Red Hair / Purple Eyes / Pale Skin
The night was young and he had already found his way to the nearest tavern. It was by far from anything fancy but the place wasn't the trashiest you could find in the city. At the very least the dishes were clean and windows were still in tack. The tavern it's self was rather popular amongst most of the people staying in the city because of the Inn just above it. Not to mention that it's prices were somewhat reasonable compared to most places. The poor man could afford it and the wealthy man didn’t feel too cheep. Sen had already downed two drinks, which to him was only the start. He just lifted his hand to the rather large, broad shouldered bartender to get another drink when a young woman dressed in white walked up and stood beside him. The bartender slide his drink to him before leaning onto the counter to listen to what the woman wanted. She ordered some sort of fruity drink which only caused the grizzly bartender to growl a bit as he turned to make it. Sen figured this was his moment to make a move on her. “ Angel’s don’t normally come to a place like this,” he blurted out with a cheesy smile causing the woman to look over at him. She gave the head to toe glance before looking away again. “ You’re not my type.” She commented broadly just as the bartender turned around and handed her the drink. With that she turned and walked away, receiving nothing more but a smirk from Sen. As he turned back around he noticed the Bartender, who was now cleaning a glass, was looking at him with his naturally deep looking frown. “ She was too good looking for you.” he commented in a very deep, monotone voice. Sen found himself smirking at this, “ You’re probably right,“ He commented as he took a sip from his drink before looking back up at the bartender, “ So, are you free tonight?” It was hard to believe, but the bartenders frown actually managed to grow even deeper before he turned away and pretended he other things to clean. Sen simply chuckled to himself knowing full well it had been nothing more than an insult to the man. He was about to take another swig from his drink when heard the tavern’s door opening again. If it hadn’t of been for loud squeaking the door made when it opened, than at least the rain outside would have told them someone else was entering. The smell of the rain seemed to cut through the smell of cigarette smock in the tavern every time the door was opened. Letting his curiosity get the best of him, he turned to see who the new comers were. [/blockquote] |

[/font]    [/center] [/td] [/tr] [/table][/center] There were few places in the world Bianca could be said to outright hate. Her childhood home in Orion City was on the list, but that was mostly because she could only take the cold glares from her disapproving parents so long, upset about everything from her outfit to her orientation to her razor wit (because they were often the victims of her humour). Lexicon was starting to make its way onto the list as well, again, because of the people, or rather the lack of them. Not that Lexicon was lacking for people, but that she didn't really know many people here, and the lack of someone to call up to relieve a little stress was making her twitchy. She wouldn't even be here if not for the potential business deal, which had gone sour very fast and ended with her would-be business partner being kneed between his legs. Thus why she had stress to relieve. So, Bianca did what was completely natural, and that was find a place that didn't have ridiculously-priced drinks and go there to get drunk. Of course, it was raining dogs and cats outside, and she wasn't wearing her best-looking outfit, but who cared? She'd pay for her own drinks and spend the night alone if she had to, as long as she could get a little alcohol in her system and try to forget what a complete failure this trip had been. That was led to her standing in the doorway of the tavern that night, having a small disaggreement with her purple umbrella as she tried to close it and shake the water from it while simultaneously not getting the floor wet and not getting her hair wet. Lucy, her Zangoose, pranced into the establishment four legged, and pinned her ears back and hissed at the looks her presence earned. "Behave," Bianca warned, and the mongoose pokemon did what could only be called pouting. When Bianca got the umbrella under control she finally looked around. Her outfit was not what one would call modest, though she owned much skimpier, a midriff-baring black top, short, bright purple skirt, and black high-heels, topped off with her classic skull-and-crossbones bandana and faux-masterball necklace. Her real pokeballs, three of them, sat clipped to a black belt with a pokeball-shaped silver buckle. She knew she was head-turner, and smirked a little at the patrons as she took in the place; maybe she wouldn't have to pay for her own drinks. Of course, her main thought was getting said drinks, so she quickly turned her attention toward the bar. Hel-lo, what have we here? The bartender was fairly uninteresting, but one of the men there...Well, maybe it was just his two-toned hair grabbing her attention that made him immediately stand out, but Bianca made absolutely no secret of checking him out as she strolled over and casually took a spot right beside him. First thing was first, though, and she tried to grab the attention of the bartender. "Got anything you can recommend for a girl who's had a bad day?" she asked, her voice all sweetness, but without her usual flirty undertone. She'd save that just in case the guy nearby was interested. Lucy, however, had curled herself protectively around her trainer's legs; she knew any more hissing would get her put in her pokeball (which was so unfair), but she could still glare daggers at the man Bianca was standing far too close to. |

