Must.. Comment!

That picture ish so very prettyful, Yibber! ^o^

Okay, now I'll leave this thread alone. XD
 
OOC: *Ish burried under mountain of posts*

*Digs himself up with his trusty red herring*

Ah, I just love these mornings. XD Anyways, there's some quality poetry right there, good job Plushie, oh, and Shane too. ^^ Oh, and it's a feud between Yibber and Plushie! Who shall win? Place your bets now. Dang, I have this sudden urge to have an avatar with that phrase on (My very first one had). XD

And Yibber, I luuurve that picture you made of Amelia. ^^ Yeah, I could have done the describing better, but you actually managed to draw her exactly as I envisioned her. Now that's a talent that's freaky and cool at the same time. XD And Kuro looks so small and cute too...*Squeals* Your art pwns, Yibber! ^___^

IC:

Chupon and Kaika listened practically spellbound to Fishy's story, Chupon clapping his hands enthusiastically as the story drew to a close. The Treecko once again found himself amazed by the sheer amount of imagination that the little Mudkip possessed, a trait which Chupon had always wished for himself. But alas, being imaginative just didn't seem to be the little gecko's strong suit, so he contented himself with listening intently to Fishy and cheering enthusiastically at his stories instead.

{Kaika thinkings that bes the weirdest story him dids ever hear...} Kaika commented, {But it bes quite well told and funny Kaika thinkings.}

Ashura merely scoffed, but she couldn't really bring herself to say anything bad in response, and the tiniest flicker of a smile on her face betrayed her amusement, even though she did her best to hide it.

As an argument sprang up between Fishy and Razz, Ashura immediately backed out of it, listening intently but not bothering to interfere as it was really none of her affair. Kaika seemed to follow her example, adjusting his lying position in Rai's arms just a bit and following the conversation intently, his small ears perked up and his light brown eyes focusing on the two arguing. Chupon on the other hand followed the debate anxiously, shifting from foot to foot and fearing that his favourite storyteller might get hurt without him being able to do anything about it.

Rai merely nodded, still looking quite far from his usual self as he briefly followed the debate, soon realizing that he didn't really understand a word and probably wouldn't want to either and allowing his gaze to travel across the room without really focusing on anything as he waited for Amelia to return with their breakfast. Jena seemd to be thinking much along the same lines, considering how she was drumming her fingers against the table, but neither of them really wanted to stress out the poor trainee with something she couldn't do anything about.

Dude,its Feebas obvious who's going to win...*glances at evil Plushie*

BUT,I shall not say.And let it be a...surprise???^^;;;

Goshness,really?!About you en-vision whating Amelia.XD
I didn't know I had it in me,I was just flipping throught the manga,staring at Ruby and Sapphire(again).Before deciding to draw Amelia because I just felt like drawing her.
And,like does preparing food take that long?I'd have thought that Pokemon Centers have those ready-made food for their trainers.Them starving ish making Yibber hungry...-_-
*grabs blue cheese*

Ic-

{I'm terribly sorry,but I'd rather have eggs than leaves.}Ryne stated,apologising to the Wurmple as she herself got up to walk around the table.
{Don't worry about it.No need to fuss over anything.Still,leaves are good!}Orjen brushed it off,before rubbing his stomach.

{I need food!!}Cascade kipped impatiently,now that Fishy's story was over,the Mudkip began feeling hungry again.He started chewing on his own shoulder.

"Gah!!Cascade,stop eating yourself!!"Jena sweatdropped picking the Mudkip up from the table.

{Is Cascade tasty too?Should I try eating myself??}Orjen asked the Ralts beside him.
{I wouldn't encourage you to.}she shrugged before letting out a small giggle.
 
OOC:

*ahem* I wouldn't say that around the Bubu clones, Yibber. XD

Anyways, I guess it was just meant to be that Yibber pinpointed what Amelia was supposed to look like without a given description. o.O



IC:



{And so I conclude, you cannot see through fibs.} Fishy stated firmly.

Razz sighed once, dipping her head in pure frustration. {This conversation is officially dropped.} The Ponyta stated, now feeling somewhat relieved that she wouldn't have to talk back if she didn't feel like it.

{Hee hee! I win!} Fishy shouted, ignoring the fact that Cascade was beginning to eat himself and bouncing up and down enthusiastically.

