You shouldn't have made a new thread. Your first hasn't even left the 1st page. It is going to stay up for longer than a month still. And you can only make 5 threads at once on this board, making new threads so early will bite you in the ass pretty quicky though that only happens cause one fate quest was taking up most of the board due to autism. It's wise and just polite to use a thread as long as possible.

>>5469832
Like, lately the board has been so slow some threads remain on the board for nearly two full months. You used the last thread for a week. Your first thread won't even be half way to Dropping off the board before you reach the limit of threads created and will either need to stick with one or habe your quest be put on hold for around a month because of it.

Not trying to be mean, just trying to give advice here.

>>5469811
>What are you going to do!

But >>5469832 is right.

>>5469811
>>Accuse her of being a pervert (It worked yesterday)

"And you're the sick perv sitting there drooling over my feet while you thought I was sleeping, right?"

You bluff, hoping to throw the new girl off balance.

>>5469833
Oh. And I feel obligated to mention, threads can become unusable faster than before they get close to falling off the board . But that only happens when you near or surpass 3000 posts. Which is an extreme rarity, at least presently.

>>5469811
Agree with >>5469833, would recommend not changing threads till hitting the bump limit.
Also
>This person is clearly a perv, why else would they be trying to room with a COOL BEAUTY like yourself?

>>5469832
>>5469833
So back in MY day the old thread wouldve saged by now.

Thats the opposite of a flex i had threads like "Hex maniac chapter 13 part 4" so im not used to actually keeping chapters seperate...

I DID try to delete the thread and move the post but I was too slow... Hard whopsies.

>>5469852
Like i remember the autosage being what... 100 posts?

>>5469872

Oh no worries. Quests used to be fast as fuck, especially in the /tg/ Era. But here it's different, and everything is slow as balls and it's expected for there to be one update everyday or every couple of days or even once a week or longer.

Threads autosage after 5 days. It just doesn't matter. Cause even when the board is unusually active, threads will stick around for around 30 days and it's common to use them until they reach page 10 or have been on page 10 for a few days since theres no danger of it getting pushed off the board without warning.. However, very active/fast threads will be abandoned earlier, but as I said that's rare, cause for a thread to begin to collapse under its own weight you need close to 3000 posts for it to begin to be unusably leggy, though that happens sooner for phoneposters

It's just cause the board is slow. It is slower now than it usually is, so this thread and the first will, unless there's a burst of new threads or several, will last until January, give or take a few days

Really, the only danger is a mod going rogue and deleting your thread for no reason. That happened to a few quests a couple of months ago.

>>5469884
Eh itll be fine ill just rebuild. Things were slow before but honestly this thread is going relatively fast... which i guess lets you know how big i was! or... wasnt?

Accusations won, time to brat.

You panic, your trapped in bedsheets, and you aren't sure if Mimikyu's going to be trusted to fight for you if Carrie puts you into a scrap... Your fight and flight responses trigger.

And for some reason, you really only have a fight response.

"W-w-what's the big idea pervert!"

She blinks.... wink? One of her eyes doesnt seem to work quite right. "Pervert?"

"Yeah! Don't you know its against the law to stare at woman when they sleep? What are you trying to do? What those hands... hand! I got my eyes on you. I can report you if you didn't know!"

"Oh... but we are already in prison?" She seems more confused then anything. "So... what happens when you report me?"

You... don't know.

"Something bad!!" You lie. "You'll get detention! A lot of it!"

"...well I don't want to be arrested. Or to make you upset." She stares at you. "Do you... need help?"

"No." You sulk wiggling out of the tangle. "I am a threat. I don't need your help, or for you to get your paw on me Miss Gropers I can wiggle out of this myself. Turn around."

She actually does and you eventually manage to stand up. Out of your sheets and just in your prison uniform, which is still not your ugly ass school outfit.

>Interrogate her! Why is she in your room and trying to get a peepshow
>Leave, you have a mimikyu to interrogate and a scary girl to ignore

You are going to say more... but... you realize... you feel gross. Not sick... GROSS! You are dirty!

You used to have baths, daily, with scents and oils you arent used to roughing it, and the... roughly thirty hours of panic attacks and no hygiene has made your body feel like its been dipped in oil. You feel rancid.

"Um... wheres the shower?" You ask Carrie, you will finish this... LATER.

"Bottom floor." She points down.

You nod and take your uniform and head down... and she's following you. You start walking down faster, and so does she. You run, she runs.

"Why are you chasing me!?" You shout behind you.

"I am following you! What if you get lost!" She yells back. And before you respond you are at the bottom floor.

The bottom is way bigger then the higher floors, because this is the unisex part of the dorms.

You peak into the showers and... well they are divided by gender at least... but they are public!

You eep and stare at the door mustering your courage... as Carrie walks in.

You hear a sound of a pokeball opening and a loud clamor as, after a few minutes a lot of angry red faced convict woman stomp off, still dripping as Carrie walks out of the shower and stares at you.

"Shower is open."

Cause it might be funnier if she doesn't know why it's bad to kick out everyone from the showers.

So i see 3 choices for getting a cool free shower and then asking wtf is going on.

Makin dinner... and then... WRITING!!!

Sorry long dinner. Watching Defunctland.

You look at the scrambling woman, some of whom arent even clothed just in towels. This... could cause some problems... But you know what. That's fine. You deserve a private shower, you used to get baths. You need to take what you can while it's there to take.

You hop in the shower, and let the warm water wash your worries away.

Though, not too many worries. Your nerves keep you from relaxing too much, you dont want those woman rushing back while you are still here.

You quickly towel off, once you are soaped and rinsed, and finally put on the damn uniform.

Its stripes are garish and the opposite of slimming... but at least they are comfortable.

