The naughty kid with the Squirtle water gun was left to his own devices shortly after Remiel produced a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his face dry. Far be it from him, a prince and ambassador, to scold a child that wasn't even his. Sometimes one simply had to leave things be.[break][break]

The unsupervised scoundrel, of course, took great pleasure in that. His snickering could be heard even as Remiel walked away and disappeared within the crowd. Not long afterwards, however, he came to another stop: this time in front of a BALLOON GAME.[break][break]

The Blacephalon balloons, he thought, were somewhat in poor taste considering it had only been a year (barely) since the disaster at Slateport. Regardless, the ambassador stepped up to take part in the challenge, offering a pokedollar in place of a token. Just as he reached down to pluck one of the darts from the counter, though, he paused.[break][break]

Deciding he could use some charismatic assistance, the ambassador reached towards his belt and withdrew a luxury ball. With a toss, he summoned Admiral by his side, his rather stern Swanna. Using its KEEN EYE, the bird quickly developed an understanding of the situation after its prince finally lifted the dart.[break][break]

[break][break]

With plenty of obnoxiously loud squawking, it directed Remiel during each attempt.[break]

[break]

notes: Remiel approaches 's game stall, summons Admiral the Swanna by his side, and uses its Keen Eye and strong sense of command to guide him towards victory! (Hopefully.) [break][break]

[attr="class","hanatext"]The more she thinks about it, the more vague memories fill her mind to the brim and soon overflow - Bright and beautiful, the sky had been illuminated with an indescribable cosmic vibrance, the remnants of gunpowder and ashes giving rise to endless blooms. For the briefest moment in an uncertain journey, Lilith had received the opportunity to watch those flowers dance through the vast moonlit sky, to truly step back and marvel at the miracles this world had to provide. And not once had she regretted the decision to chase such an ephemeral sight, the awed bleats of her Wooloo still echoing her very thoughts long after they left it behind.

With this, Lilith might just gain a new memory to be treasured, a fleeting miracle only shared between her and Rubia and one that surely brings them ever closer. But the night is still young and the festival beckons her forth with many more secrets to be uncovered, the duo diving once more into the crowd but with just a little less unease this time. She meanders along the crowded paths, her footsteps subconsciously matching the rhythm of life at times and diverging with a self-created beat at others. On the other hand, Rubia is more focused on the various snacks and prizes available at passing booths, her gaze shifting over the sea of lanterns that adorn the winding streets.

It isn't long before the world decides to intervene once more, sending yet another curious soul right down her path with a question in hand. Of course, her first instinct is to turn to face the stranger, to ready herself with an answer as her brain decides whether to stick around or run. But she's tripped up by the very sight, a name already dancing upon the tip of her tongue as she reaches out for the Piplup stuck in the jacket hood.

This was all splendid practice for Nova, and the reason why Lex brought the Zororak with her in the first place. It was a test, of sorts. One Nova was epically failing. It was obvious the dark-type needed to straighten up its act. She couldn’t just run around doing whatever she wanted. That was a conversation for later. The way her amber eyes bore into the child’s with a slight furrow of her brow told Nova exactly what she needed to know: mama wasn’t happy.

The merchant gave a gruff laugh before shaking his head at Killian’s peace offering, “No harm done, just . . . keep an eye on her,” he finished before turning to go back to his stall. Lex glanced over towards the money took out with a frown, “You don’t have to do that . . . she’s my problem,” her eyes slowly moved back to the Zororak’s, “And she won’t be a problem anymore,” she commented in a flat, unamused tone. Nova frowned, crossing her arms and stepping away from Lex.

Lex finally took a few bites of the Dango she still had in her hand, “Mmm, this is quite good!” she smiled, “Should we find another game to play?” she asked, eyeing the stall was running as the one, and only, Vanessa. She smiled at Killian between bites, a continued attempt at deflecting.

Talk to me, I love that sound,
out of words when you're around


Hadley was a wanderer through and through so sometimes she forgets what it feels like to simply stay still and watch thing go by, she was much more like the current of the ocean, though that is much too strong to compare her to. Maybe it is more appropriate to see her more like a jellyfish, something that simply allows the flow of the world to wash over her and take her wherever it wanted to. That was why she moved so much, why each step she took made her travel somewhere she has never seen and towards people she has never met, it was exciting, an adventure all of her own that she could control, it offers her a freedom that many cannot say they possess, who else could simply get up and move one day? To leave everything behind, she had nothing to lose and so much more to gain and it was that very sense of adventure and desire to be apart of everything that brought her in front of this crimson eyed man without fear and the very joy that this night of new beginnings was supposed to bring, that was what this new year is all about correct? And at least just for tonight she planned to forget everything wrong and enjoy herself.

