Hi. Does anyone know how people make perfumes? Or the sticks that you burn and they give off smells.

And... I want to know about plants and medicines too! So if anyone knows just send me a message, okay? I don't want to know everything, just one or two things. Thanks.

[ AND THEN LATER ON IN THE DAY- ]

Hi, can I meet with someone who can make a ball of water without it touching anything? I want to try an attack on it, so - if you don't care about water exploding and you have a free hour sometime, let me know! Thanks!

[ Action ]

[ For the day (or even a few days before or after), Red can be found in a few number of places. First are trips into the bakery, grocery shop, convenience store -- heck, he'll visit all of the coffee/tea/restaurants/places that look like they serve food in them (oh, maybe he'll get a glimpse of that beautiful lady today...!). He shall also be carrying Very Big Bags that food is going in. After that - or somewhere in all of that, whenever the place opens - is a visit to the flower shop, the boy look at the flowers with his pikachu on his shoulder but really, he's waiting to see someone who runs it!

After that and grabbing a quick bite to eat is a visit to the Willow Tree, and then a visit to the Farmlands to see if there's anything to be done and to check in on Luke Skywalker's bantha Hamal. Doesn't matter if you're back to seeing him Luke, Red and him are bros. Red's pokémon Venusaur is out as always around this time (and everyone else, though those guys are eating), at a section of the ground with her multiple vines on the ground. Her flower is glowing softly, and the ground around her is actually poking out with small dots of green... is that grass? And do the plants in front of her look more grown?

Later on comes his training with a few people, as well as going to the Battle Dome when a room's available. Except there the trainer isn't always going to be inside, instead watching over them from the viewable pane on the second floor. (Hey is that Vegeta?? THAT GUY...) But there will be times when he's in there as well. Hey man who knows.

Considering the type of training they've been undertaking though, Red's not going to be at the battle dome the whole day -- his pokémon will need the rest. They'll take a walk into the forest, whether joined at whatever moment by Snorlax and Venusaur (Pikachu is an always, though the little mouse may be up in the trees at the time), sometimes stopping so that they can just chill. Red might be taking advantage of that whole just relaxing thang, but he may be testing out some tricks with the spells he's learnt. One of those will be creating a ball of light and then chucking it, bouncing it to go far - and then making it go in a flash of light at his command. What a nice waste of time.

And let's just throw in some other options too! Maybe they're on this day or a day before. Screw the rules of time. Training is an important thing for the trainer, and Red likes to make use of the open land once people get out of the forest towards the mountains. Nice and spacious, though sometimes he makes use of the teleporter to the hot springs to test the mountain ground as well.

Because they want to make some earthquakes, though trying to be mindful of other people around. With their training these days focusing more and more on how one uses their energy to cause bigger damage, getting it to do more than just shake the ground is worth testing out, and there's a different between the dirty earth and the rocky stone of the mountains...

(Gonna try hopping off if they hear anything suspicious approaching though! Yeah buddy we're talking about you. You know who you are.)

And then some days there's a visit to the beach. Big bird Lugia, are you going to be helping with that sometimes? Or at least a ride back to the village? Thanks bro. Because they've been having test matches against each other, Red's three pokémon against such an astounding legendary of the sea. And when they're not fighting? It's chilling on the beach together, Red with his journal out to read to the oversized seagull.

Or a Snorlax might be punching the water. Or kicking it. The sand too. Who even likes sand. ]

[Xzana was resting under a tree in the forest. Her stomach full of food that she was relaxing and digesting. She was bad about looking at her journal so she did not see Red's request for someone who could make balls of water without touching it. There would have been a good chance she wouldn't have answered even if she had.

A small puddle nearby she was currently entertaining herself with. Picking the water up with her powers. Slowly twisting it this way and that. Lazily making shapes as she enjoys having a full tummy. She's not really expecting anyone to come past here right now. Which makes it a perfect time for her quiet time to be interrupted!]

[ Quiet time? Who ever needs quiet peaceful time?? With Xzana being quiet herself, that leaves the sound of some far away animals and, as soft or small as it might be, the more nearer sounds of the water she churns with whatever sorcery she's using. It catches Pikachu's ears and makes the mouse lean out his head and flicker his ears, though he doesn't know if there's coming up to a lake, but - no, he can't smell a bed of water. Can't be that. Huh.

There's a small ball of light that Red had been messing with still hovering over his palm, but he thinks twice about throwing it carelessly. Could just be a wild animal, right? But the two try to step quietly as they look for the source, peeeeking a head (and Red keeping the ball behind the tree). Red can only be as silent as he knows to be, and so the ground under him still makes noise under his shoes, if Xzana's listening at all. ]

[Even though she's relaxing and not listening for prey or something to hunt, Xzana is still a creature who grew her entire life in the wild. She learned that if a creature fully let it's guard down then it would not live long.

Her head snaps towards the sound of ground moving under a foot. The water she was playing with dashing towards her hand. She holds it as if it was a tangible ball and ready to throw it if needed.

A quick inhale through her nose and peering at the boy in the bushes she relaxes slightly. Just a human.

Xzana stands. Wearing a dirty yellow halter top and a ripped brown skirt. Her arms, legs, and facial features slightly longer than one would expect on a human. Of course, her second set of large white wings, blue scales that cover her body, dark claws, and sharp fangs should have given away that she is not human.]

There is no need to hide. If you mean no harm boy, this one shall not harm you.

[ With his head already peeking, he was just coming to see the oddly - or oddly for a human - features visible on Xzana's body. The blue, at least, was something that attracted Red's attention for the few seconds before she spoke up.

