August ALL THE THINGS (Quests and Open)
Who: Umemiya and you
When: August 2025
Where: In town, The Spire, Quest Locations
Summary: Umemiya settles in, offers his services, and starts getting to work
Warnings: None yet
Note: I default to prose; feel free to flip me to brackets
1. If it can be broke, then it can be fixed [Open, Around Town]
Now that he's gotten the tour and begun to meet everyone, Umemiya's exploring the town on his own--stopping by shops and cafes to introduce himself to the staff, pausing to kick a ball around with a young Ledyba, generally starting to integrate with society. If you're out and about on this lovely summer day, you might get the broadest smile that his snout-face is capable of, and a warm greeting.
"Hey! How's your day going, so far?" Teenage enthusiasm is on full display.
2. If it can be fused, then it can be split [Open, The Spire]
In the process of making friends out in town, one fact Umemiya's volunteered about himself is that he's looking for sparring partners, and he's up to the task of training others how to fight. All anyone needs to do is send him a Grumpearl message, and he'll be glad to meet them in the Spire's training rooms (or to escort them in, if they're from another guild).
Once he and his new training partner have secured one of the training rooms for themself, Umemiya's ears perk up. "So, where should we start?"
3. If if can be lost, then it can be won [For A.B.A, Carts before Charts]
Umemiya shows up to the part of the forest where resource gathering is taking place in a chipper mood, his aura-sensing tendrils tied back loosely with a scarf so they're not a distraction while they work. The young Lucario is about average height for his species, doing a few warm-up stretches to prepare for the upcoming workout. After all, it'd suck to strain anything on his very first quest.
4. If it can be touched, then it can be turned [For Ren, Home on Arrange]
Umemiya is eager to Do Teamwork with Ren, after how their first meeting went. Like, clearly they're cut from the same cloth, and will accomplish great things together. But he's also aware of how the small green cat is limping still.
"Hey. Are you sure you're up for this?" He's leaning against a tree at the edge of the designated area for the outpost, watching Ren's approach.
X. So here we are, reinventing the wheel [Wildcard]
[Feel free to hit me with anything else you're into! My discord and plurk are both darkersolstice if you wanna hit me for anything.]

"Yeah, I'm... gonna tap out." She shuffles backward, claws sheathed under her disguise. "You win—this time."
Though her tone is light and nonchalant, she can't quite keep the slight, shaken waver out of her voice.
"Y'know, you're not half bad... For a newbie. Almost like you've been a..." She looks him up and down (but avoids meeting his eyes). "... Whatever-you-are before."
no subject
He absolutely fires up Life Dew, the quiet sound of water dripping in a cave audible, before cool healing flashes over both of them. Because her tapping out like that, that's worrying. He must have pushed her too hard.
no subject
The healing aura washes over her, easing the aches of battle, but her disguise remains torn, its head still hanging limp, long ears nearly dragging on the ground.
"... Thanks... But I'm fine, seriously. Just need to patch up my disguise, that's all."
It's a feeble excuse, considering the fact that she fought on just fine through several turns even with her disguise broken, but she hopes he won't question it.
no subject
"...uh. Well. Tell me if you're ever up to that again, I guess. Sorry."
But he'll let her go with no further comment, taking the time to clean up the training room.
