Ricardo took his hand away slowly, and nodded. A small smile on his lips and warmth in his eyes. “As you wish, Belladonna. A business dinner then. Perhaps I might tempt you with some dancing or even a movie after?”

Nyx finally found her pen. Sighing in relief at she started to fiddle with it. Careful to not click it. Since she knew it was a terribly annoying clutch. 

“Dancing? Movie?” she asked. “Well.....It would be nice to practice since it has been some time since I have danced” she tapped her chin. Accidentally marking herself with her pen. 

“And the last time I can recall going to see a film was with the Lady.... Do you have a preference of movie?”

His lips twitched slightly downwards as Nyx spoke of her relationship with their employer. Ricardo was gaining a new understanding of how unhealthy the business arrangement was.
He put a hand on her arm in a small offer of comfort, and smiled. “Then it’ll be a date, Signora. How does Wednesday sound?”

Nyx flinched at the feeling of their fingers. 

Only to meet his gaze and offer a small smile.  “That.....sounds lovely....” she fidgeted, patting her chest to find her pen. Desperately needing to fidget with something.  

“B-But...Please refrain from calling it at Date. For that is still rather unprofessional of us.” she sweated, although her usual stoic demeanor was faultering.

Gladion didn’t find Nyx disrespectful at all, he was glad someone here actually had spine to stand up to him. Even though he was young, way to young to be Aether President, it seemed employees were wary of him. Except for Branch Chief Wicke.
“I appreciate what you’ve said, Nyx, don’t think I was merciless when relieving people of their duties. No one without power here was dismissed, because as you said they were doing their jobs. Only people I believed could have actually done something were terminated, that is because I believed them to only have the worse intentions for my Mother and her company she built”
The Young President actually held Nyx’s file in his hand as he continued to speak, he read each and every file he could get his hands on “If you think your job is in jeopardy, then you can rest easy knowing it isn’t. Unless you want to leave…” his voice grew steadily softer “You were my mom’s right hand, no one not even Lillie and I probably knew her any better than you did, I want you to retain your position, the right hand of the President, Aether’s Enforcer”

Nyx actually looked.... Surprise by what they said. 

Especially the sudden devotion for his mother. She felt so flustered by the sudden response, she couldn’t help but look away, a look of what could only be determined as Reluctance came over her. 

She considered her words for a moment longer, only to sigh. 

“I..... stood by your mother....The best I could. Even if I found her reasoning....Flawed from time to time.... She was all I had ever known here in Aether....And I just wanted to see her succeed. Regardless of the consequences....”

She adjusted her collar a bit, eyes narrowing. 

“I... feel I should...Apologize but....I have no regrets what I had done for your mother...”

Hellebore shook her head. She wasn’t lost, she’d come to see Nyx and Dulse knew where she was. They had talked about it. Unfortunately, Hellebore didn’t think Nyx could understand UB but she’d try her best to help her understand.
So she chirped and patted the woman’s shoulder, to say that it was alright.

Nyx took note of how they patted her shoulder. Finding herself just relaxing by that. “T-Thank you.” she muttered, bowing her head a bit. 

“So...If you are not lost, what brings you here?” she asked, continuing to humor the poison UB. “I can’t imagine you really came by just to visit me.....Hmm...Well, like any other guest.... Would you like a treat or something?” she asked, going to stand and look for something a Pokemon could snack on.

Nyx flinched at their words. Only to lower her gaze, feeling herself sweat a bit.

“S-Sir...It....Isn’t as though I dislike you....Hmm...How do I put this...” She brought her fist to her chin. Trying to calculate a sentence that wouldn’t be bitter, or even jeopardize her job. Especially since so many of her coworkers were disbanded because of the other. 

“I feel.... as though you broke a lot of trust for many of us here at Aether for your disappearance. And for you to fire so many during your first week had dropped morale.” she stated. “I feel as though, regardless of how you regarded your mother when you left us, we were all just doing as we were told. So many lives depend on Aether, and for you to take such bold actions is disrespectful for all that your mother had built. And that is not just me speaking out of admiration for your mother, but the simple fact that.....Even I fear for my title, and my state of things.” 

Her voice was clear, unwavering. And as diligent as ever.

“If you find what I have said to be....disrespectful....I apologize....”

