Expect the Onix-pected

[dairius]

Jin felt... he wasn't sure. The concept of peace, and calm were foreign to him, yet this small creature did nothing but make him sure such things were possible. He saw Camomile and the revived pokemon moving outside, and he looked to the small pokemon for a moment. He felt like he had to say something but... the words couldn't quite form, in the end he uttered a simple. "Thank you..." Before moving to follow the others outside.

You make your way out of the museum. As you pass by the man who led you in, you can see him standing shocked at the creature that you follow after. When you guys make it outside, you look out over the battle. At first you see the bugs overrunning many locations, but then a burst of light from the easternmost part of the battle seems to cause the bugs to fall into disarray, fighting amongst themselves and ripping their own friends to pieces. Mew looks at you and Camomile and then squeaks and flies off over the battle. As it moves, you can see a wave of calm move over the battlefield, the bugs and the soldiers free of their wariness and weariness. The bugs effected turn away and begin returning to the forest, apparently no longer interested in conquest. The mew continues on, further over the forest itself, and as it does so, you feel as if the war might just be over. You guys head down to the battlefield, finding the soldiers celebrating and cheering and singing a rousing strain of "Oh, Pewter". You meet up with your pokemon who seems to have done well in the fighting, but is happy to see you. Brock comes by and shakes both your hands, obviously glad that the battle is ended. Camomile looks quiet happy as well, and after Brock leaves, she gives you a hug. "I didn't think it could possibly end this well. I am glad I was able to do what I could."
#Alright, so I think this is about the end of the story. If there is anything else you want to do in these last few days, let me know. Otherwise, let me know what your character plans to do in the future, as I will be writing up epilogues for all of the characters this weekend.

For all Jin had seen in his life, he was still baffled at what he was beholding here, now. A battle if he'd ever seen one, soldiers falling on both sides, mass mayhem and confusion that swallowed an entire city, over in the blink of an eye... it gave him some hope for home, but... As he looked down to Camomile who was currently enveloping him in a hug, he realized that land was no longer his home. "Yes... you truly started something amazing here, Camomile." He said returning the embrace and patting his newly evolved Primeape on the head. "And you, Jet- you did as well as I thought you would. I couldn't be more proud." As the last of the bugs took off he inwardly wondered what would become of them... did Mew's abilities promote a return to their original forms? Still some unknowns in all this, but nothing for a grunt like Jin to worry about right now.

Right now? He had other plans, for the first time he had something he wanted to keep hold of- or rather someone, that didn't fit into a small red-and-white ball. "I'm still up for whatever craziness you have planned next, but perhaps you earned a small break for a time..." He said as he produced a few of the higher end brochures he had picked up off Sadman. "I happen to know a few places that are quite nice, this time of year." He said with a smile, looking forward to his time in Kanto not just as a place of new beginnings, but as a place of happy endings as well.



#Well, one way or another I think Jin's sticking around Camomile until she decides to cut him loose, it might be a little awkward meeting her sister after his introduction to all of this

If Mew is willing to listen, he'd try explaining about the warring country he came from- perhaps it could work some of its magic there if it felt so inclined. He might offer another couple candy bars to sweeten the deal >.> <.<

Jin's done denying who he once was, he's just going to learn to control himself when he goes all commando. As such while his connection to the Rockets means he ends up on the South side of the law from time to time, he'll be out to help the downtrodden or those turning to such a life because of a lack of options in his extracurricular time.

Alright, expect an epilogue post this weekend wrapping everything up. Thank you for playing, you were great to DM for.

[dairius]

Glad I wasn't too much to handle at times, this was very fun- not used to a primarily solo game (from Jin's perspective, that is) pulling me in so much. Was worried about what I'd get done without tagging onto someone else's already running storyline, silly me

[Micah]

It was a bit rocky at first, but you made a strong connection with Camomile and that made it a lot easier. Just having various characters have conversations and talk is my favorite part of DMing, so it got a lot more enjoyable and fun for me when we got to that part. Glad you had fun as well.

[dairius]

Bit rocky at first? That wouldn't happen to be a pun due to the thread's name, would it? The names were probably one of my favorite parts from my first impression of this game, and sort of reminded me of the old anime which sort of sparked my love for Pokemon (on top of the older games).

Yeah, Jin was admittedly a little... undirected starting off, I was sort of trying to find where he fit in- seems that did work out quite nicely.

[Micah]

I'm afraid it was an unintentional pun. But yeah, the anime episode names are amazing and are where I got the idea for the thread titles. If you have never spent and hour going on Serebii and just reading all the episode titles of every pokemon episode outline, it is something I would recommend, especially if there is someone else in the room with a low pun tolerance.
