Re: The Heights of Londo [OOC 2] - What? OOC is evolving!
Rana is from Hoenn, moved to Londo when she was young.

I guess knowledge Occult to see if Leah can work out if Rana's been cursed?

Re: The Heights of Londo [OOC 2] - What? OOC is evolving!
Leah does not like having attention called directly onto her, and Dai has already made her uncomfortable once before

Just be glad it's a relative stranger and not, say, Misru.

You're right.
I'd be a Lycanroc whistle.

If Dai is in the direction of the route out of the market, Leah would try to take a more circuitous route to try and go round her rather than go past her. Unless Alyssa insists on going past Dai, anyway.

I forget if we found out where Bibi was staying? If we did, I think Leah's gonna head there. If we didn't, she'll head back to Parkin's instead to talk to Rana. I'm not sure if tgva is wanting to have a bit more conversation on the way out of the market or not, mind.

Bibi's staying in the Knight's barracks I thought? Anyways, I thought she was at Parkin's place with Rana right now (as far as we know) so I thought we were heading back to Parkin's.
I'm fine with more conversation! I like talking! Talking is fun!

I'm pretty sure Bibi was at Parkin's when you last saw her.

Re: The Heights of Londo [OOC 2] - What? OOC is evolving!
Oh, uh, announcement, I guess! I know I decided on it a long time ago, but I don't know if I told y'all: Basically, in my Pokemon world, there's no eating Pokemon. Fishers fish fish because they carry hard-to-find berries, or other junk, like Pokemon sometimes carry in the games. Of course, it's physically possible, but it would be treated like cannibalism is in most real-world cultures.
What this means for leather in Londo is that it's not leather. It's woven cloth, perhaps with chunks of horn, or the shed scales of scaled Pokemon, and so on, and so forth.
This is 'cause I think that the idea of eating Pokemon is completely antithetical to the Pokemon setting, and having normal animals is just weird. So, yeah, no Pokemon harvesting.
ALSO! How much do y'all want me to interact with the Alyssa X Leah romance? I'm happy to read pages of them smooching, if that's what you want to do, but how much do you want me to have NPCs notice it/talk about it? I've been quite conservative with it so far in that, I haven't had them react a lot or often, because I'm unsure whether you want me to leave you to your romance or what.

Re: The Heights of Londo [OOC 2] - What? OOC is evolving!
I really like that idea! Like, it's supposed to be really horrifying that those Rockets harvest Slowpoketail even though it's a delicacy in that same game. I don't really know how that works! So I'm fine with mostly vegetarianism and not harming Pokemon for their products in Londo/in general.
As for Alyssa X Leah, I feel like as long as it feels natural I don't mind other people noticing it, though in my general experience it's the kind of thing that doesn't come up that much in real life. Like, people who are close will point it out but no one really draws attention to it. I don't mind stuff like them being called out for a public displays since that can be a bit much and definitely makes people uncomfortable, but them being together and looking happy or walking hand-in-hand doesn't feel like that big a thing. Maybe people who know them being like "oh that's nice" or "I'm happy for you" but unless they're really mean or don't like it for some reason, they probably wouldn't point it out over and over.
I also think it would be nice for them to have a moment together, since this is kind of new and they haven't technically finished a first date yet, and I really like doing the cute scenes with Alyssa and Leah. I love that part of the game and I like that it kind of just happened and Comissar and I ran with it. But I also don't want to derail your ideas for the story and plot and stuff since I really like those, too! They're why I love coming back to the game. So maybe a bit of a mix would be good? I leave a little bit of that pacing up to you as well.
I'm having a lot of fun with the game either way, so as long as we all agree to something I'm down with it.

Re: The Heights of Londo [OOC 2] - What? OOC is evolving!
Yup, not eating pokémon makes sense to me. They are, after all, sentient.
As for Alyssa/Leah, I'm with tgva in that I enjoy playing out that side of the characters. In part simply because the cute scenes are fun to write, but also because it gives an opportunity to explore Leah's psyche from a different angle. With NPC interactions over it, I think what there has been so far has felt pretty natural. I'm personally cool with having NPC's react both positively and negatively (though we've had none of the latter so far, I imagine it's most likely to start to happen if/when we encounter some of the more anti-foreigner people of Londo). Leah being Leah, her reaction to people calling attention to them is going to be very context dependent. If it's public and she's not expecting it, embarrassment and subject avoidance will probably be her reaction. If it comes up in conversation more naturally, she's probably still going to get quieter for a little bit before bouncing back. I think I've said it before a while back, but in case I didn't, I'll say it again, I don't mind Leah being put in situations she's uncomfortable with. It offers the chance for character growth for her, and I'm happy to trust that you'll set up and handle any such situations well.
Also, I am aware that you've got your own stuff you want to do, so I do appreciate you giving the space to let us play out Alyssa/Leah's romance, but do feel free to say 'ok, time to move on' if it's getting too much. It is your game, after all

Re: The Heights of Londo [OOC 2] - What? OOC is evolving!
Your opinions have been noted! Really, the only problem I have with it as a GM is when I feel like I'm not doing my job.
Also, I've decided to take some focus off of the story since seeing how the game has gone. The things I'd planned initially are still happening and so on, but since Leah and Alyssa aren't necessarily the type to leap into action, it won't be as prominent. Hope that's okay.

I'm okay with it as long as you're okay with it! I am okay with some pushing Alyssa into the plot, too, if need be. Though I do see what you mean, they both have some pretty internal problems that they're focused on.

Re: The Heights of Londo [OOC 2] - What? OOC is evolving!
I'm perfectly okay with it.
If nothing else, it means you'll go one town without meeting a maimed young woman. So you have that to look forward to!

I think Leah would like the idea of not having her arrival in a place be shortly followed by a maiming of a new acquaintance

Ah, no. She's referring to gathering electricity, and how it just hurt her. Not using her electricity powers in general.
