Gunryo Academy (what genre does this even belong in?)

Akira's sudden appearance on the stage reminds me of this little scene from KLK

As for the odds he knows of her, it seems that the two are listed as being in the same class. Add this to how he's the RP's Gamagoori, and he'll probably have a bone or two to pick because of Akira's attendance. So yeah, I can imagine he's at least heard of her.

Welcome to Gravetown!

Like the title suggests, this is an RP taking place in the city my co-GM (Greengoat) and I designed; Gravetown. It's a city for the undead and for the undead only. That said, it's primarily a slice-of-life RP with a few wrenches thrown in here and there to keep things interesting. At the moment, we're (I'm) still working out the final details of Gravetown, but we already know a few things.

It's a walled city, with literally nothing beyond the walls. It's home to a host of different types of undead, from zombies to mummies to yuki-onna to dullahans. The city is divided up into seven districts, which we'll get into later. Basically, it's exactly what I said; a slice-of-life RP taking place in the city of the undead.

So, despite my crappy explanation of things, is anybody interested?

Yu-Gi-Oh: Spirit

Krein said This RP really seems to have slowed down to where we can't even get a post a day sometimes...

The frequency of posts isn't what determines how alive an RP is; that's just the speedometer. As long as all the players are around and willing to wait/post, I'd say that's about as alive an RP can get.

Pokemon: The Spectre Conspiracy

Bailey de Chance was having a hard time. Same old same old there. She'd managed to get lost in Santalune Forest and had been going in erratic circles for quite a while. She had somehow managed to get a nest of almost-evolved Beedrills mad, tripped on the tail of a Pansage, and have a Scatterbug from freaking nowhere leap out of a tree and onto her face. To call her walk in the woods far from a walk in the park was...well...a cakewalk of an exaggeration.

After countless twigs, birds, bugs, and electric rodents, Bailey somehow managed to find the exit. Five hours ago. Right back into Santalune City. Then it was right back into the woods to try and get out in the right direction. She was just now emerging from the woods, onto Route 2, thankful that it was a short one. She could almost see Aquacorde City from where she stood, and so started running. It was a few steps later that she was reminded to tie her shoes, after tripping on the laces. After taking a couple of moments to tie her shoes and just barely avoiding being the new home of Pidgey crap, Bailey got back up on her feet and made a beeline for Aquacorde. Her new adventure was waiting, and now that it was going to start in just a few moments, she was getting excited about it again. What kind of Pokemon would she get? She just kinda hoped it was a Ghost-type.

Dashing up to the first group of people she could see, Bailey declared, clearly out of breath, "pant...Bailey de Chance...pleased to meet you, Professor." She then extended her hand to the one she addressed as Professor. The man with the S-shaped Unown floating by him; the one who wore the eyepatch.

"Over here," the actual Professor Apple said. Nodding toward the eyepatched man Bailey mistook for being the professor, she continued "This is my lab assistant, B. He assists me in researching Pokemon evolution. Naturally, you four will help out in your own way, too. Together, the two of us have done a bit of work and gathered up four Pokemon; one each. B, if you will."

Again, B snapped to attention as his Unown began circling the group, its cross-shaped pupil dilated. "Of course! I- oh dear-" One of the pokeballs slipped away and fell off the table, only for the Unown to swoop and catch it. "I'm sorry. I'd swear I'd lose my hands if they weren't attached to me." The Unown flew up to the table and dropped the pokeball in with the others. "As Professor Apple said, we collected four pokemon - I assure you, they're all quite tame, nothing to fear!"

"In the spirit of surprise, we won't divulge the species of Pokemon in these Pokeballs," Apple concluded. "Each of you will just step up, pick one, and see what you get."

Hiro, just noticed something. Would you object to starting with Azurill as opposed to Marill?

(wouldn't make much difference in the long run, but everybody else has two evolutions to look forward to whereas Marill only has one. Unless it was just a small mixup on your part and you in fact meant Azurill from the get-go :P)

Right now I'm just hoping the pawn shop guys aren't looking at the pictures. I took snapshots off my computer screen. Snapshots I'd rather not share
>.>
<.<

but yeah, working on a post now for Bailey & Apple

Pokemon: The Spectre Conspiracy

HAH! While I had to put my 3DS in the pawn shop (temporarily) to make it happen, I've returned! And as an unexpected side-bonus, my favorite library from my high school years is right near here ^_^

Now if only I could find my old and crappy YGO deck... :P

I find your abundance of faith pleasing, RB.

*ahem*

I will be moving tomorrow. Luckily, it's just one city over, so I'll only be transporting/unloading crap for 4-6 hours. If everything goes well, I'll be back online tomorrow and it's business as usual. If things don't go so well, it could be anywhere from a week to a couple of months before I'm back, so I'm putting RBYDark in charge until I'm back in the event that I'm gone longer than I should be. And, if things happen to go well, it'll just be to move again later on anyway.

As much as I love my life as a whole, I haaaaaaaate my life as a human being.

Pokemon: The Spectre Conspiracy

Kalos Region, Aquacorde City. It was a picture-esque view, to say the least. A nice bridge leading off in the direction of the next city, beneath which was a lovely blue river was the primary feature in the nice sights Professor Lily Apple saw from an outdoors table for six. Today, four trainers were to gather in Aquacorde. Her lab assistant was also here, but it was only natural that the two got here first. The fact that they left Lumiose City to get here yesterday may have also had something to do with it. Still, today was a lovely Kalosian day, so it was nice to not spend it all in a lab. Apple was sure her lab assistant - simply called B - could have agreed to that.

On the table she sat at, there was a sheathed sword with a blue cloth hanging from the hilt. It was her faithful Honedge. Next to her, also sitting, B, accompanied by an S-shaped Unown he brought with him to Kalos. The young trainers-to-be were to arrive today, so it was only fitting that the professor and assistant be here to greet them once they arrived. Breaking a short-lived silence between the two, Apple spoke up. "They'll be here any moment, B. Make sure to remember their faces; I'm sure we'll see them again later on."

B didn't respond right away - he was sorting through the pokeballs. It was his Unown's chirps that finally tore his attention back to Professor Apple. "Of course we will. How else will you get your dat- oh." One pokeball slipped out, and B fumbled to grab it. "You think they'll be good enough?"

"I admit, a couple of them seem kind of ragtag, but I think they'll be capable of the task." Setting her gaze back to the bridge, Apple awaited the arrival of the appointed quartet. Her Honedge could be seen blinking occasionally. Even he seemed eager to meet the people Apple chose.

Lugubrious said With all this interest, it seems almost a shame to arbitrarily limit the player count to four. There's no guaranteeing even those four will stay (aside from the OP of course) so I would guess that being open and risking a few quitters would leave us at about four anyway. But you're the boss.

Seems you've been beaten to the punch. EDIT: I don't even know what to replace that statement with. Feeling stupid now that I remembered I accepted your CS already.

I'll add Vincent Willow to the hider now, but if you'd like I can contact you before anyone else when/if a spot opens up later on. I'll admit, Hiro, you had a close call and I almost said no.
Sorry Phoenix, but I had three reasons to decline you, which I'll keep undisclosed unless you'd really like to know.

That said, we now have four trainers. Work on the IC is due to begin temporarily.
