[attr=class,bulk]Adrian wouldn't sink anything too heavy into his gut until after drinking, and there was a whole evening of that ahead of him. "I follow ya." Yet these were precious moments Rowan would look back on fondly in the years to come. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed himself by how they reacted to their pokemon's personality. That was just his jealousy talking, though. Adrian would've put up with anything to get his girl back, but Howitzer was gone despite his wishes.[break][break]

"Don't go bothering anybody now," he warned the Teddiursa before heading along with Rowan, watching them pile a plate high with appetizers and savory soul food. He hardly felt like carrying a plate around, and with such a nice jacket on, he wouldn't risk more than a few bites. He'd have to hope Rowan would forgive him when he inevitably picked at the food off their plate.[break][break]

Once they had their food Adrian would guide Rowan away from the ballroom floor where many were dancing, hoping to avoid bumping into any recognizable faces for awhile longer. His eyes flickered from stranger to stranger, measuring them up between stealing stares at Rowan. "Where are you putting all of that," he muttered playfully before pinching at their waistline accusingly.

An ache in the pit of Gavin's stomach is chased by a sudden swoop as marks his territory with a daring display. Having allowed the other to pull him to the dancefloor, he still isn't expecting the way his partner slides an arm around his waist and dips him. A startled laugh from Gavin is silenced by a claiming kiss that would be wholly inappropriate in the Galarian ballrooms of Gavin's youth.

Left dizzy and breathless, cheeks flush with colour for multiple reasons, Gavin curls an arm around Temp's neck for support and blinks at him.

"Unconventional," is breathy, rasps in his throat. "Really fucking hot."

To be possessed in all the ways he is ordinarily possessive, to feel wanted when he is at his most vulnerable — whether he realised it or not, had made the right call.

Heat floods Gavin's skin to replace the ice that had threatened to form in his veins. No longer caring for the etiquette his lover had sufficiently shattered, he bumps his forehead against Temp's before laying his own claim with a fevered kiss.

Mine.

"Now let me show you how it's done."

He retracts from Temp only to offer his hand for a dance, teeth flashing in a sly grin.

Temp might not have known how to dance, but Gavin had taken lessons and he had every intention to use them.

Skyler finds her attention drawn to the curiosity that dwells within a violet gaze. And while the truth is kept silent behind the mischievous curve of a smirk (and buried somewhere down her generous cleavage), there are stories aplenty to make up for the fact.

"You'd be surprised by what people consider treasures," she ends up saying, draining the champagne in her glass at a surprising speed. "This one time I was tasked with finding this guy's undies - no joke. He'd lost 'em in a boat party the night before, no idea how. Didn't ask. He paid good money though."

The end of her story is punctuated by 's sudden exclamation, disappearing into the crowd with in tow. "Fifty PD says they're going to find an empty cupboard somewhere," she tells . "Or a room," she adds with a sharp smile, remembering the upstairs wings.

Huh.

It isn't long before the urge to move creeps up on her, restlessness reflected in a wandering gaze that refuses to settle anywhere. Its wildness at odds with the lavish surroundings. "I think I might go and check whatever's upstairs." Although Jayden seems distracted by , the sailor invites him to follow her should he wish.

Her eyes travel through familiar faces as she weaves through the crowds, such as , ,  or . She pauses to give the latter a small wave, tempted to have him join her too.

There's a sliver of hesitation to her steps when she comes upon a disguised , but recognition withers before it can fully form, and silver eyes turn instead to the unknown above.


tldr;
- talked to jayden
- waved to razz
- is heading upstairs
- ready for trouble
- open to interaction

Whatever bit of distance he'd moved to confront Elliott was closed as Victor pulled him back to his side. Any courage he'd mustered up to shoo away the blonde, was quickly crushed. "I-..um...no-" he began, averting his gaze from his companion as he racked his brain for a way to explain this away, unaware the man had been minding his own business for the most part. 
[break][break]

