Ah! Sorry about not being too active lately! Work has been super busy lately, but no worries! I have off today AND tomorrow, and not only that, but my muse is pretty strong right now. So I’ll get to replies (I see some characters I would love to interact with that just joined the group~ So I can take a few more threads).

Δ ♡ (either Cynthia is doing this to Platinum or vise versa~ I'll leave that up to you! <3 )

send one for my muse’s reaction to your muse–Δ = playing with their hair . ❤ = kissing them .

     Cynthia watched with amazement as her fingers ran through Platinum’s midnight-blue locks; the strands were so soft, and there were no tangles present to offer any form of resistance. What did she use to make it smell so nice? The scent tickled the champion’s nostrils, as if pushing her to get closer to the source. The urge managed to contain itself by some miracle, but the intent must have carried through– before Cynthia had time to speak, Platinum’s head had whipped around and pressed their lips together, effectively disturbing the waterfall braid the blonde was working on.

     The contact was brief, and their lips had parted before Cynthia could count to two; it was still enough to make her stomach flutter. She had never bothered with delving into physical relations, and she feared that the blush that formed on her face gave her away. That must have been Cynthia’s…what? Second kiss? The young woman pressed a hand to her mouth in her flustered state, a poor job in an attempt to conceal her emotions.

     “P-Platinum…? Is everything alright…?” A pause. “Oh! I u-understand now…It’s sort of hot in here, right? The heat must be getting to you. I– I’ll go open up the windows!”

[dxstortionqueen-blog]

     ♔ - } She couldn’t remember how exactly she got into this situation. The champion of the Sinnoh League was playing with her hair. Her hair. Cynthia’s fingers was touching her hair this very moment. Her eyes had closed and a gentle smile cracked upon her lips. Her fingers were so gentle on her head. Did the champion think she was delicate that she didn’t want to harm her? A light chuckle escaped past her lips before she turned around to face the blonde, only to find her lips come in contact with Cynthia’s.      In an instant, she felt her face fluster, mostly from embarrassment. When did she get closer to her? Why was she getting closer to her? Ah! Why hasn’t she broke this kiss yet? Their lips finally parted after a short moment (though it felt like it lasted a while) and she brought a hand to her mouth, waiting for the champion to yell at her and push her away. Her eyes scanned Cynthia’s face, waiting for it to turn sour yet only to find it tinted pink. Was she also flustered by such action?      Platinum went silent, taking in what just happened. She was expecting to be yelled at, but she didn’t; instead she just got a flustered champion. What could she do? For a moment, she listened to her words, taking in each word and what she said. Another pause, until..

     The ebony haired trainer started laughing. She laughed at the situation and how they were acting. “Oh, it must be.” Platinum finally managed to say. “The heat can do such silly things to a person’s mind.” Such an interesting night this was turning out to be.

{{  dxstortionqueen   }}

     There’s a tale that circuits every now and then in the thin walls of Ecruteak Tower, it slips fear and darkness into the heart of those that are weak and worry for the world to come.  A tale of a young girl who slipped into another world - a world filled with rage and darkness and nightmares.  Her name is merely muttered on the lips, until today, however.  Answers are needed as to why - no, how she was able to slip there and continue to do so even to this day.  The Elder hands down a scroll and it finds Kagura’s hand, where she reveals the task at hand.  Her Pokeballs are handed back and before she can slip out that door someone breaks their silence and urges her to be careful.  Lips curl to form a smile that dismiss’  her eyes and out she goes to find the Distortion Queen herself.  

     Most people who have experienced that kind of trauma don’t recover.  They don’t walk the paths that lead them to other cities and smile - they’re a broken mess of nightmares and agony until finally they cut the cord to their own life or this world and just slip into a darkness that no one can get them out of.  Into a place that not even the Ghost Pokemon like Haunter would want to explore with Nightmare.  It’s messy, and Dawn seems to welcome that kind of thing.  There has to be answers.  

    Kagura takes one last look to the city that raised her, the two towers of death and rebirth - there’s a small flicker of light that casts from the peak of one, a signal of hope and protection across the land.  Ho-Oh will be coming to land soon, so it’s time to travel.  Where to?  A new place, a destination, something else to pick up on her travels.  The boat at Olivine blows it’s horn in a final farewell to Johto, and as they cross the barren sea and night falls like a heavy blanket it’s evident what to do.  

