Gah...braindead dudes,can't RP no more..atleast until another posts.X_X
 
{ooc| Me and my dog went 'walkies' in the rain... Bleh... Glad you guys like it. She's ferocious, no? Please tell me whyyyy the 'A' is capitalised...? Pleeeeeease?}

Maxie fidgeted. "Well, Rai...he was in the shadows... So I didn't really see. But he had more spare tyres than KwitFit Garage...if you get what I mean." Maxie laughed. To her, lying was easier than breathing. Her imagination was horrible - but that was what made her so believable.

She gave Jena a sad sort of smile. "When there's nothing you can do about, pain's not all that bad. Oh, and Minerva...my sneasel. I got her about ten minutes ago."

Fang blushed scarlet. {I'm sorry! I was...just thinking about Sephy...}
 
Ooc-
Yeah..she does look scary in a appealing way,doesn't she?
*continues looking at Maxie*

*throws Feebas at Titan*
Ask him Charon!!I'm too busy trying to see what wondeeful you've done with the drawing.XD
*goes back to Maxie*
Ic-
Jena like out a small laugh as Maxie 'described' the man,deciding to believe her,even though she wasn't entirely sure what spare tyres meant.She had to get out more often.

"Pain isn't bad?"the girl pondered over what Maxie said for a moment or so.

{Oh no,I don't mind.}Ryne shook her hands and told the Zubat,who was suddenly scarlet in color.

{.....So that Sephy is a good friend I presume??}Ryne asked,placing her head on one arm,feeling very interested now.
{If you don't mind my saying that is.}the Ralts remembered her manners and added,smiling to Fang.

{Bleh...when are we getting out of here??}Cascade grew tired of waiting and started running around.

"A SneasAl you got ten minutes ago why??"Jena couldn't help but ask Maxie,noticing her Mudkip's movements.

"Did all of you fill out the forms yet?I think we should start searching for Sephy now."the girl asked.
 
OOC: *Sigh* It's all about Yibber's obsession with misspelling SneasEl. I made a remark about that so now she's trying to make a nuisance of herself by highlighting the habit. By the way, will Cascade be becoming a SVampert during the RP Yibber? XP

IC:

Rai grinned at Maxie's explanation. Spare tyres? he mused That sounds like the kind of expression that Chupon would use. he wasn't quite accustomed to this way of phrasing but somehow the tone of the expression brought on an image of someone who was...how do you say...stout, big-boned, heavyset as it were. "I see." the boy replied at last. Somehow he had a strange feeling about this explanation but he couldn't quite put his finger on why. Ashura might have, but Rai couldn't.

"A Sneasel you say?" he asked as the conversation shifted on to Minerva, watching the dark type who seemed to be in deep concentration at the moment. He had seen a lot of Sneasels in his day, but his mother had always told him that they prefered frigid and dimly lit environments like caves on tall mountains. Sunny Zephyr Town seemed like a far too warm environment for them. "Where did you get it?" he asked at last.

At the mention of the forms, Rai's attention turned to his own half-finished one. "Will be done in a moment." he said, raising his pen and quickly setting in on the fields again, although his attention remained focused on the conversation.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, the man at the Fisherman's Bounty grew increasingly annoyed with the lack of response from Minerva. "Come in agent E67." he sent out, focusing his thoughts on the message "Repeat, come in agent E67. What is your status? Why aren't you answering me?"
 
Ah!The mis-spelling of SWampert...
IT BURNS!!!!>_<
And,I am not trying to make a nuisance of myself....or am I?XD

And...considering the question you asked Titan..
Hm...
Cassy might evolve into a SWampert...
Maybe only a Marshtomp..
I'll see,most likely a Swampert.
*realises*
You asked tha question to torment me didn't you Titan?!*ish very confuzzled,really!* o.0

*waits for Charon to post*

Can't think up of what ta RP,since Jena asked the same ques. Rai did.
Pluse,dinner!!
*runs off to food*

Before that...
SNEASAL!!!!!!!!SNEASAL!!!SNEASAL!!!!
PWHHEEEE!!!!!!!!>D
 
Maxie bit her lip. "Oh, I found her wandering around. I think someone must of abandonned her..." she gave a sigh. "I don't know who would just dump such a sweet little pokemon..." She felt herself burning up, but luckily Maxie wasn't the sort of girl that blushed when embarressed or cornered. Instead, she stared at her gloves scutinously.

