    You train with Lenora and her retired but still fairly impressive Pokemon for a few hours. Lenora enjoys the time off, though there are frequent breaks when she attends some museum matter or two. You're left feeling a little tired, but the frequent breaks make it easy to recuperate some of your...

    "I... need to get stronger. Lenora... could you train me while Millie is out at work?" "Train you?" Lenora brings her hand to her sea green hair. "I haven't done that in a while, not seriously, but... Well, sure." She shrugged. "Maybe we can learn a thing or two. And my Pokemon would really...

    "If they ask, I'm just a regular, boring, plain old rock. A... doorstopper. Yeah, that's it," you say, quietly, to Millie and Lenora. 'Quietly,' you hope, since it's just selective telepathy, and you hope that got the point across enough. "Ahh... not really, no," Millie says. "Um, are you...

    You drift off into something like a trance. Maybe it's sleep, maybe it isn't. You are vaguely aware of your surroundings all night, but it does not feel as relevant to you. Everything relaxes. Your energies have time to reorient. And by the time the human stirs for her morning routine, you feel...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 174 - Overseer Evaluation

    Thanks, all, for your reviews! I responded to you elsewhere, but they're appreciated as always. Chapter 174 – Overseer Evaluation Ho-Oh was a lot bigger in person. And imposing. Compared to Lugia, compared to any other Legend he’d met in Kilo, Ho-Oh radiated an aura of someone who… was far...

    It is nice to relax without having to worry about your memories or the other things you do not know. But there is one thing you could solve... Your name! For now, at least. "How about... Cobble?" "...As in, Cobble Stone?" "Yes! That seems appropriate. It's an idea I got." Millie sighs...

    "Are distortions appearing all over the world," you say, "or only in Unova?" "Oh. They're just here and in Kalos. Kind of." "Kind of." Millie takes out her phone--another, smaller box of light--and flicks her fingers through it. How fascinating... One box uses a device to control it, and...

    You had spent only a few moments awake and Millie was the first person to find you. Now, she is in danger. It makes sense to do everything you can to protect her for one reason or another. You quickly spring into action, drawing from an unknown, deep well of energy within you, so far out of...

    If a post ends with (!) at the end, that is basically an alert that it will go away by the start of the next one if nobody refreshes it. So, before you even introduce the new thing, it will have already been gone. Put another way, the (!) notation ONLY exists as an "end of post" checkup, and...

    "You aren't a fighter, right?" you ask Millie. "Not really... I used to train as a hobby, but that fell off. Now I go hiking when I'm not at work. You know, simple hobbies." "I am not good at fighting, either," you say. "We shouldn't risk going into that place just yet." "Right. Let's try to...

    "I'll go with you for now," you say. You do not know anything about this place. If Millie is going to be friendly and helpful, you are best off to take the offer. "Great. If that's the case, I'll just take a short walk back!" With a smile and gently patting you into her bag, Millie walks out...

    Oh, Negrek, that's a typo on my part. Not sure why I put Town there; City is actually correct. I'll edit that.

    1. There appears to be no visible damage, but you feel 'damaged' in the aura sense. The rock itself is not hurt yet. 2. Yes those are called Considerations

    Millie listens first to the great ramblings of you, a seemingly maddened rock. She starts off with a smile, and picks the rock up to inspect it, turning it over and looking for signs of a speaker. Odd, you can get the impression of some of her intents just by proximity. Once you're done...

    Pokémon Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Fogcut Voyage

    This'll be a review of the prologue and first chapter! Most of it is thoughts I've had as I read, with a retrospective at the end. Interesting opening prologue. It doesn't really feel like a prologue, though. It seems more like something that could be labeled as a Chapter 1 initial scene since...

    You are lost and without any memories of what happened or why you were there. At this point, even a potentially hostile presence might be better than nothing. That is your conclusion. So, with the energy you have, you roll forward and follow the canine as quickly as you can. Unfortunately, that...

    I've gotten a decent rhythm going. I think once 24 hours pass after I make my post, I'll start drafting out the next post, and then once I'm available, I'll post it. I'll make some changes based on new posts made between then and publication, of course. But that seems to be a good system.

    Thanks for the reviews, Makuro, Wind! Glad that you can get back into things, Wind, and it wasn't too disorienting after so long. And glad you got to the Grassmander part of the story, Makuro. Lots of awkwardness in those early chapters, but it's nice that they're still passable. Anyway, onto...

    There was no telling when you would wake up again, if it would be the next day or year, or how many years had already passed. Yes! You had to take action, past your doubts and your caution. But what were you supposed to do? Take action, what did that mean when you lacked any kind of sense? You...
