HOLIDAY HOTPOT MINGLE LOG
WHO: Firoza Istus, Ren Amamiya, and YOU!
WHAT: The results of the Holiday Hotpot player quest - and an open invitation for everyone to gather together and enjoy a hot meal!
WHEN: Monday, December 15th
WHERE: Bottlecap Bay, down on the beach
WARNINGS: I can't think of any, unless hot soup is a warning?
It may be a bit nippy with the wind coming in off the ocean, but the beach is the best place to construct and keep up a few large bonfires, if summer's events were any indication. Three pits have been dug and filled with firewood, and set up with large pots with dividers, full of savoury broth divided into a comforting, creamy concoction and a spicy, sweet surprise - options, after all, are not just a considerate consideration, but necessary!
There's plenty of food to add to these pots - lots of wild mushrooms plucked just before the harsher frosts claimed them, sliced berries, nuts, seeds, various leafy greens still clinging to their color, wild carrots and wild potatoes, seaweed...tofu? There's tofu. Some Pokemon in the Bay must make it and sell their excess, which is very generous of them. And, unless someone decides to surprise everyone with rice, there's bread to soak up all that lovely broth!
Looks like this is something you do together with others - cooking the bounty provided by your fellow otherworlders-turned-Pokemon, that is. The sand is thankfully, somehow, not wet, so you can sit there, wrapped up in your winterwear or a bolt of pressed wool provided for the occasion, watching your delicious meal simmer as you swap stories and laugh and have a good time, perhaps even make new friends with those outside of your assigned guild!
Which is exactly what your hosts, Ren and Firoza, would love for you to do! Don't be shy - come on and join us! There's plenty to go around!
[OOC: if you feel so inclined as to bring something along for the hot pot last minute, go right ahead! The more the merrier!]

[ She shifts her hair in an approximation of a shrug, but it also might be a knowing gesture toward the 'kids' she'd mentioned earlier. ]
Or it could just be a matter of powerful beings colliding with one another and drawing Pokémon in for an eventual war between creation and destruction. Who knows, really?
no subject
[She glances towards the two, tracing a shape in the sand absently. It's a little like looking back in time. She has to hope the others will be alright. For here and now…]
As a result of those energies? I wonder… We'd probably see some sort of sign. [But it doesn't seem impossible- or at least, not something that should be written off. It's just worrying.] I suppose we'd have to uncover more to know.
no subject
... Mm.
[ She has her own internal battle with what not knowing certain things has cost her. It's what allows her to come up with theories but still refraining from going as far as Akechi-san or others as deeply invested trying to unravel it fully. ]
I've heard that there are Pokémon who are considered to be mythical or legendary with possible powers connected to time, space, chaos, perception, among other concepts that could have resulted in this. It could be even more years before anything else significant happens unless their hand is forced. Still, if you keep your eyes and ears open, maybe you'll learn something new.

But, well! [She claps her hands together.] Research can wait- right now, we have good food awaiting! Right?
no subject
[ The mysteries would always be there, in her opinion. Delicious meal opportunities, one just shouldn't let pass by. ]