     They land in Sinnoh in the evening of the next day, a town called Veilstone.  It doesn’t take long for her to find a path that leads somewhere else, and she’ll wander around until eventually Dawn shows up.  Her home is Twinleaf so that may be a start, but perhaps they’d meet before then - until now, Kagura walks the path with Akatsu at her side faithfully.  Her fingers unlatch the clip from her hair to let it fall loosely down her back, anything to break free from the typical clothe worn back home.  A day or two passes until finally on a route Espeon’s ears twitch, sensing something coming close.  A frail girl with a dark aura - but it isn’t dangerous.  It’s welcomed, which is odd - and it’s not long before she’s recognized as Dawn herself.  Kagura nods down to partner before moving to intercept the young trainer.  

     “Excuse me, miss…  You are Dawn, correct?”  

     ♔ - } They come for you.

     The ebony hair trainer watched a group of trainers gather at the ruins right in the middle of Celestic Town. She remembered the first time she arrived here, learning about the creation trio and their master. That was such a long time ago. How clueless she was before she had learned and even encountered the trio and master.      She’s close. Be wary. She knows of you and where you have been. Platinum leaned back on the bench she was currently on, her eyes still focused on the group before her. None of them seem to have noticed her, so who exactly was coming? At first she thought it was Cynthia, being that she was in the champion’s hometown, but the said champion was no where to be found. Her eyes, darkened and narrowed, scanned the area, looking between each person to find who looked suspicious enough to  be out looking for her. So far, nothing. The trainer shook her head, putting a hand to her face to gently press against her forehead. Was she really going insane again to be paranoid by this voice’s words? Arceus, she hoped not.      Sitting beside her was her Lucario, Duke, who was also watching over the gathering before them. Behind them both was her Garchomp, Czar, who was currently trying to capture his trainer’s attention by lightly nudging her shoulder. The dragon frowned when he received a light groan at first, but his tail swayed from side to side when she turned around to pet his scaly nose. The ground shark grunted happily, gently nuzzling into her hand.      “Come on, you two. There’s nothing for us here, at least not at this moment.” She spoke with a sigh before standing up and taking a moment to stretch. The voice inside her head was silent, so that must have been a sign that she was right and she can finally move on. “We need to do a bit more training anyways with that megastone, Czar.” It was only recently that she had found and learned about mega-evolution. Only her Garchomp has taken on that very role to mega-evolve and so far, it still needed work. The dragon grunted, lowering his head for he knew that it was only a matter of time. The first time he did mega-evolve, it didn’t end at a happy note.      The three of them started to head east towards Veilstone, silence befalling over them. Lucario didn’t wish to say anything, knowing that his trainer was deep in thought and he wasn’t sure how to bring up the topic of this ‘voice’ that has been bothering Platinum for a while.      ‘”Excuse me, miss... You are Dawn, correct?”’      Dawn. No one calls her by that name with the exception of close friends and family. She paused in her tracks, focusing her eyes to the owner of the voice who had called her by one of her nicknames, only to find a woman she has never seen before. Glancing over the attire, she couldn’t recognize where she was from. Certainly not from Sinnoh.      She found you.

     Her body froze when the voice in her mind spoke up again. This was the woman she was warned about; yet, was this woman really a danger to her? Was it just coincidence that this other trainer just happen to know one of her nicknames? Could this woman really know about that?      “Uhm..” Realizing she has yet to respond, mostly from still being shocked and a bit confused while she wondered who this person was, she quickly answered before making it seem too suspicious. “Yes. That is correct. Though, I would prefer if you called me Platinum. Have we met before?” Of course the answer was no, but maybe by chance this was just a fan of hers and her paranoia was getting the best of her from the voice inside her head.

Taste Testing || Platinum & Wally

[dxstortionqueen-blog]

ghastlyxsun:

At the mention of the specially made poffin, Roserade perks up even more. In fact, Wally has only seen this kind of behavior on the usually calm Roserade when they win a battle. His Roserade is more collected than the Pokemon he has on his team; she’s always the one being depended on when taking harsher and stricter tasks. But Roserade’s shy grin slowly flutters into a gleam. She fervently takes the poffin from the trainer’s hands and gingerly munches on the treat. 

Wally watches his Pokemon take a bite, waiting for his Roserade’s face to shudder in blithe - and after a few lingering moments, it does. Roserade’s eyes widen a fracture before she swallows the poffin whole. When she finishes, she turns to Wally and gestures for him to come closer. 

