Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ausa trotted to the house in his wolf form, which was plenty warm being that it had thicken from the seasons changing. Sitting on the front porch, he scratched at the door and whined. "A little help here, no hands at the moment!" He yelled as he started to shiver ever so slightly. It had began to snow just recently and the snow was now beginning to stick to his fur. With his things tucked into his backpack, he just hoped his Pokemon weren't too cold. He just couldn't imagine what it was like to be inside a ball for hours on end. Maybe that's why a lot of them tended to let themselves out.

Bell looked over at other trainers and Pokemon roaming around and stood on the tips of her little feet to hopefully gain attention. "Dish Dish Oddish" She said, begging for help from someone to help her get down from the table. If the chair hadn't been moved, she could hop onto it and then onto the floor, but it was still too high for a proper landing. She could get hurt, especially since she was top heavy.

Riyo felt a little relieved when she was told that she wasn't the only one who'd forgotten the 'most important holiday of the year'. "Christmas has never been my thing anyways. Like you said... More of a family thing. ANd you've probably already gathered that I don't have that." She said and leaned back in her chair, glancing over at Calamity and Lancelot.

Good thing she did, too. Because at that moment, Calamity bucked the little red Riolu right off of his back and into Riyo's lap. "oof!" Riyo shouted as she caught him and lifted him up to look at him sternly. "Alright you." She began. "Leave Calamity alone... Do something that's not potentially destructive."

Lancelot frowned slightly and looked up at her "i sry ." He said, then blinked. "wut will u hav mi do, m'ladie?"

Riyo looked around for a moment, wondering what she could get him to do, then had an idea. She looked to Blade for a moment. "Hold on." Then stood up and carried Lancelot over to a bookshelf. Sure enough, they had Christmas books. "Alright." She said and sat the little pokemon on his feet, who stared up at her curiously. "You can be a good Pokemon and read your fellow pokemon Christmas stories! You know how to read, don't you?"

Lancelot stared up at her for a moment. Did he know how to read? Yes. Well? Oh no. Of course, he wasn't about to tell her that. She was giving him a mission, a quest! He smiled as she handed him a book of Christmas stories and trotted over to the middle of the room.

"OKAY EVERY1 I TELL U CHRISTMAS STORIEZ NAO ! " He yelled out to get someones attention and sat down in the middle of the floor, opening the book and looking through the stories.

Calamity, who was still a little shaken from the disturbance, looked at Lancelot angrily... But quickly shrugged it off. He.. Was young. And didn't always know that his actions weren't always the best. So, with a large exaspirated sigh, he walked over to where Lancelot was sitting and layed down a short distance away. Enough to hear his story.

Vex's head perked up as he heard the young Riolu shout out. A story? Sounded awesome! He made a sprint over to the middle of the room and also parked in front of Lancelot.

Riyo smiled as she'd found something to keep him occupied and walked back over to the chair she'd been sitting in. "That takes care of that." She said, half to herself and half to Blade.

Fate was... A little overtaken by all the yelling and stomping going on around her. Even the corners were becoming crowded with unhappy people. Not to say she was unhappy.. But big crowds made her nervous. She crawled out from where she was and looked around, her frightened eyes scanning for danger. When she noticed... Another persian? Who also had a black coat. She blinked. Were her eyes decieving her?

Freeze cringed when the little brat started yelling about Christmas stories. Her face once again turned to disgust. She shook her head and moved over to where Riyo was sitting. It looked quiet over there, besides her talking to the naked man. Either way, it was better than listening to these buffons go on about their stupid holiday surrounding a fat old fart who broke into houses.

Ri-chan remained looking down from her spot in the Christmas tree. She could hear everything just fine from where she was, and was very much enjoying herself.

Nodding with a grin, Gouku was just about to dart into the christmas tree to join some of the others, but the shout from the red Riolu had diverted his attention. The Chimchar blinked momentarily before smiling even wider and rushing over towards Lancelot to add to his growing audience.

"Oooh... Story story!"

There, he sat down next to a golduck, which seemed vaguely familiar to him. Tilting his head to the side he peered at the other pokemon for a moment before jumping up with wide eyes.

"Vex! Is that you!?"

As several pokemon began to gather around one spot, the little Torchic thought on whether or not to join them. His trainer seemed to be doing better now, and he still had some company, so he figured it wouldn't hurt to relocate to where he could listen in on the story telling a little better.

"Good thinking."

Blade couldn't help but snicker a little at Lancelot's enthusiasm and how Riyo decided to get him occupied with something that didn't seem all too chaotic. Shaking his head to himself, he looked back towards her and nodded lightly.

"But yeah... as far as I know, I don't either. Though, I have to say that with some of the crazy shopping that goes around, it makes things a little easier to... borrow here and there. Other than that, and getting to see some really insane decorating jobs... there isn't much to it for me. Too bad I wasn't able to snag myself some new clothes earlier though..."

Sadie caught a string of lights and fanned them out before moving to hook them to the eves of the center. She had had Razor keep an eye on Dart to make sure the old brute didn't do anything they would all regret, her other pokemon were wondering about, Hopper was still using Freeza as an over sized slide, though she didn't mind, it was getting crowded and she moved toward the door and slipped outside and into the cold. That was better and she chose to create a large snowfall and throw it at Ziggy's back while she wasn't looking.

Soot looked around in the kitchen as she sat up beside Meni, her nose twitching as she looked back at an oddish? The leaves on its head looked... Fabulously tasty. Shaking her head she leaped onto Meni's back to at least see better, she was hungry and would eat just about anything...*

Though he did try to behave, but it wasn't him, never once since the day he was born, tossed aside, and now thrown into the hands of another incompetent trainer. Dart was getting fed up with what he was being shoved into. Thumping the floor again with his club of a tail, this one leaving a dent in the tile, Dart growled lowly, letting the floor shake around him. He could end this 'joyful' time of year with a simple attack, then there wouldn't be any need for holiday cheer...

Glacier and Bell walked around most of the center, killing a little time while they waited for a story. Glacier eyed Dart when he felt that shockwave on the ground, but Bell flailed her leaves some. "Dish" She said, not wanting him to even think about it. "I wasn't going to start anything....but if I was three times my size, I'd take him" He said and Bell sighed. "Dish Dish Odd" She said, meaning he had to be ten times his size to go against that monster. Why was it so important for Glacier to fight a colossal titan like him? It was too confusing for her to think about.

Dexed had been hearing about a Christmas party going on and he had finally mustered up the courage to come, even though he did come with a book of all things which he was trying to use to avoid eye contact with people. He seemed to be reading a pokemon encyclopedia. Following him around was Lightning the Magneton, watching his new master's every move and eyeing the rest of the pokemon dangerously for some reason. Dexed still had no idea why this Magneton was following him but so far it didn't seem to be causing him any trouble. From behind the book he watched everyone cheer and talk, bashfully watching from a corner. It was hard to tell his personality. He tried to give off a hostile demeanor but it was apparent that half of that was just shyness.

(Sorry if not much is known about my character. When I finally get around to completing my Pokemon Journal more things should clear up. Just thought I would start Rping xD)
