Description Yeah, it's been quite a while since I submitted something to dA. And I was supposed to finish The Three Caballeros request by today. Guess what? I didn't...

So... this is what happened: had a contract with the Aracuan Bird (his only way to get to me here in Brazil, giving that such character was found on the Brazilian jungle by Donald Duck.). The contract stated that if I didn't finish my request by June 30th, the clown would pay me a visit.

So, what's the first thing that happened to me in the morning? I was tied to my bed, and somehow couldn't use any of the spells my Shadow self is capable of, with Folião (as the bird is called in the Brazilian comics of him) staring at me, holding a feather on his hand.

What exactly happened after that scene I'll leave to your imagination.

This is the color version. I'm thinking on doing a shaded one as well.

Heh, I'm sure Neo wouldn't approve that, but I totally agree.

(Heheh, it's a small homage for a friend of mine, . I'd have put that on my sig if I didn't have only 3 characters left to use... I'm lucky I could put all four links there.

The 3 first are his characters, while Ace is mine. He recently joined the team of explorers. )

Hope luck will be on your side for taking care of Nestor. Oh and be on the lookout for the footage of him getting Zé. Not that I don't trust the crow to fully complete his part or anything.

(I knew that Etch, Edge and Flyn sounded/looked familiar. Being the "XIIIthEnigma" just made randomly coming across "Team 13" a bit odd. Perhaps they'll encounter Team Victory someday.)

Heh, thank you, and I will. Who knows, maybe I'll help him with that.

(I don't think I've seen the other members of Team Victory... I can safely say Victini is one of them, if not the leader.

On a side note, I don't know why their team is called that. Maybe I should ask him. )

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-05 17:10:59 +0000 UTC]

That'll be an interesting plan to see. Take on Zé with Nestor and then go after the very same crow you just helped. You plan on somehow getting Zé to help with Nestor as well? I honestly have no idea how you'll manage to escape when they decide to turn against you.

(Victini is where the team name came from. I consider myself the leader even though I have no idea which Pokémon I'd be/make myself. If you've been to the Wigglytuff guild then you already know Chatot. Archen is one of those ones that I haven't figured out yet. At least you can be happy that those two haven't found out about what happened to Victini...Yet.
It'd be interesting to find out where the name came from.)

Now that I think about it... I'm not even sure I'd manage to get away. Heck, with my luck, first thing in the morning is myself tied up again, with two birds taking advantage of me instead of one.

(Heh, I remembered that at PokéFarm there are some made-up formes and event Pokémon. Some of these forms are based on members of Organization XIII.

Yes, I know Chatot. Honestly someone who deserves getting it for taking off 90% of any cash reward you receive. But I'm not drawing that, not just yet.

I'll ask him once he's online again. He's on a trip right now.)

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-05 17:48:37 +0000 UTC]

You better hope they leave you alone that long. If you actually make it back here you'd have the Aracuan and I to keep them away...Unless you want those two to get their fair revenge that is.

(Really? Never checked out this PokéFarm thing before. Might take a look at it in a bit.
"Not just yet"? Considering what you said about tickling birds I thought Chatot would've been somewhat off your radar. Good to know I was wrong. I'm still going through some places in Explorers of Sky so he'll be another that I really look forward too.
Ah. Better be a good explanation. (Un)Lucky XIII is my thing. )

Well, that's something we'll have to wait and see. Perhaps feel on my case.

(You're practically forcing me to draw two other birds getting it. But I guess anthropomorphic birds are OK. Their feet look ticklish enough to me.

I guess my problem is with "real-life-like" birds, which don't usually have "attractive" feet. But meh, it could be that I'm changing my preferences the more I have to deal with such feathered characters. )

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-05 18:39:30 +0000 UTC]

Be careful if you decide to have me allow them access to you. I might have some "supplies" prepared for them when the time comes.

