Sparring Session
missmurando:
“Yeah just….you slapped me a little too hard back there. If you do that again you’ll end up breaking my back!” She said pointing a finger at him. “Now let’s go eat. I’m actually starving.”
After eating the greasiest burgers that Nexus had to offer, Eddie and Diana returned to the station. “Damn, I’m stuffed. Thanks for keepin’ me company, Captain.”

She staggered as he slapped her on the back and glanced warily at him. So strong! “I-I’ve never been there but I don’t mind going. It’ll be a nice place for me to visit. All right Eddie, lead the way!”
“Sure!” He grabbed his jacket and held the door open for Diana. He cocked his head to the side when he saw the way she was walking. “Hey, are you okay?”
Sparring Session
missmurando:
“I can say the same thing for you.”
Diana took a look at her watch. She had plenty of free time due to the little work they had. She nodded at the sergeant. “I sure do. So where do you want to eat?” Diana grabbed her coat from the bench. “I’ll go wherever you choose.”
“You sure?” He laughed loudly and slapped her on the back. “I don’t exactly pick the...

“Your brother hm? That’s very sweet and thoughtful of you Eddie.” She smiled warmly at him and glanced down at her water bottle. “I never did have any siblings but I do know that feeling. Of wanting to protect the innocent. We’d risk our very own lives for them!”
Diana then looked at the ceiling, remembering her own reasons for joining. “All the terrible people living here need to...

missmurando:
Wincing as she grabbed Eddie’s hand, Diana nodded at him and smiled. “Thanks. And you’re great too! Nexus surely has a good man on their hands.” She dusted herself off and looked around the room and spotted the small fridge that they’ve always kept.
“Say tell me something Eddie,” she asked as she retrieved some water bottles from the small fridge in the room. “now that we’ve met...

missmurando:
“I’d call it quits but…” As soon as she saw him tighten his fists, Diana hit him below his jaw, and then summoning her strength, she quickly threw him on the ground, pining his arms to the ground. She returned his grin. “Now I call quits.”
“Aw, shit!” He had the wind knocked out of him when he hit the ground. “Cheap shot, captain!”
He laughed for a moment...
Sparring Session
missmurando:
Her eyes widened as she saw the oncoming attack and as she tried dodging the attack, she felt the sudden pain on her face. Diana wasn’t able to fully avoid the punch and she let out a gasp as she stumbled once again. This time though, the captain didn’t hold her ground and she fell on her knees, wiping the sweat off her forehead. She was sure she felt something else too.

missmurando:
Diana winced in pain as soon as she felt his punch against her side. She stumbled back and held her balance, glancing back at Edison. She gave him a small smirk. “Looks like you did. But you’re going to have to do better than that!”
Diana ran up to him again, and decided to throw another punch at him…until the last minute, where she suddenly crouched to the floor and gave him a low...

missmurando:
“That’s right.” And as soon as she said that, she was off. The Stoutland carefully eyed him, to see if Eddie had any openings. For a guy his size, he would surely be hard to take down. But there is always that saying….
Diana ran up to him and closed her hand into a fist before it collided against his left arm. She grunted as her fist made an impact. He’s tough! But the bigger they...

Sergeant? Oh so he was from the force! Perfect! Diana held out her hand and shook his. “And I’m Captain Cozak. Funny that we’ve barely met till now.” She just assumed that everyone else was busy, probably with missions and the sort. Diana looked up at him and gave him a smile. Tall as he was, she wasn’t intimidated by him. In fact, he gave off the ‘big brotherly’ type of vibe. Still...
Sparring Session
missmurando:
The sudden voice startled her and Diana missed the punching bag, hitting…well the air. She straightened herself up and turned around to see who had interrupted her. Before her was a large, rather strong looking man who seemed slightly older than her. He didn’t seem suspicious, as she was sure she saw him around but never got a chance to introduce herself.
Diana crossed her arms....
Sparring Session
missmurando:
How long has it been since she’s talked to anyone? A week, a month? Diana didn’t keep track. There wasn’t any distractions to interrupt her from doing work and that’s all that mattered. Though admittedly, she missed the noise from all her co-workers. Today was just like any other day, quiet and well, pretty boring even for her. So deciding to take a break from her paperwork, Diana...