Another drop dead gorgeous woman. He wasn’t so lucky today but it didn’t keep his purple pupils from looking her up and down. They would have naturally looked back up again but Sen’s eyes has caught glance of the hissing Zanggoose. It was a protective little fellow. Meant any man trying to get close to her tonight would have to keep an eye out for it. Or some might just be dumb enough to even notice it.
A loud ‘thud’ on the counter caused Sen to fall out of his gaze, turning with a grin to see what had popped him back into reality. Sure enough the plump bartender had conveniently placed the cup he had been cleaning heavily onto the counter. As Sen turned, the bartender raised an eyebrow before picking up another cup to work away at cleaning it. It was clear the large man was wordlessly telling him not to stare. That or he was trying to claim this woman was also out of his league. Sen simply shook his head and picked up his drink to take a swig before peeking back at the door.
It was with his second glance towards her that he noticed her checking him out. He once again smirked, taking another sip of his drink as he watched her walk up towards him and the bar. He made no effort to hide his obvious staring as she stopped and questioned the Bartender. “I heard rumours from the ladies here that the Cherubi Gitta” Sen answered the question before the bartender could even open his mouth, “I’m sure he’d be delighted to whip you one up. One me.” He grinned as he gave a side nod to the bartender making him grunt as he turned to make the drink. “Names Ace, you?” He finally looked away as he introduced himself with a fake name. His eyes falling on nothing impractical as he waited to see if he would be shot down again or actually receive a name.

Bianca looked at the man as he spoke, raising an eyebrow ever-so-slightly and unable to hide her smile at the words 'on me.' Lucy's ears pinned back even further than before and, if looks could kill, the handsome stranger would have keeled over before he was finished his first word.
Ace? That sounded like someone Bianca would name a cat. That was something Bianca had named a cat. Oh well, the guy was buying her a drink, and was pretty good-looking in her opinion, so she had the good sense not to laugh.
Instead, she leaned a little on the bar, lightly twirling one of her violet locks around her finger as her lips curved into a smirk and her bright green eyes sparkled in mischief. "I'm Bianca," she said, a hint of spanish accent creeping into the pronounciation of her name. She could thank her mother for that quirk. "Very nice to meet you. I was starting to wonder if something had robbed everyone in this town of their charm."

Sen gave a side glance towards her as she spoke, letting out a small laugh at her words. “Poverty robbed them of it. I was just lucky enough to not be from around here.” And he gathered from her words she wasn’t from this city either. But she was a fine woman and he was pretty sure he had a chance with her, if he wanted. Sadly, if she did hang with him she was probably going to be disappointed by the end of the day. She wasn’t his type. No woman was. But he loved to play with them. To make them think he was interested and that they were simply stunning. Especially when they were stunning. But his type… well, he had been hoping to find a good looking man walk into the bar. It was why he felt unlucky tonight. None of the men in entire place had caught his eyes and he wasn’t all that picky.
The Bartender placed the cocktail Sen had ordered for Bianca onto the counter in front of her before going back to cleaning the mugs. Once the cup was placed down, Sen reached into his pocket and pulled out some money, placing it in front of the bartender. He then turned his body on the stool he had been sitting on so he could get a full view of her again. “So, you’re not from around here either I take it?” He asked, that goofy grin still plastered on his face.

Bianca chuckled at the man's theory on Lexicon's lack of charm, and the claim he wasn't from here. "Ah, of course. How silly of me not to think of that." Whether 'that' was poverty being the cause or her conversation partner not being from Lexicon, she didn't bother to clarify.
If she knew was going through 'Ace's' head, she simply would have laughed. Bianca knew no disappointment on the playing field of flirting. Rejection was shrugged off like nothing, and while gender never mattered a thing to her, she never expected someone to jump the barrier for her (even though it had happened, hear and there). Her feelings could never be toyed with, because she invested none. She just casted her net and enjoyed whatever she caught for as long as it stayed there; Bianca didn't care at all where this went or if she ever saw this man again.
Of course, she had no idea that Ace was feigning his interest, or that she'd been handed a fake name. Bianca just smiled as she picked up her drink and sipped it. She wanted to laugh at Ace's goofy grin, as he was clearly not the most subtle person she'd ever had make a pass her. That worked for her, though, since Bianca could be pretty unsubtle as well.
His question gave her a rather good opportunity to be such, too. Rather than giving in to her urge to laugh, she tilted her head back to look at the ceiling and let out a dramatic sigh. "No, I'm not. I came here on business." She let out a slightly bitter-sounding laugh and took another sip from her drink, looking back at him. "Now I'm trying to forget about business. Like I said, no charm. Any of them."

