>>21448346While I'm up for it, someone else playing it would add more variety and life to the thread, I think. If nobody's picked it up by the time I finish Dark Violet (I'm loving it so much)
>>21448247Partway through our dance the music cuts out and the captain comes on. He announces three winners of a random drawing for a prize, and it happens to be me, DICKS, and Green.
The three of us are obviously suspicious of that coincidence so we go in together just in case something fishy is happening, and to our chagrin, it's a trap.
We were lured in here by Team Rocket after Giovanni heard of me and determined me to be a threat. S. S. Anne has bombs strapped to it and they plan to blow it with us inside to prove they're more than petty thieves.
Ariana confronts me first, with Golbat/Nidorina/Haunter.
Archer follows with Golbat/Nidorino/Kadabra.
They leave after locking the door, but then Silver (I'm starting to hate this little prick) comes in like a big damn hero to save the day, and we turn off the bombs before anyone is hurt.
Silver continues his "psh... nothing personal... kid..." toward us and DICKS says what we're all thinking:
>What are you, twelve? Thirteen?Though he loses points by following up with
>I'm sixteen, and I can easily beat the crap out of you, kid.Which Silver one-ups with the non-sequitor (unless I missed something):
>My mother is dead...And then Green tells them both to stop their edge-measuring contest and she and DICKS leave. Silver calls my friends pathetic excuses for trainers and asks me if I'm one, telling me to talk to him when I want to battle. I think I'll wait until tomorrow for that.
Honestly, Silver is the one definitively negative part of the game (well, there's also like 75% of the major NPCs having a member of the Nidoran lines, but that's a different kind of issue). I really wish he'd tone it down.
