Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    "Hi," Dave said, putting out a paw to shake Buck's ear. "The name's Dave. This is Leaf, Jade and Laura. We're here looking for a Luxio who went missing in an incident on a train near here about three months back. Ring any bells?"

    Novelux Sparkwright Polytechnic

    The frontier of science in Forlas was, apparently, Sparkwright Polytechnic - and also, supposedly Gerome was here visiting. So long as they were in Novelux, it seemed like the obvious place to check out as far as touristing went. The hustle and bustle of the trade show at least was refreshingly...

    Frontier Town Drungfield's Remedies

    Dave exhaled through his nose, picking up his beer again. "That's a solution, I guess. Let them chase us out of the country, see if any other countries want to make us their problem instead." He finished the last of the bottle, then put it away on the nightstand. "Anyway, this is dead fucking...

    Novelux Copperridge Wharf

    Dave exhaled. "No, we're not cops. Jade here was on that train with her, and we're friendly with the missing girl's mom. If you had a missing kid who could be in danger, you'd be trying to do something about it, right?" Complicating this by blabbing the entire fucking tangle of everything...

    Frontier Town Drungfield's Remedies

    "Right now? Indefinite. But they're getting out someday if I have anything to say about it." Another sip of beer. It was refreshing to have people like Laura, who would just say that in a reasonable world none of this should be happening. God. "It's not technically house arrrest. They put it...

    "We're looking for a missing person," Dave said. "Was on a train close to here. Scuffle on the train, one of the cars got detached. Any of that sound familiar?" Hopefully, even if looking for Brisa wasn't enough of a reason to bother their precious boss, maybe he could at least watch their...

    Frontier Town Drungfield's Remedies

    Dave glanced at Laura, kind of surprised at how sympathetic she sounded. "Yeah," he said. "Yeah, they're all very human." He took another swig of his beer, trying to drown the weird lump in his throat. Another chomp on the sandwich and it just about went away. "But, you know, it's also a...

    Frontier Town Drungfield's Remedies

    Dave watched for Laura's reaction to the Pokémorphs. It wasn't much - probably she'd learned to maintain a straight face, in her line of work. Better than the outrage and disgust that he often dealt with. "Well... Whole thing was organized by this pair of brothers. One of them, the younger...

    Frontier Town Drungfield's Remedies

    Dave waved a paw. "Yeah, it's, uh. Not exactly a common occurrence. Most religious nutjobs stick to, I don't know, trying to guilt women out of having abortions. These people were a special kind of batshit who happened to get really fucking hung up on me. Us." What would Laura think of the...

    Frontier Town Drungfield's Remedies

    Laura's expression at his description was something. Yeah, it was all a fucking lot, wasn't it. Nonetheless, she just kept on making conversation, talking about wanting to do this more, before asking for elaboration. Bless this girl, honestly. He swallowed his current bit of sandwich, then...

    Frontier Town Drungfield's Remedies

    "...Huh. Thanks." He reached for the bottle of beer, nice and cold, cracked it open on the edge of the table and had a sip. God. He'd needed that. "I mean, there was that time I got shot, but I didn't exactly get showered with gifts for that one. Visitors were pretty preoccupied with the bit...

    Frontier Town Drungfield's Remedies

    After the initial examination and application of stitches, disinfectant and berry poultices he couldn't name, Dave'd been left to rest. Everything still ached and stung, but the cool tingling of the medicine made it all a bit more bearable. He drifted off in one of the infirmary's beds...

    Brisa. It'd been so long Dave wasn't sure at this point if there was even any point in looking anymore. She could be anywhere. Could just be dead, even if she hadn't been before. But here he was anyway. Something made it hard to leave this particular thread alone, once people were bringing up...

    Threadmarks: [Ch06] Dave and Laura Discuss the Quarry

    Just making it to Drungfield's office was a heroic ordeal, but make it he did. By the time he was up on the examination table he was ready to sleep for a fucking week, body and aura aching for time to recover. At the same time, his half-delirious mind was abuzz with scientific theories that...

    Dies Twice Mafia - Game Thread

    Good job, mafia! I wish I'd been around for the endgame - things got a bit quiet and I would've enjoyed trying to prod a bit more. I do hope we can play another game sometime that's more active!

    Offscreen Activities

    At first Dave rolls his eyes at Mewtwo's talk about the power of friendship. Alternately that and staring as Giovanni chuckles like a maniac about trust and love. But then, as he explains more, an actually interesting hypothesis starts to form. Something specific to humans and Pokémon's auras...

    Sojaveña Wilds Twilight Quarry

    On the one hand, it was tempting to immediately pop out of existence and stop dealing with any of this. On the other hand, if this was how it was going to be, it was about time he got to judge this fucking guy for himself, instead of squinting at every bizarre third-person report about him...

    Sojaveña Wilds Twilight Quarry

    Really? No one else disliked this? Well, what-the-fuck-ever. Just a crime boss from another world in the body of a destructive mutant, but he was nice now, supposedly. "Sorry, are you proposing you put us in balls and then haul us off and then pinkie-promise to let us out in Frontier Town?"...

    Sojaveña Wilds Twilight Quarry

    It wasn't exactly dignified, but Koa managed to get behind him and just plain push him up the slope until he'd managed to get enough of a grip to clamber up the rest of the way. They were out of the dungeon. Dave took heaving breaths as he tried to recover, unable to speak but nodding at Koa...

    Sojaveña Wilds Twilight Quarry

    Jesus fuck. This mission just did not let up, did it. Dave glanced around, muscles burning. Was everyone there making it out? Koa was definitely with them, right? He'd seen him use the Escape Orb, right? ...No, he wasn't. He skidded to a halt and turned around and found the Electrike standing...