His eyes are drawn back to Elliot as his mouth clamped shut. Lana isn't sure why Elliott is saying what he is, but he's no longer talking about his theft and that's all that mattered. The ghost specialist nodded robotically, agreeing to anything at this point. There's a small flare up of emotion as Elliott referred to him as a friend, before rational thought reminded him he'd mugged the guy, and he deflated instantly. "R-Right...he um- he very generously p-paid for my dinner." He explained, glancing up at Victor hoping he wouldn't ask any follow up questions, and Elliott wouldn't say anything more scandalous than what he already had. "Y-you could say I..I owe h-him one." Lana continued, locking eyes with the blonde once more trying to psychically beg him to keep it between them. Especially if it was money he wanted.

Killian stopped at the edge of room 342's door. The bronze key in his pocket felt heavier than before. Its weight slowly increased during his walk to the West Wing. He didn't notice until his destination stood before him. Thoughts too scrambled, craving too intense for anything to register. [break][break]

Even , whose presence he'd feel underneath his skin and on the back of his neck any other time, went unnoticed. [break][break]

"The fuck am I doing?" [break][break]

Nothing was stopping him from turning around and going back to her. would get here, find the room empty, whatever game he wanted to play ruined. Splendid idea. A lot better than whatever waited for him on the other side of this door. [break][break]

The gate to Hades. No one would assume it be disguised as a door so plain. Killian sighed and reached for the key. Against his better judgment, he unlocked the gate and stepped inside to wait.

"of course, love. thank you for coming." he says sweetly as tilts his head down slightly to place a tender kiss on her forehead. All the while Serena keeps her gaze low to the ground. Normally the kiss would've felt natural and made her heart flutter but now? It just felt foreign and instead of her heart fluttering she just felt guilty. [break][break]

Her brow creased as she attempted to focus on literally anything else. Continuing with thoughts such as these would only dampen the mood. It wouldn't take long for Danny to notice, he was unusually keen on her mood shifts and had the habit of being able to see right through her bullshit. [break][break]

"do you want a drink? i can get us some." lifting her head she turned to finally look up at him. "If you don't mind, then yes, sounds lovely." she offered him a small smile before standing up straight and letting go of his hand. Her icy gaze glanced over the numerous hors d'oeuvres that were being offered here. They looked good but as of late Serena didn't have much of an appetite, so she didn't plan in partaking in any.[break][break]

Since they were at the observatory she wondered if there would be a presentation on the sky tonight. She used to love coming to places like these when she was younger to stare up at the stars. Constellations were her favorite and she used to believe at one point, the most romantic thing a guy could do was buy a star and name it after her. [break][break]

The corner of her lips quirked up in a small smile as she thought back on it. Safe to say her past self was more than cringe-worthy but somehow she still could look back on it fondly. There were plenty of familiar faces here but none she felt like approaching. For just a moment she thought she had spied her brother, , but the figure just as quickly had moved out of her line of sight, so she couldn't get a better look.

She follows all the way to the threshold of the West Wing. Although heat boils in her chest, threatening to rupture and release the dark fires within, there’s something that hold her back. Lex finds herself unable to go forward. Her steps fall short, and she pauses, amber eyes staring down the empty hallway. She knows where this leads – hotel rooms. The implication is there, biting at the back of her mind like a chained up, rabid Mightyena.

What is she doing?

Lex smiles, shaking her head and laughing lightly at her own discomfort. Business. That’s all he’s doing back here. Her left thumb fidgets with the band on her left hand. Trust. That’s part of what this ring signifies. She spares a glance down at the diamond before the movement of her shadow catches her attention.

The crimson eyes of Smoke, the Gengar, peer up at her. Slowly, his white smile materializes from the dark. He senses her discomfort and offers his aid. She declines, shaking her head and shooing his image away. It would be easy to command him to follow Killian, to find him and report back. Lex ignores the pit in her stomach and turns around, swiftly walking back towards the party. She lets the empty crystal glass slide onto a nearby table before making her way back to the bar to order two more drinks. This time, she’ll wait patiently for him – she’d wait for him forever.

