[ACTION]

[Cordelia can be found in various places in the city. Recently evolved, she looks sleeker, and her movements are much more graceful than before. She seems to be in a rather cheerful mood, a spring to her step. She had a very clear mission today, to find as many Salvation day gifts as possible, but she kept stopping in front of bridal shops.

At the Rangers HQ, she seems a lot more laid back than before, and is actually smiling and laughing much easier than she had been for a long time. Something definitely had changed, and the more astute observer might notice that she has acquired a new piece of jewelry.]

[Cordelia has also been more present at the Fabre estate since Luke and Asch's return, insisting that she take care of their training personally. She has yet to break the news with her extended family (and somehow her mother has managed to keep it quiet, which is something of a miracle) and their friends. While around the mansion, she will wear gloves, trying to pick the proper time to tell anyone about the news.]

[VOICE]

I have heard that the tree in Citadel is still blooming. I am planning to make a trip out there to investigate this myself, for my own reasons. The flowers might be a wonderful addition to any Salvation day decorations. Would anyone like to accompany me?

[This is a very unhappy Guy on the network today. Anyone who knows him or the fon Fabre boys will know that he's been gone since their disappearance, trying to find them. They're his best friends (yes Asch even you). He can't just leave them out there. He's back in Union for now, needing to get more supplies.

There is a Lillipup barking somewhere off-screen.]

Still haven't found Asch or Luke. I checked the entire forest, or as deep into it as we could get right now, and I didn't see any sign of them. I'm really starting to get worried.

[Guy sighs]

Has anyone else heard anything from them?

Who: Luke, Asch (

albertstyle), and you!
What: After almost 2 months, the twins return from the wastes.
Where: Just inside Union's gates.
When: 09/12, around 9AM

[He was tired, hungry, and still kind of scared when they finally saw the city on the horizon. It felt like a mirage, but it was all he could do to hope that they had finally made it home. Once they'd become lost, Luke and Asch had been forced to survive with only the help of their Pokemon and their Shifter forms. For two spoiled, pampered young men it had been more than difficult. At least, in their Pokemon bodies, they had a bit of instinct and were able to survive. This had also forced them to evolve. Once Fennekin, when the two twins finally arrived at Union they were bigger, taller... Two identical Braixen with curiously green eyes entered the city, looking skinny and beaten up, their fur scruffy and unwashed. Unhostile, the Guard let them pass through and they wandered inside, Luke feeling almost apprehensive.]

{We're actually home... can you believe it?}

[The twins had never quite gotten the hang of changing back and forth from their Shifted forms, so they've been stuck like this for quite a while. It would be simpler to change back and make a beeline for the Fabre estate, but while they were still unsure of how to change back it was difficult. At least, this time, they could climb steps. Luke looked at his twin, almost unsure... Over the course of the months he'd gotten quieter, listened more. He had relied on Asch to get them out of the trouble he'd put them into. His loud mouth had been quieted, at least for the time being. They were home, and that was what mattered. Hopefully, they would run into someone they knew on their way back to the mansion to help explain what was going on. The last time they had returned as Pokemon hadn't been very pleasant.]

{ooc: Asch and Luke are back! They've evolved into two scruffy Braixen and are back home after 2 months spent surviving outside of Union. Asch and Luke will both be replying as we go, so have fun!}

[ The feed comes up with Asch and two little baby dragon types with in arms. ]

Alright, listen.... why does this one [ lifting the newly bonded deino ] keep trying to bite this one [ lowering the deino and lifting the axew. ]

--because I'm not putting up with anymore biting.

[ The smaller dragon coos, Axew whining as the other Pokemon nips in his direction. ]

Anybody know? [ Asch, the man of few words... he doesn't like asking for help but for the sake of these two Pokemon he can't seem to let his stubbornness affect someone's life-- that life being the tiny little Axew. ]

[There's some fussing with the camera when the feed first starts up, but soon enough it settles in one spot. Natalia, with her Dratini draped across her shoulders, leans back now that she's satisfied with the warp band's placement.]