You aren't a brat, you just know what you deserve.

Honest.

You head out and... wow Carrie is STILL waiting for you.

Okay you will bite. "Um... Carrie... why are you nice to me?"

She turns to you. "Should I not be?"

"NO! No, of course you should be nice to me I am great... but... it's not like I've been great to YOU, I mean we haven't met... are you really a pervert."

She shakes her head, though you catch a blush. "No its... your dad."

"...My dad?" Is she... a pervert to your dad? Shes a bit young to be your second mom! And you HAVE A MOM.

"...I...Want to join Team Lazy!"

>Oh. Okay, welcome aboard.
>...Why?
>... you know, im just his daughter, Im not actually in Team Lazy.
>Write in

>>5470302
Big question: is our answer to this actually determining our in-universe involvement, or just our feelings towards our position in Team L? (just realized that could be shorthand kek)
Also, given our position as mafioso daughter, would we be able to just fiat her into the team down the line even if we don't have any real involvement?

>>5470391
Whatever you say... you arent ACTUALLY a official member of the team, you got arrested for suspected involvement, but you mostly got the benefit of it.

Its the classic tale of a Mobster trying not to drag his family into his own messes.

The police however, saw you as a hostage, and so your locked up.

You can promise to send a good word, or even form your own branch of it. But you were not arrested for your involvement in the team.

What you know of Team Lazy is... its a lot more Skull and Rocket then Galactic or Magma. The Goal of Team Lazy is to "Create a world where everyone can be lazy and not work." Your father and his team work really hard to do nothing. It used to be simply things like... stealing candy, and occasionally giving away free toys they stole from trucks.

Nowadays they keep attacking construction trying to set up gyms and send imposters faking to be gym leaders and generally fucking with the PTC's ability to induct Orre into the group.

>>5470409
Imposters you say?
In something like... a disguise?
Hmm...

>>5470302
>You know, I'm just his daughter
>But uh... for what it's worth? Welcome aboard!

>>5470409
Huh, interesting.

>>5470302
>...Why?
>You know, I'm just his daughter.
>I'll try to put in a good word for you and back your case. Can't promise they'll accept though.
Either way it's good to know her reasoning. I'm wondering is she believes in their mantra or if there's any other purpose.

>>5470413
Yes.

Your father once impersonated the mayor, which if you may recall... is not really without precedent in Orre. However he had that position for like, months, while the big push for Aether to come in and "Revitilize" the countinent was happening.

He passed laws! Big fancy renovation laws that aether spent a lot of money "suggesting" to various people, filled with tax loopholes and allowances... and no one really noticed when he just, snipped a few punctuations here and there, changed a word's spelling...

When a law was passed that mandated that it was illegal to end recess, Roger was finally caught after a trail forced someone to actually notice.

And since no one could gurantee WHAT he changed... years of law and permits were just... undone. And Aether had to start all over.

Oh and the guy they arrested turned out not to be Roger, but a man pretending to be Roger pretending to be the mayor! He just switched them out!

That mans probbably at this school actually...

The law HATES your father.
So, so very much.

"...Why?" Listen, your dads the best. They give you everything you want. They let you stay out of school! They got you out of soccer practice when your mom signed you up... but Team Lazy isnt exactly a place you can just laze around in!

Also you know... she IS in Dusknoir Row with you. She MAY be a insane serial killer so... you need to verify you can trust this lady. Or your dad can.

Shes still blushing so... she probably ISN'T scarlet because you are just that cute... probbably. "I... I just admire them! The outfits! The schemes! The dream! The abbility to never have to work... to never listen to anyone else! Isn't that worth fighting for? Isn't that worth signing up for?"

"...So you want to work for me so you can never work for anyone?"

"...Well, its a little more involved then that... I just..." Her eye darts to you, until she shifts it away. "...My life could've done with a lot more laziness in it. I thought well... if I help you, Roger's daughter, I thought... well. I'd get that."

Ooooooh. "So you think if you help me out NOW you will get paid for it."

She shrugs, the empty sleeve on her right arm shuffling. "It is a little more involved. But that does help. I like your father Gurie. I like what he does. If you are my ticket into the big leagues with him, I am happy to help."

"Um..." This is a little awkward. "About that... I am just his daughter... I mean it's not like he wasn't there for me or anything, but he tried pretty hard to keep me out of his business. You know, he didn't want any of us to get roped with a criminal record when we were still kids and all... So I can't really officially induct you... but... well I have a record now... so I guess... I'll give you my endorsement.

You gesture around the tower. "This school... well this prison, thinks it can force everyone to being goody too shoes wage slaves! Look at how they run the Second Chanseys. I think its the perfect place to start a NEW Team Lazy! And I think it's time I join the family business."

You pause and start to feel stupid. "Um... I don't mean that I am replacing my dad, but like.. theres no team lazy here so... we are franchising? pleasejoin."

The woman gives a soft chuckle. "Alright, boss. She gives you the L sign with her one hand. "Nothing to do."

You sign back. "And all day to do it."

>You got your first member of Team Lazy (Rose Branch), Bird Tamer Carrie Crow has now joined your team.

"So..." You hear a lot of footprints. Those shower ladies probbably went and got their pokemon. "We should get going."

She nods.

Your name is Gurie Niamic, class's start in a hour and you are HIDING from the other girls in your dorm... for now at least. You'll figure out something, you always do.

But what you need to figure out now is... what are you going to do?

Always have a pokeball up. We never know what we can stumble into.

You decide that, after all the hustle and havoc of the morning, and what is assuredly going to be a even worse class time... that you need sweets. Sugar is a CRITICAL part of any diet your dad taught you that!

