Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ding-dong.

"Well, that was quick," Wayne said, going to the door to answer it. He opened to a red-suited bellboy, who had a stack of pizzas and what appeared to be a huge barrel -like almost too big to get through the door- with a tap at the bottom. Looks like Salieri's question got answered.

"Oookay, I'm gonna need you to sign here," the bellboy said, handing Wayne a clipboard, "This's a lotta ice cream," he said, grabbing the trolley he'd brought the barrel up on and wheeling it into the hotel room. He then exchanged the stack of pizzas for the clipboard with Wayne's signature on and tipped his hat, "Have a pleasing stay, monsooer."

"Heh," Wayne closed the door as the bellboy left down the hallway, "That's not my name."

Wayne put the pizzas on the counter, undoing the plastic tie with a knife and left them out for people to grab. Then he dragged the barrel into the kitchen where it stayed on the trolley. He knelt down to inspect the barrel and its tap; it was like a beer keg, only filled with ice cream. The trainer grabbed a bowl, turned the tap then filled the bowl up.

He grinned, "Okay! I'm ready for the movie thing!"

Petilil, all the while, tried her best to stay by Wayne's leg; he'd since learned to avoid getting tripped up by her without even thinking about it. She attempted to hide behind him forever but Solosis stopped her by flashing Telekinesis her way and tripping her onto her face.

Hitmonlee, meanwhile, had taken to sitting on the stone balcony wall overlooking the city, his leg dangling over the side and his arms folded across his chest.

Eunmi playfully kicked Henrietta to try and gently knock her off the bed.

"Get your own," she laughed.

D-Vee's tail wagged happily. Ice cream? Aw yeah!

[I love ice cream,] he cheered. When the ice cream had appeared, he was the first one over, fidgeting as he tried to decide what he wanted. Dali followed curiously, and Cottonee - who didn't seem to eat food - hopped over towards Wayne's Petilil.

"Nee!" it said, bouncing around Wayne and towards the grass-type.

"Start it up!" Eunmi cheered as she scrambled off the water bed, having some difficulty as she fumbled to the floor. She didn't seem bothered by it and went over to snag some pizza.

Henrietta was pushed off of the bed with an "eep." She looked over at Eunmi as the other girl moved to grab some pizza and then she looked toward the giant television. They were going to watch a movie? With a "hum" Henrietta sat down herself, Melty soon joining her to sit on her head.

((I designed it with that in mind razz ))

"Huh? Oh, okay then," Wayne blinked and then quickly clamped his hand down on D-Vee's head, rubbing it so that the pokémon's floppy ears would wriggle about.

Wayne grinned then stood up to the side of the counter, reaching over for a pizza slice. The Meat Feast sounded cool but he didn't want to think about what kind of meat it was.

Solosis rolled up to his foot and nudged into it, making the trainer look down with a huh? He watched as the psychic rolled beneath the tap, turned it a little bit with Telekinesis and allowed ice cream to splash onto his membrane. It was awfully weird to see the ice cream soak in and then disappear, but it made strange sense at the same time.

With a shrug, Wayne pushed away and wound up on the couch in front of the big TV, sitting mostly on the arm rest closest to the window and out of people's way. He took a bite of the pizza and munched it, waiting for the DVD to start.

Wayne swallowed quickly and turned around, "Hey, Henry. When I was looking you up before, I saw something."

He put his arm over the back of the couch and continued, "I didn't know your last name was Avalite and it got me thinking like, 'That's so weird'."

The trainer's fingers brushed through his hair and he went, "Cause my... my ex's last name was Avalite," his voice was a little uneasy but not really noticeable. He'd have to get used to referring to Tess in the past tense, it seemed. "That's like a major coincidence; which city are you from?"

"Ah, okay. The girl I'm thinking of came from Lacunosa Town. It'd be so weird if you were related though. She's like, the polar opposite of you."

Outside on the balcony, Hitmonlee stole a glance inside. His eyes lacked warmth; any kind of passing interest you might see in them was probably just your imagination.

"Tess Avalite," Henrietta said. She looked up and over at Wayne. "She's my cousin." And it was true, they were polar opposites. Probably the reason the two didn't hang out during family get togethers.

"W-we're not close," Henrietta said. She shook her head. "We didn't talk, n-not a lot. Wh-when we did it was just 'hello' and 'goodbye' and," she stopped herself. She took a small bite of her pizza, a reason to cut herself off, though she looked at Wayne still, expecting him to say something.
