Late August/September Test Drive! THE SECOND




After the Dynamax Raid Battle, the Islands are Busier than Ever. There's more things to do, School is beginning, and people are starting to work into fall. The Music Festival is upon them in a few days, and there is a Harvest Festival in the early part of September, there is much to do and prepare for. But there is many things to do, with the Pokemon School opening up. And there is much for you Fallers to prepare for, as a new wave of Fallers arrive on the islands!


A. Arrival

Another wave of Ultra Holes have opened up over the Island, alarms have appeared and the Ultra Guardians as well as Bewear has come into play. This time, the Fallers have been asked to intercept the literally Falling people who are coming out of the holes and brief them and bring them to the Pokemon Center, ie Immigration to get checked in. Wicke is there to answer questions but a few volunteers may be there as well. The experienced Fallers can get you up to speed.


B. The Alola Community Visitors Plaza

A venue usually for tourists, new Fallers are given a chance to see the main tourist area for Alola, in order to orient and familiarize themselves with the nature of Alola and Pokemon in general. A far cry from the disorganized mob that was originally there, this time, there are people set up in the stands, ready to receive tourists and Fallers alike. Pamphlets, interviews with locals and tour guides, Ride Pokemon to take you around the island, and various other places are available. Please look around, the choice is yours.


C. The Hau’oli City Markets

This is where the marketplace stands, full of fresh fruit and food. Those who are hungry can be treated to a delicious taste of Alola. Not once, not twice, but more times than they can imagine. Your coin is good here, even if it’s alien in nature. Even if you don’t have coin, you’ll be fine. Ohana. No one is left behind or forgotten. We’re not about to let people go hungry in this world. Nature’s bounty is for everyone, humans and Pokemon alike. There’s no need to steal, just ask the marketplace for some food if you are very hungry. Even if you’re shy, Miss Anela will offer you a snack.


D. Job Board

Odd Jobs have been posted here right now, thanks to the efforts of the people who have decided to help the Fallers out, and it’s also a help wanted board for those who want to earn some coin in the middle of the week before the beginning of the school year. Tasks such as bucking crates of Juice off a truck, to doing some simple paperwork in an office for a few days, and even tending Pokemon in a farm on Akala Island. The choice is yours. Get out and explore.


E. Exploring Melemele

If you wish to explore Melemele, it is a big island, and there is plenty to see. There are Forests, Honey Fields, Hot Springs, Beaches, and many other places. Melemele boasts one of the biggest cities Hau’oli City, and is the capital of Alola. Here, up at the top of a large plateau is the challenge area where Hala offers the Grand Trial. The caves are full of Pokemon, and your Pokemon are eager to prove themselves in a Trial.


F. Pokemon School

The Pokemon School has begun to open its doors, and the school is opened up officially. Early enrollment has begun, and you can prepare to start studying. Also, Professor Burnet may be looking for people to start assisting in the research for Pokemon. This time, Enrollment has begun and you may enter your name, age, and grade and tour the school. Students such as Mallow, Lana, Kiawe and others are here to give you a tour of the school, and the Adult Learning Classes are upon us as well. Researchers from all over the world are coming to set up base in the Pokemon School as well, to study the Ultra Hole Phenomenons.


G. Harvest Festival Preparations

The fields of Melemele, Akala Island, Ula'Ula and Poni are bursting with produce and it's in need of help this year. Succulent fruits, delicious vegetables, spicy radishes, all of it is in need of harvest. The Kahunas ask for your aid in picking the fruits, and helping out with your Pokemon and help. There is several things to do this year, and much to do it in, with the blessings of the festival to be held on Poni Island this year.


H. The Music Festival

Musicians from all over the world are coming to Ula'ula in order to play music, and you're invited! You can play music, watch the people enjoy the sights, it's a wonderful festival for all. This week-long festival lasts for a good solid while, and there's various musicians from all over the world coming to this place. Please, soak in the musical styling of all of the international musical bands of the world.

Daichi Izayoi | OC, Vampire: The Masquerade-verse

[lullabile]

[ARRIVAL - HELLO FROM 2009]

So what do you call a vampire plummeting toward the ocean at mach speed under the light of the moon?

Well, his name, one would hope. This one's name is Daichi and he is terrified.

He doesn't scream, to his own surprise, as he suddenly shifts from NewYorkApartment to AlolaSky in the blink of an eye for zero discernible reason. He doesn't scream when, in lieu of sticking a nasty landing in some salty water, he's effortlessly nabbed from the air by a very large bear also moving at mach speed. He doesn't scream when he's delivered rather unceremoniously to shore where people seem to be expecting him. Or, well, not him specifically but someone like him.

Nah, it comes later, when the fuss has died down a little and he's been briefed about his situation (which is largely him Thinking he understands things but not Quite and maybe he's been playing a little too much Pokémon Platinum, that has to be it). It's when he's sitting outside of the Hau'oli Pokécentre staring up at the moon, marvelling at the clearness of this foreign sky, and even then it's not really a proper scream. It's a sudden choke, a sniffle, a shiver of anticipation gone unfulfilled as he realises the quiet is not because it's so peaceful but because he's suddenly alone.

Even if he's perpetually with some company, there's still a crushing loneliness with the absence of his other companions.


[THE MUSIC FESTIVAL - NIGHTTIME ROMP]

There's predictably been some urging by some of the locals for Daichi to get out. No thanks, he'd rather sleep while the Imminent Glowing Death Orb remains in the sky.

But that's fine, because some of the festivities naturally stretch into the evening. Music festivals in his world tend to go on into the night, anyway, so he's not super surprised that there's plenty of nighttime activity when he wakes up just after sunset. It's pretty refreshing; he was never one to get out much largely because he just... didn't know what to do.

He doesn't do much at first, simply strolling around the festival grounds to familiarise himself with the location and soak in the sounds. It's admittedly a little overwhelming with his enhanced vampire senses, but just as a regular human eventually adjusts to a concert atmosphere, so too does he fall into the swing of things eventually.

Perhaps he falls a little too into it, as he bumps into a passerby along the street - it's you! Find yourself faced with a 6'5" twig of a man folding his hands tensely as he bows lightly, sheepishly, in apology. "Ah, I'm sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going... Are you alright?"



[WILDCARD: send me something completely different if you want! go nuts! it's free real estate babey!! he won't willingly go out in the daytime since i'm still playing him like a vampire, but as long as he stays inside and away from the windows you're honestly good to go!

"dan did you post this delete it and repost it after changing One Line" yes because my brain doesn't work]

arrival i am S orry

Someone feels bad.

Someone feels...REAL BAD.

Reira can't help but notice that kind of level of bad, especially with how sharp and painful and sad the feelings are.

So, there's a small child creeping over slowly, moving two steps, sitting down, waiting, moving two steps again, sitting down again, glancing over and waiting...

....

That's not subtle!!!
