He would've done more, said more, but 's forceful hands and tongue leave him wide-eyed and breatheless. Derek would definitely stay out of it next time...

[break]

hopefully there isn't a next time, though.

It was a little more humiliating with all of these people around. And though healed, the sudden dipping motion aggravated a leg injury he'd sustained some month or two ago in a battle against an island of terastilized pokemon.

wait, did penny see that?!

Derek's gaze spins around the room, noticing her take someone's hand while another() confronts Paxton about the rather intimate moment they shared. "Sorry, it was supposed to be a joke! I didn't think he would..." A slight pause conveys that Derek isn't even sure what to call it. "I, uh, better get going." As if to say good game for Paxton one-upping his gesture, Derek slaps Paxton on the ass to force them between him and the stranger.

And despite the pain in his right thigh, he quickly works a path away from it all. Grabbing a glass from a roaming server as he did, the ranger finds a place away from the crowds. Trying to settle his flustered nerves, the draconid zodiac is a welcomed distraction. He even toyed with the idea of getting a reading.

But all he could think about was .

should've known someone would beat me to it...

Too many of the people here already had. Ollie wasn't the first. Probably wouldn't be the last. For whatever reason, the night was brimming with ENVY.

gunner moved his arm, pulling her closer in a gesture that mila wasn't expecting. briefly, her eyes snap to his.

[break][break] fuck. he was hot. why was he hot?

[break][break] she hated him.

[break][break] she swallowed thickly, ignoring the heat in her gut, and instead forcing her attention on more important things. such as that bitch .

[break][break] mila didn't miss the spark of flame that ignited within the councilwoman's expression, which was made even better with the way that handsome man choked on his beverage as soon as she'd asked her question. both of their reactions were exactly what she wanted; they had not disappointed.

[break][break] to make matters better, it appeared that really did intend to take the other woman off for the dance floor. more importantly, away from them.

[break][break] the moment couldn't have come sooner.

[break][break] she glared furiously at the other woman but when she cast a glance at her outfit, undoubtedly trying to look at condescending as mila had moment's prior, the fury that was shifted once more. this time into pleasure at the fact that she'd forced such a response from her. mila preened at the attention, lips twisting into a broad smile.

[break][break] "why thank you," she said. "that's exactly what i was going for."

[break][break] but her good mood was quickly dashed to pieces when the councilwoman leaned forward, whispering something in gunner's ears. hot, angry jealousy burst in mila's gut, her fingers digging sharply into the elegant fabric of 's suit. so much so that she probably would've drawn blood if not for the thick material of his outfit.

[break][break] boss or not, gunner was hers and this woman had no business getting that close to him.

[break][break] eyes sparking fire, the fashion designer opened her mouth for a scathing reply. but already, the councilwoman was taking herself and her not-date away from them and to the center of the room, likely for a dance. mila had a thought to follow her - maybe even steal that handsome boy from her arm - before suddenly, was dragging her across the room.

[break][break] "gunner - !"

[break][break] she stumbled, her heels catching the floor as she struggled to catch up with him. a cold blast of air greeted her as gunner led them to the only place in the observatory that could catch a moment's quiet — one of the balconies that were strung with beautiful ivy and vibrantly festive ribbons. it would have been a romantic moment for the two of them, if not for the fire in 's eyes.

listened as spilled the beans, a muted grin barely curling his lips. [break][break]

As Ollie spoke, Gideon was wholly conscious of his friend's proximity; the brush to his shoulder, the innocent fingers tracing under the lapels of his suit. Small acts to foster an intimacy that the professor was unequipped to deny.[break][break]

If anything, he found himself egging it on even more.[break][break]

When the ranger finished, he'd pick up where the other man left off, placing a hand lightly on Ollie's back to beckon him closer. For the secrecy, of course. Wouldn't want to spoil the surprise for the other party-goers.[break][break]

"Oh, but I think you left out..." A few, more intricate details were whispered in Ollie's ear, revealing that Gideon already knew of the secret event that was planned to be unveiled. [break][break]

He said all this with a softer, teasing smile. All in good fun. Ollie's happiness was infectious, after all. He knew how to light up a room even with the smallest of gestures.[break][break]

As if on cue, announced the unveiling of the grand surprise: the Draconid Zodiac, carved into twelves intricately detailed stone tablets and put on display for the public to admire.[break][break]

"Shall we?" Gideon's hand wavered for a moment, wanting to reach out to take Ollie's own, but a moment's hesitation led to it shifting upward into a guiding gesture instead.[break][break]

After snaking through a growing crowd, they eventually found their way to the tablets.[break][break]

"You're a Leo, aren't you?" Gideon asked, his gaze gliding over the representative Dragon-type Pokémon.[break][break]

"Which would make you..." A TYRANTRUM in this pantheon.[break][break]

"Ha. How fitting." With a small chuckle, he pointed to the gaping jaws and white pointed teeth of the Fossil Pokémon. One of his favorites, in fact. "A magnetic presence. That sounds about right." [break][break]

His eyes settled back on . If his friend were to look, he might notice a newfound warmth in their soft umber depths.

green eyes widened as the other leaned in close, his warm breath furling against the shell of his ear.

