Shades, DRIP, minus mask, minus hat
This wasn't really the place to contest philosophy. Matt disagreed, Isaac disagreed without ever really disagreeing. Ashley merely takes it in stride, and with a quiet crane of his head, he just turns. He doesn't change his mind on that stance. Isaac was right, but he was idealistic. Matt's too new to know.

Everyone in Rocket will inevitably get blood on their hands. It was a rite of passage. The ones that can do it go further than those who cannot.

Still. Happier thoughts! The moment Matt waves that black band on his finger, Ashley whistles out. Cute. It had him feel fluffier on the inside. That's the kind of feeling he liked to revel in. He can't help but give the smile towards Matt. "Congratulations. You too, Isaac. You're getting commandeered. Hopefully I can just eat cake." There's his beaming smile he had before Mt. Pyre! It isn't totally gone.

Matt's a good person.

Shame he turned to Rocket.

There is a lot in this world Ash would do with Kepler. This dancing was just one of them, the way they move together. There's no trophy at the end of the rainbow, but to him, everything fades away. He can't help but smile wider and wider. Love drunk was the term that came to mind. He can feel his heart making such heavy pangs, as they sway back, they sway forth, they sway in circles.

His heart is moving so much in his chest, almost the same.

To the question, Ashley chuckles. "Hell yeah, dude. With you? We'd be the hottest couple there, hands down. I'll even workout for it." Nothing like showing off that not only he had a body-ody-ody, but Kep had that.

Kep was a positive influence on his life for sure, because it felt like every trauma just undoes itself, each step they take lightens that load on his psyche.

This was what happiness was made of.

It's as if a Krabby is crawling around his brain, foaming at the mouth, and attempting to punch his brain with a crabhammer into a memory. It's his flash of a smile that has the stranger before him pause, and Ashley's silvers blink.

When the pace quickens, and attention begotten, Ash begins to move faster. It's sloppy, it's not easy, and dammit if it isn't a little harder to move. He can feel that alcohol getting to him, because for a moment, he swears he knows the guy dancing with him.

The question is formed, and Ashley laughs. "Goes well with the white. And it's a masquerade. Helps hide my identity, not that my sling won't give it away." He's still grinning, somehow able to keep up.

If he didn't have two left feet before, alcohol levels, heartbeats, and quickened movements definitely contradict that.

"Your mask? What's the story?"

Soft-spoken definitely wasn't his typecast, but Gavin let him be that way. That was nice, at least. He didn't focus on the problem, he skated around it, and it was moments like that that had Ashley look up to Gavin like a mentor. Even something as simple as speaking of Mars had his smile back.

"You're telling me. is really nice. Showed me how cool it is to have a Rotom Phone. Got Pulse literally minutes after meeting him." With a half-genuine chuckle, he follows Gavin to a more secluded spot, looking about the casino. He'd never known this place was even here... he must have been living under a rock.

He pauses at the question. "Yeah. Met him again in the forest by Oldale. Where Meteno touched down. Told me himself." He takes a moment to think about what had said in the hospital room. The Rayquaza coming out, the Kyurem, and freezing everything over.

He has one more thought, but he keeps it out of mind.

"He's good for the role. Think would be a good one too, honestly. One of them is just a little more talkative than the other." One mission with Felix was all it took to tell him that much. Really is a good thing Gavin is here. The level of appreciation cannot simply be stated.

Ashley doesn't even realize that Kepler is jealous; he's just happy to not have to scroll through with one hand (not that he couldn't), as Pulse continues to scroll the menu, as he looks over them, but his attention is stolen by Kep when he explains why he doesn't drink.

Happiness drops, but not fully. Bad heart? Ashley didn't know that. For a moment, he wonders if any the stress he put him through made it unbearable...

His worried mood recovers when not only does he approve of good taste, but he doesn't know what kind of drunk he is. It's a cute Kep detail! "No better time than with me then, right? We'll see if you're annoying, or an adorable drunk!" He beams towards Kepler. Only one way to find out!

"Winter's Kiss, huh... that's pretty cute. Sweet-spiced leppa berry, ginger, honey, nutmeg, roasted chestnuts..." He ponders the drink just a moment, eyes closed in thought, a hand on his chin. "Whatcha think? Wanna have a winter's kiss and a winter's kiss?" His emphasis first is on both words, soon followed by the second time where he emphasizes the kiss.

Ash is so proud of himself for that one. Hell, would be proud! The smug smirk on his face as he gives a very loving gaze to Kepler only adds to it.

