Stormchaser
Hikari and Lyuri are standing around
"I can't believe you actually woke up." said Hikari
"Yeah, I was feeling really hungry all of sudden." said Lyuri, rubbing her belly
"That was what woke you up?"
Lyuri just nodded much to Hikari's confusion, she then shrugs it off
"... Anyway, Lyuri, you're planning on doing your wedding this year, right?"
"Uh, yeah. I haven't really done any planning though." she shrugs
"You should! Those things take time to get arranged!" Hikari giggled and then stops to think for a moment "By the way... We're gonna go to Sinnoh, right? Are you gonna visit Darkrai?"
Lyuri's eyes widen for a moment "Oh yeah, I kinda forgot about it."
"Are you gonna invite him for the wedding?" Hikari innocently asked
Lyuri tilted her head slightly "What?"
Hikari tilted her head back "What what?"
"Are you seriously telling me to invite a legendary Pokémon to my wedding."
Hikari shrugged "Why not? He's your friend, you're his friend. You invite friends for weddings. So you should go ahead and invite your legendary friend to your maybe-not-so-legendary wedding."
Lyuri stared at Hikari for about two minutes before facepalming.
"You know what. Why the hell not." she then pulls her holocaster out of her pocket "But first I'm gonna ask somebody who knows about all this weird legendary stuff so I can know if there would be any issue with it."
About five minutes later:
Hey Tagg on a scale of 1 to 10 how out of your mind I must be if I'm considering inviting a legendary Pokémon to my wedding?
Take into consideration that said legendary is Darkrai
And also the fact that it was Hikari who suggested it.
Battle Frontier Beach, Christmas
Salamence: <Okay!>
Battle Frontier Beach, now
-Ever wakes up, along with the others-
Ever: Ugh. My head feels like it was pecked 37 times.
Salamence: <Some mysteries in the world may never be explained. Anyway, now that you're up, can we follow that mysterious sign that got put up while you were out?>
Sign: This way to PEFE!Every!
Amanita: That doesn't scream trap at all.
Brie: If someone was going to kill us, wouldn't they have done it while we were all unconscious?
All: Yeah. Let's finish this hanging plotline once and for all.
-and off they go-
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Dreamscape
The old man grins. "I sincerely wish you all the best of luck, but believe me, there's no way you're getting through this without this lass here splattering you all with blood. It will be a massacre if you aren't careful."
To Joe: "Calm down, young man, if you're not careful, it won't matter. Only the living have a pulse in there."
To Des: "Being quick is not the way. Be quiet, be methodical. Be on tempo."
"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassinDreamscape
Tori: "...Are you saying we're gonna have to actually waltz our way through this masquerade?"
-Fortunately the girl seems to have been far enough back to avoid getting bled on my Skye's flailing-
-At least for now-

Maria:Looks like it...

off the shitsTo Tori: That's exactly what I'm saying young lady. At the very least, you'll fit in perfectly. o3o Just be careful, the Vampire Queen has a... taste for young ladies like yourself.
He grins at the party. "Well, I hope all of you have the best of luck~"

"Masquerade ball, huh..?"
I think I'd find that fun if it weren't for the vampires... and the blood...
She holds up her arm to block the blood, and gets some on her sleeve.

-Ever takes a moment to shoot off a quick text to Mezzo-
Hey Mezzo. Sorry, I've been unconscious for the past few weeks. Hope I didn't miss anything important!
Love, Ever
Ever: Hey, Salamence, if we've been unconscious for weeks, how come none of us need to shave?
Amanita: Yeah! Are you pulling some sort of future prank on us?
Salamence: <I had Breeze electrolyze you.>
Ever: O_o
Amanita: o_O
Brie: O_O
All: o_o
Salamence: <Cleaning humans is a pain, okay?>

-Is trying to figure out who'll be on my main team while trying to figure out if my Centurion Dynamo Core should get moved when I get texted-
From: Tagg
Maybe a 3? I don't see why not, I mean, you could've asked Darkrai to come and get something off a high shelf or something else that's equally inane.

