Not a creature was stirring, not even a Pikachu....

[bravenewmods]

All across Union, its citizens prepared to ring in the Salvation holiday with cheer. Dedicated to their beloved Savior, many of the houses were decorated with garlands, ornaments and other fineries in preparation for this truly special holiday, and while it had been uncharacteristically cold the last few days, not a single flake of snow had fallen. Children eager to start the festivities the following day did their best to stay up in the hopes of possibly catching a glimpse of one of the Delibirds they saw the previous night. However, try as they might, the late night would get the better of them, and soon the city was asleep, nestled warm in their beds, dreaming of parties and presents, candies and cakes.

As they slept, the first snow began to fall, snowflakes silently dancing through the night sky, dusting rooftops and covering sidewalks in pearly white. It would seem that a Salvation miracle was at work in Union that night. The streets were empty, save for a young woman and Pokémon, scarcely visible even in the lamplights. Her steps made no sound, even in the accumulating snow, and she left no footprints, the strange Pokémon by her side taking the time to peer into every window.

Should anyone wake during this peaceful snowfall, they might find the young woman and her companion in their room, transparent as a fog, a placid smile on her face. She did not speak, but simply smiled warmly, almost maternally, before disappearing from view.

When dawn finally broke, the people of Union would find a simple gift within their home, rested alongside a familiar note. The snow from last night coated buildings, streets, and sidewalks, blanketing the city in white and shimmering in the gentle, early morning light.

((OoC: This is a Salvation Mingle Log for all characters. There are decorations and the like in various squares for celebration around Union, so feel free to tag around!))

Re: Video, backdated!

[niepokonany]

S-savior, Waver, are -- are you kidding? It's t-totally hilarious, oh my gods...!

[Yep, sorry, still giggling.]

Video, backdated!

[untalented]

[....he's just going to furrow his brows and glare at you until you shut up, Feliks. His questions were quite valid here.

And he didn't appreciate being teased by a stranger, whether they really were a burglar or a ghost!]

[niepokonany]

S-Stooooooop, how am I supposed to stop laughing when you keep making that face?

[untalented]

It's not even that funny in the first place!

[niepokonany]

Waver. Waver, you like, know I love you, right?

[untalented]

I--

What?

[asdfghjkl

Feliks-- how was he supposed to react to that!]

[niepokonany]

What? Wait--

Like, as a friend, duh! Oh my gods!

[Well, now he's distracted from whatever he was going to follow that up with. Savior.]

[untalented]

Then don't be so confusing about it!!

[There needed to be different words for Friendly Love, Familial Love, and Romantic Love. Waver is so done with this.]

[niepokonany]

I totally wasn't being confusing! Y-You should have known what I meant!

[untalented]

Well, I didn't, okay?

[niepokonany]

Savior, Waver, you can't take everything so seriously all the time!

[untalented]

Then-- how am I supposed to take things?

[Seriously, Feliks. This was like telling you not to sparkle.]

[niepokonany]

I-I don't know! With like, more chill? I just...

[He is going to hide behind his pillow now. Words, words are super hard when he's this embarrassed...]

[untalented]

But how do you do that???

[Clearly, they were at an impasse.]

[niepokonany]

[The sound is rather muffled, as he peeks out just enough for his eyes to be in view of the camera.]

I don't know, you just... don't?

[untalented]

[Waver is just going to groan, shake his head, and bury his face in his hands in a single flurry of motion. Flopping off screen momentarily with a crashing thud, all that can be immediately viewed is...a shoe.

It seems he actually fell over.]

Aaahhh I don't get any of this!!

[niepokonany]

Waver?

[That thud didn't sound great. Feliks peers cautiously up at the computer.]

Um... um. Are you ok?

[untalented]

[Waver popped his head back up just enough to peer at Feliks through the screen.]

I'm gonna make you babysit Orpheus one of these days, at this rate.

[It was petty vengeance. Feliks was so damn confusing!]

[niepokonany]

What, is he that bad? I totally don't get it, but ok...

[untalented]

He's a handfull who's always running off. I think you can keep up with him!


[Conversation: Derailed. But, this gave Waver a chance to hide his burning cheeks for a moment while he calmed down.]

[niepokonany]

Just 'cause I could it's my job?

[He's pouting, but really, this conversation is best derailed anyway.]

[untalented]

It-- it's called a threat for a reason!

[Was he really so small and squishy that he didn't register at all as a threat even when he was trying to make one???]

[niepokonany]

Wait, that was a threat?

[Apparently.]

[untalented]

Yeah. And?

[Oprheus was a tiny bundle of energy; he's long since given up on trying to keep up with the overly extroverted mushroom.]

[niepokonany]

[He sticks out his tongue.]

Way rude, what'd I ever do to you?
