Walks up to him and gives him a box of chocolates “hopefully you’d like an unopened snack this time” she offers him a genuine gentle smile before tucking her hands behind her back “— don’t get any ideas though.. Happy Valentine’s Day Drayton” // Lacey obvs. Sorry I’m late

There were two people he never expected to get anything from on this holiday. Lacey was one of them! But of course, her offering of chocolate came with a caveat. Don't get any ideas, huh?

What a shame.

"Aw Lace, you can't get a guy's hopes up like that just to dash them as quick." He teased. How serious was he? No way to tell from the expression on his face, or the tone he used. Schrodinger's disappointment. You'll never know if he was or wasn't until the metaphorical box has been opened. And the box in question was under tight lock and key.

"Thanks though, I'll be snacking on these later!"

⭐️ - for my muse to stargaze with yours . // from Nat possibly?

There was always something about being up on Spikemuth's roof in the late hours of the night, the post-concert adrenaline only beginning to fade. The colder breeze coming in from Circhester Bay, the faint glow of neon lights barely visible from above. As well as a perfect view of the night sky, honestly a bonus in Piers' eyes. No wonder he tended to come up here whenever he had the chance. An overall great place to unwind and get some inspiration.

However, tonight had the added bonus of having Nat with him, and that easily overshadowed the beauty of the starry sky, his gaze more often flicking to her instead of the sight above them. It was this... he wouldn't call it "shy", no... More like "giddiness of a man in love" feeling. A warm, soft, and all-consuming sensation. One like he'd never known or had the chance to ever experience until her, in all honesty. What with him growing up around making Spikemuth the town it was today. But one he adored, all the same.

Acoustic guitar in hand, he idly strummed, gaze managing to pull away from her and focus on the sky. "We can stay out here all night if y'wanna, love. Not like I have a lousy curfew or anythin'," he said with a small laugh.

I’d love for ree to do a real gym badge run, someday in the future. I want them to go to new places and tear through their leagues, proving themself as a trainer. I’d love to see them do a gym run through Kanto or Johto… or even Kalos…

"All of the candy is probably on sale right now. Wanna go take a look?" // Juliana to Kotone perhaps?

"Oh you're right!!! Let's go!" Kotone was buzzing a bit at the recommendation, already starting to make her way over to the nearest store. "I'm going to buy the biggest bag of kit-kats!! What are you going to get?"

"I've kind of always wanted one of those cheesy giant stuffed animals..." // Lacey to Drayton

"Yeah?" Drayton took a moment to actually lift his head up from where he was resting on the table. He can't say he's surprised by her admission at all. After all, Lacey loved anything that was cute. She probably had stuffed animals all throughout her dorm, if he were to hazard a guess.

Though now that she'd said it out loud, Drayton was going to file that thought away for later. Not that she needed to know that.

"Any thought to which one you'd get?" Now he's just probing for more information. "Cause I mean... how big do they even make them? Can you imagine a Wailord stuffed animal? It'd probably take up an entire room, y'know?"

😴 - to fall asleep on your muse . // Lacey > Drayton

Oh...

Wait hold on!

This visual felt off. Not in a bad way but... Lacey falling asleep on him? What kind of alternate timeline had he stumbled into? Felt like she always had her guard up around him. She didn't really take breaks either. Or if she did, he wasn't around to see them.

He had no reason to complain either because he was always telling her that she needed to relax. Take a load off. Have a nap. And now here they were. Sitting on the couch in the League Club, just the two of them, with her head resting on his shoulder.

He wasn't entirely sure what to do with himself. Moving would be akin to disturbing a litten napping on your lap. Rude at best. Downright illegal if you ask some.

It didn't take much deliberation however.

"Well... If you can't beat 'em..." His voice was softer than usual, not trying to wake her up. And he settled back against the couch, crossing his arms and tucking his head down.

"Sleep tight, Lace." He muttered, before long he dozed off himself.

"How many cards did you get this year?" // lacey cause she's just curious

Valentine's Day Starters [ accepting ]

"A few..." He hummed casually as he looked up from one of the cards he was reading over. It was a pretty generic card. Drayton has never been the type to get fussed about Valentine's cards. The candy was a nice plus when it was included. But it was rare that he got anything serious from the other students. Not that he minded. After all, that was the energy he invited in his day to day.

Nothing too serious.

He wasn't good with handling real confessions. Turning people down was awkward and mentally taxing.

"Wasn't really counting. Why? Should I be keeping an eye out for someone in particular?" It's an easy jab he can make, knowing it'll get a reaction from her. She'll probably throw up her arms in an "X" and tell him he's being ridiculous. If he managed that much he'll be satisfied.
