MAYbe this Catch-All will be Better

WHEN: Anytime in May
WHAT: Exploring, Prom shopping, various adventures
WHO: Katara and YOU
WHY: Because!


[A: ACTION: Prom dress shopping (anywhere)]

[Katara isn’t even used to the ‘normal’ fashion in Genessia, let alone formal wear. She’s still not entirely sure what ‘prom’ itself is, but it sounds fun, and with nothing but work to keep her otherwise truly occupied these days, she’s definitely not going to stay home.

So here she is, standing in the middle of a shop, eyes sparkling but hesitation keeping her feet in place. It’s been a while since she’s dolled up for anything. Help her out?]


[B: ACTION: Water bending (the ocean)]
[As usual, Katara can be found in the late afternoon or early morning down by the shore, pushing and pulling the waves into the air in fantastic shapes and swirls as she hones her water bending talents. The weather is warmer now, to her delight. It’s the perfect way to wind down for the evening or clear her head before she heads to work or around town for errands. She’s sometimes even brave enough to dive into the water herself, though… it’s still a bit chilly…

It’s even humorous, at times, whenever her Oshawott decides to ride one of her tricks and finds itself suddenly above the ocean’s surface. Even funnier when she’s able to surprise her easy going Lapras with the same tricks. Who knew water types could fly?]



[C: ACTION: Fayern, Ivory Tower, Walking home from work]
[Despite working far later than she had expected to today, Katara’s in fairly high spirits as she leaves for the day, if a little tired. She’s learning quite a lot at her new job; not only is she able to heal those she’s assigned to with her water bending, but now she’s properly being taught traditional medicines as well. It’s exciting, but… she’s definitely walking a little slower than usual as she heads home alone, despite the darkness and the clouds threatening to burst.

That in itself is a bit thrilling, though.

She’s got her waterskin at her hip. She’ll be safe enough, right?]


[D: ACTION: Exploring (Nova City/Everglades)]
[While she’s been in Genessia long enough to have settled in fairly well, it’s pretty obvious that she hasn’t explored much beyond Faryren and the main city. When she does finally decide to get out and take a look around, she’s very much out of place.

She can’t help but gape at some of the things she sees around Nova City. There’s no technology in her world that can even compare just yet, and it’s all but blowing her mind. Curious as always, she might be caught staring at one thing or another, more than likely confused. Is the ground moving under her feet??? What are these metal things that keep trying to talk to her? What the heck is a hover-car?

During her time in the Everglades, however, she’s just doing her best to fight off the chill that seems to come with the area. Is it just her, or is it… sort of creepy here? It’s starting to get dark… maybe she should start heading home… ]


[Prom-posal (closed to Zuko)]

[He’s probably used to her coming home late by now, with their strange work schedules, but it might be odd when she disappears without a trace one morning on one of her days off instead of sticking around to make breakfast and tidy up the cabin.

….and she’s gone for hours, and doesn’t seem to want to answer her phone for whatever reason.

When she does finally return in the evening, its with a long garment bag carefully laid over her shoulder, so as not to trail the ground as she carries it in, and a few bags in her hands the shuffle as she opens the door. More shopping? Yep. And food, from the looks of it.]


Hey, Zuko! I brought dinner! [She seems to be in a good mood, if her announcement is anything to go by.]

[Demyx likes looking at the ocean because he hasn't seen one before and it's still a novel concept to him. He enjoys walking on the beach and just enjoying being so close to the water.

He isn't sure that's something he should be able to enjoy but things were getting complicated. He was thinking as he walked along the beach until he saw a young woman playing with the water.

Well. That got interesting fast didn't it?]


Hey.

[He raises his hand in cheerful greeting.]

[There's something about a young woman walking alone that seems wrong because after all, anything could happen to her.

Anything like a spiderclad friend appearing out of nowhere, and dropping down behind her, before trying to sound cheerful.]


Can I walk you home?

[Despite the late hour and relative lack of people going about their business, the commotion of a large and heavy wagon could be heard in the distance. In itself that wasn't too uncommon considering Fayren's marketplace, but upon closer inspection it would be quite the sight.]

[A large freight wagon loaded to the brim with all manner of stone and logs was being pulled along by a single figure. Alexstrasza was pulling the wagon that a team of ox would have trouble budging with one hand as if she were carrying a bag of groceries. When she saw Katara, she slowed her pace slightly and made herself known.]


You're out late tonight. Everything alright, Katara?

[ It is indeed starting to get dark, and that's about the time vampires start coming out. One of the Deputy Guardians, Remilia, is no exception.

Everglade can be dangerous at night, though as per the night law, if a human's under 16, it's illegal to harm them. A good thing the first 'monster' to come across her was one of the nicer ones. ]


Are you certain you want to wander around her on your own? [ The speaker has a French accent, looks like a girl of ten, but has glowing crimson eyes and batlike wings. ]

[ Era has no need of a prom dress. While she had been tempted to just use her wedding dress for the event she would rather save it for when she and Aymeric could finally have their ceremony. Eventually found a lovely blue fabric to sew a new dress for the occasion, and had finished crafting it a few days ago.

That doesn't mean she doesn't enjoy taking a bit of time out of her day every now and then to examine what sort of fashion is popular in Genessia. A warrior she may be, but Era also loves wearing cute and pretty clothes when she has the opportunity. The fact that this prom is coming up so soon means that there are many interesting displays in dress shops as of late, so while Era does not intend to buy anything (would likely be unable to even if she wanted to, given her small size and tail) it doesn't mean she can't gather ideas of what she might craft herself in the future.