He comes out from behind the tree, stepping forward with a hand going up to Pikachu. ]

Sorry, we weren't going to do anything. We were just being careful. [ There's a small pause ] We're just looking for a good place to do some training, that's all.

[Her voice is rough and gravely. As if it was a voice that was not meant for speaking and has had little use. Her speech matches this as she speaks her words slowly and carefully. As she picks out each word she speaks one by one. Checking it in her mind that she's hopefully using the right word before speaking it.]

Train? The forest has many ways to train. There are many creatures to hunt. There are trees to climb. And water with which to swim.

[ It's a voice that stands out for how strange it is, doesn't it. Red does wonder if there's something wrong with it as she speaks, though... that would be a little odd to just ask about, right.. ]

None of those... ...but I should probably learn to climb a tree better. [ Well, you know, since she mentioned it. He shakes his head slightly. ] But no, I've got a pokémon--erm, I've got a monster friend with me, and she's been learning to manipulate how to grow things? Things like plants. So we wanted to see if she could do it out here.

[ He kneels down to the ground as he speaks, putting a hand near to some tiny buds of green and a few wild mushrooms near around the tree he's spotted. But he looks back to the woman after. He does want to ask her about what she was doing earlier, but he'll wait to see if she wants to say anything to him...! ]

A pokémon? [Her face lights up slightly. She's met Lance's pokémon before so for now she thinks they're all dragons.] Is she here? This one would like to see her.

Oh, sure- [ he reaches down to his waist, taking off from his belt a red and white ball. ] Let me bring her out now.

[ And in the next moment he aims the ball to the open ground beside him, a light beaming out and forming to bring to them a large, green monster with a matching in size flower that begins to give off a scent scent following her arrival.

Red stands up, Pikachu jumping onto the ground next to her to squeak a few things. ] This is Venusaur. Do you know anything about pokémon?

[She jumps at the sudden light. Having never seen a pokemon released from a ball before. Then she just looks disappointed. That is not a dragon.]

It is not a dragon.

[Because clearly, Red does not know this fact.]

Edited 2014-09-09 22:53 (UTC)

No? [ UHHHH... ] She's a grass and poison type. I don't have a dragon type.

...Do you think pokémon are dragons? [ ??? ]

Are they not? This one met a pokemon by the name of Dragonite.

Dragonite? [ She might have a weird way of speaking and think all pokémon are dragons, but that instantly makes him think of a certain someone. ] Did you meet Lance?

[Lance. Lance. Lance. Lance. That's not the name of a dragon. Why should she care?

OH WAIT! The human thing with the awesome and amazing Dragonite.]

Indeed. This one has met Lance. The man was with Dragonite.

[ There we go! ]

Right! He's the trainer from my world. He's a dragon trainer, so all his pokémon are dragon types - or like dragons.

[ Because surprisingly enough, it's the blue bird that's a dragon type before the orange lizard. Red points a hand to Pikachu, and then down to Venusaur. ]

But these two are pokémon too. Not all pokémon are dragons, see? It's like.... a word for all animals in our world. [ a pause ] I think Lance is the only person with dragon pokémon here in Luceti.

[ Does Ash count with Charizard???? uhhhh ]

[She wrinkles her nose in disgust. The idea of a human training a dragon is laughable in her mind.]

Trainer? Are the lessons in human words? A dragon need no other training from a human.

No? It's not like a classroom. [ He does notice the expression, but- ] It's more like... we work together and figure out different ways of battle -- if that's the kind of trainer you are. There's all different types of trainers in the world.

[ Though, since she seems to know about dragons... ]

What are dragons like in your world?

Dragons are fierce fighters and need no help from humans. In the world that I am from many humans live in fear of dragons. We do not fear humans for they are weak. Our bounds with the elements are stronger than the humans.

[ She does have those odd - as in not-human - features about her... ]

So... are you what a dragon looks like from your world?

No. I am one who has had their blood mixed. My mother is one of pure blood. My father has the blood of the water nymphs. [At least, as far as she knows and has been told.] I am of both. [She says that without shame. She is what she is and that is all that matters in the end.] My mother does not look as I do in this form nor does she look the same as Dragonite.

So you're mother is a dragon... and then your dad is a water nymph? [ If he's following right. ] So you look more like your dad?

I do not know. I have not looked upon the face of the one who is my father.

Ohhh.. [ Well... there's nothing for him to say anything there. He's silent a few seconds. ]

Well, in my world... dragons are really strong. All pokémon are stronger than people, kinda, we can't do any of the elemental stuff that pokémon can do. But dragons -- they're a whole type of their own, and I've only seen a dragon pokémon once before I met Lance here. [ And it got away from him... ]

But even if pokémon can be stronger than people, we can still help each other out -- in my world at least. But not all pokémon need a trainer either. [ He makes a sound, his brows knitting slightly. ] It's really complicated.

[At first she looks a bit bored and unimpressed. Of course dragons are stronger than humans. There would be no way they'd be weaker in any universe, but then the next thing he says makes her pause.]

No human can commune with the elements? How can that be? [Sure not every human could control an element, but there were enough that it was common.]

[ Oh. ]

Umm... it's not a thing in our world? [ let's think ] Is communing with elements like summoning fire or water and those kind of things?

Yes. It is a connection. [Her eyes dart back towards the water she had been playing with earlier. It rising up to form into a quivering ball in her hand.] Between the element and the being of a creature. It is something that makes a creature whole. [Slowly the ball sinks into her skin until it is completely evaporated into it as she attempts to show her point as well.] As one.
