October Catch-All

[0dchess]

Who: Kinger, Cedric, and You (especially fellow Oran Berries?)
What: Kinger coming to terms with being a Pokémon in Bottlecap Bay
Where: The Spire (plus anywhere a Wildcard takes us)
When: Early October
Warnings: At least amnesia? I can't think of any others right now.


1. Right Behind You

Yelling from the training rooms is sometimes par for the course for the sound of exertion and combat. What probably is less common is short screams of varying tones.

Anyone who investigates will find Kinger, circling a training dummy while making short yelps and screams, attempting to Astonish the dummy. He sounds like he's starting to get a little hoarse, but he is singularly focused on the dummy and doesn't notice when you approach.

2. Sea Seeking King

Despite having a body that, for the first time in decades, probably needs sleep, a few nights in to his stay he can't. His newly tiny stature gives him the luxury that few others in Oran housing have, which is to sneak out without waking his roommates. Probably.

He wanders his way outside to stand at the cliffside, feeling the cold spray of saltwater from the ocean. He laughs to himself quietly.

"It's real. I'm not in the circus anymore."

He sits near the cliffside, just enjoying the delicate feeling of salty autumn air that nothing in the digital world could possibly replicate. He lets off a faint glow, making himself visible to anyone else restless tonight.

3. Wildcard

Feel free to hit me up with any other ideas for my little mushroom man! I will also be throwing any prompts we discuss elsewhere under this.

"Oh, so sometimes it's just color coded?" Kinger asks, curiously. "So are you a water type, or just blue?"

[truthdecided]

"Well, no. I'm pure flying for now..." He touches the black feathers around his face. "Though, the colors do resemble a costume I wore before, and I'm eventually going to evolve into an enormous, armored raven."

[0dchess]

"Evolve? Do you mean you know what your species will look like in millions of years?"

Also, a costume? Was Akechi a superhero? Is seeing the future his power? Is Kinger friends with a superhero now!?

[truthdecided]

"It's closer to a metamorphosis than Darwin's theory of evolution." How to put it... He taps below his beak with his left wing. "When Pokémon evolve, their forms change, typically growing larger and more powerful in the process. They may gain an additional type, or brand new abilities. In my case, I'm to eventually become a steel and flying type."

[0dchess]

"Ohhh! Pokémon are like insects!" Kinger says, excitedly. "Except we get stronger by butting our heads against each other like stag beetles!"

Kinger stares off as he daydreams what he might metamorphosize into, maybe some sort of mushroom butterfly!
