We Can See You Hate The Way We Intermingle

Who: Participants of the Freaky Fusions Boss Battle!
Where: Birth Island, in the Sevii Islands!
When: Thursday, October 29th through Friday, October 30.
Summary: You blinked, and now you've been glitched. And that sure is a spooky-looking Fusion Legendary, all right...
Rating: PG-13; please remember to mark threads accordingly if they go higher!
Log:


Well, draw some intersecting lines and call me a Triforce, this sure is an island, all right.


KEY:
• The GLOWING X at the upper portion of the island is where you will find Mewssingno! It won't be moving around much, so it will always be in the relative top section of the island, furthest from the safe haven for participants in the south. Exercise caution getting close to it, because...

• The PURPLE area surrounding Mewssingno is all area that will be affected by glitches! Inside that area, strange environmental things are likely to occur, such as attacks being deflected, neutralized, or outright disappearing and reappearing somewhere else, as if passing through a very small wormhole in space! You may play around with these effects as much as you like, but they should be contained to this particular area, and remember to ask permission from other players before randomly diverting a Hyper Beam through a wormhole directly at them in tags.

STANDARD GRASSY areas in the lower part of the map are places in which characters are guaranteed to be safe from Mewssingno's glitches; however, these areas will be overrun by Fusion Abominations, so if you're just here for the garden-variety fighting of SquirtWeedMagneZards, this is probably where you'll be spending a lot of your time!

• The BLUE STAR in the south indicates a guaranteed safe zone from both Mewssingno and the Fusion Abominations. This is the station where a ferry to the island would dock, so you can find places to sit and a general atmosphere of relative quiet in here, making it a good place to store your wounded or to hide out. Characters may notice ICly that the Fusion Abominations and Mewssingno are avoiding this zone, or at least leaving it alone!

Refraction, she thought to herself.

"Maybe we should just..." Asami trailed off. Should just what? There wasn't anything they could do. She didn't have any resources here. She was essentially useless, and it was grating on her. Scaring her.

"We need to get out of the immediate fire zone so we can actually think of something to do." Without getting hurt.

Korra wanted to protest, but Asami was right. They couldn't do anything, and it was stupid to stay here in the thick of things if they couldn't even land a single hit on that thing. But there was that part of her that hated to give up in any sense, and hated the idea of backing down still. Even when everything else in her was agreeing that it was the smartest plan.

But Asami especially looked like she really didn't want to be here. That was the deciding factor.

"Okay." Korra nodded. "You're right, let's fall back."
paishodown: (hrmph)

Asami was visibly relieved that it had been this easy. She took Korra's hand and immediately pulled for the shore. Nowhere was completely safe, but if they couldn't land any hits, there was no reason to be here.

She couldn't help but look back, even as Asami was hurriedly pulling her away. It was like some weird, animal reaction. Her stomach tightened and there was this deep seated fear that if she turned away now, that would be it. That thing would get loose of whatever was keeping it at the top of the island and destroy everything. She had to do something.

But there were dozens of other people, and their Pokemon teams, going at it. Logically she knew that most people knew better, had more experience with Pokemon fighting, and understood this world much better than her. And Asami didn't want anything to do with this, something that was only becoming more and more clear. There was every single reason to get someplace safer, make sure Asami was okay - not just physically - and actually try and come up with a plan.

But it still felt like abandoning what she believed in, somehow.

But she went, and without any obvious protest. Asami first. She squeezed the other woman's hand gently in her giant paw, and finally turned away from the battle that retreated behind them.
