Hearthome, Airspace
Sergey and Mistral were flying serenly over the city, headed westwards towards Mt. Coronet and Eterna City
Sergey: "This is better than the underground route, that's for sure. And the weather is also nice."
But that assertion shouldn't hold true for long, as they neared Mt. Coronet it became stormier and stormier by the minute, on the ground this whole thing probably wasn't seen as more than some dark clouds, but up here the picture was something else entirely. The winds blew with full force eastwars, directly against them.
Mistral desperatly tried to fight the wind and indeed managed to slowly gain ground, but much slower than normally, as they got over Mt. Coronet the winds began shaking them around, Sergey hold onto the package on his back with all the might of one arm, the other desperatly holding onto Mistral to not get thrown from her.

EJ takes off like a shot, trying to tackle the two, but between his poor form and the discomfort of running in shoes without socks, he won't be able to keep up the pace for long. His long arms stretch out to grab at either the Lucario or the woman before he has to stop.

Random Dockworker: -Looking at towards the sea- Hmm, the Wingull sure are flocking a lo-What the hell is that?
"That": -Is what appears to be a giant mass of seaweed fused together into a humanoid shape by Glitchiness slowly approaching Veilstone-
Artemia: -Seeing the same thing- <Holy!>
Pica: <And how are we going to defeat that Glitch titan when we're both landbound and the others are busy elsewhere?>
Ana: -Coming from behind with Bohr- <We can help with that.>
Artemia: -Getting off Pica's back- <Eh, how?>
Bohr: <We've been searching for a way to test a new invention of ours.>
Ana: -Smiles- <And this'll be the perfect test!>
Artemia & Pica: -Look at each other uneasily-
Artemia: <Not sure if I like the sound of this... but do we have any choice?>
-Speaks up-
<Okay, show us what you've got.>
[Soya Strait], 20 minutes later
Seaweed Titan: -Is walking ever closer-
-Only to be greeted by what appears to be a giant mecha around its size approaching it-
Inside the Mecha
Pica: -Is wearing some sort of skintight suit- <So this is supposed to make it respond to our every movement, but only if we're in total mental sync?>
Artemia: -Wearing the same suit- <I'm starting to regret this already, how they even find the materials to create this thing?>
-Beat-
<You know what, better if we don't know.>
Ana: -Over the intercom- <Remember, if that thing reaches Veilstone, it'll be bad, so you guys had better stop it. Good luck, and don't die!>
Pica: -Under her breath <How... inspiring, mom.>
Artemia: -Baring her teeth as the mech goes into attack position- <Okay you oversized piece of algae, let's do this!>
-The mech then speeds up to grapple with the Seaweed Titan-

Tori: "Of course I'm right, just think of all the stuff you'd have missed out on if you'd stayed cooped up at your old home?"
-She gives an overly confident smirk to try and keep Maria from feeling too guilty-
Mondo: <Yeah... But where to now?>
-He looks around for a path to continue, and in the process spots the pressure plate. Mondo then looks to Lisa, shrugs, and steps on it-

Daydre notices the pressure plate.
".. I wonder what that does."
She avoids pressing it for now, in case it does something bad.

Zachary: "Whoa! That was fast! Did he get her!?"
Zachary looks and manages to see EJ grabbing the Lucario's arm before braking, causing the two to stop and the Lucario to fall over
Zachary: "He did!"
Zachary runs over to EJ and Not Marlin, who is dizzy because of the sudden stop
Zachary: "Good job, EJ! Now let's see if she still has that parcel I need to retrieve!"
Zachary tries to search but Not Marlin reveals that the dizziness was a trick and sweep kicks Zachary off the ground
Not Marlin: "How about no? Lucario, Bone Rush!"
The Lucario generates a bone out of pure energy and tries to smack Zachary with it but Bunby rushes in and gets in the way, taking the hit instead
Zachary: "Oh my goodness, Bunby!"
Bunby: <Heh....You really think that's gonna be enough to get me out of the game!?>
Bunby dashes towards the Lucario but he dodges out of the way as Not Marlin calls out a Honchkrow and mounts it along with the Lucario
Bunby: <Grrrr....You.....WE'RE SETTLING THIS LIKE TRUE WARRIORS RIGHT NOW, YA HEAR ME GOOD-FOR-NOTHIN' HONCHKROW!?>
Not Marlin: "And once again i'll just make my get-away! Every time we meet it's always the same, oh well..."
Not Marlin takes off in her Honchkrow as Zachary mounts Bunby gives chase
Zachary: "W-Wait! Bunby, what about us!? You can't just leave us on the ground!"
Aurum: ~She's not listening to you~
Zachary: "Aw man, she just flew away!"
Aurum: ~I'm calling it: that bird's pride is gonna be her doom, guess we're gonna have to follow her~

Jacob: "Well sometimes I need some expert advice, sir snark-a-lots."

Subject: The Midnight Feature Urban Legend!
In previous emails I've told you of other urban legends of the stage, screen and smaller screen and this time I'm bringing you a blast from the past with the Midnight Feature. Read on and be intriqued.
Rumor had it, back in the day when people drove convertibles to go to their milk bars and ice-cream socials, that there was a secret reason why drive-in cinemas didn't put showings on during stormy days: That films shown during that time could see the future.
To specify, the films wouldn't show major stuff like world events or who you'd end up dating in six months, they'd show how a random person watching would die. For this reason (and not for any practical ones), drive-in cinemas would shut their doors on rainy days to avoid people finding out about the magic in the film.
Of course, drive-ins swiftly became a relic long before the internet got big enough for people to be bothered testing out these old legends so who knows, maybe they were telling the truth when noone serious would listen? And that, dear readers, is some cool AF lore for this week.

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.Tori: "I dunno, hadn't really though much beyond 'finally get my own room again'. Maybe see about purging some old clothes..."
Tori: "Don't be. That was probably the best thing you could have done with the way she's trying to run your life. That's totally crossing the line between parental responsibility and tyranny"
-She pats Ignia gently-
"If anything, it's my fault for not punching that guy as soon as I saw that emblem"
-Blitz looked around as the room began to shake-
Blitz: "Right! Uh, thank you for your help!"
-He quickly exits to the hallway with the others, turning to look back to make sure nobody had been left behind as the glitch consumed the butler-
"Geeze..."
-He pauses, then turns to Reset-
"...I think he knew what he was doing... But, maybe we can get him back if we hurry and stop this thing?"
Apologies for spacing on this, still figuring out how to RP around new work schedule
