Waves and Relaxation [Damianos + Everest]

(( @freexstyle ))

It was a relaxing day all in all for Domino today. There hadn’t been much work of late, mainly because he had mostly finished his recordings. Now, all that was left to do was to ‘appreciate the calm before the storm,’ as his producer put it. He would happily do so, and found the perfect place to do just that.

It was a somewhat large city that went by the name of Humilau. It seemed almost like a resort in and of itself, with the sun shining down and warming everything under it. It was perfect, and Domino was in love. He had his whole crew out, and they had made a small section of the beach theirs.

His Ludicolo were already at it, dancing together in the sand. Prince was curled up on a towel, under the umbrella Domino had brought. Domino and Princess were trying their best to make a sandcastle together, although Princess didn’t quite feel like putting in effort and instead left Domino to finish it. He couldn't help but look out at the water, squinting as he saw someone... Swimming to shore?

Jayden’s words were so damn inspirational. Just hearing pride in his brother’s voice, it made Domino smile wide. It was so great to hear him. He would do just as Jayden said, no matter how had the road got, or how much he was going to go through. He couldn’t be scared to accomplish his dreams, there wasn’t any time to mess around with that. Domino was about to reply, to give him some encouraging words back, but then he turned his head to the door, only to see the one and only Sophie.

“Sis!” He smiled and opened his arms for her, wrapping them around her and keeping his balance on the stool. “There you are, I was waiting here forever, you know? Jeez!” Of course, Domino was only joking, and he punctuated that with a small laugh. “Your hair is getting so long, my goodness. It looks so great too, you’ve been doing a great job taking care of it!”

Domino was so happy to see her again, and it warmed his heart as Sophie hugged and snuggled into him. Domino gently pat her head, almost ready to cry. He was so damn emotional at times like these, especially after him and Jayden had just sat down and started thinking about the old times. It was just too much, and he had to wipe his eyes to prevent himself from bursting out into tears, right there and then.

Brothers in Flowers [Damianos + Jayden]

The musician stared over to his best friend, nodding along. It was hard to believe they’ve been on the road for this long, that the times when they used to camp out in the basement and play were so far away. Some of his favorite memories were with Domino, smelling like flowers, getting their nails painted, singing his sisters to sleep…and the crazy babysitting adventures. He let out a small laugh. Even thinking about it made him crack up.

“Well ya gotta lemme see that schedule when ya get it done! Ain’t no way I’m missing out on my bro’s concerts! You’re livin the dream bro. Keep ahold of that, and don’t ever let it go. Follow that dream, and chase it til ya can’t run anymore. Don’t worry, they forgive ya. I know they do.” He paused, shaking his head. He was starting to get all emotional. And he couldn’t have that. But proud…he was so proud of his bro. Who knew what life had in store for them? But all that mattered was they were going to stick through everything until the end. Jayden was about to say something else until he heard the door open.

Without getting a second to say his schtick about the flower shop, he saw long brown hair and quick feet running to the counter. Sophie was back, and she was really excited to see a familiar redhead at the shop. He felt sorry for his bro, because he got tackled with a hug. His sister was clinging onto him, babbling about how much she missed him. It touched him, and he couldn’t help but feel emotional again. “Surprise Sophie!” The brunette looked up to him and Domino and then went straight back to clinging onto him. “Brothers, I missed you so much.”

Prince nuzzled her hand, happy t finally have some good attention! This lady was super nice, and her Pokemon was as well! All in all, he was most definitely having a fantastic time, and he would rate this day a ten out of ten already. Domino actually would have agreed, realizing that, yes indeed, he was talking with an actual celebrity like she was just a normal person. It made butterflies flutter in his stomach, and he was quite excited.

Diantha stopped petting him, and he crawled up to drape himself over Domino’s shoulders. The idol smiled as the Gardevior inspected him, and he was happier yet when it was in approval. “I am honored,” He couldn’t repress the smile on his face. “Well, I was hoping to maybe get some inspiration for some song writing, but...” He cast a sideways glance at the Eevee, who was just too cute and innocent to have done too much wrong.

