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.

[Aster notices this and blinks. He didn't mean to scare the poor thing! ...Did Braea do something to startle it? He wouldn't put it past her.]

Hey, wait a moment, little guy. I'm really sorry! I didn't mean to startle you.

[Aster looks pointedly up at the Purrloin who now was looking down from the tree.]

Braea, you should apologize, as well!

Why? It's not my fault that it's startled eas-

Braea...

[The Purrloin sighs.]

Ugh, fine. I'm sorry, too.

[Her apology doesn't sound very sincere.]

[That human...?] 'Y-You... you can talk?'

[It finds within the ends of the tress flush limbs. Sounding terrified but also extremely tired.]
withcourage: (Grinning like a dork)

[personal profile] withcourage 2014-04-09 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
[Aster flashes a grin and nods.]

Well, everything can talk--it's just a matter whether we understand each other or not! Either way, yes, I can understand you! Are you doing okay? As an apology, would you maybe like for me to find a place for you to rest in peace? I really didn't mean to disturb you, after all.

[... The Venonat waddles out after letting him finish, a nervous smile if humans are able to tell when bug-types are pleased.] 'S-sorry, I get really scared.. s-sure, I can't see all that well right now.. s-so that would be nice, i-if you don't mind..' [The tree it was using was competently disturbed now after all, they'll need to find a new one.]

Would you like for me to carry you? If you're tired, then at least you wouldn't have to walk or anything!

[Braea hops down from the tree and weaves in between the trainer's legs to stand on the opposite side of him from the Venonat.]

Let's think... I know a few remotes areas of town at this time of day that are nearby. Those might work. I'd even let you rest inside my home if you'd like, but I'd guess you probably wouldn't be comfortable with that. Hmm...

N-No.. thank you! I can walk.. [Letting a human carry them doesn't seem all that wise for the timid Venonat.]

W-We like hollow trees and dark places.. [It's eyes flutter in the sunlight.] Easier to see in the dark..
withcourage: (Seeya around!)

[Aster thinks for a few moments and nods to himself.]

All right, I think I know the perfect spot! This way!

[He starts off in the other direction with a cheerful smile on his face, waving for the pokemon to follow him. He would then head a few minute's walk away where there were more trees and less noise. There would be a few more shady places, too.]

[Wow.. hey, this is a pretty nice place.. Venonat didn't even realize a place like this was around.] 'Whow!

This spot is amazing!
' [TI seems not all humans are bad people.. this one seems really nice. The bug type looks back to the feline that still hovers around Aster..] 'A-are you.. a human that houses Pokemon?' [Still rather daunting that they can communicate in the first place.]
withcourage: (Curiosity killed the Aster)

[personal profile] withcourage 2014-04-11 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
[He chuckles.]

I thought you might like it!~ It's a place I've come before when I want a good, quiet place to sort through my notes.

[As the Venonat look over, Braea stares back, unblinking.]

Huh...I guess you could say that. I have a couple that live with me, but they're family to me. Any pokemon I'd ever have would be, I'd think.

[A thought occurs to him, but he doesn't want to push it.]

Is there a reason you ask, little guy?

[personal profile] bravenewhelpers 2014-04-12 09:50 am (UTC)(link)
..... [They seem to be thinking carefully over their next choice of words.] 'M-My brothers and sisters, we recently separated because we're getting older now..

B-but I- I've never been the strongest.
' [A family would be nice..]
withcourage: (Hehe!)

[personal profile] withcourage 2014-04-12 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Aster gives the Venonat a big smile.]

Well, if you'd like, you could stay with me. Not even all the time, but if you ever get lonely, I'd be willing to chat or whatever else you need! It doesn't matter to me how strong you are, after all. Everyone's how they are, and that's just how things go. I know that a lot of pokemon don't necessarily like being so close to humans, though, and I understand that if you don't want to, too.

[The Venonat doesn't need much more then that. This human is different, they can tell. Something is pure about their heart and the way they treat others, not just Pokemon. Unlike humans, Pokemon feel this natural..

Congratulations, you've bonded with a level 5 Venonat!]
