Mewtwo gawked at Jenny's eruption in utter disbelief.  One of the wardens beside him muttered under his breath and then looked at him. "You can't do illusions?"

Mewtwo shook his head. "I can only influence the mind and make them think that they are seeing something that is not there, but as far as I have been able to determine, I have been unable to produce a proper illusion."

"Make sure you tell them that when you testify," the warden nodded.  "Might be able to bus someone in from the Institute if they want a demonstration."  He busied himself with adjusting the straps on the muzzle.  "I know it's itching you, but try not to undo it, okay?  Don't want you getting into trouble, not in court, here.  Bailiff's got tazers, and you acting up won't look real good for the defense."

Mewtwo nodded slowly.  Jenny's outbursts have been troubling, but she has not yet targeted him or his family with her vitriol, so he hasn't had trouble with maintaining his cool.  Should she start attacking his family, things may become difficult.

Had a long weekend.  Not necessarily tiring, but at one point a bit draining, as I needed to deal with a problem that cropped up.  Hung out, played games, and then spent far too much time than necessary obsessing over a logo and how it reminded me of something, but I couldn't figure out what.

Didn't get anything done like I had originally planned.

Well, tomorrow starts a new week.

I can't think of any weapons I would like to see off-hand.  Though, I do have a couple suits of armor that I'd like to see...

I, personally, like to sometimes ship characters with certain traits.  For example, I am rather fond of shipping a slightly-unhinged character with a more-or-less sane character (even though both characters could display various traits of mental illness to varying degrees).  I feel that it makes for an interesting dynamic, in which the insane character learns from the character better ways on how to cope, while the sane character is drawn into the insane character's world.  They learn new things about themselves from each other.

It's almost a Joker/Batman dynamic, somewhat.  A tamer variation, and can sometimes lead to the sane character wondering about their own sanity when faced with the insane character's symptoms, particularly if they see themselves in those symptoms.

Random question: Who would you ship?

One or two of my characters have been victim to the whims of other players.  Granted, my characters were already on decent terms with their soon-to-be significant others, but it wasn't very obvious that they had anything going on between them.  After a while, situations continually arose in which my characters and the other characters were paired off and lone and had to work together to get out of whatever situation they were in.  Eventually, they grew closer and closer, but at least one character-pairing by proxy didn't work out because I simply didn't have any connection with the other player.

It all just came down to other people saying, "you two are so cute together!"

I try not to participate in such forced ships, and have on occasion inserted one of my characters into a situation because I could tell that the other players were trying to pair off two other players against their wishes.  So, I'd drop on to foil them.  At least once, I was PMed and requested to step in.

It's fine to have a relationship blossom on its own.  But, to force a ship can get irritating.

Interesting that his normal appearance has purple eyes. His Y form has red eyes, and his X form has blue eyes. I wonder if there's anything that could explain this. Though I haven't noticed with any other pokemon eye colors changing during evolution.

Also, more X form fan art has been appearing.

Simple explanation: Eye color coincides with version color.

(Here we go, then...

-During the attack on Vermilion City, Mewtwo was in Fuchsia
-Pokemon Center records show that he stayed there overnight and most of the following day
-When Mewtwo had arrived, most of the clones were dealing with collateral damage
-He located Carr and fought, eventually driving Carr through a building
-Police were already on the scene and had arrested Quickie, who was throwing Tarot Skitty into the fray
-Eventually, after having to be taken down by Zekrom, Mewtwo finally surrendered and was arrested

-Additional information regarding Fuchsia:

-The sinkhole was present prior to Mewtwo causing the explosion
-Witnesses state seeing a Steelix around the sinkhole
-Witnesses state seeing Mewtwo approach Wily calmly
-The Disable caused a shockwave that leveled the surrounding block and threw both Wily and Mewtwo several feet from its epicenter
-Wily showed only minor injuries and did not report the explosion
-Mewtwo was seen by witnesses resting outside before finally going inside the Pokemon Center
-He stayed there overnight

-Prior to the explosion, witnesses had seen Mewtwo outside of Wily's room and generally prowling around

Sorry that's a bit disjointed, but it's as I could remember it.  That should do the trick for now.)

(Again, Pokemon Center records would show that after that explosion in Fuchsia, Mewtwo was utterly exhausted with a wicked headache.)

(Already found a contradiction.  Mewtwo used both hands. But, only Mewtwo and Wily would know that.)

(As for Pokemon Center records, Mewtwo ended up utterly exhausted and already fighting off an illness from earlier.  So, the records would definitely note that he spent some time resting afterward.)

Maya looked to Phoenix.  "Look for contradictions."

"And press everything," Quickie muttered.

Unnoticed by the wardens, Mewtwo scratched at the muzzle some more, loosening the straps.  He tugged at the cuffs and then brought his attention back to the courtroom.

Well, I figured out how to get out of that quandary I was in earlier.  Just dropped the "something came up" line and got out of having to go over to Mammaw's.  Something did indeed come up, and I have company over.  Thus, I simply was unavailable this weekend.

My hair is coarse and thick and it poofs.  It's never soft.  It feels like dog hair.

I get frizz, but since my hair is short, it just manifests as poof.

Can't wait to start writing in some LOOOOOOOOOVE~

Particularly after this whole plotline is over and done with, there will need to be some stress-relieving!

Which brings me to another question...  Your thoughts on characters having off-screen sex?  Do they act differently afterward?  Do the other characters pick up on it?  Have you been in campaigns in which you could sense a change in other characters?  Could you tell if other characters were acting differently, could you sense the chemistry between them?

Have you ever wanted to get two other characters together?  I've encountered this before, in which other players wanted two characters to get together.  If the group needs to split up, those characters are paired.  Other players will often force those characters to room together, or influence scenarios in which those two characters are alone together.