Unfortunately as you head out of the dorms and into the common area where the mess hall is... the big scary ogre man doesn't GIVE you sweets, or even a egg sandwhich.

You get a pile of oatmeal, not even boiled in milk its just water and and starch! And a cup of black coffee, the epitome of everything you stand against religiously. You are a hot cocoa girl and nothing else! Except for milk, and soda. But you do not compromise on hot drinks with this caffinated bitterbomb.

You... say nothing and slink off, maybe later but your not super great at confrontations, especially when your neck is in arms length from living construction equipment.

You seek out a table to sit alone in... and there isn't any... but there is one table where only one person is sitting... and its Tom! Great!

You slide your tray next to Tom who... glances up at you? (You can't tell, goggles) "So... Carrie didn't kill you Shouty."

"She did not Tom." You poke the oatmeal, it blurps at you threateningly. You think it might be a grimer.

>Eat in blissful awkward silence
>So... listen Tom, I do owe you, so... how can i pay you back, for a lot of things.
>Why ARE you nice to me? I am definitely not nice back.

I really should have mentioned it IC, its something like this:

Carrie, as you head down to the lunchroom, starts to take a turn to the left. "I... have business to take care of." She says, nodding to her own statement like shes convincing herself.

"Wait, I thought you wanted to join my team, what other business can you have?"

She continues walking, gesturing to the hallway you came from. "Their are... people who are mad at me right now. They don't know I am on your team yet... I do not want to be a burden on you. So soon?"

Is this about the shower thing? By the time you phrase the question she's taken off.

It's a little frustrating, you're supposed to be team leader but your team (All 1 member) is hiding the fact you exist. It's like your not tough enough to be the boss yet.

But then again, you haven't really DONE much with Carrie to prove otherwise... And Carrie could be doing worse then babying you.

>>5471153
This, but instead of "join my crew" I'll change to

You poke the gruelish oatmeal with your spoon, its sticky and stodgy and not very watery... which you guess is... good? What qualifies "good oatmeal"? "So Tom... why does all the food here suck?"

"Hmm?" She swallows a spoonful of her own and looks at you. "What do you want the one with little tyrunt eggs?"

"Was... was that a option?" You ask as Tom nods.

"Yeah, though I suppose it makes sense you wouldn't have been able to get it." She reaches into one of her many many pockets and pulls out small cylinders of paper, red and white. "Rose uses a Point system. You can get points for impressing the teachers and use it for various privileges. Like Meal tickets."

You look at the cylinders in Pockets finger. "Wait... are those smokes?"

She shakes her head, her goggles flashing you briefly when the lamplight reflects off it. "Not really. Its just a token for trading. You aren't supposed to have anything digital you know."

"...wait you have a switch, and those goggles?"

Her goggles twinkle. "I am a very good girl you know! All they had to do was disable the wifi capability... which is fine because I prefer cartridges!"

"But you needed a new dorm? Why did you need one if you've already been here?"

"Oh I got moved to a different house." She shrugs. "I used to be in the choke crew."

"You ended UP here? Why?"

Tom stops eating and stares at you... or well, it looks like it through the goggles. And wow they are red. "I killed a guard."

"...What?"

"You were going to hear it from someone." She shrugs. "He was all the prisoner's 'good guy', the one who would sneak things in from outside and do favors for you. And I electrocuted him with a Joltik." She frowns. "And they confiscated all my joltik too."

"...Why?"

"You wouldn't care." She looks at her bowl of brightly colored gloop. "No one else did."

Um... wow, that's... heavy, you aren't sure what to say about that... so... you need to change the subject... smooth like.

"Hey if your a remorseless murderer, why are you nice to me?"

Oh wait you forgot you are objectively terrible.

"I mean... you helped me get to bed, you helped me with the Mimikyu thing... and like, I just call you names."

I think we shouldn't ask Tom to join yet, she needs to volunteer herself. (Or we can pressure her to join later as a reward for the pokeball acquisition quest)

You look at Tom's clearly nicer oatmeal, with little sugar tyrunts floating in blue milk. "...What does that oatmeal taste like?"

That gets Tom's attention, they look at you. "You've... never had Oatquake Tyrunt oatmeal? But... your old. And... rich?"

You shrug. "All I ate for breakfast was pastries. Ursa Claws and Poffins. My dad really likes sweets."

"Oh... your dad sounds cool... You want to try some?" You nod and she takes a big spoonful and plops it into your bowl.

You eat it and its SO MUCH sweeter then the nasty stuff you got. Its got this vague suggestion someone... well didnt USE apple but maybe the oatmeal saw a apple once? It's got that kind of taste.

"You know, your a pretty cool gal Tom... Want to join my gang?"

"...Your what?"

Tomorrow I have work, which i didnt realize but now i do, but i do not wensday. And of course i will update tonight.

Um... something to hold you over... um...

Did you know I had plans where like, I gave each pokemon type a skill a la Disco Elysium and was going to make a elysium quest? I didnt go through with it but some of the notes are used for this... But im not sure what to use the skills on.

Maybe a side quest.

"Oh, you know my gang! I am forming one with Carrie!" You lean forward, excited at your great plan. "Turns out, shes a big fan of my dad! So I am continuing his work! We are going to form a coalition to protect the world from boring work and let everyone be as lazy as they want! You know? Team Lazy? Work hard for a future where they can be hardly working! Fight for the working man's right to just be a man? Actually wait no one in it is a man we are all girls I guess that slogan doesn't work nevermind its a dumb idea." Slowly you deflate until you are also poking at your oatmeal. "No one wants to work for shouty little Gurie, why did I come up with this idea? Why am I even alive? I should ju-

The bell rings. The guards start walking around the tables. "Alright plates away, time for class. No lollygagging."