Ah so she was a business woman was she? Well, in a sense Sen could claim he was here on business as well and wouldn’t be a complete lie. Everywhere he went was on business. Just some places were more profitable then others. This city didn’t seem all that rich compared to some but it had proven to be worth his time. Luckily for his job he never had to work with people directly. However he was certain he had many, upon many complaints from his customers. Luckily that just meant he was doing his job well… that was unless they happened to figure out who it was they were complaining about.
“I guess you don’t want me asking what you do for work then, eh?” Sen asked with a bit of a laugh before finally looking at her again, “What do you think?” His eyes motioned towards the drink he had bought her, “Any good or should I give up on trying to figure out women’s tastes?” If anything, other then his love for beer and nothing else, he was more a woman then most. His nails were painted a dark shade of purple and rarely allowed them to get chipped. His hair was always done the way he liked it, though never dyed. His clothes… well those varied depending on how much money he currently stole and how badly he had beaten up his old clothes doing his jobs. Today, well they weren’t too dirty.
She defiantly out classed him though and he doubted she even had to try. Women, after all, were the goddess of beauty. Well, most of them at least. Every woman had the potential to be beautiful some just didn’t put the effort into it and let themselves fall apart. He figured that would be him if he ever lived long enough to get to 40 years of age.

Bianca laughed. "Oh, no, you can ask all you want about that. Just not about my day." She took another sip and added, "I'm a pokemon dealer."
She chuckled faintly and looked at the drink she'd been sipping. "Not bad," she admitted, smile on her lips. Truthfully, Bianca did not have terribly refined taste when it came to liquor. Never had. Either it was good enough to keep drinking or it wasn't. "I think you still have a chance of figuring out the mystery of women..." Her flirty undertone crept in, infusing the last few words with implications other than figuring out which drinks she liked.
That was Lucy's breaking point, so to speak. The Zangoose got up on her hind legs and wrapped her forelegs around Bianca's waist like a needy child, then let out a demanding yowl. The violet-haired woman winced a little at the sound, a fairly subdued reaction due to being accustomed to it, and looked down into the red eyes staring at her with a mix of affection and accusation.
Bianca melted a little inside, and she put down her drink before stroking the red-and-white mongoose's ears gently. "Aw, am I not paying enough attention to you, Lucy?" Lucy leaned into the petting and seemed to purr. Bianca giggled.

A pokemon dealer? He had never heard of that before. “And what exactly does a pokemon dealer do?” Sen asked as he thought about it. He somewhat had an idea but he could be way wrong. Sometimes things weren’t exactly what they seemed. He figured it at least wasn’t a black market job though he could very well see it being one. But he didn’t think she would be so open to announce her line of work if it was.
Sen laughed a bit as she complemented his choice of a drink and gave a small nod, lifting his beer a bit. He then turned and took one last swig of his drink, finishing the third bottle. He had understood the ‘flirty’ undertone in her words and for now was going to play along with them. After finishing his drink he set it down and leaned a bit closer to her, “I’m certain I still have a lot to learn…” His own voice echoed the same provocative tone she had used. Unfortunately his efforts seemed wasted as the pokemon clinging to her leg made it clear that she wanted attention. Sen found himself wincing a bit at the sound, lifting a hand to cover only one of his ears.
Where most would have gotten a little upset by the noise the Zangoose made, Sen’s smile didn’t seem to alter even a little. If she spent enough time with him she would quickly learn that nothing ever upset Sen. You could call him names, beat the crap out of him, kill his best friend (Though he didn’t have one) and he wouldn’t lose that smile. Now ask to see him again and he would become a little jumpy but aside from that… well Sen was a wired one. That was a simple fact. “Jealous, is she?” Sen asked, laughing a bit as his attention was taken away for a moment with a light ‘thud’ on the counter in front of him. The bartender had placed another beer down for him. He turned his attention back to Bianca again before looking down at Lucy, “Well, she’s got nothing to be jealous of.” Sure he was letting his gig up a little, but hey, he didn’t want to get bit by the thing.

