9th [Action]

[ So Salvation has come and gone, she's had her time with her sister, things have moved on - but Melaka, who has gotten in the habit of checking Union's TM slot now and again after she realized that as a Ranger / as a trainer she gets free access to it... found a new one she didn't recognize there. She taught it to one of hers (specifically, she taught it to her creepy Drowzee, Guide) and she went around experimenting with this new Secret Power. And lo and behold, as she did, she found that it could make pocket spaces in rocks. And trees.

Secret Bases.

Not sure what to make of this, Melaka now is going around the city seeing if she can figure out the rules for it (it does seem she can only make one at a time) and seeing if she can find some one with a particularly cool interior. But the result is that Melaka and an collection of Pokémon (her old tried and true Toxicroak, Lurks, as well as a somewhat anxious looking Druddigon and the ever floating Guide) are testing out new locations!

Is it in this tree next to your house? This rock on the corner? She'll try out of the city eventually too, but for right now, this is kind of fun. So if you saw her appearing into a hole in a tree or something after the Drowzee's eyes flashed, that's why.

Have at ]

Pokemon sure are amazing.

There's no way to explain something like this, is there? I mean... what sort of science is involved to make something bigger on the inside than the outside?

[pocket dimensions?]

Are you planning to stay here now then? I wonder if it would be warm...

Well... It's probably not a bad place if you're ever in need of emergency medical attention.

[Practicality.]

I'll have to see if I can find that TM... It's like having your own secret clubhouse anywhere you'd like!

[...Apartments are so boring though.

Secret clubhouse secret clubhouse!

Lucas will just cough a bit and distract himself from the possibilities (somewhere his grandfather can't find him?)]


So what kind of place do you think you're looking for in particular? I could help you look for a nice tree if you'd like.

Hm...

[Making a giant hole in the Valkyries' treehouse is probably going to be frowned upon.]

There are some bigger trees out in the forest if you don't mind being out away from Union.

Ooh, right! Or maybe somewhere close to a place where you like to visit a lot so you have somewhere to go to if you need a rest.

[Though it may be hard to drag furniture there...]

I wonder how safe these places are? Can wild Pokemon get in when you're inside?
a_gentle_boy: (Thoughtful)

[personal profile] a_gentle_boy 2015-02-06 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
...I can go and stand outside, I guess.

[And being the polite and gracious person he is, Lucas will boot himself out of Melaka's Secret Base.]

[the answer to this very important question is:

And try as he might, Lucas finds himself facing nothing but a normal tree with nothing terribly interesting about it. After a walk around, he even half-forgets where the hole was in the first place.]


Er.

[Unless, of course, someone wants to do a thread with invading Pokemon in which case it is fine.]
a_gentle_boy: (Surprise)

[personal profile] a_gentle_boy 2015-02-10 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Ah!

[Of course, he had been expecting it, but it's still very strange to see a floating head sticking out of a tree.]

...It works. Blocking off the entrance. It probably wouldn't be very useful otherwise, what with wild Pokemon moving in.
a_gentle_boy: (Thoughtful)

[personal profile] a_gentle_boy 2015-02-15 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
[So long as her Pokemon is intent on keeping it closed, Lucas won't see much of anything. Melaka might, though, given that it's hers.]

Mm....

Not really.

[personal profile] a_gentle_boy 2015-02-16 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Lucas will peek in curiously again but decline to step back inside, given that he's already seen everything he needs to.]

We could definitely do a lot with these... There are enough of us in the city that we could create outposts all over the field, after all. I'm going to go find this TM as soon as I can.
a_gentle_boy: (Conversation)

[personal profile] a_gentle_boy 2015-02-17 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
Then I'll go and see! I have a spare few moments still...

[Lucas is already thinking of which of his Pokemon should learn the move.]

Thanks for showing me, Miss Melaka! Let me know if you find a good place!