You get dragged off into a different line then Tom and, after a lot of stammering and shoves, you end up swept by the tide of social obligation.

~~~~~~~~

"Greetings dear students." A tall thin men in red round glasses sits behind a desk, staring at every student at the same time. "My name is Mister Noah. I shall be your..." His fingers, rubberbound, drum against the podium. "Biology professor."

"I get plenty of biology in the showers teach!" Someone yells in the back, to the sound of hi fives.

You do not turn around, your glued to his face, his frown is there for a second but it stretches his skull in such a ghastly way. "Yes... how... cute. Allow me to change the curriculum then. Mr Hartwell appears to think you are all ready for the... advanced class."

The teacher taps his glasses and things to bright red and you hear the chortles slow to a choke. "That... my dear friends. Is the move Glare. Used by serpentine pokemon. It causes the enemy to be paralyzed. Fortunately as a teacher I have a few poketools to simulate these things... for my own protection."

He smiles and its all teeth, no lips. "Now Class... Mr Hartwell is finding it hard to move... do you think there are any other effects that this condition could have affected Hartwell with?"

>"He's... slow?"
>HA as if your answering a question nonono
>Whimper in your chair

Hartwell seems like a good guy to have on our side, actually. I never minded my own strict teachers as long as they were.... fair.

You raise your hand. Sure Noah is a little... okay hes VERY scary. But you recognize that scary, you handled ghosts, you are USED to scary. "Mister Noah. I think Hartwell is slow...er. I don't mean he's stupid."

"Oh, I would be less kind." Noah interjects to some chuckles as you shake your head.

"I just mean his reactions are slower than normal, half of what they used to be?"

Noah claps, smiling. "VERY good. Yes, Hartwell is paralyzed, his body alternates between sluggish and seized. And Glare is unique in that, electric moves such as nuzzle can be negated by the ground, stun spore is useless against vegatative pokemon like Bellsprout... and yet Glare, not so impacted. In terms of holding prey still, it is without much peer..."

He walks towards Hartwell. You finally turning around to see the vic-student is some black belt. "And yet! It is used by ambush predators... well them and Dunsparce. Why do you think that would be?"

"...To keep pokemon from escaping."

"Yes indeed Gurie, though few try. I posit a different theory. The Arbok, well, it is not the most vicious of predators. If a Tauros is prepared I imagine few Arbok will have much to eat... Their are nastier creatures in the forest... Take Hartwell."

He lays a hand on Hartwell's shoulder, and the man sluggishly tries to grop at it. "He is quite fit, and is not wanting in malice towards me... Nor am I particularly muscular. This wrist of mine should he be able to lay his fingers on it, would likely not last long under Hartwell." He pats the mans shoulder. "Yet, he is unable to. The tide has shifted... " He pulls at his coat and reveals a collection of bottles and pokeballs, pulling a large green vial. "If I were to simply dip my finger in this liquified Venoshock." The gloved hand goes green. "And..." Hartwell's eyes widen as the claw gets closer to him. "And lay my fingers upon my prey..."

The green goo slides on Hartwells face and he screams... and the goo slides off, landing on his orange shorts. "A jest. Merely lime gelatin. But you see how predation works." He walks to his desk with the poise of a corner at a burial. "Most of you I imagine are used to simply swinging for the fences with the strongest move with the strongest pokemon. Many pokemon have evolved to do just that... and many pokemon have evolved around such things as well."

He taps the desk. "I may be the biology teacher here, but I am also the nurse on staff. It is my job to make sure you understand the tricks Pokemon, and their masters, may use on your pokemon, AND on you. If I fail to instruct, or you fail to learn..." He smiles. "Well, for the sake of my work life balance, I implore you to be cautious."

He continues with his safety lecture, apparently a necessity before any of the "Fresh meats" (You apperantly) can get a pokemon. Even though you... well, have one already.

The bell rings and people start to get up, Hartwell sullenly shoving books into his bag. "Oh... Gurie... A moment after class."

There are some snickers as the class giggles at your apparent demise. You sit there silently as the room clears out. One at a time.

The door finally closes and Noah taps his cane on the floor and you here a bzzt. "We are alone."

You smile and run up to the cloaked man. "Uncle Nimra!"

Lazy Admin Nimra Diggory holds his arms outstretched and embraces your hug. "Gurie, my dear... it is good to see you." His smile turns into a frown. "The circmunstances though..." He eyes the stripes on your uniform.

You frown and break the hug. "Yeah... I didn't do anything wrong! They just spouted some babble about illegal curses and cuffed me on my way home."

Nimrah, or "Noah" as his cover name appears to be, nods. "Well, you would not be the first."

Nimrah Diggory or "Uncle Nimrah" is one of Lazy's Three 1s. Your dad named his three admins his "Number one Guy" even though there was three of them and two of them are girls. And also since they were under them his Number 1s werent actually number 1 in the team.

According to Nimrah it was the thought that counts. The Number Ones are a fraternity with Roger first among equals, not TRUELY their master. It helps that Nimrah was the one you were the most fond of.

That was because Nimrah lead the supply division! His team would 'accquire' the supplies that everyone else on the team used. Nimrah always had a knack for finding things and no matter what your dad and his friends needed, presents, food, rare pokeballs, Nimrah always had a way to acquire it.

Nimrah was a little 'off' but VERY patient, and you were very off and only a little patient so among your "teachers" you got along with him best...

And now hes your teacher in a prison.

You can only ask for 1 because the next class is in 10 minutes!

I am going to bed, so sorry for telling you I was only gonna be a few hours.