Almost in the blink of an eye, he was being dragged along by the celebrity. He kept pace though, especially once he heard ‘paparazzi.’ One day, this would probably be him, running away from the paparazzi after his concerts or something.... That made his head spin though, that was so insane to think about! The whole ordeal of their running was almost comical, movie like, and as they stepped into the garden, Domino’s eyes went wide, and he looked around.

Her summer home?

“It is very beautiful,” Domino nodded in approval, instantly looking at the flowers. He was going to be even more homesick at this rate, they were so beautiful. “I do not mind, miss Diantha. I apologize for forgetting that the paparazzi were probably after you.” The redhead laughed a little bit before looking around some more. The garden was so well tended, and that made Domino even happier.

Starstruck [Damianos + Diantha]

She smiled at Eevee and gave it a few gentle strokes on its fur. The Pokemon that this young man man had was extremely endearing; not often did she get to stop and pet such an adorable Pokemon. Judging by the Eevee’s happy cry, the Normal-type felt the same way. Prince felt warm in her hands and she smiled again, the sensation was extremely pleasing.

“Pleasure, Damianos! And many thanks.” Isabel, her Gardevior, floated over to join her trainer and gazed into the man’s eyes. After a while, the Pokemon nodded and Diantha chuckled. “She’s taken a shine to you Damianos. Not often does my girl Isabel do that.”

“Prince seems to like her as well!” she added, chuckling. She gently caressed the Eevee and handed him over to his trainer. “Well,” she began, “what brings you around here, Damianos?” The town that they were both situated in was not heavily populated and as such was more of a well kept secret amongst Kalosians as a getaway spot from the sights and sounds of Lumiose City. 

Isabel began nudging Diantha all of a sudden and when she turned, it seemed that the paparazzi was about to catch up. “Come Damianos! We cannot stay here!” She grabbed ahold of his hand and began dragging him through the winded streets of the town until such time a small door appeared. She went through it, pulled the young man through and shut it. They were now in a lush garden bordering a beautiful mansion. “Apologies, Damianos, I hope you do not mind this sudden intrusion. This is my summer home. We should be safe here.”  

[aspiringpokeaidoru-blog]

Princess yawned in response, shifting around to get comfortable in Ary’s lap. He was so comfortable, and Princess couldn't help but giggle a little as Ary played with her feet. She wiggled around some more before getting completely comfortable, going somewhat limp right there. 

Domino smiled and pet Blaine some more, shaking his head. “Strutting his stuff, huh? I could see it, with looks like that.” He laughed a little at the thought. It was certainly very cute. “Oh? Do you?” Domino turned his head to look at Ary. “Titles indeed. Prince earns his because he acts so spoiled...” He couldn’t imagine how much attention the small brown Pokemon would be demanding from this nice man if he let him out right now.

There he was, talking about Lumiose City once more. He would totally have to go there, to meet other small- err... Other interesting people there, and maybe see some more adorable Pokemon. That sounded like a plan, maybe he could talk to his producers about going on a trip there? There had to be something going on there, really...

Tiny Musings [Damianos + Ary]

Domino stared up at Volkner when he made the comment about his Eevee, and he laughed nervously. The look on his face was rather funny, to say the least. He didn't know what to do beside let his Eevee yip and yip and yip and yip. The redhead was finally pulled to his senses as the noise reverberated in his head, and he picked up the Eevee.

Prince seemed satisfied by this development, and he decided to drape himself around the idol’s shoulders, closing his eyes. The Normal-Type Pokemon could be an absolute brat sometimes, and this was one of those moments. Domino looked at Volkner some more, his face nearly as red as his hair. 

“I apologize for Prince’s actions... He meant no harm, really.” He hoped that Volkner wasn’t upset or too terribly frightened by his Eevee’s rather loud yipping. “He just... Demands attention. A lot.” It was an absolutely terrible habit, but one that Domino unknowingly fueled himself. He fave the little brat attention whenever it wanted it. Prince had him trained well.

Domino stared back down at his notebook. Any inspiration he had was chased out in favor of pure embarrassment, and he didn’t quite know what to do with himself now. That was rather upsetting, but the idol shrugged it off.