It's on her second lap around the shop that she notices the girl who hasn't appeared move at all since Era last glanced her way. She pauses, hesitating before offering a small smile and a quiet: ]


Hello. Are you looking for a prom dress?

[As usual, there was one little lady who was out and about being a responsible big girl, armed with a reusable shopping bag. Today was another errand day.

Even in a bustling and confusing big city like Nova, Anastasia preferred to walk. It just feels "normal" for her. Plus, it's a chance to give her Pokémon a chance to go on walks to. Or, this time, it's more like flopping. She was accompanied by her Primarina. But instead of her actually doing her errands, she was standing in front of a hologram display of a boy band performing. Primarina was singing along with them. One other thing about Anastasia is she didn't dress like the other people in Nova. She wore more fancy-casual outfits seen in Genessia. (#4 specifically)

It was only a few moments before Anastasia's attention came back to her surroundings as someone was trying to pass them. She shimmied her Primarina aside to create more room.]


Oh, excuse us. I'm very sorry.

[It's interesting, watching her move the water around, which is pretty cool. It's one of his favourite tricks after all.]

Yeah, it's nice. [He grins.]

So what you were doing, is it magic?

[He's never met anyone who can use water like he can.]
lordhotman: ([Promise] What?!)

You know which one.

Despite not liking it, Zuko had adjusted to life in this place. He had found himself something of a routine which kept him sufficiently busy. Spending his mornings practicing his firebemdibg forms along with his Pokemon in his version of training. Then taking his shift at the tea house. Then doing his part to take on jobs finding plants and things for people.

Thus he noticed easily when something was off with said routine.

He was used to having Katara around. So when she wasn’t one morning, he frowned at the empty kitchen. This was unlike her. Nonetheless he made himself breakfast and went about his day. Though not without trying to call her a couple times. No answer. Okay. Fine. She was probably busy with her own job. But when he eventually came home, still no Katara. Again he tried to call her. No answer.

Now it was getting weird.

He tried again. And again. .... and again. Nothing.

Growling in frustration Zuko flopped back on the sofa they had in their small living room. The firebender staring at the ceiling as he started to wonder where she could be. Nothing could have happened to her. Right? This place was the opposite of dangerous and Katara could take care of herself anyway. But still...

Zuko just continued to scowl at the ceiling while his feathered Pokémon jumped up on the sofa next to him. “Torchic!” SIGH.

And then not a few moments later, Katara finally arrived. Blinking in surprise, Zuko suddenly sat up, causing his Torchic to jump away again.

“Katara! Where have you been?!”

He sounded annoyed, irritated, indignant, and maybe just a bit worried?

“I’ve been trying to call you all day!”

I believe it's called a moving walk-way. It's... Sort if convenient?

[She smiles at the question.]

She is! She's a Primarina. She's a hybrid Water and Fairy type. Isn't she pretty?

[The Primarina lays a flipper on its cheek in a blushing motion. Then she would properly greet the other with a tiny little tune, a demonstration of the Pokemon's famous opera voice.]

[ With her abilities, she'd be able to hold her own anyway. ]

For humans, not generally unless the human is very old, under 16 or disabled.

It is a social gathering; a dance. Catered more to the young, but the adults have been invited to this one.

[ Era may have been tempted to find a book about it before realizing she didn't really care - as long as there was music and food. Perhaps if Aymeric or any of her friends were here she would feel differently, but there's no use dwelling.

She can empathize with the girl's difficulty however, which means Era isn't about to leave her floundering. While she knew right away what she wanted her dress for prom to look and quickly made it for herself, there were definitely moments in the past where she was overwhelmed with choices. ]


For colours, a light shade of blue would look lovely with your skin and eyes, but warm shades like reds and oranges would make your eyes stand out. I would avoid going with anything too dark...

[ Her cheeks - where they aren't hidden by scales - go pink with the faintest of embarrassed blushes. Because this girl hadn't asked for assistance, and it isn't as though Era is an expert. One of the shopkeepers would likely do a better job... ]

My apologies if I've overstepped. [ She falls silent for a moment, both to consider her words and give her voice a rest. Though Era is quick to offer one last piece of advice after the pause: ] If you're stuck, just think about what you would like to do in the dress. Some styles are not suited certain things.

[Alexstrasza lets go of the bar she'd been using to pull the wagon, rolling her shoulder slightly.]

It's been too long since I've had a proper roost, so I'm going to build a tower with an apartment complex beneath it for anyone that doesn't have a place to stay.

[She grins like an excited child, pointing in the direction of the gateway to Genesia City.]

I'm going to build it over there. The soil is very rich so I should have quite a garden too.

[Ten is flying the Tardis in the evening into Nova City and lands her near Katara and proceeds to step out.]

Hallo. Fine evening isn't it?

[There's nothing strange about a flying Police Box here - given the other flying vehicles in this part]

Can I help you with something? You look - confused. Very, very confused.

[It's not that weird is it? He's a superhero, that's just what super heroes do.]

Great, glad to help!

[He sounds cheerful enough.]

I don't like people to have to walk home alone.

Waterbending huh?

[Demyx pulls water out of the ocean like she did, making a little water ball he can play with.]

Like that? [He grins, and because he's showing off, he opens his free hand and summons the same amount of water, she can see it collecting and matching the other ball in his right hand.]

She’s right that it’s not really his thing, but he still looks dumbfounded that she spent the ENTIRE DAY shopping. He just didn’t understand girls sometimes.

“Intense? How does shopping get intense? It’s shopping.”

Yeah he’s not convinced. But as he gets a whiff of food, his attention turns to whatever she brought.

“What did you get?”
