Pokémon Kalos Chronicles: Superstars of Friendship Edition

Beau was up bright and early before sunrise on the day of his Pokemon adventure with friends. Vaniville Town was a couple towns south of Lumiose City, so it was not an incredibly long trip. The long morning routine of washing up, moisturizing, picking out the right outfit for the beginning of the journey, fixing his hair, and deciding on the right hair accessories took up quite a bit of his morning. Adding dealing with swarms of fans as he left his home, the tall blond intended arrival time was delayed considerably. Luckily, by the time he made it to the previous town, he had lost most of his fans. Due to the narrower pathways, Beau was forced to walk the final trip to Vaniville. He didn't mind much and strolled joyfully down Route 1 with his Ciel, his Espurr, cuddle to his chest and Sebastian the Indeedee dragging his rather large suitcase behind it.

It didn't take much effort for Beau to locate André with the crowd of paparazzi and fans surrounding him as well as the many cameras pointed at him. And the gathered people who didn't look like rabid fans were obviously his friends from back in school. He strolled casually over with a simple: "Bonjour les amis, hello friends!" Beau brightly smiled as he waved with a free hand. His heterochromia eyes contact with everyone the best he could. "It's me, Beau Belrose, but of course you knew that. Ça fait longtemps, it's been a long time!" His boisterous introduction drew in a couple eyes from the people at the edge of the crowd. Their eyes locked onto him.

The flamboyant curly-haired man was exuding friendliness and enthusiasm. The little Espurr contrasted the blond with his blank stare, and the Indeedee standing tall a couple steps behind him gave off an air of serious professionalism. Beau didn't register the whole situation with him being one of the last people to arrive, but glancing at them and the sign seemed to make something click in his brain.

"You're trying to get André's attention?" Beau jumped to that conclusion as he scooped up the sign. He held it high over most of the crowd and shouted loudly. "Salut André, bonne journée! We're over here whenever you're done, d'accord?"

Beau Belrose

Name: Beau Belrose
Gender: Male
Age: 20

Appearance:

Beau is a tall man standing at a little over six feet in height. He is slender with all-around defined muscles, especially in his arms and abdominals. He normally shows them off with his skimpier choice of clothes. There is a light tan to his skin from constant sunlight. He maintains it to keep it an even tan that isn't too dark. It's also very smooth and blemishless due to that same care. A spot of color on him is two tattoos: a small violet heart under his left eye and a pink-purple crescent moon on his left shoulder. Other than those, his skin is bare and healthy.

On top of a very handsome yet boyish face is curly golden blond hair. Beau's hair is more unruly than it appears but with some extra effort and hair product, he manages it enough so it looks only moderately curly. It's a surprisingly neat-looking hairstyle while also looking very fluffy. He always styles it with some very cute hair clips. The curls frame his face along his brows and cheekbones. The strands don't extend far from his head. In the middle of the frame are some well trimmed, thin eyebrows and very unique eyes. Beau's eyes are two different colors: the right one is blue and the left one is purple which draws people's attention to them. His eyes are a little on the wide side adding a smidge of youthfulness to the otherwise adult man's body.

To show off his well-built fit body, Beau wears a lot of sleeveless tops, mid-drifts, and form-fitting shirts. The quality of his clothes are high-quality material to give the man a very posh stylish look. There is a common thing about the clothes he wears which is they are always either purple, pink, or blue with purple being the most commonly worn color and blue being the least. Beau takes very good care of every article of clothing he has, so there is never a stain, wrinkle, or thread out of place making him look very prim. Due to traveling, he's only brought four outfits along with him. The only jewelry he wears is earrings in his left ear. Though it is typically a couple of purple studded ones, he is also known to wear different colors and a couple of dangling earrings.

Personality: Most people view Beau as a charismatic, bubbly, stereotypical dumb blonde. These aren’t exactly incorrect descriptions. He has an aura about him that draws people in and a friendly attitude that keeps people from leaving. Despite how people appear or act toward him, the man is always willing to interact with them. It is hard to tell if he doesn't notice or simply doesn't care when people treat him coldly. More times than not, he is aware of animosity pointed towards him. However, due to his more narcissistic personality, he believes people are just flustered and unaccustomed to being around someone as remarkable as himself. Beau thinks very highly of himself to the point he just feels sad that some people are so very insecure being around him. This makes him try to be the bigger man and be friendly with them in the more. With that behavior of not acknowledging obvious disapproval, he comes off as not very bright. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to his field of interest.

