 dominic hisses and snatches the magma stone off the floor as he calls out for a new pokemon. The newly summoned honchkrow screeches out as it slams a night slash into the closest heatran and circles back. Dominic lunges forward and inserts the magma stone.

 dominic regards the new addition to their group for a long moment and inclines his head sideways but doesn’t have time or indeed the words to reply. He withdraws his current pokemon and replaces it with a garchomp that he directs it to attack the next place in the wall.

 having made the somewhat precarious descent down the side of the cavern to join the others, dominic's gaze follows gavin's motion to the rock he had dropped.

with a quirk of the brow, dominic crouches and reaches for it and although he can still feel the heat through the leather, at least it doesn't burn to the point of injury. "it's hot. i don't know what else to tell you," dominic says with a shrug as he pulls back his hand.

his gaze jerks toward gavin at the familiar jangle of keys, but it is just gavin's klefki stirring into action. dominic releases a bisharp and gestures for it to assist the other pokemon in breaking apart another chunk of wall. as the bisharp slams down a conjured STEEL BEAM. dominic's attention returns to the bizarre rock in front of them.

 dominic takes his place, perched safely in a crevice along the rock-face and takes a moment to survey the cavern for the others - he's not surprised to see that they're all fine atop their respective pokemon.

as gavin calls for another course of action, dominic acquiesces and releases his own greninja alongside him. he gestures toward gavin's pokemon and then toward the lava. "match that one," he says, having to raise his voice only slightly over the flurry of attacks and bubbling below.

 as the fissure rips the ground underfoot apart and the earth yawns beneath them, dominic draws alongside his party members, squinting his eyes at the ripples of magma down below. his eyes flicker from the weak light to the shadows provided by the rock, and he recognises it as safety.

"don't get us killed," he drawls. dominic reaches a hand out to brush gloved fingertips against the cavern wall. he doesn't have the champion's gift to bend the earth itself, but he has this.

maybe it's hidden in the commotion, in the dark and in the dust of crumbling rock, but dominic is displaced - disappearing in coils of umbral shadow as he melts into the crevices.

 obviously what this cave needed was more frigid cold. dominic purses his lips, glowering, and follows marcel's motions as he swaps one pokemon out for another.

dominic gestures to the weakened spot to his froslass, and she dips her head in acknowledgement as she unleashes a flurry of silvered ice and snow; it looked all the more blinding in the weak beams of light provided by their lanterns.

 dominic exhales in an amused scoff, his mouth twisting into a brief jeering smirk. "didn't think you'd miss me so much," he mutters into the decorations, his brow quirking into a frown at her follow-up comment. in retrospect, it would have been easier and quicker if he had unplugged them from the socket. the lights begin to flicker different colours, illuminating his face in greens and reds.

a pause stretches out and dominic opts to not provide an explanation for his current task. his silence is accompanied by the jangle of little bells as he shakes the cord in a way that is almost helpless. finally, he swings around to stare at circe, incredulous. "are you going to help me or...?"

 dominic swaps one pokemon for another in a swift, practiced gesture. the urshifu cranes its neck to look around them in the dim light, and dominic finds himself wondering if it recognises marcel and priam.

casting a glance toward priam and his scyther, dominic's lips twitch into a brief smile. "i feel much better knowing the best pokemon ever is with us," he drawls and then gestures to the spot it had attacked in the wall so command his urshifu to follow suit.

 christmas is coming, and that meant the submarine decor needed to reflect the season. dominic feels like it's been mere days since he shooed away the clusters of pumpkaboos (that had the audacity to hiss at him as they trotted away) and took down the tacky fake cobwebs, but here he was again - hanging christmas lights between two trees in the courtyard.

dominic pauses his work and heaves a sigh when he hears the incoming clack of heels down the corridor - it's late into the night and he hasn't intended or wanted to run into anyone except maybe declan, least of all circe; he doesn't need to turn to turn to be able to identify her by the footsteps alone.

"why are you awake," dominic snaps, not turning to look at her as he busies himself detangling a string of lights.

 "it is," dominic replies to gavin shortly, pursing his lips. stepping through the shadow is more complex than that but he lacks the words to articulate it beyond the fact that it leaves a sensation of cold in his lungs.

dominic withdraws another capsule and sends out an ariados that scuttles ahead to assist the other pokemon with its own poisonous attack.

 dominic blinks rapidly as bright light begins to flood his vision. traversing further into the depths hardly felt appealing but he held his tongue and kept his gaze stubbornly fixed on the tunnel ahead. at priam's question dominic inclines his head and fixes him with a blank stare, opening and closing his mouth as he tries to process the question and come up with an adequate answer.

"no," he says after a few seconds, brow quirking to a frown. "i just have to make guesses to where i'm going in the shadow."

swapping out his pokemon for a magnezone, he urges the steel-type to assist gavin's porygon-z with a MAGNETIC FLUX.

 dominic recalls the luxray before it sees gavin and priam's fish pokemon lest it mistake them for a snack. the underboss regards his group and their conversation with some apathy for a moment before producing another capsule to release a mimikyu.

the pokemon turns to look first at its trainer and then at the assault of the wall behind it. "go on," dominic urges it, with something resembling encouragement. the mimikyu blinks its big, round eyes and hesitantly creeps forward as it musters its energy to unleash a blast of flames at the wall.
