my god, what were those?[break]
before rhugone could even question, her zombie had been polished off by one last almost reflexive bend of her wrist to her mouth. her alcohol tolerance was almost as insanely high as her strength levels and she found herself perking a brow at the seemingly fellow gymbros that piled into the bar with their ... friends? "esmee had told me something about this," she mentioned to cato - having pulled him along for the ride, naturally. at some points, rhugone simply brought her boss out and about as means of keeping an eye on him - thus an extension of her work. much like a babysitter would take kids to go grocery shopping since it was their job to keep an eye on them, so did rhugone. "she seemed particularly bothered that these pokemon had barged in on her ... date." this last word was said in a strained manner, unsure what she would call esmee's constant refusal of affection towards gaultier despite acting the complete opposite. [break]
"it shouldn't take long," she said with a paw of a hand on cato's head - patting him as if to calm him down should he be stressing about being out in public much longer. the two of them had come to just spend the holiday together and unwind, but rhugone was always on the clock as did show through her readiness to escort the double-eyepatched combees from the bar if need be. her previous successes in acting the role of a ranger would surely help her here, right?

"She'd curse you if she knew you referred to their outings as that. I know how much she likes to consider them intel gathering because she insists there's no attraction out of her attempt to break Mister Favreau. She holds the title of black widow like it's a prize and yet now she finds herself wrapped up in her own web. Part of me wants to see how it plays out for her."

Goodness, he seemed chatty this evening. While he didn't often drink, he figured one to ring in the New Year sounded appropriate. Though he certainly nursed the drink quite well. Unfortunately the scent of it lured one of the Combee over and it buzzed all about. It didn't bother Cato one bit. He felt if he could ignore it for long enough, the creature would eventually leave to go bother some other patrons. Cato sat still as if to encourage the pokemon who flitted its way in to go ahead and fly off. Thankfully it wasn't long until the curious creature quite literally buzzed off.

"Thankfully it doesn't seem they'll ruin our date."

Was it even appropriate to refer to their outing as that? He seemed to do quite well in the public setting despite the fact it wasn't exactly his first option of things to do. (In fact, it didn't even make it into his top 5.) But most of his peace within the situation revolved around the fact that Rhugone herself was there to keep him tethered to reality. Plus it didn't help that he had some liquid courage in him. Now that his drink was free, he held it up in a personalized toast to his bodyguard.

"I'd like to mark this year as a success for the Velvet Room. With record profits, I'd mark this as a grand success for us. And I attribute that to both you and Lorelei."

Once their glasses clinked together, Cato took another small sip of his drink and then sat it down. A shame his co-owner couldn't join him given she chose to go out with her favorite dog. Sometimes he felt she spent too much time fixated on that mutt than she did on business, and there were moments that he regretted even presenting her with him. Alas it seemed Rhugone herself had no qualms of fixating on what was important with him. But they were here to unwind, and logically speaking, he was aware of that.

"So tell me, is there any success you wish to celebrate?"

cato did talk quite a lot when he was around her, hm?[break]
"you do have a lot to say about ms. lechance. i wonder how she would feel if she knew you had all that held back. maybe she'd increase your medications." rhugone wondered about that for a moment before raising a finger to the bartender to indicate she'd like another round. truth be told, the serving she had already drank had tasted like water and sat in her stomach as if it hadn't even managed to trickle its way down yet. the bodyguard grew famished, but luckily her contractor's words were ready to fill her up with his chatter.[break]
"cheers," the violet-haired woman responded coolly, clinking her new glass against her boss's with a lopsided and faint smile. although a 'date' wasn't her intention at that moment, she supposed they could call it that. it was rare for either of them to put titles to any of their meetings or exchanges of any kind, so maybe she allowed it simply because it felt nice to have some confirmation on what they should be referring to this as. it wasn't a celebration of mogul and his servant, it was clearly something more - or so cato wished?[break]
"the success i would like to celebrate is spending another year together." as his bodyguard, the amazon found herself proud of her ability to keep him safe, and - well - alive. "with such a heavy bounty on your head, it's a miracle we have managed to keep you with us." rhugone was humble, speaking of 'we' as if it wasn't just her that kept the boss of the velvet room well. [break]
"i just hope you plan on being around for many more years to come, mr. dipasquale. it would be a pity if i had to find employment elsewhere. i've come to quite like the room."

Not that he had plans to die anytime soon, it did come to mind that death was a tricky subject. It could often happen when one least expected it. Perhaps it would come unintentional, much to the chagrin of many, he could only assume. Though it wasn't a topic he cared to mull over -- it would happen when it happened, and no one could stop it. A cold fact he'd come to accept early in life. (To him, the years he had now were simply borrowed time. Who knew when he would have to pay it back.) Yet another slow and cautious sip of his drink, though this time he choked on it the moment that a Combee rammed itself into the back of his head. Unfortunately this time around, he did spill the drink on himself. A frustrated sigh left his lips as he took a napkin and began to carefully dab it against his shirt.

"Perhaps we should take care of them."

They were there to ring in the new year, not deal with pokemon that didn't exactly know their place. Thankfully the drink didn't stain his shirt. It wasn't long until Cato released his Delphox to attack the Combee. While it set fire to a couple of them in one fell swoop, they seemed as aggressive as ever. And as the ones who caught fire began to fly around, they bumped into things and caught other things on fire. A grumble left the businessman's throat as he looked to his bodyguard with an apologetic glance.

"I'm sorry, it seems I caused more trouble than I meant to with this. I hate to ask you to help me take care of my mess, but it seems necessary now."

For now, he withdrew his Delphox in favor of a more recent addition to his team in the form of a Seel. The creature was sent out to put out the fire that the Combee had begun to spread. With spritzes of water gun here and there, the pokemon carefully kept the fire damage to a minimum. Some of the other patrons seemed in a frenzy that he'd drew his pokemon out to fight, and perhaps it was jumping the gun, but he had to make sure that the Combee didn't bother anyone else.