“Of course,” Talise smiled, and then got up to pick up their plates. She dumped the plates in the sink and then after washing her hands put on her oven mitts and pulled the pie out of the oven. “But before that, let’s indulge, shall we?”
With all the seriousness out of the way, Eddie was his usual silly self. He licked his lips. “Oh man, you remembered my weakness.....
watergrazer:
“No, of course we can’t,” Talise replied playfully, teasingly kicking his leg from under the table. Eddie was the only person she could act this different around, and she appreciated him. “I’m kidding, obviously. What is it?”
He grinned and nudged her foot away. “Ha ha, good one, Tal.” He rolled his eyes. It really was like old times. “You gotta let me train...

After a few moments, she took a careful bite into her sandwich, and then delicately wiped her mouth clean. “Well, it’s just the same as how I worry about you. And I always will, no matter how strong you are.” She smiled softly. “I hope that’s what you mean when you say you’re worried about me.”
”Yeah, that’s pretty much dead on.” He nodded and took a big bite...
watergrazer:
She sat quietly, pursing her lips and listening to his every word. She enclasped her hands together and set them down on the table.
“I want to do something… greater than what I’m doing,” she said slowly after a moment of hesitation. “I want to feel like I’m actually helping other people. D-dancing… it’s fun and all, but… I could be doing so much more.” She raised an eyebrow. “Oh,...
watergrazer:
“Oh goodness, you sound like my father,” Talise said, hiding her face in her hand. She set down her sandwich, stopped chewing, and sighed, putting her hand down. She lightly tapped her fingers on the table.
“…How would you feel if I… worked for the police force?”
He ran his fingers through his hair and sighed. “I dunno.. Well, to be honest,” he hesitated for a...
watergrazer:
Talise’s eyes brightened and she giggled lightly to herself. Having a best friend who specialized in fire often came handy! “Thanks! I hope you like it!”
She bit her lip and hesitantly looked away for a moment. “Ahaha, I am! But, er… I-I asked… for a leave. For only a little while. Um, I’m considering…” She tucked hair nervously behind her ear and took a bite of her sandwich. She...

“Ah, well, at least you’re taking a break! Sometimes I worry that you’re going to overexert yourself,” Talise said, smiling sheepishly. “You have to be careful, alright?” She peered over the oven and gasped when a tiny side of her sandwich began glowing with fire. She immediately recoilied and shot a short blast of water from her palms, unintentionally soaking half of her sandwich....
watergrazer:
She giggled once his big arms embraced her. She let go and looked him over, grinning. “You look so dressed up! Here I am in this apron,” she sighed, pouting as she extended her arms and looked down at herself. “Nowhere near as fancy.”
She guided him towards the kitchen and put on her oven mitts to quickly open the oven again. “I’m really glad you were able to come today! Did you...
watergrazer:
Talise was humming peacefully as she walked around in her small but tidy apartment kitchen. She opened the oven to quickly check up on the cherry pie and coughed as warm steam blew into her face. She contentedly grilled the two sandwiches she was making over the stove, her stomach grumbling at the sight of them. The cheesy aroma grew in the air and filled up the apartment. She was...

Never thought of it as deep, [she shrugs] thank you I guess. Anyway life’s nice, too, but not even exciting. I wish I had anything to do. Heh, isn’t boredom a real pain?
Oh man, I know! [He rubbed the back of his neck.] I been lookin’ for something to do. Hasn’t been much criminals to lock up lately.

Right. Yep, you know, I like your attitude. Which is good, because I was just looking for something interesting.
[Rizzo shook his hand, her grin still there on her face.]
How’s life?
Geez, that’s a pretty deep question. But life is pretty good. Work’s good, got great friends, and family. Gettin’ a little bored though, ya know?
How about you?
So many of you, uh.
zubatshitinsane:
Common name, yours. Mine’s Rizzo.
[She grinned, after a bit of a squeaky laugh. Not that there was much to laugh about; but she felt like it. All she wanted, anyway, was to find out how much amusing the person in front of her exactly was.]
Say, do you think it’s nice meeting you?
Common, huh? I don’t know many Eddies, but if you say so! [He held out his hand to shake...