She couldn't help the small giggle that escapes her mouth when he seemed slightly startled to notice her now, though it wasn't in a mean way that much was obvious, her large brown eyes glittering in playful amusement towards the situation. Perhaps he was not used to being stuck up on? Though really she didn't mean to sneak but in this environment she could not blame someone for getting distracted. It was a beautiful night with so many sights to see and delicious food to try. She listens to his words, waiting for a rejection or saying that he was busy with someone else-it wouldn't be surprising really but she visibly seems to light up when he gives her permission to sit, though maybe it would seem odd but it was simply something she could not control. Hadley was an open book, the type to wear her heart on her sleeve without hesitation. She sits down comfortably in the open chair, her own food not exactly forgotten but her attention was focused on him currently.

"Thank you! I don't blame you for spacing out, there is so much to see it's almost hard to focus properly on anything."

Her tone is breathless, in awe, she moves her gaze from his for a moment to watch the steady stream of people move through each other with ease, the pokemon floating and moving as one with them as well, there are many good memories that will be made today and for that her heart soars-how lucky it was to be apart of it. Brown eyes meet red once more, she is taken fully with him now, gaze steady and without wavering, when he mentions the food she laughs and playfully bops the top of her stick with his in a "cheers" types of agreement.

"Delicious, I can't tell you how long it's been since I've had something so good! I feel like I've been lied too, travel was supposed to be a good way of eating a lot of good food, but I guess that's what happens when you don't know the place."

Hadley lets out a very unconvincingly dramatic sigh, drama doesn't seem to go so well with her when she's giving such a obviously happy smile. Content with even just the small talk they are exchanging together, it doesn't feel awkward to her and she is quite the social creature so finds it comforting and easy to simply be doing something so simple as this. It feels familiar, friendly, and it helps the craving of interaction she as been feeling.

"Then...was there anything in particular that made you want to go out tonight?"

She is curious about him, and in the same way his eyes do not leave hers, her gaze matches his without hesitation.

before she could properly wander from her beau's side, she found herself coming to a near abrupt halt as she collided lightly with . the remaining scraps of her meal remained unharmed, cait's grip upon the elegantly folded paper container remaining as she curiously eyed the unfamiliar face. 

"it's fine."

light conversation follows, with interacting with the razz as sénon served as the subject of their conversation. there was a small amount of surprise that flickered over her expression once had referred to her as his 'bond mate'.

'a step in the right direction,' she thought, pleased.

she smiled a little as razz was properly introduced, her amusement easily betrayed as her gaze flitted between the two. 

"
it's a pleasure," she said. "i hope you'll help me with keeping him out of trouble. i'd rather he come home intact. you know?"

cait shot a glance, lifting an inquisitive brow.

"
gengar?"

the pokemon rose from the earth, sporting his usual grin as he fixed his leering gaze upon the green-haired woman. 

"
can you throw this away, please?"

the remainder of the fried bits were promptly tossed into the ghost-type's mouth before he strolled away, likely intending to locate the nearest trashcan.

A second round of tries, for a max of three. Once again, Remiel took the darts he was given and depended on Admiral's guidance for the throws he was about to make. They had, after all, helped him garner a bullseye earlier.[break][break]

Fwit!
[break][break]

The first of the darts went soaring towards its target, stabbing itself into the cork-like board just beside the Blacephalon balloon. Admiral waved his wings at the miss, sharply turning its beak towards his prince and squawking.[break][break]

Unperturbed, however, the royal picked up the second dart and aimed it carefully. At this, Admiral finally quieted.[break]

As nice as it was to stand around and make small talk teasing Ji-hoon there was something he still aimed to do while he was here.

He would be vaguely and inwardly damned if he left this festival without winning something. "I'll be right back." A balloon popping stall in the distance had caught his attention.

He didn't direct Cait to come with him, in fact he wanted her to stay and chat with her friend, he wouldn't be gone long. Of course he wouldn't stop her if she decided to follow.

Despite gambling being the family business Sénon himself was retired from the casino scene. Festival and Carnival games however he could still get a good thrill from.

He watched a couple others make their attempts at the balloon game noticing the sign allowed for the assistance of pokemon.

Knowing how shady these games were to begin with, nothing stopped him from taking advantage of loophole of getting help from his pokémon. It took a moment for his Kadabra to fetch the pokéballs he needed from home, dropping off others he didn't.

Calling out all the pokemon who could assist him and recalling Kadabra he paid for his turn and waited to take it.

With Toucanon on his left shoulder, Pidgey and Spearow bickering on his right shoulder, Rockruff wagging his tail away on the ground and Magneton floating just above the pup Sénon conserved space at the small booth despite the number of pokémon helping him.

() () () () ()

With the support of 4 sets of KEEN EYES and Magneton using LOCK-ON. He waited for his cue from his pokemon and took his chances.