[break][break] a subtle shiver ran down his spine at their close proximity, pooling something in his gut that his slightly-inebriated mind wasn't quite ready to accept yet.

[break][break] "hey! not fair!" he huffed, pushing back against his friend's breast. but ollie was still smirking, eyes bright with mirth as he snickered in response to the other. their close proximity still brought a warmth to his cheeks, even moreso as announced for the room that his draconid exhibit was in full effect.

[break][break] his attention diverted, glancing to all the stone tablets were on display that he missed the way the other's hand wavered. instead, when he turned back, it was with the same glimmering enthusiasm that all morales' were born with.

[break][break] "yeah! c'mon, let's go!"

[break][break] without even hesitating, his hand quickly clasped the other's hand before dragging them across the room towards where the crowd was slowly gathering.

[break][break] his eyes glanced briefly between and , mouth tipped into a frown at the sight of so close to his sister. older brother protectiveness nearly threatened to pull him from 's side, but it was actually the brief sight of something else that led him astray.

[break][break] as if connected by a string, his gaze was immediately drawn to the event's hostess.

[break][break] , in all her glory, walked across the room. she was resplendent in her deep satin red. ollie had seen it before, of course, when they'd been setting up the observatory — but the sight of her always had his heart spinning, tumbling, in a traitorous way. ollie knew it shouldn't — he shouldn't — but —

[break][break] then his breath sharpened at the sight of .

[break][break] and not just caleb, but the fact that penny had a man on her arm - which sent a spike of jealousy through him regardless - was not just any man but it was caleb of all people.

[break][break] something unsettling rolled through him, but it was different. it was hot and uncomfortable, like an anger that was bridled by sadness. it was jealousy, but something more. something that made heat burn in his gut —

[break][break] how had -

[break][break] "you're a leo, aren't you?"

[break][break] he blinked.

[break][break] ollie had been a world away, forgetting about next to him, or the fact they were supposed to be looking at the stone tablets together. his cheeks warmed, tightening around the other's hand inexplicably.

[break][break] "fitting?" he said, with a laugh. it only sounded sort of forced. his lips twisted into a teasing smile. "you find me charming, gids?"

[break][break] ollie then looked over at the other tablets, trying to find the one that suited gideon best. his birthday was in october, right?

[break][break] he hadn't noticed the way his hand had slipped away.

[break][break] "oh, garchomp!"

[break][break] childish delight gleamed in his eyes as he turned on his heel to call gideon over.

[break][break] "passionate, huh?" he said with a smirk, chuckling. "i guess i could agree."

[break][break] he leaned towards him, whispering in his ear.

[break][break] "passionate and intense. sounds about right."

Maybe it's just Genny. But she feels like she may have just stepped on a land mine. Maybe this isn't the best choice imaginable. But it is one done selflessly enough. Helping Dr. Morales. Unfortunately...[break][break]

talks about sweater and hat, and she feels as if her efforts were immediately squandered. Well, can't blame a girl for trying to help. Releasing her breath, she turns towards Eva's question. Which one she was? Genny blinks. "Late July is... Dragonair, I believe! They seem to be more artistic, which... I'm not really?" she says more excitedly. A little fake bonk on her head, Genny wants to help distract her from this situation that she seemed to not mind so much, or at least, didn't appear to be mind.[break][break]

All of that, and then @remiel appears. She feels like she remembers him... he seems familiar! "Oh... ?" That name sounded familiar... her hazel eyes roll slowly, a deep thought coming on. That familiarity... last year, around this time, the masquera-[break][break]

Lightbulb SHATTERS. "Oh! The masquerade, I remember you!" She calls out, hazel eyes fluttering. "You tried to dance with her and I said no, right?" Rejection... that may not have been the best memory to call on. She feels awful about that whole night. But when he mentions the fortune teller, NIOLA TOLSTOY, Genny smiles.[break][break]

She does have one reading she wanted done. She'd want to before long. Personal aspirations, if she could make it to be a champion. Or... the other thing. "I'll be over there real soon, don't you worry!", she remarks, holding a hand out finally. "Genevieve Cromwell. Call me Genny... and you?"