Razz merely sighed, staring at something far off. She really could just squish the Mudkip into the brick floor.. Perhaps she'd be doing the world a favor..

Kayley sighed with relief herself. Whenever Fishy and Razz started to argue, there was always a chance that the two could actually start fighting.. But apparently they had kept calm this time. Now that she had nothing to really worry about, she merely sat there in silence, waiting with the others, although she didn't drum her fingers or anything like that that Jena had been doing.
 
{ooc| My guinea pig just died. She's pretty old (we're not sure how old exactly, she's from a rescue centre) but she's always been really healthy. My poor little Poe-Ghost. ;; *sniff*

Lovely pic, Yibber!}

Maxie sighed tiredly. Everyone seemed to be bickering today... first Fang and Ashura, now Razz and Fishy. At least her own pokemon had never argued with each other. Messy, Sephy and Fang had always got on quite well.
Another trainee nurse appeared, carrying plates of pancakes, beans, and god knows what else. "Who ordered what?" she asked, in a haggard voice.
"Beans are mine." Maxie said, as the plate of beans was placed in front of her. She stared at the others accusingly.
"Well? Who's are these?" she demanded. It had been a long shift and she really didn't want to dawdle.
 
OOC: *dies* Sorry guys, I had an English essay to write yesterday... ^-^; And I somehow managed to play three hours of Fire Emblem in the morning before the essay too... O.o Whatever the case, I'm back to RP. Expect fewer posts from me over the next couple days, I have the first half of my Japanese final to study for. +___+

Aw, Amelia and Kuro look great Yibber! That's kinda how I pictured her too. Funny. ^-^

Awesome poetry Plushie! Better than I can do. And I almost started laughing out loud when Charon put "Plushie" in her post! Too funny!

BTW, Flissie's gonna die when she tries to post again... o.o Where is she anyway?


Zachary
===============

After the display of Ashura's, Luka had mixed emotions going through her. She was careful and maybe a bit scared of that Scyther, but she also was angry that she was such a bully to that annoying bat pokemon. Granted, the little Zubat had gone a bit far, but Ashura's overreacting was far more overboard. Not to mention it made Luka feel better to think that Ashura was just a crazy mantis, and therefore the pokemon's attack on her was unfounded.

She didn't say anything though, she just sat there.

Zachary could tell she was nervous though, and so he carefully stroked her head, hoping it would calm her a bit. She didn't seem to share in this thought though and pulled away from him, grumbling to herself.

The breakfast was taking quite a while to get there, and Zachary decided to strike up a conversation again after Razz and Fishy seemed to end their argument.

"So... er, what about Sephy? I mean, if her absence is effecting poor Fang and Maxie so much, then shouldn't we try and find her or something?" he said, wondering why the subject hadn't really been spoken of that much for quite some time.

Ron looked up at Zachary, {How do we even know where to look though? We're not policemen or something.}

"I guess...," he responded. A moment of silence followed in which his stomach let out a low growl.

{Zack, your stomach's talking again,} Ron said with a smile.

Finally a trainee came with the food, and Zachary was happy to say brightly to her, "I've got pancakes! Though... not all of them of course."

{Your stomach sounds hungry enough to eat them though,} laughed Ron. His expression fell considerably though when he compared the look of Zachary's pancakes to his boring, brown pokemon food, {Yum... looks like dirt clumps.}


EDIT: Gah! Charon posted before me. Awww!!! Charon! I feel so bad for you! ;_; 'Da poor guinea pig. They're very cute animals. Was yours very friendly? I have had bad experiences with guinea pigs, though I'm sure yours was probably a sweet one. Maybe you should draw a picture of him? Like I did with Mac and Sticky. It'll make you remember them and, at least for me, it made me feel better.

Well... perhaps I should say...
Page 30! Whoo-hoo! And I hereby dedicate it to Charon's Guinea Pig, the little Poe-Ghost!

Yes Plushie,I know Plushie.XD

And yeah,Charon,sorry for Poe-Ghost.Yes,we shall dedicate this page to Poe-Ghost!^0^

Thank Charon for making the food arive too!^^

Ic-

"Oh,yes!Thankyou!I've ordered one egg,the pancakes and the cheese sandwich!"Jena could have leapt off her seat with joy at the moment ther Trainee Nurse came with the food.Cascade actually did.The Mudkip jumped inot the air,before running towards the pancakes which had been placed on the table.

