QUEST CATCH ALL - JUNE
Who: Emporio, A.B.A, Siffrin, Sanji, Ring-Spirit, Technus, and Flowey (And maybe others?)
What: QUESTS! QUESTS!
Where: The town, and a bit of the forest
When: Throughout June
Warnings: Will be added as needed
{TALKING HEADS - CLOSED: TECHNUS, FLOWEY}
[It's not the first missing Pokemon case that Emporio has worked on, but it's certainly been a while since he took part on such a Quest all the same. Last time it was a Pumpkaboo who wandered off a total of three times before he even got to it. This time...
Well, this time he gets to the Questboard just in time to see two others there- one from each of the other Guilds, in fact.
Needless to say that has him pause. These are both familiar faces, more or less.] ...Flowey?
Technus?
[Honestly he just really hopes they weren't about to argue about who gets the quest. They're a group effort deal after all, and hey, the more the merrier right?]
...Are you making a team for today?
[Also, can he join??]
{BROKEN BRICKS - BRICK BY BRICK MINGLE}
[Emporio is quite relieved to be doing a gathering quest like this. He might not have any ground move to speak of, but there's just something...relaxing about working with the mud like this. The water isn't pure enough to give him a rash. It's even, dare he say it, rejuvenating. Getting as distracted as he does, it's easy for him to lose track of time...and also, of his teammates.]
Hmmhmhmmm....
[But really, who would bug him, he's even humming a song!]
{ANOTHER BRICK IN THE WALL - BEST OFFENSE MINGLE}
[Actually putting to use the bricks he just helped built is quite the novel thing. Making the bricks themselves was relaxing. Fulfilling, even. Putting the bricks together should, in theory feel something the same, but that's all in theory.
After all, his team mates seem to be having...a little trouble? Only a little though, but...hm.]
It looks like we're supposed to put the base together for now, [he observes, looking from the marked off wall area, to the bricks, and then to the others.]
...How much can you both lift anyway..?
[It's a fair question, he thinks.]

...If you've been to the Middle, you've seen the fog...it's still there in the South, but it isn't as powerful.
What is powerful is... ...something else though. Time and space itself doesn't work there. People can go in for what feels like an hour and come back after days, and the paths never stay the same.
...Compared to that though, and the North is...nice. There's no fog at all up there.
[He pauses, thinking about that though.] ...Though, we do need to watch out for spores.

I HAVE AN ADVANTAGE OVER YOU TWO- I CAN GO A WHILE WITHOUT BREATHING!!
no subject
Anyway! More questioning witnesses, or are we heading north, oh wise leader? [He turns to Emporio.]
no subject
I just brought it up because...well, it's still something to worry about. But it's nothing that Dr. Denne- or even I- can't handle.
I think with that in mind though...we'll head for the forest. We have to pass through your Guild territory to get there actually, [he says with a look to Flowey,] So there's a chance someone in the Canopy might have seen more clearly what direction Zweilous went!
no subject
RIGHT, THAT WOULD MAKE SENSE. IF SOMEONE ELSE HAS A BETTER IDEA, THAT WILL SPARE US TIME WANDERING THROUGH THE FOREST!
cw: disassociation
[Even though he says this, he mostly leads them in the direction of the Canopy. He questions a few Pokemon with the others' help and learns that there may be signs of a trail that they can follow--
Who are 'they'? What are they even doing? Are they really themselves anymore? Were they ever to begin with?
... A second later, the feeling is gone. Disassociation, chills, confusion-- someone walking over your grave. He remembers: he's Flowey. He chose that name. He was sent here after everyone else went to the surface.
He looks at the others to see if they experienced this feeling or if he's just finally losing it.] G-golly, that was weird! Anyone feel that? Just me?
no subject
[Easy peasy, right? They start making their way for the Canopy, and soon enough they're ready to head for the woods itself. With the trail they've got, and the information on Zweilous over all, there should be no issues whatsoever.
Except...for that wave.
It's familiar- at least for Emporio. Just like when he looked for Phantump. That horrible, crawling feeling that tried to make him question who he was, down to the core.]
NGh-
[He takes a deep, shuddering breath.] It...
It's not just you. D...don't focus too much on it though, okay? [he tries to reassure.] We're exactly who we are, trust me.
