oh hecking fear. [break][break]

when walsh dropped her off, she didn't think that she'd be suddenly slapped into the middle of a chaotic cesspool of bamboo. it wasn't exactly safe either and - if she hadn't known any better - she'd think that he's trying to get her killed. her the woman's immediate reaction is to hover her hand over her appletun's pokeball. thankfully, however, another man seemed to be more charitable than the rest as a dome (luckily) covers where she's spawned. [break][break]

and heeding the man's words, she glances back to the poor, poor soul who's been spawned into this fiasco with her - more to briefly confirm that he came in, not too far behind - before running, sending out a salazzle to speed along with her. "fire lash and clear the path!" she commands the salazzle, who quickly swings her tail, coated in flames, to sear through the bamboo blocking their ways as the trainer dashes to safety.

what a sweetie, this deformed and mix-matched dragon was. yes they are. [break][break]

she takes her eyes off the giant beast momentarily, solely so she can observe the sheep who are so casually rolling around in their fields, undisturbed, with her other, smaller pokemon. it seems like they're all enjoying themselves, and seeing it brings a smile to her lips as she continued to pat at the happily groaning dragon. it's good, the hunt for wooloo hasn't started, and it hopefully won't start while they're on watch. [break][break]

"hm?" mielle blinks a few times, though it's to make sure that she.. heard exactly what she heard. to dinner? that's correct? he wanted her to take him out to dinner? mielle blinks a few times, and her emerald gaze is eventually closed, as she gives him a soft, amused hum in response. "perhaps~" her gaze turns back to the large dragon for but a moment, then it shifts to give him a glance from the corner of her gaze. "though i don't know if you'd be alright with a fancy meal, or something more modest?" she wasn't wealthy, after all. it's why she's stuck here to begin with, not like she has anywhere else to go (not like she'd want to go anywhere else). [break][break]

"i promise, my cooking is pretty good~"

Dante Telos [break]

☉

obscure little mind she had, and the poor dragon would never be able to get a read on it. [break][break]

he's right to think that she wouldn't.. shut up just from someone ignoring her. though she was taught that it would be rude to constantly pester someone, wouldn't it be such a shame and a waste? especially since it's a missed interaction! it's best to do ones best when making a friend, she thinks. [break][break]

"as long as i'm not too rude!" the little leaves on the top of her head wiggle again, and she bounces over to rest and nest against the grass with a grin on her sweet little face. "my name is schnee! what is your name?~"

Dante Telos [break]

☉

"never?" [break][break]

this wouldn't do. it's almost pitiful when she finds out that someone hasn't had honey fresh from the source, especially when it was so warm and rich! the woman mulls it over, then smiles all the more, lowering one hand from the budew in favour of reaching over to the larger man's wrist, with the intention to pull him to the kitchen. [break][break]

"we had a honey harvest earlier today, you see~" her lips curl into a smile as she brings him from the dining room, quick with the intention to pull him to the kitchen in the back (though ignoring a little thump - no doubt caused by some blunt force; she isn't as sharp as he is).

Dante Telos [break]

☉

mmn.. dante. that's a nice name. [break][break]

she takes his hand, grasping it and giving him a firm shake with the same smile upon her lips. her eyes wander to the salandit that seems to hiss once again at the man, brows furrowed and tongue sticking out in a hiss. "she's certainly a sassy one, indeed~" her other hand gently nudges the opposite cheek of the pouting pokemon, prompting yet another hiss of distaste before she ultimately scurries off the trainer. [break][break]

mielle takes another glance around, and no pokemon seem to have appeared. "i wonder what kind of pokemon shows up in these areas~.." she wonders, idly. oh! hold on, she knows! if it's a cave, then, surely--[break][break]

"maybe it's filled with rock and ground-types deeper in?~"

Dante Telos [break]

