“Hana!”

You run out to her, but the Chinchou sparks at you. It looks more scared than anything.

The Seel all whip their heads towards the danger, and your pokemon are looking too. Keira’s Nincada climbs to the top of her head.

Hana, with a hurt and stunned look on her face, falls over onto the sand. Her torso, head, and normal arm flail but ultimately can’t help her keep her balance.

Keira takes an unsure step towards Hana. Then another. Chinchou hasn’t noticed her yet.

Hey, Gobble. Don't forget to say the thread started on Twitter.

>>1197119
This is probably best; aggression will make it attack more and it's stupid to touch someone if we aren't certain if there's still electricity.

This sounds good. We need this little guy, misbehaving or not.

Yeah, keep it occupied so it can't do any more damage, but don't make it any more aggressive either.

“Hey! Hey!” You wave to the Chinchou. Belladonna waves with you, and gives little extra flourishes. Mace looks alarmed at the idea, but flails around too. Dice just absentmindedly joins in without really looking like he understands why. Gobble is giving it his all. “Chinchou! Over here!”

Chinchou looks at you and your pokemon waving around and making noise. Belladonna fires Pinn Missile into the air, and Dice spits up some water. No way he’ll miss you.

And he doesn’t. But he looks very scared. He unleashes Thunderwave in Keira's direction at random. But missed by a mile as Chinchou trips over the sand and falls on it’s face. This still causes all the Seel to run off, though. You guess they naturally fear an electric type.

“I’m okay.” you hear Hana just barely, under the sound of the Seel stampede. Keira is trying to help her up, but unable to lift her and just ends up pulling her feet into the sand. She tries again and falls on top of the poor girl.

Chinchou digs it’s face out of the sand and looks back up at you, Keira, and everyone else. It flinches in fear, then starts backing away to the sea.

“Sorry, Hana.” Keira removes her hands from Hana and gets off of her.

You squat down and open your arms wide in a welcoming gesture.“Chinchou, don’t leave. We’re not mad at you.”

It pauses. It can’t decide if this is a trap or not. But it seems to like your approach and doesn’t run away. It even starts cracking a relieved smile.

“I’m a little upset.” Hana huffs hair out of her face. Her voice carries a frustrated edge you haven’t heard from her before. You guess a shock like that would make anyone upset. “But I’ll get over it.” She pushes herself over with what looks liked a decently practiced move so she can face Chinchou. “I don’t want to battle you because I’m mad, Chinchou, but I do want to battle you.”

It thinks. You can almost see it’s thoughts because you’re thinking along the same lines. If it’s a trap, why would she announce that? Why not get him to lower his guard and attack?

It relaxes just a little, and even moves forward.

“My name- uff,” she pulls herself an inch over, “is Hana.”

It gets a lot closer. Almost within reach.

Her arm suddenly and without control slams into the ground at full force. It throws up sand, a lot of it directly into her own face.

Chinchou squeaks and runs for the sea. It runs right by you. No way you’ll be able to cut it off from here with your pokemon, but maybe you can still stop it.

Not wanting to somehow make the situation even worse, you decide not to chase after it.

Hana watches, then stops stretches her neck and plops her face into the sand.

“Is there anything we can do?”

“Leave me until the tide comes in.” She sounds completely defeated.

Keira giggles at the sarcastic comment. “You’re funny.”

Something about the sunny disposition of the young priestess makes Hana push aside her bad mood enough to stop moping. She still sighs, though. “I think I know what’s wrong. Can you get my bag?”

Keira nods and runs off to it. You move to be closer to Hana. You aren’t sure what to do and offer a hand. She takes it. Being a bit sturdier than the petite Keira, you’re able to at least pull her forward so she’s sitting up. You do it a little too hard though and she falls with her face in your crotch.

You both very quickly scramble to rectify the situation and pretend it didn’t happen. She must still be upset because she’s as red as an heirloom tomato. You aren’t quite sure what she mumbles to herself, but it even sounded like she called someone a huge dick. You hope she’s just blowing off steam.

Your pokemon come over to offer her support to lean on. That helps with the awkwardness.

“Sorry I blew it.” She tells you. “You put a lot of work into this, too.”

You look over over. Her one arm just hanging there, wet sand clinging to her hair and face. Wet shirt. You put your eyes back on the sand on her face.

“I don’t have what it takes to be a trainer like you or Polu or Jane. Maybe I should look at something else.”

and then we could overhear some "things" going on at night

I like the sound of that.