Open for interaction!
Lex leaves the West Wing and goes back to the BAR

When she spoke about not having learned how to dance he just smiled at her in his usual charming way. Not many people had been taught how to dance properly he assumed, in fact more people didn't know how to dance proper, than those who did. Guiding her easily with the music in the background was a simple task for him after all, she seemed to be a quick learner, and wasn't kicking him in the shins, or stepping on his toes so that was very much a step up from some dance partners he had in the past. Her compliment to him about how he seemed to be good at this, after introducing herself caused him to quirk a brow for a moment. Not many people complimented him, so it was strange to hear out loud.

"I appreciate it, you aren't doing bad yourself." A bright smile painted on his features as he gazed at her for a moment, it had been a while since he had been close to a female. At least physically the last he believed was , but he hadn't seen her for a while. Perhaps their date went poorer than he realized. "Well Miss Adachi, I thank you for humoring me this evening, it isn't often I get a beautiful woman to dance with, so it does mean a lot." He chuckled lightly hoping that he didn't embarrass her with his words, thought it might be nice to see her blush, he did need some more practice flirting, perhaps she would be his test subject for the night. It had been so long Amor didn't know if he was still any good at the game of flirtation, but as long as she didn't dump a drink on him, or attempt to kill him, then he would consider it a success.

Meanwhile over with a Hoopa, Adontis stared at his hands that had been marked with marker with the name Joe Mama on it, and his cheeks flared to light sparking dangerously as he pouted. The electricity daring to short circuit the sound system as he was upset, and pouting that this Pokemon had insulted him. He was still a baby after all, and how dare this guy make fun of him like that? His little eyes watered up as his cheeks sparked more, his eyes narrowing angrily.

"PICHU CHU PI! PICHU PICHU PI PI CHU PICHU!!" "YOU'RE A JERK! I WAS TRYING TO BE NICE TO YOU, YOU LAMP HACK!" He exclaimed rather loudly to the Hoopa, not understanding that it was just a harmless joke on the Hoopa's part, and he darted off into the crowd to go find Amor. It didn't take long for him to find his trainer dancing with that lady that had given him cookies, and so without hesitation, he leapt up onto his trainers shoulder, and wiped his tears dry, rubbing the marker off to the best of his ability, but it was hard to get off, and he was even madder at that fake genie pokemon.

Nuzzling up to Amor in order to cheer himself up, he just did his best to forget the stupid Hoopa.

Amor looked at Adontis suddenly not losing a beat in the dance despite not looking at his partner, and nuzzled him back affectionately with his cheek. He noticed the Pichu wiping something off on his suit, and if it was anyone other than Adontis he would have gotten mad, but his Pichu got a pass, because he could. Amor wasn't the kind to ask what was wrong, when Adontis wanted to tell him, he would. He took after Amor that way.

[attr="class","rolling-thread"][attr="class,"faction"]"Oh, that's great news!" Ruby spoke to . Their family was certainly going up in the world if they got to cater at a fancy party like this. "Your family's treats were incredibly delicious, last I ate them! Remind me to actually come over and get some more treats sometime." [break][break]

Sure enough, despite the trainers getting along fairly well, the Pokemon certainly seemed to be in their own little rivalry of a conversation. At the growl from Shin, Whisper only continued to smirk in response. A long tentacle hand from her hat slowly moved over to rest beneath her chin as she chuckled silently, clearly welcoming the challenge. His determination was admirable, at least.[break][break]

"I think-" Ruby began to speak facing . "That this music change wasn't planned. One of the party-goers overtook the music. But then again, maybe it was planned? At this rate, you never really know."[break][break]

And then, of course, spoke and her teasing smile slowly sunk into a soft smile instead. He might be healed enough to walk around, but the pain and struggle he must be going through daily because of that encounter must still be a constant reminder. Nevermind the fact that she was one of the reasons they continued on into the cave, even when they realized how dangerous it was...[break][break]

