(Dante, Sao)
Ran was amused by the dragonair. ("It's so hard to ignore the truth isn't it? Don't worry, I'm sure your master likes you even if you are useless.") She preened casually as the tango music stopped.
Mau slowly let Nyx go before standing up with her. He kissed her hand- more for show than anything else. "You're a very quick learner." He smiled. "Enjoy mingling. I'll catch up to you in a moment." Mau nodded to her, his gaze flickering to the dragonair. When she was on her way, Mau headed towards the refreshments to fetch he and Nyx a flute of champagne. As he picked them up, he heard a familiar name.
Aila? Hn.... oh yes, the girl they'd met at the museum. Decent fighter if he recalled. Did she have contacts here? Though glancing up relieved that the girl in question was not the same as those in the Rocket ranks. He shrugged it off, thinking it must have been some coincidence and went to catch up to Nyx.

(Seth)
There was the opposite of resistance - as Seth began to move that extra inch his redheaded dance partner angled and lifted her face, the hand on his back sliding upwards to cradle his cheek, fingers caught on his jaw. They rose like that, slowly, and when lips parted and eyes opened hers were hazy and hooded.
"Hardly professional," she murmured to him after a long pause, smiling a private smile.
If Seth and Nadja were only pretending to be a couple, they were very, very good at it.
The maned man, still watching, seemed transfixed.

[Faleen]
The old man blinked and adjusted his monocle as the lovely young lady excused herself. "Certainly." He replied, somewhat surprised by her demeanor just now. He said nothing of it and simply let her go. Giving his Noctowl a light pat on the head.
[Nadja]
Giving a light snort of amusement at Nadja's words, Seth smirked lightly. His eyes remained fixed on her, until he felt someone else's on them. The moment broken as he glanced up to see a young man with black hair watching them. For a split second, a strange expression crossed Seth's face. As if he were a deer caught in the head lights. Then...
"Please excuse me," Seth suddenly said, and pulled away from Nadja. He didn't go towards the man, instead he headed in the opposite direction at a quick pace.

{Ran}
The dragonair shot Ran another glare.
Her trainer noticed this time and blinked at the lone pidgeot. Frowning, she stepped closer to the dragonair, placing a hand on her side, "..is this creature bothering you, Lilla?" She made a little shooing gesture at the bird, "Go on, back to your trainer."
- - -
And Carl slumped.

(Liam, god help him)
Falling into Isadora was rather like falling into a large waterbed mattress. "Oh! Heavens-" the woman started, inflating with indignation - until recognition dawned on her face, which took a moment. Clearly that glass of champagne hadn't been her first.. or her second.. or maybe even her third.
"Oh, Matthias," she slurred with what was probably meant to be a coy little flap of her hand. "It's right all quite, don't give it a second thought. I see," she took the champagne glass in wobbly fingers and leaned in closer with a low purr, "you've been enjoyi'g yourself quite a bit."

Aila's mouth fell agape. She didn't wait to internalize what she had just heard. She had seen enough already. Aila left the dance hall quickly, barely concealing the unparalleled rage from her expression as she did so. How dare that man. How dare he. He slew their father in his bed. His actions dug their mother's grave. He had no right. No right.
Teeth clenched, she left the hotel, dodging the security with all the dexterity characteristic of the professional thief she once was, and proceeded to the exterior of the wall that acted as the backdrop for that speech. Revenant followed with the occasional worried "dreeaa." She had been excited for the real party to start, but she had never seen such a terrible expression on her human's face and it was ...vaguely disconcerting.

(Carl)
Who are they talking about? She turned for a split second to see if their cover was blow. This was another, younger girl by the name of Aila that was called upon. She sighed as a swift figure passed by on her way to the drink table. The person she was trying to avoid all evening. Mau had passed in a rush, not once glancing Cal's way. That was heart wreaking. She did her best to ignore him, and yet she was hurt over this. She grabbed herself a fluted glass and downed it. But it tasted a bit odd.... That wasn't cider she was sipping. Her face heated to a reddening degree with embarrassment. She immediately put the glass down reaching for two glasses of what she the cider instead.
She approached Carl as he slumped, bowing slightly in his presence. "Would you like a drink sir?" Her pokemon and the Ninetails were right at her side so that she remained in view of Panther and Serena.

