Screencap Adventure: Summon Night 2 (Part 22)
Further evidence that Phoenix Wright has consumed my life: in the past four days, I have drafted an outline for a casefic, a Phoenix Wright Sim Date game, and played around extensively on an RP journal. Keeping all these projects going when unviersity starts getting heavy is going to be fuuuun.
Also, I found out recently that I was wrong about Brawl's release date down here. It's not coming out in April, it's coming out in June. I am really glad I'm not itching for this game, or I would be so pissed off. (Largely because the person I primarily play Melee with is a bit of a tourneyfag; Falco, no items, Final Destination. It's not fun anymore if your opponent starts using spiking and beating your ass all over the field with practiced technique! THIS IS SMASH BROS, DAMNIT, EXPERIENCE AND TECHNICAL PROWESS HAVE NO PLACE HERE.)
Anyway. Adventure!

*streeetch* I JUST WONDER WHAT ORIN'S UP TO
Okay, for all the technophilia jokes, I have to admit that Orin is a very dedicated craftsman. You gotta admire him for that.
"You'd need at least 15 more levels!"
I've had people say stuff similar to that to me once or twice.
Even though, by the way, I've never actually seen him fence. Fight with swords, yeah, but it's never those thrust-parry shenanigans that comprise fencing.
"Hey! That's MY endearing character trait, pal!"
And so!
That silence seemed oddly threatening.
I love how Garrulon is always surprised. Orin goes out EVERY DAY, dude, why are you shocked?
Oh, what are the chances of that?
(But first.) Good morning, Tatiana! ^_^
oh shit run
Aww. Nobody saw it? But that battle was awesome!
Seriously. Giant Mech vs. Giant Monster. Nobody was looking at this?
THE CHIEF IS RIPPED
Sure. Why not. Never know when you might need one.
A matching set! :D
I really should try to keep track this time.
Ooooh! What's all this, then? :D
Anyway. To the forge!
Jeez. Look at all that Dur and Tec! It really mounts up after a while. Remember, we get this ON TOP of the boosts from the new weapon. It helps. :D
And now we have some shiny new weapons. <3
"MY HEART BLEEDS WITH PAIN
IGNORED BY EVERYONE
MY SOUL, IT WITHERS"
Garrulon: ...
(I can't believe I just made up that poem on the spot.)
Darn. Gonna need some Crystal before we can get the next Bracelet.
Power of friendship, gooooo!
lsdfhkds GIANT MECH BATTLE. HOW DID EVERYBODY MISS THIS?
"Sure, I'm the only one who PRACTICES Onmyoji...but still!"
Real Ultimate Power, eh? XD
GARRULON READS MY MIND :B
"Spirits!"
Ohhh. I see where he's going with this.
Well, that's extremely counterproductive.
"I have no idea what you're talking about or what it entails...but yes, I can do it!"
Awesome. Back to finding the Daemon Edges! Our ACTUAL quest!
BRING IT ON, BUNNY-O
As far as I can tell, there is absolutely no change aside from HP in the Rampage Rabbit. We've increased so far past him that he's an absolute cakewalk. :D
Barely gives worthwhile experience, too. Every little bit helps, though!
Oh, hey! Look who it is!
Er...considering he hasn't been there in about a week, that might be a bad idea. Even if he does have to go back and forth, back and forth over old ground like us.
Heh. Oh, Loki.
why you gotta be like that man
Rocky: Pay attention to me~
Alright, let's get this show on the road.
And off they go! At least Xeride is still around to help us.
Unless he switched into One-Line-NPC mode, of course.
KUUUUGA!
WARNING: OBLIGATORY ICE LEVEL AHEAD
Loki: *hophophop* Oh god what what did you see aaaagh
Hahaha. I've played that game.
"Hey, did you hear that?"
"Hear what?"
"Never mind, it's gone now."
...Repeat as many times as you can get away with it. :B
"If I had gloves, I would slap you so hard!"
D-D-D-D-D-DUEL!
Well, it is the obligatory ice level.
Anyway. Crates!
Ahhh, that's what we want to see.
Now okay, this ice? I don't like this ice. Once you step on this ice, you start sliding in whatever direction you were walking and you can't stop until you hit a wall or solid snow. There are some bastardly difficult sliding puzzles later that have this ice.
Also: palette swaps! Again!
How do you 'change the air', anyway? Really really fast-working pollution?
...what. The hell. Was that.
Evil Summoners? Well, at least we don't sing about frickin' sweet potatoes, buddy!
WHO COULD IT BEEEEEE~
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY, THANK YOU LOKI XD
*sigh* I'm not a big fan of ice puzzles.
Ahh. Safe ground.
Another palette swap. This guy hits hard and completely breaks through your defence with his charge attack, so watch out.
Aw, bugger. I gotta go back and get that stuff.
I have not seen a single new enemy yet. Enemy Design must've gotten lazy.
Awesome. Onwards!
ljsfdjsklfs
ow ow ow ow ow ow ahhhhhh ow ow ow ow
Ooookay, demons are scary. D:
I have no idea what Headaches do (haha, it's funny because I constantly get headaches), but Dark Demons can swing their scythe (which hurts) and shoot that tons-of-damage lightning balls (which also hurts). Exercise caution.
*sigh* Well, at least they're not caled 'Ice Wolf' and 'Ice Crab'.
Oooh. Fruit!
Om nom nom. :3
HURRR I DUNNO. YOU TELL ME, GUYS.
Surprisingly enough, this choice matters. LET ME KNOW, GUYS. :B
I'll do the character art for those two kids (yes, they're important) next update.
Oh, and if anyone is interested, the PWdressingroom RP I go by is 'go_gourdies'. WATCH ME ROLEPLAY AN AWKWARD ADOLESCENT BOY! Something that I've never experienced before, gosh howdy no sir