Fang turned to answer Ryne. {Not really... We knew her Mum, though, she used to call us 'ungainly scruffballs' and scrub us down.} he pulled a face at the memory. It was hard to imagine Maxie or Fang any where near soapy water. {But...her Mum was Maxie's best friend, Luna's pokemon. When Luna disappeared... Sephy's Mummy was worried in case Sephy got stolen. So Maxie took care of her... even though we like poison types.} He said the last bit extremely proudly.


Yes sir, sorry sir... I was listening in. Minerva chewed her nail. He's said nothing ground breaking yet, only confirmed his identity... she eyed Maxie darkly. Are you sure she's the agent we wanted? So far she hasn't done anything remotely bloodthirsty...or paticularily clever.

{ooc| Sowwe, I am slow. Doing homework...}
 
Ooc-
No worries Charon!^^
Ah....homework.
Glad tha my Finals just finished,now go skool everyday,nothing to do.We all just sit around in class and play Blackjack.XD

Ic-
"Wow...."Jena was really surprised by the fact that somebody would abandon a SneasAl.Especially one which looked like Minerva.That was it,the girl was sure that she needed to get out more.

{Luna?}Ryne repeated the name,before covering her mouth with one small paw.
{I'm sorry,I couldn't help but say it out,you don't need to tell me.You've told me enough,I think I'm being too nosey.}the Ralts did a perfect curtsy to the Zubat,one which would've made the helpers and Jena's mother proud.

{You,like Poison types??}Cascade jumped inbetween Ryne and Fang.

{Urg...could you stop being so impolite?Honestly,I don't know why the Madam allowed Jena to keep you!}Ryne scolded the Mudkip,who drooped his head down.

{Not my fault I can't help but be like that,and why do you have ta' call Jena's mama 'Madam' anyway??}

{Its better than 'Mama'.}

{Jena calls her 'Mama'.}

The Ralts opened her mouth to argue,but no words came out.Cascade smirked with delight.
 
OOC: Seriously Yibber. Cut down on the capitalizing, tis' bad RPing form. <_<

IC:

"That's terrible..." Rai said, shaking his head "To abandon a pokémon like that." he sighed "Are many people in the world so...cruel?"

Chupon tilted his head at the conversation going on between the pokémon, particularly between Cascade and Ryne.

{You know Ryne...} he said at last, {I think Rai's mum would have liked you. She's always fussing about etiquette and whatnot.} the little gecko put on a queen's english accent, taking up a haughty posture {I mean, 'taking care to adress others in a manner that is in accordance with their social standing'.}

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The it is as I expected it to be agent E67." the man replied, twirling his moustache and leaning back in his chair a bit "It is not the girl's mind that is important, but rather her association with Team Rocket. As you know they have been attempting to muscle in on our territory lately, and the story of a heartless Rocket operative abducting a local noble..." he smirked in a self-satisfied manner "It would certainly help to tip the scales in our favour in this conflict, I also have it on good authority that there is more to this particular simian than meets the eye. I intend to find out what. Keep me informed, agent, over and out."

Oh goshness,me mom's gonna kill me,knowing tha me used the comp. so long,Yibber'd better off it now...or maybe she won't come out and bite my head off....Hm...
Bleh,I'll try my luck.XD

And fine Titan,spoil Yibber's tormenting why don't you??XD
*kidding,just kidding....*

Ic-
"Welcome to the real world,Rai."Jena sighed.

As Chupon told Ryne that Rai's mother would've liked her,the little Ralts couldn't help but blush.

{Ahem...Excuse me for blushing.}the Ralts smiled,feeling her cheeks redden.

{Yeah,Ryne's talked like that since I can remember....}Cascade nodded to Chupon.
{I don't really address people according to their social stature....I just,do.}Ryne tried to explain,but it really didn't make much sense.

{You okay Ryne?I usually have a hard time understanding what you say,but this time,its really,really hard!!}Cascade asked the Ralts.

{Forgive my behaviour.Chupon's statement just took be by surprised is all.}
 
{ooc| Yay! Alter spelt 'Mum' the English way! *pats you on the back* *is very proud of her heritage*}

A smile played on Maxie's lips at Rai's comment. "There're things far more horrible out there than getting your freedom." she murmered quietly, suddenly seeming far older than her fourteen years. "Compared to being used for evil... To being tortured, or beaten, or to be rid of your free will... Facing the world alone is a feeble punishment." For a moment, she stared off into the distance, and for an istant, her purple eyes seemed to widen with sorrow. Then, she blinked, and it was gone. She was frowning heavily, looking to What-A-Mess, who had been dribbling on the floor.
"Return." she muttered, and the pokemon vanished.

