[x] I choose you, Nini. I am fine with Aya, and Nini has grown on me. I also metally autocorrect it to Nin-Nin, but I like dumb shit, so that goes in the pros columb for me. XD

Is attacking the trainers even Koscher for the Joshua option?

I love that immediately after he asks them to call him Teacher or Leader, they call him "Sir" instead. Which is perfectly valid, but seems like it might not be if you squint. The old ways. The true ways. Inb4 ditto Damn, someone beat me to it. Although there is a possibility that he somehow...

[X] Kumori It means "cloudy" in Japanese... except "Kumo" also means spider, so it's a dumb pun also. Gunna be real, for a moment I was like "Wait, why is this thread toxic? Has there been some chargen drama?" XD Then I realised it was a move.

[x] Bulbasaur [5 fate points] Grass/poison have some common types in earlier gens, which probably correspond to bettter odds of getting them without spending fate points. Also it's just dope. I certainly wouldn't be upset if best ghost wins though.

It's from Dune. The Kwisatz Haderach is the one male descendent from a long line of scifi witches, and the only male to inherit their powers.

[X] Joshua Joy [FAIRY] Now, I'm not saying he's the Kwisatz haderach, but he is looking suspiciously like the Kwisatz Haderach. Did he Teach our sister, or abandon the idea of teaching our sister? If the former, delete that comma.

Whatever we pay him, it's worth it. Anyway, the enemy encircles us, or so it seems, meaning that they are quite spread out. We are in a bad position, but if we escape, they are potentially quite vulnerable unless they can regroup faster than us. I see no reason to believe that there is any...

My suspicion is that she will either cut off their power or kick the shard into submission. With Ash Beast, there might not be any human left to save, if Tattletale is to be believed, and it is a shard that wholly took over its host.

Pretty much, yeah. Unless just yanking the bits out and hoping for the best worked (if you didn't mind you and your surroundings being destroyed), that wouldn't be a viable option.

It might be a good idea, especially to clear the taint of undeath so no-one does this again. We are likely the only person willing and able to do so. One option would be to have some clawbugs do it while we are safely away, but it's a risk as estimating the minimum safe distance of unknown...

Ohohoho! Ur-Sauron and Ur-Gandalf were buddies!

Would a biological timer be something we could potentially develop in the future? That could be a quite useful capacity to have, creations that will self-destruct before going rogue.

You are right in that we may not be time pressured to be fight-ready, (unless defending from wild mon is a thing). That said, we are pretty vulnerable until we catch a second mon, and will have to fight at least one battle in that state. Going for the best improvements per unit XP now minimises...

Not sure if they are old friends and he's giving her shit and/or repeating in-jokes, or if he is just aggressively not paying attention to anything about her. Just in time for a plucky young trainer in a cap to challenge us! At first I was like "I don't recall there being any lemons. Or...
