Episode 5: Hot and Cold Flex Off!
Today, the Class is off to the Hot Springs! Until Monday, they’ll be on a school trip to Mount Lanakila, where they will spend two days and two nights at the mountain. Here, the school will learn about the native Snow Pokemon. However…
Kukui frowned in worry at the Mountain which was… suspiciously barren of snow in this area. The ground was green with grass, and it was swelteringly hot. “Sorry everyone! It seems like we’ve got unseasonable weather!” Exclaimed Kukui. “Still, there’s no worry here! Unload your things, get settled in and we’ll still tour the Ice Caves at 2pm! Until then, try and relax. Maybe if you want a nice Heatwave, try out the hot springs!”
No worries everyone, there's plenty to see. Lots of Pokemon still. Though, the people at the Hot Springs could need your help, getting the springs back to working order. The Owner could use people with technical help to look at the pipes, people with strong backs to get the springs in order and at 2pm everyone will go to the caves unless you're helping the Owner.
[This is an event post, and all roads lead to the final thread! Feel free to make your choice where to go! Players can be students and chaperones!]

Holy heck. And he only had a Riolu who was cowering behind his leg. "Don't worry little buddy, I ain't going to let you fight them. There's got to be some other way."
no subject
It's been about a week since he fell into Alola, and he still hasn't managed to find a Pokémon of his own. Not even an egg seems to stay for long in his presence, and while he hadn't been paying attention to it at first (because why would he want to bother with looking out for someone other than himself?), it feels now like they're avoiding him.
(And who could blame them? Dio has a weird aura about him.)
But he's still here, staring up at this pack of big insect strongmen with a stance that suggests he'd try to fight them but he hasn't committed to the idea just yet. He's extremely vulnerable as it stands, but he doesn't want to immediately resort to making himself look weak, and--
Hey wait.
"Peanut......... what? Are they dangerous?"
no subject
As they continued to flex, they were posing as they let out their cries as they spun as one. Triceps, biceps and pectoral muscles flexing, the alighted on the trio there.
Oh HO. Those gains, those muscles!
Instantly, they surrounded the trio, moving faster than humanly possible. Sizing up Dio, Yuume, and Mirio, the Buzzswole, began a ritualistic form of poses one by one. They would continue to pose, goading the trio and whoever else would show up, on.
no subject
Whatever Yuume is about to explain stops- the Buzzswole abruptly turn from their dance, and begin to surround them instead after all. Despite their speed, it becomes clear they aren't intending to harm them- after all...if they wanted, they would have done so already.
"A...Aaaah...it...seems like they're performing some sort of ritual, but just what it is...mnh..."
Yuume, rather frankly, is feeling a bit too uncomfortable to even give it a shot right now- maybe an arm muscle twitches as she draws in on herself. That's about as flex as it's getting up in Yuume's arms.
no subject
I guess they want them to flex so...
Taking a deep breath, Mirio struck a pose. It was the most heroic, dynamic flex pose that he had seen All Might strike in ages. It was the most heroic, dynamic flex pose he managed to remember. It looked really goddamn cool -- if only for the fact that any All Might fan could see the imperfections in his form. It was really off. His leg was too far out, his tensing of the muscles was all off, and the smile wasn't quite right, with the crows feet around his wide smile not quite THERE.
"I AM HERE!"
one threadjacking idiot ahoy, please charge ahead after this, Dio
"Shit, these things are bigger than Colossus, and he's freakin' huge!" she said as she slipped through the Ultra Hole, shedding her jacket as she did. "Crap, it's hot in here..."
Though she saw Mirio's flex, and she had to clap. Pretty good attempt, even if his stance was a bit off. She's had a lot of experience with flexing guys, okay?
cough cough Gambit cough cough--and Colossus too!The Buzzswole noticed her too, though--even as Stompy blundered into her leg and righted himself.
"Uh, guess this is bad, huh?"
yeehaws quietly
Dio gives Mirio plenty of space to do... whatever he's doing over there (yeah? yeah you're here?? we can all see that????), and he spares Renee a passing glance when she chimes in, but otherwise he stares tensely at the group surrounding them. Great, he's been boxed in by idiots, with idiots. All of this flexing is rather brutish and ridiculous; he can't make himself do something so humiliating if he tried.
Of course, even if Mirio's flex isn't perfect, it looks like it might've attracted some attention if only because he's appealing to these things; and dangerous or otherwise, these creatures resemble the type of person who can get violent if they aren't humoured enough, at least to him.
But he's, like, twelve? He can box and generally fight pretty good but these things are big and he is twelve. A flex isn't gonna cut it. He realises this perhaps a quarter-way into Trying to mirror one of the Buzzswole and changes his plan accordingly to something maybe more defensive-stance-like, but he was already kind of going for the other thing and now he just looks like he chickened out at the last second but ah shit gotta keep up appearances and look like he's trying--
The end result is... whatever the hell this is. Whatever it is, it's struck with increasingly-refined intent and exudes an oddly... menacing aura.