(Dragonair Lady)*with a little moloch
Nyx made a stop by Darwin on her way to the target. "Aww... Look at you two." She gave Moloch pat, always enjoying petting the fluffy dog. "No more dancing. Come on, Darwin." The electric pokemon frowned and reluctantly followed behind his trainer as she approached the Dragonair's owner.
"My, but thats a lovely Dragonair. Just how did you get her jewels so beautiful?" Nyx was fairly skilled at feigning interest, especially when she was interested in something CLOSE to what she was pretending to be.

{Cal}
Carl looked up, obviously surprised. He stared at Cal with wide eyes, then looked at the glass before nervously accepting it with a sweaty hand. "Th-thank you.."
Bruce, the black persian, stared at Cal with a bored expression.
{Nyx}
The brown-haired woman's attention was pulled from Ran as Nyx drew her eyes. She smiled, "Oh thank you." She stroked Lilla's side. The dragonair held her head high, "She comes by it naturally."

(Leonard and Claire)
Ethan gave Claire a friendly grin when she returned, raising an appreciative brow at the shiny Pikachu she was toting. Kind of a little chubber, though.. "Welcome back," he said. "This is-" ""Oshawott!" the Pokemon interjected.
"That," the man laughed, obviously proud of the attention being paid his prize. He looked over to Leonard. "Yeah, they're a standard starter Pokemon like Bulbasaur over there, but try finding one outside the region.. guess I got real lucky in that tournament. All Ace there, of course."
"Rav'," puffed Ace.
"See that shell on his stomach?" Ethan indicated. "When he evolves it'll turn into a set of armor, so I call him Spike."
"Showa." Spike thrust a paw at Steve in greeting. After a pause, he did likewise to Zeus despite the growl.

@Isadora (Can she join TR and be Liam's BFF?)
... As had she, Liam noted. "Yes," he replied, smiling all the more to know that she would be the perfect victim... if she even had a Pokemon worth stealing? Honestly, he hadn't seen one so far tonight, and he didn't know how much longer he had. Perhaps he could use his cunning to convince her to show (or possibly tell, not that he would be looking forward to reaching into her bodice to find the Pokeball she spoke of) exactly what she had worth stealing. After all, this was a ball for those who loved their Pokemon more than their own children... not that he suspected she had any.
"It seems you are enjoying yourself as well, Miss Isadora," he remarked, glancing around her not insubstantial figure looking for any hint of a Pokeball or the likes. "But... I should say, I do believe I heard you remarking on an absolutely wonderful Pokemon you brought with you while I was on the dance floor... yet I don't see it. You wouldn't happen to be keeping it from me because you think I would be jealous, do you?" He held out a hand while he spoke, not only to steady her (it wouldn't do well to be pinned under this woman while everyone else was making their escape) as to seem as compassionate and disarming as possible.

(Dante: Dragonair, Sao)
When Mau came up beside Nyx, she was already speaking with the owner of the dragonair. He looked up and smiled before turning and handing Nyx her drink. Ran had a slightly irritated gaze when she looked at Mau and Nyx. This dragonair was no fun to bother.
"Does she have a pedigree?" Mau asked softly. "She's quite magnificent. And her scales are so healthy looking."

{Nyx & Mau}
"Oh yes, she comes from a long line of very desirable dragonairs and dragonites. Bred from two shinies." She nodded proudly, still stroking Lilla's side.

(Panther)
"It's Leon of Grande Ile!" Serena whispered, drawing a bit closer to Kato than she probably meant to in her excitement.
Vulpes said nothing more than It didn't sound very.. believing, and a moment later he was weaving between couples on the dance floor until he found his trainer and bumped his nose against her skirt with a meaningful look.
"Oh.. yes, Vulpes, you're right." With an apologetic (and somewhat rueful) look at her dance partner, Serena withdrew to a distance appropriate for an unmarried young woman.

His sweaty had made her want to step back and continue with what she was doing, but that would have been rude. She gave him a warm smile a took a sip from her glass, "Let me introduce myself, my name is Tiffany Brooks." She curtsied, "And might I say, you have a lovely Persian with you."
(Panther and Serena)
From the corner of her eye, she saw the Ninetail's fleeting form walk into the crowd. She silently cursed her actions, but knew that Panther would be able to handle himself.
Blossom, eager to pursue, instead, stayed back in the same spot near her trainer. She told Shade.
