A Petal For Your Thoughts [M]

Just one day.[break][break]

The text message comes in. A little lunch date. It's a little more than friends, a little less than lovers. Tis the season, and a little more sightseeing helps the heart grow fonder. His smile always stays on his face, an edge to it that was hard to pin down. Was it sadness? Was it anger? Was it nothing at all?[break][break]

The little walk through the coming spring season, as the flowers would sit in full bloom, has him smile, as he holds his bouquet. White and purple hyacinth.[break][break]

The purple far outweigh the white, yet the white still blooms.[break][break]

"Seems I caught y'u out the exhibit, eh bonnie?" he flirts already in that deep northern Galarian accent, his smile hiding away that edge, as he brushes his hand towards the bouquet.[break][break]

"Stunn'n, Yu'na. Truly stunn'n." He can't just not remark on how she looks.

Yuina Higashi[break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Just one day... Duncan arrives, a bouquet of purple and white hyacinth.[break]
- Accent already, he calls Yuina bonnie again, calling her stunning.

The giggle has him grinning like a fool. Her blush is cute. Had he not been born into nobility, he would have considered offering her a hand, a date. His smile finds itself disappearing a spell, but reforms. When she sees the phone in his hands, he's careful not to overstep.[break][break]

Information begotten now, and in his hand now sits the information of a girl he found interesting. And he stares over it once or twice. Longingly.[break][break]

Again, that smile fades quietly for just a spell, but returns.[break][break]

"Nonsense, bonnie, I came for this exhibit," he shakes his head, pocketing his phone into his pocket. "-and I found something just as good to go with it." A flash of his white teeth, and a turn of his heel, he would take a moment to pivot his body sideways, ready to go.[break][break]

"Let's get lunch sometime, Yu'na." he doesn't bother to correct himself this time. But the smile he shoots her this time, is one showing a bit of interest.[break][break]

He hates leading her on.[break][break]

He wishes he didn't have to.[break][break]

The ball and chain sits behind him as it always has, as he pockets his hands to his jacket pockets. "Catch you around, pretty 'istorian."[break][break]

With that, he walks. Quietly through the museum halls, uninterested in the other exhibits.[break][break]

"Yuina, huh?"[break][break]

He correctly says to himself this time, without trouble, or desire to mistake it again. A bigger grin on his face, as Sparrow chirps on his shoulder.

Yuina Higashi [break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Duncan likes seeing Yuina blush. He likes seeing her to begin with, and admits that he simply came for this exhibit. More compliments.[break]
- Promise for lunch sometime? And he'll catch her around. Calls her pretty.[break]
- Moment he's out of sight, and earshot, he correctly says her name without any struggle. Sparrow chirps.

Good health is certainly a word! Even if it seemed his prior refusal to be addressed by his own status seemed to take his friend off guard, that polite smile quickly fixed mirrored his own.[break][break]

He held back a chuckle, returning the smile, and enjoying the menu when, as Julian responds to his comment over the king crab, he offers an appetizer. Some lobster bisque? Ah yes, when its cold in Galar, soup tastes fantastic. "That sounds quite wonderful, Julien," he traces a finger towards it, a little picture agreeing with his own imagination, before the waitress comes over.[break][break]

"Same for me, lass." the pleasant look on his face, dreamy a moment. When the waitress goes away, however...[break][break]

His smile shifts a little. One eye remains hidden. The other, opens and shows yellow, a gaze merely set to the vista outside, towards the sea. He observes everything he can without having to look Julien's way, but he always ensures one eye is visible to the Kalosian Ambassador.[break][break]

"While we await for our food... tell me of Kalos as of late, friend," he deeply inquires, warm in tone.

Julien Demassieux[break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Agreeable as ever, Duncan agrees and orders similar to Julien, wishing to dine on seafood galore today.[break]
- His tone shifts, staring to the sea, one eye showing to Julian at all times. He asks about Kalos. Best to get this part out of the water now.