Beau is just a very upbeat and extroverted guy who loves to be around people and the center of attention. Being pretty good at reading people, so he uses that to get more compliments out of the people around him. Despite having oozing confidence he is actually quite the lonely boy. Beau tends to cling to people he really cares about though as he has gotten older, he learned to hold back to not scare people away. A lot of this clinginess gets transferred to his Pokemon so that he doesn't frighten his human friends. When it comes to romantic relationships, Beau is quite the hopeless romantic type. He starts off flirty toward those that interest him but doesn't act more than that. Once he falls in love, he falls quickly and hard for the person. He is very experienced in romance understanding very well how to swoon others, but his clingy tendencies become much harder to hold back. The man also has a very bad attraction to bad boys despite knowing that he shouldn't.

Beau has a bit of an entitled attitude about how people should treat him. He grew up privileged with a lot of money and an attractive face, which caused people to ogle and indulge him. Thus making him believe people should always treat him like that. He is a very well-known and admired model in the Kalos region, so he also thinks everyone should praise his good looks and style no matter where he goes. Being quite arrogant, Beau walks with his head held high and there are few words that other people can throw at him to upset him. Even though Beau knows he could easily win others over with money, he would rather have them favor him as a person. To achieve this, he is willing to compromise. If all else fails, however, it's not unusual for him to use his wealth and status to get on that person's good side.

Beau is interested in traveling around Kalos with friends, but he doesn't particularly care about becoming a Pokemon Trainer. He is slightly more interested in pokemon contests but not by much. Beau is just not a competitive type of person though once he is in, he does the best within his ability.

History: Beau Belrose grew up in a single-parent household and he is the only son of the world-renowned fashion designer, Roselia Belrose. Due to him being the result of a one-night stand, he has never met his father. However, he learned later in life that he was the secret child of the actor Antonie Regnard. He was born in the Lumiose City, Kalos, and lived his entire life there. Despite only having one parent, Beau lived luxuriously with his mother's high pay and his father's compensation money. Since she worked full-time, Beau spent many days alone under the hired help's supervision. So he grew up craving the attention of others when his mother was away. The praises of people around him helped fill the void of loneliness he felt so strongly. Thus it became Beau's everyday goal to do something to get recognition.

Desperate to impress people, Beau started watching people closely to see their reactions to his actions. Thus he drove into activities that got people to turn their heads toward him such as cutely done hairstyles and stylish clothing. Then he would cater to others' feelings which made him quite popular among older people and later with his peers when he enrolled in a private school. His popularity was second to only one, André Bellamy whose parents were actors. Eventually when they finally interacted with one other Beau found a sort of kinship to him. This was similar to several people that he became close with. Being praised and hanging out with people who genuinely liked him felt more fulfilling than people just being nice because his mom was famous. The time with his close-knit friends is still his most cherished memory.

But life goes on and things change. Slowly but surely his group of friends started drifting away from each other and he lost contact with them. That increased his loneliness exponentially and he subconsciously attempted to fill that sadness more than ever. So whenever he was by myself, he would seek companionship. A lover that would stay with him all day and night although these relationships didn't last too long. It was around that time he was scouted to be a model. Though he was still a teen, he had a good fashion sense thanks to his mother, who was more than happy to design clothes for her son, and the thought of more attention made this opportunity he couldn't pass. Even as he became a successful, well-known model within the Kalos region, that feeling of lonesomeness would still creep in. At least he got his adorable little Espurr, Ciel would be with him now when he felt alone.

Then he received a letter from his old friend André, who he knew had become an actor. He thought several times to reach out to him but the man had beaten him to it. The letter talked about going on a Pokemon journey along with several of their mutual friends. While Beau wasn't particularly interested in going on a pokemon journey, the thought of reuniting with his old school friends was just too big of a chance to let slip by. So Beau immediately took a break from his modeling and began preparing for it.

Other: 
- He has a distinct Kalosian (french) accent and will interject the words into his normal speech. He tries to keep it to a minimum to not confuse others.

- Beau likes cute things and sweets and he is not embarrassed to admit it.

- He is quite good at sewing and stitching as he once thought about being a fashion designer like his mother.

- Beau is bisexual and will go out with anyone who is at least mildly good-looking.

- His Pokemon are rarely ever in their Pokeballs.