It would be nice to at least introduce ourselves. What brings you here?

“Hmm? Oh!” Rubi paused and rubbed the back of her head sheepishly. “I don’t mind— don’t worry! Things have just been pretty busy at my house lately, and I wanted some time to think is all. Why— there’s nothing wrong with being out late, right?”
She pursed her lips and wrung her hands. “I mean, there hasn’t been too much criminal activity lately…”

When his grip loosened and her hand was released, Rubi dusted her hands off before looking back at him with a polite smile on her face. “It’s nice to meet you, Edison— er, Eddie. My name’s Rubi.”
”Nice ta meet you too, Rubi!” He tilted his head slightly, and looked her over, trying to figure out her story. “If you don’t mind me asking, what’re ya...

Rubi blinked, not even noticing the approaching stranger until the two collided into one another. It was with enough force to send both of them reeling back, but she managed to pick herself back up rather quickly. As soon as she hopped back up, Rubi offered him a smile and her hand to help him up.
“Ah, don’t apologize! I should have been watching where I was going!”
He smiled and...

Christmas had been a busy day for Rubi. Despite the fact that the semester was over, she was still kept occupied with her job at the diner and taking care of Damian back at home. However, she’d been fortunate enough to get the day off of work and Damian was surprisingly compliant about his bedtime, but that was likely because he was so tuckered out from opening up presents.

As soon as Edison can blink, she jumped on her back. “Giddy up then!” She hugged him from behind.
He held on to her tightly and galloped down the hill. “So, where will I be dropping you off then?”

She looked up at the sky and how the stars were brighter than before. It was dark, since some of the lights from the city were turning off. “You’re right! I have to get back to Amelia, she’s worried about me I bet…”

She went out and ruffled his hair myself. “I’m just joking with you too!” She gave off a laugh and hugged him around his neck. “Don’t worry so much… You’re great.”
He relaxed into the hug. He was completely comfortable, and completely happy. He gently placed his hand on her hair and held her closer. “You’re gre-” He stopped himself and pulled away from her...

She sniffed because of her nose and she turned away from him. “Until now I didn’t call you an idiot the whole day. You didn’t act like one… You were a gentleman okay?”

She puffed out her cheeks and she glared at him. “I-I mean it! What? You want to be called an idiot? Fine!” She slammed her heels together and yelled at him. “Idiot Idiot Idiot Idiot!!!” Her yells echoed out from the hill, and her nose and cheeks were burning with heat.
He laughed harder and hugged her tighter. “Hey, hey calm down. I didn’t mean to upset...

She blushed when she went into full contact with his body. She got a littler closer and wrapped her arms around his huge, muscled self. “I… It’s still the holidays. There’s the New Year, so if you want me to be. I can.”

Wait no, she didn’t want to answer that question. “If you were clever, you wouldn’t have needed to use that coupon.” She brought his hand up to her face, only the excuse to keep herself warm. “Well… thank you for today. Thank you for everything.”

As soon as she heard her feet cracked on the soft snow, she opened her eyes. She didn’t even make a sound, only her lips parted at the sight. It was gorgeous, the whole city of Nexus was illuminated. It shined like a star in the middle of everything. She also saw the far off cities of Miyazaki and Kagoshima. They both complimented the central city beautifully with their...

Cin immediately tensed when the other slapped him on the back, stiffly glaring at the Entei with a low growl.
“Don’t touch me,” he muttered, fixing his jacket. Arceus, dealing with him was almost like dealing with a Magikarp. He was too oblivious. Why couldn’t he tell that Cin regarded him with animosity?

She could barely close her arms around his shoulders, so she went for his neck. She wrapped her legs around his waist and she squeezed her eyes shut and pressed her face to his collarbone. “Alright see? I’m not looking at all.”

Hm? What else could he want? She took off her skates and put on her boots. It was nice to be on dry land again. It started to snow again so she threw on her hood, her hair puffing out on each side of her face. “What is it…?”