("Force" is such an accurate word. Donald, José, Panchito, the Aracuan, Zé, Nestor and now Chatot...I blame your ability to help brings ideas for them out.
I guess the design is why I started with the Caballeros and those around/related to them. Probably just from dealing with all of them. Accepting several other bird Pokémon requests and 7 birds in a row from me could do that. You also have Archeops on your list so perhaps I should complete the evolution chain, the members of Team Victory and my 8th avian/bird requests by throwing Archen into the mix. As if you don't have enough work already. )

"Oh you"? Hold on a second. *Plays cheap laugh track* Seriously..."Oh you"? Is this a sitcom now?

(I know it's just revenge for what I've put you through but...I guess I should be glad I haven't picked one to represent me yet. I might be foolish enough to look for one though...600 or so possibilities aren't THAT many.
There are other perfectly fine reasons to go after the other two if I should fail. Chatot needs to be taught a lesson for his ways...He takes 90% of the rewards so we'll take 90% of his sanity. Archen I believe is known as the "First Bird" Pokémon so he must be tickled for science!)

...Could you please stop making fun of me and my poor choice of words?

(649 to be more exact, not counting different formes of specific Pokémon. And those indeed are perfectly fine reasons to go after them. Though I believe it would be better if I could go after the entire team at once. )

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-05 19:43:53 +0000 UTC]

Where's the fun in that? I'm staying to wait for the Aracuan and you're conversing with me instead of going after a crow. Don't want to be made fun of? Go take care of business.

(I did 600 as an estimation because I know there Pokémon where I'd just say "Haha no way". I skimmed through the National Dex and I think it'd be easier to just consider me the Victini...At least in the Mystery Dungeon world. He's the only Pokémon I collect and practically loved the moment I saw him. Plus it'll help get more Victini tickle pics as well as make it easier for me to get revenges and burn you for your actions. It might change but no promises. Sorry if it isn't the best reasoning. I've always been bad at "create your own character" kind of things. I went through EoS as Piplup with Chimchar just to emulate the specials so I can't go off of that either.)

Alright then. I'll prepare myself for the trip to Rio de Janeiro. It's gonna be a long one.

(As for Gligar, I chose it because: 1-Scorpions that can fly are awesome; 2-I happen to like blue and red, and purple is a mix of the both; 3-I'm Scorpio, so the animal symbol is a scorpion; 4-I liked the anime's Gligar.

At least Fire's not my weakness. )

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-05 20:36:40 +0000 UTC]

Considering the world we're in...Rio is probably just a commercial break away. Besides...You're going to tickle a crow and possibly a parrot...How many supplies do you need to bring?

(You lucked out with the perfect choice. I've only watched the anime when it started with the first 151 and I'm slowly getting caught up with the current story. Limited choices to base from the show and I've only played Platinum, Black/White and Explorers of Sky so I'm limited there as well. Guess I'm going with Victini because...Honestly I don't know. Again with the instant unexplainable attraction...Maybe my "perfect" Pokémon will show up in Gen 13.

Fire and Flying aren't your strengths either. I just need to hope you don't have any offensive Ground moves...Or Dark...Or Rock...Well we're screwed. You could learn/use Rock moves to destroy all three of us while we can't get any of your weaknesses...Say...How uh...How'd you like to forget this conversation and join the team? We do only have three members. Heh heh...

JBtheShadow In reply to XIIIthEnigma [2011-07-05 21:28:41 +0000 UTC]

Oh, don't worry about that. I already got my "Toolbox" ready, and I'll use some magic to aid me. My friend taught me a very neat restraining spell not too long ago.

(Well, I only watched a couple of episodes on the internet, so you're probably ahead of me. Well, Victini seems like a good "substitute" until you find the perfect one, though it will take a while until they get to Gen 13.

I'm afraid joining the team wouldn't stop me from trying to get you though... perhaps it would delay things a little, but it's definitely something I'd have to think about...)

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-05 21:52:14 +0000 UTC]

You're filled with surprises aren't you? I'll just assume you need to be focused for the spell to work and that's why you didn't stop the Aracuan.

(I've seen like 4 of the newer/current episodes. Pretty much from Gym 2 to a bit before Gym 3. I've still missed a fair amount from what I can tell. With how overpowered Victini was for me in Black/White he better be a good fit for the time being.