{Hey!Orjen,these are for you too!}the Mudkip kipped,before stuffing his face with the food.The Wurmple slowly waddled over,using one tiny hand,he scooped up a bit of the pancakes,placing it into his mouth.

{Grand!!The eggs have arrived!!}Ryne smiled,taking a knife and fork and proceeding to cut the egg up to smaller bits so that she could eat it.

"Thank you!"Jena grinned at the trainee before grabbing one of the pancakes from her stack and placing it onto her own plate.
 
OOC:

Aw, I'm sorry Charon.. It must feel like how it felt when Bubu died.. ;.;

Great idea, Melissi! The page is now dedicated to Poe-Ghost! ^o^

And, I guess Titan was consumed by Fire Emblem.



IC:



Kayley spoke up right after the waitress had placed Jena's food in front of her.

"I ordered pancakes as well.. And three of the orders of Pokefood." She stated simply, watching with glee as the waitress merely grunted in reply and placed another plate of the pancakes in front of Kayley, as well as three of the plates of PokeFood.

This got Kayley thinking.. How could one person carry so much food?

She shrugged the thought off and placed one of the bowls of PokeFood on the ground for Razz.. Hazy and Fishy were more suited for eating when their bowls were on the table.

Fishy, unlike Cascade, didn't leap for joy, but seemed infinitely pleased that the food had arrived. He instantly bounded over to his bowl, then began to scarf the food down with gusto. Hazy merely floated down to the other bowl and began to eat slowly, no special movements or expressions taking place with the Ghastly.
 
After giving Kayley her food,the waitress proceeded to place the last order,a stack of pancakes and three dishes of pokefood infront of Rai.Letting out another low grunt before stalking off.
If Jena hadn't been eating her sandwich,she would've thought that the waitress acted rather weird.

{Wait,where're the smoothies?}Orjen looked up from the pancakes,though the Mudkip beside him continued gobbling.Amazing how both pokemon could fit so much into their tiny bodies.
 
Fishy abruptly paused in his scarfing when he heard Orjen comment on the lack of smoothies.

{Kay-Kay didn't order any smoothies.} He growled, shooting a look at Kayley before going back to his eating, almost as if he hadn't stopped in the first place.

Kayley rolled her eyes as she placed a napkin in her lap before finally starting to dig in, showing no expression as she plainly enjoyed her meal.

Hazy and Razz remained quiet, fully absorbed in their food.
 
OOC: Ehh...nope, I wasn't consumed by Fire Emblem this time. Just a whole lot of other stuff happening yesterday. I had to get my hair cut (It was staring to hang over my eyes), my family was eating out, and we went to watch the new Harry Potter movie. It was decent enough...if you don't mind that it completely butchered the creative work J.K.Rowling! <_< I swear, there were so many essential things left out, but instead they decided that they simply had to extend the whole dragon scene and add in one of those stupid, clich?d-to-death cliff-hanger moments to court the generic american audience...<_< Pfft, I dread to think of how mutilated the last part will be. Each one adds an additional burden of inconsistency that will have to be sorted out in the next part by adding even more inconsistency. It's a wicked circle...>.< I have the distinct feeling that I would have enjoyed it more if I hadn't read the book...

Oh, and then there was of course this humungous reply I wrote up to a PM, although the darnable 5000 character limit forced me to split it into two parts. Pfft...who put the bar that low anyway? I thought the usual limit was 15 000.

But moving on...sorry about your guinea pig, Charon. ;__; I concur, let this page be in honour of the poor, deceased Poe-Ghost.

IC:

"Thank you." Rai said to the waitress, although she had already stalked off before the boy had even finished his sentence. He shrugged, not paying to much attention to it as he divided out the bowls of pok?food to Ashura, Chupon, and Kaika respectively. Ashura immediately turning her attention to eating it, although doing so in a dignified manner, unlike Chupon who immediately leapt into the bowl and began chewing to his heart's content, causing Rai to roll his eyes, despite his best efforts he had never managed to train that habit out of the little gecko. Kaika simply looked at the food for a moment before slowly rising up from his spot in Rai's arms and walking over to the bowl, sniffing at its contents for a while before taking a thoughtfull bite, taking in the flavour. The Vulpix chewed for quite some time before taking another small bite and repeating the process, although it was marginally faster than before.