Say, I have a question for any Engineers out there. Would any of you happen to have experience in making arrows? While I don't think I'll need any right away, there's a possibility I will in the future and it never hurts to ask ahead of time, right?

[She reaches up and strokes her Dratini's head, offering a smile.] That's all I wanted to know, thank you for your time.

[Squid Girl is sitting on top of something big and flat as the video feed flicks on, the open ocean clearly visible behind her as the Pathfinder and the dock located just outside Union disappear into the distance. Wherever she is and whatever she's sitting on, it's moving.]

Y'know... every time we have to bail out some suckers from a new city, there's always somefin they have in common.

[You know. In the two times that's happened so far.]

Caldera is in a desert. Citadel is up in a big tree in the middle of nowhere.

[She folds her arms, shaking her head and shrugging.]

You guys know what I'm talking about, right?

[And if not, she moves her wrist to show a view of the ocean waves beside her before bringing it back around to her face.]

The ocean! Both of them built their stupid cities as far away from it as they could! Of course Caldera was thirsty and stuff when Gigas surrounded them - there's no water anywhere in a desert! And Citadel is even stupider! They get attacked by a big monster made of fire, right? You know what would really kelp? A big source of water! But where do you find somefin like that...?

[She moves the camera back to the waves for a moment before swinging it back around.]

Oh yeah, I know! The ocean! But instead of just building a city that was gilly far away from the ocean on land, they went up into the sky, too! What's wrong with these people? If everybody just lived near the ocean, I jet no one would have these kinds of problems.

[ Video ]

[ The video feed turns on to show a close-up of an Eevee's face. It seems to be peering curiously, and there's a flash of what might be a familiar black and purple cloak just visible behind her.

The voice that shoos away the Pokémon is obviously female, though. ] Umbra, you're going to have to move. I can't even tell if this is working with you there!

[ The Eevee moves to show a girl with shockingly white hair and odd cloak - isn't it too hot for that sort of clothing? She seems pleased, though. ] Ha! It is working! I knew I could figure it out!

[ Her grin fades for a moment. ] ....Right, that doesn't sound weird at all.... [ Let's try this again- ]

Hello, Union. My name's Robin! I'm new to the city, and I was hoping I could get a push in the right direction for... well, several things, really.

I'm looking for a place to live, for one. I don't have much, just a few books and changes of clothing, so I don't take up much space. As comfortable as the benches in your city may be, I'd like something a little more substantial. I don't have much money now, but I hope I can find work quickly enough, and I can always work doing chores until then.

...And secondly, a job. I can translate from several dead languages, I can fight fairly well, and can work well with Pokémon. Anywhere I can put any of those skills to use would be welcome.

And... ah, it's a pleasure to meet you?

[ Action ]

[ After trying her hand at asking for information over this new-fangled network, Robin can be found wandering around the city. She's easy to spot, what with her strange black cloak with purple eyes on the sleeves and Eevee running around her legs or riding on her shoulder.

Mostly, she's either looking at apartments or asking for work in shops, both of which she's having a spectacularly hard time having any luck with. Feel free to help her out, ask what she's doing, or tell her that her Eevee is annoying. ]

[ACTION; CLOSED TO FON FABRES, ROBIN AND HANS]

[The last time she had been to the estate was for her aunt's birthday, and, quite frankly, it hadn't been long enough. This time, she made quite clear to her parents--particularly her mother, multiple times--was purely for business; there has been word of some goings on that needed the rangers' attention, and, as an adviser to their mission, she, along with her assigned analyst, needed to meet with her father.

So, of course, when the two of them arrived, there was a large welcoming party of servants and family.

This was going to be a long day...]

***

[After finally going through the grueling process of "negotiating", and the long line of questions from her mother, Cordelia managed to get away, retreating to her old room. Everything was as it had been, which was a blessing in disguise.

After a few moments, music began cascading down the hall from the open door. A full-sized harp, resting close to her bed, rested against her shoulder. It had been too long since she was able to play.]

