Log:
[ In the front of the Breeding Centre of Goldenrod City, there's a small stage placed down. On said stage is one microphone stand and one Souji Seta with his Riolu pawing at him. Pick up, pick upppp. Hold on, audience. ]

Not now, Setanta. I promise later.

[ Whoops, sorry about that. Just having to deal with a shy Pokemon. It's just going back inside the centre to mope until dinner time. So, turning his attention back to the audience, Souji clears his voice. ]

Thanks again for signing up for the game of paintball, guys.

The game is simple: be the last team standing and then be the last person standing in the final round. I've sent out a text to everyone on what team you should be on, but if you've forgotten, I have a chart up here for you to check. [ Pointing his thumb back at a sheet of paper taped to some whiteboard stand. ]

For some teams, due to uneven numbers, we have these four Pikachus that will be playing along... [ At that exact moment, four Pikachus holding paintguns walk up. They look pretty intimidating. All of them are wearing their team colour scarves over their mouths and they look like they're ready to tear someone's face off. One of them has an eye-patch, another is wearing some glasses, and the last one is... is that one smoking a cigar? ] Apparently, they're really good at paintball for some reason. [ Souji is looking like this right now, so he has no idea. ]

[ A-Anyway... ] I've also sent out a list of rules to your gears, but once again, if you've forgotten, check out the stand. Main points are that the use of Pokemon in the game are forbidden except for the four Pikachus here and you can't enter any buildings to get onto the roofs.

So, grab your team colours on the table beside the stand-- [ He points to it. ] --and a paintball gun from the table next to it. All guns must be returned at the end of the game, but if you want to keep it, just find me at the end of the game to pay for it.

Paintball refills are over at this stage as well or at the Pokemon Centre. Those are the only two neutral zones, so you can't shoot others there. There's also refreshments, but don't take too long of a break.

Well, that's enough from me. Grab a gun, goggles or sunglasses, and team colour.

In ten minutes when the clock strikes noon, let the game begin.

[ Go for it! ]


(( ooc: Remember, teams are posted right over here! Please go check on what teams you're on and you can continue using that post to plot around, or you can go in for a surprise and just ask who might be in or out in the subjects. Winners, please go comment with the prize that you want! ))

(( Rules/points are both here and here in bullet points. Please reread them and if you got any questions, give me a pm or ask over at the second ooc post under the 'QUESTIONS/CONCERNS/ETC' thread! ))

(( Backtagging is what we're all about, people! So, backbackbackbacktag, and it doesn't matter if you tag in prose or action tags. Just go with whatever you feel best with! So, enjoy the free paintball game, guys! ))

Mmm. It's an unorthodox hiding spot - I just hope it works. I'm not exactly the most mobile person at this point in time.

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

Okay then. {The tree rustles and shakes a bit, and then a small woman dressed entirely in purple drops down, legs hooked over a branch.}

I'm Ise Nanao, by the way.

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

{DID YOU HEAR THAT SHRIEK. It was the shriek of a very surprised someone who dropped their gun in shock.}

{...that thunk is their gun hitting the ground from their hiding place.}

[restardom.livejournal.com]

[ and darting out to FIRE. ]

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

Even when I'm wearing all purple - well, I can't really complain, can I?

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

Well. You've got a few centuries on me, that's for sure.

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

....but I'm in a tree. How can I sneak about when I can't move?

[king-of-flames.livejournal.com]

[Oh, he recognizes it. And it's making him angry.]

You think I'm not gonna defend myself against someone who's breaking the rules?!

[He uses the lid to block some more shots, then leaps sideways to get a better shot around the can.]

[quickattackjack]

_[THERE.]


IIIIIIEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

<sub>[Jack scurried like a spider towards the sound, clambering up on windowsills and fire escapes, hell-bent on finding the source of that scream, all the while belting out his own.]

[HE IS COMING FOR YOU, NANAO.]</sub>

[demonbuddy.livejournal.com]

It's nice to meet you! I'm Elsie. [Clearly the battlefield of paintball is the best place to make friends.]

Maybe we can talk more after the game is over?

[dragonspeak]

...erm. [Well, now that she points it out...Merlin looks at his gun with new mistrust.]

They do this all the time, at least from what I've heard. It couldn't be that dangerous....could it?

[dragonspeak]

[He's looking relieved, both at the smile and the reply.] Oh, good! Arthur's told me I talk too much sometimes, but I don't think I've had a problem since I got to Johto, actually.... [Small smile.] Maybe it's just him.

[abdications]

Well, you were hiding and popped out of nowhere! You can't expect me to not be ready for an ambush, can you?

<3

[dragonspeak]

Thanks!! [Heeee's not sure if this person's on his team or not, but oh well!]

Good luck with your targets! [And just as he's turning his attention back to Souji, his foot finds its way into a puddle of paint and he goes crashing down onto the ground. Ouch!]

You alright there?

[dragonspeak]

Yeah, I'm fine. [Just a little winded, but after he shakes himself off a bit, he just laughs.] Wouldn't be the first time that happened, honestly.

Let's see...where did my gun get off to... [He spots it on the floor a couple feet away, having slid there when Merlin lost his grip on it during the fall.] Aha!

[k9tantei.livejournal.com]

[ COUNTER-ATTACK!! SACRIFICE A SHEEP TO GOD!!! ]

[dragonspeak]

[Visible as the armband is, Merlin's eyes are actually sweeping the grounds, looking for Souji's familiar form. So with his attention elsewhere, of course he slips again when he's straightening.

This time, though, his hand shoots out, catching onto a nearby bench to steady himself.

What he doesn't realise in his panic is that his grip on the paintball gun (and its trigger) tighten, sending a couple rounds of paint straight at Heiji. Oops.]

1/2, you know why not :D

[] He went left up ahead; there's a couple dead-end alleys to th'left side of that street that'd be decent ambush spots, an' a clear road on th'first right.

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

Good point.

{And, as a gesture of good faith, she flips upside down on the branch she was sitting on, and pokes up upper body out of the foliage, one hand keeping her glasses on her face.}

Ise Nanao, pleased to meet you. And I'm sorry for startling you, miss..?

[restardom.livejournal.com]

[ DON'T YOU BRING YOUR QUESTIONABLE HABITS INTO THIS-- ]

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

Pleased to meet you, Elsie. And I'd be happy to do that.

{And grabbing her rifle.}

Now... How are we going to go about this?

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

GODDAMNIT ALL!

{And she is trying (not very successfully) climb away, because sob what is hiding when you're wearing all purple.}

{Fucking legs not working, why did she sign up for this, etc etc}
