hey! everybody else pissed off about those caves? good, cuz i'm calling for an emergency party. there needs to be some real fun around here after whatever the hell that was.

i'm still pretty new here, so suggestions on place? stuff to do??? really somebody else can handle organization, that sounds boring, i just wanted to put out the word.

party sounds good! we could do a park? that way everyone can invite water pokémon to help us cool down in an emergency.

Once a week? That's it?

lux come on!! i lived in the forest!!! alone!!!!! my whole life!!!!! why would i go through all the trouble of washing off in a river MORE than once a week

Health concerns for starters.

[nippy]

ok BUT: mage did not leave me a book about health & hygiene on the table for when i woke up. i just figured that when the amount of dirt had reached "too much" i should wash it off properly!

[ladyofluminosity]

And the smell was no sort of indicator? Did you keep a running tally of how many pokemon fainted when you walked by?

[nippy]

actually, great thing about being an ice-type: REALLY CLEAN ALL THE TIME. i only have to worry about whatever gets on me!

[nippy]

park is good! lucca just came in & suggested beach, which is NOT HAPPENING, but a park could be fun. not as boring as an indoors party + not going to actually kill me from heat.

[ How does that... She hadn't actually thought of that. Or was he pulling her leg? ]

That doesn't exempt you from normal bathing.

have you ever thought that maybe this is just a really weird social custom that you've all gotten used to & you should take a more natural approach to it

[imprudens]

indoor parties in summer? only if there's no way around it.
i mean, i guess we can't improvise fireworks. i could probably get us food, but depending on how many people show up, maybe everyone can bring something!

[ladyofluminosity]

You've never been on a dig with a group of delvers that insist that going for "a more natural approach" is good for them.

It's an unpleasant experience.

[nippy]

hmmm maybe not fireworks, but there might be a fairy type that could give us a lightshow. & is that how parties normally work? everybody brings stuff??

[ he's never actually been to a party. kids have talked to him about them, but most of those have been organized by adults. ]

idk why i didn't just drop this subject line in the first place but IT'S GOING NOW

[nippy]

the only group of anything i have been anywhere with is spinarak & i would not recommend that either.

[imprudens]

sometimes! there's the kind where one person hosts it and they have to take care of and organize everything. but that'd be way too much effort when we don't even know how many people are gonna be there.

[ladyofluminosity]

Do I want to know?

[ The answer is yes, yes she really does. ]

[nippy]

have you ever woken up in a spinarak nest?

[ladyofluminosity]

No.

[ Jack... ]

[nippy]

ok

it's bad & has happened to me more than once

[ladyofluminosity]

Now I'm REALLY concerned about your ability to take care of yourself.

[nippy]

LISTEN if you sleep in a tree every night for 3 years, sometimes you end up in nests. that's life!!!

[ladyofluminosity]

Then maybe you shouldn't be sleeping in trees.

[nippy]

good point! plus i don't want to do that & that means i'd have to find someone else who would, that's too much work.
are there party events we should have? i only know kids games.

[nippy]

sleeping on the ground would mean WAY more nests. and also, probably getting eaten by something?

[ladyofluminosity]

Well isn't it nice that you don't have to worry about that sort of thing now? You can sleep in a house, with a (hopefully) spinirak-free bed.

And take regular baths. I guarantee that your fellow coworkers will appreciate it so much more if you do.
