ninth fortune ☆ the star

[future_sight]

[ACTION ; around Union]

[Nozomi made sure that the errand she sent Eri on would keep her busy for the entire day. After all, she would need all the time that she could get to gather up everything and decorate properly for the holiday. She usually didn't make the effort, as the holiday was usually a bit of a bittersweet time for her--the Fey family was warm and welcoming, but this time of year really made her nostalgic and wistful.

Throughout the day, she can be found flitting around the business district, Mithra, Coeus, Saturahiko, Helen and Ishtar following behind. She needed anyone and everyone who could carry things to assist her, after all.

Those that know Nozomi might also notice something... different. There is a powerful aura about her--not menacing or imposing by any means, but certainly something that commands respect. Her hair, which was only waist-length before, dangles close to her knees, and is more violet than black. Her eyes have a bit of a glow as well, although subtle, and she looks much paler even in the light of late autumn.]

There we go~

[That was the last of it. Hair tied to the side and out of her way, Nozomi wiped her forehead as she looked over her handiwork. It was all done. There was something delicious baking in the oven, and tea ready to be served whenever a certain someone got home. A small undecorated tree--she left it that way for a reason--sat in the corner, with a few wrapped boxes underneath, and garland and other things decorated their home.

She was actually starting to get into the Salvation Day spirit. Maybe she would have Maya and Jinxie over later, too. Or some other people. That could be fun.

Now all she had to do was wait.]

[Did someone order a pack mule? Because that is basically one of Eiji's best jobs. He's got a good collection of things in his hands, trailing beside Nozomi's pokemon.]

[He certainly noticed the change in her today. He didn't ask, but he had a feeling he knew what was up. Seemed like a lot of people were evolving here lately.]

Where to next, Nozomi?

Locked

[erichika]

[When Eri walks in, she stops, looking a bit stunned. She definitely doesn't know what to make of all of this]

[unbalancedlove]

[This is a busy time for a certain birdy girl too: the moment she learned of this holiday she made a mental list of all the people she knows to prepare sweets and gifts too. The costumes for their performance could count as gifts but that would be an easy way out, wouldn't it? she'd rather give them another gift for this special occasion, even if it's just a snack.

In any case, it's by sheer coincidence that they meet on the brunette girl's way back from shopping.]

Eh?...

[Is that Nozomi? she looks like her, moves like her, speaks like her but there is something different that she can't exactly pinpoint which makes her hesitate in calling the other girl out. She is Nozomi, right?]

[celebrity_commentator]

[Another young lady out doing some Salvation shopping notices something unusual - even if she's only met Nozomi in passing, there's a definite twinge in her Psychic senses as the other girl passes. The Gardevoir critiquing clothes with her also turns and notices. Himiko hasn't felt anything quite like this from an Enlightened before.]

[The parade of Pokémon following her is a secondary curiosity.]

[In the interest of not just staring, Rise calls out.]

Hey there! Nozomi Toujou, right?