He curiously bends down closer to Roserade’s height. Still propped on his shoulders, Talonflame narrows the distance with the same ardent nature. Roserade excitedly pushes her flowers towards them, letting them take a sniff of the blooming garden poking at her hands. Wally isn’t sure how long the poffin is going to take effect, but he’s guessing that it’s starting to. Roserade’s flowers do seem to glow now, like spring candles, and her scent is definitely more lively, nearly the wild gust of lavender and lilies. 

“You’re even more beautiful now, Roserade,” Wally says. He lets out a smile, tilting his head to the side, completely oblivious to the growing blush on Roserade’s cheeks when she gathers the compliment he’s given. Before Roserade can mutter or give out a reply, Lucario steps in front of him, offering him one of the remaining pieces of the poffins. 

“O-Oh!” Wally chuckles softly. He straightens up as Roserade regains her lost composure. He plucks out the poffin from the case and takes a tiny bite, letting the treat trickle down his throat. It’s definitely a lot sweeter than he expected, but the good kind. Wally almost feels like he’s been thrown back into his childhood. “This is really good! I bet your trainer makes you really happy with this, doesn’t she?” 

When the other trainer speaks, Wally shyly swerves his head toward her. He’s been too much of a bother already; he doesn’t want to abuse her kindness. “I-Is it okay if I h-help?” Wally ducks his head, trying to loosen the tightness of his collar. “I w-want to give some to my o-other Pokemon as well. A-Ah, I’m Wally, by the w-way.” He finally inhales a few ounces of courage and looks at her. “Thank you for the poffins, and please, let me help you make them.” 

    ♔ - } She watched the Roserade’s reaction, causing her to chuckle softly. Of course the effects would fully appear after a while, but she didn’t want to ruin the moment. That would be just rude! “I agree! It seems like my poffins are doing their job to make you even more beautiful than ever!” A soft giggle escaped past her lips before she watched her own Lucario hand out the treat, watching the other trainer take one and finally able to enjoy one himself.     < “Ah! Yes! We always look forward to getting one of these either after a battle or right before a contest.” > Lucario answered happily, taking a poffin for himself and finally taking a bite. There was a soft moan of pleasure as his mouth was filled with the sweet taste.     Platinum turned her attention to the other trainer after hearing the question if he could help. Nothing pleased her more than to teach other trainers her little tricks and maybe some secret ingredients. If it helps them treat their Pokemon better, than how could she say no? A wide smile appeared on her face as she nodded. “I wouldn’t mind an extra set of hands to help bake more poffins. They’re pretty simple to make, and even if you haven’t done baking before, I’ll be there to help~” Her hands perched onto her hips as she finally returned her own introduction.

    “A pleasure to meet you, Wally. You may call me Platinum. I’m also known as the Black Swan, at least in the Sinnoh region. I haven’t done too many contests here in Hoenn yet, but it is on the top of my list to do.” She paused. Was she talking too much again? Her excitement tends to make her talk a tad bit too much at times. She really needs to keep herself in check better. Shaking the thought away, the ebony haired trainer waved her hand to let Wally know to follow her to the kitchen. “Lets get baking. We wouldn’t want to wait too much longer otherwise we might be baking throughout the whole night.” She laughed. Of course, it wouldn’t have been the first time for her, but she was able to do so. With another trainer helping, she wouldn’t want to keep him up throughout the night, too.     Once in the kitchen, she glanced around, her eyes catching the items that they would need for baking poffins. The materials looked clean and ready to go, waiting to make some treats for Pokemon and trainers alike. “Alright! So, have you ever some poffins or something similar before, Wally?” Even if he did look unsure when they were offered poffins, she still had to double check to see if he knew how to bake. That would determine if she needed to explain each step or if she would only explain certain ingredients that she uses in her poffins.

1) How would you describe your relationship with your mom/dad

“I talk to my parents every once in a while. It’s nice to talk to them and let them know of any big contests since I know they’ll be wanting to watch their little girl. Our relationship is a bit shaky, especially after my travels.. but I know that they try their best to keep an open mind.”

11) What are your ambitions

“To become one of the greatest Pokemon Coordinator in the world. As well as visiting and learning more of each region, even my home region. Other than that? I like to start small with big goals.”