I'm not necessarily for or against the Truth or Dare game, but if everyone isn't around to take part, then i don't see the point

>>1197457
Truth or dare sounds like something Hana would start.

Or Jane if she thought it would help her one up Herb.

>>1197462
or val to be more outgoing

or laki because she's laki

>>1197464
>>1197462
Hana would suggest it to Val to help her be more outgoing.

>>1197457
Well it could be something done more than once. First time to break the ice or get their imaginations going. The second time could get a bit more 'lewd bin'

>>1197469
Or how about the first time gets just lewd enough to be exciting for these crazy kids, then the second time comes when Hana suggests a private game with Herb.

>>1197476
Could also do have a private game with Val/Hana, Laki/Val, Hana/Jane(for hilarity purposes) and Herb with any of the above.

>>1197502
I'd be happy with a private game involving Herb, Val, and Hana. That would be ideal for me, I think.

>>1197506
Sounds good, what with Val playing the wingwoman.

You know what game is really good for mixed company and dice-based arbitration?

Spinda bottle.

>>1197506
I'd prefer it for story/daaw'ing purposes, but the idea of Hana trying to arrange for a private game when Jane barges in and ends up inserting herself was really amusing for me.

“Stop that talk right now!” Your voice comes out more forceful than you intended. “Dice bit me when we first met, and Gobble only helped because I promised food, and Mace ran away after our first encounter.”

Hana looks shocked by your outburst. She turns away so her hair covers her eyes from your view. “But I’m not as good as you, okay?” Her voice is a whisper.

“It is not our abilities that show what we truly are. It is our choices.” You do your best to quote that wizard from that movie. You want to tell her that she is good, but you know you can’t convince somebody of that. They have to see it with their own eyes. Mom taught you that when you tried cheering on your little brother.

She doesn’t say anything, then she sniffs, and then she lets out a snorty laugh.

“The DVD commentary for that one was really good.”

You’re not sure what to say and just sort of push air out your nose in a proto-laugh. She turns to you, this time with a smile.

“Oh, there’s some sand on your face.” You reach out and brush it off.

“Is this it?” Keira says as she drags the bag over and drops it by the two of you.

Hana nearly leaps. “Y-yeah. Thanks.”

To make things even more humiliating for Hana, Laki and Valerie emerge from the bushes. Val runs over and has to be assured that things are fine, and Laki watches without comment or expression.

She takes out some tools and starts messing with her arm and legs. For some reason it seems less invasive to look at her wet shirt cling to her boobs as her arm movements push them together than it does to watch her fiddle with pieces of her limbs.

Not that you’d look at poor innocent Hana like that.

More than once.

Or twice.

“Okay. All done.” Hana says, excusing self consciousness. “Sorry, everyone.”

Of course everyone tells her it’s fine.

“What happened?” Keira asks, not being able to read the mood. “I’ve heard of machine spirits. Were they upset? I don’t sense anything from them but I don’t know machines.”

Hana awkwardly explains that there was a lot of wear and tear on the arm and she knew it needed fixing for a long, but didn’t know the insulation was that gone. She again apologizes for being so negligent and causing everyone to worry.

“Do you need to see a mechanical priest?”

Her arm moves at a very, very slow pace. Her legs seem okay for now, though. “Umm, no. Well, it’s just the parts. Last time it took forever to get the parts in. I don’t want to stop my journey.”

“I can get papa to try to rush things.”

Hana really doesn’t want to impose on Valerie more than she has.

“You can get anything at Take, if you don’t mind it falling off a truck.” Laki comments.

Hana perks up. “You mean...”

“It’s not that dangerous.” Keira says. “The temple is really nice.”

Laki holds back a comment. You suspect maybe the temple is an exception. You're not that great at reading people, but you feel like your time with her is making you good at reading her, at least.

>Let’s all go to Take!

>>1197536
>Let’s all go to Take!
Surely Hana can put an order in for new parts and cancel it if she finds something at Take? Least that way if there's nothing there she doesn't have to wait longer for the parts.

Why is shipping a problem? Surely anywhere equipped with the technology to transfer pokemon be able to do the same with machine parts? I'd definitely buy that the islands haven't been hooked up with those sweet underwater cables connecting to the mainland, assuming it can't be done via satellite.

I'm pretty sure that's a pokeball exclusive thing. People still send letters via pelipper post instead of just zapping it.

