The tower used to be stone. Perhaps it was part of a cliff in ages long passed, but wind and rain and crumbling time carved it into a singular finger pointing towards the sky. Then, centuries of habitation by the Pokemon of Asper have reshaped it again. Not all Pokemon can fly, and the exterior of the tower is covered in stairs, handholds, vines, tiny waterfalls, and dozens of rest spots for weary climbers. It's a great hike, if you don't mind moving vertically, and there are a thousand tiny spots for a misplaced egg to go unseen. Make a post in this thread with you and your Pokemon searching for eggs around the Rookery. You can post multiple times, but please leave room for other players. Once an EGG spawns, return to THE ROOKERY to identify it! All players present in an ongoing thread when an egg is found may collect the Rookery Egg. @open

What would he do with an egg anyway? Eat it? But once Lucy heard him talk about it in their camp she decided they had to immediately go looking for one. Hence the cliff he was now on. Lucy was having a great time. She was running up and down the stairs acting like she was looking for the elusive egg. Manish wasn’t sure she was actually looking though; from where he was sitting it looked more like she was just getting her cardio for the day in running around rather than actually looking for the egg. “Hey, hey Luc? You uh, you sure there’s actually an egg. Um. Here?” Lucy froze for a moment before rolling her eyes and jumping over to another ledge. <Of course there’s eggs. You saw the announcement. Heck, bossman, you’re the one who read it to me! They wouldn’t say there were eggs if there weren’t actually eggs> Manish kicked his bare feet and picked at a mushroom. “I dunno, I mean, there was that whole thing where my ‘rival’ got all weird and old. I wonder how he’s doing? Oh man I hope I never find out.” See the rival once was plenty of times for Manish. He really didn’t want to fight someone one on one. Fighting the giant pokemon was stressful enough. Doing an actual battle felt a little too much like something that would send him down an ethical spiral again. <Whatever, come on, bossman! We got a whole mountain basically to search and you sittin' there aint helpin.> Manish let out a sigh and stood up. Lucy was right, no point in sitting around, the sooner he and Lucy found the egg, the sooner he could figure out what exactly he was supposed to do with said egg.

What was that? Wasn't that the jesus holiday or something? He'd laid eggs for a miracle or something like that... At least that was Inari remembered vaguely from some guy at a subway or something. He wasn't sure what it meant but he was sure that he wanted whatever sort of event item it could get him. Probably something cute... And for some reason rabbit related? That holiday was extremely confusing to him. Jiaozi climbed on a rock beside him, deciding that the view would be better from up there. Short lizard legs scrambling up the surface made him wonder if he should help her. But she'd made this mess on her own. < how are you going to climb the mountain in those clothes? you weren't thinking very practical when you dressed this morning, were you? > Of course the orange lizard had something to say. If only he'd gotten a more peaceful Pokemon as his starter. Life would have been a lot easier than this. "What I'm wearing is fine, just look for the eggs already." < you look for the egg. you're the one who wants it. > Whoever coded this beast deserved to have a wet sock every wednesday of the week. With a frustrated sound he resisted the urge to push the fire lizard off of the rock and to keep his composure rather well. He didn't need a repeat incident like when he dealt with Furrlicity. What an absolutely stupid name by the way. Furrlicity. People actually said that out loud talking to that guy. But instead of focusing on that he decided to see if he could find the egg that was somewhere around here. But he wasn't sure if it was supposed to be a large or a small egg... Or what color it was. Kicking a rock ( to make sure it wasn't an egg of course ) he sent it flying accidentally towards the other duo who were searching for eggs as well.

He was surrounded by rock shaped eggs. Or, maybe egg shaped rocks? Either way, lately he had started to feel... urges. Fish were just delectable when he played this game. Long stretched of sunshine were perfect to lay in. The urge to climb on top of things he didn't belong. And now... he wanted to bite all these damned eggs. "Something is wrong with me." He said, mournful, his cat-man ear twitching on his head and his long, cat-man tail twitching behind him. His Treeko gave him a forlorn pat on the shoulder from his side. < Maybe Cream Cake, uh... Creamy Molten... hmm... Maybe Sobble can clean them off for you? > He would do it himself but sadly did not have the power. Furrlicity sniffed and lifted a rock-egg up, unable to resist chomping down with his kitten-sharp teeth. That was about the time he spotted manish and inari. When his mouth was full of egg (rock).

