Week 4.

[trustharder]

WEEK 4 And as the third week in the Vault comes to a close and the fourth week begins, the Survivors are once again down by two. Mion Sonozaki died on her own terms, and Yato died fulfilling his duty as God of Fortune in the best way that he knew how; the shrine built in the game room on Saturday stands in their memory. Saturday is given to regrouping and sleep; there aren't any bodies to be found on Sunday morning. But that doesn't mean the night was uneventful - it seems something else may have brought you some newfound clarity. Or perhaps not... Once again, that spiral staircase leads farther than you remember, clear up to a previously inaccessible fourth floor. Go ahead and explore as much as you like; even if the Kingmaker sounded a bit unhappy with you last weekend, the fact remains that you're still doing what you seem to have been brought here to do.

[......... so it's like mettaton??

mettaton evolved??

mettaton is a pokemon.

Sigrun can never tell anyone he had three forms. Especially not the scientist.]

It looks like the inside of a clock.

[pokexplorer]

[OH DON'T WORRY, THEY ALREADY HAD THE AWKWARD EVOLUTION TALK...]

It certainly does, doesn't it? That has always been the most fascinating thing about mechanical Pokemon, too- no one truly created them, yet they just...are.

[captainobnoxious]

[JUST... DON'T EXPERIMENT ON HIM.]

How.

[pokexplorer]

[...

He will try not to.]

It is a mystery.

[No, really.]

[captainobnoxious]

[If he does, Sigrun will gladly stand on trial.

Unless Mettaton offered to let him do whatever. But so far, she is the only one allowed to touch the robot.]

Does it eat?

[pokexplorer]

[He at least has the tact to ask first. And he hasn't yet.]

It can feed on electricity, but for the most part, its energy comes from continuously rotating like that.

[captainobnoxious]

So if someone jams something into it it dies.

[............]


Do you think they'd be put on trial for it?

[pokexplorer]

[Augh, he knew he shouldn't have brought that up...]

You say that like it is an easy task. It can defend itself, you know.

As for a trial...I haven't a clue. That would be up to the Kingmaker, I suppose.

[...]

Please do not actually try to jam something into my Pokemon.

[captainobnoxious]

If I wouldn't jam it into bombshell, I wouldn't jam it into your friend here. He'd get mad at me.

[Mettaton would, that is.]

I think you should find a way to protect it though. Give it skin or something.

[pokexplorer]

Appreciated.

[He believes her, but he wishes she wouldn't have given that idea to the rest of the group...]

Despite how it may look, it is actually rather powerful. It is the very last stage in its evolutionary line. So as I said, it can defend itself.

...Besides, I have a very difficult time imagining it with skin.

[And even if he could, it would be pretty freaky.]

[captainobnoxious]

... Can I fight it?

[Sigrun.]

If it's strong enough to protect itself, then it's fine to spar, right? I won't kill it. We can use the hallway or clear out the dining hall, whatever's best for... you two, I guess.

[pokexplorer]

[SIGRUN...]

I would prefer to have it battle only when necessary, simply because I cannot properly heal it here unless I miraculously manage to find some Potions.

[Then again, he doubts Sigrun would do much to Klinklang since she's human. Which brings him to his second point:]

Also, fighting a Pokemon alone is extremely dangerous. There is a chance that you could get seriously hurt, even if I have Klinklang hold back.

[captainobnoxious]

[Boy.]

I fight worse things that actively want to kill me for a living. And I bounce back pretty quickly no matter how badly I've been hurt. You don't have to worry so much about me.

[pokexplorer]

You...have a point, I suppose.

[She does fight creatures of her own, apparently.

And he doubts she's ever going to let up, so...

With a sigh,]

Very well. But I would like to keep it brief. Klinklang needs to keep its strength up.

[captainobnoxious]

[!!!

SHE'S GONNA GET TO FIGHT A POKEMON. WHATEVER IT CAN DO.]

Sure! We'll play taps. If I get a hit on your buddy I win, and if it gets a hit on me you win. Deal?

[pokexplorer]

[He can't help but laugh at how excited Sigrun is over this.

...He might be a little excited too, but he won't admit that!!]

That is acceptable. Do you have a time that you want to do this?

[At least after the meeting, he assumes...]

[captainobnoxious]

I'd say right now, but I've gotta prepare. No warrior goes in without learning her area and enemy.

[She is more experienced than her personality may lead on, after all.]

I don't think anyone's got anything signed up for Thursday yet, so let's inspire everyone with a little playful bloodlust before one of us possibly dies. How's it sound?

[pokexplorer]

Oho, so you want to make this a public spectacle?

[It's like a real Pokemon battle, but with...a human involved...

Legit.]

Very well, Thursday it is. That will give me time to prepare with Klinklang as well. We still have a bit to catch up on.

[captainobnoxious]

[She's gonna get to fit Mettaton's missing link.]

I'm looking forward to taking you two on then. I'm pretty interested to see what this thing's got in store for a bunch of nuts and bolts.

[pokexplorer]

I believe you'll find the battle pleasantly surprising!

[...as pleasant as getting attacked by gears can get?]
