Hey! I'm not sure if everyone watches the EV News - I do, and they have the catchiest little intro jingle, don't you think? [ Pausing to hum that. You're welcome. ]

Anyway! Is anyone planning to go to this prom thing? And has anyone else managed to procquire a silver ticket? I have to say that seeing all those pokeballs drop from the sky was sort of fun! I actually can't take credit for catching my silver ticket, though - Panini caught it. I think he was sort of having a field day with things to catch from the sky, actually. I'll have to keep that in mind for the future.

I've never been to a dance before. So I entirely plan to go! Besides, it sounds like it's happening in a new place, which is exciting. Have any of you been to dances before, though? I wouldn't mind hearing about them if you have!

[Dirk's got a ticket of his own, but it's in a pocket somewhere. He's attempting casual right now when he glances over from browsing through his own pokegear.]

I'm considering it.

[ That's not the enthusiastic yes she wanted! ...Okay, she knew that probably only Jake was going to give an enthusiastic yes. ]

According to the travel plans - hitch a ride with a gym leader there and back - I think we can actually skip ahead if everyone does agree to go. Whiiiich is the argument I plan to use for Sollux.

Catching mine was easy-peasy. Although Talent predicted which one I should catch.

And I have to go! Being here means I'm not going to get to go to my senior prom ever, so a Pokeprom will have to do. It'll be better anyway, in all but one way.

I'm already figuring out what dress to wear, and what swimsuit to wear under it so I can go swimming quick as I want! Most of my Pokemon are super excited too!

Eugh, no.

[Aradia can now enjoy one shrug from this loser, currently typing something nearby. Let other people have their tickets, he doesn't give a damn about some psychobitch Gym Leader and her ego-stroking party. It's for losers and people who actually think that there will be anything of value to be achieved there.]

Talent?

Oh, I hadn't even thought about dresses! ...I'll just ask Kanaya for advice later. Do you think the pokemon are meant to dress up, too?

Also, what is a "senior prom"?

[ Color her shocked. EXCEPT NOT AT ALL. Aradia is rolling her eyes at you briefly, Sollux. ]

I already knew you didn't want to go to the dance! That's why I'm asking someone else.

But you should at least go to the resort - logically speaking, I'm pretty sure we can use it to skip to the next city. Since we have to arrive with a gym leader, and go back with one...but it didn't say anywhere that we have to go back with the same gym leader we left with. So we could cut our travel time down...!

[ She's giving him an expectant look now. ]

I'm usually more used to school dances rather than an actual party but a friend won't stop bugging me unless I say yes.

Haven't really thought about what outfit to wear though.

Orochi was scavenging something to eat when I got my ticket. I'm afraid he would've ate it if I didn't get it in time.

I've never went to an actual dance before but I'm assuming this might be some kind of big party. I'm definitely planning on going.

It wasn't hard to get mine. Gear saw something shiny falling from the sky, started screeching up a storm, and brought it back to me like an overeager puppy.

[He shakes his head, brushing a hand through his hair.]

But I think I'll be going. I'd have to be crazy to miss out on an event this big.

So you've been to a lot of them before?

Me either! But I'm sure something will come up, probably. Either way, aren't you excited to see the resort?

That's terrific, Misaki! Save me a dance, okay?

I wonder what brought this prom thing on, though.

Haha, it sounds like people's pokemon have been pretty handy about getting the tickets.

And in a place none of us have ever gone before, to my knowledge! I wonder if there's a reason for the prom thing, or if they decided to do it just for fun?

Maybe they just got bored. It's not like things have been too eventful other than Rocket attacks, so if you ask me, this is way overdue.

[Plus, new locations sound awesome. He's gonna want to explore the place from top to bottom if he has his way.]

Well, true. Even gym leaders need to have fun sometimes! Or especially them?

Come to think of it, they probably don't get many chances to meet up, all of them at once.

[ Aradia will also want to explore, but exploring locations and ruins is sort of her exact cup of tea, so that's no surprise. ]

Dances are quite wonderful events. I admit it does not quite sound as formal as the ones I'm used to, but I'd not miss it for anything in the world.

I'll probably be going. I went to dance clubs back home but we didn't really have dance parties like this.

Yours are more formal? How so? And I'll definitely see you there, then!!

Be sure to save me a dance!

I never went to a dance club, either. ...actually, I'm not sure we had any? Did people do anything but dance at them?

[He would give an enthusiastic yes if he were not Dirk.]

Whatever works. What, you're not trying to get a chance to drag him into a dance anyway?

We usually have balls for the court or to honor foreign dignitaries, so a certain decorum is expected, sadly.

[Which means he can't show off his awesome moves.]

We also dance at weddings, but we've not had many of those recently.

[Kanaya just smiles faintly, holding up her own ticket between two fingers.]

Blink and Twinkle were quite efficient at finding it, I hadn't realized they worked so well together...

[Frankly, she assumes anyone in a relationship works badly together at this point.]

And I doubt you have to guess if I am going. [Because dresses.]

If Temeraire doesn't keep me occupied, I'll be sure.

I'm not sure myself. You think it has anything to do with the concert in Olivine?

My Espeon, he helps me with this or that.

I dunno, some of mine I'll get some accessories for, but they seem to find my interest in clothes a bit weird! Dunno why.

Where I'm from, during the last bit of basic mandatory schooling you have high school. And in the last year of it you're a Senior, and they have a dance celebrating their graduation. I'm here instead of there.

I've been to one here and there. If you count concerts, I've been there too.

Resorts, as in vacations resorts? [She ponders for a bit.] That does sound really cool. I guess I can say I am. You too?

There used to be festivals here on a semi-regular basis that had dancing! All for different holidays, but they all always had dancing in some form or another. I think the people who organized them left, so they never really happen anymore...
