Texts From Folknight

Welcome to Folkmore's Texts From Last Night meme!

Because it's still April and Thoth is still amused, consider this round two of the Initial Misfire Edition. Initial messages maaaaay go to the wrong person! So not all hell breaks loose, replies carry forward with whoever you've reached, but you might be texting your innermost intoxicated or sleep deprived secret to someone you don't even know.

If you'd like to opt out of misfires, please include this in your top level (by prompt or overall). Otherwise, enjoy indulging Thoth's amusement and building some new CR.

This meme can be used as a branch off from our Test Drive Memes and be used as game canon or just for casual fun in the setting! You do not need to be in our game or be invited to play on our TFLN. This can be a great way to meet current players for future invites, get a feel for the setting, or just have some fun.

This can be used for samples on our applications and as spoons for players accepted into the game.

I had thought you were already doing that.

[i_am_emmet]

Not yet, I have been planning on offering one because of the number of people without a Pokémon licenses here. But I have had more important things to worry about.

I need to rework the script to include descriptions of Pokémon for people who had never seen more than one or two before.

[offtracks]

I suppose there's no particular rush, if there are no Pokemon around to catch anyhow. They aren't likely to come into possession of one.

[Really, he only heard about this as a Maul-specific thing.]

[i_am_emmet]

True, but I worry. He has kept a Pokémon in its ball for months Ingo. Thats horrible.

[offtracks]

Can they not break out of the modern ones?

[He'd heard about this, vaguely, but hadn't really gotten the MONTHS part!]

[i_am_emmet]

They can. Which is why I was even more worried. What if the thing was fainted?

[offtracks]

That is terrible!

[Though, having heard the story, Ingo believes the fault is with whoever gave it to him in the first place. You shouldn't just hand Pokemon out to unsuspecting people like they were gifts!]

Perhaps a small public service announcement, only about how to recognize a Pokeball, is in order? I cannot imagine everyone would attend the more thorough class - though I certain do think one should be offered for those who are interested!

[i_am_emmet]

That is a good idea. Because wow, I get very mad thinking about it.

[offtracks]

Indeed.

[Though Ingo mostly feels ill to think of it. And strangely guilty, even though he had nothing to do with any of it?]

Of course, I would hope that no one is leaving occupied Pokeballs around or handing them out here! But it could not hurt anything.

[i_am_emmet]

I will have to think of one that covers all sorts of Pokeballs.

[offtracks]

They do all have the same general shape, at least. Don't they?

[Maybe some of them are weird in the future?]

[i_am_emmet]

There are some weird ones. Like this one I saw from Alola that had a grid pattern and looked uncomfortable to hold.

[offtracks]

But they're a ball that opens up still? With a latch or button?

[Ingo's seen Emmet's Pokeballs - a little less complicated than his own in design, but you can tell they're variations on the same thing!]

[i_am_emmet]

Yup, but people might think any small sized ones are like gacha things or something.

[offtracks]

You can just warn them about that!

[what's a gacha, we don't care]

[i_am_emmet]

True. It must get very inconvenient with multiple full size pokeballs.

[offtracks]

Goodness, yes!

[i_am_emmet]

Like...what if you wanted to just hit up a sale and carry 200 pokeballs?

[offtracks]

That seems like an unnecessary amount!

[i_am_emmet]

Some days, you have very bad days catching Pokémon.
