"Yes it is." Carey smiled and put her arms around both Dirk and Daphne. "Enjoy,"she beamed.

OOC: Double postin cause I want to. @Hide in Plain Sight; I'm doing this christmas thing so you can do your thing, so do it xD

IC: "She looks scared." Jared pouted as he looked at the Purrloin.

"She does," Alice frowned as she bent down, still a good distance away from the Purrloin. "I won't hurt you, baby. Come here." she began to release some calming energy towards the baby Purrloin.

The Purrloin shook her head and stayed put, tearing up. She remembered how cruel her master was, how he just booted her out the door, telling her how she was "genetically imperfect" when she didn't even get to battle even once.* And she was born a few days ago, too.

"People have ruined my life. Why should I trust you?!" The Purrloin asked, though she knew she wouldn't get a reply. "Because we aren't monsters. In myths, maybe, but not us." Kuroki replied, going underneath the couch and grabbed the Purrloin by the nape by her neck with her teeth and hauled her out from underneath the chair.

((My view against hardcore online players. One breeded Pokemon with the nature they don't want = releasement. Course I demonized it, but hey, that's me.))

OOC: Way to mention my name that isn't my name you dork :P

IC:

Dirk realized that he wanted to give Zephyr his gift, if you could call it that, in private. "Hey Zeph, want to come take a walk outside with me for a few?" Dirk asked her with an easygoing smile that was an attempt to mask his nervousness.

OOC: Hey, I forget some times xD

"It'll be okay." Jared reassured before kneeling down and petting the Purrloin softly.

"Yes, baby," Alice cooed softly, "You'll be safe and sound with us."

The Purrloin recoiled sharply from Jared and hid behind Alice.

"I want a castration hunting party; anyone on board?" Kuroki asked, now knowing that it was a male who did this to the poor Purrloin.

"Oh, sure." Zephyr said, walking outside. Jack chuckled and left his spot to a spot further from the door.

Dirk quickly walked out the door and took Zephyr's hand as he led her away from everyone else. "I needed a break from all of that." He explained in a soft voice. "I also wanted to give you my present away from everyone else." He added vaguely. "Close your eyes for a second, okay?" He asked.

Ellery peeked from one of the windows in the living room, he looking at the situation but trying not to let the others inside know.

"I hope the castration's not for me." Jared gulped nervously.

"Away from the window." Dante and Zeke said flatly, grabbing Ellery and pulled him away.

"No!" Kuroki yelled, sounding disgusted for thinking that. "I meant for the man who scarred poor... uh, name?" She asked, turning to the Purrloin. "None. I don't have one." "...this poor Purrloin!" Kuroki explained.

"Precious," Alice spoke softly, "Her name will be Precious" as she gently stroked the Purrloin's fur.

When Zephyr opened her eyes, she would see that Dirk had gotten down on one knee. In his hand was an open ring box. The ring itself was a masterpiece; the centerpiece was a massive purple diamond that matched her eyes and it was flanked by reddish pink and bluish white diamonds representing fire and ice. "Zeph." Dirk said softly. "Even though I've only known you since we started school..." He looked into her eyes. "I know that I love you with all my heart and that I want to spend the rest of my life with you." He told her earnestly. "I know it's unconventional and unexpected but... will you marry me?"

Zephyr's hands were on her mouth, happy tears on her face when she saw the ring. She felt numb when she heard Dirk speak. "Yes. Yes. Yes!" She said, yelling in that last one and tackled him.

Dirk wasn't expecting to be tackled but he managed to keep hold of the ring box. He was beaming when he slipped the ring on Zephyr's finger from his spot on the ground. "You don't know how lucky I am." He said softly.