{Don't worry!} Fang said, grinning. {I like to talk. Maxie tells me not to trust so much.} He stuck his tongue out at this. {Of course we love posion types? Have you ever seen a finer pokemon than me?} he said sarcastically, sounding scarily like his trainer.
He yawned lazily. {I never met Maxie's Mum. Dr. Kosloski said she was poor, and was a... scarlet woman! Naughty Naughty!}
Maxie gave him a hard stare, and he fell silent.
"They don't need my life's story!" she scolded, and Fang giggled and nuzzled her.
 
OOc-
Eh?What's wrong with spelling it 'mom'
*ish all hurt*T_T
XD

Ic-
Jena listened intently to Maxie as she murmered,not quite getting the first part.The girl only managed to catch the last part.

"Facing the world alone is a feeble punishment."

Jena ran over the words again and again in her head.Wow,Maxie was really more than what the girl had thought at first.She was sure that Maxie had gone through much more than she ever would,it was just a kind of...gut feeling they called it.

{Yes Fang,your wings,they are certainly appealing.I myself have not met much Poison types,but...}the Ralts stopped in mid-sentence and a small grin appeared on her face,thinking up of how to continue her sentence.

{Hey,Fang sounds like Maxie!!}Cascade pointed out,jumping up and down.
 
OOC: There ain't nothing wrong with 'mom' as such, I just think 'mum' sounds...dunno, softer and more...well, motherly. ^^ Although of course my preference could be partially because one of my English teachers is Welsh and the other is English so they both use 'mum'.

IC:

Rai listened in silence to Maxie's words, repeating them in his mind. Being used for evil? Tortured? Beaten? Loosing your free will? he frowned, Maxie sounded as if she was speaking of experience. Certainly, the girl had acted very harshly when they first met, as if she was expecting nothing short of the worst from him. But surely she hadn't been forced to endure all that?

"Maxie..." he said quietly, "Those things you said...do you mean-? That is, has someone-?" the words seemed to stick in his throat "-to you?" he concluded at last, his voice barely audible to anyone else in their vicinity, although it was probably equally hard to understand their meaning even if one heard.

Chupon watched Ryne's reaction with curiosity, the meaning of her words completely escaping him as the Ralts began explaining. The Treecko remained silent, unsure of what to say.
 
OOc-
Uh...wait..
*checks*
Yup,mom's coming out to bite my head off in..5 min.XD

Ic-
Jena slowly caught on to what Rai was saying.Taking a noticable glance at Maxie's hand.

"That?"

{Oh my...}Ryne stopped talking to the pokemon and covered her mouth with both hands,clearly worried about what Maxie was saying.The Ralts hugged onto her trainer's leg,out of pure instinct Jena supposed.

{Eh??Eh??}Cascade didn't seem to follow as well as the others.
 
Maxie turned to face him, her eyes empty and expressionless. Then they narrowed, changing so rapidly, suddenly filled with hate and loathing for this stupid, stuttering teenager that stood infront of her. She gritted her teeth, revealing strangely sharp, curled inscisors. Then she dragged her eyes away, and swallowed. "Keep your nose out where it doesn't belong, boy."

Fang glanced up at her. He poked her with his wing tip. {Calm down, stop stressing.} he urged her, sounding strangely whispy. Her frown deepened, and Fang took this as his cue to flutter to Maxie shoulder and nuzzle against her neck again. She smiled, stroking his ears lightly.
Fang turned to answer the Ralts. {I've met lots! Lots of zubats, and grimers, and nidorans, and venomoths... they're pretty... I met a muk, too, it was scary. I hope Messy doesn't evovle...} He waved his wings in a distracting manner. Sure enough, Maxie seemed to untense; without realising it, she had balled her hands into fits.

{ooc| Nothing's wrong with 'mom', but it seems weird to me. So does 'color', 'center', and all those other spellings...
I love describing Fang. Bats are one of my favourite animals. They are so clever and pretty!}
 
Ooc-
Oh yeah..should not be on the comp. righ now but..*cannot resist*
I think tha we spell it 'colour' over here.
Oh,'center' and 'centre' I though tha both were used for different words only??Ah....whaever...me language=no good.

