Thread: Nebula Academy: Search for the Chosen Ones (Start Up)

Sil snorted. "Vous avez appelé mon copain une 'folle chienne'?" She chuckled out, showing she can understand French.

"Then it's settled." Daphne smiled as she snapped her fingers and a duo of wineglasses appeared in her hands. She quickly poured out two glasses of wine, handing one to Dante and one to Cooper before leading them out onto the terrace in the back of her apartment, her own glass of wine once again in hand. "Now that I think about it... Dante, what are you doing here?" She asked curiously. "Cooper already told me his Lairon was up to no good so that explains that."

"Ellery wanted alone time with Desiree; she wanted to do it on the training field, I quipped my opinion that Succubi/Incubi powers depend on what clan they're from. They wanted me out of there, and so, I rocket jumped away. I then left the impression of my image on your building wall, and here we are." Dante explained, rubbing the rim of his glass.

Daphne's eyes lit up in amusement and she once again struggled not to giggle at Dante's antics. "I should have known better than to expect a normal explanation." She remarked mirthfully.

"Normal's overrated. Abnormal is the new normal. Or is it 'paranormal'?" Dante asked, rubbing his chin in thought.

Cooper couldn't help but to laugh as well "For some reason, doing it in public just doesn't seem like Ellery's style, guess Desiree has a spell over him" Cooper joked, he was surprised Ellery went along with it. He looked at Daphne for a moment before taking a slip of his wine, Lairon seemed to watch all three curiously.

"So, why were you home all by yourself? I would think a beautiful girl like you would be doing something exciting?" Cooper asked, if Lairons could raise their eyebrows, Lairon would be doing it, as Cooper flirted with Daphne in front of Dante, the Pokemon could tell Dante liked her as well.

"Oui je l'ai fait. J'ai touché un nerf en disant cela?" Ciana replied, happy to see that someone understood her.

"Oh, come on! Both of you? Geez, next Camille's gonna walk up in here speaking French." Calvin complained.

Dante raised his eyebrow. 'Got guts, I'll say that.' Dante though, a curl of anger flaring in him.

"She's free to do what she likes to do. If she wants to drink a good wine and read a book, so be it." Dante said, serving himself a glass of wine.

"Non, juste surpris. Hé, Camille! Viens ici!" Sil said, then announced.

Daphne hid an amused smile by taking another sip of her wine, giving her a moment to calculate a response. "That's pretty much what I had in mind for tonight." She said with just a small hint of disappointment. "After all, pretty much everyone else around here was busy as far as I knew."

"Oh really? My schedule is usually open for changes. Even mid-workout." Dante said, moving to face Daphne and sipped from his wine.

"Just keep in mind your usual method of travel won't be good for my hair." Daphne said about Dante's rocket jumping habit.

"I've prepared for that. Tell me, have you seen 'Back to the Future, Part II'?" Dante said, taking out two hover boards.

"Yes, most of us do it the natural way, that won't possibly hurt someone in any way" Cooper said in a calm voice, Lairon glanced between Dante and Cooper before managing to roll his eyes, he trotted over to Daphne and laid by her side, watching the two compete for this woman, who Lairon could tell was enjoying this even more.

"Half of the time, if I am not training, I am also free to hang out. Since Ellery and Desiree became a couple, Jared and Alice, then it becomes a bit difficult to just hang out solo" Cooper commented, he didn't add the fact at one point, and a bit of him still did, had feelings for Desiree, he was trying to move on by finding someone else.

Daphne had almost forgotten what it was like to have multiple guys fawning over her. On one hand there was the rugged handsome Dante, who was also quite clever and quite a bit wild. On the other hand there was Cooper, the pretty boy who she could have wrapped around her pinky finger. Looking at the Lairon for just a moment, she smiled. The steel type knew what was up. Refilling her glass, she finally spoke. "I'll tell you what. You two give me half an hour to change and then we'll go out." She said. "It'll be fun. I promise." She added, batting her eyelashes as she did so.

"Sounds like a plan" Cooper replied drinking more of his wine. He looked upon her for a moment "But I must say, regardless what you wear, you still look stunning and radiant" Cooper replied with another charming smile, Lairon seemed to have made some sort of snort, of course he was no stranger to those lines, constantly Cooper used them on girls, and half of the time they worked, Lairon didn't understand how or why, but it did. It always depended on the woman herself of course.