"Trying" to get me? There is no "trying" in this business. You go for it or your don't. I won't be alerting the other two so what do you have to lose? On that note I'm intrigued and a bit terrified to find out what you'd have set for us. Keep this up and I'll start hunting you down to get everything down. You got a bit over 7 days for Victory or any of the other birds...Don't let my excitement down now you Super-Effective Scorpion.

JBtheShadow In reply to XIIIthEnigma [2011-07-05 22:07:15 +0000 UTC]

Yes. And I do lose concentration rather easily when there's somebody by my side trying to be a clown just like him.

("Excitement"? You're excited, even though you could end up being the one chosen to get it next? )

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-05 22:26:19 +0000 UTC]

Then you'll really need some good luck out there. Not sure who's the bigger clown...The Aracuan, that poor manipulative parrot or the crow that puts up with him.

(Heh I blame you for that. Don't get me wrong...You'll be our #1 target afterwards. I might just "miss" some chances though since you mentioned it'd be better to go for the whole team at once...That includes taking care of Chatot and Archen as well...And that's enough for me to encourage even my own suffering. Try putting up with them through some dungeons and you'd see exactly why I'm willing to take this risk.)

JBtheShadow In reply to XIIIthEnigma [2011-07-05 23:13:26 +0000 UTC]

Well, what I meant by clown is that the person is always trying to be funny. I don't think that's how Zé and Nestor are...

(It's a risk I have to take if I'm willing to tickle others. And honestly, it's fair that I get my share too.

So the benefits outweights the risks? Heh. )

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-05 23:38:39 +0000 UTC]

Oh you meant "ha ha" funny and not "embarrassing" funny. Got it. At least you'll get to make them laugh and proceed to embarrass them with the footage afterwards.

(Good to see we both understand the punishment to our actions. When your time comes I'll try to go easy on you. Got to make up for the extra force I know those two will put into it.

I'm fine with the risks unless you get the urge to make me your top priority instead of treating the team evenly. Worse that could happen aside from that is they find out the two of us set the whole thing up. In which case you and I are both going to have be in some serious trouble. Of course you wouldn't let them know of my involvement in this plan...Heh...R-right?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

JBtheShadow In reply to XIIIthEnigma [2011-07-05 23:55:25 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, you could say that.

(You know, I was thinking on going easier on you too. Specially since you're not the main target, I should concentrate on the other two.

And you have my word neither I nor any of my other characters will tell them that. I'll ensure it. )

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-06 00:23:42 +0000 UTC]

Wonder how Zé and Nestor will feel about the extra attention they'll be getting after it goes public? This will probably ruin whatever reputation either have them have left. As if Zé needs anything else to run away from. From debt collectors to ticklers...He'll never be safe again.

(I'm not sure if I should thank you and move along or come out and say that you missed the obvious hint.
If we're both setting this up...Then it somewhat pains me to say that we must both accept the consequences. Team Victory will recieve equal treatment and we'll have to deal with them returning the favor...Both of us. Plus it'll make it easier on you. Your one tickling three is fine but three against one? Now we're just getting unfair. )

Was he even safe before we came?

(Heheh, but that means you'll get tickled twice: first by me and then by your partners... well, it's your choice allright.

And I don't remember how many times I was in a 3 on 1 situation anymore... )

XIIIthEnigma In reply to JBtheShadow [2011-07-06 01:32:34 +0000 UTC]

Well even a million and one debt collectors must have something to do besides follow one parrot. If he really is as good a manipulator like I've heard then it'd make sense if he has some moments where he's free and clear. No amount of explaining will help him once everyone sees the footage though. That's better than forcing him to pay off his debts if you ask me.

(I figure it's a way I can start paying you back for all the work I expect. I've got around five pictures to harrass you about besides these two right? It might help my chances if I pass up tickling you and force myself to recieve extra punishment at the same time. At least I hope it will.

I'll assume far too many times. You're welcome. )

(That's what I was hoping some of our conversations would manage. With all the ideas and possibilities that come up I had hoped it would spark something that'd then get put to paper. I wish there'd be more I could actually do to assist aside from throwing random/new contract deadlines at you.)

Heh I meant the other hundred and one RPs. I'm pretty sure going through all of them several times a day can shut out ideas. You were uploading like crazy before you fully got involved in them.
