RNG: AS YOU HUMANS SAY: U MAD?

I also never noticed Ligray had a tail nor that you could find wild Oobemu.

Oh what the [EXPLETIVE DELETED]!? Using a Co[EXPLETIVE DELETED]rigous like that was just plain hax!

EDIT: Oh come on! The filter affects s[EXPLETIVE DELETED]horpe problem too?

RNG: YOU FLATTER ME.

RNG X Mario = OTP? :o

Oh yeah, I just remembered. I caught a Shiny Audino earlier!

Since the RNG seems to hate Marioguy and Marioguy seems to hate it back, that'd have to be pretty... interesting.

Foe Yay?

I remember when the RNG used to love Marioguy. What happened between you guys?

It's a Tsundere.

Also, can I write the actual story once we get around to it?

I was thinking of splitting up the work between us, so first we have to find key points that will not change between versions.

Oh.

That will be difficult, especially since we'll probably have varying styles.

Yay, splitting it up. :D

Also, funny movie.

It seems my current obsession with Paddling Ghost has come to its peak, since every time I see a youtube embed I want to embed the PG video in response.

Ghoooost. :3

I was thinking we could write it in a style like this Legend of Zelda fic. (It's about that David Jr. guy on Tingle Island.)

The difference would be more dialogue less narrative, and the chapters would be much longer single entries about each gym visit rather than several days to a chapter, with a few chapters set in the present showing Barry's current situation.

The things we do know about Barry:

• He gets defensive about his "manhood".
• He has a Nidoking.
• He is very gullible(by our standards).
• He is a universal Butt-Monkey.
• He can climb ledges(for sake of plot).
• May or may not be a Deadpan Snarker / Straight Man.

I miss anything?

We could do that too, but how would we all contribute to it?

We each write chapters.

Here's what I'm thinking for the format.

We start with a present-tense chapter just introducing the situation. No entry.

The next chapter is the first page of Barry's journal, detailing his visit to Brock, for example. After the entry, maybe just a brief present-time part such as Barry hiding his journal from Janine or Janine making some unreasonable demand.

Chapters are like that one, and every few chapters we have a journal-less one just illustrating his predicament.

The last one I have an idea for.

I mean how would we add to it? It'd just be an incomplete story, unless we put links to other people's chapters. The format is fine and all, but without the aforementioned point being addressed, It'll just be one that we're giving suggestions to.

Also, Barry doesn't know Janine's following him. (I think.) On the case if he's going to a different gym each week or something and coming back every time, it'd be too improbable due to travel times.

We'd have to make a topic for it, maybe?

Send all the pieces to one person who will compile them.

Wait I thought the premise of the story was Barry going around a working at Gyms and then leaving because of the various eccentricities of the Gym Leaders. The structure of the story that was posted a page back, doesn't really lend itself to that.

Similar to that one. It would be journal entries, but they would be long ones.

I meant more the narrative style than the format (But with more dialogue).

Also, Barry has no idea that Janine is watching him during the journey.

Actually, maybe a better style is that he had written the journal as he traveled, and is re-reading it now that he's stuck in Janine's gym. It would work the same way, but it would make it seem less like he's going to each gym rapidly.

So, you're saying he's already finished the Gym tour and came home to write in his journal about it?
