Procrastination is a very hard drug to kick out of your system.

I guess I'll try to actually make something, I didn't realise how much time had passed.
I mean, I had a laptop to work with, and there were times when I just went back to gaming on my weak-ass laptop (no more than an hour a week though). That's also not mentioning wasting all the free time I got by avoiding games on Reddit and YouTube.

As for the cleaning part, that was from watching all the crap pile up in my room and around the house. This morning I woke up with an incredibly sore right arm from all the brushing.

Anyway, I'm back... it is 2 am however, so a post is out of the question.
Oh boy, exams were over two days ago. Then I went on a cleaning spree.

Yeah I'll probably begin to try posting again by tomorrow, but I'm gonna need to warm up to using my PC again (literally have not touched it in over 8 weeks).
By the time the foul purple ash settled, we had finished the good fight. Reshiram stomped on through to breathe fire on anyone stupid enough to mess with us, taking out his anger of being stuck on the dungeon Pokemon. I'll admit the heat got me sweating, somehow. The fire only left the ice underneath a bit glazed though, reminding us we still had a big guy to take down at the end. For now, most of us were keen to wait around and recover a bit, the ambush having left a heavy toll on almost everyone involved.

I hovered over to Anthony and Josh, noticing a good amount of frost and white coating on Anthony's helmet. He certainly didn't look alive, yet still had enough strength to hold out a berry in his shivering arms/tentacles(?) "You know... it might have been a good idea for Reshiram to stay behind." A bit reserved, I spoke calmly towards the pair, though mainly addressing Anthony. "Assuming he isn't knocked out by something arbitrary or trapped again, he probably needs to save his strength for Kyreum." I kept my magnets close-by as I kept an eye on Reshiram, who appeared as though something out of a medieval tale to the fleeing ice Pokemon. No need to feel alarmed for now, seeing as we can probably breathe a bit, now that we had a Legendary in the same room as us. However, I could tell everyone was feeling a bit unnerved for the next fight, just another dark tunnel away into whatever awaits us, on the opposite side of the ice dome. Just thinking about it made my eye twitch.
Idk about you but I haven't the RP this alive in like a year now.
No doubt it was chilly in here but that wasn't going to stop us. As a steel Pokemon I've known nothing but cold and ice for the last day or so. Kamina raged and burned like a furnace unaware of the concept of ice, and it was really beginning to unnerve a bunch of the ice Pokemon. I swore one of them flinched as he swaggered and leapt with his tail on his back-

In hindsight, leaving might've been a bad idea. With that said, we could definitely handle things on our own, at least until Reshiram was bought out like the legend he was. Plus, Ice against steel? I could probably cover for them all, even I was a little smaller.

I had to act quickly though, almost witnessing a wake with Anthony narrowly edging away from an ice beam. Thank goodness these Pokemon couldn't hit a slug, let alone a floating Pokemon. That wasn't to say their aim was terribly off, in fact Anthony was ridiculously lucky. Scrunching my face and blinking hard, I swept around swiftly with unnatural speed, eyeing as many Glalie and Froslass as I could. They were scattered around with sometimes two-to-one Pokemon, the odd Kadabra particularly drawing attention with a mirage (or barrage, trying to remember that gives me a headache) of spoons. As Kamina scampered off to retrieve Reshiram's ass I tried to stick around as many of them as I could, wavering around in mid-air between very angry Pokemon, taking a few hits there and here but never knocking me out of my stride. I was particularly lucky to get it timed with Josh's Sludge Bombs as they began to rain down like well-placed artillery, just as I started to draw attention to myself with glares and a couple of Ice Beam attacks gleaming across my metal chassis. As painful as it was with a bitter biting at my metal coating, the payback came with an immense discharge of sparkling electricity coursing around me and whipping every bit of their nerves. Soon with spread-out magnets came the lovely dance of yellow bolts and sizzling poisonous firecrackers.

Reckless, covered in various poisonous purple juices, and it probably didn't knock even one of them down. I definitely had their attention though, carefully backing off while they were still recovering.
Holy crap I have a post ready for tomorrow.
okej so monsieur lugia is getting a new bitchin' laptop because old one broke

may need to wait until thursday america time
Oh dear. I'm so, so very sorry. I think I drifted off mid-sentence, or something... my memory's a little more than hazy past this pain. I'm getting frightened by all this blood(?) in my eyesight.

