Well, Renny brought it over for a check-up. Ricewood probably analyzed Mollesk and got a tons of data on it that could be used for scientific purposes. In a society like Honmyrr where wild pokemon run rampant, knowing a pokemon's specific abilities helps law enforcement teams be able to control/counter them. Also, since Ricewood makes equipments and accessories for slayers, you can say that any discoveries that she makes from the contributions of trainers showing newly discovered pokemons help law enforcement and thus society. And that's before taking anything else in consideration like medicine and such... (She probably analyzed the Mollesk wine instead of drinking it... >_<)

In fact, you could probably say that it was Mollesk that inspired Ricewood to make the Crit accessory since Crits helps bypass the huge defenses that would come from it buffing itself. (If the crit is a massive one instead of a standard one).

Actually, it was gonna be more of an either-or kinda thing.

...
Yeah, see that picture you drew.

Anyway, it was just an argument. I wasn't threatening or saying that it would be that way.

Actually, the one after Pierce's is the beach mission.

We don't technically know when the arena mission will be, but I'm pretty sure it won't happen at least until after we've gone to the Netherworld.

Sure.

Huh, did you?


And yeah, Renny getting some nice cash for providing detailed and potentially important information about a newly discovered pokemon doesn't really scream decadence all that much to me.

Thank you reminding me. If some posts have already been made, then I'll go ahead and kick off the Pokebrid shenanigans.

The length of the intermission depends mostly on Dracorian. I think the best time to move things along is when he's already at Millenium House by himself. Then we'll find out about it.

Today's my duty day, and I intend to use that day to put all the new characters (Marionata, Twiloch, Mio, Sakuya, Silk, and Laurith) into the document so you can decide who to have in your respective DSS setups.

There will essentially three teams. Pierce, by himself, is the first team, so he doesn't make any DSS choices. He'll pick up and drop off characters throughout his little solo campaign.

That leaves a Main Entrance squad and a Maintenance Entrance squad. Certain characters won't be available. Lexhur's big ass is too big to participate, so he's gonna be sided with a fourth squad whose purpose is to wait outside and keep the bastards we want to kill from escaping. Rayleen and Sakuya will also not be available for mysterious reasons. I'll have to look at those PMs from Dracorian, but I think Chizuru also won't be available.

And don't be complaining about Renny getting money. I mean, it's just money. You guys make a lot of it on your own through your paychecks. All it really does is allow you to tell certain parts of your story in different ways.

What I meant in terms of time frame for the intermission was more like the length of time in character that passes before Pierce kicks things off. I doubt he'll wait several months, knowing that Sam is in Faynoc's clutches. But he'll probably be waiting for a little bit, hoping that PATCA acts fast enough or using that time to sneak enough info from looking up documents and asking innocuous questions until he feels he has enough info to dive in by himself. Which might be about 2-3 weeks. Then again, you said that Pokebrid mating season tends to last 3 straight months.

Unless you intend for the pokebrids to be entering the mission while still feeling hot and bothered! That would be interesting in some regards! :3:


And I get the feeling that Laurith would be paired up with Aster because her muteness would be mostly negated if Aster had free reign to read her mind and act as her middle-man translator.

Time frame? Perhaps a week. I think Dracorian probably wanted it to be kicked of that very night, but there could be a few days before he actually gets the information he needs. Judging from his PMs, his old buddies like to toy with him.

I didn't even mention them in the post, but Lucian and Discord will also be available (the Pokemon they lost will be replaced by something a little less legendary).

Ah, so the pokebrids are still going to be under the influence of lust during this mission (and perhaps the next one, the beach mission)

Including Matthias. ^,^

And Renny too since he's getting Pokebrid, unless you need to have been a pokebrid for a while before it takes effect or something like that.

I'm not sure, yet. I need to think about it. Actually, yes. It's gonna be pretty weird...

Renny: "So, how did the operation go?"
Jeanette: "It was a complete success. How do you feel?"
Renny: "...Wanna fuck?"
Jeanette: "Yeah, I think you need to get back to your mission."
Renny: "Oh, right, the mission!"
Jeanette: "..."
Renny: "..."
Jeanette: "So..."
Renny: "Just a quickie, then?"
Jeanette: "Go away!"

Yeah, a week sounds about right. It's just about enough time for Pierce to deal with Tyranitar going through puberty.

You and me need to actually get together and write that shit up, huh?

... Or we could just procrastinate, that'd work too.

Yes, Pierce's old buddies are bastards.

So are wwe just going to like, leave Mio the way Faynoc left her?

Like, wasn't she really 10 years old? Are we just going to leave her looking aged up and recruit her into a law enforcement agency to further worsen the mental scars?

I'm leaving this in orange because I'm honestly curious.

Well, she seems to be handling it pretty well, you know.
