“Yeah. I drink a lot of coffee for it,” Pierro admitted. He gave him a playfully scolding look for touching his cherry then nodded to him. “I will then. I have a nice spot out on the hills I like to go to for it. Around this time of year there’s poppies too, but those are better enjoyed in the day,” he told him with a chuckle.

He nodded to the bartender, a haunter dressed in an untucked button up with unbuttoned cuffs and a bowtie, before turning back to Pierro and grinning at how his date’s teeny little feet didn’t reach the floor. “Usually only when I’ve got someone t’ go with me. Very, very rare for me to show up here alone. But y’know sometimes it’s fun to cruse around stag.” 

He accepted his beer when the bartender handed it over and took a drink. “I haunt some other places too. A graveyard not too far from here and I like to check out the riverside every now and again if I’m by myself. Heinrich trys to keep us on a tight schedual heh.What about you? You hang around the cafe all the time?” 

(( teammilktea))

Pierro thanked the bartender when his drink was given to him, sipping at it and listening to his date. “Sounds like you have a lot of fun. And I spend a lot of time at the cafe but not all the time. My sleep schedule is a little bit crazy, trying to be there during the day but wanting to be awake at night too, so it’s not too often I get the chance to go out at night to places like this. And sometimes it’s nice to just go out someplace a little ways from town and see the stars. Not as exciting as dance clubs, but it’s a nice way to relax,” he told him, reaching up for a moment to adjust the coif of his bangs as he spoke before smiling at him again.

Donnie nodded with a wide grin. “Classicly classy right? First date’s gotta be classy.” He winked and looked to the bar. “Beer for me and uh….” He looked back at Pierro. “Do you drink?” He pulled out a barstool for his date so he could sit with him and talk a while before they went back to dancing. 

Pierro smiled and took his seat, crossing one foot over the other as they didn’t quite reach the ground from where he was. “Yes, I’d like a cherry cocktail.” He rested his elbow there on the bar, looking at Donnie. “So do you go out dancing a lot? Or only when you’ve got someone to bring with you?”

Donnie chuckled and leaned forward to give his date a playful peck on the lips and a squeeze before spinning him out again. 

"So I was wonderin’ if I gotta get you home early? I could take ya out for a bit to eat mm? Unless you only eat pokepuffs." He wiggled his eyebrows and grinned, only slowing down as the song ended and he drifted them both towards the bar for something to drink. 

He blushed at the peck and gave him a little squeeze in return when he spun back to him as they continued to dance.

"I do eat things other than pokepuffs, yes. But that does sound nice. Dinner and dancing. That'd make it a classic date, wouldn't it?"

"Nah he saw how cute my date was~" Donnie grinned as he lead Pierro out onto the dance floor. A new song was starting, something with a catchy beat. Hovering a little off the floor made it easy to keep up with the swing dance style and Donnie lead wonderfully. He was strong but careful and Pierro barely had to think to move at all as Donnie lead him about the dance floor in a whirl. "You’re real light on your feet~" He teased, pulling the chubby Punkaboo close and leaning in to grin at him. 

Pierro went along with Donnie's lead, happily dancing to the bouncy tune with him. He wasn't the type to go out dancing all the time but he loved the opportunity for fun with someone else, and Donnie definitely made it easy to enjoy it. "Oh, I could say the same for you," he chuckled in return, holding onto him when he was pulled in close and giving his cheek a light pat.

The gengar sulked playfully at Pierro’s teasing. “Well you could brag a little bit.” He elbowed him gentle and prompting before snickering and heading for the door. “It’s okay Pumkin~ Trust me.” He offered his best ‘I am a good pokemon’ smile before leading him through the doors of the house. 

Inside there were ghost pokemon of all kinds dancing together and floating around. As Donnie lead the way to the ball room more than a few waved and said hello to them. Donnie chuckled and glanced at Pierro. “Didja see how jealous my friend Cook looked? Turned green as an Oddish leaf heheh.” 

The ball room was the only part of the house that still looked clean and new. There was a sparkling chandelier but if one were to look closely most of the light was being provided by the many Lanturn and Chandelure that were dancing together up near the fixture. 