A glittered entered Bianca's eye at the opportunity to explain her line of work. "The basics? I buy and sell pokemon. I've got some contacts who bring in pokemon from other regions, and I have trainers and breeders in Era who supply me, too. Even catch them myself, sometimes. I mostly deal in rarities. Hard to find, unusual colourations, and preferably fully-evolved."
Lucy's little stunt and Ace's reaction to it, however, made Bianca look back up at him and chuckle. "You exist, and you talked to me. That's generally enough for Lucy." The Zangoose shot him a glare, as if that peice of information should be enough for the unwanted man to disappear. Bianca just patted her head without looking down again. "She won't hurt you or anything. Promise."
Lucy's glare very clearly said otherwise, until the word 'promise.' That was the indication that the Zangoose had to play nice now, whether she wanted to or not. She slowly detached herself from Bianca and sat on the ground, pouting. So not fair; Lucy would be very happy when they were back home and she could go back to running amok.

“Ah, pokemon like my Bronzong.” Sen commented before his Raichu came to mind as well. The little guys fur seemed to shin compared to most other Raichu’s. His Bronzong? Well she was all white, kind of like a ghost. His Deerling had a different colour as well but she was still the first form. Not that he really wanted to give away any of them anyway.
Sen gave a rather large goofy smile as Bianca explained that the Zangoose pretty much would have disliked him if he hit on her or didn’t. He had a feeling that was the case but he did feel a lot better knowing that the pokemon wouldn’t hurt him. He had his quarrels over sleeping spots with wild Ratatta’s and that was enough of struggle to deal with at times. He didn’t want to give fighting a trained Zangoose a try. Maybe his Raichu could be enough to take the frown off Lucy’s face. His pokemon was quite the gentlemen. So, still smiling Sen pulled out a poke ball and with a click of the button a flash of light released the shiny Raichu.
“This is Seth.” Sen introduced him as the Raichu looked up at Sen for a moment a tad confused. “Seth, this is Bianca and Lucy.” Seth turned his head towards the woman and her pokemon before realizing that he was in the company of two rather pretty girls. Quickly the Raichu combed back some of his hair with his hand before giving a bow the two of them. “Chu” He greeted them, pretty much saying, <A pleasure.>
“So I take it people around here tried to haggle you a bit too low.” Sen asked suddenly, returning the conversation back to her job. He could see the people in this city getting a bit too greedy and then getting mad when they were told no. He couldn’t blame though. In a city with so much crime, Sen probably would have become overly protective over his money too after living here for so long. He never stayed in a place longer then a month though. It was one rule Kel had given him about being a thief.

Ty walked into the bar, rather...well, the man was down and out, that was for sure. It was to the point where the thief--if he could even call himself a thief anymore--didn't even know who he was anymore. He had very few friends, his father hated him, and he'd dumped his boy because the man worked for his father. I'm stickin' to girls... But that thought was interrupted when he saw him. Sen...and an empty seat next to him. So, Ty did the natural thing to do. The blonde walked up, and sat next to the girl beside his ex, ordering an ordinary, nothing special to it kind of drink, and hoping Sen didn't notice him. Meanwhile, he eyed the girl he was sitting next to. |