Re: yeehaws quietly
However they're quite impressed by the flexing of Dio and Mirio, even if one of them critiques Mirio's flexing a little, and a couple of them turn towards Renee and pose in a bodybuilders stance, arms over their heads in a sort of "flex at me bro" manner.
C'mon everyone, you can do better than that!
yeehaws real smooth,
The burst is continuing. Yuume is pretty sure that for a minute she sees space. Maybe she actually did. Vaguely, she registers that the buzzwole, however, are actually taking to whatever it is that Dio and Mirio are doing.
Ah.
That's what they want.
Yuume snaps back to consciousness and practically blows steam. Her fists clench, and the Buzzwole better back off if they expect to see anything. "Saaah, if that's what it takes then..!" she shouts, throwing her tank top off in a relatively smooth motion. With the bikini top left behind, the rest of her physique can't possibly be missed- and Yuume works out extensively for her training.
"VERY WELL..!"
Yeehaws a lot
Gloves are off.
And the shirt.
And maybe his pants too, depending on how fast Mirio can disrobe.
/rolls a D6 for that.
That's a crit.
"POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"
Don't worry ladies, he's making it so that you don't see his peepee.
Yeehaws to the left
Raising her chin, she looks at the Ultra Beast. "'Ey!"
Yeah, she's sexy and she knows it, hip-waggling right up to that one, arching her arms over her head and flexing her biceps, inhaling deeply to just get that much more bulk in her chest. She's learned from the best, after all.
"Yeah, you like that, don't you?" Forgive her a bit of bravado, she's gotta keep up with Tequila over there.
also yeehaws to the left
yuume's his moooooooom i mean--But really, she's just the gift that keeps on giving... She even comes with Built-In Asskicking Features. Incredible! This all still feels a little ridiculous, especially coming from someone as serious as her, but at least? she's having fun??
And then Mirio happens and aaaaaauuuuhhh let's move over to Renoh and she's doing it too.
God what's going on.
"Is... is this how we're playing now..."
He squeaks, but. Fine.
Then play he shall.
BOSS BATTLE
Then the ash-covered Buzzswole steps forward. And rolls /3D6.
The effect is like Like a goddamn nuclear blast of pure raw POWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Terry Crews eat your heart out.
no subject
Shit.
Well this is all getting intense. Yuume kicks her shirt toward Mirio- "There are children present~!" she 'sings', with the sort of tone that implies she'd rather he not be nude as well. With yet another kick forward, she releases her Audino-
"Audino! Join in!" she commands, making another pose. Yuume's ain't half bad, considering the chain of actions that went into it. Audino...
"A- AUDINO!" Audino does her best. But Audino is, ultimately, an Audino, even if the pose Technically matches.
no subject
"Sorry about that, I guess my usual work hazard happened," laughed Mirio, putting on the pants but not the shirt. "As it stands, there's plenty of work to be done!"
And he struck a pose. "There's much to do, and less time to do it in!"
no subject
Clapping her hands, she's working in a circle around the Buzzswole in front of her. "Come on, Stompy, you can do it!" The Phanpy...doesn't look too certain about that, but he does try to stomp his feet and work his trunk in tandem with his Trainer...
no subject
Dio is beginning to have second thoughts about all of this though, actually! This is starting to get extremely intense, and his self-consciousness is gnawing more steadily now.
He's starting to potato a little bit, probably. Please just leave him alone, he's already seen so much today.
no subject
CRITICAL HIT.
You need to like, recover from that everyone.
no subject
She failed to comprehend the sheer power of a buzzswole boss though.
Yuume is so stunned, she trips over her Audino, and immediately finds herself choking on sand.
"G- OH!"
The Boss thrusts above her.
Yuume is astral projecting again.
no subject
Almost.
This is a flex off after all.
no subject
She made a face at the Buzzswole, too. "Ya gonna have to do better'n that to get me down, brotherrr!"
no subject
As he watches his caretaker collapse from the flexing energy of the mosquito men, Dio's hands clench into fists. He steadies his stance, steeling himself to face the Buzzswole with renewed vigor. Yuume is powerful, and even she fell--!!
"You!" he directs, staring fire down at the culprit. "You'll pay for what you've done!"
no subject
The powerful flexing has quite frankly intimidated King Buzzswole from all comers. Except the one he downed.
But he's not going to go down without a fight.
One last powerful flex.
One last amazing flex for the ages.
Time to summon up all of his strength...! And nope. He had nothing left.
no subject
Can do that.
Slowly, she stands- pulling herself to her feet, determined. Maybe still a bit dazed from all the flexing nonsense around her.
But she manages One Last Stance.
"Is that....All you have left then..?"
no subject
And Mirio threw into a powerful POSE that would rock the field incredibly.
when I walk in the spot, this is what I see