Let's get back on track. I do remember the startling suspense and tension of sifting through a curtain of darkness, not knowing what awaited you on the other side. Not that it was dark... actually it wasn't dark at all. Well, uh... hm... t-the light was in fact permeating throughout the entire cave, a-and well through a process of, well, total internal refraction which would in fact illuminate and reveal and show it to us all the enemies ahead and...

Alright come on, I'm not trying to make a memoir here. I have to tell it all, and I have to do it right, even if I literally can't remember anymore.

We marched on. This little ragtag gang stepping/floating/flying towards our goal. We were gonna unfreeze this little town even if it meant giving our lives. (Spoiler alert, we live. Otherwise I'd be a ghost right now.) I don't think I gave damn at the time, but looking back at it reassured me that it was worth living this wasn't just for some poor kelp's girl. We had an obligation not just as Guild members but living things in general to save others. After all, what would've Spruce done if he was here instead of me? He wouldn't have just flattened Kyreum's minions, he would've used their poor hides as spades to tunnel straight to Kyreum and give him a heart attack.

So, you know what? We were gonna do just that. Maybe with a little less digging, but we sure as hell weren't gonna let some measly pack of Pokemon block our way. We were boulders to these rolling pins and had just devastated a thousand other pins.

Yet we stumbled into what seemed like a trap. A featureless round room big enough to house our Guild's building. It almost got even bigger as I tilted my eyes up to see the ceiling, only to sight several Glaile and Froslass in the midst of dropping onto us. My eye got dizzy from witnessing the blur of the fall, a wave of stinging frozen air whizzing past us from their descent. A few words later and it wasn't long we were in for another fight, outnumbered and exhausted (and honestly a little unprepared). I could handle these things easily that didn't mean I wasn't taking damage. Anthony had the wind knocked out of him by a literal beam of ice, even for a dragon. As for me, despite leading the group at the time and being closest to enemy, every ice beam missed and reflected off the walls (harmlessly) like a laser show.

I gathered my charge with my magnet pair, sparks of yellow flying off my poles. Kamina literally burst into flames and began to bowl his way through, myself in the meantime locking my magnets onto a sucker that sidestepped Kamina and preparing a flash cannon, the smell of ozone almost putting me off. I knew it wasn't enough however - it might've looked cool with one magnet pointed and another spinning violently offhand with a brilliant white glow, but I couldn't make out what Josh was saying over the heat of the fight. Perhaps about Anthony being massacred if we didn't stop them, yet I knew it was too late; I sure as hell felt like an idiot not trying to block all the beams like a hero, but... well, I honestly can't remember why I didn't do it. Maybe I thought it wouldn't have mattered and that I'd just share the blow, which would at least crippled or ended us both, or that I wouldn't have been able to reach in time.

But you know what? Miracles happen, right as you screw up because life gives another chance. Sometimes Arceus knows to meet your prayers and will send you Saint Nicholas. Believe it or not (and you may ask the testimony of the others), a Pokemon with a spoon came in to save the day. He literally blinked in front of Anthony, and my goodness it makes this narration almost sound fictional. Whatever he did after involved a lot of headache-inducing purple, but at least Anthony wasn't a popsicle. I had no time to wait for the Kadabra's monologue, hovering myself steady as a bright shooting star twinkled and exploded over the unfortunate ice Pokemon. Ultimately I didn't really know how to react, perhaps a hesitant and confused grin on my eye as the Kadabra drew a look from me (and it wasn't because he could manhandle a bit of steel).

The fight certainly wasn't over though, hovering towards Anthony and trying to cover for his slimy body. "Goodness gracious Anthony!" I don't think I cried that out loud but... let's go with it. "You alright? You seen Reshiram too?" By that point... I can't actually recall seeing Reshiram. In fact, he almost disappeared from memory until I realised I lost headcount. I was still rather frantic with Anthony first however, almost ready to grasp him with my magnets though not actually doing it, considering he got knocked the hardest out of all of us.
if i wake up early enough maybe i could actually find the time and energy to post, instead of seeing the sun set within hours