She quickly finished the rest of her alcoholic drink. [break][break]

Clearing her throat afterward, Ruby eventually spoke back up to the young lad. "Ahem, sorry... You know, uh, balls and other events sort of like this tends to happen yearly. I can take you to the next one myself if you'd like." He certainly didn't seem like a boy who'd accept pity, but there was only so much she could think to do. Guilt paired with her social faux pas really didn't work well together.

his temper flared as the conversation continued. but he kept his face neutral as his hand went to brush the intruder's from lana. he didn't like when other people touched his things. and technically lana was his. even with lana not really understanding the whole arrangement. in his mind it was akin to someone taking something from him. "you know you shouldn't hesitate to ask me if you need something." he of course meant money since that was what he gave the other man for the most part.

the idea that ruslan might have gone to someone else with the same sort of arrangement was annoying him. someone else wouldn't be as understanding towards the fact that lana had no idea what he was doing with it. "i'm sure you only have the nicest of intentions." but there was a hint of edge and bite to his voice at it.

I bought my own.” Zan said with a chuckle. “I figured that leaving it in place in favor of more personal observations was a given in this situation. I had gazed into the cosmos for far too long and my eyes had begun to dry out.

A white lie told to evade a somewhat questionable truth.

I would dare to venture that observing without the magnification a telescope would bring is preferable to one who would rather observe the beauty of the outer skies than study them.

Squinted eyes continued to stare through the window.

To gaze beyond the surface just isn’t as fun.

had his back before anyone could really bother to nay say. The Galarian wondered how he had not managed to make any friends like this back home. A slight pink tinged his cheeks, but the heat of the blood rushing there was buried by the constant cold throb of his leg. The metal plates, the pins, he could feel them inside, like a splinter he couldn't remove.
[break][break]
The arrival of the younger boy's ribombee proved a engrossing enough distraction. Quietly he watched for a moment, pondering too how the pokemon had snuck inside and gotten into some booze. Noticing his trainer's inattentiveness, Epitaph took the opportunity to vacuum some hors d'oeuvres of a passing waiter's platter right into his mouth with poltergeist.
[break][break]
''It's fine,'' came to the response to 's apology. It wasn't though. There was a fair amount of anxiety at his predicament, but Andy didn't have the desire to come off as whiny about it. ''I might take you up on that depending on how this shit goes. Every time there's a big to-do like this something stupid happens that ruins everything.''
[break][break]
As he looked to ask his gengar to confirm from past experience the thievery became apparent.
[break][break]
''Hey asshole!'' Providing a light slap to the ghost type, a couple of the hors d'oeuvres fell to the floor. ''You gotta be more subtle with shit like that,'' came a harsh whisper. ''You're gonna get us thrown out of here. It's not like open air gig, where we can just fuck off somewhere else.'' The pokemon looked annoyed of course.

    Jack had done his best to slip into the Soiree unnoticed, hoping to avoid the vulturous paparazzi that undoubtedly be attracted to an upscale event such as this. Some would call him fashionably late, but that wasn’t entirely accurate, he was just plain late. “How do I look?” Jack glanced down at the Pokétch on his wrist, receiving a thumbs-up emoji from his Rotom that currently possessed the device. “Great.” He hated formal wear, but the publicist he’d hired wouldn’t let him go to the event dressed in a sweater and jeans. Sacrifices had to be made, as uncomfortable as they were.

    Stepping into the soiree-proper, he’d immediately lock eyes with the servers passing around glasses of champagne. Maybe this wouldn’t be so bad of an evening after all? Scooping up two of the glasses in one hand, he slipped a handful of Pokedollars into the vest pocket of the server with the other. “Keep ‘em coming.”

    Now he needed to network. How the hell did people do that? Should he wait for someone to approach him or interrupt someone else's conversation to introduce himself? The former seemed conceited and the latter seemed rude, leaving him at an impasse. There were some faces he recognized from the business world, including and , but they seemed to be engaged in their own revelry.

