SEVEN TIMES IN THE STOVE

[sorbuscommixta-blog]

The lab’s doors are open. Many schoolchildren are about on a field trip, but there are older Trainers and curious adults around too. Seems like a busy day, and Rowan is pleased with the enthusiasm.

“If any of you have any inquiries, especially regarding evolution, I would be happy to help.”

AW GEE I WASN’T EXPECTING THIS MUCH ATTENTION… i’m glad y’all are excited about my Pear Man… i should be going to sleep soon so i’ll have to finish reading everyone’s info pages/following back tomorrow, until then, like this post and i’ll toss rowan into your inbox. what does he want? who knows, but he will be there, staring deep into your soul,

discord log 3 - old man gets philosophical in the middle of the night with his giant pet turtle

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 1:47 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: It isn't often I'm up so late for reasons unrelated to research.

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Today at 1:47 AM

[LumiosePlatane]: Everything alright?

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 1:49 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Fine. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Enjoying the night air. [ProfessorPyrus27]: One moment...[attached image: a photo of rowan's big old torterra, sitting near a fire rowan must have set. both the scenery and pokemon look peaceful]

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Today at 1:58 AM

[LumiosePlatane]: Goodness, that's photograph worthy!

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 1:59 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: It's a nice night. [ProfessorPyrus27]: It reminds me of many nights I experienced when I was younger. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Tellumo's branches have changed, though.

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Today at 2:07 AM

[LumiosePlatane]: Howso?

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 2:09 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Living things never stop growing or changing. [ProfessorPyrus27]: In this case, some of his branches have grown, some have been removed in the wake of battle, some merely damaged... [ProfessorPyrus27]: It's telling of his time spent on Earth. [ProfessorPyrus27]: I wonder what path humanity will take as it grows. [ProfessorPyrus27]: We can never forget what lies behind us, though. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Perhaps when I arrive in Alola, I'll read you those lessons I gave you when I tutored you again. [ProfessorPyrus27]: It isn't that I believe you've regressed, of course. A refresher is always helpful. [ProfessorPyrus27]: And if your own student is there, she can hear those lessons too, if you haven't taught her already.

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Today at 2:20 AM

[LumiosePlatane]: That'd be really nice, I'll look forward to it. We can catch up.

discord log 2 - don’t make the old man sad by not remembering him, augustine...

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 11:09 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Kalosian. It's a greeting. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Platane, hm?

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:10 PM

[LumiosePlatane]: Joke at home. [LumiosePlatane]: A nickname, so to speak. I'm not used to these online chatrooms. Usually too busy, but it seemed like a good way to meet locals ahead of time.

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 11:11 PM

[vanivillegirl]: youre coming to alola?

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 11:12 PM

[>:F]: well some of them are locals

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 11:12 PM

[vanivillegirl]: Im not a local, but I guess thats obvious!

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:12 PM

[LumiosePlatane]: I actually just arrived. And I figured as such, but that's okay. To both of you! New friends are never a bad experience, regardless of where they're from.

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 11:14 PM

[>:F]: mmmmmmm you say that now

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 11:21 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: A nickname, hm? [ProfessorPyrus27]: I happen to know enough about botany to know platane is Kalosian, referring to plane trees, also known as sycamore trees.

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 11:22 PM

[vanivillegirl]: ...professor sycamore???

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:25 PM

[AceofHearts]: Is there a Professor conference or something???? [LumiosePlatane]: Shhh no I'm on vacation

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 11:26 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: A student should always be learning. Professors, too, are students. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Vacation is no excuse for denying your title.

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:27 PM

[LumiosePlatane]: This is true. I got so many fascinating reports from my assistants, I had to come and see what all the fuss was about. And they've been insisting I treat myself, so I am killing two birds with one stone!

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 11:28 PM

[>:F]: more pokemon scientists...

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:28 PM

[LumiosePlatane]: Is that a problem? Am I not supposed to be here?

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 11:28 PM

[vanivillegirl]: professor sycamore is a good one, i promise!

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 11:29 PM

[>:F]: hm

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:29 PM

[LumiosePlatane]: Shauna, you are ever too kind to me!

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 11:29 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Good answer. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Have you uncovered my identity yet, then?

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:31 PM

[LumiosePlatane]: I'm afraid I'm at a loss, though I'm under the impression you must be another professor

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 11:33 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Would the word "poivre" offer some assistance, étudiant?

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:41 PM

[LumiosePlatane]: .....OH!

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 11:41 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Think you've got it now?

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 11:43 PM

[LumiosePlatane]: Indeed! I'm so sorry!

