“Okay, I’ll go right away, then! Watch for my call. And when you talk to Cola, don’t worry too much. Just remember that you don’t just want to focus on what bad things you aren’t going to do. Talk about the good things you’re going to do, too. That’s another tip from Mudkip.” They hadn’t been...

I enjoy these sorts of scenes a lot! Obviously it’s always a question of execution, and when the tone swings around between scenes unintentionally, it’s awful. (Or, maybe, hilarious.) But I think introducing contrast with a scene that maybe seems “out of place” can be a very powerful technique...

Okay, at this point everyone who’s asked for a standard companion should have one. Custom companions will need to wait a few days for me to get back to my main computer to handle, but I’ve got them all marked down.

Sounds kinda like what me and Astrid saw when we poked that Blacklight mewtwo guy. I was gonna ask Diyem if it rang any bells, but I guess the guy is too busy petting his deer for low-level shit like that these days.

Since it looks like Chip's still got work to do, Nate will visit Silver and Giovanni in the holding cells to see how they're doing. He'll bring cards in case either of them would like to play a bit to pass the time, and treats for Silver's pokémon.

"That's good!" Rocky said. "Maybe you can ask him to watch Cola sometimes for you, if they like each other. Which I figure they will, since everybody likes Red, and I'm pretty sure he likes every pokémon there is. He might be a good person to take Cola out and show him the world, since he's...

@kintsugi @Pen Thanks for sharing these! Looks like you two managed to put things together pretty well. And congrats on being the first to uncover oops-all-doctors! (Namo was just a doctor who didn't need a second doctor around to kill people!)

I appreciate this priceless work of art. Thank you for sharing it! But you can't post like this and not share what your predictions were. ;)

And some end-of-game notes: When designing this game, I had two primary considerations. The first of these is speed. My ideal for a game is that it last five to six day phases--I think this gives enough room for interesting play and day discussion, without allowing the game to drag on for...

At the end of the last day, cries to oust Mewtwo had been building. But as a new day dawns, those calling for his removal find themselves in the minority. Tefiren, in particular, thinks he's cracked the code--found the mafia, unraveled the whole game! He turns on Braixen instead, the fire-type...

"Great!" Rocky said. "I can go right away. There was just one more thing. Has Cola met Red?"

"Oh! I meant with my badge!" Rocky said brightly. "Since I know where Cola's staying right now. I figured I'd go tell him you wanted to talk to him, and then call you on my badge and give it to him."

"Oh, if he won't tell you, that is hard," Rocky said. "I think I have some ideas, but... I don't know. If he won't tell you, and he's too scared to want to be near you, it would be hard. I know he doesn't like being in the tower much. I think he'd like it if you showed him some of the...

Oh. Well. That wasn't a very funny answer. "I noticed you weren't doing your funny voice anymore," Rocky said. "I miss it." He thought for a little while. "I guess I understand why you want to recombine with Cola so bad, then. It would be scary to feel like you were getting old and missing out...

That did sound kind of complicated. Being a god was probably tough. "I think maybe I get it, a little," Rocky said. "But if splitting Cola off from yourself was like taking one of the ingredients out of a cake, which ingredient was it?" He considered for a moment before smiling faintly, his tail...

"Well, if you don't really know yet, I guess that's okay," Rocky said. "You should have time to figure it out." Unless something happened to Cola beforehand. "I don't get it, though. Didn't you make a whole other one of you? When you made the other Cibus? And the other Pop's just as powerful...

(( It's understandable to be frustrated when another player(s) isn't engaging with your arguments in the way you'd like, but please try not to post in anger. The tone here is a little more aggro than I'd like to see for a game. ))

Rocky nodded slowly. "That's good. I don't want to make Joule hurt if I'm not with him. And I don't want you to feel bad because Cola isn't part of you, either." He rubbed the back of his neck. "I know Cola wasn't supposed to happen like this. I mean, he was supposed to replace you, right? You...

Nate's going to visit Chip and see if he's made any progress on power suppresors for Lunala and Mewtwo. He'll also check on BLM2 while he's there. Assuming there's no change in BLM2's condition, Nate will stay a while and relate general lightweight gossipy things to BLM2--cool battles he saw...

"Oh, a decade's pretty long," Rocky said. "Really long! I don't think I can even imagine what it would be like to live that long. I don't know if Cola will think it's long enough, but it's probably a good place to start. At least it's a lot more time than a couple weeks." Rocky shifted...
