee. The employee who had already completely forgotten about the other potential victims till just now. “A-ah yeah right the other passengers!” In her sudden haste to get to the next lopsided door, she nearly stumbled into another overhanging pole.

As she caught herself on the wall, she caught a glimpse of the next car through the partially shattered door window. Though, as she took in the full scene of carnage, she wasn’t sure if she could call it a car anymore.

“Umm, well sir, I don’t think the passengers could possibly do any more damage at this point...jeezus...”

Half of it was crumpled into an inaccessible mass, accordion-style, and the other half’s walls and structure was severely warped from the rippling impact. The sharp metal edges and train parts protruding through the doors on the other end of the adjacent car confirmed the rest had been crumpled up the same way. Absolutely no lights were functional either, which made it hard for Jade to tell if there were any passengers in there or not from her current position.

“What the heck happened...?”

She hurriedly gripped the door’s side and began to pry it open like she did the other one, but this one only budged less than in inch at most.

“Dammit, it’s jammed!”

Road Block ll Jade & Damianos

[coinchaser]

aspiringpokeaidoru :

Notebook in hand, pencil behind the ear, and Prince snuggled up around his neck like a scarf, the slowly rising idol observed his surroundings as carefully, yet quickly, as they could. The studio had told him to start coming up with songs to sing, they were going to set up his first ever single, and to say that he was excited out be an understatement. He had been waiting for this since he first figured out he wanted to be an idol. His first single would showcase everything he had to offer, and it would make or break his future.

The Eevee around his neck yipped occasionally as they walked, whether it was towards a drop of water that came down from the ceiling, or towards a small Pokemon that had dared to move while in his presence. Damianos had roughly sketched some things, not a perfect artist by any means, but things that he thought would inspire him. Believe it or not, some few varieties of flowers could actually grow in caves like this.

He was too far away from the normal exit, he mused, so Damianos assumed the secondary exit would suffice. However, the echoing words of a girl’s voice made him pause for a moment. Another blocked exit? How troublesome. He pursed his lips together, deciding to come closer.

“They’re blocking the way, huh…” He repeated, tilting his head as he came to a stop a little ways away from her. “… That is certainly not good.” Way to state the obvious, genius. “Well, the other exit is going to seal up soon, I believe… I don’t think we would make it in time if we did turn back.” Damianos looked at the Pokemon in front of them, his yellow-green eyes narrowing as he did. “I wonder why they are blocking our path, though.”

The Eevee around his neck yipped at the Crustle, flattening his ears and fluffing up his fur. He attempted to scare the Pokemon away, but of course, that failed miserably. Damianos raised a hand to pet the Normal-Type Pokemon. “Well, I think we are stranded here until they decide to move, then. Unless you can battle them.”

“Well, the other exit is going to seal up soon, I believe… I don’t think we would make it in time if we did turn back.”

Jade frowned as she looked towards the path towards the other exit. “He’s right, too...,” she thought to herself, crossing her arms. “Great.”

“I wonder why they are blocking our path, though.”

“Yeah, I dunno...,” she replied as she threw her hands up in the air in frustration. “They just do this sometimes. Nothing you can do about it from what I’ve seen...”

“Well, I think we are stranded here until they decide to move, then. Unless you can battle them.”

“Haha, oh man, battlin’ all those guys at once...” She noticed Magnum seriously considering the suggestion, inching toward the Crustle horde. “Hah, yeah, even I wouldn’t take that gamble,” she continued, keeping a hand gripped on a very frustrated Magnum so he wouldn’t get any more ideas. “I’m only really good with Singles anyway, sooo...” She surveyed the cave paths again. All the possible exit paths were already halfway full with water. And with the rapidly increasing evening tide, it took with it any lingering streams of light bouncing into the cave.

“...Ugh, I guess we are stuck here then.” She gave a deep sigh. “At least until the tide dies down...or the damn Crustle move but, yeah.”
