Who: Everyone!
Where: The newly discovered island
What: After recent events, the people of Union could use a bit of R&R. What better place than a tropical island?
Warnings: Drinks with little umbrellas in them, swimsuits, idek



An island paradise, discovered just off the southern coast, less than a day's travel from the city. A strong enough Pokemon could easily carry their partner and others out there. It was hard to say just who sent the original message, but pictures surfaced, with the tagline "Don't you wish you were here," came over the warp bands' feeds, and, like Venomoths to the flame, people began clamoring toward this new found tropical get-away. Those who wanted to go would find it easy enough--with so many people making their way to investigate, for whatever reason they claimed (but let's be honest, it was probably the beach), one could just hitch a ride.

The island itself appeared untouched by human contact. The Pokemon were strange and different compared to the fare immediately around Union. A warm breeze blew through palm trees, carrying the scent of hibiscus flowers. The water, blue as the summer sky, was warm and inviting.

This truly was a paradise.

Bless his tiny heart, Armin is absolutely the last person to ever judge -- plus he's particularly fond of Fai's unique brand of style -- so his expression is nothing but curiously admiring when he speaks.

"Is it comfortable?
niepokonany: (Tiny miniskirts!)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-03-05 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, good. Feliks revels in the admiration, flopping down on his backside in the sand and getting nice and comfy.

"Totally! It's like, way stretchy, it doesn't feel tight at all."
tinytactician: ([a] think positive!)

[personal profile] tinytactician 2014-03-05 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
"It's a nice color." Armin plunks down next to him, cradling his teeny-weeny baby Mareep in both arms to keep sand from getting in her wool. "Did you make it yourself?"
niepokonany: (Only because I was eavesdropping!)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-03-06 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, I was gonna make one? But then I was out shopping and I saw this one, and I was like, 'gods, I have to have it!'"

He smiles, draping his baby Dratini's long, thin body over his legs so she can nap there without getting all sandy. "Thanks for the advice about food and junk, by the way."
tinytactician: ([a] :DDDDDD)

"Oh, I see. I've never seen one quite like it." Not that Armin's really the height of fashion -- he's wearing cut-offs and a vaguely sailor-esque top, like the sad mismatched child he is. But the baby Dratini gets a delighted smile, and a reverently whispered, "You're welcome. Have you named her?"
niepokonany: (Is ever gonna bring me down)

If possible, Feliks seems even more pleased--though the attention to his clothes already had him pretty happy. He pets her little ear-fun gently, and she gives Armin a distantly curious, rather sleepy look, her tail curling around Feliks's leg a little.

"Yeah, her name's Huzar. She's way pretty, isn't she?"

Someone spoils the Hell out of his Pokémon, and he's even worse with her than usual.

"She's absolutely gorgeous," Armin coos, emphatically enough that his little Mareep lifts her tiny head, yawning and making a happy baby sound towards Huzar.

"Oh, right, this is Nim. It's short for Cumulonimbus." Armin's naming privileges should be revoked, tbh. "And Famke is around here somewhere...I couldn't leave them behind, you know? I'd worry too much."
niepokonany: (The internet is made of cats)

At least Armin chooses names people can basically pronounce. Feliks has about a 50/50 record with that.

He waves at the little Mareep, just briefly before his own baby gets jealous of his attention and claims his hand for a cuddling-pillow.

"Hey, Nim! And yeah, I totally get it--she flips out if she thinks I'm gonna leave her alone for like 2 minutes. He last time I had to go to the bathroom, she was like, outside the door crying."
tinytactician: ([f] excitedly explaining)

[personal profile] tinytactician 2014-03-07 06:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Armin is absolutely in heaven right now, because talking about babies and cuddling babies and babies. Nim, who's awake now, perks up her teensy head and wiggles off Armin's lap to go investigate the snuggly Dratini.

"Oh no, poor thing. Nim's a bit more independent, usually, but Famke's pretty clingy. She's the other baby, an Espurr." Here he lowers his voice conspiratorially: "I'm a bit worried about her, as she's...oddly colored."
niepokonany: (How did it end up like this?)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-03-07 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Huzar keeps the lower two thirds of her body wound around Feliks's arm for support as she leans her head down to investigate the little Mareep. Is she friendly, she wonders?

Meanwhile, Feliks tilts his head a little. "Oddly like how?"
tinytactician: ([a] vest time)

[personal profile] tinytactician 2014-03-08 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Very friendly! Nim makes a happy peep of greeting, bumping her tiny nose against Huzar's. There might be the slightest bit of transferred static electricity, but not nearly enough to shock.

Armin frowns, very seriously, the picture of a concerned parent. "Well, she's pink. Espurr are usually a more purpley-gray color."
niepokonany: (Not a power in the 'verse)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-03-08 11:59 am (UTC)(link)
Huzar makes a little peeping noise in surprise, then seems to laugh, bumping her head against Nim's again. Feliks, meanwhile, grins, both at the babies getting along and at Armin's words.

"If there's nothing else wrong, what's the big deal? Actually, that sounds way cute!"
tinytactician: ([a] calm the fuq down)

[personal profile] tinytactician 2014-03-08 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Nim is absolutely delighted, climbing boldly onto Feliks's lap so she can cuddle with her brand-new bff. Armin smiles a little, because babies are cuuuuute.

"I suppose you're right. I just tend to worry too much, I guess."
niepokonany: (Get in loser)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-03-08 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
And now there are baby Pokémon cuddling in Feliks's lap, and it is really just too adorable to exist. Smiling contentedly, Feliks runs a hand down Huzar's back.

"I'm not really the worrying type, much."

Like anyone would mistake him for it, after the whole city seeing him fight.

Nim is getting all poofy with happy Mareep static, gumming happily on Huzar's ear fluff. Armin nods, a little struck with hero-worship.

"I noticed! You remain so calm, how do you do it?"
niepokonany: (I think I'm joining the Mathletes)

Sorry for the crazy-late tag ;;;

[personal profile] niepokonany 2014-04-06 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
"You wanna know my secret?"

He shoots a little grin up at Armin, wiggling his toes in the sand.

"I know I mess up a lot, and I know I always get back on my feet. I'm way too fab to let stuff like that bring me down, and I totally know it, so when people try to bring me down, it's like they're trying to tell me water's not wet. Like, ok, you can think that, but you're wrong, so whatever!"
