[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-!

[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!]

[thegunsdonothing]

The Continent of Light-apparently the auroras tend to be prominent most times of the year here.

[lazywater]

And is there a way onto the others? I've looked around. We're not even close to the water's edge around this place. It's ice left right and centre.

[thegunsdonothing]

Blocked off-there was a cave in at the only entrance.

[lazywater]

Of course... why not. [En sighs.]

You've looked around the Exploration Guild Outpost, right?

[thegunsdonothing]

It's on my list, yeah.

Why?

[lazywater]

I didn't go myself, but I heard they're giving away free stuff to new recruits. Apparently the whole point of the place is to 'discover the secrets of the continent' and 'go explore the unknown', which is kinda what we want to do, right? Just we have an ulterior motive. [Don't say it like that]

Why don't we go there tomorrow and check it out?

[Why not today, you lazybones?]

[thegunsdonothing]

[Such would have been Amanda's thoughts, if she wasn't focused on these.] Sounds like something to look into after we're done here, yeah...

I wouldn't say we're out to 'explore' for the sake of exploring, but at this point any new information is good information.

[....she agreed...]

[lazywater]

Yeah, I know. Our ulterior motive.

[It's a miracle, really.]

These seeds look all the same.

SLEEP, YOU FOOLS

[thegunsdonothing]

From the outside, [Amanda starts, pulling on her 'gasmask' of cloth.]

Let's see about the inside...

[Claws dig in, and with a crack-!

GREEN SMOKE.]

[lazywater]

... [En isn't wearing a gas mask. So he just takes one whiff of it and he's instantly asleep.]

[thegunsdonothing]

[Unfortunately, gasmasks are useless against these. While she holds out long enough to mutter 'shit....'

...She's out like a light. Nice going nerds. Good thing it wasn't a petrify seed]

[lazywater]

[Thankfully, after a few minutes, this asshole is awake again.]

Uh... what were we talking about again? [He sounds tired and groggy]

congrats loser u get to tuck a grown woman into bed

[thegunsdonothing]

[Unfortunately, the mawile is not. And she's snoring.]
