Of course, Damian wasn’t expecting the sudden deluge of paperwork to swamp him and leave him pretty much trapped running the papers himself to the Stellara League; and eventually he’d finally, somehow, managed to get the Lacaille Avian Reserve legally registered as the Flying-type gym.
While the badge design left a little bit to be desired (to him at least, as he had a different design in mind for the thing) everything else was falling into place like clockwork. Now the problem was that since he’d gone so long without actual human contact, he’d very nearly forgotten about the Gala in neighboring Vega.
Hoping that he wasn’t going to be too late to the party, he decided to suit up and eventually decided on a presentable outfit—never mind if it was a little on the black side of things, at least he looked respectable enough to pass for a formally-dressed party-goer!
The trip between cities didn’t take too much time at all, and eventually he’d arrived at the venue; only getting stopped for a few moments at the entrance before finally managing to slip into the event proper. And now…
…what the hell was he going to do now? He looked rather lost, at least for a few moments, before seeing someone going around with drinks. He then grabbed one and then began to wind his way through the guests, minding where the hell he was walking.

This time, she was prepared. Once again, Veronika Lopes found herself at the bustling Gala. Seeing as she was still so new to the whole Trainer thing, she was beginning to wonder how long this celebration would take. After all, she'd already been there the day before, and lost so pitifully against that Trainer, Miyoko. However, that no longer bothered her. Though the rest of their customs were questionable, Veronika could thank her lineage for one good lesson: letting failures get to you was pointless. Now she knew a weakness of her Pokemon, and she insisted on doing something about it. This time, Veronika had Mabel in her arms as she was near the front of the line to get some yummy food for her precious little Minccino. The two of them managed to eat after their loss, but Veronika had to admit that the loss did do quite the blunder to her appetite. Mabel herself didn't like the fact that she fainted, or lost, but she was more than happy to fill her belly, and had quickly forgotten about the loss. Her Trainer, on the other hand, wasn't as optimistic, but they went to sleep not too long after that and then it was a brand new day. Now, they were dealing with sort of problem that wasn't unwelcome: they were now at the front of the line, and Veronika didn't know what to choose to have. "I'm sorry," she apologized as she squinted at the menu and chuckled nervously. "You can hardly see the menu with this line. What would you recommend?" The man raised an eyebrow and looked up at the menu, arching his eyebrows in annoyance. The menu only had two items on it: a hot dog and a hamburger. There were various condiments that one could add on them should they choose to, but it really wasn't that complicated of a list. Veronika hummed at the man's lack of response. "What about you, Mabel?" Veronika asked. "I don't think you've ever tried any of these before. Do you want a hot dog, or a hamburger?"Mabel placed a paw on her chin as she looked between the two. Honestly, she couldn't read what all those symbols said, so she was glad that there were pictures of the food on the menu. The Minccino pointed her furry paw at the hot dog picture and smiled. (That one!)"Alright," Veronika nodded causing the man to perk up a bit as the woman finally made her decision. "I'll get one plain hot dog with a side of ketchup, and... one chili dog." The man silently nodded, and got to work on the order while asking the next customer for their order. It didn't take very long for the Oscar Myers to be done, but the chili definitely took a while. He actually burnt it a couple times, and even though she took a long time in the line in the first place, he apologized profusely for the wait, in his own grouchy way. "What a nice guy." Veronika commented afterward, munching on her chili dog. "And this has to be one of the crappiest chili dogs I've ever had."Mabel, on the other hand, was in love. The Normal Type slipped the dog into her mouth and took a massive bite, which resulted in a glimmer in her wide eyes. The young Minccino almost took another big bite, but then the hot dog was taken away from her. "Hold on, Mabel," Veronika objected. "Don't take too big of bites, or else you might choke!" Mabel reached up at for the hot dog, but Veronika held it away from her. "I'm not letting you choke. Take smaller bites, or else I'll have to cut it up." Mabel gave Veronika the most pitiful face. Glittering eyes, pursed lower lip, tears just barely hanging on to the edge of her eyes, and ears lowered, the Minccino was practically yanking at her heart. Veronika rolled her eyes. "You're gonna eat it, okay? I just don't want you to choke." Mabel finally cooperated with a nod, and Veronika allowed her to take a smaller bit of her hot dog. --- Damian Moreau Minccino: Level 5.