☉

she's done this before. [break][break]

looking at the stars, clinging onto the arm of a once-ler she loved so dearly. the chill of the winter is the same, as is the rosy red to her cheeks as she rests the side of her face against the coat sleeve of the man next to her. though the memories are distant and obscure, they're warm. they're sweet, and smooth as the honey she handles day to day. she only wishes they didn't sting her heart like the beedrill's nest when she thought too hard. [break][break]

not that thinking was ever her strong suit. [break][break]

"so you say~.." mielle isn't dumb, even though she's portrayed herself as such (and even though her cluelessness and oblivious nature may make others think the other way), she's isn't oblivious to the uncomfortable gazes shot her way when she starts to nestle too close to someone else, or when she starts getting too touchy with a friend and is mistaken for something else. he tells her that she's fine, and that he's fine with her affection, and there's a burning desire to believe it.[break][break]

a soft sigh, and her eyes turn back to the stars, aligned so beautifully in the sky. the silence is always so blissful, despite her always breaking it when something turns up in her mind - but for once, she keeps it shut in favour of enjoying the view, just for a little longer. There was something in that silence - something so warm, and comforting, and cherished - she'd feel a loss for breaking, but her curiosity really gets the better of her. [break][break]

".. you say that it's fine, but you seem quite lost in thought~" she chimes, glancing to his person from the corner of her eye.
"is something on your mind, dante?~"

mission: vacation time

☉

yes, she did. [break][break]

obscure as the inner workings of her mind, there was some method to the madness (surely; that's what some people would say seeing such a calm and pretty face). she glances to the pokemon, vividly coloured, and it reminds her a bit of an apricorn. "really? never?~" she asks once again, however her attention is on the large fossil pokemon, who seems pleased to receive her attention. [break][break]

"who's a good fish dragon?~" the woman coos softly as she raises her hand to pat the head(?) of the pokemon, a giggle softly escaping her lips as she moves next to him, leaning her rear against the bar of the wooden fence. she hums before glancing back to dante, from the corner of her eye, yet with the ever changing spark in her eyes. "i think you would love galar, if you went there~" another chime, and she's raising her other hand to pet the bottom of the pokemon's chin, sandwiching it between headpats and chin rubs. [break][break]

"i'll even be your guide when we go!"

Dante Telos [break]

☉

say your prayers, dragon. you don't know what you've gotten yourself into. [break][break]

she's free from the confines of her round body, which doesn't really mean much. she's just as chatty without needing to open her mouth (considering that you can practically feel the words radiating off her, what with energy so strong that it'll make a coffee addict on pure caffeine blush). raised back up, the little fruit pokemon flaps the little leaves by what looed to be a stem, on the top of her head. [break][break]

"no i wouldn't!" she insists almost pouting out at the larger dragon, still bouncing where she stood "i would have been sad! very sad if you didn't wave back! because ignoring is rude!" and she couldn't wrap her little round head-body around why ANYONE would want to ignore her. the audacity? [break][break]

the auDACITY.

Dante Telos [break]

easy to please, this one (both in and out of bed).[break][break]

it's always been easy to talk to him, and she's loved those moments all the same. "were you not busy, i'd have offered to get a drink~." sadly, she doesn't think that the cafeteria has any alcohol. it's a shame, but she'll be spending her bed empty. indeed, maybe some food might be a good idea to try and soothe the budew in her arms. [break][break]

she's still shaking, and the trainer raises the bud up to gently whisper in a softer tone. she wears a smile to her lips, and takes a few steps towards him, as to let him lead the way, mainly. "a midnight snack is probably exactly what you need, isn't it?" it's no feast, but it'll be enough to put the anxious nerves to rest. [break][break]

he's good company, so she doesn't mind walking down to the cafeteria with him. "oh!" and the thought hits her immediately, because she completely forgot! "i think i can make some honey tea? we had a very nice harvest today, and fresh honey tea is always the best for these~" she turns her attention to the man, as her hand begins to gently stroke the top of the budew's head again.

"have you ever had fresh honey before?"