Rai began eating as well, although he proceeded only at the maximal pace that would still be considered socially acceptable, which, he noted, was a good bit slower than Jena's. But still, the boy couldn't help sticking to his old habits, taking one pancake at a time and carefully cutting it up into identical pieces before eating each one of them one at a time, savouring the flavour. It was pok?mon center food of course, and quite far from the standard that Rai was used to, but he was really too hungry to notice that and to him the pancakes tasted far better than anything he had ever had at home.

{No,no smoothies??}Orjen drooped his head for a moment or so,before continuing to eat,though,Cascade had finished most,leaving only a quarter of a pancake for the Wurmple.Which was more than enough.Orjen grabbed the piece with his hands and started chewing in a delightful manner.

{Okay,I'm full.}the Mudkip sighed contently,lieing on the table with one hand over his small stomach.

It seemed that Ryne had been the only pokemon to resort to the use of a fork and knife,shrugging it off,she had finally finished cutting it.

Jena held one hand out to the Ralts,who passed the girl her fork and knife.Ryne then proceeded with sitting down,crossing her legs and taking small bites out of each piece.

Wiping the last bits of sandwich from her face with a napkin which was already on the table,Jena started cutting up her one pancake.Though,not in the same manner as Rai maybe a tiny bit rougher was all.

Ooc-

I'm not even going to bother posting an IC.. Anything I write right now sounds boring.. XD
 
{ooc| OMG! I'm so happy! My shcool's doing a last minute trip to Germany at the weekend of my birthday to go to the Klogn (sp?) christmas market! So much to do...
Alter, I agree, the movie would have been good... but compared to JK's masterpiece it was totally shambolic.
Thanks for your thoughts on Poe. I feel better now, my friends have being comofrting me all through the day. We even skived off last lesson, grabbed a guitar, keyboard and a boombox, and locked ourselves in a spare classroom in an empty block. Ah, the music that we created warmed our hearts~!
Random Trivia; the name Poe Ghost is for two reasons. Firstly, Poes are a type of ghost from the legend of zelda games that hang aroud the ditches. We found Poe in a ditch, half-dead, with her mother and dead siblings. They were about three days old, and had died of the cold. She was also ghostly white, and when we found her we were sure she and her mother, who died a year and a half eariler, would pass away. She struggled through though, her and her Mum Humbug, so.... she was very special. *tear to her eye*
I'm not in the mood for an IC, too much to plan and pack for my trip!}
 
OOC: Oh poor Alter... I knew you'd feel the same way the rest of us did about the Harry Potter movie. XD Seriously, that dragon scene was WAY too overdone. When it broke off its chain I was like... WTF? Oh God... Harry Potter... Americanized!!! O_O Don't even get me started on the rumors that went on when they were trying to find a suitable director for the first movie about how Steven Spielberg wanted to do it and wanted to make Harry a popular boy with a cheerleader girlfriend. *shudders* Well anyway, I for one am an American, and I for one, dislike those stupid cliche cliff-hangers. Why would the dragon have chased him that far anyway?? She was supposed to want to protect her egg....

Oh and I'm glad things are looking up for you Charon! And that story about Poe-Ghost and Humbug is truly amazing. Isn't it surprising what animals can go through and still come out alright? Oh, and have fun on your trip! It sounds like great fun!

BTW, I cut my food like Rai does. XD

Oh! And I just downloaded... I mean bought!!... the 8th pokemon movie's soundtrack! It's awesome!!


Zachary
===========

"So... what are we doing after breakfast anyway?" Zachary asked, stuffing pancake into his mouth. He was never very good at table manners, and when he noticed Rai cutting his pancake so expertly, he frowned.

Was that the right way? Rai was much more high-culture than he was. Zachary looked at his other pancake and began to imitate the fine cutting that Rai had been doing, being as careful as possible.

Ron raised an eyebrow, {What the? What're you doing...?}

Zachary shrugged, "Cutting my pancake."

{But... why so strangely? It looks funny,} Ron said back, chewing on a piece of food.

"Shhh! You'll make me lose my concentration!" Zachary hissed, staring hard at his pancake.
 