I have classes to plan, for you guys. Want to make sure there are things to look forward to. Considering dividing things a la persona with 1 class per 2 downtime actions... but i can just have classes be interesting. So i have a lot to think about.

So i guess... vote on a class as well if you want.

Biology is about pokemon as pokemon. There are other classes for items, team comp, pokemon as work forces, and so forth.

>>5473094
This is Dusknoir row, so it would be really cool to have a "reform" class taught by an actual ex-criminal that talks about their original motivations, how they reformed, and why. Maybe some sort of "civics" class where we have the opportunity to actually improve our social skills or learn just how awful it is to actually work (we are team Lazy after all).

"Well... now that you are asking... yes!" You hold up Mimikyu's ball. "When I was handed this ball... there was already a pokemon in it! Some bedsheet thing named Mimikyu!"

The man frowns. "That is troubling. We did not send such a pokemon... it might be a stray... Listen Gurie, come to the nurses office after class hours. I would like to, assist in negotiations. We will write it as volunteer hours and I will get you some pocket money for the facade." He holds out a safari ball in his hands. "Until then, take this, make sure no one knows you got a pokemon already."

You nod. "That sounds good, thanks Nimrah."

He smiles. "Anytime. Now head out, its almost time for social studies."

Oh that doesn't sound so bad.

Oh it was worse. Much worse.

"Fuhohoho!" A sequinned man with a pokeball trapped on his head struts down the class aisles. his scarf billowing in the nonexistant wind. "It is I, your teacher! Miror B!" He poses and a lot of the class claps. "Yes yes, it is I, former leader of Cipher, but I have reformed! Seen the light, no more shadow pokemon and darkness for me. " He poses. "Now the only thing I fight for is the spotlight!"

He claps his hand. "Now, you want out of the slammer? Then you gotta make society want you out. Got to show your bling baby. You gotta work FOR the people," Pose. "Gotta be a man OF the people!" Pose "And you will be freed baybay BY the people!" He raises his finger in the air, stealing the Leon look from Galar (Not that you actually know that but it looks tacky).

"So baby doll that is why Marco Cosmos pay me to be here and not on the dance floor. It is my job to help all of you find your groove with your pokemon and people, after all, I was someone who worked with shadow pokemon, I know exactly how to take the funky times away."

"Now! Baby dolls, its time for you all to be making friends. But to be makin friends you got to..." He poses. "Make a impression baybay!"

"That's why we are going to first work on poses. You got to capture with flair, you got to throw with finesse, and you got to win with style! Otherwise ya might as well not have a mon"

You sigh and get in the line, you ready your pose, moving your hands in a circle. And... you trip!

"a....ah!" You wave your harms helplessly and smash your face on the floor, your feet dangling in the air.

The music cuts. "Hold it hold it!" Miror struts over to you, looming over your splayed form. "What... was that style? That was not grace! That was not beauty! That wasn't anything!" He points at you. "Can you not even wave your arms right? You have... no swag!"

No style... You sniffle. "I...I did my best."

"If that was your best then, Madame, you are doomed." He moonwalks away, shades still staring at you. "You got to move like the world's staring at you. That's how you access... the REAL power!"

He spins and points a finger at you. "Detension! Remedial dance classes! The whole shebang!!! I am throwing the book at you Clownshoes!"

"But...I have a appointment with the nurse after school!" You protest as he brushes it off.

"You slippery polliwag... you think you can dance outta this one when you can't dance at all? You will take your detenion... After! And again for the week! The Month! Until you get it right!"

He poses and the spotlight shines on him, revealing glittering crystals on his arm band. "You think I joke? Nonono! The only comedy here is you. Gaze upon my wrists. My Z crystals! A aloha from Alola!" Pose.
"Their sacred dances give their pokemon partners sacred power... Without Z crystals of your own, you can not use Z moves... BUT The moves themselves! They are still there class!" Pose!

"The power within is expressed through the power without! The style! These will help you pull your pokemon's inner reserves!"

He twirls. "Now... I WAS supposed to give you all the options to pick your companion pokemon for your visit... but that seems dull... Instead! The Miror shall have you all pose from the heart! Show me your real you... and the B will provide!"

Twirl, and points to the sky. "Do not disappoint!"

The crowd cheers. This sucks, and now you have to do ANOTHER dance??? A interpretive one?

You can do this! I mean... you CAN'T do this dont be ridiculous... but you CAN try your best anyway!

You dig deep, tapping into your family training, your traditions, you take high steps, tiptoeing forward. Smile, arms splayed, head back, and laugh!

Well by laugh... you squek. However Miror claps anyway. "Fantastic! A bit hard on the follow through but I can see that, despite your lack of polish, I can see the spirit. Mischief! Anger! That's..." Pose. "Your true style!"

He snaps his finger and a TA runs in carrying a case of pokeballs. "No no, the special goods!" The TA's eyes widen, as they scramble back into the office.

"Now now!" Miror B lowers his shades. "This pokemon is... VERY special! Unruly even! If you even blink in its presence. It will tear you apart... BUT!" He snaps his fingers. "It is VERY strong! Can you handle it?"

The man comes with... a cage? A small pink gremlin biting at the bars. It looks at you with beedy purple pupils.

'So! You up for it? Your passion can handle a Impidink?"

So two nos, and two yes (one more enthusiastic then the other)

I will say this: This pokemon is uniquely stronger and rowdier then other impidinks, but if you refuse it you will get a less hostile pokemon who is also pretty good.. probbably a fire type.

>>5474290

fuck it.

"W-hwa? I am not really... that's a lot of responsibility and..." You deflate under the stare of the reformed villian. "...Okay."

Impidink has joined your team!