Oh he was more than a little anxious. His eyes shifted between the hatterene the ribombee and Hideo. If something uncooth was going on, he figured the four pokemon he had present could blitz them. The other boy went back to the game with some confusion, but little suspicion that Andy was on to him. As he shot the hoops again, he did even worse than before.
[break][break]
Each missed shot seemed to have a calming effect. Maybe it was nothing. Just a coincidence. Perhaps he had gotten lucky with the psyduck hunt. Hideo's hearing had to be stellar. Maybe he could hear the little targets flip up and aim for that. Andy breathed a heavy sigh through his nose. He wasn't even sure how he would explain this to apologise.
[break][break]
''Freeee!''
[break][break]
Looking up at the cry, he squinted, mouth hanging slightly ajar. It was a butterfree, but it looked oddly familiar. Could it be ... Cepheus? But that was his mother's pokemon. When it landed atop his cranium there was little doubt. A paranoia growing in his eyes, they flicked to Epitaph. The gengar also recognized the butterfree and his mouth hung wide in shock.
[break][break]
Of course it would make sense that Cepheus wouldn't recognize Epitaph's now shiny form.
[break][break]
"What the fuck is going on here?'' For a long moment he ignored Hideo's question. Flailing his hands, he shooed Cepheus away. His other ghost pokemon all stared in relative puzzlement. His gaze snapped to Hideo. Too much weird shit was going on. It wasn't possible for Cepheus to be here. It had disappeared with his mother.
[break][break]
''We need to leave,'' the Galarian stated with a desperate determination. ''Now.'' Obviously detecting that something was wrong, his cadre of spooks bunched up around Andy. A couple looking to the offending butterfree as if it had done something threatening. ''Something's wrong Hideo. Someone's here to get me. The same people who got my parents. We got to get the fuck out of here.''
[break][break]
His antics were starting to draw some stares and whispers from passers by.

So tonight the objective was to try out as much food as possible without overeating himself into a food coma—and for that he took one of the other taiyaki that he’d bought and took a big bite out of it.

Fortunately, Alexei had the foresight to pick up several pieces to share (or probably greedily snarf down himself) so whenever he would be able to find again in the crowd, at least the other man would have something else to eat.

Thank fuck the taiyaki didn’t contain ice cream.

“Wait, give me like a few moments,” he said in ’s direction, turning around to follow the scent of what he guessed was fried chicken, because holy shit he was going to be a very hungry man if he kept snacking on nothing but sweet food!

Several minutes later, the platter he had was now piled pretty high with several sticks of grilled chicken that he couldn’t help but buy out. Well, at least the stall owner now had motivation to cook some more!

Turning around, he wondered if Ruby had left her spot—hopefully not, because he was back with savory food this time.

“Got something more substantial to snack on!” he chirped as he offered a piece of the skewered grilled chicken to her. “Are you going to be looking around?”



his attire + a fox mask as described. Also no scarf? What is this madness

    Zac wondered where was for about half a second before remembering that she was in the hospital. Hope she's holding up okay, he thought, watching the seasonal Driftloon float across the night sky like dim, kidnapping lanterns. I wonder what she's doing right now?
    Zac took out a little handheld cam. He hadn't used it since he had switched to Lucretia and Davenport, but there was no reason to make such a ruckus here. I should send her a little vid, he resolved, turning on the cam and taking a quick establishing shot of the festival, complete with chatter and diffuse lights. That way I can give her a little taste of the excitement next time I see her!

It seemed that and were going elsewhere. Chu-e felt a little bad. He hoped that he hadn't gotten too excited talking and ran them off or made them both feel unwelcome. Or maybe they would be worried that he would say something naughty and embarrassing. That was... fair. Oh well, as long as the two of them had fun. He waved to both of them as they went before turning his attention back to .

Or, he would have, if not for @zhao's Sunflora poking at him. "Hmm?" He glanced around, finding the grass type. While it didn't click right away on whose pokemon this was, he did nod and give a small smile to her before offering his hand for another 'high five' like the last time they met. "What are you doing here? Want a friend?" Reaching into his pocket, a pokeball was pulled out, releasing his Whimsicott. Sadly, he did not have his Budew with him, figuring that she would be too scared with all the people around. Whimsicott was more flashy, spinning in a circle, before he tried to take the Sunflora's leaf and give it a shake. He also winked at Salem and Razz but was far less interested in both of them.

Pompom rolled her eyes at the proceedings, nodding to Salem and agreeing about hard to deal with charges. Really! Some of the foolishness that Chu-e could get into!

"It wouldn't mean the same from Game. I know he would only want me for the ass on my body and not the ass in my heart." But, slowly, a slightly more evil grin spread over his face. "Unless you want to win me one, Razzie?" He even gave a false fluttering of eyelashes as he spoke.

