New Years Eve.

A time of celebration, where one fancied themselves up to go around to the local shrines and ask for the god's blessing for a prosperous new year. Like every other year before that, Serena found her spirits high as she readied for the long night ahead.

Her mother had taken the liberty of setting out her Kimono for her, taking it upon herself to make her already beautiful daughter shine radiantly among those visiting the shrine that evening. The kimono itself was simple -- a white base with pink floral designs, and a yellow obi to tie the outfit together; but donned on Serena, it looked like a masterwork of art.

She had decided to twirl up her hair into an intricate, fancy bun of sorts -- the blonde locks held together by a large, pink, flower ornament. A light coating of makeup was smoothed across her face to accent her natural assets; and by the time eleven rolled around she was all prepped and ready to head to the shrine.

"Make sure to be safe tonight. You have your offering and extra money in your purse, right?"

"Of course, Mama." She smiled at her mother before turning to leave, certain she had everything she needed. After all, she had double checked -- and then triple checked beforehand!

Usually she went to the shrine with a group of friends, but unfortunately they had been unable to make it this year. It didn't particularly bother Serena to be going alone, thought she couldn't deny the lonely twinge in her chest as she rounded on the staircase leading up towards the shrine.

The aroma of fried food, sweets, and anything else being cooked assaulted her senses in the most pleasant way -- reminding her that she had only eaten little that day in an attempt to save room for the vendors. Gaming stalls had been set up along side the food vendors, drawing in customers with cute prizes and timely entertainment.

"I'll visit the shrine first before I enjoy myself."

Sparing a longing glace at the Choco Bananas, she turned and headed towards the shrine.

Tonight was sure to be a good one!

He didn't like being cold. Nope, he didn't like it one. B i t .

For fucks sake! He was in Team Magma for a reason! And it didn't even have anything to do with the s t y l i s h uniform ... which he had tweaked a bit from the original version Maxie had created.

... Shivers ...

What a damned nightmare t h a t had been. Talk about being fashion dead. Yeesh!

Back on the subject! He hated the cold!

SO WHY THE HELL DID MAXIE SEND HIM TO S N O W P O I N T C I T Y ! ?

All the way in fucking Sinnoh no less! Arceus was he seething. Had his hood been down, it would've been beyond obvious to see his displeasure -- and not just because the vein in his temple was protruding out to a worrisome degree. Nope. It was all in the eyes. Those narrowed, set your body on fire and watch in gleeful, sadistic perversion as said body turned to ash kind of eyes.

Yes. That was how obvious his displeasure, at that very moment, was.

So why had he agreed to go out of the region to pick up a package (yes, just for a fucking p a c k a g e !!)? Because Maxie told him to, and then used the worlds, "You're the only one I can trust with this," to make Tabitha feel like a fucking special ass person. Argh!

Just Maxie wait ... when he returned to based, the first thing he'd do was --

"Hey!" It had been entirely his fault, but there was no way that Tabitha was going to admit such a thing. Rounding a corner in the snow covered city, the Magma Admin had roughly bumped into something.

Someone. 

An eye achingly b r i g h t someone.

And that just served to piss him off even more.

Of course! I'll add them to the wanted list and make a post soon!

Everything's lookin' fantastic! Just... please don't fine me, alright?! I don't have a million dollars. I swear. Well, anyway, be sure to follow everyone else and have a good time!