“If you don’t mind me asking, what are you doing out here so early? I noticed that there aren’t many people around at this hour...”

Dewdrops on Flowers

[ϟ] - Was he a morning person? No, of course not! If you suggested any activity that required the early hours he would laugh, a sarcastic cackle, and then deadpan with a nonchalant expression that rivaled Ditto’s.

He snapped shut his phone and a sigh followed closely behind. It was typical of his fiery friend to make plans during the crack of dawn, though he would prefer it if the plans where later in the day. Whatever…he was grateful Flint even made an effort in a weird way. Even though today he would want nothing more than to hole up in his lab and finish his latest equipment, Flint just insisted they visit National Park. Said the nature setting would ‘do him some good’. 

He didn’t care about that but an idea popped up in his head. It was the perfect opportunity for his newly acquired Joltik to get used to the outside world! So he brought the shy, little electric bug along with him, making sure it didn’t try to hide in his pocket or under his shirt. The little guy needs to grow some backbone.

Except…a person in question couldn’t make it. Volkner absentmindedly fiddled with his phone before shoving it in his jacket pocket, ignoring the hundred of texts rolling in with what he would assume are apologies. Being one of the Elite Four has no set schedules and he knows that but he’s still a little butthurt. He woke up this early only to have his plans canceled and now he hates himself and the rising sun.

A tug in his hair jolted him out of his thoughts. He chuckled and reach up to pet the offending thing.

“Hey hey don’t try to make me bald here or you’ll have to be my wig, bud-”

A sudden yap nearly caused him to shout in surprise. Instead he chose to stare stupidly, wide-eyed at an Eevee. It wasn’t even loud but combined with the still, quiet atmosphere of the park and his distracted sleep muddled mind, it caught him off guard. 

“…someone seems awake at least…” 

[aspiringpokeaidoru-blog]

Domino brightened up with Jayden’s praise, and he nodded with a big smile. “It is! It’s a lot different from here though...” He found himself starting to reminisce as well. The times after coming home from school, the contents of the day not mattering in the slightest, but the time they spent together, whether it was with the sisters, when they would paint their nails and Jayden begrudgingly agreed as well, or when Domino and Jayden would perform what they liked to call ‘lullaby concerts,’ all to get the sisters to fall asleep faster so they could go play games or sing and write songs together... All of those memories were played to the scent of flowers, and Domino would remember them whenever he came back to the small Sinnoh town, or whenever he managed to get his apartment to smell like the bright plants.

“Or course, bro.” Domino clapped Jayden on the shoulder, grinning. “I’m not heading out for a while, bro. Gotta see the sister’s first.” He couldn’t help but pull Jayden into a tight hug, letting him go quickly. “Ahh, I... Everything is going so well, bro. I have songs to sing, and I have a concert lined up, even!... It’s insane, bro. I’m going to be achieving my dream.” It was coincidence that making people happy went hand in hand with singing in front of people, and making people happy by existing and being a figure they could watch. Happiness was the goal.

“I hope they have been doing well,” he switched back to the subject of the sisters. “I should text them more often, I have all the free time in the world. Those time zones though, those are killer. When it’s morning for me, it’s probably late afternoon here, huh?” Domino should really start figuring out what the best times to message people are, all things considered. “They forgive me though, right? That’s good.”

Brothers in Flowers [Damianos + Jayden]

Jayden’s eyes went wide, for the second time that day. He had really taken off. He had heard stories of people hitting it big by knowing the right people, and his bro was a prime example. Domino had always been talented, and he was damn glad that he managed to find somebody in the business to kick him off the ground. Jayden on the other hand, he wasn’t too rushed to get started in that flashy stuff yet. He hadn’t even finished his first album yet! What sort of musician didn’t have a full set of songs ready to go? It wasn’t gonna be him!

Sitting down behind the counter, he started back at staring at the ceiling. It had been a long time since the two of them were back in the small town of Floaroma. He could remember babysitting his twin sisters with Domino, taking care of the shop for his parents, and having epic bro adventures. Man those were the days…but he was starting to daydream and needed to focus.

