Mesprit and Tucker's engagement party!

[dome_ace]

[The island sure is a bit chilly these days, isn't it? Well, today really isn't any different - except for one fairly large spot not far from the CMA, which seems to have been miraculously blessed with sunny, warm weather.

That would be because there's an Arcanine - Tucker's - using Sunny Day just a few steps from a large wooden gazebo-like

[There was something about today that had the pink-haired sprite all worked up and excited since the moment she awoke from a well-rested sleep. All Mesprit knew was that Tucker asked her to meet him somewhere, and she had a feeling that it was for their special party.

Apparently, the Island must have been in on the whole occasion somehow, as it provided Mesprit with a longer dress than usual for today... a much fancier and strapless dress to be exact. Even her long ponytailed hair is down, looking a bit wavy against the straight fabric - she seems to be getting used to trying something new lately.

After a little bit of traveling [though she levitated off the ground a bit, so as not to get her dress dirty so soon], the sprite and her cottonbird arrive at the scene, and a gasp of amazement and awe escapes her. She's quite easy to spot, as her forehead gem has finally regenerated and the expression on her lightly-blushing face is one of surprise and joy.]

...oh! How beautiful!

[As if to signal to his Daddy, Alto flaps his wings and

[dome_ace]

[The really awesome thing about her levitating a little off the ground is that it brought her at near-perfect eye level with Tucker. The Dome Ace is really tall, and the height gap with the one you love can be a bitch. Mesprit's dress is so beautiful and ethereal, and Tucker, in spite of being more than used to all the techniques and subterfuges of beauty, can feel his heart pound in chest a little, just seeing it.]

It's nowhere as beautiful as you, my princess. That dress... it's as if the Gods themselves had woven it for you. And here you come, my love, an angelic vision clad in eternal splendor... And who am I to resist you, when every thread of that delicate silk ensnares my heart, leaving it no escape?

[He extends a hand to her, the gesture gentlemanly and yet somewhat hesitant, as if Mesprit was an illusion and he were afraid she would fade as soon as he touched her.]

Come, my princess. Let me show you around.

[roamin_emotion]

[She'll keep levitating for a bit longer; it's good to be of eye level, especially when she's smiling at those comments. She does lower her head shyly, her blush overtaking much of her face, but those gold eyes continue to meet with his.]

Ah, thank you so much, Tucker! You know, you look rather handsome yourself!

[Without a word and allowing her emotional expressions to do the talking for her, Mesprit accepts his hand with a trusting yet excited smile... and maybe a little giggle too. She doesn't want Tucker to worry - for now, she's not going anywhere.]

[try_my_luck]

[Oh my god, Tucker, they can probably see this from Hoenn. Of course, Lucy really didn't expect much less from you, as you have a tendency toward the unnecessarily flashy, but still.

She isn't exactly too thrilled about being here, but she did indicate that she'd come; she thinks it's slightly ridiculous that the island decided to...encourage her to dress up a bit for the occasion, especially given that she doesn't like skirts, but she supposes that this is a rare enough event to render it tolerable.

Either way, this is awkward, so she'll just be cutting to the chase and approaching you, Tucker, if you don't mind.]

I told you I'd be here.

[dome_ace]

[OMG YOU CAME *-* Tucker is happy now. Very happy. Which is probably bad news for you, Lucy. He's quick to grab her wrists in his hands, bringing them together.]

Lucy, my friend! I knew you would come! Please, step inside! We have all kinds of refreshments, I'm sure you'll find something to your liking! You can take your smaller Pokémon out, too, if you want!

[Oh, and by the way - he could have made it all much more flashy than this.]

[try_my_luck]

[Oh, she knows this isn't anywhere near as flashy as it could have been. She's not sure if that's a good or a bad thing, but she knows.

At the same time, since she's already here and therefore dooming herself to idle chitchat by default, she might as well...she glances around at the decorations, looking mildly bemused by it all, before deciding to spare Tucker any comment on that and returning her attention toward him.]

...you look very nice.

[dome_ace]

[Tucker releases one of her hands, but not the other, and. The brightest grin. You get it.]

Thank you, my friend. I'll personally make sure you look nice, too, when your turn comes!

[Using the grip that he still has on her other wrist, he leads her to the refreshment tables.]

See anything you like?

[be_my_sacrifice]

[Well, a new face on the island seems confused by all of the ruckus, and goes to check out what's going on. ...It seems the place has been dolled up quite a bit, and Minami seems to have a bit of a 'deer in headlights' look.]

Is something going on today..?

[dome_ace]

[Tucker dramatically points upwards, indicating the banner on the pavilion.]

Today, young lady, is a day of celebration! Of the purest love, love that can overcome any obstacle! I am Tucker, newly engaged to the beautiful Mesprit!

[be_my_sacrifice]

[Minami does look up, and her face imidantly lit up. Ah, this really is a day for celebration!]

Oh! Minami didn't read the signs! Minami's very happy for Tucker and Mesprit! [Brightest smile ever on Minami's face; yay happy time!]

[dome_ace]

Why, thank you, young lady! May I have the honor of knowing your name?

[masterofghosts]

*Pheoebe, along with her Banette and Sableye, walk up. Phoebe looks curious, and Sableye is looking for gems to take. Phoebe soon spots Tucker.*

Well now, even being trapped on an island hasn't changed your mood at all, or your fashion sense.

[dome_ace]

I'm afraid not, Miss Phoebe! Well, who could have known we would meet here? How have you been? Please, the three of you, step inside.

[masterofghosts]

Perhaps whoever brought us here?

*Phoebe and her ghosts enter, sableye right away going for the good china*

I'm doing alright, all things considering. So, tell me, who has captured your heart?

[dome_ace]

[S-said good china can be, let's say, a glittery heart-shaped porcelain centerpiece on one of the tables - th-there it goes. I-it was kind of tacky anyway. Tucker just grins.]

Ah, didn't you read the banner? Her name is Mesprit, and she's a splendid, pink-haired princess from the Sinnoh region.

[of_the_land]

[Giovanni was probably not formally invited to this party, but that must have been some mistake, because he belongs at every party. ...he does take pause when he sees the banner, though.]

Mesprit...?

[SOUNDS FAMILIAR.]

[dome_ace]

Ah, yes, Mesprit indeed! My fiancée.

Welcome, my friend! Remember me? Our paths haven't crossed since that magnificent battle you had! Please step inside! This celebration of a love that knows no boundaries is open to all!

[of_the_land]

Ah, yes. You're... rather memorable.

[That outfit.]

...a... love that knows no boundaries, you say...

[...Mesprit is a Pokemon isn't it-yes, one of the Sinnoh...

oh my god man you're fucking a Pokemon. He will keep this personal horror to himself, though.]

[dome_ace]

[Well, at least he's wearing a white suit right now? Though... it is a little blindingly white. And as for that other thing, they haven't... consummated yet! They're going to wait until they're married! Or, alternatively, until their desire takes over. Idk.

He will nod slowly at you, Giovanni, tilting his head to the side with a polite smile and a knowing look in his eyes - the unspoken question is "any comments?"]