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 11:47 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: No need for apologies. [ProfessorPyrus27]: I suppose we are in for a reunion after I arrive in Alola. I intend to pay a visit soon.

ultra wormbeast-Today at 12:10 AM

[>:F]: he... [>:F]: <<Unable to identify words from speech.>>

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 12:11 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: ... [ProfessorPyrus27]: Speak more clearly, will you?

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Today at 12:12 AM

[LumiosePlatane]: Something is amiss...?

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 12:13 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: ... I suggest we leave it be. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Students should always be learning, so they shouldn't know everything, hm?

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Today at 12:14 AM

[LumiosePlatane]: Ah, but if we didn't pursue the unknown, what would we be?

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 12:16 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: True, but my point is that not knowing everything is perfectly acceptable, even necessary in certain situations. [ProfessorPyrus27]: I have reason to believe that particular enigma is one that should remain such until it is ready to reveal itself.

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Today at 12:19 AM

[LumiosePlatane]: I suppose with insistance like that, it means it is going to just like that.

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 12:25 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Remember patience, Augustine.

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Today at 12:25 AM

[LumiosePlatane]: I know...je suis désolé.

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Today at 12:30 AM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Again, no need for apologies. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Teaching and learning patience requires patience. I have no grudge against those who are still learning, especially not when their struggles exist because they are curious.

discord log 1 - here comes rowan (featuring various members of olelo alola, long post under the cut y’all)

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 9:48 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27 has joined the chat] [ProfessorPyrus27]: Good evening, all.

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 9:58 PM

[vanivillegirl]: hiya! [vanivillegirl]: oh! youre new, right? my name is shauna. whats yours?

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:00 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Dr. Nashi Nanakamado, PhD. [ProfessorPyrus27]: You may call me Professor Rowan, though. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Good to meet you, Shauna.

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 10:01 PM

[vanivillegirl]: nice to meet you, too!

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:02 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Vaniville, hm?

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 10:03 PM

[vanivillegirl]: yes! Im from kalos! but I travel a lot so I havent been home in a while

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:03 PM

[>:F]: oh good, cuz we needed another professor

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:04 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: ... Good to meet you too, >:F.

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 10:04 PM

[AceofHearts]: Well, hello there, Professor Rowan.

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:04 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: You wouldn't happen to be the Shauna that Professor Sycamore told me about, would you? [ProfessorPyrus27]: Hello.

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 10:05 PM

[vanivillegirl]: yes! that [vanivillegirl]: thats me!

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:05 PM

[>:F]: Kukui ain't given a great impression of professors, is all i'm saying

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 10:06 PM

[vanivillegirl]: professor kukui is nothing like professor sycamore, at least!

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 10:07 PM

[AceofHearts]: It's been my experience that Professors are generally very unique from eachother. [AceofHearts]: Oh, how rude of me. Grimsley, at your service.

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:08 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: I have heard good things about Kukui. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Nevertheless, judge not the group by the actions of an individual. [ProfessorPyrus27]: There are exceptions to that, of course, but it's certainly something to keep in mind. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Grimsley, of Unova's Elite 4?

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 10:10 PM

[AceofHearts]: That would be me, sir, yes.

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:11 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Hm! Good to meet you. It seems Silver made no exaggeration regarding the variety in personalities here.

Milo | Guzma/Nanu/Burnet-Yesterday at 10:11 PM

[Xxscissor]: oh god another professor

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:12 PM

[>:F]: that's what i said

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:12 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: ... [ProfessorPyrus27]: What is it you two have against professors, hm?

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:12 PM

[>:F]: kukui

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 10:12 PM

[vanivillegirl]: they REALLY dont like kukui

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:12 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: ... I see.

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:13 PM

[>:F]: it's complicated, and i don't even understand all of it

Milo | Guzma/Nanu/Burnet-Yesterday at 10:13 PM

[Xxscissor]: all kooky ever wants to do is drag me down

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:14 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Why is that?

Milo | Guzma/Nanu/Burnet-Yesterday at 10:17 PM

[Xxscissor]: i unno guess he just thinks hes better than me or something [Xxscissor]: tch

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:18 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: I see. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Has he said that himself? That sort of behavior would be grounds for a reprimanding, you know. [ProfessorPyrus27]: We professors use our knowledge to help others, not lord it over them.

Milo | Guzma/Nanu/Burnet-Yesterday at 10:19 PM

[Xxscissor]: he thinks hes so good and perfect and acts like he knows everything [Xxscissor]: tcccccch [Xxscissor]: bet i could be a professor too if i wanted

coyote | Molayne-Yesterday at 10:20 PM

[Steelworking]: I'm going to interrupt for a minute!

