Oh, wow. With Serebii's announcement of the updated Global Link features and this talk about Pokemon Black and White 2, I sure hope I can convince my mother to go back to our house (since I don't have Wi-Fi for my Nintendo DS games here at the apartment) before November 1. (because they're going to be building another apartment building near ours, and we don't want to listen to construction noise and stuff, so we were going to head back to our house for a while then)
In other news, I'm considering not coming into the chats anymore. It's a bit of a shame since part of my social life is in there, and I was really looking forward to gushing about Pokemon Black and White 2 and stuff when it came out, but I suppose that's the prize I must pay. There are other ways of getting to do that anyways, I suppose.
I keep getting into trouble for staying up longer at night than I told my mother I would, mostly due to getting involved in conversations in the chats late at night. And I have said I wanted to get a normal sleep schedule once again, but I still haven't been able to really get started on that. So, it might be better for both me and my mother's sleep schedules, as well as my mental health for me to not use the chats.
Besides, there's hardly anyone in there during the day and with everyone busy with RL stuff such as school, I wouldn't really have anyone to really talk to most of the day, it seems. Not to mention that I have been feeling kind of uncomfortable in there lately.
Of course, to avoid the same problem elsewhere, I'd have to set up some rules for contacting me outside of the chats, such as no TV Tropes PMs after 11:30 PM (in my timezone). So, I'm not exactly sure if leaving the chats will solve the problems.
I'm also still considering quitting the RP, but since the oppurtunities I'm waiting for are slowly approaching, you don't have to worry about me leaving just yet.
Thanks for your support, guys. I guess another issue that might arise from not using the chats might be that it'll be difficult to run ideas relating to my fanfic by you guys. I can't really do it in here, since this isn't the place for that. And I was already starting to feel uncomfortable doing it in creative, seeing as it probably distracts from RP discussions, even when there aren't any RP discussions going on at the time.
-Hugs DS- If you need to stop coming in because of your mom, your health, your mom's health, etc., that's fine, but we'd really like if you were able to socialize with us better. And if you don't I'll gladly gush about B2/W2 with you over TVT P Ms.
Speaking of B2/W2 I still need 3-4 more egg offers. (It's not a solid number because Crow is unsure of his.)
EDIT: Eskay has offered one, so it's 2-3 more now. Though would appreciate more as backup.

Contact Me!Armbands
I can part with Skye's armband. Diane's... not so simple. Considering the person mon who gave it to her literally waited 600 years just to do it, it's not something she'll reasonably "give away". Yes, she'll loan it to other people occasionally. No, she won't give it to someone else. I hope this is clear enough.
DS
I honestly hope you choose not to leave the chats. I don't really know what else to say beyond that... -hug-
BW 2
Wow, I actually managed to go the entire time without spoilers. -mental over-the-top celebration-
DS: I would normally want them by Sunday, but I can wait if you need me to. White 2 is my priority anyways.

Contact Me!Wolf: Copypasta'd from the original post:
- I would vastly prefer Pokemon either NOT in the New Unova Dex or those that only show up late in the game. Like, only after the 7th or 8th gym or postgame late.
- Please, no junk Pokemon. That includes Com Mons , Magikarp, male Combee, gimmick mons, sufficiently weak stuff like that. If you even THINK about giving me such a mon I will just box it - or worse- and ask someone else.
- Good egg moves/inherited TM moves and good Dream World abilities are not required (especially the latter), but are GREATLY appreciated.
- Preferably, not a mon one of my characters own in-RP, but considering the sheer number I have this is the rule that can be hewn to the least.
Other than that, suprise me.
Contact Me!Straw, Wolf: Thanks! :3
Hmm... We've got Tagg, Tropeless, Eskay, Wolf, Straw, possibly Crow, and possibly DS... I just need one more non-"possibly" offer and I'll be set. Of course, I'd always appreciate more as backup.
Also, you guys should probably PM each other to avoid overlap.
Contact Me!That's fine, I can wait a bit to start the Black 2 run.
Still need one more non-"possibly" offer, by the way.
Contact Me!Once I get the games (or before, even) I just need to have your Black 1 and White 1 Friend Codes so I can trade for them. (yes, you can trade eggs.) If you want better than early-game mons in return, you'll have to do it indirectly through my White file.
So GIT BREEDIN'
Contact Me!Crewe: It doesn't have to be a backup- I needed one more not-"possibly" offer. So you're currently the sixth slot with Crow and DS - the "possibly"s - as backups. :3
Contact Me!I'll probably wait until the game comes out on Sunday. Unless you want a Mon that isn't crappy in return.
Contact Me!

You can count Susan among the mons that have an armband in use pretty much constantly. Also not sure how the rescinding of ownership will effect unique objects like the borked armband and similar artifacts.
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.