17) What ‘small things’ things terrify you

“’Small things’? Well, they may be small for you, but not looking my best for a show always terrifies me. Even after I stand in front of the mirror hours before hand, there’s still that chance that something could go wrong. Does my outfit look alright? Is my hair frizzy? Is there something on my face? What about what to say? Does everything I’m about to say going to sound professional and yet catch the attention of the majority, or hopefully, all of the audience? Even if these contests are all about my Pokemon, they still look at the trainers/coordinators and make sure that you look grand, too.”

4) Do you smile at strangers

“Sure! But only when I’m in a good mood. I have my days when I’m not in the mood for any company but my own Pokemon. Of course, it also helps when the stranger returns the smile if I do give one first.”

6) How is your life different now from two years ago

“Well, I’ll tell you one thing, two years ago I didn’t compete in so many contests. Two years ago, there were less nightmares and whispers. Two years ago, I haven’t come to terms with this being that haunts me, nor with the devil that whispers to me daily. Two years ago, I was a trainer, but now I’m a champion that has seen many things.”

10) Do you believe in ghosts

She froze in place, silence overtaking her. Her eyes shifted shakily as a sudden image of the being that haunted her appeared in her mind. Her heart raced faster than normal, as if she ran a marathon. Blue and red eyes kept flashing into her mind, one seem kinder than the other; but the red eyes... those eyes glared at her through her mind, and she could hear the growling deep in her head.Her Lucario stepped in, protecting her from anyone and anything, the best he could.< “We both know that there are ghost type Pokemon, and she believes a couple of them are... haunting her..” >

13) What is one thing you’ll never do again

“Lose control during a battle.. I can’t promise that it won’t happen again, but I, with the help of my Pokemon, try not to lose control. Last time... I almost killed another trainer’s Pokemon... and they were innocent..”

Taste Testing || Platinum & Wally

[dxstortionqueen-blog]

ghastlyxsun:

Should he take a risk with the poffins and taste one? Or should he politely refuse the stranger and walk away? Wally takes a glance down at the poffins and purses his lips in thought. Well, there’s nothing wrong with taking a poffin, right? The girl seems awfully genuine, and her Pokemon looks rather proud of his trainer’s creations. Besides, it’s not like Wally knows how to decline a delicious treat. 

“What do you think, Talonflame?” Wally peers up at the fire bird, and the Pokemon gently bumps his beak into his trainer’s nose. Wally rubs the tip of his nose and smiles slowly. “I’m guessing that’s a yes, then? It does look quite good, doesn’t it? What about you, Roserade?” 

The grass Pokemon stands at his side, eagerly pointing the bouquet of her hands at the poffin case, signalling her answer. Roserade grins at Wally with excitement, nearly hopping on the curves of her feet when Lucario lowers the poffin case closer to her height. 

“That’s a yes, then, too, eh?” Wally lets out a soft chuckle, covering his mouth with a palm. “All right!” He faces Lucario and his trainer, immediately regretting the moment he makes eye contact. But he ignores the shuddering feeling, trying to swallow back the stutter about to break loose. “W-We’ll be taking a p-poffin i-if it’s all right with y-you.” 

Wally reaches out at the poffin case, gingerly placing the round treat in between his fingers. He holds out the poffin at Talonflame as the bird Pokemon lowers his head to pry open his beak. The Pokemon takes a tiny bite out of the poffin, munching on the soft delicacy before chirping in glee. 

“You like it a lot, Talonflame?” 

His bird Pokemon makes a blithe and steady hawk in reply. He takes another bite at the poffin, and then he swallows the whole thing down his throat, his voice crowing as the poffin melts right on the roof of his mouth. Wally has never seen his Pokemon love a treat so much; not even pokeblocks can have this much effect on him. 

“Since Talonflame likes it, I’m sure you’ll do, too, Roserade!” Wally turns back to the determined Lucario. “C-Can I also take one f-for my Roserade?”

     ♔ - } Platinum couldn’t help but chuckle at the Talonflame’s reaction when taking a bite of the poffin. It was one of the greatest things for her to watch, simply enjoying the joy the Pokemon was going through while tasting the delicious treat. She glances over to her Lucario, who had a big grin on his face, happy to see that the Pokemon was enjoying the treat, too. He would never lie about such a thing.       Hearing the question if his Roserade could have a poffin, too, the trainer simply nodded her head with a friendly smile. “Of course! I think I actually have a poffin in there that is specifically for a Roserade.” She leaned over to take the case, looking over at the leftover treats before grabbing one and handing it to the grass-type Pokemon. “You see, I have a Roserade as well, and she’s one of my stars in contests.”