Although, thinking about it, there's really no reason you couldn't have a pokemon hold it and send them both.

>>1197621
held item's weren't a thing in old pokemon quest, but this one sort of does at least? Which I find confusing to be honest, though if they are a thing then it's not a bad idea.

>>1197644
I think that in third gen mail-as-held-item was an actual mechanic.

>>1197644
Last quest was more competitive, and I assume it's easier to tighten up a matchup if you take held items out of the equation. Gobble already made it more abusable by removing the move limit, no reason to add even more shenanigans.

This quest's more easygoing, so it feels like battle balance isn't quite so important.

“Let’s all go to Take!” You declare. “Umm, if that’s okay with everyone.”

“My kind of place.” Laki puts her hands behind her head.

“It’ll be an adventure.” Valerie says.

“I’d love to see the other parts besides the temple.”

Everyone turns to Hana.

“Well, if everyone else wants to go...”

“Going to Teotake, are ya?” The fisherman from the booth walks over. He looks a lot more hunched over when he’s not behind the little desk of his shack. “Good. You can get me a bolt of Ariados silk, then.”

“Teotake?” You whisper to Laki.

“Teotake is the island. Taki is the city.” SHe clarifies quietly.

“Eh? Time to chat amongst yourselves, huh? Well, given how that hack Aisake teaches you to fish by just waiting around, it should be surprising.” He hands you the list. The bolt of silk is just one of a few items. He says he wants you to help his cousin on another island, fetch a rare gem you’re not sure where to get, and a whole lot of bamboo. Also to prepare a bunch of bait.

“Save the bait for last. Still got plenty, despite youngsters just giving it out without catching anything.” He rolls his eyes and walks off. He stops and turns around to bow to Keira. “No offense meant, young priestess.”

She giggles. “It’s okay. Go with blessings.” She makes a quick gesture to him before letting him be on his way.

“So, does everyone want to ride in the yacht? We can leave tomorrow.”

“Good idea.” Laki says. “It won’t take long by boat, and you don’t want to get there at night. Lots of rocks.”

“Fabulous! Well, there’s room on the yacht, although someone might need to...share a bunk.” Her voice trails off as she slowly looks up at Laki.

“I’m good. I’ll sleep on the beach tonight.” Laki’s response surprises Valerie.

“I should go stay with the younger priestesses tonight.” Keira says. “High Priest Makai is probably up to his ears in questions. He’ll appreciate it if I distract them.”

“How about you, Herb?” Valerie asks.

I wish we could go harem, they are all great but it's not what anons want and I'm also inclined to agree with them as all the girls are all amazing characters and I don't want the screen time for them to be reduced in favor of a harem. If I can't get Jane I will settle for Laki or Hana

“The ship sounds nice.” You don’t mind roughing it, but the thought of a nice, soft bed really sounds great right now. Your journey has been pretty rough on your body. “And Laki, if Keira isn’t coming, that means you won’t have to share a bunk.”

“That’s some inescapable logic you’ve got there, Soft Hands.” Laki tells you. “Alright. You pinched my underarm.”

“That’s a old timey expression.” Hana tells you.

“Old timey?”

You say goodbye to Keira for now. She says she’ll be back in the morning.

The four of you climb into the boat. You even have a chance to use the shower and get a fancy, fluffy towel. You maybe spend a little extra time in there, but Valerie tells you it’s no problem. You scrub down your pokemon too as an excuse to stay in longer. Nobody minds, except for maybe Mace, but even he enjoys being clean.

“It springs up like that naturally?” Valerie asks when you come out.

Hana’s arm spazzes. She gets it under control quickly.

“My hair? Yeah. I wish it was easier to style.”

“It suits you.” She says. “Well, sleep tight. Make yourself at home and feel free to grab any of the drinks in the cabin, except for alcohol in the bar, of course.”

“Night!” Hana says. “And Herb, thanks.” Hana doesn’t wait for a response. She closes her door.

Huh. You haven’t seen Laki. Maybe she already went to bed?

You yawn.

You decide to go to the cabin to practice healing your pokemon.

“Soft Hands. You’re not going to bed?” You’re surprised to see Laki there. She’s looking out the window out at the stars over the sea.

“I thought I’d try healing my pokemon.” You close your eyes and put your hands on Mace. You don’t feel any different. You try Dice, then Gobble.

You don’t do much. You guess you’re just drained. A good night’s sleep will help your pokemon, but you still think the ones that fought in the gym battle won’t be fully healed even after that.