Ic-
"Sorry Maxie,but we...we just wanted to help."Jena said,feeling a little hurt as the girl turned away from her and Rai.
As the girl calmed down,Jena had another urge as Maxie balled up her hands.The girl,slowly reached out her hand,and patted Maxie lightly on the shoulder.

"If you don't want to tell fine,I guess it was our fault for being nosey..."Jena withdrew her hand,wondering if that was just the right thing to do.

{Right....bats...lots of Zubats..}Ryne answered Fang absent-mindely,she was feeling really sad emotions coming from Maxie.Making the Ralts,feel a bit down as well.

Ooc-
Right,this time it was me dad who caught me.Darn!>_<
 
Maxie sighed, and turned to face Jena. "Sorry. I didn't... I didn't want to hurt you. I get angry." She then took Jena's hand in her own, and smiled shyly at Rai. "Please. Just promise me you won't pry."

Fang screeched. {Nice one, Maxie.} It wasn't often she managed to contorl her temper. Jena had done the right thing. {You managed to-}
"Sh'up, Fang." Maxie cut him off, looking grumpy.

{ooc| Bye Yibber! Melissa, we need a post from you in PS...sorta...We shouldn't really let it die, it's a disgrace to Deadly Aim.
Aaaaaand... a new member was reading our roleplay a while back, he says it's really good! Yay! Go us!}

"Allright..." Rai replied quietly, having finally gathered up his verbal skills. "I'm sorry I upset you. It was never my intention. I promise I won't do it again." he fell silent again, quickly finishing up his form as he pondered what could possibly have happened for to Maxie that would be so painfull. Her words echoed in his head once more, but after a while the boy finally managed to silence them, promptly writing down the last piece of necessary information on his league sign-up and returning the pen to its holding place.

"Well, I suppose we should hand these forms in." he said, attempting to steer the conversation back to a more mundane track.
 
OOC: Ah, it only took me twenty minutes to catch up this time! XD

By the way... when's poor Flissie gonna post again. She must be pretty far behind by now....

Oh and Charon, I love your drawing! I really can't see anything wrong with it though. And you know what? I can't draw hands either. I swear for my contest entry, I had to work on Misty's hand for like twenty minutes. >.<; I can draw thumbs up hands and fists, and a hand giving the peace/victory sign, but a hand open? THAT'S HARD!!!!! >________<

Ahem, and now onto the IC post:


Zachary
==========

"Hm...," was all that Zachary could muster to say about Maxie. He was a bit uncomfortable when talking about such personal matters, and it was clear that Rai was pushing her a bit too much. Zachary knew that he would not want to reveal all of the secrets of a troubled past or hard times to a group of people he barely knew.

Ron nodded to the other pokemon as they inroduced themselves. He looked up at Zigzagoon. {Come on down from his ams, you know you don't want to be in them anyway,} he said to her, motioning for her to join them.

{Fine,} she said shortly climbing down slowly. Zachary let her, for her weight had been pulling on his arm strangely anyway. She sat next to Ron, but a small distance away.

Zachary nodded too at Maxie's words of apology and then looked around at the rest of them, "Yeah I agree with Rai, since there's a Ralts on the line here, and I've filled out my form too, maybe we should get going then?" A change of subject would probably be best, Zachary thought, that way this embarrassing talk and such can be done with.
 
"Oh....what are the forms for?" Maxie asked, as they handed them in. She was thankfull for the change of subject... Maxie lost her temper a lot, but normally with the people she worked with. These people were all perfectly nice strangers... but she had already practically bitten their heads off.
Now they were probably all speculating her past, but strangely enough, Maxie didn't care. If they found out too much, she could always kill them. It didn't matter how friendly, or generous that person was, Maxie could slit their throat without a second thought. It scared her, but was exhilerating too.

{ooc| Maxie's a scary li'l biatch.}
 
Zachary looked up, "They're sign-ups for the Showgan league." he replied, surprised that the girl didn't know this. Well, obviously she had had other things on her mind when they discussed it, what with having her Ralts abducted and all. "Did you want to make one too?" he asked, gesturing towards the pile of empty forms located nearby as he handed his form to the receptionist, a quiet and extremely bored looking woman in her late thirties with light brown hair, who had been leaning apathically to the counter for the whole time, apparently completely disinterested with the conversation, for examination.