[ACTION; LATER THAT NIGHT]

[Later in the evening, Cordelia can be found ~~hiding out~~ at a table in Teeters, a stein of some kind of alcohol sitting next to her. Her head is down, hair haphazardly thrown over her face, and she is otherwise draped over the tabletop. The poor thing looks positively miserable and could use a hug.

Or another drink.

Or heckling.

Really, she probably could do without any of those things, but she wasn't going to get out of it, was she?]

video; | late evening

[The video message currently being broadcasted might be the most uninformative recording yet. Two little fox-like Pokémon yipping over the call, both seem frantic.. –connection is soon lost. The mountain top’s blizzard is raging too harshly.]

action; | morning of the 17th, Union.

[Whether you saw the video or not both little Fennekins have made their way back to Union somehow. Wandering around but not mindlessly or seemingly lost. No, quite the opposite, they both seem to know where they are going.

A little odd for Pokemon not native to Union.] Fenn!! Fen..!

[The struggle is almost adorable, like one of those cute Pokemon warp-band videos where Puruglys attempt swimming or baby Lillipups tumble over each other. The one little Fennekin can’t make his way up the steps to the upper-class district… try as he might those steps are built larger then all others in Union. Aww—the poor thing's starting to whimper (against his will…)

While the one Fennekin hopped the other ventures, sniffing out the nearest food vendor... the poor things is starving. Big, round, green eyes glare up at the fruit stand… waiting to make his move. Suddenly—SNATCH! The owner is wailing over this small little fox who has stolen his product. (Without paying!! How rude?)

Why a Fennekin would steal an apple in the first place… The little thing just runs away with the apple in his mouth, going off to hide somewhere...]

( ooc: you may reply to either Asch or Luke. Put the Fennekin you're replying to's name in the subject line. The video post can't be replied to. )

A Video;

[It's been a while since Luke has made a post, kind of odd when he'd made them so frequently before. Most of it had to do with him not being able to shift back from his recently Enlightened Fennekin form, and dealing with all the drama that came with that. He and Asch had gotten back from he mountain in their shifted forms and only their family had known about it for a while. It had been a struggle, and all the while Luke had been away from his Pokemon but now... he remembered what he'd wanted to ask the network!]

[So he comes on the screen looking a little frazzled. His hair looks a little poofier than normal but that isn't what he's upset about. He lifts an egg up on screen and pouts.]

Hey! I got this thing from the --[He tries not to smirk, mature that he is,] Breeding Center, but it's really starting to shake and move and stuff! That means it's hatching, right? What do I--!

[The egg leaps in his hands and starts to glow.]

Guys! GUYS! What do I do?!

B Action;

[Much later, Luke's Flareon Mieu can be seen running around with a Fennekin in the park, every so often going to check on the little Bulbasaur sleeping in the grass nearby. The Fennekin has green eyes, but otherwise he seems totally normal, even if a Fennekin is quite rare in these parts. Finally they calm down from their racing, and Mieu returns to check on Bulbasaur while the Fennekin hops up on a table to observe the area, ears tipped back.]

Log Deputy: nor PM, church PM
Log Deputy Schedule: We're both on around 9PM-9AM EST usually if you need us right away.
Participating Characters: Anyone who wants to join!

Plot Description: Spring Gala at the Fabre's!

Every year, Judge Fabre throws a birthday party for Asch and Luke's mother Suzanne. Because she's a bit sickly, the party is thrown outside when the air is the freshest in the spring. Any and all nobles and those of high standing in the community are invited, but there are... ways for the common rabble to get in and have a good time as well. Namely, the part of the manor ground's fencing that was torn down during the earthquakes. That, or maybe the guards are having a good time too and wandered away for some ...action. Either way, everyone's eligible! There will be food and drinks (children, mind the wine,) cake, dancing and more! Don't forget the fireworks at midnight, it might be something romantic for you and your sweetie. Wear something nice and mingle!

Warnings/Notes: Nothing but fancy outfits and maybe a little alcohol around here.