Pierro looked out at all the dancers in awe as they passed through, never having been to such a place. He spent so much time with Mika that it was rare for him to go to places where he was surrounded only by other ghost types, and it felt a little refreshing.

"Oh? I didn't see him. Are you sure he's not just jealous of how nice you look all dressed up?" he asked him with a smile, looking up at the chandelier the lights of the fire ghosts were reflecting off of.

Donnie grinned wide at Pierro’s apparent eagerness and nodded. “Yeah that’s the spirit~” He offered with a big grin and a little snicker at his own pun. “You look nice yourself, by the way~ Real sharp.” 

He started to lead the way out of town, arm in arm with the other ghost pokemon. “It’s a little bit of a float but I don’t think you’ll mind once we get there.” He promised as they headed into the forest. The moonlight was bright and the sky was clear, so there was no worry of getting lost. Eventually the pair came upon an abandoned looking manor.

 All of the lights were out except for the ball room. From the windows poured catchy swing style music. Donnie looked over at Pierro and grinned wide. “It’s kinda an exclusive club so don’t go tellin’ everyone.” He teased with a wiggle of his brows. 

"Thank you. I was worried I'd be overdressed since I didn't know where we were going," Pierro told him, drifting along at his side. When they reached the manor he gave Donnie a questioning look until he got his answer.

"Oh, alright. I won't brag too much then about you taking me here," he joked, looking up at the place. "You're sure it's alright for us to be here? It doesn't belong to somebody else? Or is it just made to look like that?"

Donnie had been prompt in calling Pierro that weekend. He’d never been one to wait around or try to play it cool. As soon as the punkaboo accepted he informed him that he’d pick them up as night fall they were going dancing. “I know a swell place for ghost types to cut a rug~” 

The gengar grinned and tapped on the glass of the cafe  as he picked Pierro up. “Heya~ Ready to scoot?”

He had made sure to cleanup, shaving his stubble some and dressing in a sharp looking deep purple evening jacket and spats. “Oh, and this is for you~” He grinned, offering Pierro a single orange and black spotted lilly. 

The pumpkaboo had been somewhat nervous about his date with Donnie, though he was excited since Donnie wasn't like an other pokemon he had dated from what he could see. It would be something new, and Donnie seemed like the type who might offer some excitement. Dancing had been a surprise suggestion but he was more than happy to accept it, cleaning himself up and putting on his nice jacket  for the outing.

When the gengar made his appearance, he looked him over with a little whistle. "You certainly clean up nicely. I wasn't expecting all this," he admitted with a smile before looking to the lily. "Oh! Thank you. Yes, let's go. We can't waste the moonlight not dancing," he told him with a grin, accepting the flower and taking his arm.

"Hey hey it’s not nubby~ It’s a good sized gengar tail." He let himself turn back right side up. "It’s been swell hangin’ around, Svia but I gotta get these poffins and puffs back to the team or Hinney will have a fit." 

"Nubby gengar tail." They watched him flip back over, nodding to what he said. "Yes, be good teammate. See you next time," they told him, cozying into their coat again before digging into their pocket. "Oh, oh. Here," they said, reaching out their hand and pushing the item into his. Afterward they just smiled and went back to their napping position, leaving the little bundle of bones in the gengar's hand.

Poke'Puffs

Heinrich’s tail wiggled some as he glanced over at the left over pokepuffs. “Well…if you’re sure I’m not takin’ your stock…” He helped himself to two more of the mint puffs. Glancing up and down the street he frowned a little. “Doesn’t seem like a good day for publicity mm? I’ll have to pop in and have lunch with you guys. That way you pulled in at least one customer.” 

"That would be nice of you. And make it look like I'm a little better at this than I am," he told him with a grateful smile when he took some of the puffs. "You don't have to though if it would be out of your way. I'm sure Mz. Mika will understand that there aren't many people out and about."

Svia looked at his little tail, reaching back to give it a little grab. “Hm? Yes. Nice perch, velvet covered.” They spun slowly as their tail untwisted then retwisted. “Is easier on tail than rafter. Your bed?”

