The bartender nods and moves to make the drink requested by the new patron. She makes exactly what was ordered of her, and along with the napkin that she slides over the counter to accompany the drink is a piece of paper neatly hidden between the folds.[break][break]

"Welcome to Icarus."[break][break]

On the piece of paper, the patron will find a line of morse that translates to the knock that needs to be sounded on the owner's door.[break][break]

Meanwhile, said owner reclines on the leather chair that sits behind his wooden desk, leaning over the surface as he examines his reflection in the circular mirror that stands on top. There's a stick of eyeliner in one hand with which he carefully draws on a thin, black line over his right eyelid, reapplying what had smudged just a minute ago.[break]

"Do you have a role model? If so, who is it, and why?"


Aris flashes a playful smile. "Myself, of course. Why would I need to look up to anyone else when I'm perfectly content with how I do things?"

"What’s the best and worst relationship advice you've ever received or given?"


He rolls his eyes and throws his head back in exasperation. "Oh, I'm sure Cato has already answered this for me, which is really funny because he's the last person who should be giving relationship advice to anyone." Aris raises his head. "I keep telling him to stop looking like his Smeargle just got murdered, maybe then he'd get some action."

"Would you still love a loved one if they were a Wurmple?"


He purses his lips and tilts his head as he ponders the question. His real answer? I'd let my Houndour rip them apart and put them out of their misery. "I'd keep them around and care for them like my other Pokemon. I think they'd get along great with my little friend here," he chuckles, scratching the Houndour on his lap under her chin.

"Do you have a quote/proverb/lyrics that changed your life? If yes, what is it?"


A gentle smile sits on his face. “In order to rise from its own ashes a phoenix first must burn.”

"What is the biggest lie you've told?"


Aris lets out a little laugh, his turquoise eyes twinkling with something a little more than humour. "I think it's best not to reveal my lies. Doesn't that go against the purpose of lying?"

"What big or small thing would you do to bring a little more joy into the world?"


"I think my smile does plenty, does it not?" Aris demonstrates his effortless, bright smile and underpins it with a wink.

"If you had to kill someone, could you?"


"Oh, goodness, no!" he chuckles, his Houndour shaking in his lap with the movement. Not by my own hand. The Pokemon points her snout upwards and lightly licks Aris' chin.

"...and then what happened?" the little boy asked.[break][break]

"and then," the mother replied. "he crashed into the sea before he could taste freedom."[break][break]

the little boy frowned. freedom? is it not freedom to be able to reach so high in the sky, diving in and out of clouds and flying alongside birds? if the boy in the story were to land, would he not be hunted for the rest of his life, leaving him forever afraid and uneasy?[break][break]

if the land is as dangerous as the sky, and if he is to crash eventually, why not reach out as high as he can?[break][break]

"Cato," you answer your best friend, a pen twirling between your fingers as you lean over the desk. "It's either the quiet way," you pause, giving them a knowing look before your eyes shift to the girl nearby. "Or the loud way."[break][break]

Cato and Cassidy, your two partners in crime.[break][break]

Icarus is almost ready. The club, with you named as the owner, is a little project that was started by the higher-ups at team rocket. Keep the drinks flowing and the money will flow back, they said, but most importantly, provide a safe space for any communications and dealings between HQ and the field agents.[break][break]

If you see a nosy customer moving too close to the back rooms, lead them away.[break][break]

If you see a health inspector trying to peek into the kitchen freezer, lead them away.[break][break]

If you see someone trying to act like a hero by venturing into the labyrinthian basement, lead them away.[break][break]

You get the gist.[break][break]

Cato snatches the pen out of your hand, but the action only puts a smile on your lips.[break][break]

"a liquor licence. that's all i need."[break][break]
