Spring Fling

For those who fear the encroaching flowers herald events of a slightly more urgent nature, perhaps it isn't really paranoia so much as sensibility.

Two days after they first appear, every single flower in Union blooms overnight. The sight is incredible - the entire city is blanketed in rainbow waves of color, and the scent of the flowers themselves is quite fragrant. The strange pink blossoms are particularly attractive.

For many of the residents of Union, however, the flowers may not be the first thing on their minds as things go a bit chaotic.

1. Enlightened with a Bug, Fairy, or Grass typing will become subject to extreme emotion swings. Primarily, the emotions will be positive, like overwhelming ecstasy, a sensation of giddiness, and a desire to spread cheer amongst their friends. These Enlightened may also suffer from confusion, an excessive amount of energy, and general loopiness. When not in sunlight, they'll swing towards the negative end of the emotional spectrum.

2. Bug, Grass, and Fairy type Pokémon have taken it upon themselves to settle into this new paradise, with the Bug types descending in swarms from above, and the Grass and Fairy types wandering in through the gates whenever the guards aren't looking. Though not violent, they'll be generally insensitive to the trouble they cause for the humans and will react negatively to anyone or anything harming the flowers.

3. Other strange Pokémon have also wandered into Union and while most appreciate the gentle sunlight, a few of the more mischievous have decided that the city could use some more variety. Each individual Castform may alter the weather between sun, rain, and hail within a certain area of the city ranging about two blocks. If Castform is creating Rain or Hail, Fairy, Bug, and Grass Enlightened will respond in a negative manner.

4. Allergies will be more fun to deal with than ever.

5. Finally, the following event Pokémon will be temporarily available to be bonded with as an extra bonus for this week. Please respond in the Map and Wild Pokemon post as per the usual to claim these. The level range is 5-8.

Castform
Petilil
Cherubi
Combee
Venonat
Flabébé
Jigglypuff

This event will end on April 13th. You may use this post as an IC mingle or make your own entries as you wish. If your character is a Fairy/Bug/Grass Enlightened and you prefer not to play the effects, you may opt-out.

Sewa!

[ Now Sewaddle is a bug on a Mission. (He will even adopt a studious face when looking over all the leaves and flowers, the way he sees his human do sometimes.) Climbing up into a viny trellis, he begins tossing flowers down onto Floette. Hold these for him, will you? He must gather supplies. ]
kaidont: (Er...)

[personal profile] kaidont 2014-04-16 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oof! Floette is kind of tiny, so the flowers are big for her, but she'll catch them as well as she can]

[Mary can't help but laugh, a little tickled by the Venonat's attempts to hide before she turns her attention to the Oddish.]

It's okay Oddish, you can join too if you want! [Uh...sure, Mary, but it'll be quite a feat to move once you've got both of us under there. ^^;;]

Well, now we're together ... so I guess going and getting lost won't be as bad?

... Something tells me I should still be worried, though.

[ It was meant to be a joke, but it wasn't a very good one. ]

[ Oh, wow, spinning! It was fun, but it was also something that left her pretty dizzy afterwards, especially seeing as she had allergies up the wazoo and her head was already feeling fuzzy.

When she does manage to break away from the spinning, she stumbles a bit and puts a hand to her head. Stop the world, she wants to get off. ]

Are you still worried I'll get lost if I'm on my own for too long? Not that I'll reject company ...

[ Especially if it's you. You're pretty chill, yo. ]

But yeah, let's go somewhere with a little less pollen, if we can find one.
ourlegends: (υнн ...)

[personal profile] ourlegends 2014-04-16 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Figure out what? Like why this all appeared all of a sudden?

[ She sniffles. Breathing is hard right now. ]
ourlegends: (ωнιмѕι¢αℓ)

[personal profile] ourlegends 2014-04-16 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
It's just allergies, this always happens when the pollen count gets high ... I'm just going to feel like crap regardless of what I do today.

[ She tried to smile in reassurance. ]

No worries, I can still help!

[ Wow that last tag was a mess. ]

Maybe a bit, but I know that was a while ago. But it was my suggestion, and I'd love some company while I'm out today.

Have you ever been around the mountains? It gets windy further up, but there's some nice sights around the lower parts if you don't want to go too far up today.