Riding on a bus, he found many staring his way. It would be almost slightly uncomfortable, if it wasn't more-so fascinating. After all, so many people here didn't know, even fewer kept tabs of his arrival. Sure, there's Julien Demassieux, but that's someone who keeps eyes to the news. He knew of his coming.[break][break]

No. Today, he is to make his way to the estate. His to-be-wife's estate, and he does so without having to actually pay fare. A pretty face, a smile that feigned its own genuine edge, and a phone pays for his arrival.[break][break]

Not that he ever asked for it.[break][break]

"Thanks there, lass."[break][break]

Never bite the hand that feeds.[break][break]

By time he would enter into Rustboro, he's already carrying a travel brochure, and peeling through the pages, as he takes in the sights. Walking with little Pepper on his shoulder, the Nickit merely grins, as he pokes through it. The Devon Corp, the manufacturing hub... ah, this must be where all the Hoenn exports are made. Fascinating.[break][break]

It takes another half hour of meandering about, before Duncan reaches home. Well. His home for the time being. And even sooner than that, he quietly makes his way towards the door, like that of a commoner. He needs no helper, or escort. Directionally, he was challenged just enough to make it here late. A little too late.[break][break]

One doorbell ring later, and Duncan puts on his smile, a text message on his phone to be sent.[break][break]

Here. :winkyface:[break][break]

That'll do.

Estelle Valentine[break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Duncan took the bus, and is meandering about with a brochure of Rustboro. Oh yeah, he's enjoying the sights. Taking it all in.[break]
- As he arrives, rings the doorbell, and texts Estelle of his arrival. A smile on his face, never to leave it.

Sure was a cutie, this one! The little history lesson Yuina gave him was welcomed fully. Truly sad when history is lost, but it seems some level of distortion timey wimey rug-rolling made it possible for their return. Time and space were more Sinnoh's thing, which come to think of it, Jubilife WAS in Sinnoh. It all pieced itself together, when he realizes that.[break][break]

Still. Sad tale about Hisuian Zorua and Zoroark. Due to their own hospital environment, and the environment they found themselves in after their migration, it made sense why they had become ghosts.[break][break]

To Yuina's response, saying it was fine, he pauses a second, a beat sitting in the air, only to turn his head back around. "S'pose that's fair, in'it? Though you do better with Duncan than I do with Yu'na. Yu'na. Yu-In-A." Alright, there he goes chuckling again, watching her push those glasses back up. Flirty smile, dashingly handsome looks all the same, he just finds himself staring a second too long. Was he lost in her a spell?[break][break]

Damn.[break][break]

More Pokemon from Hisui?! That caught his attention, and the moment Delton makes an entrance, the yellow eye fixates on the Decidueye. That was a Decidueye, right? From what the books stated, it seemed more... red than he expected.[break][break]

With a hand to his chin, he can't help but rub the rugged face, staring at Delton. He was no less impressed. You don't see a little bit of history every day. Though he was used to it. "Guess I better keep'n contact with ya, eh bonnie?" he reaches into his jacket, holding out his phone with what looked like a little Nickit sticker on a lavish red phone case likely costing a fortune itself. Hiding his phone screen, he heads to the contacts, and holds it out for her. "Might be a bit furward, but can I get y'ur number, Yu'na?"[break][break]

Alright, typed upon the name, is Yuna in the first name.

Yuina Higashi[break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Waits for the history lesson to be at its conclusion before her response to his mispronunciation leads to a little chuckle.[break]
- Seeing Delton come in, he moves to pull out his phone. He doesn't want to forget this, so he asks for her number.[break]
- Note: Bonnie in Scottish means 'beautiful' or attractive.

"Few years too young to be considered a Grace, isn't it friend?" the entering silver-haired fox of a man speaks in a deep Northern Galarian accent. When his hand moves to clasp around Julien's, he gives a firm, strong handshake to the oh-so-slightly taller gentleman, before pulling the chair out to sit down. He's in his black leather jacket, hair done up in the long ponytail. Some might consider it unkempt, but he preferred it. Keeping it fluffy like this and all.[break][break]

"You're looking well, Julien! Or should I say monsieur?" The way he chuckles is friendly, light, airy.[break][break]

Business and pleasure, regardless of which, Duncan always has a smile on his face. What sits behind those golden eyes is anyone's guess.[break][break]

Moment he does take pause, his eyes immediately gaze at all the seafood options, and he's quick to pick it up, trailing a finger down the menu. "Ooooh, isn't that fitting, a king crab for scran." He knows it's a matter of time before they talk business. It's not stalling for time, just small talk. Duncan knows that soon he'll have to take the role of Duke, and Julien his own role as Kalosian Ambassador. This would inevitably turn to business, but for now, a little small talk.[break][break]

He'll let Julien set the pace for now.

