Dammit, I completely forgot to announce this here. Though considering I nearly forgot to tell my teachers, maybe it's not so surprising.
So, um, I'm in Spain. I'm flying home Saturday, at which point I will likely a) study for a physics test, b) unpack, c) do homework/catch up on the two days of school I missed, and d) sleep, like, all day.
Therefor, I won't be posting (probably) until Sunday, when I have to figure out how to sort this whole mess out...
Also, two questions!
1: Recap of Sinnoh so far?
2: Which of the Trio is at which lake? And can Biton&Co find a tear in/by Snowpoint if I can't find a way to integrate them in some other way? If they can't, it probably makes things simpler, but it's like 12:30 and my brain isn't working hard enough to come up with other options until tomorrow at the least.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!Sinnoh, and everything has a twilight haze to it.
Anyway:
Lake Verity: Mesprit
Lake Valor: Azelf
Lake Acuity: Uxie

Hugging a Vanillite will give you frostbite.OK, so a previous Discussion post
of mine and Axel's backstory megapost
established we have a Poke-Organization XIII lead by a Gengar who's a little too into the parallels. Now, I didn't just introduce them for lulz adding some flavor and depth to Axel; I was planning on an eventual encounter/miniboss battle with them, and this arc seemed like a good time to do it.
Now, there are three things I still need to work out:
1. The details: What is the Poke-org doing? Why would we fight them (aside from giving Axel some probably-deserved revenge)? I figured they found a Tear and thought it was part of Empire Souls' power or something, but any suggestions here would help.
2. The timing: When in the arc does this event take place?
3. If anyone else would like to participate: I don't want this to just be my subplot. Anyone that wants to help can help.
Any advice is appreciated, but I'm probably going to need the most help from Tagg and Rex, since they honestly know more about KH than I do. Also, I'm considering letting people RC particular members of their choice for the purpose of capturing them (as long as said members do not include Gengar!Xemnas, Lucario!Roxas, or Porygon-Z!Xion -they're too subplot-important and I've written too much for them already).
Contact Me!Couple of questions.
0.- Can't do much to help solving the "who are they" question (I only know KH as "Disney with FF characters") but I would suggest they are essentially exploring around, learning about the [Tears] and getting weird ideas from there. Heck perhaps they believe if they collect enough of them, a portal to their so desired world will open.
1.- So, if I'm getting this right, since they are chasing [Tears], it means they are confined to Sinnoh, right? Are they affected by the twilit to begin with?
2.- What type of confrontation will this lead into? With ⅩⅢ members around, it'd probably have to be split between three or four players, and require use of the Buddy System to not drag forever (since if we go with a B Oss Rush, that is essentially replaying a Tournament Arc where the focus is only on one branch). Will we see I Let You Win kind of battles, or perhaps not direct confrontations but such things as McGuffin exchanges? I assume they will also be in "bad" terms with the 'tombs.
4.- I guess the subplot-important ones could become The Unfought or something. It's not as hard to justify under the circumstances considering it is a big, twilit'd region.
Fanfic Recs orwellianretcon'd: cutlocked for committee or for Google?Are their fighting styles going to be based on their Re: COM or KHII: FM+ incarnations? Also, I think this should probably be something ongoing throughout the arc so that it doesn't drag on or detract from the main plot.

Hugging a Vanillite will give you frostbite.![]()
0. The idea that they are trying to GET to the world of Empire Souls through the "tears" is a fun one, and will likely be incorporated.
1. Not sure, but several are Dark or Ghost, and there may be a Soul among them.
2. The buddy system is probably a good idea here, and while it'll mostly be straight battles, some puzzles or I Let You Win situations may be possible with the more conniving members.
4. Two of the subplot important ones are actually allies. As for the one that isn't (Gengar!Xemnas), he's pretty much the leader, so I'll have Axel fight him himself.
Probably a mix, since some appear in one but not the other. Of course, with some we're going to have to adjust for their species. And having it be an ongoing subplot to prevent dragging/distracting from the main plot is probably a good idea, and we could use the order that Rex proposed in the chat:
Xemnas, Larxene, Vexen, Larxene, Lexaeus, Marluxia, Zexion, Saix, Demyx, Xaldin, Xigbar, Luxord, Saix, Xemnas
That's with consecutive battles, Axel, and Xion removed, by the way.

Contact Me!So as far as a wiki goes, the service mine was being hosted on is being shut down. I moved the (very little) content to a new one: http://sixthhokage1.wikinet.org/wiki/Main_Page
. If you want to use this as a Media Wiki sandbox, you can.
Question: Anyone object / approve / suggest on the splitting of the main characters at the Characters page? Wanted to do A-L, M-Z plus moving secondary player characters (eg.: the Morendos, the Another!characters) to another section.
Fanfic Recs orwellianretcon'd: cutlocked for committee or for Google?Double post because it is worthy: the split of the Characters page is already done.
There is still some information that has to be reorganized and moved to other places, such as the "AU-only characters" since with the various timelines and stuff that is no longer that unique, then there is also the matter of where to move RP!Crewe and to decide where will the Legendaries go.
Also, unfortunately we are no longer the heaviest page of the wiki... ›.‹
Fanfic Recs orwellianretcon'd: cutlocked for committee or for Google?OK, an arc proposal me Tracer and Silent have mulled for a bit:
Silent, Tracer, Tangent, and teams have turned evil! Are you a bad enough dude to foil their scheme? ...And have they actually remembered to come up with a scheme, or did they get sidetracked with designing boss battles, making genre references, and blowing the trope budget?
Will be a very dramatic arc, but dramatic in the Large Ham sense, not the angsty sense. Fourth Wall bending and Genre Saviness will be assets the heroes are encouraged to exploit, and Rule of Cool and Rule of Funny will prove super-effective in pretty much all encounters.

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Since I'm invited at aunt's tomorrow, I'm not sure about my availability, so here are some small pointers and stuff.
Rex: if you want to RC some Nidos for the purposes of training Pierce, it's pretty easy, the Owsla training regime is pretty much comprised of: run until it hurts, battle and practice [name of move], stalk Trainers without being seen, horn fencing, collecting frantic kits, rinse and repeat, etc.
Tracer: Sorry I couldn't help, but we could do Teala stuff tomorrow late or Sunday.
Sorry you two that I won't offer Maekrite for RC'ing but he's special :3.
Pika, Jeff, Wolf and Umbra: Feel free to go around Mt. Mortar or Mahogany or something, or spend some time at the Lake of Rage. The idea there was to explore the flooding mechanic of the lake, perhaps catch a longcarp or two, and perhaps meet one drowning tuber or two who would gladly accept uur help if we weren't the J-Team (Lazy Latios could escape this easily though).
I'll try to be online sometime after lunch with cousins, that is ~13 hrs from now, but I can't guarantee a thing.

Fanfic Recs orwellianretcon'd: cutlocked for committee or for Google?At Tangent
I think this would be better off as a subarc of something else, but other than that it sounds like fun!
At Silent
LL probably wouldn't care too much. :P