“Let loose...” She repeated, almost breathlessly, as if the phrase was so foreign to her. A smile seemed to work it’s way over her lips, causing her to look down at her lap. 

“It....Has been some time since I have seen Lady Lusamine....It could be why I feel so....Inadequate....” she shrugged.  “I’m used to having her guidance and orders. She is also a reminder of what I am...So forgive me.” she bowed softly.

But she sat up quickly at the question. Eyes growing wide and her smile disappearing instantly. It took a moment or two before her cheeks started to flare and she looked to the side. Reaching up to cover her face.  

“I....w-would like that very much.”

The Clown anon can't do whatever they were going to do because the glass from the skylight, and the impact of the fall killed them. It's no one's fault... They chose this... And now they're dead.

Hellebore has come to see the lady with the purple hair. She chirps a hello and floats close.

“Oh...Well hello there.” Nyx was surprised to see the creature. Only to instinctively look around for its owner. “Oh dear, Please tell me you are not lost. I’d hate for your master to think I have taken you or anything.” She smiled nervously.

“Sir Gladion....” Nyx regarded the other. Her eyes narrowed, and her stance as cold as ever. Especially since she regarded the young president as a traitor to Madame Lusamine. 

But now since she was face with them, she had no idea as to what it was she had to do with them.

Did she force them to return home? Or did she just let him roam free, considering the Lady had called the boy a traitor.

Regardless, as she could do was hold them under her cold gaze.

“Very well, I’ll make some arrangements after we’ve made some progress in the research.” He is being as careful as he can with all the materials he’s picking up, as he holds a lot of respect for someone who puts this much care into her research. He did understand why she preferred to carry the styrofoam box herself, since it was quite a precious thing. He just intended to transport it down the hall to the UB research lab so at least it wasn’t far of a trip.

“I’ll keep that in mind.” He starts heading back to the UB lab with her with the research in tow. “It’s a pleasure to properly meet you by the way.”

“It has been mine as well, Mr. Everett.” she smiled, opening the door for them and helping them carry the box. 

The smile remained over her lush lips. A rather content expression taking over her features. It was so refreshing to have someone in the foundation seem to care a bout its development as much as she had. 

Most days it seemed as though everyone hated to be there. To have someone near that seemed to be enthusiastic about their research was refreshing. 

Once in the UB labs, she placed the box on the counter. Running her hand over the lid before returning her hands behind her back. 

“Please, do not hesitate to call me. for anything.” She bowed to him then. A usual motion she made towards anyone she respected.

Florie sighed, but it wasn’t out of annoyance or discomfort. Nyx did have a point.
“I guess I should start to trust people more, right?” She closed her eyes for a moment, trying to sort out what she was going to say. She still felt her troubles weren’t worth bringing up, but Nyx seemed to want to hear what was bothering her…
“I- a friend had to spend some time in the hospital and we had some- uhm, issues. I think that was the first time we were really honest to each other. It’s… strange. I’m so used to hiding my feelings I don’t know what to do when I can’t. Telling you… is strange too. And scary. Not because it’s you, but because I… people have hurt me for being myself in the past.”

Nyx regarded Florie as she started, turning her gaze away as she stood tall again. “I suppose trusting others would be an appropriate step.  Even if that other person isn’t me. After all, it’s your comfort I am most concerned about.”

After that she kept her mouth shut. Listening intently as the other spoke. 

It took a moment or two to really process what she was saying. She was being so vague, but she tried to piece the puzzle together the best she could. 

“Honesty....Can be a quite dangerous thing in itself....Even now, even if you were to be honest with me, I feel as though, depending on the situation as well as the line of questioning and reasoning, I may have some difficulty giving you the same respect. After all, even if we work for the same cause, each individual must withhold some sort of secret.... Even as I speak i can think of many secrets of my own I would have to be dishonest with.” she closed her eyes. 

“So I do understand, Miss Florie.... But if it is of any concolation....I am too afraid.” A small soft smile broke her features, her brows even furrowing a bit. “And if I can be so bold as to state this....It must be nice to at least know who you are. To know who you are be able to hold yourself back in such a way.” she shrugged. 

“As for myself. I am the Head Enforcer of the Aether Foundation. As well as a Scientist and researcher. Other than that....I am nothing.”

She looked back down to her then. “So please....only do what makes you comfortable.”