OOc-
That was a great story bou' Poe-ghost and Humbug,Charon!
Bah,lucky you,go to Germany,I'll just stay in my nice warm country.-_-

Okay,the 8th Movie was,Mew and the Wave-guiding Hero or something,I never really got around to buying the movies to watch,too lazy.XD

Ic-

"I thought we'd discuss it a few minutes back,um,some of you'd go and challenge Azure Town's nasty gym leader?"Jena looked up from her half-eaten pancake when Zach asked his question.

Wondering how he managed to stuff so much of the pancake into his mouth.


The boy then took a look at how Rai cut his on pancake and decided to try it out himself,receiving a confused look from the Aron beside him.The girl also noticed how roughly she was cutting hers,compared to the boy.Bah,she was never the best at table manners to begin with.
 
OOC:

Phwee, I remember Poes from Zelda.. They're my favorite Ghost video game chars aside from Boo. XD

Her story reminds me of a story I heard on the radio today.. Some four-year-old from a farm decided to lock his ten-pound cat in the fridge to protect him from coyotes or something, and then forgot about it.. The family thought that cat was missing for four weeks.. And then they discovered it in the barn's fridge.. XD

And somehow it survived.. XD

Anyways, just like Yibber, I'll be happy to stay where it's nice and warm, although I hope your trip goes well! ^^



IC:



Kayley watched with some interest as Zach attempted to cut his pancakes like Rai after he had stuffed a whole lot of the breakfast food in his mouth, earning confusion from Ron, and earning a bit more spectators while doing so.. Namely Jena and herself.

Kayley sighed and went back to her own pancakes, not really caring about how neatly she cut her food, although she was still a part of the conversation.

"I really should practice a bit with Hazy before my challenge.." She commented after Jena's statement, as well as after a few bites of pancake. "As advised by.. Amelia." She said, pausing to remember the Trainee's name.

Fishy was the first of Kayley's Pokemon to finish their food, lifting his head up from the bowl to reveal that it was totally empty, even of crumbs. He didn't burp or anything, though, flicking his eyes around the other bowls of PokeFood.

{If anyone doesn't finish, I want the rest!} Fishy declared loudly, wagging his tail as he did so.

{Pay no heed, everyone, the Mud Fish has always been a pig.} Razz exclaimed just as loudly before going back to her meal, although if it had affected Fishy in any way, no one would ever know because his expression remained blissful.
 
OOc-
Always catch a cold.>_<
And don't get me started on the evil airplane food.X_X

Ic-

{Pig.}Cascade repeated just because he felt like it,there was nothing else to do anyway.The Wurmple who had finished his small piece of pancake decided to lick his first pair of hands,wanting to taste the other four,but they were far too short to eaach his mouth.Frowning slightly,he turned as Fishy stated he'd eat the pokefood of those who didn't want theirs.

{And,if there's any remainder,I shall eat it!}the Wurmple exclaimed, happily.These,pancakes were such a different taste from his usual green leaves,he liked them,but nothing could ever replace the nice taste dry leaves gave him.

"Right,well,I'm done."Jena nodded as Kayley said she'd train Hazy after breakfast,the girl used the same napkin to wipe her mouth and hands,before sitting back and taking a glance out of the window.

Wait,was that?Three Tailow in the tree?
 
Maxie dropped her knife and fork with a clatter. In less than a minute, her baked beans had vanished, and it's place was a licked-clean piece of crockery.
"That was tasty!" she exclaimed.
{I love beans!} Fang replied, for he had been eating some of Maxie's. The girl had hardly stopped to breath, before drinking her complimentary glass of orange juice that the assisstent nurse had left on the table. A second later, that too had been drained, and she slammed that down on the table triumphantly.
"I'm done." she told everyone cheerfully, as they werel fumbling with their knives and forks. Fools! The only way to enjoy food is to eat it, not poke it was a metal thing! Maxie's stragtegy for eating was get it on and off her fork as soon as possible.
Funnily enough, she seemed happier after that plate of beans than she had been all day. "Now what's happening? I think we should explore the town!"

{ooc| Pete doesn't seem to want me posting in Barrel City any more, sooo.... *twiddles thumbs*}
 
OOC: Huh? He doesn't? o_O Did he say that straight out or what? He did make that one comment about your IC not being in any way related to the events going on...which, I'm sad to say, it wasn't. But I don't recall him ever telling you to just piss off or anything.