     < “A diva, if you ask me..” > Lucario muttered, rolling his eyes a bit only to be hushed by his trainer.      “Now, this poffin, that is specifically made for a Roserade, has a lot of the nutrients they would need, plus some ingredients that will help the flowers bloom with a more vibrant and healthier looking colors. It will also help improve the aroma.” She waited a moment to finally watch for the Roserade’s reaction to this special poffin.      Lucario, meanwhile, snagged a poffin and went in front of the other trainer. < “Would you care to try one as well?” > He tilted his head as he questioned.

     Platinum glanced over and widened her smile. “You are more than welcome to try one, as well. Then I need to head to the kitchen and start making more.” Taking a quick peek in the case once more, she noticed that there were only three left, after giving one to Talonflame, Roserade, and the other trainer. “Hm, if I enough ingredients, I could make a few special ones for your Pokemon, if you’re interested, though, I’m sure the Center wouldn’t mind me borrowing some of their materials.”

Taste Testing || Platinum & Wally

[dxstortionqueen-blog]

ghastlyxsun:

After the consistently harsh battles with the trainers at the Battle Maison, Wally feels a little worn out. His shoulders are slumped, and his eyes are drooping, but he feels a vivid sense of victory after beating the seven trainers with ferocity. Every single one of them had different kinds of Pokemon, and his team couldn’t always cope up with the severe disadvantage. But Talonflame and Roserade managed to sweep the battle floors with sheer power. For that, Wally is both proud and grateful for them. 

“You guys sure worked extra hard this time, didn’t you?” Wally smiles up at Talonflame, the fire bird Pokemon perched up on his shoulders. His long wings are resting on top of Wally’s head, the warm afternoon color of his feathers gleaming under the light of the Pokemon Center. Talonflame peeks at Wally from behind, nodding in response as a tired chirp exits from his beak. There are a few scratches on the fire bird’s curved belly and the disarming sharpness of his feet. But the Pokemon nurse has already wrapped it with gauze to ease out the slight bleeding. 

Beside him, Roserade is sitting on the couch, grasping a few uneven breaths. She looks up at Wally when her friend praises them. She beams at Wally, reaching up to carefully point one of her flowers on the tip of his nose. Wally hides his face when he lets out a sneeze, but he pats Roserade on the soft bow of her head all the same. 

“It was hard fighting that ice Pokemon, wasn’t it, Roserade?” He tilts his head to the side. “But we still won in the end, and it’s all thanks to you.” 

Both of his Pokemon nuzzle him with loving ease. Wally feels a burning flush rise up his chest. Another grin makes its way to his lips, and he has to resist the urge to cry a little in euphoria. Without his Pokemon, he wouldn’t be here today - enjoying the mirages of the Pokemon world, tired and burned out in Pokemon Centers, witnessing every bruise and scar he’s ever encountered. He’d always imagined himself living a mediocre life at Petalburg City, watching Pokemon trainers battle with Norman, the Petalburg City Gym leader. But here he is, and this is the one future he never thought he’d get to keep. 

It isn’t until he hears a short rumble that he’s snapped out of his memories. Wally glances up at the sheepish expression on Talonflame’s face, and a gentle laugh bursts out of his teeth. He rubs the underside of his Pokemon’s neck. “I’m guessing you’re hungry now, eh? Are you starving, too, Roserade?” 

His grass Pokemon gives him a shy nod. 

“Then, let’s go get something to eat.” 

But before Wally can get up, a Pokemon approaches him, offering a box. Wally smells something sweet oozing from the edges. He opens his mouth to speak, but the Pokemon - Lucario, it seems - sends him a telepathic message. At first, Wally is taken back, his heart nearly jumping out from his ribs. But the Pokemon is giving him a reassuring grin. 

“P-Poffins?” Wally doesn’t believe he’s tried those before. From the looks of it, Roserade and Talonflame haven’t eaten that kind of treat, either. “A-Are you sure i-it’s okay? I’d l-love to try them o-out!” 