Julien Demassieux [break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Wasting no time on arrival, Duncan is quick to take that hand and sit down, eyeing the menu to make some small talk.[break]
- Sees the menu, and quickly starts talking about what's on it, interested in king crab. Smile always on his face. He'll let Julien set the pace.

Pink fades to red. Perhaps Duncan was having a little too much fun. But the way she almost seemed like she didn't know herself that well... his smile shrinks a bit, but recovers its same size. Perhaps... he too...[break][break]

Hm.[break][break]

Sure enough, she readjusts. She's able to catch herself back in her hands, those cute little fidgety hands that sit in front of her skirt. Her excitement was something she was confident in, and the eagerness is not lost in him. Passion. That's what he reads on her. And when she finishes, even noting that some had come with her today, here to the exhibit, little Sparrow begins to take flight towards Moroe. Duncan's golden eye rests on them, and he leans down.[break][break]

A Zorua. No, not a Zorua. It's something different. Yet, it is. With a hand clasped to his more rugged chin, his smile shrinks, but the moment Sparrow would perch nearby, he merely tweets a little song, a tune whistled out through the beak to the Zorua.[break][break]

"Aye. Truly fascinatin'. Nev'r seen this subspecies. 'ello there, little one." He wanted to return passion back, share in her love of Hisui that she clearly had, but it is not something easy to fabricate. Sparrow had it covered though, as he turns back towards cute historian.[break][break]

"Got anymore, Yu'na? Ah, there I go ag'in. Yu-In-A. Yu'na." there he goes putting on the charm again almost to eleven. He wasn't careful, he'd make this random commoner have a crush on him.[break][break]

Maybe he just wanted her to be confident in that moment. Speaking on a topic she loved, that would help. Or maybe he got his sick kicks out of making such riff-raff blush? Who knew what Duncan felt behind his smile?

Yuina Higashi[break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- He finds Yuina quite pleasant, and seeing her face go that red, he is having a fun time. As she talks about Hisui, he can tell she loves it and adores it.[break]
- Seeing the Zorua has fascinates him. He asks if she's got anymore, saying her name again, phonetically and then again, fumbles. His accent getting the works today! For Yuina's hearing pleasure!

It really was fascinating, and Duncan enjoys the conversation. The way his shoulders just relax pleasantly, as if he's not holding his breath, and how he's attentive to every one of her words. She's shorter than him, a plus, smart. The way she seemed so gung-ho over history is admirable. Though for Duncan, there's just a wee bit more he likes.[break][break]

He likes the way her cheeks flush so brilliantly pink when he so happens to lay down a little compliment. The way he shows his perfect set of teeth make it harder, he's sure. And so when she clasps her hands together, and reveals her name...[break][break]

"Ah. Pretty 'istorian does have one," he chuckles, a hand coming to his lips, as he tries to be a little more polite. As such, he presses a finger to his temple. "Yu'na. I'll remember it well, lass. W'enever I think of Hisui, you'll be 'un my mind." Yeah, he's definitely enjoying seeing himself.[break][break]

He remembers that this, is how things always lean to the fake pregnancy accusations, and though his smile doesn't falter, he does reel back, just a bit as he eyes the Ursaluna types now.[break][break]

"How many species 'ave found their'oots in 'isui? Got a number, Yu'na?" He just barely misses the I in her name, a problem with his accent that he'll have to learn how to buffer out. Since yes, he does want to see her again. He says it again. "Yu-In-A," he mutters to himself.

Yuina Higashi [break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- A little more flirty, but he cannot get her name right. Keeps saying Yu-na, not Yu-in-a.[break]
- Begins asking about Hisui species, more curious on them, but recites the name again to himself. He's having trouble getting the name just right.

