PokéBattles: Sandy Version

Husbands to be, Cecil and Sean, both agreed to marry each other by each of their respective traditions. And while things went smoothly under Sean's traditions, it seems that Sean didn't quite comprehend what Cecil's traditions would entail...

Battle 136: We Are Gathered Here Today
Published: 12/10/24 Location: Classical Monster Preserve: Outlands
Player: Sentry Sean (0-0-3)

Mate...
Centaur Cecil: We had a wedding ceremony by your traditions. We agreed to have one by mine as well.
Yeah, but...
WILD CYCLOPSE appeared!
WILD CYCLOPSE wants to fight!
...Collecting a cyclopse molar?!
I thought the whole idea of these lands was guarding the classical monsters of myth and legend, mate?
Centaur Cecil: Indeed that is the purpose of these lands.
Centaur Cecil: And while exceptions are sometimes struck for population control, this cyclopse is an old roommate of mine, and volunteered to aid us in our quest for matrimony.
Then why is he attacking us, mate?
Centaur Cecil: I believe the term in your vernacular would be 'toothache.' He was never particularly good with pain.
Mate, you mean to tell me that to be considered married by your tradition we need to perform unlicensed dentistry on a Cyclopse who goes into a rage when in pain?!
Centaur Cecil: Indeed.
Centaur Cecil: And do not forget the condition. No allies. Just us.
...I remember it, mate. I just was picturing something less... Combaty... When you said collect a randomly selected item.
Centaur Cecil: Where would the quest be in something entirely devoid of combat? The entire point of the ritual is to prove we operate as a team.
Sure thing, mate. Myself, go.
CECIL sent out CECIL!
SEAN sent out SEAN!
CYCLOPSE sent out CYCLOPSE!
CYCLOPSE used MEAN LOOK!
SEAN and CECIL became trapped!
We weren't planning on running away, mate.
CECIL used GALLOP!
CECIL's speed greatly rose!
Mate, the eye looks like an obvious weak point. Try and shoot it. I'll guard you.
Centaur Cecil: I believe the word you're looking for is cover, but I concur that that makes a good plan.
SEAN used COVER!
SEAN covered CENTAUR with a TOWEL
...Not quite what I had in mind, mate, but maybe it will work like a parrot?
CYCLOPSE becomes convinced it's night!
Perfect. I guess. Night night, mate.
CYCLOPSE is confused!
CYCLOPSE hurt itself in its confusion!
...Maaate...
NARRATOR gave SEAN a good result!
I was hoping for sleep when you did the towel gag.
SEAN should be GRATEFUL NARRATOR didn't go with a HITCHHIKING gag!
I'll be good, mate.
SEAN used ARROW SHOT!
SEAN shot ARROW!
ARROW died!
CYCLOPSE used RAGE!
...But CYCLOPSE cannot see!
CYCLOPSE used BLIND RAGE instead!
Various SMALL ANIMALS fainted in the shockwaves!
It's largely ineffectual against CECIL and SEAN!
OK, mate... You're a bit larger than me... But that just makes your bags about the right height for my punches.
...Please tell NARRATOR it is not INTERPRETING what SEAN just declared CORRECTLY!
Mate, if I've accidentally made one large weak spot inaccessible, we'll just have to go for another.
...From what I know about this region and its ancient Greek theming, mate, I don't think cups are commonly used around here.
SEAN used PUNCHING BAGS!
Hit two times!
Critical hit!
CYCLOPSE has worse pain than TOOTHACHE now!
CYCLOPSE is paralyzed, it might not attack!
CYCLOPSE used COLLAPSE!
CYCLOPSE fell to the ground!
CECIL used EXTRACT!
CECIL performed UNLISCENSED but CONSENSUAL DENTISTRY on CYCLOPSE!
CECIL acquired MOLAR!
CYCLOPSE fainted!
Should we put a blanket over him, mate? Keep him warm until he wakes up?
Centaur Cecil: Under normal circumstances, I would agree that is good hospitality.
Mate?
Centaur Cecil: As I said earlier, I used to share a room with this gentleman. He has a tendency to drool in his sleep, and I am yet to determine a method of getting the stains of his saliva out from bedding. To say nothing of the smell.
What about his lower body, mate?
Centaur Cecil: If you insist, I won't prevent you from doing so.
SEAN used COVER!
SEAN covered BOTTOM of CYCLOPSE's CHITON with BLANKET!
CYCLOPSE used SNUGGLE!
CYCLOPSE snuggled up with SEAN's BLANKET in its faint induced sleep!
...Maaaate...
Centaur Cecil: I did attempt to warn you...
CYCLOSPE used DROOL!
CYCLOPSE coated SEAN's in THICK LAYER of DROOL!
...Mate, let's call it a gift to your old friend for his aid in our quest.
NIGHT used fall!
It's super effective!
SUN fainted!
MOON was fully revived!
The ETERNAL BATTLE between DAY and NIGHT rages on!
I... I'd rather not leave him, mate...
Centaur Cecil: If you wish to guard him while he slumbers, I will await his arousal with you. For we are now formally - per both our cultures - as you would put it... Mates.
...Mate...
SEAN used BLUSH!
It's super effective!
SEAN's PINK GLOW acts as their own GUARDLIGHT!
