Testrun meme (November & December)

TESTRUN MEME

1) Harvest time! The Agricultural Tower needs a hand harvesting the crops. How is that working out for you and your Pokemon?

2) It's starting to get a bit chilly out! Snow is now blanketing the ground and as an unfortunate side effect Ice Types are now on a rampage through Union. They seem to be having a lot of fun, but it's inconveniencing everyone else, what do you do?

3) Soulfasting is upon us, and festivals abound. Residents have taken to one of the larger parks in Union to celebrate. There are delicious sweets, performances on stage and other spectacles. Some people from the audience are even being pulled up on stage! How are you celebrating?

4) With Autumn coming to a close, many trees within the Verdant Forest have shed their leaves into enormous piles. Unfortunately, this extends beyond the forest and into Union itself, and there is now a big leaf problem. You get to clean it up, have fun!

5) Wildcard! Come up with a prompt!

[2.] [John didn't mind the cold! In fact it was kind of nice. Sometimes. You know, when he didn't have to shovel it or anything. He's walking down the street innocently enough when something whizzes past him.]

Whoa!

[He turns just in time to kick his intangibility into gear and let the second snowball pass through his ghostly form untouched. He spots a snickering Pokemon duck behind a corner.]

Ha! You thought you had me didn't you-- [PIFF! Right in the face.]

Oh man, you've done it now! Prepare for your snowy demise!

[4.] [Cleaning? I think you mean hiding in piles of leaves in his Gastly form and popping out to scare the bajeezus out of people. Fucking ghost types, right?]

[After a loud BOO! he will tearfully try to apologize, though it's somewhat ineffective.]

You should have seen your face! Sorry, hehehehe.

snowball option

[actsmagnificent]

Bear?

[ Don't round that corner too fast, John. Whatever splattered you has made a run for it

but there's eight feet of bear with a little red bow tied to one ear just sitting here enjoying the weather. The Beartic's head slowly turns.... ]

[thewindything]

[He's all about rounding that corner too fast. He only catches sight of the towering bear early enough to make himself go intangible and slide right through the pokemon.]

[instead of doing the smart thing and floating to a stop, he goes solid again. The momentum makes him slide across the icy ground and land right into a snow drift.]

Uugghh...

[actsmagnificent]

[ ...did she just feel a chill? Through her fur?

Oh goodness that little boy went through her fur he passed right through her oh gracious sakes ]

Bear!!!! [ Beartic jumps to her feet, paws clasped over her mouth. Don't scare her like that!!!

-not that she would lose her deportment over such an event, mind you. She's a lady. Clearing her throat, she looks down at the human. Ahem. A-are you okay? ] Bear?

[thewindything]

[The tiny human pokes his head out of the snow, glasses askew and very cold.]

Huwha?

[He rubs his face and fixes his glasses to try and figure out who's talking to him. Oh, its the giant bear. He shakes his hair free of some snow and]

Hahaha, wow that was pretty dumb. No, I'm fine, don't worry! Did you see the punk that flew by here earlier?

[actsmagnificent]

[ A single shake of this massive head. Her apologies. ] Bear.

[ Beartic lumbers to her feet and looks around. You were in pursuit, huh? She fiddles with her paws, then looks down and takes a deep breath, deciding to be brave. W-would you possibly...require assistance chasing him? She is quite adept at navigating this terrain, and you, well. She wouldn't want to be rude... ] Bear bear.

[thewindything]

[John gets to his feet, brushing off as much snow as he can. He blinks up at the Beartic.]

Oh. Yeah, sure. How good are you at throwing snowballs?

[He grins.]

[actsmagnificent]

B--

[ Beartic cuts off her protest early. She'd been about to point out that as a lady, she is above such unseemly behavior, but it sounds as if such drastic measures might become necessary in the near future. This requires deep, momentary thought.

Then she's raising a mighty claw and clenching it into a fist. She's excellent at it. Just say when. ] Bear.

Oh the hell with studying right now

[ladyofluminosity]

[It's unclear just who threw the snowball, but both Lux and Camille appear to be walking away at the same pace. The Dragonite is swishing her tail a bit suspiciously, however.

Bring it, ghost boy.]

thats the spirit! wait-

[thewindything]

[OH IT'S ON.]

[Hey, check it out- that's a snow ball getting lobbed at you both! Though if you turn around you won't find anyone there, how spooky.]

[ladyofluminosity]

[Camille seems to anticipate it at least--almost like she knew it was coming--but Lux is left completely unaware. She swings around quickly.]

Hey, that's--Huh?

[She looks around a bit wildly. Where did that come from?!

Camille seethes. That's. Cold. And kind of hurt. Seems someone didn't think her cunning plan through.]

4!!

[evokedorpheus]

[Ghost-types.

Ah, well, it's not like Minato can complain too much--he figures he really ought to be used to it by now since he's bonded to mostly Ghost and Dark-types. Instead, he offers a grin and waves a hand dismissively.] Priceless, huh? Been at this for a while?

[thewindything]

[The Gastly snickers and then in a Poof! It's an actual teenager standing there instead.]

Yep! Though, you didn't get nearly as scared as some people. Maybe I'm losing my touch.

[evokedorpheus]

Nah, just used to Ghost-type antics. [A Pumpkaboo pops out of the hood of his jacket and squeaks in greeting. He chuckles.] Had I been anyone else, you probably could've got me!

[thewindything]

[He'll settle for that, then. He spots the pumpkaboo and feigns horror.]

Holy crap, don't turn around! There's this really spooky ghost stuck in your jacket!

[evokedorpheus]

Oh no, what ever will I do? [He chuckles and reaches back, only for the Pumpkaboo to wriggle out of the hood and circle the two of them. He settles down onto Minato's head. Minato glances up at the pumpkin ghost.]

Haaaa... Suemitsu's harmless. Mostly.

[thewindything]

[John snickers.]

Nah, you got a class A Spook-Meister on your hands. You'd better be carefule.

[evokedorpheus]

[Minato's eyebrows shoot up as he grins. Suemitsu echoes John's snicker.]

I'll try, at least. Being a Dark-type gives me a little room to slip up every now and then.

[thewindything]

[Ohh noo spooky ghost snickering, this can never be good.]

Ooo, well I guess it doesn't hurt to be prepared.

[ Curious look.]

I haven't seen you around before. You usually in the Vale?

4

[isreallyasun]

[Those apologies are lost on Sho as his first instinct is to try and punch the Gastly that came the heck out of no where. Sorry John, you now have a crazy-red head trying to throttle you for that jump scare.]

[thewindything]

[WHOA. That would scare him if not for the face that he's made of poison gas right now and kind of not solid.]

Geez! Whoa, calm down! It was just a prank!

[isreallyasun]

Oh yeah? Well, it was a frikkin lame one!

[He punctuates it with another attempted punch.]

[thewindything]

[To which his fist passes through.]

Dude- I know you're mad but I kind of feel obligated to inform you that I'm literally made of poisonous gas right now. You probably should stop punching me.