    Instead he moved to the outdoor sections, hoping to find some fellow loners to commiserate with. “You look like you’re having fun.” Jack commented with a small amount of sympathy as he stepped up beside , sipping down a good portion of one of his drinks.

[attr="class","illie i"]ease slips into her movements until she's confident, sure, fluid. he guides her, sure, but she's grasping the concept quicker than she thought. and thankfully, 's toes are spared.

her eyes dart to meet his as he speaks, having been a little too focused on the floor, on watching her feet. a nod follows and then, a smile.

"okay," she whispers. his feet move and hers follow, shifting to match. where he steps quicker, she slides to keep up. the pace is quicker, more faithful to the original tempo of the song floating by in the background. and eventually, she doesn't need to think about the next step. she merely moves, an extension of his own fluid motion. by then, she's floating on what feels like clouds.

only, it's tendrils of familiar mist. not her own but still, it feels too intimate for her to ignore. her eyes drift slightly to follow the glittering spirals before the notion that he called her name dawns. and then, her gaze is snapping up, mildly hazy for a moment. daydreaming, maybe?

the question he asks causes her mouth to part in surprise, if only because it catches her off guard.

she matches the smile, then, as if the spreading of his lips directed at her is a foreign concept she's more than happy to indulge in.

"always," she murmurs. his suggestion is met with the shift of a smile, dipping into dangerous territory.

pink mist begins in small portions. first in droplets, rising from pores on exposed skin. it takes shape easily, glittering pink tendrils slowly rising to join his own. she doesn't have full mastery over it, not like he does, but the accents are enough to mix with his own. the resulting concoction is a plethora of sparkles, of swirling glitter over pastel colors. it paints the air around them, coating their movement like a fairy tale scene.

healing mist soothes any anxiety over her movements, allowing her to settle further into a light bliss. there's a sway to her now, as if the music and influence of glitter is sinking claws into her skin. somehow, she can't tell if it's a good thing quite yet. atop her head, the sleeping mew curls closer to her hair, eased by the mixture of mist.

Hideo didn’t feel comfortable putting his Ribombee on his head; with how drunk he seemed, there was the risk of getting bug/fairy vomit on his hair. Seems like he was gonna have to hold on to his 4-inch Ribombee for however long this party was gonna go on for.

If only he had Pinky’s Pokeball around. But not much he could do about that. Maybe Pinky could Aromatherapy himself into sobriety at some point.

With how much the music is changing,” Hideo said to , “I’d be surprised if it was a single person controlling what’s playing. I lost track of how many genres they’ve gone through so far.” They’d yet to hit one he didn’t like, and at least he got the fancy dance in while it was still fancy dance music.

A mental notification caught Hideo’s attention - his Gardevoir, he assumed. A correct guess, as his Gardevoir returned, placing a stuffed mushroom in his free hand. “Oh, thanks Dancer,” Hideo said, “Glad you could grab one before Epitaph there could eat any more!” Hideo’s both heard, and been informed by his Beheeyem about the Gengar’s gluttonous action - followed by ’s admonishment.

I’m pretty sure if eating an entire plate of food would get you kicked out, this place would be real empty already.” What, with someone messing with the music and all the other commotions he heard during their group conversation. “They gotta have more food in the back anyways. Sounds like a lot of people got invited to this.

There were too many voices to keep track of beyond the ones he was actively talking to. Most were unfamiliar, and the few that were, he didn’t have the chance to pin down.

Maybe we’ll get lucky and this’ll be the worst that’ll happen? Not every big party has to get crashed by a stampede.” He took a bite of the stuffed mushroom, only realizing he was carrying it with his alcohol-saliva-smacked hand when he smelled the alcohol again.

He had to take another bite, just so he could hold the mushroom in his mouth while he wiped the saliva on his shorts.


Summary: Hideo holds on to his Ribombee as he chats it up with , , and , trying to be optimistic. His Gardevoir returns and gives him a stuffed mushroom, but he remembers too late that he still has to wipe the saliva off his hand.
