Yet again, he brushed his hair back upon resurfacing amidst the rippling waters, promptly hauling himself atop his accompanying Mantine once more. His fingers wove through the strands before shifting through them, ruffling the droplets that soaked them for a second time as he scanned the horizon.[break][break]

He pointed out towards the next wave.[break][break]

"I meant it," he called out, narrowing his eyes. "Get us over there. We're trying another Magikarp Splash...!"[break][break]

[attr="class","luci"] if the barrier was not up, perhaps it would've been imperative to ask mother to borrow a mantine from the fisk estate. clearly it was the fault of the pokemon beneath him to cause for his multiple failures.

[break][break] 'it's just a game,' he reminded himself, as he steers into the next wave with a mantine splash.

Okay...so high effort tricks just aren't working out right now. And her Mantine seems just as disappointed as she is, what a shame! To try and make them both feel better, Luka attempts a much easier trick this time around.[break][break]

Considering how often they've done it, it only makes sense to try the Primarina Twist again!

Triumph, something that tasted so, so delicious when it deemed fit to visit. The taste had been one to savor (or maybe it was just the lingering saltwater in his mouth?) as he and his Mantine balanced themselves atop the water once more, drenched not by the waters of another failure, but the splash and spray of their return to said waters.[break][break]

"Lessee, what was that next one...?" he muttered, tapping the beast beneath them as if it could answer him. "Do ya know? I'm sure ya know, yeah?"[break][break]

Of course, the name he was looking for was Starmie 720, but the name, itself, honestly hadn't been something he cared much about.[break][break]

there's a reason that he does not consider himself a water-pokemon trainer. he wonders if Rowan Wrynn has any better luck with these tricks, if he has a better affinity for them.

"You think I should try something different?" Derek asks to the Sobble on his shoulder, who shrugs in response.

"Me neither."

But if he were going to land anything, then they might as well go big. It wasn't likely they'd be able to bridge the gap with anything else. So with that said, they launched over the next wave trying for a MAGIKARP SPLASH!

As promised, Angelo buys Amelia Livy a malasada and then they return to the backs of the Mantine to rest. Fingers coated in sugar and the sun beating down on their heads.

“What filling did you go for?” He asks, legs slowly swaying back and forth through the refreshing cool of the ocean blue as they enjoy their break.

Once this is done, he thinks, he'll try for another OVER THE GYARADOS. Maybe a little R&R in between tricks will help their success rate.

And Adrian has decided to stay at the beach, soaking up the sun and enjoying the waves. Despite how often he's left thrashing in open waters, trying to find his way back to the surface after an intense wipeout, he's eager to get ahead and crush the competition.[break][break]

It's a great deal more daunting than he lets on, though. Despite a confidence grown from practice and an eclectic background in skateboarding, he's still falling behind the pack. He'd have to make a great showing in order to turn some heads and change the dynamic, and it's not something he expects to come easily.[break][break]

Nothing to it but to try anyways.[break][break]

A wave swells underneath him, carrying him into the forming crest and allowing his Mantine to leap skywardly... They enter a violent corkscrew maneuver quickly, the world tilting around him uniquely.[break][break]

Was Rowan doing well? Well, not really. jayden cross doesn't need to know that, though.