[attr="class","hearmenand22"]"Hey, c'mon, we're just... concerned citizens." Adrian said, his tone dripping with sarcasm. Serena just shook her head. "Who says we're not having fun?" Gavin spoke up with a with a wicked grin plastered on his face. 'Men,' Serena thought to herself as she mentally rolled her eyes.

"I'm down to try whatever." Gavin continued. It was pointless if she was going to get them to change the subject, after all they would do what they wished at the end of the day. Besides, she was the one that interrupted their conversation to begin with. She just hated being left out of the loop. And while that was of her own doing, it didn't make her pout any less.

"What else do they have?" Adrian asked as he turned to her. Serena could only offer a shrug. She'd been to a limited amount of places since she got here. She met up with him fairly early than she originally planned to. "I want a souvenir to take home that I actually won." Serena snorted as she nodded. "Good luck," she replied as she scanned around the area, searching for something fun to do for the three of them.

"Ah, look there." Gavin said as he points towards a small stand nearby. Serena's dark orbs followed where he was pointing to see a Blacephalon balloon stand. She tilted her head to the side, had that always been there? "That looks fun." Gavin said with another smirk playing on his lips. Serena shrugged as she shoved her hand in her coat's pockets. "Sure, I'm down to give it a try." She said as the group made their way over to the stand.

As they approached Serena noticed some other grunts from Rocket leaving the stand as a woman addressed the crowd. She didn't say anything but she figured, by association, this was a Rocket stand. That was fine, she was still a competitive nut. So no matter how rigged it may or may not be she would still want to try her hand at it. "We'll give it a shot." Gavin says as he chooses to be the first one of the group to take a crack at the challenge. "Knock yourself out," Serena said with a smirk as she stepped aside and made more room for him.

"Wish me luck," he said and Serena crossed her fingers. He was quick as he released three darts at the balloons. She was sure he would get at least one but it seemed that his aim was just shy of being true. "Unlucky," she said softly as she patted his shoulder. "My turn," she practically purred with a grin on her face. Would she do better? Who knows, but the way her ego was shaped up to be, for her sake, she hoped she managed to hit at least one.

Kissing the tip of the darts before she sent them flying, she said a silent prayer as she went forward with the challenge. Unfortunately for her she had no pokemon to help her out with her aim. Just her natural skills. The first dart was close but no cigar, the second however was so close to hitting the balloon that she felt physical pain in her chest. Already defeated the third dart was a miss too and all that could be heard from the once peppy girl was a heavy sigh.

It turned out having five pokémon help him was a bit of a waste.

Pidgey and Spearow squawked and pecked at each other over the prime real estate that was actually his right shoulder failing to signal him properly.

Similarly Toucanon on his left shoulder grew annoyed of Tiny Birds' bickering and started up a fuss of his own in consideration of eating them.

Rockruff yipped and wagged his tail as approached the stand, trying to climb her leg and demanding attention from her given he recalled her scent from 'moving day'.

Suddenly Sénon remembered why none of these four had been blessed with a name of their own; none of them had come to earn such acknowledgement yet.

It was only Magneton who helped; using its Lock-On so that Sénon might nick a balloon with the last of his three darts. His first throw had been a narrow miss and the second he'd hit perfectly with his own skill.

Returning all the pokémon save for the Rockruff, he took his voucher for the Grand Prize from the redhead behind the counter with a wink, not even realizing it was his old buddy "Johnathan".

Pocketing it until it was time to get his prize he watched Serena make her throws, arriving as well.

Simple a game as it was he watched the other men ( & ) with a genuine interest in if they'd win or not.

as he slips away from the crowds, kyle tries to find a quieter spot on the festival. a difficult task considering everyone else's festive mood, though his standards are way too low at this point that he'd take a random bench near the food stalls.

sitting on one of them, he fiddles on his phone once more, trying to reach on his phone again. like a giddy schoolgirl talking to his crush, the smile on his face as he sends a message to him was more evident than anything.

when's your break? you okay with being alone this festival?


even as he presses send, his eyes remain on the screen for a while.

"pog!"

priam can hear a slight ringing in his ears when the fireworks lit up by explode in the skies. an image imprints itself in the sky, one that depicts legends. it looks too abstract though, and paired with priam's limited knowledge about them, he just deems it cool enough to look at.

"this one's super ultra deluxe! prettier than the regular fireworks!" he tells his friends.

as powerful the blast is and as colorful the image in the sky was, so was the residual sparks coming from the embers falling from the sky were. at the moment, it's nothing to be concerned about, given that they have a much more important objective at hand.

"here!" he hands one to before choosing one himself. "i'm lighting one too!"

he asks for the lighter back from plank, and when he manages to take it back, he immediately lights his up as well. it goes up in the sky, and in moments time, it explodes to another fierce pokemon of legends. doesn't matter that oldale was mostly vegetation and fire hazard as long as they get to see pretty lights.
