ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Hearthome City

-Kieran is in his room, reading a book. Sarah is sleeping neaby, with her bad arm and leg both propped up, and her crutch at her side.-

???: <OPEN UP!>

-Kieran glances toward the door, sighing-

Kieran: I know that voice, and no.

???: <TOO LATE!>

-The doorknob catches fire, and the door is broken open. Sarah blinks awake at the sound.-

Sarah: Hmmwha...? What's going on?

-She rubs her eyes and looks at their intruder, which — surprise, surprise — is a red Larvitar.-

Igneous: <Heeeeeeeeere's Iggy!>

-The twins sigh. Kieran flips a page in his book, while Sarah pulls a hat over her head and covers her face.-

Sarah: -muffled- Of course I wake up to this...

Kieran: Can you bug us some other time? We're really not in the mood for you.

Igneous: <But I'm in the mood for you! In the mood for...>

-He makes a triumphant pose.-

Sarah: I swear, if you say "revenge"...

Igneous: <REVEEEEEEEEEEENGE!>

-Sarah groans. Kieran puts his book down-

Kieran: Look, we—

-Kieran is promptly interrupted by the sound of the window breaking, accompanied by the sight of a platinum-blonde figure tumbling through and tackling Sarah off the bed.-

Sarah: Ow! Fuck! What the hell—

Celia: Got you~! <3

Sarah: ...Oh for the love of...

Hearthome Center

-Jacob sits up, mummified in blankets at a lot of sounds-

"..."

-He decides, perhaps wisely, that going back to sleep is the best decision he could make right now, and lays back down-

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Hearthome Center

-Sarah kicks Celia off of herself, but not until she gets several lipstick marks on the corners of her mouth and on her cheeks. She pulls herself upright.-

Sarah: For fuck's sake, haven't you ever heard of personal space?

-Celia jumps up to her feet, beaming-

Celia: But there's no other way I...

-She blinks, and just now registers the fact that Kieran exists. She rapidly looks between him and Sarah. The thought that runs through her mind is very, very easy to guess.-

Celia: ...Ohhhhh my gosh...

Kieran: ...No. Get that disgusting thought out of your head.

Celia: But wouldn't it be—

Twins: NO.

-A boy storms in.-

Roy: Hey, mind keeping it down? Some people are trying to sleep...

-He blinks, then scowls-

Roy: ...You.

Sarah: ...Of course. Would anyone else like to barge into our room uninvited? Anyone at all?

-Igneous stomps his feet in frustration, leaving scorch marks on the floor-

Igneous: <Dammit, I was here first! The position of "daily nuisance" has already been taken!>

Kieran: Thank you, Igneous. Everyone else, can you please leave?

Roy: Not until we finish what we started!

Celia: Yeah, I only just got started with you two~ <3

Kieran: Ugh...

Hearthom Center

-Jacob stumbles into the Armarin's room wearing a bedsheet toga, and somehow the entire mattress got wrapped on his back- "I require nine hours of sleep and whatever is going on here better be a good reason for not getting it."

-He blinks a few times as his vision clarifies and he sees everyone in here- "... Okay what the hell?"

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Hearthome Center

Sarah: And so one more heedeth the call and thus appeareth before us. At least you're a friendly face for once.

Kieran: Honestly, there really isn't a good reason for any of this.

Celia: Go back to bed, I was just about to get comfortable with them~ <3

-She wraps her arms around Sarah's waist, but is promptly smacked away by Sarah wielding her crutch.-

Sarah: Go awaaaaaaay. I'm not interested in you. Any of you.

Roy: Well, too bad, we're here until we get what we want! And I want revenge!

Igneous: <Oh, come on! I was here for revenge first! Wait your turn!>

-Roy doesn't seem to understand Igneous, and pretty much just kicks the very shouty Delta Larvitar aside.-

Igneous: <ACK! Okay, that's it!>

-He uses Ember on Roy's pants.-

Roy: Aah! Stop that!

-He frantically tries to put his now burning pants out.-

-Kieran and Sarah shoot a look at Jacob-

Hearthome Center

Jacob: -Beat-

"..."

"... You're the Larvitar that showed up in my house last year."

-A Tyranitar suddenly falls through the ceiling-

Discord: <IGNEOUS??>

Jacob: "..."

"... Do I have permission to use gratuitous force to evict these people?"

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Hearthome Center

Roy: No!

Celia: Nooooooooo

Igneous: <Yep!>

-Beat-

Igneous: <WAIT NO.>

Twins: The more gratuitous, the better.

Old Chateau- 37 minutes until Sunset-

-Huet seemed pleased at him getting the definition right. He writes down the title and seems to be relieved.-

Huet: Okay... the next one is... "A young orphan boy is saved from poverty by a mysterious benefactor, and then tries to win the love of the cold girl he played with as a boy." Uh... Imamu uses way too many big words...

Hearthome Center

Jacob: "...."

-He smiles-

"EXCELLENT!"