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:20 PM

[>:F]: of course you are

coyote | Molayne-Yesterday at 10:21 PM

[Steelworking]: That's all blatantly false and you know it, buddy. Aren't you supposed to be a grown man? Letting your petty grudge infect someone else is pretty low! [Steelworking]: Especially when he isn't even here to defend himself, jeez.

Milo | Guzma/Nanu/Burnet-Yesterday at 10:22 PM

[Xxscissor]: listen molayne u werent here when shit went down. stay out of this.

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:22 PM

[>:F]: you sure you ain't his clone or something? you talk exactly like him

coyote | Molayne-Yesterday at 10:22 PM

[Steelworking]: I think I know Kukui better than any of you, so I know for a fact that he'd never say anything condescending to you without you heavily provoking him. [Steelworking]: People tend to pick up habits from those they hang round, cousin.

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:23 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Calm down, you lot.

haribo | sophocles-Yesterday at 10:23 PM

[vikavoltage]: please try to give what molayne is saying a chance

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:23 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: There is no reason for an argument to spur right now.

coyote | Molayne-Yesterday at 10:23 PM

[Steelworking]: Pbbt, sorry. I didn't mean to make such a bad impression, but I can't stand for slander.

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:24 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Professor Kukui isn't here, so I won't be passing judgment of any kind.

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 10:24 PM

[vanivillegirl]: so! @ProfessorPyrus27, why are you in alola?

coolscar | Professor Kukui-Yesterday at 10:24 PM

[MoveFan101]: Whoa, whoa, whoa. [MoveFan101]: Do I Detect a sense of hostility here?

coyote | Molayne-Yesterday at 10:25 PM

[Steelworking]: There he is. Impeccable timing, pal.

coolscar | Professor Kukui-Yesterday at 10:25 PM

[MoveFan101]: As always!

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:25 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: That's quite alright. [ProfessorPyrus27]: I haven't gotten there yet, actually. Silver did... [ProfessorPyrus27]: ... Something I didn't quite understand, and I have access from here in Sinnoh. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Hello there.

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:25 PM

[>:F]: oh my fucking--

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:26 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: No need for language.

coolscar | Professor Kukui-Yesterday at 10:26 PM

[MoveFan101]: Alola, newcomer! I see you got "professor" in your username. Legitimate, or just for fun? [MoveFan101]: I happen to be a professor myself! [MoveFan101]: You know, upon doing a little back-reading, it looks like someone's got a bone to pick.

ultra wormbeast-Yesterday at 10:28 PM

[>:F]: gee i wonder why

coolscar | Professor Kukui-Yesterday at 10:28 PM

[MoveFan101]: Maybe even multiple someones! [MoveFan101]: Yeah, enlighten me! I couldn't conceive a reason!

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:28 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Legitimate. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Dr. Nashi Nanakamado, PhD. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Or more commonly known as Professor Rowan. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Good to meet you. I assume you're Professor Kukui?

coolscar | Professor Kukui-Yesterday at 10:29 PM

[MoveFan101]: You'd be correct, cousin! Oh man, the famous Professor Rowan, right here in my face! I'm suddenly transported back to my youth. [MoveFan101]: I was a big fan of yours! [MoveFan101]: Er, maybe the past participle ain't all that accurate. Your research continues to inspire me!

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:33 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Hm! I'm glad to hear that. [ProfessorPyrus27]: I've learned from yours as well. I would love to study a Tsareena sometime, given its evolution method.

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 10:34 PM

[vanivillegirl]: tsareena?

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:34 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: A Pokemon native to Alola, which evolved after learning the move Stomp. [ProfessorPyrus27]: ... [ProfessorPyrus27]: Seems you have all gone quiet. If this is boring you, I assure you, I haven't even gotten started yet. [ProfessorPyrus27]: Now, come explain what your issue with Professor Kukui is, now that he's here.

Jamie | Grimbles/Hala/Sycamore-Yesterday at 10:41 PM

[AceofHearts]: Actually, I was fascinated

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 10:41 PM

[vanivillegirl]: I might leave this up to you guys! [vanivillegirl is idle]

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 10:42 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: I'll have more to ramble on about once I've gotten some research of my own done.

Misha | Shauna / Cube-Yesterday at 11:01 PM

[vanivillegirl is online] [vanivillegirl set their mood to :exclamation:]

babbage | n/silver/hapu/rowan-Yesterday at 11:01 PM

[ProfessorPyrus27]: Hm? [ProfessorPyrus27]: ... [ProfessorPyrus27 set their mood to :pokedex:] [ProfessorPyrus27 set their mood to :aspear:] [ProfessorPyrus27]: ... Good.