Ah. How scandalous it would be, to get with what looks to be a studious librarian type. Not that the thought ever passed his mind. But by round frame alone, the glasses sat beautifully upon the bridge of her nose. A misconception, perhaps, but there was definitely a smart woman behind the glass, those brown eyes lovely. To that, even the white blouse, the skirt. All of it together has his smile grow a step more.[break][break]

Duncan almost never stopped smiling.[break][break]

"Oh? A new section of the exhib't?" His tone, once again colored by Galarian tongues, comes out as his lovely yellow eye peers out to gaze upon her. Though he never takes it much further than looking to her eyes. "Excitin', that," he chimes back, a little flirty, a little sweet, as he can't help himself but to show interest.[break][break]

If only.[break][break]

She lets the girl talk, showing Hisui off, a digital rendering of Jubilife Village, some information on Ursaluna. It was all impressive, quite astonishing. It's almost like the lass had been there the whole time.[break][break]

Only when she finishes, letting him look at everything, and Sparrow chimed out from his shoulder, that Duncan finally responds. "Lot'a things you can learn from a wee bit'a hist'ry," he adds in. "Nev'r have I seen such eye for detail." Though, how easily it could be to make up. He makes sure to take everything with a grin of salt.[break][break]

"Y'ur name, lass? Don'think callin' you pretty historian is all that flatterin', do'you? Mine's Duncan," his smile never falters, but his one showing eye is dangerously half-lidded to show interest.

Yuina Higashi[break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Writing accents can be a bit hard. Translation can be given if needed![break]
- Hearing about the Hisui exhibit, Duncan gives a compliment and looks over the exhibit. And compliments Yuina. Showing interest.[break]
- He's acting so charming. Introduces himself as Duncan. He leaves out the surname...

Ah. Dragons.[break][break]

Magnificent beasts. A Hammerlocke specialty.[break][break]

Envy colors his heart, at the majestic nature that they had, but today was less pleasant. Today, he would go to assist, not by lieu of some job, but by his own volition. Because he felt like it. Well, partially. The Galarian Embassy was important to protect too. Which meant, he would have to be more forthcoming with his nature. Something he hated to do.[break][break]

Still. In his suit, as he loosened his tie completely, he holds his little Popplio, Fantasia, in a harness around himself, letting the little sea lion happily indulge. He just seemed like a happy, overly dressed babysitter, and for the moment, he was just that. Duncan the Babysitter.[break][break]

Then his eyes meet Elise Calcifet's. And any semblance of Duncan the Babysitter dies for the Duke of Hammerlocke.[break][break]

"Cousin." He says. He stands up straighter, a smile on his face. He was never seen without a smile, and this was no different. "Pleasure to see you again, even in such tumultuous times." he starts, a hand running through his fluffy white hair. "May I perchance, assist you?"

Elise Calcifet[break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Duncan arrives nearby, suited up, with Fantasia in a harness on his chest.[break]
- Greets Elise, and asks if he can assist!

History is so easily rewritten.[break][break]

The black leather jacket sits upon his form, the massive man known as Duncan quietly tucks his way into a museum, a pair of sunglasses to cover his eyes, to obscure his identity. Once he's indoors, he pockets them, patiently walking over the floor of the museum itself. By snatching a pamplet, he would begin his once over of the interior and exhibits. A little map to assist in where, explanations of exhibits on the what.[break][break]

That's when he peers and sees that lovely little word. Hisui. A brow raises. There was set to be one soon. An exhibit for Hisuian History. Fascinating. He'd read in a book once or twice, having to be learned of the world. Now the world seemed intent to remember what can easily be forgotten.[break][break]

Still. Upon poking his head in, a lovely woman of fair brown hair stands, cleaning. She reminds him of maids, cleaning his estate in Hammerlocke. But this was a commoner, and so he did his best to act the part.[break][break]

Duncan, the oblivious fool. The sheep.[break][break]

"'ello there! Is the Hisuian Exhibit not open to the public?" he asks, Galarian-descent easy to tell by tone and accent alone. He stands tall, tall as 6'1'', with fair white hair. A golden gaze from one eye, the other hidden behind long hair that was styled into a big ponytail. On his shoulder, a little Wattrel, who chirps pleasantly. That was his little Sparrow.[break][break]

"I'm not too early, am I?"[break][break]

A charming smile. He often loved to flirt with commoners. It's only ever skin deep. He made be engaged, but his engagement ring isn't on right now, tucked away within his pocket, an easy escape if things get too heated.