“Impressive.” Laki looks back long enough to watch you droop over. “Hey, Soft Hands!”

“Hmm? Sorry." You yawn, barely keeping your eyes open. "So tired.”

She smiles down at you, then lifts you up with a grunt. “Tuckered out, huh? I guess you can get away without a massage tonight. Come on.” She starts carrying you down the hall.

“Laki?” You mumble to the warm presence carrying you.

“What’s up, Soft Hands?”

“Can you help me get stronger?”

“Yeah. I can do that. It’s easy. Well, not easy, but simple. Lots of people have opinions on the best way to train, but if you ask me, all it takes is pushing your muscles until they give out. Push until failure, then rinse and repeat. It takes effort though. But if you don’t really try your hardest, they don’t really fail. Make sense?”

“Yeah.” You yawn. “That makes sense.”

She hitches you up to get a better grip. You’re jolted back awake. You think you were only out for a second.

“Laki?”

“Yeah, Soft Hands?”

“Are you okay? Is something on your mind?”

“Nothing new is on my mind. I guess. I heard what you said to Hana about ability and choices. Pretty corny stuff.” You feel yourself gently lowered on a bed. Your shirt and pants are taken off. You’re too tired to care about it right now. That and you wear really stylish boxers that aren’t that different from your bathing suit. “Just got me thinking about the past.”

“But you’re okay?” You can barely keep yourself from drifting off.

“Fine. If you don’t really try, you can’t really fail, right?”

You wake up the next morning to a gentle hum and rocking. You quickly get up and stub your toe on Mace. “Sorry.” You say as you hop over to your clothes to get dressed.

“Herb! You missed it!” Valerie tells you. “There was a spirit.”

Keira nods. “Yup! But it might come back.”

“Might come back?” Valerie turns pale.

Hana seems a little scared too, but she’s still eating her cereal. They explain they left port and let you sleep in. You should be arriving at Teotake soon.

“A spirit?”

“A ghost pokemon.” Laki says after spitting into the sink. She puts her toothbrush down and gets more water to rinse her mouth.

“Which one was it?”

“I didn’t see. But it was screeching. I gave it directions to the next world, but I think it was just more interested in scaring people for now.”

“Well, it worked.” Valerie says. “I couldn’t sleep alone last night.”

“Me either.” Hana says.

Laki stretches. “Yeah, well, don’t expect me to put up with you two every night. I like my space when I sleep.”

No she doesn’t.

at 40lbs, I doubt he'd even need to use his jets if Herb's using him like a dumbbell. He could be pretty useful for weighted pullups too.

She slept with the scared girls.

I can totally imagine Gobble evolving on the boat during training and having the thing nearly tip over.

“Laki, can we start training now?”

“You were serious, huh? Alright. But no wussing out.”

Valerie clasps her hands together. “Oh, are you going to be doing something like morning yoga? I miss my classes.”

Laki smiles a little condescendingly. “Herb. Get Belladonna.”

You ask Bella to come over. Laki tells you to lift her up and hold her out.

“Okay, now what?”

“That’s it. Hold her there.”

“For how long?” She doesn't weigh much. This should be easy.

“Until you can’t anymore. Not until you don’t feel like it, but until you can’t.” She leans to Bella. “If Herb puts you down before I say so, hit him with a Pin Missile, okay?”

Bella cheers an affirmative.

“Laki!”

“Kidding, kidding.” She leans to Bella and winks. “Not kidding.”

It gets really hard after a while. You keep it up as hard as you can though. Gobble joins you, doing the same thing Laki’s Meowth. It threatens him with claws but ultimately decides to go with it as the sunlight makes it comfortable and sleepy.

Hana says nothing. She just watches and eats her cereal. Valerie gives you a thumbs up before talking to her pokemon about their next contest.

“Exercise is good for spiritual energy.” Keira tells you. “A strong body and mind compliment each other.”

“Does that mean you want to train too? After this, Herb is moving on to Dice.”

Your arms shake and sweat runs down your face. How many minutes has it been? Laki flicks your sagging arm.

Keira shies away. “Well, you know. I have to keep an eye out for more spirits...”

Laki smiles again. She looks like she's really in her element. She turns back to you. "Today is a warmup. It's going to get a lot harder. I hope you're willing to commit."

Your arms are so upset with you right now. They're letting Bella droop.

She flashes a small Pin Missile and an evil grin. You raise her back up.
