Activity Check
(April 29-May 5)

The end of the month has arrived, and that means it's time for activity check. To pass AC, players need to type up a short paragraph explaining what their character has spent the month doing. Please provide links alongside your paragraph so that moderators can easily verify that said activity exists. If you were accepted in the month of April or were on hiatus for at least two weeks, you need only check in by replying to this post. If you are currently on hiatus, you can fill out AC after returning or get another player to fill out your AC for you. <b>Player:</b> <b>Character:</b> <b>Activity:</b>

Player: James
Character: Pokey Minch
Activity: Everything is fubar.

Upon first getting a look at the glitching city, Pokey freaked out a little and kind of held back on looking around too much. When he eventually began investigating he met the mothers of Saito and Ohka and has taken up gardening as a hobby because of it to help tend the graves of Cyborg Xpress. He messed around at the mall with Kaine some as well, taking amusement in her shenanigans. Pokey would also report his findings on the parents memories to the rest of the group, which would lead to a long conversation with Kakyoin about everything that had come before. Along with Bonnie, he would also end up theorizing about the strings that were keeping Minami-Ku contained a few days later. He would also buy a new badass shirt with Asriel.

Then the fight with Sachiko's Witch came.

Pokey spared no time crossing the bank, trying to find Asriel and Kakyoin. The fight itself was a massive mess though they hung on through most of it until Solveig's song, at which point Pokey got beheaded by Lilith. Oops.

Pokey would emerge a few days later, feeling fully unforgivable though talking with Kakyoin and Abdul helped him a lot. Pokey would also help help Asriel drag Mettaton out to Nightmare hunt. Later he would also congratulate Kakyoin on finally giving up his leadership position, fully believing it was the right thing.

Character: Lucifer
Activity: Lucifer took a relatively lax approach to exploration, as he believed that this was a sign that Kagaku had, effectively, won Cyborg Xpress' territory from them. Nevertheless, he and Diarmuid found a picture that Lucifer would help report at the next meeting.

He had a great deal of fun during the boss fight. Once the song began, he knocked out some of those who had fallen under the sway and control of Solveig's song. He continued to participate in the battle, helping take down one of the barriers that the shadow of Miki would throw up.

He would also later argue with Dirk about getting the people here to cooperate as a group.

Character: Bro Strider
Activity: Bro wasted no time in making sure the town got the full Bro Strider experience.

Bro made sure to get to what was important and start trolling the shit out of the people in town immediately, getting into a fight with Butch almost immediately and annoying the fuck out of most people. He did, however, decide that Osomatsu was okay. This wouldn't change much when investigation of the town began in proper. He would be there to give nifty fashion advice and do the impossible: steal an outfit from a maid cafe with Karamatsu. This adventure led to a much greater discovery, though it would take Bro a while to learn the actual significance of the flyers that he and Karamatsu found.

Once he began to understand the meaning of it, he would try and convince Dave that this was none of their business. He would also, briefly, fuck about and fuel Gary Smith's paranoia for just a little bit. Bro would also get a better run down of the situation from Dirk Strider, a conversation that would end with Bro drawing a line in the sand about what he cares about and attempting to offer peace and help to Dirk.

This wouldn't really last. Bro would be unimpressed with Dirk's open lashing out over the mirrors about Sinewave. This would lead to a DM conversation of Bro chewing Dirk out, and Dirk seeming to acquiesce to Bro's point of view and asking Bro to help keep an eye on conceivable trouble spots among the Magi. Bro ended up flying high from this, getting an ego boost and believing that his authority would, in a sense, be absolute among these kids like it had been with Dave back home. He was wrong.

The first sign of trouble came when he decided to test Kakyoin, deciding to see what kind of person was hanging out around Dirk and if he could hold this over Dirk's head. It didn't go well as Kakyoin, being a magi here for at least a year, proceeded to kick Bro's ass and Dirk quickly came out to do damage control. Shaken and embarrassed by his failure, Bro proceeded to be a piece of shi all over Dirk's rallying cry. If he couldn't have control, then he'd try and fuck up anyone else's sense of control as badly as he could as well. This yet again crossed a line when he started interrogating Mettaton over the mirrors, driving Dirk to absolute fury and resulting in the two shittalking each other, with Bro quickly escalating it into openly threatening Dirk. While Bro wouldn't follow through on this threat, Bro's loss of control would continue to escalate when he found out Dirk had Lil Cal. This would lead to Bro breaking into Dirk's room to reclaim his best buddy, though in the end all he'd claim was a broken arm and more shattered pride.

All in all, it was not a good month for Bro, which means he intends to make sure May ain't a good month for a lot of people.
