013 ♔ voice /action in IE

[anelegantmyth]

...it seems I'm not in Unova anymore. I should probably try to contact my crew and tell them not to worry about me. But I'm enjoying this little getaway from the daily headache also known at the Hazmats.

Oh but they've probably already heard my voice on here. Hey guys. I'm not dead.

[For a certain someone, she could be found in that secret cave at the far end of the island. He knows where. But for everyone else, you could MAYBE catch her wandering around town, looking at stalls or maybe just sitting by the fountain. She'll be wearing a cloak with her hood up. So good luck.]

Dammit woman.

[hi he missed you]

Where are you this time? Don't say spiders. No more spiders, we got trouble enough.

[anelegantmyth]

Let's call it my home away from home. Don't worry, the spiders here aren't as big as the last place.

[youhearthebells]

You're safe, then? [a sigh of relief. Good.]

We're on Empieza, we just got here. Let me know if ya need to be picked up again.

[anelegantmyth]

Oh...I thought you guys were out at sea or something. I mean, it's been months since I disappeared, right?

[ Well, so much for a quiet getaway. She couldn't not tell him she was in IE too. They might leave without her if she didn't. ]

I don't need picking up.

[youhearthebells]

Nah, about a week.

...wait, what's that mean? You're not leavin' us, are ya?

[anelegantmyth]

What if I said I was?

[youhearthebells]

Whaaaaat? [a bit of a roar] Cynthia, come on! I been worried about ya! Thought you'd ended up on the other end of the world in danger again!

[anelegantmyth]

Oh no, I'm perfectly safe here and...wait, you were worried about me?

[youhearthebells]

[grunt grumble grunt] 'Course I was.

Hang on, somebody's at the ship...

[delivery time?]

[anelegantmyth]

[ She'll just be there, listening patiently. Also slightly amused that he actually believed her. ]

Take your time.

[youhearthebells]

[he comes back pretty quickly]

...did you order stuff from Margie before you disappeared?

[anelegantmyth]

Nope, not before. But I did about a few days after I came back, regained my memory and found that October specials entry on the journals.

I mean, just because I'm not there doesn't mean I won't do my job.

[He was a little annoyed, truth be told, although towards whom, he wasn't quite sure.

But they'd gotten into port, and Gaius set off into town, leaving the more menacing of his belongings and armor behind in favor of his usual thiefy attire, complete with his bandolier of lollipops. Out of habit, he'd swung by the bakery to see if they had anything new, and get his cut from the sweets he'd either helped prepare from before or left recipes for since the last stop.

And soon enough he's armed with lunch, a chilled cheesecake - pumpkin, he was told- heading towards the beach. The one less traveled. At least he's relatively sure he remembers the cave from before.

Out on the beach, he looks out towards the water. Something in his memory stirs as he soaks in the view. Yeah. He's pretty sure this is the place. And then the cave should be over...that way.]

[anelegantmyth]

[ As luck would have it, Lucario was in charge of scouting the area today. Of course, seeing the ginger didn't surprise him in the slightest. He knew how the man was. But his trainer had ordered all her pokemon not to make contact with her crew mates while they were on their little getaway. She didn't want them coming to her and begging her to come back. It was weird enough coming from Ning.

But Lucario really wanted some of that cheesecake. ]

[willwork4sugar]

[Na-uh, Lucario. Fool him once, shame on him, fool him twice-

Gaius obviously isn't letting that cheesecake out of his sight. Pumpkin flavored, must be a season thing. It's supposed to be fall or something about now, right? Funny how you kind of lost track of seasons when you were on a ship out in the open seas.

Pausing, he listens, standing still as he feels like he's being watched. Then after a moment, he continues on his way towards the cave.]

[anelegantmyth]

[ Eelektros wasn't as disciplined though. This was a new world, he was some new strange looking person. So, of course, she wanted to check him out and get a closer look. The "no talking to the crew" rule didn't really apply to her since she didn't know who was and wasn't a member of Hazmat.

She emerges from the water and slithers towards the man with the cheesecake. Looking him dead in the eye. Not to intimidate, just to examine. ]

[willwork4sugar]

[Hearing something come from the water, Gaius turns, and then blinks. That's...nothing he's familiar with. He takes a step back, staring at the creature in turn.]

Um...

1/2

[anelegantmyth]

[ She gives the man a good look over. Her trainer did mention she had a handsome ginger friend in this world. Was it this guy? He WAS ginger.

But no that can't be right. He isn't handsome in the slightest!]

2/2

[anelegantmyth]

[ ...whelp, he did ask for a distraction. Now given, it wasn't the best distraction in the world. But it was definitely good enough for the job. In that exact moment, the dog rushes towards the ginger, swipes the cake, then dashes off.

Thank you Eelektross. ]

[willwork4sugar]

[Gaius scowls at the thing- and then turns as he hears movement. He turns just as Lucario nabs his cheesecake.]

'ey! Lucario! Get back here, you know that's not yours!

[Leaving the eel Pokemon, Gaius dashes after the blue dog.]

[anelegantmyth]

[ She wasn't really paying much attention to her Lucario as it ran into the cave with Arceus knows what in its paws. No, she was too busy enjoying her view from the mouth of her little cave. It's been such a long time since she first stayed here and man it brought back fond memories.

As for Lucario, he put the cake down on one of the crates in the cave. He wanted to eat it on the spot. But he had to wait for everyone else. ]

[willwork4sugar]

[The thief darts inside not too long after, glaring after Lucario.]

Sweets- you better tell your blue dog thing to go find his own cheesecake if he's not going to at least ask first before swiping mine!

[And then he pauses, looking towards Cynthia then.]

...

[anelegantmyth]

Are you sure he wasn't just super excited to see you? I mean, who wouldn't be when you bring cheesecake.

[ She doesn't tear her eyes away from the horizon. But she does pat the patch of sand next to her.]

[willwork4sugar]

Yeah, which is why he nabbed the cheesecake without even waving hello.

[He walks over to reclaim that cheesecake, thank you very much, before walking over to where Cynthia's sitting.]

[anelegantmyth]

That may have been my fault. I told my pokemon not to make contact with any hazmat till I decide to head back to the crew. He was probably just following orders.