-He hurls off the bedsheets and mattress to reveal he is fully dressed-

-He presses the sapphire orb on his shoulder pauldron thing and is enveloped by a cloud of bubbles that clears to reveal him in a suit of blue-red knight armor-

"Discord, handle Igneous."

-Roy is then hauled over Jacob's head and hurled out the front door-

"And tonight is one of the nights where I'm glad I have no qualms about potentially harming women!"

-And Celia is picked up and javelin-tossed out the window she broke through-

Discord: -Picks up Igneous by his head-horn- <D'awwww you're so smol now!>

-Beat-

<WE CAN CATCH UP LATER!!> -And he throws the little ball of rage and indignation through the hole in the ceiling he fell through-

Jacob: -He claps his hands together, brushing dust off them as the armor glows and fades away- "Well that was the most fun I had all day. Did you know Amity Park doesn't consider Phione cute enough to permit entry? Pissed me ooooofff..."

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Hearthome Center

-Everyone goes flailing as they're launched out of the room.-

Kieran: Wow, really? Geez, that's even worse than I remember.

-Sarah does her best to wipe Celia's lipstick stains off her face, then grabs her crutch again-

Sarah: Thanks for the help, Jake. I'm gonna go snuggle with Alyssa or Diane or someone, try and forget about everything that just happened.

-She hobbles toward the door-

Hearthome Center

Jacob: -He nods- "Yeah complete bullshit. Pardon my language but seriously Tagg wasn't kidding."

-He sighs and waves goodnight to Sarah- "If you ever need help getting around just ask! I can carry your stuff. Also baby wipes or makeup remover helps with the lipstick!!"

-He looks back at Kieran-

-He then flops backwards on to his sheets and mattress on the floor, curls up, and falls asleep-

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Hearthome Center

-Sarah turns around to respond to Jacob.-

-She's too slow.-

Sarah: ...That was fast. Good night, I guess.

-She turns back around and hobbles away. Kieran sweatdrops and relocates Jacob to a more reasonable resting spot.-

Jubilife City

-Dunyazade, Marjanah, Balthazar, Scheherezade, and that Pyroar from the Abandoned warehouse are walking.-

Scheherezade: "Remind me again why you're following me?"

Pyroar: <Uh, why not?>

Scheherezade: "Oh, I don't know, the Gardevoir who your trainer kidnapped?"

Pyroar: <I didn't do anything. I slept through most of that fight!>

Scheherezade: -sigh "I give up. You appear to be following me no matter what."

Pyroar: <Yep.>

Phaz: -thinking- (I don't even know half the name of theses books... What am i, an illiterate ? Next time i'll go in a library, i'll buy some books. Seriously dude, you have a problem.)

What's the use of money if you ain't gonna break the mold? Even at the center of fire, there is cold All that glitters ain't gold

CU, ??

Daydre follows along.

Well, that's a handy feature... Scenery's nice too, but no doubt something's going to try killing us soon...

off the shits

CU-Crystal Caves

-Mendel stands next to the hole and has Pythagoras do another round of echolocation.-

Mendel: I can't believe I'm saying this, but we'll have to jump. The only way forward is down this pit and there seems to be a huge mound of a loosely packed substance that could theoretically break our fall.

Ren: Ummmm... Lisa? You want to go first?

Lisa: <...Fine. If you're so certain.>

-She flies into the hole cautiously-

Tastes better on the way back down.

To describe yesterday as "unexpectedly busy" doesn't do it justice.

Jubilife City

-Phosphora is out and about - from her growling stomach, it would be natural to guess that she's going to breakfast.-

The Warrens, 1F

Yay, posting on my breaks!

-As Lisa decends, there is indeed a pile of snow at the bottom. The crystals groan, as though speaking-

Why. Why. -they seem to say-

The passage ahead is long and winding, but otherwise, it looks safe-

=Eterna Pokemon Center=

Aurum enters the Pokemon Center lobby while carrying Zachary and, after walking up to the counter, drops him on the floor

Aurum: ~Injured leg, sprained ankle, Coronet is the worst~

Aurum passes out from exhaustion right after saying the above words and falls to the ground

Zachary: "Um....yeah, what he said...Also I think he might need some help too..."

Aurum and Zachary are placed on beds and taken to a hospital room and Zachary gives her Pokemon to a nurse

Zachary: "Could you heal them? Two of them in particular received quite a beating back then"

The nurse takes the Pokeballs to a healing machine while Zachary lays back on the bed and Aurum starts waking up

Zachary: "....We are never going back to Coronet ever again"

-Lisa notes these things and flies back up to the top-

Lisa: <No worries, there's something at the bottom to help cushion the fall or something. Nothing else I noticed other than some whiny crystals.>

"life is just a series of increasingly canon-eluding ao3 tags" ~ everydunsparce "Keep your hellfruit away from me, tempter" ~ also Every

Ren: "Whiny crystals"? I can't wait to see what that's about...

-Ren jumps off the ledge, with Mendel right behind him.-

-Joseph hops off the ledge, too, with a happy little whoop-

Hearthome

-Etran is walking to the contest hall, planning to watch a contest-
