All of this is really too bad. I agree that Umbra should definitely seek help.
Right, well, first off. My last post was during the end of lunchbreak and I didn't really have much time to figure out context or compose thoughts when I last posted. So hopefully that didn't make anything worse...
Secondly I don't think the current line of conversation is going to lead anywhere helpful so... I just got to level 5 with Pokemon Go! Which apparently means I get to pick between teams Instinct, Mystic, and Valor. Unfortunately, I'm terrible at picking sides! Anyone know if it's possible to change teams later?

Not yet. I ended up just joining what my friends joined (because then we can cooperate), but I'm not sure you can do that. Or whether that would be a good idea, even.
Lol, I'm literally the only person besides my little brother that I know in this town that plays pokemon (which says more about my social life than the number of pokemon fans, probably). So not a lot of good that plan does me

Team Valor because I'm a lonely girl living in a lonely world. :P

I went with Mystic. I don't think you can change teams later, though.

Yeah, not surprised. But "permanent" dicisions like that make me freeze up sometimes, especially if I can't make a copy of my save. I'm weird like that, lol.
Leaning team Instinct at the moment, I think Mystic is a little too high-brow or something for me...

So I'm finally going to return, or at least end my "official" break regardless of whether my activity in the RP proper actually picks back up, buuuuut yeah. I have no idea how much it's gonna stick though.

I'm Team Mystic. Just hit level 12 today and unlocked Great Balls.
You actually can change teams by submitting a form on Niantic's site, but I wouldn't expect it to process very quickly.

@Uil, GM: That wouldn't really help Umbra that much at all.
Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.
Straw: Good to know, though I wasn't really planning on team hopping much unless I find out one ends up with a REALLY terrible media representation or something
Bitters: Heya, welcome back! At least sort of.

Blits: You're probably safe with Team Instinct, then. :P It's the least likely to start an actual gang war at this point, at least. :P

I went Team Mystic. Welcome back, Bitter!

On a side note, we've officially moved by now. Sadly, still no internets until Tuesday, but hey, no more lifting heavy objects into a massive truck, eh?

@Tagg OK. Let's just move on from this subject.

Since I hate it when the community has a collective cloud over their heads, how about we remind ourselves of the good things Umbra's done? For instance, his generosity got me...
-drumroll-
This picture of Future!Snowy, by the wonderful autobottesla!
Big ups to Umbra for getting this commissioned for me, because I'm skint and it's so goddamn perfect
Bona-Fide Mastah
Eeeeeeeeeeee~. How cute and badass! I wanna huggle the Snowy!
High Priestess of Fabulous
Eeeeee~ :3

Cute~
Speaking of commissions, just before I returned I got this from zu-art because I love her art style and finally have enough money to not be at risk.
Re:Pokemon Go! Teams: I have three characters so I'm good.
- Pokemon Trainer Club account (Keys2tkingdom): Team Mystic
- Primary Gmail account (Reynaert) - Team Instinct
- Phone's Gmail account (RenardClavis) - Team Valor
Re: Commission Hell:
Bitter: Is that Sarah, or is it someone else? Either way, it looks lovely. Particularly liking the pose.
Uil: Neat.

It is indeed Sarah, with longer and fluffier hair since it's been a while since the last commission of her.

Sarah is so cute~ ^_^

Agreed

At this point, I'm going to have to advise Umbra to leave the Internet alone for a while and seek professional help. He's clearly stressed and desperately unhappy, and it's getting worse every time he melts down.
Tastes better on the way back down.
