Why don't you just reveal it at the Gold Conference? They'd call out your name when you come out to fight.

I did not remember that. Scratch Rowan off the list, then.

Speaking of names, Jane, where did Belen come from?

Yeah, I guess I could also reveal it at the Gold Conference.

I'll probably also include a small note in spoiler texts on how to pronounce it correctly when it is revealed.

For the record, my first name isn't hard to pronounce, but since it is only really a common name in Norway, and maybe a couple of other places, I should probably include a note on how to pronounce it.

I'm looking forward to it.

I'm probably not going to reveal Wolf's real name anytime soon, since I haven't decided whether Wolf is his first or last name yet.

[up] Gotcha. I figured it was something like that, although my guess would've been mother's maiden name.

At one point, I was thinking of at some point revealing that Mesprit at some point had secretly placed a small fragment of her soul inside DS to better be able to keep an eye on her... But, I've dropped that idea.

However, I do have another idea, basically, it would be revealed that DS first met Mesprit at an earlier point in her life than she remembers.

Yeah, that is why I dropped the first idea.

The soul thing might've, but meeting Mesprit earlier wouldn't. She does live only a few steps (and a lake) away from Mesprit's cave.

No, I mean, both of those ideas would make DS a Mary Sue. Befriending Mesprit for absolutely no reason and that more or less accomplishes nothing when you were a baby is more than a little sue-ish.

Well, the idea basically involved a brief encounter by Mesprit having saved DS from drowning after she somehow fell into Lake Verity when she was around two years old.

On top of meeting Mesprit when you were a kid, somehow befriending her during the Distortion World incident, using her for help several times during the PMD Arc, developing a psychic connection with her...

It just feels like it's going a bit overboard for me.

#1489: May 31st 2011 at 10:37:45 AM

Well, I didn't say I was necessarily going to use the idea.

I don't think DS actually interacted much with Mesprit during the PMD arc, and I never stated DS and Mesprit have a psychic connection. (although Mesprit has been able to contact DS via telepathy a few times)

As for the Distortion world incident, well, DS is the protagonist from Pokémon Platinum in this continuity, so... Yeah.

It kind of would be sort of Sueish, just saying.

Okay, okay. I did think it might've be a bad idea anyways. Which is why I brought it up.

Your character just seems to have a lot to do with Mesprit for some reason that isn't really explained very well. Sorry if I'm being too harsh.

I don't see it. Maybe if it was Arceus, I could see what you mean, but it's Mesprit. It's not exactly a Game-Breaker to be allied with it, DS lives nearby, and as a physical embodiment of emotion, I don't think it would be able to let someone drown if they fell in the Lake. Especially if that person is a child.

Just my opinion.

[up][up] Well, the player character of the D/P/P games having a connection with Mesprit does sort of seem to be canon so... Yeah.

Of course I'm Mr. "I have the most legendary items out of the whole group and played Groudon in Yu Gi Oh", so I may not be the best arbiter of this sort of thing.

Well, anyways, let's talk about something else.

Apart from the AU arc, should we involve time travel in a story arc at some point?

Part of me has been thinking of a mini-arc where we explore the Embedded Tower as it was in the past due to Celebi transporting us there.

Time travel is a fickle thing to write, since there's so many ways it could go wrong.

I'd vote no, but I don't want to exclude the possibility of doing it later.

Writing a story that involves Time Travel can get... confusing, to say the least. I'm not sure if I'd be able to handle it properly.