, , , , [break][break]

NOTES


- OUTFIT[break]
- Failing to stop what was going to happen, Genny lets it be. Dr. Morales isn't perturbed, and even asks her which she is.[break]
- She responds with Dragonair, happily talking about it... as Remiel shows up and Genny tries to piece together where he met him from.[break]
- The Masquerade! Right! Genny recalls now! She... feels embarrassed, but... at least she can go do readings? Maybe take off the heat?[break]
- She feels terrible...

Paxton's spat with runs short as he hears his name uttered from a familiar voice. The upright, tense posture frozen before deflating as he turned towards . The scowl on his face morphing as he saw Luciano before him shocked and then afraid because by Luci's posture it is unmistakable to know what the man had seen. [break][break]

Gods, this party really was the pits. [break][break]

His fists unclench, and he for the first time ever, most would watch Paxton revert to something more fearful, more panicked than he ever really let on. Derek tries to cover for him, though maybe it was merely trying to defend himself from Luci's glare. "Yes-" he said before flinching, feet forced forward towards the Fisk as clapped a hand on his ass in defeat. [break][break]

Paxton stares up at Luci incredulously, mind blank before attempting to calm down. Don't say anything cliched. "Luci, I was-" he began before realizing his explanation of getting into a pissing match with one man, and having a colleague try to pull him out of it via mistletoe kiss sounded fucking absurd. Like something straight off a TO CATCH A CHEATER radio segments he sometimes listened to in the morning. [break][break]

reveals the tablets and the readings for the night and Paxton can't even muster up the energy to glare, looking back at Luci who may as well have been a Yuki Onna ready to steal anybody's soul at the drop of a hat. "It was mistletoe. He got in the way of my conversation by it. I don't like him. I'm sorry you saw that." He breaks down the past 10 minutes down to its facts. He doesn't cut the distance any further than what Derek already forced him to, afraid it would only upset Luci further if he tried to console him. [break][break]

He had every right to be angry. He'd missed his sculpture debut. He'd kissed another man. He hadn't texted him when he'd arrived. He glances towards the tablets, eager to get away from the bar and all of its noisy drinkers. "Let's take this elsewhere."

In reality, Luciano knew that he had no right being mad. He was the one who hadn't come to the League party, he was the one who had decided to trust this .

[break][break] The one who had disappeared into some sort of dream world and decided that it would be appropriate to settle down with some other man, despite the years that happened between him and Concord. Perhaps Luciano was arrogant - no, he was definitely arrogant in thinking that Concord would wait forever for him. Or perhaps too naive.

[break][break] "Mistletoe?" he repeated, incredulous. "You're sorry?"

[break][break] 's gaze never wavers from 's own, never changes from the burning rage that simmered beneath pools of ocean blue. Hurt and agony twisted his gut in the most unpleasant of ways, but he refused to crumble. He was a sculptor; his eyes were as hard as the marble that he carved daily.

[break][break] 'Is that all you have to say,' he wanted to bite out, wanted to scream, but he said none of these things. Did none of these things.

[break][break] Icy cold, he uttered, "You have nothing to apologize for, Con-Paxton. We aren't dating."

[break][break] His eyes then snapped the closest other man in the room. It wasn't the poor fool who had kissed — was already running away. It wasn't either, who had also run away.

[break][break] No, it was some mystery man with a rugged jaw and russet red hair and deep blue eyes.

[break][break] He would do.

[break][break] Immediately, without preamble, Luciano turned. A hand reached out for the muscular man's white suit, hand twisting in the fabric as he dragged the other towards him. "My apologies," he murmured in a low timbre, right before his lips landed upon the other's in a searing kiss.

[break][break] There was nothing soft or gentle or sweet.

[break][break] Luciano pressed himself against the other in a show of unadulterated passion, a demanding kiss that was all lips, teeth and tongue. When he pulled away, his eyes snapped back to 's own.

[break][break] Above them both was a sprig of mistletoe, hung in the air between them upon a floating Minior, gleaming like Christmas lights above them.

[break][break] He licked his lips.

[break][break] "Mistletoe, right?"

