Eternity

     While Serena will refrain from making any solid plans for her life once she hits her first century, for the rest of eternity, one thing is set in stone. She is an Étoile for the Lumiose Opera Ballet-- a title that a dancer keeps for life, even after retirement. And so, she is forever bound to the artform, in a sense. Long after her deeds for Kalos are forgotten, or confined to the history books, Serena will still be known in the ballet community. Her portrait still hangs on the grand staircase in the entrance of her old academy in Sinnoh. Another sits in the halls of the Palais in Lumiose City. Her immortality is something that inevitably comes to light, thanks to being a public figure and a lack of aging-- at some point, to regain a shred of control over her situation, Serena will admit what happened on that fateful day. 

     And, unfortunately for her, this also comes with one major downside-- a constant fight between the company associated with the academy she attended in Sinnoh, and the Lumiose Opera Ballet, whom she had her debut performance with.

     Both would want to be able to claim that they made the the dancer that Serena is, and that she is their ballerina-- a product of theirs. More than likely, it would escalate to a point where the heroine finds herself bound in contracts between the two of them, unable to turn her back on one. Contracts that, while still giving Serena the freedom to live her life the way she sees fit, makes her obligated to perform for them. To be able to use her and her immortal status as a piece of marketing, almost. To come see the Étoile who has danced for a hundred or a thousand years. To come be taught in a class by a ballerina who has learnt so many different interpretations of key roles.

     The only reason Serena would ever stay content with this outcome is simply because she loves ballet, and loves being able to tell stories hundreds, if not thousands, of years old. No matter how her contracts change, or how her situation is used to the advantage of companies, she never loses sight of why she started dancing in the first place.

     Even as she shifts from being ‘Serena, the hero of Kalos’, to ‘Serena, the eternal Étoile’.

@gamblewave​ has arrived.

It wasn’t everyday when they outsourced their test subjects. Truly dirty dealings that Kirin was never really happy to do, but what can one do with the shortcomings besides biting the bullet and accepting the cost? The cost being a human being, but she never thought very highly of them.

Expendable. Malleable. Plentiful.

Yes, this was a gift- an esteemed opportunity.

She turned then, looking over the prone body strapped to the cool metal slab. The straps were made from a thick metal chain like band, the more you pulled, the tighter they became. The slab itself was made out of the same density as a Steelix body.

There was no telling just how strong one would become when undergoing the perfection process.

Well, that’s enough justification.

The researcher reached for a needle, flicked the tip before sticking it carefully into the arm of the soon to be awaken subject. The entire syringe was emptied and then removed to sit on the metal tray.

“Grimsley. Your appointment is about to be underway. You couldn’t be in better hands.”

“Grimsley’s liepards might be a problem.”

The poor natu.

Serena I'm-

          “Yes...? Is something wrong?”

Grimsley ( Will / Karen )

send a name for my muse to honestly admit if they like them or not from 0 to 10!

0 means they’re practically strangers, 10 means they fully trust them.

"Meeting him back in Pasio was a fun experiance, not to mention battling along side him with Karen too those lead to some great wins and some that really shocked those watching, his battle techniques are something else too. Trusting him on a scale of 10 I think my trust around him would be a 8.5 - 9 / 10."

"My thoughts and how much I trust Grimsley well where do I start? First of all his battle styles are more unusual and cool than anything else I will admit that, after all how many people do you know would battle in such a risky way and be able to pull it off? Trust for him is really a 8.5 / 10."

“Well don’t say I didn’t warn you though.”

“She should be around here.”

Closed starter for Gamblewave

The daylight had faded and the nightfall had taken over however Will couldn’t help but pace back and forth at the thought of where one of his team members / friends were. 

There had been no sign of him all day and Grimsley hadn’t been at his usual spot near the café or ocean either, this had sprung into his whole system making him feel nauseous with worry.

“Just where, where are you hiding today Grimsley this isn’t like you... Please be safe where ever you are.”