The good news is that, thanks to the fracture being in just one place, and a clean break, Ashley got to come on this mission without his brace. The bad news, is that he got to come on this mission to the place where everything went down; a bittersweet affair. But there was something so peaceful here. It reminded him of that new icelandic area near Oldale. Peaceful.[break][break]

For whatever reason, Ashley envies this place. Sure, it was sepia tone, but seeing those spirits floating toward wheever they were going. He closes his eyes. It could have been him. It might have been him.[break][break]

But it wasn't.[break][break]

Kep's joke was lame, but at least it made Ash smile. He chuckles from behind his rebreather. He'd laugh at anything right about now. Something to clear the air. Tempest notes how it isn't a great one, and part of Ashley wished Isaac would come over to do his usual funny haha to do it for him, but that was a taboo to itself. No moving him from his pit stop.[break][break]

Gotta be him then. "And the grim reaper said 'get off my lawn' or something, right?" That wouldn't save it, but at least he could add some levity to the situation.[break][break]

Fiddling with the equipment, mostly hoisting the goggles where his sunglasses usually were, he looks behind him. Next to him is his own Bongo, the Rillaboom using his big hands to move his body much like a gorilla, and Ashley smiles as he walks in with Isaac. In fact, Bongo had been waiting specifically for Isaac to come in, since he saw everything go down himself. The gorilla worried for him. "Thanks, Bongo."[break][break]

Tempest. Right, they were together in Mt. Pyre before everyone got separated; Gavin, Isaac, himself. His suggestion to hike it was the only way forward, so they might as well. Isaac seemed to agree.[break][break]

"Yeah. We can try the river, first. Get an idea of what we're looking at here." Oddly enough, as Ashley stretched, Bongo goes towards the new clawed friend, and quietly moves over towards him. Humans did this all the time. It was called a Han-D-Shake. He holds his opposable thumb'd hand out, blinking at new friend also Bongo. Or, Bongo Prime. Bongo Deluxe?[break][break]

As Ashley turns to Kep, he puts a hand on his shoulder. "We'll be fine." He lies. He feels as if something is following behind him.[break][break]

Bongo is by Bongo, and Isaac is by Tempest. It's as if something over his shoulder is watching his every move...[break][break]



, , [break][break]

NOTES


- ashley attempts to brighten the mood[break]
- he feels envious, and something silently judging him[break]
- bongo waited for isaac, and is trying to befriend bongo2[break]
- ashley is reassuring kep. boyfriends unite.

Notably, when states to watch mixing with painkillers with the painkiller of alcohol, he responds in turn with a cocked brow. "What are you talking about, this isn't painkillers, it's liquid courage, totally different." Down the hatch! Yeesh.

When he feels 's finger on his chest, he grins from beneath his long-nosed mask. "You got it, Sunshine." He's cordial, and considering that he will likely have a dance with Kepler tonight, he knows that he can try to get an idea of how to get through two potential two left feet. But now that he thinks about it, once he gets this arm working, he did want to learn breakdancing.

Gyros and shit. Maybe the B-Boy Ashley arc was coming?

A bow to , he responds in tandem. "Of course. Go get'em." What a sweet guy! He'd have to get a drink with him at some point, get to know him. Friendly mingling!

Of course when a strapping young newcomer in taps his shoulder for a dance, Ashley is about to tell he needs to go do that, but Kepler beats him to it, leaning in close to tell him he was going to talk to the rock lady, which Ashley would smile wide at him. "Sure. I'll go take a dance real fast. I'll be back quick, promise baby."

And so, he goes to take a dance with Jayden, unbeknownst to the man behind the mask.

---

tl;dr
- drinky.
- sassy banter with isaac, agrees to dance with cygne
- kep leaves him for a bit
- jayden wants dance
- dance time
- hoo boy, spin off threads me hoy minoy.

Ash's hand is warmly in Kepler's own, as he happily walks through the snow in following, dragged behind him as he can feel his heart beating harder. When they find a table, Ashley seats himself down across from Kep, loving silvers on Kep, as Pulse immediately pops up, scanning the QR code.

The wonders of having a floating menu.

"I'm actually a cocktail drinker myself. I prefer tasting something good over getting messed up." He thinks about his bout with Gavin over in Sootopolis after the mission, the taste of scotch rancid and undrinkable. Who hurts themselves in thinking those were anywhere near as good? Immature as it may be, an appletini any day was better.

He's beaming towards Kep. He's off the painkillers, so he's definitely more present today. "I always did wonder what kind of drunk you were." He inquires, a curious gaze and a brow raise.

It is quiet to start. The outfit chosen was one that Ashley had to find from a couple stores in Lilycove. It's olden, a yukata with a shroud owf white over the black and red hues beneath, a short obi tied around a tasset, with the coloration shifting closer to the bottom, where blues would take form. His hair was starting to shift to a silver coloration at its roots, but behind it is a black ponytail attached behind, likely fake but hard to tell, and his hair is more shaggy than it had been previous.