[break][break]

A diva is never late, everyone else is simply early. [break][break]

Dressed to the nine's in her high heels and a low backless dress as she lifts up her shades onto her head and smiles as she sees some familiar faces and waves to them. However her eyes hone in on as he was here earlier than her, she picked up a martini glass as she walked over to him and gave him a peck on the cheek. She gives an especially big wave to [break][break]

"Hey baby, you having a good time before I got here?" she asks as she turns her gaze towards and and squints at them both. Her face makes a literal what the fuck expression, "Hello you two troublemakers" she says with a cheeky wink and she takes a sip of her drink.

"the trick to having free time is to have two important occupations, and then letting both jobs think you're doing something important for the other. works really well if the job description overlaps and they can't say anything about it."

he was both a member of the police force and a member of aqua. if he disappears, both sides assume it's for the other. he still has to do some minimal work though, else he leaves his trail open for investigation.

"i can say a lot of things, but it's really difficult to differentiate between the exciting stuff and the normal ones here on hoenn. you lived here for a bit. you know what i mean, right?" besides that, kyle's storytelling capabilities was borderline mid. "oh, i guess this one's pretty exciting."

he shows his hand to . on his ring finger was a simple band.

"i got married." his voice doesn't carry the hype in it. "before you complain, we didn't invite anyone else, so you're not alone."

kyle takes two glasses from a server, handing one to eve. he wasn't really a big drinker so he isn't sure what kind of alcohol was in the drink. hopefully, he won't act like an abominable snowman by the end of it.

He wants to rip that man’s neck to shreds. Anger, real, red hot anger, flashes in his eyes, bright as the red orb.[break][break]
Eris pulls him from the brink with a simple question. Anger is replaced with tender sadness, regret for someone lost. This isn’t the time, nor the place. As much as he wishes to mourn his fallen comrade, a brave face is needed. For Eris. For . For Hoenn.[break][break]
Arceus, does he ever hate politics.[break][break]
No,” he answers honestly, “but I’ll be alright.” He gives her another paradox. Takes another drink of whiskey. Tells himself that’ll be all for tonight. Navy sits the whiskey down just in time to see Melody make her entrance.[break][break]
She could make anything look good. When she wears something that really, truly flatters her? It is simply jaw-dropping. Nothing helps him take his mind off the matters at hand like the girl of his dreams dressed to the nines. He’s got eyes for no one but her.[break][break]
Thought you didn’t like martinis.” He says with a smile that looks far more natural than the one that preceded it. “They’re our troublemakers. Eris, Isaac, and Baki.” There is emphasis on that last word. His voice is just loud enough to reach and stern enough to tell her to stop trying to sneak alcohol.[break][break]
He’ll let her have a drink later when half the League’s government isn’t watching. She’s almost died for them. She can drink if she wants to. But not now, not here, where a faux pas could change the course of history.

"i see that bad habit of yours is still there."

[break][break]

a false frown worn. evelyn chuckled, remembering that's what she loved most about her close friend. it was nice to learn that he was doing well for himself. strands of red hair were brushed behind her ear. as kyle spoke she would watch from her peripheral view. as she listened intently, evelyn, standing side by side with her companion, took note of kyle for a brief moment.

[break][break]

watching kyle from her peripherasl, she thought to herself. when did he get so tall? softly, she would caress his hand; did kyle always have such rugged, large hands? and then she wondered, behind that neutral face, did kyle always have such a strong air about him? she couldn't help but smile. it made her think about the past momentarily. since when did he become such an adult? when did he become so strong? evelyn would gently lean upon his shoulder as they walked side by side, whispering to herself, "you didn't have to grow up so fast, stupid..." and then he dropped the ball, quickly ruining their moment.

[break][break]

"huh?" evelyn stared at the wedding band. her, flushed, became almost as red as her hair. "m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-marriage!?" she wasn't sure how to react to that. there was so much to take in. the fact that kyle settled down, got married, or found someone who, shockingly, loved him for him. maybe that last part wasn't necessary, but it was a fair assessment. evelyn would grab his hand to examine the ring more better, "who's the poor s--lucky jirachi--that snagged your heart for life!?" evelyn was more worried about the person than kyle, "are you treating them well?! are they okay?! you're not giving them trouble are you?!" she'd pull kyle by the ear while bombarding him with questions.
[break][break]

note: evelyn reminiscing and kyle shocks her. she has questions. wtf .[break][break]

[attr="class","nikita"]The Houndstone sipped gingerly at his drink. Where it went—without a stomach or inner organs—was a great mystery of spectral Pokemon. As Elaine approached, the dog lifted his head. Beneath a pair of festive antlers, hellish coals stared out. But they did not seem angry or upset. “Stone.” A single comment serves as a way of greeting (and warning).

