Arc: Blasts From The Past - Tumblr Posts

I don't feel good. This time, it has nothing to do with those chocolate toast things.

There's an old lady outside s c r e e c h i n g at her grandkids and their pokémon. The words she's using are...

Unpleasant.

I... Can't.

I just...

I want to...

I need to go someplace without outside noise. Like Dad's underground lab. If I don't, I think I'm going to...

- Colanda Achroma

Are you ok? Have you gotten to the lab?

Currently sitting in the lab with everyone on my team besides Kyurem. I'm thankful for its soundproof walls.

Sent Otus to retrieve a journal I recently started writing in. Some of my current thoughts are better off in there.

- Colanda Achroma

Journal acquired.

Kyurem's moving around, judging by the heavy thumps I'm hearing from down here...

Why did you hit record?

Why did you post this?

What.

Is wrong.

With you?

- Colress Achroma

---[Post Edit] I apologize for my daughter's mental state being on full display. That first post in which Landa reacts to the situation outdoors should have been marked as being posted by a Rotom. It shouldn't have even been posted.

I have possession-proofed Landa's phone until further notice. This also means I currently have access to her Rotumblr account.

For those wondering: the irate old woman was removed from the area by authorities. Her grandchildren have been handed off to their parents.

That is that. Thank goodness.

- Colress Achroma

//Hey. Remember when I said Colress would only show up in special circumstances?

//This is that!

Even as a man who keeps his ideals separate from his truth, I'm appalled by that woman's behavior. What she screamed at her own grandchildren was not unlike what I've heard from the foul mouth of a man I once thought I knew...

Hey, Mr. Achroma. How's Landa?

- Chili

She's awake, and having breakfast. Movements are small and quiet- To the point I was unaware she was in the kitchen.

Otus and Mocha are trailing her wherever she goes. Kyurem is speaking with her via telepathy. Her other pokémon are giving her space.

The household has achieved some level of peace. I predict Landa will fully recover by later today or early tomorrow. She bounces back quickly, as you may know!

- Colress Achroma

I have only now noticed my daughter's blog's tagline.

My science experiments are not "shenanigans"! They benefit humanity in ways she does not yet understand!

The experiments she allows to progress beyond the planning stages anyway...

- Colress Achroma

I've taken stock of what we've received via Pelipper Mail... And I believe I've found a sheath the size and shape of an Absol's scythe?

Additionally, there is a note attached to one of the fruit juice jars. The handwriting is... Familiar, and seems to have been scribbled in a hurry...?

- Colress Achroma

//The note will be transcribed tomorrow.

Hmm...

This is... Mildly concerning, don't you think?

- Colress Achroma

For those who can't see alt text on photos:

"NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, ATTEMPT TO LEAVE THE MULTIVERSE WITH THE REBORN AGAIN, PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING."

That is concerning, where did you find it?

Answered here:

- Colress Achroma

I don't know how I recognize that handwriting...

I just...

Hm...

- Colress Achroma

What was that doing with the juice, it doesn't seem related. Anyway, be careful, I guess?

I believe its only connection is having come with the rest of the things those Pelipper delivered.

And yes, of course! I am the very soul of caution!

- Colress Achroma

---[Post Edit] Doubt.

- Colanda Achroma

I suppose I'll leave you to your account, now.

Hi... Rotumblr. Did I miss anything while I was... You know?

The mysterious note Dad got is in Unown. In my universe, at least, it's a near extinct written language.

having a bad feeling for what this could mean...

- Colanda Achroma

❔How did they obtain their first Pokémon? Was it a gift? Did they catch it themself? Did it willingly come along with them?

There's breeders by Striaton City who distribute monkey starters to the locals. We live nowhere by Striaton, but they still gave Dad an egg to gift to me. That egg was Otus, my Pansear. He hatched for me around midnight about eight years ago.

As you may know, newborn pokémon often imprint on the first living being they see. Dad wanted to give Otus a physical exam, which meant he had to be temporarily separated from me.

Right after the exam, Otus decided to... Uh...

Dad painfully learned Otus inherited fire punch from his parents.

...

...Yeah.

...i wish dad would seek therapy for his pyrophobia...

- Colanda Achroma

Note to Self: don't keep scientific secrets.

Dad is making me translate anything he can find written in Unown.

let me sleep aaaaaaaaaaa-

- Colanda Achroma

Thinking about my time in the Sinnoh region. I attended a festival and played tons of their target practice game. You throw regular poké balls at Drifloon balloons, and try to make combos with each throw.

Why did their prizes have to be random? I came away with so much junk. 25 leaden balls, 5 great balls, 15 sticky globs, 75 balls of mud.

In case you think I'm bad at the game (Or unlucky since, you know, random prizes, ugh), my high score was 585,800. Know what I got for that?

Mud.

All I wanted were wing balls.

Why is one of the potential prizes for a score like mine mud?!

...

[S C R E A M S]

- Colanda Achroma

Did you eventually win any wing balls?

Yeah. Like one or two games after I achieved my high score.

I wish I could regain the two and half hours I wasted there. I hate the game, and I hate Taggart the Fourth (Or whatever number it was) for being more in love with "tradition" than his poor wife.

- Colanda Achroma

Okay, yeah.

That... Last picture of the new Unown message wasn't good. I was tired, half the message somehow got swallowed, and I had to use a Rotumblr filter since it was blending into the background.

Oof.

- Colanda Achroma

Hi. Somebody here who got kicked from a universe she used to live in for the crime of dying and (If my dad's recent research and those notes we're getting are to be believed) revisiting it.

Apparently my dad has made an Arceus (Or worse, the Deity that hides behind its thousand arms) mad? But he's permitted to go and risk revealing the existence of our multiverse? Neither of us remember taking any trip(s?) together...