Class continues, People talk, pokemon are picked, mostly from the box of pokeballs that Miror has, but he does find a few other "passionate people' to give out his special caged animals to. One of them actually includes that Hartwell guy.

But time flies when you are ignoring people, and well... that's exactly what you did. Class ends and with two class periods finished, its your Work Period. And for your work... well.

You are Impidink, you can be named something else if that's what the woman wants.

You lived in a forest, brought here by Macro Cosmos, you had fun playing pranks and stealing supplies.

This must have gotten you in trouble. Because you are no longer in the forest. You were captured by men in white suits who took you to a room. Things happen but you dont really care that much about that. The cage was cold though you did not like the cage.

Now you are in a pokeball. It is warmer then the cage. The forest was warm. You like the pokeball.

A girl holds the pokeball, she seems weak. People like that get kidnapped by people in white suits.

Poor girl.

You look at Mimikyus ball, it seemed PRETTY panicked when you beat it all by yourself... "Uncle... can we... go easy on it?"

Nimrah raises a eyebrow. "Why?"

"...Well, I already cursed the Mimikyu, and it swore to be nice to me, I think it is PRETTY cowed. I am glad you are here to watch my back... but before we do good cop bad cop, I think we can just... ask them?"

"I mean... that isn't as fun but sure." He shrugs. "We got a bed."

You open a door to one of the "hopsital beds" and toss the Mimikyu on the bed, the bedsheet immediately scampers behind the pillow.

"Look! I'm harmless honest! I wasn't gonna do nothing! I can barely even do something! I was just supposed to recruit you!"

"T-t-t-to my gang!" The Mimikyu yips and tries to back up. You... you must have done a number on him with that curse. It is absolutely stricken by your presence. "These friends of mine... well acquaintances really! They were assembling this big ole team and they wanted Lazy in on it! When the slick man said no they said 'well aim for the horse!' and since you were already in jail well, strings were pulled and here I am! We were just gonna take over the world! With cuteness and stuff honest!"

You cross your arms and he starts stammering. "Listen! I'm just Mimikyu! I'm not legendary! I'm not even mythical! I'm just a loveable pokemon from the islands! A little fairy! You can trust fairies!"

"Who slipped you into my pokeball?" You ask as it looks around.

"Um... um, can i not say? They'll get mad at me. I don't want to be called a rat?"

You use your glare.

Mimikyu is paralyzed and can't move! "Okay! I don't know! A man in white! Big green glasses! He recruited me! Said he could use my "Grudge" to improve his pokemon... which means I must be really special right? I don't know what was going on after I was put in the ball..." His eyes sparkle! "Wait! I heard music! Really loud! Really bad music!"

You frown. "And that's how you knew who I was? You just assumed everything worked out?"

"Well... it did so..." Mimis fake head droops. "I just was excited to have friends for once?"

"Did you have friends? Or did you have a boss?" You ask as the Mimikyu stares at you.

"Is... is there a difference?" It asks as you nod.

"The boss asks you to do things, and they can be nice to you, and treat you well, but they determine the deal, they call the shots."

You point at Mimikyu. "But a friend compromises! They let you take lead on missions! And they share snacks!"

Mimikyu gasps. "Wh- Faba never lets me eat his snacks..."

You frown. "R-really? Not even the bad ones?"

Mimikyu gives you a sad look. "He only eats licorice, its ALL bad snacks..."

Wow this Faba guy sucks. "Well... I mean, I am making a gang! And while I might not be your friend, yet at least, I am willing to share my snacks."

The Mimi sniffles. "R-really? Even though I'm spooky?"

You smile. "I am a hex maniac, I like spooky."

Mimikyu stands up. "Well! Since Faba just traded me away, he clearly is..." He shrinks a bit. "I don't think he cared if this plan worked..."

Mimi bonks himself with his stick! "BUT! That's not the issue! If you don't succeed! Do it again!" He winks. "You got a deal Gurie!"

>Mimikyu has joined your party!!!

Mimikyu vanishes back into your pokeball as you turn to Nimrah and frown. "Who the hell is Faba?"

Nimrah shrugs. "I don't really watch the news. I am a..." He tilts his head in thought. "Scientist. Yes, that's right... I can tell you they are not from Kanto. Based on what your partner said about grudges... perhaps he is some pokemon psychologist?"

After a few moments wracking your brain, you remember Faba, hes the dumb guy with the goggles!

No not Tom, different goggles. He works with the Friendship Forward LLC, its a group formed by Macro Cosmos and Aether Foundation to work on developing "low income areas" and revitalizing disaster zones... of course, Orre is nothing except disaster zones so they ran in here with force.

Faba apperantly keeps getting demoted because of a willingness to do the worst things his bosses tell him to do, and being happy to take the fall. He's broken the barrier to dimensions before with a machine Lusamine funded (Before she got hospitalized), and thus while he got demoted to a intern, when the FFC came about he's been steadily rising in ranks thanks to some stuff with getting pokemon in the new safari zones to cooperate.

Speaking of... the Friendship Forward Institute, filled with white suited philistines trying at philanthropy. They own the prison (Hence the name Rose Academy) and your dad has been hassling them for a while.

If Faba was bossing around Mimikyu, and to "use his hatred in his experiments" he must... be doing some hate research? Well the FFC DID buy out the Pokemon Lab, maybe they are researching the Purity Chamber? Who knows.


You pocket Mimikyu and wave goodbye feeling a bit smarter for the whole experience.

"Do... I HAVE to come with you?" Tom says being dragged by the arm to dance class. "Miror B smells weird and he plays music too loud."

"Listen Tom, if Miror. B is so weird then who KNOWS what he'll do to a girl alone! I need a witness! A bodyguard!" You turn and point at Tom. "And so far your the best one for the job!"

"Why not Carrie? She at least is on your team."