     ♔ - } When he heard what he was hoping to hear as a response, the Lucario’s ears perked forward and his smile widened more. Excitement flashed in his eyes as he happily opened the lid of the poffin case, revealing just a few treats inside, ready to be taken and eaten. He took a quick glance over to the Talonflame and Roserade, recognizing only one of the species, but he wasn’t here to learn about other species of Pokemon. < “Of course! Go ahead and take one for yourself and for your Pokemon! I assure you that you will all enjoy it. Besides, my trainer plans on making more. Help yourself!” >      The trainer, meanwhile, shook her head with a hand to her face, feeling just a bit embarrassed by her Pokemon’s actions. Of course, she knew that the Lucario didn’t mean for his actions to embarrass her. He was only sharing something he enjoyed and something she enjoyed making with others. After a moment, she peeked through between her fingers to see the other trainer thinking about taking a poffin. She decided to take this as her cue to walk over and join them.

     “I’m so sorry. I hope Duke isn’t bothering you.” Platinum spoke when she arrived, now standing next to her Pokemon. “If you do take one, that I wouldn’t worry about it affecting your Pokemon or even yourself. At least not in a negative way.” She paused on purpose before continuing on, “These poffins are made with the freshest ingredients. Healthy, too, for both Pokemon and trainers alike.” There was a proud look on her face, matching her body’s posture with her hands on her hips.      The Lucario nodded at her words before urging the trainer again to take a poffin, lowering it slightly when Platinum nudged him in the side, giving him a look that was telling him not to be rude.      “I don’t know if you have ever had one of these before, but if you have had Pokeblocks that seem to be more common here in Hoenn, it’s almost like that, but --- in my opinion --- tastes better and trainers are able to have these freely as a treat, too. I like to make mine for specific Pokemon and for certain situations, like contests for example.” She paused, realizing she may have been talking a bit too much. Was she excited, too, about sharing her homemade poffins? Duke wasn’t going to let this down so easily now.

Carnival Time || Platinum & Touko

     ♔ - } “I can’t believe we’re here! We’re actually here and we might see the gorgeous Elesa herself!” Platinum giggled while she skipped along the walkway, just finally coming from Castelia City for a small trip to see one of Elesa’s fashion shows. She has always dreamed of arriving in the city, hoping to get some tips of fashion to perhaps help her with her future shows at contests.      Behind her was both her Lucario and Luxray. The Lucario just shook his head as he watched his trainer get excited; meanwhile the Luxray looked bored out of its mind, not showing any care of its surroundings.      < “Platinum, we’re wondering where we are headed. I thought you said that the fashion show doesn’t start till tomorrow?” > Lucario asked within Platinum’s head, using telepathy. Once asking this, the Luxray glanced over to his trainer, finally looking interested in something.      The raven haired trainer paused in her tracks before turning around on her heels to face her two companions with a wide smile plastered onto her face. “It’s a surprise~ I’m sure you’ll both enjoy it.” With that, she turned right back around and continued on her way, now humming a tune she just made up. This answer caused both Pokemon to glance at one another, confusion written all over their faces before Lucario finally spoke up once more.      < “Then perhaps a hint? What else is here that could get you excited and make you think that we might enjoy it as well?” >      Platinum just tsked in response to the question. “If you insist on knowing, then fine.” She laughed. “I just thought that everyone on the team has been doing so many things and hardly had any time to just sit back and relax and even had some fun. Well, before I go to the fashion show tomorrow (and maybe meet Elesa herself!), I remembered that this city was also known for something fun for everyone.” There was a paused, purposefully placed to hear her Pokemon’s reaction.      < “...And?” >      The trainer shook her head again as she stopped in her tracks once more, placing her hands on her hips proudly. She stared ahead, as if she had just reclaimed territory of some sort. “This. This is what I wanted to surprise you guys with.”      Both the Lucario and the Luxray stopped beside her, looked in the direction she was facing and stared in silence and in awe. Before them was a sea of rides and games one would see at a carnival. What really shocked them the most (how did they miss it?) was the large ferris wheel, spinning slowly and yet gracefully in a circle.       “Now, I’ll let you two decide what you would like to do first---”      < “Ferris wheel!” > The Pokemon screamed in her head, obviously excited like a little Riolu. The Luxray didn’t seem to like the idea of getting up high, but he will stay near his trainer through anything. Platinum chuckled at the quick response before nodding. “Very well, then lets get in line and get some tickets so we can get on as soon as possible.” Her eyes scanned the area of busy people, hoping to catch sight of a sign or any indicator that there was a ticket seller nearby, if any. Perhaps she should have gotten a map when they first arrived the city. Grunting in disbelief, she headed over to a random person/trainer, hoping to get an answer she is hoping for.

