    Pokémon Nori Carino: Abyssal Despair
    Threadmarks: Chapter 29: Sealed Fates

    Pachi was running at Nori’s side as he skateboarded to school. The Pokemon Rehabilitator wasn’t sure what to do after the disaster yesterday. He had told Qwilfish what was going to happen, he had apologized profusely to her, but she barely reacted to any of what he had to say. That didn’t feel...

    Prema dragged herself along the trail behind the Kannagi Shrine. The heir to the shrine supposed it really was her spot in a manner of speaking. No one except herself made use of it. She often came by to clear her mind while getting some fresh air and quiet. The dilemma before her had been...

    Ah, feeding time. It is always an occasion to look forward to. My favorite is, of course, plants for their taste and the nutrition. But there is something about meat that I love. I wonder what the souls of these animals and Pokemon think of humanity mashing their bodies into fine material...

    Sure. Just watch out for anything you'd expect to see in a place like this. Blood, horror, grimness, and all that. [/spoiler]

    The news about the big battle planned for Friday afternoon reached Chad through Mia right before their morning class was about to start; she had heard about it from Angel, who was telling anyone he could. The captain of the battling team almost jumped out of his chair and went to find Emi right...

    Tuesday evening turned out to be uneventful as far as making progress with Qwilfish was concerned. Nori was able to feed his assignment at home without much incident, thanks to some residual puddles in the area. The good news was that nothing happened to screw things up even worse than they...

    As Nori left school and walked out into the brisk autumn air on Tuesday, he spotted a somewhat weighty teenager waiting for him outside. He narrowed his eyes at the orange-haired girl before walking off towards the fields. He caught her getting up out of the corner of his eye. There wasn’t even...

    Mornings at the Kannagi Shrine were fairly routine, a fact that did not change after they opened the branch shrine in Veilstone City. The residents who woke up the earliest would tend to the gardens and do any cleaning before visitors arrived. Those who worked but did not live there arrived and...

    There was a lightness in Nori’s step on Tuesday morning. Besides changing his approach, Lux’s letter had reminded him of something important. He didn’t have to impress people or make them like him, just do what he wanted and needed! Lux was a great example of that, actually. He could’ve been...

    Yumi took her time getting to the clubroom at lunchtime on Tuesday. She wanted to make sure that everyone else had arrived by the time she did. She strode down the hall with intent, her eyebrows furrowed and gaze focused. When she opened the door to the small computer lab, there was only one...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 20: Strong Desire

    Nori had been expecting something of a tepid if not a chilly reception in class following what happened at lunch, so it was something of a relief when there was nothing significant. The extent of things was a few whispers between friends discussing the situation, and otherwise there was not so...

    Errant Sword [KtK RP Thread; Mission 1]

    "Used to be?" Nori queries, shrinking back defensively. He assumed this guy was a human once, so who or what did that to him?! Come to think of it though, weren't there rumors about someone who used to be a Pokemon? Probably just unfounded rumors in his case, but... Other than that, he idles...

    Nori waves goodbye to the cavewoman and her weird Cyclizar thing as they depart. "So we'll just beat'em both!" Nori declares with a clap of his hands. It was that simple, the way he saw it! And maybe he has a point. Didn't he overhear him mumbling something about this? Either way, Nori...

    Retrospective - KTK RP

    Three is fine. It was set up so yeah, whoever jumps in and starts the cycle first gets to do it, everyone else got left out. In that case, Mighyena and friends. Like I mentioned OoC though, it fit Nori so I didn't mind much, but I imagine others might've gotten annoyed. Oh definitely. There...

    Retrospective - KTK RP

    - Pace was okay. Nothing was too slow. Though the one day time limits in the battle led to some late nights, probably worth a mention even if I could pull it off. Definitely worked on others however, which is a good thing. Intended length, yeah, it needed more, but it ended up 3 which didn't...

    "But what about him?" Nori asks, gesturing to the cloak-wearing Latios. Hey, now that he thought about it, what was up with the kanji on the back? "What if...um." He rubs the back of his head. "Well. They're not usually considered Legendary in my world. But I guess they are here, and he was one...

    Being in a capsule was annoying. It was artificial. Too comforting. Not what she liked. She did not know how that rodent or even that epafasu functioned. She tolerated it by circumstance. Carino made a point. Too many manhs were uncomfortable around her. Not that she cared. If he got a bigger...

    “Oh, thank you!” Pachi says, graciously accepting. He strikes a pose. “Stylish! I feel like a Contest star!” Nori puts his hands on his hips. “Thought it was either that or them disapproving and 'betraying' you,” he remarks. “Jeez, how did whatever did this get to all of you? There has to be...
