[It's a rare time when Noelle is in her room alone. The faint sound of chiptune music and various beeps or boops can be heard nearby, though. It seems she's distracted her roommates or other Oran Berries with her gaming console.

The sleigh bed takes up most of her section, but a lumpy gingerbread man plushie and a white cloth angel doll are prominently displayed. Noelle herself is wearing her snowflake patterned shawl.
]

Um, so... does anyone else here believe in the Angel?

[Maybe she should clarify. Most people here come from worlds that don't have monsters at all... only Kris probably knows what she means, and they probably don't want to talk about it.]

Or, like, a higher power of some kind. Any kind of spirituality, really. [Faint memories leak through- singing in a church choir, praying with clasped hands, dreaming about flying on feathered wings.] I was just thinking, like... how do you reconcile that with everything that's happened here?

I mean, this place has 'legendary Pokemon' and stuff, but... if you believe in a higher power who made everything, for example, did they make this world, too? Or do they not exist here? Do they all exist together?

February catch-all!

[ parvati's in her room, you think. it's a simple space. it isn't messy, but it isn't exactly clean either. there's a lot of things just scattered about; a few fledgeling plants in messy and lopsided clay pots, multiple toolsets, and various parts and knicknacks that are presumably for her use later. there's a large beanbag next to her window, and multiple shelves lined with trinkets. some that probably stand out are a wooden statuette of tenna t-posing (?), a crochet snow-pikachu, and a neatly folded scarf that inexplicably looks like a long bacon.

parvati herself is close to the pearl, that she's propped up on her small table that's covered in even more random parts she's acquired, and never used nor put away. screws, bolts, some rough equivalent to bobby pins she's found, hair ties...

she's shuffling in her seat, grinning from ear-to-ear does she even have ears in excitement about something she's holding out of frame. ]


Guys! Look what I found! [ whatever she's holding doesn't remain a mystery for long - she pulls it into frame and holds it up to the aperture. it's a picture of two women, in a hexagonal frame. ] No clue how it got here, but I had this! In my room! Back home!

[ a wistful sigh. she points to the woman sitting. ] That's what I look like. Looked like. [ her finger then moves to the woman who is standing. ] And that's Junlei! My girlfriend!

[ her glee is almost childlike. ]

⋆✩ SNOW MORE WINTER! ✩⋆



As February arrives, the heavy snowfall that dominated and defined most of January finally comes to its end. Little by little, the precipitation disappears, replaced by a gleaming winter sun high above the region. With the sun comes the first signs of the incoming spring as well - slowly, white melts to be replaced with green, and whispers of plans for field planting start to crop up.

It seems that the end of winter is on everyone’s minds! Or at least, it’s everyone’s hope right now.

Don’t let the watchog see its shadow now. )

I want to take a general census. No one has to participate, but input would be valuable.

To anyone who hears this and decides to participate, how long have you been here? Has there been any indication of being able to return, or is that something we all just avoid talking about?

And have there been any improvements on technology or general infrastructure besides what is powered by Pokemon abilities? Or are we really all going to remain living at the mercy of some Psychic types who can screw with our dreams whenever they choose?

At this point, I can't think of any reason why there's such an over-reliance on using powers that we can reasonably assume put strain on living beings, rather than to build external utilities that can renew themselves in order to allow for proper technological advancements.

[There's a reason he's rather sparing with his Grumpearl usage.]

[Akechi addresses the Pearl in his and Ren's new, high tier room. Thanks to the help of Maya and Mayaka, the conspiracy wall is all in order. So many notes! There are even some new ones, and an open journal lies at Akechi's tiny birdy feet.]

I'd like to take a moment to discuss the dreams from last month.

[Yes, the dreams. Surely a vast majority know what he means.]

More specifically, the rather... cataclysmic one toward the end of the month. Volcanic eruptions and ash, foreign beings unlike any Pokémon we've seen, and calamity consuming the land.

[He brings his wings together like a pair of hands, breathing in.]

I believe this is significant, between the fossilized remains at Furnace Mountain, the ruined copy of the Archives in Heavy Downmoor, and the words imprinted upon us when exploring new regions and when rescuing lost Pokémon.

[He turns his Pearl toward his notes on the latter. Some ominous phrases appear:

Something important is... missing.'

Wait... Wait, stop!

They're going to leave me behind!

No, no, no, not again!

Are we who we think we are?

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

How many times have we been here? How many times have we lived here? How many times have we fallen to ruin?


There's an additional note about "doing it again" as well, though the phrasing isn't exact.]


Flowey and I had already hypothesized that there may be a cycle of destruction at play. That dream only solidified that hypothesis.

[He flutters over to another portion of the board, where the previous bounties are noted.]

And now we have three new bounties to contend with. Something keeps driving Pokémon mad, both in the form of these larger threats and the smaller swarms. Missing Pokémon go missing multiple times, yet their memories remain inconsistent...

I'm not yet sure how it all connects, but I do believe that nightmare holds connections to Furnace Mountain, if nothing else, and may be an omen of things to come.