"Carrie hasn't fought a ghost with me yet, your a... mostly known entity! And you can play on your switch while I am working so its less boring for you then Carrie."

Tom sighs but continues to let you drag her.

"Ah! Fantastic!" Miror B claps as you entire the atrium area where you were inducted into the school yesterday. The chairs have been put away revealing a large... pokemon arena???

"This mon cheri! Is our dance floor! You have the passion but no moves." Miror B stands on the podium the principal was clutching yesterday. "So I will SHOW you the moves."

He splays his arm out. "You won't try unless you see for yourself.. the power of Personallity!" He reaches for his belt and grabs two pokeballs, tossing them out with a twirl.

A Ludicolo dances beneath a large Pelliper, ran starting to fall in the area as Miror dances. "Do not worry no, it is practice!"

Since this is Orre, there are only one real way to fight... double battles.

"W-wait!" You panic looking around, you can't use Mimikyu right now! That would be suspicious. Suspicous people get targets on their back. "C-can't we just... work on footwork!"

Miror B claps. "Work on your feet baby doll! Dance while fighting!"

"...B-but I don't even HAVE a second pokemon you only gave me the one."

Miror twirls. "No... worries!" He tosses another safari ball at you. "Freshly ordered! Normally I'd ask you to work in a team, teach you trust skills, but..." He looks at Tom and shudders. "I can see why you would not want that."

Tom's switch turns on, and Miror fliches.

You... think Tom scares the teacher? Weird. Miror B is a teacher... you guess Miror is more flash then fiber... that is a saying right?

You toss the pokeballs and Gremlin runs circles around your new lended pokemon, a glittering dragon who seems to just sit there watching Gremlin waste their energy.

The music changes keys as Miror B claps. "We have waited enough! The beat has no pause, and our battle shall not be paused any longer! Show your bling and let Miror shine you!"

The spotlights focus on Miror B his z crystals glittering.

>>Tyrannical Teacher Miror B. demands a battle!


You got two basic pokemon and Ludicolo and Pelipper are fresh, Miror SAID hes going easy on you... but he also looks like a liar?

AND it's raining.

"Alright!" You point at Pelipper. Gremlin! Er, Jangmo-o! Take the bird down!

Miror claps. "Samba! Use fake out on the pink one. Pelipper, Tailwind!"

Your pokemon leap in the air, Gremlin reaching his arm out to do... it LOOKS like some sort of energy was gathering but Ludicolo skates accross the water and slams both of his maracas into Gremlin's face. The imp stumbles back, dazed a bit.

Jangmo instead slinks from beneath the pelipper as the bird starts beating its wings faster, pushing against the wind the big beak bird was beating against him. He coils in a leap and... tackles Pelipper.

Tackle? Isn't that... kinda boring from a pokemon that's so musical.

"And volia! The stage is set! Now... let me show you my Power Pose!" Miror B shouts, one hand on his shades and another pointing straight at you.

Gremlin is a prankster... despite you not having seen them do any pranks... but in theory they are better at status effects then simple damage. So... you should play to their strengths right?

"Alright Gremlin, disable the other two before the pose move, then Jangm-o, attack!

Gremlin nods, and struts forward, raising his hands, then lowering them as he emits a GHASTLY wail.

The sound is shrill and deep at the same time, as if two pitches are played at the same time that rattle bones and break glass and you SORTOF want to puke (Which you also felt when you were supposed to dance in public but its worse now).

Ludicolo and Pelipper DEFINETLY hear it too, so does Miror, and Tom... toms wearing ear buds.

Pellippers flapping gets disoriented, off tempo as Ludicollo looks around disoriented. They are both confused.

...Do Impidinks know supersonic?

Miror B, whatever super move he had planned, seems to have forgotten, his hands over his ears. Ludicolo scrambles for a bit but shakes his maracas, a large spray of hot water gushing out and stricking Jangmo-o in the face.

Jangmo gives a pained yip as it charges, hitting Pelipper with its tail. The bird is sent flying and vanishes into their pokeball.

"Coco!" A bright yellow bird flies out, its eyes dull and listless.

The Oricoro sortof stands there, watching the enemy birds waiting for a move.

Tom looks up and puts his switch down.

"Owowowow! No fair messing with the Miror's groove!" He frowns and looks at Oricorio. "Oh... well she's not meant to be out." He raises his pokeball and switches the Pelipper back out.

You are... probbably not going to win this to be honest. Depending on HOW much Miror is holding back, his pokemon are evolved, yours are not, and you dont know either of them. You can't see how you win this in a fair fight.

However.... you don't HAVE to fight fair. By Miror's logic his poses, which he hasn't used yet, involve coordinating with his pokemon... and you can just... stop that.

"Gremlin, Jangmo-o, hassle the Ludicolo! Throw everything you got, disable their attacker!" You throw your hand out, doing your best to put some oomph in your order...

Your pose seems to get through to your friends as they immediately leap into action. Gremlin rubs his hands, static building until it flips its palms at Ludicolo. Electic waves are hurled towards Samba, the pokemon giving a startled chortle as its paralyzed.

As you said in class, this slows its speed down, so even with the water its swift swim doesn't help... The bird however, is not so impaired.

Pelipper swoops down and plucks Gremlin, its beak outstretch as it.... EATS YOUR POKEMON!??!

Gremlins just trapped in Pellipers beak, the apathetic imps legs dangling from the orange bill as it crunchs raw flying damage down at your fairy.

Your dragon follows up, sliding towards Ludicolo and patting large eyes at Samba.

You... guess Jangmo-o is a girl... and apperantly Samba... is a scalie.

"Co...lo...lo!" The singing pokemon, despite their stun is very excited, hearts covering his eyes as the pokemon is swimming in the hurricane of love. He swoons, and slips on the water and bashes his head, hurting himself in his confusion.

The Pelipper is slightly dinged, but so is Gremlin, and Pelipper has the air advantage.