The sight of the Raichu made Bianca's eyes light up, not only because it was an adorable little rodent, but because it was an adorable little shiny rodent. Bianca couldn't help the, "Aww..." that escaped her.
Lucy eyed Ace suspiciously as he activated the pokeball, until the shimmering male took form. The words 'one-eighty' were an apt description as the Zangoose picked herself up and sauntered over, giving Seth a fairly good immitation of her trainer's sultry stare. "Pleasure's all mine," she nothing short of purred.
Bianca looked at Lucy and giggled. She grinned at Ace. "You might regret doing that..."
Then the subject was back on her job, and Bianca rolled her eyes. "Sweetheart, if haggling was all it was, I wouldn't be in here." She then laughed. "Okay, that's a lie. I probably would. But I wouldn't be so surprised by some manners." She sipped her drink. "I was negotiating with a potential supplier. This area's got some nice pokemon. Problem is, the guy didn't understand what exactly was on the table." Bianca took a sip that was more of a gulp and mumbled something along the line of 'sex-hungry jackass.'
That was when Bianca heard the door open. She didn't look; she already had a conversation partner, after all. "Never told me why you were here," Bianca pointed out. She gestured a little at Seth. "Looking for pokemon?" she ventured. After all, he was clearly a trainer, and this smog-covered city certainly had a thriving wild pokemon population. She'd contemplated catching a few, herself, if only to make the trip less of a loss.
When the newcomer took a seat next to her, her eyes flicked over out of her old habit of wanting to know her surroundings. Hel-lo handsome. Well, if this wasn't her lucky day for eye-candy. Bianca's eyes were back on Ace in less than a moment, though; ignoring him for a stranger who hadn't said a word to her was a mixture of rude, cruel, and stupid, and Bianca was none of those.

Had… his heart just stopped? Seth slowly raised both of his tiny paws to his chest to check. Nope, there was still a heartbeat. My goodness was this Lucy pokemon pretty! Now the only issue was… he was a bit shy around pretty girls. <‘You… are very pretty.> Seth stated, his cheeks going a bit pink under his fur.
Sen looked down at the two pokemon for a second as Bianca claimed he might regret letting Seth out. Nah, he was pretty sure his Raichu could handle it. The little fella was able to keep up with Plum somehow so… Yah he’d be fine.
“Sounds like fun. I‘m sure a lady like yourself, was able to knock some sense into him,” Sen teased as she explained why her day with the job didn’t go so well. When he thought about it, he’d probably be rather good at the job. Problem was, he really liked his current job and life style. That is, if you call it a job. The second issue was, well, Sen really didn’t like seeing people twice unless they were people he worked with. And… he had made one exception once but that hadn’t lasted very long.
Well, there it was. The question of what eh did for a living… “No. Currently, unemployed.” Sen replied saying the first thing that came to mind, “I’m a traveler. I usually pick up small jobs in each town I visit and then move on.” Well it wasn’t a complete lie. His jobs just weren’t… legal was all. He turned after explaining this, picking up his drink to take a small swig from it before looking down at the table. He hadn’t even noticed Ty walk in yet which was most likely a very good thing. “I’ve managed to pick up a few pokemon along the way though. Need to find myself a water type someday. Since I’ve been out here in the South I’ve been realizing how much I…” He trailed off for a moment, his eyes looking up at her again and catching the sight of the blond hair behind her.
One thing about Sen that others should always remember was the fact that he was missing all of his negative feelings save for one. Fear. At the sight of the blond hair and the reorganization of the man sitting beside Bianca, fear was the feeling that crossed Sen. At least a little bit. Now what he should have been feeling was depression and a bit of a broken heart but… well those feelings were missing. The fear in him was because, A: He was afraid that Ty would call him by his real name, thus blowing his cover in front of this woman. B: He really didn’t want to be turned down again. “I…” He shook his head a little, “need them.”

Ty slowly sipped his drink, listening to the conversation, waiting to make his move. However, this was a very delicate situation because A. His ex was on the other side of the girl he wanted to chat up, and B. In the event he addressed Sen, Ty wouldn't even know what name to call him. So, Ty casually inserted himself into the conversation. " Plenty o' those out west. Not that I have any, but each to his own, I guess." he said, trying to sound friendly. Now, he'd make his move. Looking at Bianca, he gave a shy grin. " Sorry to interrupt; I just couldn't help but overhear. Name's Ty." Was it really the best idea to blurt out his real name when he had a bounty on his head? Probably not, but....Ty didn't care. Nor did he think of the possibility of anyone recognizing his name and trying to nab him. |