“Eh? Well look at ya go and be a big shot without me! Nah, just teasin’ that’s so great bro! I’m proud of ya! Nimbasa…huh? Sounds like a pretty exciting place to be. And yaknow I’m a sucker for an adventure like that. Maybe I’ll head over that way and kick down your apartment door and we can hit the streets!” He paused, turning his gaze back to Domino. “I know they miss ya lots. They ask me about how you’ve been doing and I tell them the best I can what’s goin’ on. They understand, you’ve got big plans after all! I know they’ll be stoked to hear about this! If we stick around for a few more minutes, Sophie should be back with whatever she needed and ya can say hi!”

Do not encourage the worst thoughts in your head.

Raven Emotion

[aspiringpokeaidoru-blog]

Prince yipped from his place around Domino’s shoulders, not pleased with this situation at all. They should have been on their way home by now, where they would cuddle up and watch a few movies or something! The popcorn! Think about the popcorn! He obviously wasn’t happy with any of this, and his tail flicked in irritation. 

The red head sighed, but he seemed to smile also. “Well then, we’re stranded officially. My name is Damianos, by the way.” He extended his hand for her to grab. “If we’re stuck in here, we might as well pretend to be friendly.” Domino chuckled at his not-funny joke, trying to make the mood a little lighter. It was his job, after all.

“Do you have any suggestions on what to do next?” He wasn’t sure if they should just sit down and wait it out, or maybe look for another exit. He didn’t even think about the possibility of getting lost. His Eevee yipped once more, and Domino placed a finger on it’s nose, silencing him for right now. His yipping wasn’t going to get the two of them anywhere.

He glanced at the Crustle blocking the way, also looking at Magnum in the process. Domino thought the Pokemon could take them on, but by the way she was restraining him, that wasn’t something that could happen. Which was fine, Domino wouldn’t let his Pokemon fight them either. Really, they weren’t doing anything wrong, this was probably normal for the Crustle. no need to mess with their routine. He soon mused about how long it would take for the tide to go down, and if waiting was really a viable option.

[EVENT] Ocean Paradise [Damianos + Wes]

(( @shadowoforre ))

The S.S. Anne. This is where everyone was right now. He had asked his producers about it, and the second he displayed an interest in the trip, they had arranged his schedule so that he could go. It was really thoughtful of them to do that, at least that’s what he thought. Sure, there would be some people there that were famous… And Domino being around them would also make him a little well known… And his producers were whispering about a possible concert. How cool would that be?!

He wasn’t really focused on that at the moment. No, instead he had his Eevee draped around his neck, and he had his sunglasses on. He was ready for vacation! He stuck close to his ticket partner, a man named Wes. The boarding was absolutely crazy on this ship, with some weirdo screaming about frozen water, another guy holding a green sign, and some guy and girl getting close. Jeez, how hectic was this going to be?

“Well, Wes.” Damianos smiled, tilting his head to the side. “What'cha think so far?”

[aspiringpokeaidoru-blog]

“Indeed and agreed.” Domino snuggled Blaine some more, happy to be talking to this man. He was certainly an interesting character, and not in a bad way. He was also short, and that was certainly a bonus.

At his question, Domino nodded with a smile. “She is quite adorable when we cuddle, she likes to wiggle around and try to get comfortable, usually as close to the popcorn bowl as possible.” He laughed quietly as the scene replayed in his head once more. “I have an Eevee, and he likes to drape himself around my neck and shoulders like a scarf. He expects me to feed him while he are all cuddled together.”

Domino scratched Blaine behind the ear, smiling. “Blaine seems like a trouble-maker, certainly. All that boundless energy has to be put to some use, doesn’t it?” Domino had half a mind to go and get himself one of these Pokemon, or pray to Shaymin that he could get in a photo shoot with one. Jeez, this Pokemon was far too cute for his own good.

Princess soon settled down, finding her own fit on Ary's lap and laying back against him. She almost looked worn out, attention overdose, if that was possible. She simply laid there, wiggling her little feet and watching the people walking around them.