Jangmo-o is pretty scalded but is otherwise fine.

Ludicolo however, is disoriented, nauseated, barely able to move, and is in love with his sleep paralyze dragon. He is physically, mentally, and spiritually disabled. If that pokemon manages to pass gass, much less successfully hit a move, it would be a miracle.

"Ah... Samba.... you are killing me." Miror says with a sigh as he withdrew his emotionally distraught partner. "That's a dirty move Gurie... but that's what it takes in show biz. But Disco will show you why you do not bite the big dog."

...Pelipper is not a dog? This man is weird.

It is still raining indoors.

You need to make a move on this wingull before Miror throws the book at you.

"Gremlin! Thunderwave!" Obeying your command, Gremlin seems to come alive as it blasts a wave of lightning at the Peliper, perhaps incensed by its attack earlier.

The creature is buffeted by electric energy, but, with the benefit of tailwind in play its still faster then your dragon. "Now... rock em!" He twirls arms splayed, until he raised them in the air and lowers em, duel finger gun, at Gremlin "LIKE A HURICAAAAAAAAAAAAAANE!!!!"

>Miror B uses Finisher Pose, Special attack dramatically increases, Attack dramatically increases! Defense harshly falls! Special defense harshly falls!

>Pelipper uses Hurricane!

A horrific whirlwind starts brewing up, lightning flashes as things start to spin... if this is the power of poses... you will need to risk it all here!

You spread your legs and hold your arms out, rearing your head back until... Stomp!

>Gurie uses Sumo Pose! Her team hunkers down and braces for impact! Speed dramatically reduced.

Your group, balked by your own actions hold fast, Jongmo-o smashing his hands into the floorboard and bracing. Gremlin watches and... grabs Jongmo-os tail.

The wind rockets, rages and Gremlin is sent up and down and left and right, but never loses his grip. Cuts form on your pokemon, bruises... but they do not fall.

The hurricane queits eventually, with Pelipper winded a bit demoralized that his big finisher didn't... finish.

"Now Jongmo-o! Dragontail!"

Jongmo-o rears his tail back and hurls Gremlin with a massive force... that as a fairy, the impidimp does not feel at all. The creature soars towards Pelipper and then... you think its eyes flicker a bit, that spark of hostility emerges.

A purplish energy emerges from his foot as he kicks Pelipper, the strange attack just brutalizing the weakened mon.

Pelipper falls like a sack of bricks, your mon wailing its tiny fists on the bird all the way down.

"Squaaa...." Pelipper moans as it falls, Gremlin standing up, and starts walking back.

Then it spits on the floor, rubbing its nose.

You win!

"Awww... not groovy." The rain dies down as Miror returns his pokemon. "Didn't really get to show off the power of my poses... but..." His shades twinkle. "Do you not understand them now? You did use one?"

You look over at the room, watching the stadium just... slowly repair itself. "I... think so. I can use poses to help my commands get followed."

Miror snaps his fingers. "Exactly! Remember a pokemon battle is about the trainer, the pokemon are our ways to express ourselves, who we raise, how we train them, how we command them. It's all about YOU, and thus YOU need to put just as much of yourself into the battle as you do preparing it."

That sounds... right... but kinda weird. "What about... friendship and stuff? Isn't that what pokemon are about."

He chuckles. "Ah maybe, maybe! But no one is excited to see the Ludicolos but me, they come for Miror B." He lowers his sunglasses and wink. "But a few of my rivals always were a fan of that friendship and love, and they did shine. So hold onto that optimism and we will see where it takes you."

>You unlocked Poses! Poses are special moves that one can do DURING battle to confer extra effects on your teammates. Poses require Dazzle, which is reduced by repeated uses of a pose, especially when you lose. You can only use one pose of the same type once per fight, and they all have side effects. If you do not win with your finisher your own pokemon are likely finished!
>Do not just win with style! Style to win!!!

Miror B hands you a scrap book. "Keep track of your poses with this. There are cameras everywhere here, and they watch all your fights. When you got a good move going, you can get the guards to get you a picture so you can memorialize that style."

That's great but... you look at the arena and the little indent disco left. "What WAS that move Gremlin used at the end? It was all purply... and I didn't ask it to use that move."

Miror laughs. "Well I told you it was special yes? Perhaps it just picked up what you were putting down? Or maybe you need to get some badges from the guard captains to get your special partner to fall in line? As for the purple... well maybe it was brutal swing? Or foul play? It is a dark type and if anything was going to knock me down, foul play would've been the way."

You look back at Tom who is looking at Miror B. You aren't sure your convinced, you feel like you would recognize those moves... Y-you aren't stupid right?

"Anyway!" Miror twirls. "That pose lit a fire in me, and you still have detention! We will practice! Now!"

You were forced to rehearse the Sumo pose until dinner.

You and Tom are waiting in line at the mess as Tom starts to whisper behind you. "Hey... Gurie?" Your goggled friend's head dart around conspiratorially. "I think... something is up with Gremlin."

You have 7500 LP total with 2500 being added thanks to beating Miror B. Even if he was holding back.
You can save your money and eat... potato and cheese, or you can spend a extra 1000 lp to order a advanced meal, or 500 to order a topping like meat. 1000x per star, 500x per topping star, the topping must match the level of the food so you cant put wagyu meat on a boiled potato.

Spending on luxuries will improve living standards and help you bond with people and pokemon especially if you share. BUT if you fail to hold up those living standards then lows may hit harder.

Promotions to upperclass hood (Because its a prison there are "evaluations" to determine level not age (Thats why Tom is a freshman still despite being here longer then you)) can provide a permanent boost to luxuries. Black market may also provide ways to get under the table benefits)