One thing about Lucy was that she gave no thought whatsoever to personal space. That was part of why she tended to grab onto and climb all over Bianca when her jealousy issues raised their ugly head. That also resulted in her leaning quite closely to Seth after his compliment. "Not looking so bad yourself, sweetheart..."
Bianca laughed at the comment on her knocking some sense into her would-be supplier. "You're damn right I did," she said, grinning and pointing a manicured, black-painted nail at him. "I didn't stay in this business this long being easy to push around." That was something of a lie; the beginnings of her business were times Bianca loathed to remember, because 'pushed around' was too light a term for what she'd been unknowingly subjected to for years. Now, though? Messing with Bianca Musara was bad for anyone's health.
Bianca nodded when Ace talked about being a traveler. She knew a few people like that; often her more casual suppliers were trainers who hunted odd jobs around the region and passed along any pokemon they weren't interested in. Like that Faith girl, though technically she had some sort of day job she wouldn't tell Bianca about. That one other girl, too, that quiet one...what was her name again? Oh, right, Rosie. Never told Bianca her last name, if she remembered right.
Bianca was about to give her advice on finding water types when a voice beat her to the punch. She turned to look at the blonde stranger as he introduced himself. Bianca's eyes briefly flicked up and down his body, and she smirked and chuckled as she set her drink aside and leaned on the bar a little. "Nothing to be sorry about, sweetie. I'm Bianca. Nice to meet you."
Ty, admittedly, looked a little young, but if he was in a bar, Bianca figured he was old enough. It wouldn't be the first or last time the pokemon dealer had hit on a younger man, anyway. The thought probably should have made Bianca feel old, being only less than two years away from the dreaded thirty, but she was pretty much incapable of feeling negatively about her sex appeal. "So you've been to the west, huh? Ever take a trip to Paradise?" Oh, the ways that can be taken wrong... "Paradise Island," she clarified after a small pause, not without a hint of amusement.

Seth became extremely stiff when Lucy leaned rather close to him, his cheeks under his fur now turning a bright red. He was absultly twitter patted with the lady pokemon. <C-c-come here often?> He asked, extremely nervously, <I…> He was about to claim that he did, or rather, he came to different bars a lot with Sen, however he was cut off when his cheeks began to spark a little. He was getting a bit too nervous it seemed.
Sen let out a light hearted laugh when Bianca claimed she had defiantly set the business man straight. Good for her. He couldn’t stand pigs who didn’t know when no meant no… unless that pig happened to be himself.
No… no, no, NO! This could not happen! Sen’s light heartedness seemed to drop into the pit of his stomach. His heart had missed a beat when Ty spoke, but it had completely fallen out of his chest when Ty made a move on Bianca and she returned it. Complete and utter fear took over him. He knew he wasn’t dating Ty any longer and he knew, he, himself had been with a few other people since they had broken up but… No… He couldn’t let Ty get with this girl. It would ruin all and any chances he had to convince Ty he had made a mistake. Plus… something inside… it was an odd feeling, almost like a tingling sensation, was telling him it just couldn’t happen.
What could he do about it though? Force Bianca’s attention back onto him? He could turn her around and kiss her. That would do it, right? Or perhaps just plop himself between Ty and Bianca using his own body to separate them. Or he could claim Ty was too young to be in the bar, or even that Ty had some sort of diseases that could spread!
Sen didn’t do any of the listed above. He thought about them all but in the end his hand simply took hold of the beer bottle and with one swift and clearly deliberate move, he had managed to toss most of the bottles contents towards Bianca. “Woops.” Sen claimed as she set the bottle back onto the table, “How clumsy of me.” Clearly a lie but hopefully now she would have to abandon her attempts to woo Ty and instead go to clean up.

" Actually, no; I get around, so I tend to pick up a lot of useful information. That said, never been to Paradise Island, but I've sorta wanted to head out that way. Just haven't gotten around to it yet, ya know?" Sure, Ty was only twenty, but he didn't think much on age; it was just a number. And hey, if he found someone attractive, he'd hit on them. No matter how far 'out of his league' they may be. Ty gave Sen a look when he spilled his beer on 'accident.' Though...the young man didn't think it was an accident at all. In fact, Ty pretty much would have bet his ass Sen did it on purpose. Those usually gentle, yet icy blue eyes narrowed into a glare that could have sliced through Sen's soul--if Ty didn't doubt that the man even had one anymore. When they were together, both had admitted they'd probably have others on the side. And now, separated...he was trying to muscle in. And Ty knew Sen didn't even swing that way. ...So that meant Sen wanted him back. But, well...Ty wasn't so sure that the feeling was mutual. 'What the hell's your problem?' he mouthed, hoping Sen could read lips. |

