Journal Entries, Session 2

[REDACTED FOR BEREVITY]

22:00 - Howls have gotten louder. Heard the sound of Harper panicking nextdoor. I head out to the hallway (appearance same as addendum) and see what's wrong; Recreo does the same. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

22:05 - Seems that Harper has a bad reaction with a Pokemon that looks like Poochyena (see addendum for appearance). Recreo investigates while I accompany Harper to make sure she's alright. We leave her room (see addendum for appearance), I recommend we head somewhere else. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

22:10 - Harper chooses to get water from the kitchen. I accompany her (see addendum for appearance), Master Cyrus joins us. Karina and Terence are asleep; Karina is hugging one of the Castform. Harper gets herself water and takes some sips. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

22:15 - Loud noise in the direction of the bedrooms. Harper runs out, I follow. Hallway appearance same as addendum. Recreo discusses what he learned; there is now a Mighthyena evolution. Harper reacts poorly. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

22:16 - The Mighthyena evolution (see addendum for appearance) breaks the window down and heads into Harper's room by using Stone Edge. Two Poochyena follow. Recreo sends out that strange Pokemon that he used to fight Rattlerail. See addendum for play-by-play of resulting battle. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

22:18 - Harper has frozen. At my request, Terence retrieves Harper's water. She drinks it, slowly. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

22:25 - Harper calmed down enough for me to request her help with Type: Null. I lead her in to my room and release them from their Poke Ball. I explain how I found them. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

22:28 - Harper helps me reassureexplain to Type: Null what the issue with my broken arm is. Harper then pets Type: Null, at my assurance. I thank Harper for her discretion with Type: Null. She calls me brave for showing them to her. Harper appeared to be debating something as I explained how I was extending my trust in her for showing them Type: Null. It seems the groundwork has been laid, at least with her. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

22:30 - I offer my services as a therapist to Harper. She leaves, her 'Espeon' follows after giving me a look that is best described as guilty. PerhapsThe groundwork has been laid for both of them. I will need to nurture this. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

07:30 - We've returned to Fortree City. Maudie informs us through the intercom that people knocked on the door of the RARAT. I head outside, meet Recreo. Appearance of hallway same as addendum. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

07:35 - Recreo and I discuss what happened with Harper last night. He reveals he caught two of the Poochyena. We decide it's best to do some sort of exposure therapy with Harper. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

07:40 - We meet Meenah Salazar and Hotono Haraguchi outside and invite them in. See addendum for appearance descriptions. They're merchants and survived the calamity. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

07:50 - We lead Meenah and Hotono into the control room (appearance same as addendum). We learn that Mauville exploded after I inquire about Gym Leader Watson. Coat black. Hands gloved in cloth.

08:00 - The intercoms broadcast something. See addendum for what they said. Discussed the Almighty Sinnoh--ancient terms for Dialga, Palkia, and some third god, along with the '22 sacred beasts'. Unsure what this means. Learn from Meenah and Hotono that this is a regular occurrence throughout the region. Coat black. Hands gloved in cloth.

08:10 - We learn that there are people living in Dewford Town--they're apparently reclusive. Harper got very interested at the mention of Dewford--asked Meenah and Hotono about a man of a certain height that looks like her. Assumingly a lost relative or friend?. Regardless, someone that's important to her, based on her reaction. They didn't know of him, and instead talked in length about this man from the town that they dislike, and how the town (which they described as now a trailer park) is not something they're allowed to explore. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

08:20 - We learn that Norman is alive and turning Littleroot into a sanctuary and that something that is neither human or Pokemon is at Victory Road. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

08:25 - Sootopolis is dry now, oil seeping from it. May is alive, and traveling with someone from Team Magma. We also learn that Hotono has a history with Team Magma. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

08:30 - We learn that Sidney is dead, but Phoebe is alive. She's been taking bodies to Mt. Pyre to lay them to rest. We also learn that Mt. Chimney is frozen over. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

08:35 - Hotono asks if we came accross any other survivors. Recreo goes to retrieve the Magma Grunts, and I break it to her that they were members of Team Magma. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

08:39 - Recreo returns with Terence and Karina. They know Hotono, and state that 'Maxie was mildly disappointed when she left'. Hotono states that she respects his motives, but not his execution. It is likely that Maxie was the leader of Team Magma. I can also assume that Hotono was a member of Team Magma that defected. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

08:41 - There were two organizations in Hoenn at the same time--the other one was 'Team Aqua'. According to Recreo, remnants of Aqua are still active as pirates. He was told by Rowan to keep an eye out for them. I may need to be even more careful around Recreo, if he's investigating organizations that go against the societal norm. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

08:43 - Hotono releases a Mighthyena (Dark type). Harper runs in to Maudie's room. I follow. See addendum for appearance. She's panicking. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

08:53 - Harper has calmed down enough. I talk her through her feelings. Based on her fears and thoughts of members of the Poochyena line going for her throat, she likely went through something traumatic with the line. I bring up the option of helping her heal; this sort of consistent distraction is unnecessary. She needs to think it through. I reminded her that I'm here to help with her healing, whenever she's ready. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.

09:00 - Return to control room (appearance same as addendum). Harper follows after Hotono and Meenah bring up a potential mission that they need us to complete. There's a vibrating stone pyramid on Route 120 that we are to investigate. Hotono will come help. Coat black, hands gloved in cloth.