Manish assumed it was Lucy trying to his attention and turned to yell at her while rubbing at the back of his head. “Hey! Oh…” his eyes widened as he realized that Inari was the likely culprit for hitting him. “Oh. Um. I mean, hi? Uh, yeah. Hello. I’ve uh, I’ve seen you around? I guess? Not in a creepy way where I’m like watching you or something! In a normal, um, way. Where I’ve seen, uh, you.” He stuttered out before turning his head away in embarrassment to only be faced with a Furrlicity with a mouthful of rock. “Um. Also, uh, hi? I’ve also seen um, well, you? In a not creepy way!” He raised his hands in what he thought was a non-threatening manner. Manish took a deep breath and waved one of his hands. “Okay, I can do this, okay, um. Hello. I’m Manish. Also, um, why uh, why are you eating a rock? Not that there’s anything wrong with that! Um.” Manish looked down at his feet and kicked at a mushroom. Great. He made a fool of himself in front of two people who would now definitely never be his friends. An idea popped into his head. If he found them all eggs, maybe he could still salvage this! “Are you uh, are you both looking for eggs? I can, um, I mean, I’m also definitely interested in finding eggs and can help!” Lucy snorted and rolled her eyes <looking for eggs my ass…> Manish shot a glare at her before smiling at the other two. “Very into looking for, uh, eggs. That can maybe be eaten? Or thrown? Maybe? I don’t uh, I don’t actually know what to do with them…” Manish trailed off before scampering up another ledge and looking around. “Anyway! Eggs! Um. Yeah, uh.”

Player Character Posts: 141 Player Name: zhao xiu OOC Username: cupid	Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top Post by inari on Apr 19, 2022 21:27:15 GMT 9 Inari almost felt bad that he hit the guy with the rock on accident. He seemed like a nice sort of guy that didn't deserve to be hit with a rock. But then again a lot of people who seemed like that deserved to be hit twice so... he was just being cautious and getting it out of the way right? Then there were people who both deserved to be hit with a rock and everyone knew it. And that was Furrlicity Purrfection. Who was eating a rock. "We are in fact looking for eggs, it seems to be the new event that the game has put out. I'd love your help at finding some though, it seems as if they match the rocks... Maybe a bit too much for some people." Even if he still didn't understand why eggs were important he wasn't about to neglect the fact that this guy offered to help him find some. He turned his nose up just a little bit at the conflicted cat man and gave a small smirk. "And you called me a freak..." For something that wasn't even true and was completely false. < don't listen to him! he is a little freak! he threw me at some infernape. > The urge to put his Pokemon away was high but he couldn't risk being in a place like this and not having a Pokemon on hand in some way.

Even with his mouth full of egg-rock, Furrlicity still took the time to shoot a wink and finger gun at manish. "You can look at me as creepy as you want." Tossing his not-egg down, Furrlicity accepted another one from Treecko. He hummed when this one was... warm... weird.... Anyway. Standing up, he walked over to Manish, the Actual Egg that Wasn't a Rock wedged into his armpit. "Did you hear what the Charmander said?" He said, stage whispering and looking at inari to make sure the other man heard him talking shit. *"He threw* his pokemon at an Infernape. Who does that?"** Since Furrlicity had no sense of personal space, he tried to fling his arm around Manish's shoulders as if they were super best friends. He then just grinned at Inari, pleased with himself. Poor Manish was about to get dragged into the middle of something.

He didn’t think he had ever been winked at before. Well, except for by Father when he was telling a particularly biting joke, but Manish wasn’t totally sure if it was the same now. “The..the charmander?” Manish took a guess that he was probably referring to the little red lizard. “Oh, well, I mean uh, I guess that depends on, um, well the context? I don’t, uh, I wasn’t there but uh, Inari is nice? And I don’t um. Well. Wouldn’t do it, um. Maliciously? But uh…” Manish froze as the arm draped over his shoulders. The mild blush he had instantly turned his whole face red and mushrooms instantly sprouted around his feet and in his hair. No one outside of Mother or Father had actively touched him in such a way for…well, for a very long time. But Manish had seen television, he knew that this was a thing Friends did. Usually it was very close friends, though. Does that mean that he was already Close Friends with Furrlicity? Could making Friends really be that easy? Okay, he could do this. He just had to play it cool and act like this was a Totally Normal thing that happened to him all the time. He had many Friends who touched him. This was fine. The thudding of his heart and bright red face said otherwise, but Manish was hoping everyone would ignore that part. One thing he did know, though, was that he didn’t want Inari to feel bad for maybe throwing a pokemon. That would be a bad thing, but context is important. He learned that in his ethics class. So, Manish tried to change subjects and looked at what Furrlicity shoved under his other arm. “Is that uh, did you find um. A uh, that looks like an egg?” He shot a look at Inari, hoping that he conveyed ‘I believe you’ with a very awkward smile.

They never did whenever Furrlicity was around. Because he was hateful and not handsome at all. And how dare he talk about how he had had to use Jiaozi to get away from Infernapes and further in the event they had been playing in. Furrlicity didn't understand it was a life or death situation and if he died then that would have ruined the whole event. Not wanting to be one-upped he gently took Manish's hand and pleaded a bit with him. "It was during that Temple Event! She had turned to stone... It wasn't a choice I made easily of course." It had been a choice he made extremely easily. But he wasn't going to tell anyone else that. There wasn't a need for everyone to know that him and his starter didn't get along. It would be more fuel for the fire between him and Furrlicity if he did. "Did you already find the egg?" How was it even possible that someone had already found it among all of these rocks? That seemed silly. And far too easy.