Lucy backed up at a little at the sparks. However, despite being ruled my her impulses, the Zangoose did have a brain between her ears and realized that the electricity was unintentional. She placed a paw to her mouth and giggled a little. "No, not really. Though...maybe I should..." Yeah, she was still working her charms; Lucy rarely let up, even if nerves were getting the better of whoever she was currently targeting. Lucy rarely let up no matter what was happening, really.
Bianca traced a small pattern on the bar with her nail as she smiled at Ty. She wasn't really trying to be rude to Ace, but she was in the predicament of being sandwiched between two conversation partners and liking to face whoever she was currently speaking to. She imagined she was going to give herself whiplash by the end of the night looking back and forth between the two men.
"Oh, you definitely should go. The west has some beautiful places, and if you're lucky and persistent, the pokemon you can catch at Paradise make it more than worth the price of admission. You should steer clear of Orion, though, sweetie; I do." She twirled a finger next to her head in the universal symbol for 'crazy,' chuckling a little.
That was the point when a bottle's worth of beer splashed across her clothes and exposed skin, and Bianca squeaked as she jerked away from the cold sensation. The sound immediately set Lucy off, who momentarily abandoned her wooing to scramble over to her trainer and glare at the source of her trouble; she knew she shouldn't have taken her eyes off that rotten...
Bianca looked at Ace, then her clothes, a bit wide-eyed. Given the nature of her outfit, she wasn't too upset about the spill, and chuckled good-naturedly once the initial shock wore off. "No harm done, sweetheart. I wear dark colours for a reason." Other than the fact that they make me look hot, of course. "Let me just clean this up. Lucy?" The Zangoose glanced up from her glaring. "I might need your help with this, honey."
Bianca started toward the bathrooms, a sway in her hips. "Be right back, gentlemen." She gave Ty a wink as she walked off, Lucy at her heels.
The Zangoose, herself, shot a flirty look at Seth. "See you soon, handsome."
Now, Bianca was hardly stupid. As she went to work cleaning up, paying close attention to her purple skirt to try to make sure it wouldn't stain, she frowned a little. That was intentional, no doubt about that. If he'd wanted to make that look convincingly accidental, he should at least have dropped the bottle on the floor. The question was why the hell Ace had actually done it; a stupid stunt like that was usually jealousy-fueled, but if he'd wanted to grab her attention, he should have kissed her or something.
Oh well. Hopefully the two men wouldn't try to kill eachother in her absence. Those kinds of displays were less than a turn-on, and she always felt bad for being a catalyst for violence.

The sparks were still chattering away at Seth’s cheeks but they didn’t grow any bigger as he stood there in awe over the other pokemon. He was pretty sure he was now in love, even though the Raichu didn’t really know what love was. <I… hope so…> He cooed back to her. It wasn’t unusual for Seth to fall for the ladies but it was rare for him to actually have one that sounded interested. He was really enjoying the attention, that was for sure.
A soft smile had slipped onto Sen’s face as Bianca turned around, but it was due to her telling him there had been no harm done. Nope, it was because of what Ty had mouthed after she turned around. He wasn’t one hundred percent sure what Ty had said but he got the jiffs of it. Sen hadn’t even noticed the glaring coming for Lucy. “I’m really sorry about that.” Sen lied as Bianca claimed she might need Lucy’s help cleaning up. He tried his best to put on a sympathetic look to at least make it look like he was somewhat sorry for spilling his drink on her.
Both Sen and Seth turned and watched as the two ladies walked off towards the bathroom, waiting until they disappeared behind the door before turning quickly back to Ty. Seth was glaring up at younger man rather angrily, blaming Ty for the reason Lucy had to leave when really it was clearly Sen’s fault. Sen on the other hand was still smiling. He managed to set his elbow on the counter in front of him, placing the side of his head on a fisted hand. “The names Ace.” Sen introduced himself cheerfully before letting his voice drop a smudge of it’s charm, “I was here first. So either you put your sights on me or you leave because she‘s mine.” He wasn’t sure why he was using a slight threat and challenge of sorts to resolve his issue but it had been the first thing to come to his mind. Sure, he had actually had no intentions of sticking with the woman tonight but now that Ty wanted her… well, as he had threatened… Sen was only going to let Ty walk out with one person tonight and that wasn’t going to Bianca. If it meant Sen had to be straight for a night then so be it!
After his little, introduction, Sen let his hand drop to the table, turning to face the bartender again. The look from Sen to the bartender was enough for the bulky man to realize what he wanted and soon enough his drink had been replaced again.
