The Implication of a Journal
17 years ago
General
Once more into the breeches, dear friends!
I'm planning on starting a new Diamond game. In my last trek through the game, I had played it with brains, but, remembering how awestruck I was with seeing a picture of Charmander in an issue of Nintendo Power when Red and Blue was being announced ages ago, made me wonder if I was really playing the game with the same wonder that I had before.
Of course, I'm a bit older, and now I would be quicker to sex said Charmander, but to be honest, I'd like to enjoy it as I had before. However, I now enjoy things by creating situations on how simple things in-game, such as how a TM works and what exists inside a Pokeball. So, I have decided that I will create a journal.
Every day, after playing Pokemon, I will write about the exploits in a more dramatic fashion. For instance, while most people just walk around for thirty minutes in the grass fighting Ratatta or Zigzagoon, I always entertained that my training would be more unique. While working under the premise that I'm playing the game normally(in game I'd still be grinding Pidgey after Pidgey), I'd describe such training in detail. If, for instance, one day all I could do was some training, then I'd describe it like this:
"My Torchic nearly fried my ass last time she tried to Ember a Wurmple, so I decided to train her. I set up several small, grass dummies and had her aim her shots carefully. Of course, she was out of energy before they were all torched, but I gave her a Pokeblock for her efforts. She seemed pleased, even though, after sneaking a taste of it myself, found it a bit dry.
The night crept up on us, so I made camp, but just as I went to light the fire, she popped up and ignited the tender. I was so proud... but then she begged for another Pokeblock, seeming dejected when I didn't have any left. In a fit, she kicked sand onto the fire, trying to snuff it. She didn't know Sand-Attack... but damned if she wasn't learning quickly.
Before she could condemn my 'ungrateful' self to the cold, I showered her in praise, calming her irrational rage with promises of more treats when I could make them. I had created a demon, but she was content with my humble offering and slept beside me near the fire with a chirp of pride that could stem only from showing me who the true master was in this relationship. At least she wouldn't torch the hand that held the blocks, right?
...Right?
Ah, fuck, I really need to get more blocks."
That's how they would look. I'd be playing Diamond (or my Leaf Green game, I can't decide), speaking as a real trainer would speak, if that trainer were me, 'cause they are. Things wouldn't happen exactly as they do in the game, but for creative flavor, I like it better that way. It would add a story to even the tedious parts of the game.
What do you all think? Would you be interested in such a thing? I think the posts would be daily, or at least, whenever I got a chance to play the game, and I'm still not going to stop writing my other stories. I just want to have some more fun with the game, 'sall.
Will it have sex? Perhaps. Though most people see 'putting yourself in the story' a little cliche' and a sure sign of a newbie author, it doesn't stop me from fantasizing, and it isn't as though I haven't written tales like that before (You'll note that the first chapter of MoaT never mentioned Zack's name, and was written in the first person. Hah... yeah, a porn fast will do that to ya).
If I feel comfortable writing about it, then I will. Either way, it should be fun! For those who don't frequent my Fur Affinity (They will be posted in the Journals section, not in the stories,) I'll make chapters out of several days. Maybe weekly! What do you think?

That sounds great! The fact that it's going to be in Journals is even better for me as I currently have 89 new messages, 85 of which are submssions. Needless to say I go through the comments and journals first

awesome, sounds like an idea that could go either way. But knowing you and your style it will defiantly be worth reading