That's the kind of thing I'c call wisdom. The only ranger I ever met who was as wise or as good as he was about the job was my own dad.
withcourage: (Waitwaitwait!)

[personal profile] withcourage 2014-04-16 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, so long as he doesn't forget food again.

[Aster's cheeks color slightly.]

H-hey! I'm not that bad, guys! I'm sure we'd be fine! I mean, even if I did forget the food, I'm sure Hilda won't forget...

[He does at least realize it is a joke on the other trainer's part.]

[He raises an eyebrow, watching with careful and quiet amusement. She hardy and determined, but sometimes when your health is at risk (or at least on your nerves), you need to take it easy.]

If you say so. [He shakes his head, thinking about home. The sea salt in the air at Destiny was so fresh, he almost never suffered from allergies.] I'd say that heading to some open area might help, but if this is pollen based, it might not be the best.

Trying to tough it out, then?

[ The Venonat continues to snuggle down comfortably, even if it can't completely fit under the skirt. Moving a bit in order to include the Oddish It was certainly enjoying itself, even if it wasn't nighttime and it was tired. These were nice friends after all, maybe it could take a nice nap with them! ]

Venonat! ( It's nap time! )

[Congratulations! Venonat has decided to nap and join you! It's level 8 and the rest of its stats are up to you! ]
niepokonany: (+If you can't do something smart)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-04-17 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Right? C'mon, let's go!

[To ADVENTURE! Or to pester pedestrians, whichever.]
niepokonany: (I'm flying high defying gravity)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-04-17 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
[He sort of bounces his way over, sparkling, and picks a couple of the flowers.]

I love them! They're perfect. Here!

[And he moves to put one behind her ear.]
niepokonany: (Because I want it all)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-04-17 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. Okay, like, flowers, bug type...

[He runs around for a few moments, then grabs a rather startled-looking Venonat from a nearby bush.]

Is this him?
niepokonany: (The living legend needs eggs!)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-04-17 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
[And Feliks keeps spinning for a second or two, giggling.]

See? Totally easy!
actsmagnificent: (shower)

[personal profile] actsmagnificent 2014-04-17 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yeesh, poor Venonat. Haruka shakes her head. ] He collects leaves. D'you want to check that side of the street?

[ For once she's not actively trying to get rid of an assistant: splitting up does make more sense if there's two people on the hunt. ]
actsmagnificent: (helmet)

[personal profile] actsmagnificent 2014-04-17 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
[ The flowers keep floating down from above like some sort of rainbow, well, rain. At last Sewaddle lets himself down on a long piece of silk (handy, that) and begins gathering up anything Floette missed. There are no hard feelings here, you've been a big help. ] Waddle wa!

[ Now, which to use to make you pretty? He might only be able to use a few petals, given your size.... ]
kaidont: (Default)

[personal profile] kaidont 2014-04-17 11:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, her own flower is red, so maybe blue? Then she'll be color coordinated!]
moemoetentacles: (All Fired Up)

[personal profile] moemoetentacles 2014-04-17 12:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Onward!

[DRAMATIC POINTING]
actsmagnificent: (dainty)

[personal profile] actsmagnificent 2014-04-17 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ That's a good point! Especially with that leaf he already gave you as an accent. Sewaddle silks up the required petals and gently sticks them to Floette. Let him know if it's hard to move in this; beauty should also be functional. ] Sewa sewa.
kaidont: (Heh)

[personal profile] kaidont 2014-04-17 02:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, she can still fly, which is what matters!

Hmm, maybe you could make a train with those petals too. Then it'd fly in the wind when she moves]
actsmagnificent: (happy)

[personal profile] actsmagnificent 2014-04-17 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ If that wouldn't be too heavy for flying, Sewaddle would be happy to oblige! ] Waddle sewa!

[ He begins alternating between petals and leaves as he builds the train. Somebuggy lives at the theater, and everything about their productions is unnecessarily fancy. ]
kaidont: (Heh)

[personal profile] kaidont 2014-04-17 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[There is no such thing as unnecessarily fancy. Floette would love to see the theater. Dragging her human there would be kind of complicated though.

... maybe she should ask Mari]
