It's Bink's Song! This line works if you drop the apostrophe, as the but is a pickup type note. I take it you're excited for One Piece Film: Red, as well?

New chapter woooo!
Oh? Is this a religious thing?
[wince] Oh gods that's horribly flimsy.
Hang on, is she playing the music that plays in-game when you're on Mr. Briney's boat?
Ancestor threw down with Regirock?
Or Regice!
OH SHIT. This is a development: bleed-over so strong that Astra subconsciously broadcasts it.
Wait what? I don't know what this is getting at. Regice doesn't even learn Follow Me or another move that fits this.
And is this the surfing music?

I plan on seeing it when it's available.
I was listening to the title theme of Wind Waker.
Winter's Eye has been howling for few thousand years. That's a lot of time to explore your options, and maybe invent some new ones.
May was humming Bink's Sake, which lead into the shanty bit; also basically a lyric change to Bink's Sake.

Ah that was nice. It's good to have them on the road again, the city was beginning to feel quite a bit stuffy.
And Briney is quite the joy to be around it seems.
Clearly they incorporate the poison to use it for their own defenses!
Astras understanding of the strange mobile trees that cover the world is ever increasing!
No Astra! Don't feed the shippers!
The eye of winter does not fuck around. I like how everything that happens matches the in game journey, I never realized how well the ships actions fit the enviroment. Of course giant stone pillars would be a sailing hazard, and of course that one ice cold island with fog around it would be terrifiying to sail through instead of watching from a birds perspective for 4 seconds.
Aaaaah good old Astra, can't go 5 seconds without mysteriously ominousing or ominously mysterising
At this rate, May and Brendan won't think she's a run away cultist, they will think she is the worlds most cute unsealed ancient evil in a can!
Has deep insight into the ancient world, is flabbergasted by modern tech but seems extremely well adapted for roughly young stone age living, has mysterious competences and seems to need to be reminded how to human (including sometimes growing a bit over less than a week) and showed up with nothing but black robes and a strange blade.
Oh no sounds like whoevers trapped there us calling for help. And has been calling for help.
For millenia.
I'd wager the latent and active psycics. Millenia of unheeded wailing must take on an interesting and intense psychic note.
Rescuemission when?
Is this surf? It matches surf.
May protagonist power activate!
That's what she needs the rosalia poison for!
Poor Briney sounds like he has quite some sad stories to tell. That didn't sound generic at all.
Something something stop baiting the shippers.
Alas, May the most adorable friendship tsundere.
Astra no one buys your nonsense your friends are just far to nice to call you out.
Those two fools are lucky the weathers kind and the waters calm and shallow. That kinda nonsense can get you frostbitten or killed.
Brendans hero worship is adorable!
Now that sounds interesting. Wonder what happened there.
If it worked, he can hardly be called a fool. A thousand years of rougher sea is easily worth protection from even a single invasion.
Humanity really does create it's own hell in the end.
Except in modern day poke world, where people can say stuff like that without bursting into laughter.
Blowing up mayor parts of the landscape and detroying natural habitats for a comparitively minor convenience? It would be harder to find a corporation that won't.
Oh my, May the tea snob.
Interesting bit of Astras towns way of life.
Says the fool who doesn't even know what steam needle is
Good old honey joke. Never gets old, as long as you find new people to try it on!
She literally nabbed a prototype. Naturally it's all features no basic QA and common sense.
Not all that new, she also did something similar back in the museum. But never this quick or clean before…
Ancestor bleed is getting worse.

I think Astra needs a Fighting type.
If she's unsealed, then she's not an ancient evil in a can... Anymore!
You're confusing "minor convenience" with "major profits".

For a moment I thought you meant Astra needed to pick up a secondary fighting typing.
When she said it was time to hit the gyms, this wasn´t what May and Brendon suspected.
I once saw a corp tear down an entire part of an apartment complex because it made accounting slightly easier. You´d be surprised.

I'm trying to come up with a joke where the puncline is "Gallade, but a girl". But that's not a punchline, I believe in Pokemon the term is "Evolutionary line".

Huh, Roselia Tea. Roselia seem kinda cute-and-harmless, like bunnies, and rabbit stew is a thing so I guess this is normal. Or maybe they are secretly evil, also like bunnies, like less "spend most of their time innocently twirling in circles in pleasant forest glens" but more "travel in gangs harassing combee for pollination and camouflaging themselves as leafy patches on low branches from which to slit necks using razor leafs..." . Or maybe they are not actually killed to make the tea? I could see them having their hands heads flowers clipped off for their own good, like with normal roses(?)?
They spent the whole update being transported by Briney, accross a massive water feature, in an open-water floatation device. This whole episode was them literally being shipped. I fear that it may be too late to protest... . I mean, Imma still do it, it is sorta my thing, "grr, grar, doom and gloom!", but *shrugs* at this point it feels like it is about time to throw in the towel and join in on the discussions over "What sort of moves can Brendan energy be used for?, and what is it strong or weak against? Like, sure, Geyser of Cursed Language seems to be the most frequently-used attack, but I suspect that it is just a normal-type move that is just common amongst the Latchkey Child egg group instead of being an actual Brendan-type move..." because Briney is at the helm and by all accounts the ship is already sailing.No Astra! Don't feed the shippers!
Ehh, I get the impression that May, being someone with an extremely poor history of being socialised, and having been exposed to it with noone else other than her pokemon to consult with(and she never thought to ask them), has actually been pretty effectively gaslit on the whole thing. It is just normal that sometimes people will get their facial features a little different some days... isn't it??? Brendan though has at least some training in humaning, I mean, he is still pretty deficient, obviously, having spent much of his youth doing the pokemon professor in the wilderness thing, and, well, there is the damning evidence of his choice to wear two pants simultaneously, but he does actually know that teenaged trees do not generally grow an extra half their height in a mere week, and actually has someone to gossip with over how sometimes Astro goes full anime...(should I go looking up how much space is left for brain when one's eyes are that big? I guess maybe her eyes are flat? They could be a film of smaller light-sensors, and with the chibi proportions she can probably have a brain-centre dedicated to generating visual distances using post-processing alone...), so Brendan may be a threat, but May may not...

This would never have occurred to me and I love it.
I was more worried about their electronics getting wrecked, but I suppose Water-types would encourage prevalent waterproofing.

They probably just shed them naturally.
Mysterious ice prison temple island is interesting.
It could be a prison for something vulnerable to ice that's kept frozen there rather than an ice type, not that anything comes to mind.

So the Ancestor was involved somehow in the sealing of the Regi's, if not Regigigas then at least the three that came to Hoenn. Given canon never goes into why they were sealed away, I'm interested to see where this is going.

Quoting a post from like three years ago:
This was in reference to Astra's evolution vision but I think the same thing applies here. I think Astra maintaining several psychic illusions all the time, along with mass telepathy, is pushing her psychic abilities a lot farther than a typical Ralts-line. I bet the Ancestor saw similar things and the purple stone is super charging that.
But this means that she'll twig into things that happened a long time ago, or are sufficiently powerful, like the Regi's or that fossil pokemon weirdness.
Roselia petals should be their hair equivalent.
So it is just like licking someone's head, the greasier the better.

Most of their artwork shows them surrounded by shed petals, so I'd bet it's just like owning a cat, except when you brew tea out of the shed detritus snobs by it instead of people being weirded out
Or she simply does her thinking in her eyes. Dual use organ for added efficiency. The rest of the skull is where she keeps the psychic equipment.
Ah look, Astras villages fire brigade!
They don't quite get what the job entails, but they sure are enthusiastic.
Might poison you if done wrongly
