Testrun meme (January & February)

TESTRUN MEME

1) New Years Celebration! There are fireworks all over the city! And that means your Pokémon are probably hiding under the bed. No matter how big they are. What do?

2) There's been some heavy snowfall and the connecting bridges are overloaded. They're really slick and icy and need to be plowed for safety. You and your Pokémon have been selected for this "honor". Have fun!

3) With the winter coming, the Hot Springs have been overwhelmed by an abundance of monkey Pokémon. They've been attacking citizens who are trying to soak in the pools and it's creating a big problem. Go resolve it!

4) Caldera has been working on a project to restore some of their fortifications, and that means they need strong trainers and Pokémon to help carry and work the stone and metal. Time to help out!

5) The Tropical Island has become something of a destination in the wintertime, and it's getting really crowded. Some Pokémon researchers need to conduct studies on the volcano but the throng of tourists is simply too much. Help clear a path!

6) Wildcard! Make your own prompt!

You can still turn back.

[ it's a matter of fact thing, and Thorin re-checks the knot, which will hold him, and secures his backpack. whether or not Bilbo comes along is not his business or his choice, and the Calderan doesn't seem to care either way. ]

[ briskly, with a raised eyebrow: ]

You just said it yourself that it's a bit late for that. [ the nerve of it! as if a body isn't allowed to be a bit apprehensive about climbing down darksome holes of unknown depth. ] No, I'm coming along, I just needed a moment. Though I'm sure you'll forgive me if my abseiling technique isn't quite up to scratch.

[ ah. it's a particularly Tookish day, then. ]

totally asleep and not at all tagging. nope.

[ it's hard not to point out that he could've made better time alone, so Thorin counts his blessings in that the shorter man at least seems to have made up his mind. if he's going to keep up this kind of tone, though, Thorin isn't sure he'll be able to keep from snapping back in earnest. ]

I'll go first.

[ that way Bilbo can watch first if he feels unsure. and if he makes too grave a mistake, there will be someone below strong enough to catch him. but before anyone goes anywhere... climbing harnesses. he pulls his out of the side of his pack, disentangling it. ]

Did you bring gloves?

[ he had better have. ]

i applaud ur sleeptagging technique

[roadsprings]

Oh - yes, half a minute--

[ with that, he begins fumbling in his pockets, attempting to perform that impossible feat of extracting gloves from pockets without pulling everything else in there out with them in the process. once they're free, he shakes them out a little and waves them slightly. ]