     “Excuse me, but do you happen to know where I could get some tickets for the ferris wheel?” Her tone was calm, yet perhaps a bit too hurried.

Taste Testing || Platinum & Wally

     ♔ - } The grand city of Lilycove. Home of the Spectacular Contest Hall, Department Store, museum, and a beautiful beach. The Wingulls were flying high and you could spot the Wailmer and Wailord in the distance, spouting water and creating a sea of fountains. 

     “Ah! Nothing like smelling the salty air that’s popular here.” The trainer spoke, Lucario at her side as they stood at the edge of the short cliff, the beach below them spanning out till it blended into the water. Platinum stretched her arms up above her head, feeling the breeze of salty air flow past and around her, a large smile spread across her face. She was enjoying the different atmosphere that was different than the atmosphere back in Sinnoh. It wasn’t her first trip here, since many contests were held here and she was often asked to participate. Lucario, while his trainer enjoyed the air, was currently crouched down, looking at the seashells that have somehow landed on the cliff’s edge, fascinated by the different patterns and its overall shape it held.       A moment passed before there was a soft growl, causing the Pokemon to bring his paws up to his stomach, ears folding back in embarrassment. Platinum couldn’t help but to laugh at this before bringing her hands to her hips, glancing downward with a grin at her companion.

     “It is about time we had some lunch,” she stated, watching the Lucario nod its head slowly in agreement. “Lets head back to the Pokemon Center then and eat there. Hopefully I still have some poffins for a treat afterward.” That last part seem to have excited the Pokemon for he jumped up, giving an approval grunt. Now that food was now on his mind, he decided to get a head start yet making sure to stay close for safety precautions. “Not so fast!” She laughed, trying her best to keep up with the Pokemon. “You won’t get the food faster if you beat me.”           - - -      ♔ - } At the Pokemon Center, Lucario sat, anxiously waiting for the food to appear before him, as if Platinum would perform a magic trick. The trainer came out from the kitchen (which she had asked ahead of time to borrow), placing a plate of freshly cooked meat in front of her companion and another plate of salad on the other side of the table for herself.      “Sadly, I didn’t have anymore poffins, so as soon as we’re done eating, we can bake some more. It will be perfect for the upcoming contest, too.” The trainer sat down, placing a napkin on her lap before eating her food, slowly and in moderate amounts. Lucario followed suit with his steak. 

     < “Perhaps other trainers will smell the delicious poffins and would want some for themselves or even for their own Pokemon.” > The Lucario spoke into her head using telepathy. The trainer just smiled at his words, nodding lightly.

     “I can only hope so, but you know that I will be sure that you and the rest of the team will have plenty till I make more next time. Besides, if I started handing out these treats without a profit, then I’m sure I would have a large line and that will lead to no time with anything else.” This caused the Pokemon to grow quiet, only to receive a nod as a response. “I know, I know. You want to share the goodness of my poffins to the rest of the world.” Platinum chuckled. “And anyways, it’s late in the day and finding potential trainers to have a taste of these poffins will be slim to none right now.       Lucario now pouted at his trainer’s words and decided to give the rest of the Pokemon Center a good look around. He could only see a few other trainers within the building, most of them too busy dealing with their own and their Pokemon needs. It was then he spotted a single trainer, deciding to take a chance randomly with them. On a mission now, he leaned over to Platinum’s bag, took out the poffin case and stood up to head on over to where the trainer was.

     ”Duke? Duke!” Platinum called out before sighing and watching the sight before her till she had to get up to deal with her Pokemon’s random behavior.

     < “Hello!” > He started, speaking in their minds just as he did with Platinum’s. There was a friendly smile on his face, his head tilted slightly to the side. < “Pardon me if I am intruding on anything, but I was wondering if you would like to try some of my trainer’s homemade poffins. We were discussing if other trainers and their Pokemon would enjoy a sample as this one, especially around the time when there is a contest. I assure you that they are great and I enjoy them myself, but I want to assure my dear trainer that there would be others that will enjoy them, too.” >

½ - How the character feels about people taller or shorter than them

She’s indifferent about it. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t like being called ‘short’ by people who are taller than her, nor being called a ‘giant’ by those who are shorter than her. She finds those nicknames rude and will not insult anyone’s height (unless she really does not like you). She won’t be comfortable with hugging a either side (because placement of body parts), but that’s about all.