In no time flat, the drink in his hand was gone, downed due to having to walk around so much. Well, now that the first glass of the evening had been taken care of, he then saw another roving waiter before placing the first glass and nabbing a second and heading off in another completely random direction.
It didn’t take him too long to see that there was quite a line for people who wanted to get some food, so he’d made up his mind to take care of his hunger later—his throat was still feeling pretty dry.
He still needed something to cool down, seeing as how…warm it had been outside before he’d arrived here. A few more strides taken, and he was almost on his way out of the dining hall—when he caught sight of another guest, trying to feed their companion Pokémon.
Okay, no, should you try now…? He thought to himself before pushing the logic out of his head and concentrating, blinking a few times before his ‘second sight’ activated, and the sudden riotous assault of color was a little too much for him to take. Blinking rapidly, he felt his eyes water before hastily rubbing the back of his hand against them in an effort to contain himself.
Okay, mistake, mistake, you made a mistake… he thought to himself as he willed himself to slowly turn off the ‘second sight’ at will, before making headway towards where said Trainer he’d spotted earlier was preoccupied with feeding what he thought was a Minccino, who’d gone outright and had pulled out the “puppy eyes” trick he was all too familiar with—especially when Irina did that he knew he was helpless against it.
“You should listen to your owner, you know,” he said quietly in the Minccino’s direction, hoping not to startle the pair.
“Sorry, I couldn’t help but overhear your conversation with your partner…” he added a few moments later.

Veronika twitched as her attention was brought to the stranger who spoke. She smiled with just a slight lack of genuineness and shook her head. "Oh, no," the young woman objected. "It's not a problem. My Minccino was eating quite loudly, weren't you?" Veronika tickled the chin of the little rodent Pokemon, which caused Mable to giggle rather cutely. The young woman brought her attention back to the man who started talking to her. "I don't believe we've met. I'm Veronika Lopes, and this is my friend Mabel."
Mabel nibbled more of the hot dog, though she had hardly heard what the man had said. (Hmn?) Mabel looked up at the man with her large brown eyes and smiled as she took another bite.
"Yeah," Veronika sighed. "She normally eats like a bird, but when she's really hungry she just can't help herself sometimes." Veronika looked back at the young man. "You don't have to worry about her too much. She cares about herself too much to let anything bad happen to herself." It was true. Mabel may have been a little careless at times, but she was also rather self centered. The idea that she would allow herself to choke the moment she found out that was what she was in for was pretty ludicrous.
Still, Mabel wasn't too pleased by the comment. (Hey, the way you said that makes it sound like I'm a self centered brat.) If Veronika understood that, she would probably pinch her cheek and say something along the lines of "But you're my self centered brat." Instead, she looked the Minccino in the eyes, and smiled a bit as she felt the anger from her Starter practically boil inside of the little Pokemon.
Veronika patted Mabel on the head, tenderly. "I'm sorry," Veronika spoke. "I don't usually talk that much. I don't believe you ever introduced yourself? What's your name?"

“Me neither, my name’s Damian. Damian Moreau,” he began, before taking a look at the Minccino, who’d given him ‘the look’ (which he classified to himself as the “puppy-dog eyes stare”; never mind if Minccino looked more to be like some kind of mammal that didn’t resemble a dog) before taking another bite.
“It’s such a pain telling them to slow down whenever they eat. I mean, if I was some kind of telepath I’d be able to at least hear what our Pokémon companions are thinking, but…” he remarked, draining the rest of the contents of the glass in one before pulling out a Moon Ball and popping it to full size. “Maybe my friend can at least try to talk with yours,” he added, sending out his Riolu, who hit the ground on two feet before standing up and looking around him.
Okay, where had Damian gone off to now? Why were there so many people?
(Are you sure you’ll be fine?) he yipped in his friend’s direction, the Emanation ‘mon’s aura radiating strong concern. While his sight was normally closed, he could still tell that the Fighting-type was nervous to all hell, but still trying to hold it together.
“Don’t worry about me, okay?” he began, before looking up at Veronika and introducing his companion. “This is Alexei, my Riolu. Although sometimes, he answers to Alyosha as well,” he added with a bit of a grin, before the small jackal ‘mon looked at the human female and her companion Minccino, before giving a polite bow.
(Are you really that hungry?) the Fighting-type asked the Normal-type a few moments later. (You should be careful, you know…) he added with a bit of concern in his tone.