Crochet: -Is poking a random trapped in sleep J-Team member- <I keep on poking them, but they won't wake up.>

Forecaster: <I hope that doesn't mean Tagg and the others will have to stick needles in them again...>

-Hyp was already following the Old Man's advice, if not entirely of his own will-
-Hellbender has blood spattered on her-
Hellbender: <...Can't we get her patched up somehow? Anyone got something they can use for an emergency bandage or something?>
-She tries to wash the blood off herself with a low-pressure Water Gun-

"My good mon, I'm afraid this is a psychic wound, no mere medicine will fix this. This is a manifestation of the poor lass's fears and insecurities. A stripping away of boundaries."

-Jacob's prone form is being poked-
-He giggles and curls away-
"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."-Pent huffs and shrugs-
Ah well, worth a shot at the very least.
-He glances around and smirks-
Well, honestly having to dance our way through the hall sounds decent. Anyone want to partner up with me for the ball?
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.Nightmarescape

Skye: I'm already stuck here, I might as well go in and do something. Even if I have to be...

-Skye sighs-
Skye: ...A distraction.
-She looks around at the group-
Skye: Listen, uh, whoever I splattered... um... if anyone asks, pretend it's perfume. Or something.

Des's sleeping form shifts a little as loud rap music fills the entire gym.

-Ever has sent out a mass text to notify the J-team of his whereabouts for the past few weeks-
All: I think we're here.
-the four have arrived in the middle of a forest-
Amanita: It does look like the kind of place one would choose to stash a kidnappee.
Brie: The giant neon sign saying "Revy Descendants Here" is a plus too.
Ever: Also, that's PEFE!Every.
All: Do you really need to pronounce the character tags? You don't even have the same name any more.
Ever: It just feels weird.
PEFE!Every: Yeah, it's no picnic for me either.
Ever: ...So. Uh. What keeps us from walking away with her?
???: I do!
-a girl steps out of the trees-
???: Or, well, I personally don't. But my team does.
-followed by a Togekiss, Blissey, and Sawsbuck-
Hygieia: <Return patients? How excellent. >
Baccarat: <Did you miss me?~>
Elysium: <Hi again.>
Ever: ...Oh. Great.
All: So you're the one who's been trying to kill us.
???: Test you, really. Rest assured, I'll explain.
But first, I'm sure you're all exhausted. How about a night's sleep? Baccarat?
Baccarat: <Yep!>
-she wags her wings-
-and everyone drops off-
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.The man grins at Skye. "Oh, you hear them too, then. o3o Be careful, and move with the utmost care. If you make the slightest move out of place, your whole party is dead~" And with that he joins the voices in Skye's head.
They're gonna die
It's all your fault.

And then Lyuri basically slams the door open with Hikari right behind her, the former still having her eyes looking at the phone for a moment before looking at Tagg himself.
"Really? There won't be any kind of blasphemous issue with me bringing one of the Poké Gods to my silly wedding?" asked Lyuri
"I wonder if there's a religion devoted to Darkrai out there." Hikari commented offhandedly.

-Ren is asleep on a cot. If Tagg's mon inspect him, they might notice Ren has a message tied to his wrist.-Don't bother trying to wake me up, as I'm unlikely to respond to external stimulation. I'm currently helping with a friend's bad dreams. Will try to be back soon. If confused, please call Professor Tagg for help.
Leave a note if you need me. A pad and pen are in my breast pocket.
-Renard Clavis
Nightmarescape
-Ren sighs.-Ren: Well if it comes to it, I can go with either group. The blood is on my Dark Aura, not my clothes. So in theory I can deactivate my Dark Aura and be part of the "sneaky group". But as my given role is a tank, I can protect the ones in the "distraction group". So to be fair, I'll let you all decide where and how to place me.

Mezzo: Oh!

Hi! You haven't missed that much I think... there was something about a meteor but that got resolved pretty quickly. I'm in Sinnoh right now. I think most of the rest of the team is too. Do you need me to pick you up?
