[She had no knowledge of her 'personal' strength against the ice, but she cannot avoid feeling proud of herself when she carves the tunnel through it. It's large enough only for her-with divets to act as a ladder moving upward, until she makes it to a much larger, more spacious chamber. She's broken through it with an ease that astounds even her-though perhaps not other pokemon given the combined steel and fire attacks involved-but the room is not important right now.

A few days after people have settled in, and Amanda can be seen with her arms full of a number of objects-rolled scrolls, bags, supplies...anything she can carry with her arms and jaws alike, it's getting pulled up through the tunnel. Some may find the piles she has to carry piece by piece through at its door. Others, however-]

NGH-!

[Amanda isn't perfect; sometimes she stumbles, and that means it's papers everywhere, along with berries, seeds...] SHIT-!

Comments

[lazywater]

... Fair enough.

[The slakoth will flop his hands in front of him and then put his head down, lazily watching her.]

So how do you plan on doing this 'safely'?

[thegunsdonothing]

I need to make a gasmask.

[......................wat.

Don't get cozy there En, she's heading home for this.]

[lazywater]

[NOOOOOO HE'S COMFY!]

Ugh... Okay.

[Well he's gonna kind of roll along. He's gotten faster with the whole crawling thing at least]

[thegunsdonothing]

[It's gonna get worse En.

They soon come to what looks like a tunnel.

...Going almost straight up.

She's walking in.]

[lazywater]

... Hehhhhhhh... why did you make your ice room like this? Don't you find this troublesome?

[But damn it he's a dedicated friend he will follow]

[thegunsdonothing]

No more than whoever is trying to break in.

It's a precaution, [she adds, glancing back to see how the other is doing.]

[lazywater]

It's tiring.

[Despite that, he manages to get up the ladder pretty quickly. Climbing is one of those brute strength things that can make up for one's lack of speed.]

amanda no-

[thegunsdonothing]

If it's tiring, you need to exercise more.

[lazywater]

I didn't say it was too difficult. I just said it's tiring. It's an overuse of energy.

[Fuck it. He's already in]

[thegunsdonothing]

The best things tend to need that kind of thing.

[lazywater]

[En sighs and follows along into Amanda's room. It's his first time going into a girl's room, not that he actually cares.]

Hahh... Next time we do this in my room.

[thegunsdonothing]

If you're having trouble with the climb, how did you make a room?

[Alas, it is very not girly.]

[lazywater]

I smashed it so it was as much of a slope as possible. I didn't need a lot of space, so I just made whatever is convenient.

[thegunsdonothing]

So either way you're doing some climbing then?

you didnt say it was my tag usagi DX

[lazywater]

Of course. I'm lazy, but I'm not incapable of some movement. I just do what I want.

[Which is sleep. Now you gonna show your stuff already?]

sOMEHOW I FORGOT

[thegunsdonothing]

Right... [How dare you not believe him, Amanda.

The room they enter at any rate, is rather nicely cleared up; there are various storage boxes, a table with notes and blueprints scattered over it...many of the items are dumped on the ground, and she starts sorting through the mess.]

Don't forget to close the door, [She adds, gesturing to a large slat of wood beside the hole.]

it occurs to me truant has a different ability in SPMD than the other games

[lazywater]

[Yeah he saves the world (kinda) on a semi-regular basis!]

Wow... You've been busy, haven't you?

[Yes mother, he'll shut the door.]

lmao yea truant is basically motoki in dungeon land

[thegunsdonothing]

I couldn't just sit around after all-we're not getting out of here by doing nothing.

[That's cold, Amanda.]

so the only truant in en rn is his own incredible

[lazywater]

I guess not.

So what have you learnt anyway? We can compare notes.

[You have notes to share?]

they go in a dungeon, everyone not on the team falls asleep- 'holy shit you're radioactive-' 'D:'

[thegunsdonothing]

You have notes? [she asks, raising an amused brow.]

absolutely incredible. and en doing what he does best

[lazywater]

Of course. What kind of guy you take me for?

[Probably an accurate representation of what you are]

I get out of bed for a reason. If I wanted to just sleep, I'd stay in my room.

I've been slowly walking around the city and I just sit in places. Usually people don't notice me lying on the ground, so they talk. I pick up what they say. The adventuring district was probably the most informative.

[thegunsdonothing]

Hn-so you're good with recon, then.

[lazywater]

Surprising, right?

... So what do you know?

[thegunsdonothing]

Most of what I've been making note of is on the outside world; wherever we are, the known map includes five other continents, largely named after whatever their dominant biome is.

[..Words.]

[lazywater]

. . .

So what continent are we on?

[He knows one of them!]
