Did someone order a DORM LOG??

Who: You, you, you, and you
What: Dorm hijinks and etc. Whatever you want.
Where: Student and Teacher dorms, and quite possibly beyond. Whatever happens happens, bro!
When: September 9 - September 25
Warnings: I wrote 'hijinks'. That should explain everything.

Ripped off the last one and all its friends: Basically, here's what's goin down. We all know our characters experience downtime after classes and their busy schedules, and this is a good venue for those kinds of miscellaneous dorm-shenanigans to take place. Not only does it give your characters the easy chance to meet new people in a laid-back environment but it's a good mechanism for strengthening CR. It's easy!

Feel free to begin in any way you please! Plan with (a) fellow player(s) if you'd like! Or, set up a thread and wait for characters to bite! Anything and everything is possible. Break out the board games for a late night full of laughter, losing, cheating and bonding! Swipe the janitor's keys and gain access to all the impassable places your wildest dreams could only reach! Tiptoe quietly to the kitchen downstairs and make a midnight snack with all your friends! Drive all your neighbors to madness with your ceaseless My Little Ponyta marathons! Get in fisticuffs with your best worst lifelong rival on the rooftops at 4! It can all be yours if you make a thread. So have at it! Don't let this log get away untagged.

"Very well."

Cyrus also didn't know it was shiny, nor its type combination, and that was knowledge he prefered not to have at this time. To battle an unknown was a rare experience for him and he wanted to find things out directly.

He called out Houndoom. "Shall we begin?"

Hilda was also battling blind, more or less. She was aware of a Houndoom, but not it's type or anything. Hopefully she could use Ignita's bug-looks to her advantage for now.

"Alright. Lets start with Bug Bite!" Though Ignita wasn't the most powerful with attack (That was special attack and Hilda would keep that under wraps for now) The pokemon's speed stat was fairly high. Plus with the Flame Body ability - Hilda figured she had a decent chance. As the teen stepped back with a confident grin, the moth nodded and took to the field.

Well, it had wings. Perhaps it was part flying. He questioned his initial thought that it was a fire type, although if it wasn't flying it was almost certainly fire. Best to test things first. "Houndoom, Thunder Fang."

The dog growled, its mouth filling with electricity before it lept into the action.

"Brace yourself it as best you can girl and deliver that attack." Hilda grinned to herself, nodding slightly as she saw the pokemon's wings - no, ember scales - start to shimmer. Hopefully the Flame Body Ablity would burn the Houndoom when that attack hit, though she wasn't sure; the battle had only started after all.

And the Houndoom was putting itself in the path of Ignita's own attack.

Bug Bite was a severe hit, but owing to the level difference above anything else. Houndoom fought to right itself before delivering the electric attack. Cyrus readied a Full Restore in his pocket--items hadn't been agreed upon, but neither had their usage been banned.

While there was a squeal of pain, it wasn't super effective, though it did land a critical hit. It wasn't enough to get Ignita down into the yellow for health yet, and if thing did go there, she had a MooMoo milk ready, if things lasted that long. She hoped it didn't, if only for both pokemon sake.

"Head up for Fly!" She hoped that would through him off - much like it did her when she learned that the species could learn the HM move. Plus she'd avoid any attacks for a bit and that gave her time to plan a bit more.

From the reaction, it wasn't a flying type. Cyrus shrugged his shoulders for a moment. Fly would do only normal damage although he anticipated it stronger owing to the levels. While Volcarona was airborne, he tossed Houndoom the Full Restore.

Hilda shrugged her shoulders at the use of items in battle. It didn't matter much, but if he was going to use them then she'd do so if needed too.

As the Volcarona came down for the attack, the ember scales started to really shimmer, the Sun Pokemon's wings almost glittering. Hilda grinned to herself, arms crossed with a quiet sort of confidence in both herself and her pokemon. Though the teen did take a step back. Just in case any of the scales flaked off.

She already knew what her next attack would be, too.

"Dark Pulse." He didn't need to give verbal orders, having set up an elaborate gesture system with his pokémon, but this person...there was something special about her. Something unusual.

"Meet it head on with a Heat Wave." If you ask Hilda, there is nothing special about her.

As the air around the bug/Fire type started to shimmer, Hilda hoped that even if the attack didn't knock the other pokemon out, it'd at least burn it. And while Dark Pulse would only do normal damage, Hilda readied a MooMoo Milk anyway.

Heat Wave? His suspicion that it was a fire type was almost confirmed. Rrgh, almost a knockout. But that almost was a distinct difference in his mind.

"Thunder Fang," he ordered, unfazed by the damage to his Houndoom.

"Hang in there Ignita and meet it Bug Bite!" Hilda's voice only rose a little in anticipation of the victory as she watched on, knowing that her pokemon could take the Thunder Fang, though it would be close. Attention not wavering, she fished out a revive and another MooMoo Milk to give to her fellow trainer after the battle. It was only fair, and the battle had been for fun.

Or she saw it as such, just something to keep the team's skills sharp.

And Houndoom went down, Volcarona's attack stronger and faster.

Cyrus recalled it, mentally disappointed for the loss. He would have to be stronger.

"Good job." As soon as the battle was over, Hilda was heading to her pokemon, a MooMoo milk in hand, offering it out. While Ignita slurped it down, the trainer turned to Cyrus, holding out the Revive and drink.

"For your pokemon - and don't worry, I have plenty of revives and moomoo milks left. It fought pretty well, too."

But Cyrus didn't take them. "It is unnecessary. I have my own methods of healing." Really it was a bootleg version of the machine in pokécenters, but she didn't need to know that. "To consume for it would be needless waste."

"Well, if you're sure then..."" And back into the ~~hammerspace of a~~ bag the two items go.

"What sort of pokemon was that, too?"

"Houndoom, the Dark pokémon," was his brief answer.

"Oh cool. Sinnoh, right? Ignita's a Volcarona, the Sun Pokemon." Hilda grinned a bit, before remembering her manners. "And I'm Hilda. I think we've meet before, at the library?"

"We have..." At her name, he recalled their true first meeting, online. "I see. Had I known it was you..."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Completely clueless look now.

"You are strong, that much is clear. Are your convictions as strong as your Volcarona?"

"Well, yea. You don't get very far on faith alone. You need to have strong convictions to get through life after a certain point." A thoughtful look crossed her face before she shrugged and turned to start fussing over her pokemon, though she did look back around. "Anyway, what's your name and what do you mean by if you had known it was me?"

He stared out past her, towards the skyline. "My name is Cyrus. We have spoken before."

Rather quickly, her head turned away, if only to hide the OH. Crap. look that crossed her face. Her hand stalled a bit - dropped down towards her bag - before carrying on with the brushing and fussing over the Volcarona. Anything to keep from feeling nervous; this was the man that N had warned her about - the one that was far from ethical. Crap crap crap. The universe seemed to hate her, or something. ~~No, it would have hated Cyrus if the mun had gone with the second choice of Dawn.~~

Though she soon shoving down her own feelings, pulling on a brave stance. "Yea. On the network. You asked which hero I was..."
