That so needs to happen. Err, don't let Connor make them, though. He'll probably try to make Luxury Ball versions and fail horribly, making something entirely inedible.

Also! I ate sushi over the weekend for the first time! The tempura prawns were delicious (once I could manage to pick it up with the chop sticks), and the salmon tomato and rock shrimp tempura were okay, but the calamari gunkan had me gagging several times, with my mother actually hiding behind her hands at some point because she couldn't bear to watch. (Note that we ate dinner with my mother's godmother, who is a notoriously uptight and easily displeased individual.) All in all, I can say that it's tolerable, but I would much rather have preferred my brother's plain fish and chips + calamari. XD

PS: Never take a dare to eat the whole ball of wasabi, since you will feel distinctly ill afterwards.

Spoiler
If you thought I was stupid enough to accept a dare like that, the joke is on you! I dared my brother, who kept joking that he was going to steal the wasabi. I told him afterwards I was sorry for not being sorry. :twisted:

I dunno why it never occurred to us to make the food Pokemon themed in the first place. I guess it'd be on a festival ground, like the Sunstone festival next chapter. We could pull an Akira Toriyama and have the Bottomless Pit trope at a buffet with the more reserved kids eating sushi carefully in the bedlam.

Let me find a clip.

That. That's basically Saul and Hannah at a buffet.

Finally. Posted @_@

I have left deciding what, exactly, Jas, Art, and Miles do to the others completely open ended, so you lot can have fun with that. But since Jas is involved, expect, well, something that involves Murtle. And Rotom. Because those two ghosts should never ever ever be together they get Ideas.

Great post, @Rosendorn! Totally wasn't about to tag you as Jasmine. <_< Regarding the pranks, I vote Hannah, Cam and Saul be the victims. (Poor souls. XD)

*crumbles paper into ball and throws over shoulder* I like the new challenge anyway! I now just have to revisit the pad to see what my - by which I totally mean Connor's XD - team will be in the future.

Hai, people! I... exist, apparently! I'll just casually read everything and try not to mess up my first post despite being so late to the party.

(Yes I know Discord is the thing to use for communication, but eh, the DT's here, so, might as well.)


Ah, and I might as well show off my true feelings from being here, behind this unusually reserved tone.

...Yeah... Yeah, that's pretty accurate.

Saw it! Why do we even have antagonists... WELP, Guess you'll tell us eventually. That being said, if Team Inferno ends up bein' chosen, I'd love their Grunt theme to be like this:

Because it's so. Darn. CATCHY.


That being said, I call dibs on the next post, if possible! Finally caught up everything, and this tournament is a PERFECT excuse to introduce Heitor in a moderately fancy way :3
Won't be able to start writing until this weekend, however, sooo bear with me on this one.

Dibs called and granted! That said, since the tourney is in different tents, @BrumalHunter could theoretically continue wiping the floor with @TheSilverFox, yeah?

Or do you have an idea to enter during that brawl, @Tortwag?

Thanks!

Oh no, it's perfectly fine if the butt-kicking continues on their side, since I did catch these first matches were on different brackets. I just planned to have my own bracket happen, then have Heitor leave after his matches and meet the group chunk by chunk.

*throws a Luxury Ball at @Tortwag*

I recanted my vote for Team Inferno just so we wouldn't have a stalemate anymore. I really wanted the Mobster feel of Family Cicero, y'know?

SO @BrumalHunter @Sheytato @TheSilverFox @Lumi

Family Cicero will be our side evil. We get to decide as a clan (here and/or discord) what they do that's illegal/immoral.) My first idea is like cornering the TM market, wanting to get their app to be the monopoly for all Technical Machine Apps (TMAs), so they like target indie developers or rising developers like Art & Miles.

Oh, I forgot to vote on this! XD

What exactly does "Gene8" mean? And how much would Rocket Corp. be based off Team Rocket? And did you have any ideas for Team Inferno?

I had ideas for Vogon and Cicero while making this. XD

Because a company that performs illegal genetic research could be interesting, but I don't want to throw a spanner in the works. Might I request that we just change the name of the mobfamily? (I recently remembered that the Latin C is pronounced the same as a K, so Cicero is Kikero. I guess the name can stay, but it doesn't sound as nice as it did before. XD)

I don't mind changing the name of the mob family, or any of the names. In fact, I think the genetic-based storyline would be cool if you'd be willing to lead its conception. I'm not very good at sci-fi. >.>

What do you all say? @Tortwag @TheSilverFox @BrumalHunter @Sheytato
