Plot with Aera's Charas

Kurt Emerson Avalyn Glasse
Tagging you here because I'm not sure of another appropriate place to summon you both without resorting to PMs.

For a few days (it's taken me a few days to work on a reply for Kurt on Nitrine's ranch) I've wanted to throw Angel into the Lazy Lake thread on the grounds that he told Kurt he'd be a babysitter so he needs to find some babies to sit on. It'd actually be pretty interesting to have him interact with young Pokemon as well as his teammates/other Pokemon, considering I'm not sure what he'd think of babies, and his/his alters' list of threads is rather scant altogether. It would also be nice to develop some real relationships with other Pokemon, particularly his ranchmates -- the big timeskip between old Gaia Ranch and Gaia Island left a lot of his history with Kurt's team essentially guesswork.

Having said all that, I noticed Echo was interested in wrapping up the thread. I wanted to ask if it would be more appropriate to wait for a new thread with youngsters in it (or make a new thread) rather than join in Lazy Lake. I'm not sure if Angel would have much to add or much to do except embarrass himself because he doesn't like water and has no idea how to babysit. What even are children. Jello help.

If I am invited into or charged with making a new thread, it'd probably have to wait a bit, since all of Nitrine's active threads and all the plotting I've been doing has been catching up to me, on top of Astori coming back to finish the thread we'd made when the site was still dead (which I had tentatively marked as dead due to inactivity).

Ahhh, whoops... We just finished up the Lazy Lake thread (unless Ava says otherwise? I'll let her decide, seeing as I left it open if she wanted to do one last post).

But I'm up for more threads with Angel and any of my Pokemon. Considering you sound like you have a lot on your plate, I don't mind waiting for you to start a thread, if you'd like.

As a general announcement, I'm in the process of updating the OP of my plotter with my new characters.

Since August has become a rancher, I recently re-read the little blurb you wrote for him on this thread. The idea of him becoming "frienemies" with Nitrine appeals to me greatly now that they're more likely to see each other. In a current thread with Kurt, he mentioned August in passing, that he raises Dark, Ghost, and Poison-types, and that Kurt "hasn't met him but he's probably a nice guy" and I imagined Nitrine saying "Oh... yeah, I'm sure he is," and then thinking "Well if he raises Dark- and Ghost-types he might be kind of an a-hole."

Knowing that August raises types he dislikes, Nitrine would probably be wary of him while also knowing how to be civil, not outright disliking August himself unless Harlequin pulled a prank on him or one of his other Pokemon actively threatened Nitrine. I imagine if animosity became a thing, Nitrine would be walking in the woods with someone else and throw his arm around them and point to Crescent Grove like "see that ranch over there? a huge a-hole runs that ranch." At that point, it might be a little hard to convince him to let August use Cole as a stud, depending on how Cole behaves as he grows in levels and matures into a rebellious teenager. Although at that point they'd be more like enemies than frienemies.

Hey, maybe August can even kick Nitrine's butt and be like "okay so fun fact not all ghost and dark types are bad, get over yourself what is your problem" and Nitrine might even talk to him about His Feelings and bonding can happen. ~~Friendship~~ Except maybe not BFF kind of friendship but more of a slightly-vitriolic friendship.

@aeranautics

Eep. Sorry, Aera, but we did just kind of wrap up Lazy Lake. But, yeah, like Kurt said, I'm up for anything. If you'd like me to try to start a thread, let me know. Otherwise, if you want to take your time with a new thread, Aera, that's cool too.

Also, big at "What even are children. Jello help." xD

Also-also, on a semi-random note, considering they both work with Poison-types, I'm imagining that Bryar and @ninja will eventually be decent friends. Bryar's friendly with everyone and, while August seems to be on the quieter side, I think they'd have a friendship similar to Bryar's and Raphael's. Since Bryar is also friends with Nitrine, it may be interesting to see the trio's dynamics if Nitrine and August are "frienemies" with Bryar in the middle. Just thought I'd throw that in.