Nikita’s general aura had scared his previous companions away. His dourness made it difficult to enjoy egg nog and spiked cocoa. If a mistletoe bough hung above them, it would have withered. The chuff from Detective Winters makes him pivot in his seat. A salt and pepper brow raises. “Is it?” The man’s eyes swept over the partygoers, noting the earlier tension between a man and an amnesty recipient. To anyone who was a fan of detective work, the face would be familiar but off. As if a mosquito had drained the spark from his eyes. “I had not noticed.”

Then, finally, he truly looked at the intruder. A rare smile brightened his features as he identified her. “Miss Highland!” The tone draws the dog’s skull upward. “What a pleasure to meet your acquaintance.” A hand gestures vaguely to the stool beside him. “Do take a seat.” When the zodiac hubbub kicks up behind him, the detective offers it little more than a passing glance. What utter bollocks.

More interested than his partner—and born in the same week—the hound moves toward the stone tablet. “Winters, why do you waste your time?” He places a paw at the bottom of the rock. When someone says ‘family,’ the ghost type barks. “Family it is.” With a shake f his head, Nikita throws the rest of his burning booze back.

NOTES
Surprisingly happy to see
Asks for a reading about family

With things calming down at the bar some, El lets out a relieved exhale - smiling over to those still present. They could see that the people getting their readings were beginning to thin out, too - perhaps they should go for it before they lose the chance?

But then comes the question of: what of the bar?

Bibidi would easily provide the answer - though first... She takes the time to Telekinesis the bottle of alcohol out of 's hand - giving the teen a stern look as she sets the bottle out of reach. Though the alakazam felt inclined to scold Tsubaki, she'd leave it in 's hands when his attention shifted to the girl.

(Watson, meanwhile, would get a light pat on the head for being a good bouncer.)

Next though, the Alakazam turns to El and both, whereupon she gives them a gentle psychic nudge, and an image of the tablets. She and Baron both could watch the bar while the two enjoy the festivities; there was no reason for either sibling to just be glued here forever.

El, taking a hint, chuckles and smiles. "Alright, alright - c'mon Isaac, let's take a break." They'd speak as they reached out their free hand to take his own. They'd cast a smile to the others at the bar - , , , , and as well - inviting "Do any of you wanna come see the tablets with us?"

Either way, El was eager to take a gander at the display. Seeing the different tablets almost had them wishing they could've brought one of their more mild-mannered dragons, like Namielle or Ysera - but either of them would've been too large most likely.

But looking at the zodiac... It seemed that they and Isaac both were Duraludon. El chuckled a bit as they idly traced the outline of the metallic beast - in a way, they both fit different aspects of the zodiac, didn't they?

Artemis would oink eagerly as she checked out the tablets as well - going straight to the Kingdra tablet. That was the one she was born under, right? It certainly seemed like it! She'd eagerly reach up as high as she could to pat at the edges of it - before bouncing along to follow after El.

Which, their attention turned towards Niola - and curious about getting a reading, they'd decide to ask "May I please have a reading about... Goals, maybe?"

To ask about family was also on their mind - but really, they felt they were happy where they were. They had Isaac, they were eager to get to know the people he was close to, and they adored their pokemon with all of their heart as well... They couldn't help but find themself a bit more curious about their direction in life, at this moment.

Artemis would eagerly oink to Niola as well, projecting an image of a Grumpig to her. She wanted a reading about growing up into a big girl!
TLDR/NOTES:
- Bibidi takes the bottle from and puts it somewhere out of reach.
- She then nudges for El and to go check out the tablets, while she and Baron help man the bar in their absences.
- El invites the others at the bar - , , , , and - to come with.
- At the tablets, El muses over them and Isaac being Duraludons - and Artemis is enthused over being a Kingdra.
- () El asks for a reading about future goals, and (optional/for fun) Artemis does her best to ask for a reading on growing up.

"I wasn't really paying attention to it, to be honest." He admitted with a chuckle, scratching his cheek with a digit as he glanced the way of the tablets. "Never been into astrology. Think I should try it?"

He might've not been a horoscope kinda guy, but he was even less of a party pooper.

That aside... he hadn't seen Yuina this quiet before; she seemed out of it. Was she tired? Maybe he had run a little too late.

"Unfortunately, I'll not be able to enjoy myself if you aren't here, so..." He smiled, lightly cocking his head. "Please endure my company for a bit longer. How about we go check our star signs together?"

Or whatever it was they were supposed to do. He was sure it would be amusing in any case.