The grab to his tail made Donnie’s eyes grow wide and he grinned all the wider. “Geeze~ Buy a guy a drink first!” He laughed then tilted his head some watching them twist their tail up and down. “Sounds cozy. I sleep in a nice blanket nest. Made it myself.” 

"Nub tail." They chuckled at the face Donnie had made and then nodded when he told him about his blanket  nest. "Sounds cozy too. Good bed."

Donnie snickered at the jab back and crossed his arms over his chest all snug again. “Just makes my head feel heavy cause I keep wantin’ to sink.” He laughed again. “Though I don’t have your long tail.” He gave his own short spiky tail a wiggle and grinned. “So you have like a special hangin’ perch in your room?” 

Svia looked at his little tail, reaching back to give it a little grab. "Hm? Yes. Nice perch, velvet covered." They spun slowly as their tail untwisted then retwisted. "Is easier on tail than rafter. Your bed?"

Poke'Puffs

Heinrich smiled gently and arched an eyebrow. “Really? You have that regal strength about you though. With a little training in confidence I bet you could boost those scores through the roof.”

He tilted his head slightly to the side. “You know…I don’t think we ever introduced ourselves. My name is Heinrich.” He offered his hand for a handshake.  

"You're so generous with your compliments," he chuckled, shaking his hand in return. "I'm Leopold. It's a pleasure to meet you Heinrich." He sighed sftly in contentment, looking around at the near empty street. "I don't suppose you'd like another pokepuff, would you? We just eat the ones that don't sell at the end of the day anyway and I doubt I can give all these away."

Donnie crossed his arms mimicking a vampire and stuck out his tongue before laughing at his own clowning and grinning at Svia. “Huh? Oh nah. We just like to mess around. Usually I sleep on the ground. You always sleep danglin’ from your tail?” 

Svia gave a little snort at the joke, reaching over to give him a light jab for it. "Yes. Comfortable. Good for back." They stretched some under their coat, rolling their shoulders. "Cannot sleep on ground."

Poke'Puffs

"Oh, right. Right. Those take some skill." Heinrich agreed with a slight wag of his spade tipped tail. "Something I wouldn’t be much good at honestly. What do you compete in? The intelligence or beauty?"

He glanced over into the box of remaining Pokepuffs, wanting another but not wanting to help himself. He licked his lips and looked away casually, not wanting the other pokemon to think he wasn’t listening. 

Leopold was relieved to find Heinrich wasn't just being sarcastic with him, knowing that some people don't consider the paegants to be anything but frivilous games for pampered pokemon. He blushed at his question though, giving another little chuckle.

"Mx. Svia and Ms. Vivienne prefer the beauty portion. I do the intelligence ones sometimes, and toughness with Mz. Mika. But honestly I prefer intelligence. I'm not very good at pretending I'm tough."

Donnie watched them blow their bubble then playfully blew one just a little bigger to tease. “Yeah? I guess you’ve got some time to spare then since it’s a few hours till dinner. How good a nap spot is that?”  He chuckled, setting the box of puffs and poffins on the table before jumping up to Svia’s spot and hanging upside down next to them. “Pretty cozy~” He grinned, looping his ankle around the ceiling beam to keep himself from sinking. 

Svia shimmied off some to one side when he jumped up there with them, wings still holding tight to themselves. "Yes, good spot," they agreed, tightening up their tail again so they weren't hanging down in any particularly tall customers' way.

"Doonnie, do gengar sleep hanging?" they asked curiously, wondering if the position would make him dizzy like it did other pokemon.

Poke'Puffs

Heinrich nodded. “I understand. I used to have a champion trainer but she retired to farm berries. She let me have her gym. For a long time I was picking fights with anyone who came there…But I guess these guys sort of showed me I like having a family.” He chuckled. 

"What kinds of competitions do you guys do? Cooking?" He leaned against the wall of the cafe some, making himself comfortable. "The trainees are cute. They remind me of a lot of my students at the daycare. Only older." 

"That's good. I've never been very good at making friends so I was happy about getting accepted into my team." He blushed some at the question, shaking his head. "No, the contests at the contest center. Pageants." He gave a little shrug.

"Yes, the trainees are very nice. Helpful and eager to learn. And helpful to Mr. Pierro in the 'Cute' pageants."