With a clack in each step, he approaches the stage, a blue little snake adorned upon his shoulders, the wooden geta clacking upon the stage, as a little blue dragon sits around his shoulders, a Dratini watching on.

Toothless the Dratini, watching the crowd with beady black eyes. There's a little bit of makeup on him, showing a tiny little x-shaped scar on his left cheek, a bandage on the bridge of his nose, and what looks like little scars over his tail. All makeup, though not done by Ashley.

He's no makeup artist. A friend though? Absolutely.

With an parasol behind him, Ashley spins on a heel of his geta, the parasol hiding him and his Pokemon, before a toss upwards with his left arm, little Toothless flying up with it as he coils around it and slithers on the floating parasol, leading towards the top, and creating from beneath it, a THUNDER WAVE coming from the center of the parasol, like that of a surge of lightning as it surges from around the metal ribs, and down the fabrics of the parasol, flowing off the tips like little lightning bolts propogating.

Electricity requires a ground state to exit, but Toothless' control in the Thunder Wave is to be as close to the parasol fabric as possible without touching the fabric. If done well enough in its downward arc, the illusion of it touching the parasol would stand, and Ashley would not be shocked by his own Pokemon.

Upon its descent, Ashley snatches the steel rod of the parasol, spins once more, hiding him and his Dratini, and appearing once more as he was. The Dratini with him, around his shoulder, before a bow.

His left hand stings a little. Not quite, but its as bad as static electricity from shifting over a rug a few too many times. It took him twenty-seven attempts at this before he got it right, and fifteen or more tries to get it consistent. He just hopes his opener thunder clap merits some level of excitement as the first contender up. No one would dare to underestimate the little Dratini now, he hoped.

mSTXOuPW
+10! Ty Dragon-Type!

Shades, DRIP, minus mask, minus hat
Isaac's words mean a lot, and Ashley can't help but nod in agreement with that last lesson. Healing and slowing down were important. It was something he knew all too well. A lesson learned late, but learned before a fatal end.

He notes the masquerade he would take Kep too, and his birthday wish in the surprise at the ice rink he wanted, or even making Snowboys together. He might take more time to recover with Kepler. Longer, if he needed it.

Still, when Matt speaks to him specifically, Ashley's silvers open, as he gives a smile, only met by a sagely nod and a plea to keep Aki away from this. With his other arm, he shoots a thumbs up.

"Good people don't join Rocket, guy. Not wholly good, anyways."

A lesson he learned all too well way back when. Those affected negatively in life, they find their way here. The League turns a blind eye to more than anyone likes to admit. If it wasn't true, than Ashley is a contradiction. It's the only way it makes sense. If the League were there, he is sure he'd have faced Isaac on Mt. Pyre as an enemy. Not a friend.

He just gives a nod to Matt. Letting him speak.

When Kepler makes a smart ass comment, Ashley takes it as a joke, chuckling. How can he not? It's funny! He sucked at games and Mankey Ball was an unfair monkey via simian battle of skill. It's Isaac that ends up selling it. Classic Isaac.

"I have opposable thumbs?! I always thought they were posable!" Ashley can't help but laugh more, turning his head up to Bongo who is hanging on the ceiling monkey bars, with a smug grin. "I'm kicking your butt next time, buddy." Bongo proceeded to make a raspberry, the tongue sticking out as he continues to climb and trapeize everywhere for exercise.

Hearing about the death trap was interesting, even if it was a terrifying prospect. Kepler's questions didn't lie on deaf ears, as he did call attention to it, and Ashley had to agree. "You mean, in the throws you around and kills you kinda way, right?" He has to make the comment, those Orre models were nuts looking. And Isaac WILLINGLY drove it! Long may the screaming metal death trap rest, and hopefully, without a screaming two boogaloo to replace it.

Hopefully, he doesn't hurt himself on it. If Sunshine is okay with it though...

Isaac does have a bit of a point with the workout aspect of battling, but Ashley interjects. "Maybe, but you have to remember, these are Pokemon that have so many capabilities. Bongo loves helping me in the kitchen, believe it or not. Bullet flies ontop the top shelves to get me spices when I need them. That's just a couple examples... but I do see the appeal. I just don't think the League-sanctioned ones are all that interesting." To him, its about as important as a sports game of indiscernable origin. He can see himself seeing it on the occasion, but he'll never hoot and holler over it.

Kepler wasn't wrong, because every time he sees that conventional one-vs-one format, Ash gags a little. Know what else is one-vs-one? Boxing.

Still, compelling arguments on speed chess... huh. "Never thought of it that way though. Hm. Battle of the mind." He trails off.

Mostly everyone is present.