Welcome to the Fabre's, please enjoy your stay.

[Audio-Unlisted Warp Band]

[Okay. Normally Sync doesn't hold grudges--the guy didn't even offend him personally, yet. However, he knows the guy's brother, and watching his behavior on the network has been just. Grating, to put it mildly. Plus this is the perfect excuse to see how nicely his mimic skills have developed over the past few weeks. Analysts take note, this can be picked up by them as fake, but unnaturally good, as it will likely fool a great many since Luke fon Fabre hasn't been doing well with the 'common folk'.]

Tch. Listen, and don't go pestering me about it, but I--I needed to get something off my chest. It's been bugging me since I said it. More annoying ... [a beat]

Alright damn it! I was jealous, okay?! I ... I can't wear the mullet like Asch and I wish I looked that cool with it.

((OOC: Sync won't be replying, but feel free to threadjack and such~ Also, Nor has given a blessing to make this post!))

[Action]

[A few hours after his small prank, Sync is still snickering about it occasionally, but now he needs a job. He took a break from helping Banzu, but he'll either need to get back to it(which he will eventually because he still owes Banzu), or maybe go on an expedition to the Old City and dig for things to find. A perfect place to contemplate destiny is thankfully one of the many benches lining Union while he stares up into the sky aimlessly.]

All right, you guys listening?

[Luke is holding the Warp Band up above his head while he lays down. His hair is all messy and sprawled out behind him and Mieu, Luke's Eevee, is kneading around in it trying to find a good spot to lay. For once, Luke isn't being mean to him.]

Some of you may have noticed already, but I have a twin. So I don't want anyone confusing him for me, got it? That's the worst thing imaginable.

We're identical, so the only way to tell us apart is how we wear our hair. I have my bangs brushed forward because I'm not lame and it looks way cooler. Asch has this dumb mullet cause he pushes his fringe back and it looks so stupid. His forehead is a little higher than mine too, cause I think he's gonna go bald like dad soon. He's always frowning and being a huge baby about everything.

What I'm saying is, he's actually a lot uglier than me. So make sure you don't think he's me.

[He grins up at the camera before accidentally dropping his Warp Band on his face. He swears and the camera shakes around while he picks it back up. Mieu gives a little veee and finally settles.]

He's kind of sensitive though. Like, the guy keeps a daily diary, that sensitive. So don't tell him you know he's uglier, he'll throw a fit.

hawkethat

[Behold the exhausted but freshly-scrubbed face of one Garrett Hawke, come to introduce himself to the network with a very important question (to him).]

Has anyone heard of a village named Rhododendron? No one at the Medical Center has heard of it, but they suggested I try asking on the network.

It's where I'm from, and I'd like to go back, but I'm not sure where it is from here. So any information at all would be great.

[He hesitates very briefly, then flashes a charming smile.]

Thanks.

[OOC: This guy's hometown is so far off the map no one will have heard of it, and it's also been completely destroyed, but he doesn't know that yet so he's still asking around. Feel free to yank his chain or crush his dreams or just be brutally honest, it's all good! o/]

Ugh, this sucks. Why do I have to patrol? It's so early...

[About 11AM, there's a long haired boy in a Swords of the Savior uniform walking around one of the more populated parks. There's really no telling why they've let him wear his hair down, all that red flying everywhere. At least the flower petals and stuff have gone, that was annoying. He kicks a nearby rock in irritation before flopping down on a bench, not noticing the lady nearby who'd been walking towards it to sit with her baby... He doesn't even notice her huff and walk off. There's an Eevee in a cute sweater that's been trying to keep up with the seventeen year old, who finally jumps up onto the remaining space next to Luke and chimes in with a squeaky little 'Vee!' Luke groans.]

Don't add to it, Thing. You're so annoying!

[He tries to shove Mieu off the bench, but he just curls up under Luke's arm instead and he gives a dramatic sigh. His life is horrible.]

I should just go home already. Dad's probably at work, I could get away with it...