Yuina Higashi [break][break]

NOTES

- OUTFIT[break]
- Charming Duncan takes Sparrow the Wattrel to the Museum! Yippee! Hey look, a Hisuian exhibit![break]
- Entering in, and getting Yuina's attention, the man is putting on the charms. No wedding ring ON.

Duncan's Plotter

POSTED ON Jan 14, 2024 0:26:52 GMT

DUNCAN CALCIFET

Not gonna cap, Duncan Calficet exists first and foremost, as a character idea asked of me from Arti, and the perfect storm came what with Jing Yuan. Add the two together, a little questioning to Oslo, and hence, here he is.

Duncan's characterization is best described by the hit Broadway show, Hamilton. If you know who Aaron Burr is, congratulations. You have a lot of the recipe I gave to Duncan. A charming man, who prefers to wait and see how things turn out before flipping the top card of the deck, to see where things land. Many might consider him to be a slothful man who prefers leisure to business, and while they may seem true at first...

There is more to everything than what first meets the eye. The Duke of Hammerlocke can, and has been known to, be cruel when benefits do not work for him or his people. He shows care for the Galarian people, and though the Hoenn factional war does not matter much to him, if it benefits Galar, he will listen. Negotiation will work 60/40, and he will never be the lower number without fighting tooth or nail.

He does, however, believe himself to be the smartest in the room. I usually play dumb characters, or at least, not the most conventionally book smart. Jack Magnus is the clearest exception, but I also believe he doesn't have his shit together fully. For once, I want to play the smartest person in the room, who always is in control. I'm not going to put an IQ number to him though. Actions speak louder than words, and what he does, I hope, will demonstrate my desire to play smarter than just saying 'he's smart'.

Ashley Shepard may be too dumb to live but cursed to do so. Genevieve Cromwell might be my sweet little determinator. Troy MacQueen may be my dysphoric sociopath killer. and Jack Magnus might be my flirty and zesty gang leader. But Duncan Calcifet is his own beast.

CHARACTER INSPIRATIONS

WHAT DRIVES ME

So, what does Duncan want then? Well, this is separated into two categories: for himself and for Galar

Himself: I don't mean to troll, but his is part of the game. I'm giving this information easily. He won't say much himself, but a hint will suffice; he does want something. By looking between the lines, one can see quite a lot. Think of it like a puzzle.

Galar: This one he wears on his sleeve. He wants better for Galar. But to which side has he aligned himself with? He is in Hoenn to see about Remiel Calcifet by the Queen, forced into a marriage he does not want with Estelle Valentine by that same Queen. So in what way does he want betterment for Galar? Well, the people clearly. But is that all there is?

HERE IS WHAT HE WANTS

Two faces: The Duke of Hammerlocke and the Man simply known as Duncan. What do you have to offer him?

For Duncan

Genuine relationships. Duncan is a genuine person. The moment you know his status, it taints your view of him. If you know him as Duke, it colors his thoughts on you too.
Friendships. Enjoying life's quiet moments are a big part of Duncan's life. In a way, it's almost cathartic.
Smarts and wits make him pause, and play with banter. He loves banter.
Past flings / Exs.

For the Duke of Hammerlocke

Suitors who never worked out or were rejected. He's done it a lot. He's cold in that way. He will act coldly to them.
Deals for Galar's betterment. Ties to the negotiation and political world are fine by him. He was taught how to be the Duke!
- Be warned, by wanting the above, anything that hinders Galar's image, or might, will lead to a cut off from Duncan.
SECRET

RELATIONSHIPS

Remiel Calcifet - "My cousin and future king of Galar."
Elise Calcifet - "Another cousin, and I believe the ambassador."
Estelle Valentine - "My fiancée. Not by choice."