Pokemon

Nickname: Ciel
Species: Espurr
Gender: Male

Personality: Most get the impression that Ciel is a shy and quiet Pokemon by the way he stares expressionlessly at a random spot and avoids strangers' eyes. This is actually because the Espurr doesn't like interacting with strangers, so he just silently stares off as a way to ignore them. The Espurr barely even wants to interact with other Pokemon, he is quite antisocial. He is very affectionate only towards Beau looking up at him endearingly and nuzzling him to get him to notice him. He gets pretty annoyed when others take his master's attention away from him. Ciel is quite spoiled and demands vocally when he wants something. Despite being quite a prima donna, Beau is an enabler who keeps spoiling him the same.

History: A couple years back, during Beau's eighteen birthday his ex-lover, Derrick, got him Ciel as a gift. He was newly hatched but unwanted by his previous trainer due to him being runt and not very strong. So he entered Beau's life with distrust toward others. Despite his strong defiance and uncaring attitude, the blond genuine fondness and care toward him warmed his frozen heart.

Other: 
- Ciel is noticeably smaller than the average Espurr.
- Sometimes he's wearing a very cute outfit.
- Has the ability Infiltrator.
- He's normally being carried by Beau.

~~~~~~~~~

Sebastian a butler Indeedee also accompanies Beau. He is not officially his Pokemon. He was lent to him mostly to help with day-to-day tasks on his journey. The Pokemon is quite good at attending to him despite his short stature. Some could say he is one heck of a butler Indeedee.

Ya know life be busy... I've been slowly working on it after work when I'm not too tired. Though I should be able to get done this weekend

Pokémon Kalos Chronicles: Superstars of Friendship Reboot Interest Check.

Hello, as Crimson mentioned I’m interested. As I don't really think the age of the new trainers matter. After Scarlet/Violet where there is a child as an elite four member and older adult students in the trainer school, pokemon logic doesn't really make sense anyway. So if a bunch of adults were like: “I decided to do the trainer thing now” it doesn't seem that impossible to me.

Chronicles of the Six: Magic’s Awakening: A Magical Boy RP. Reboot

Gray heard Noah mention it wasn’t the beer’s fault for the queasiness in his stomach but it surely did not help him either. That statement was glossed over when Milo spoke up. Gray’s eyes snapped over him as he continued talking. It was clear his friend wasn’t doing well emotionally. Not that he was expecting anyone to just be okay with their life being thrown into turmoil like this. He was keeping calm to hopefully figure things out. The teen understood that would yield better results than freaking out. Ignoring the discomfort of his budding hangover, Gray trodded over to Milo. He made sure to give Eli, who kindly came over after he puked, a thank you for the comforting pat. Standing close to his friend, he gently patted Milo’s back similarly in an attempt to help him relax.

Gray hadn’t formulated the words he wanted to say before coming over so he thinking. Saying everything would be okay would be an irresponsible statement that he couldn’t guarantee to be true. But more truthful facts of their situations could make his anxiety worse. The pounding in his head was making formulating thoughts challenging. Just when he believed he might have something that would make Milo feel a little better, a voice arose from his shoulder.

“Ugh, so annoying...” Reyenne remarked with an exasperated groan. The black frog shifted more up on her limbs. “Whatever. Guess this is better than you mindlessly acting because someone asked you to. Just hurry up and head straight through that clearing.” She raised her right front leg toward an obvious break in trees. After that, Reyenne leaped from Gray's shoulder onto the leaf of a smaller plant, and then the ground before disappeared in the shadows of the foliage once more. Gray followed her with his eyes until she vanished in the direction the other talking creatures were heading. There was a strange twinge in his chest at her curt parting words, but he just put up as a byproduct of this unusual situation and generally just not feeling well.

————

The group ended up trailing behind their animal guides and eventually entered the city in question. There was clamoring and many strange beings around them that were definitely not human. If it weren’t for the hangover that made his head hurt, throat dry, and made him feel nauseous he might have been more interested. All he could do on their trek to their destination was hold himself together enough to not look like he was about to throw up again.

Once they separated from their guides they entered an inn other settled at a table. Still actively worried about Milo, Gray sat next to him. The aroma of food luckily didn't trigger his nausea but the background chatter of the building didn't give his headache the same luxury. Gray massaged his temple as he glanced around wondering if it would cause a problem to get water. Was the water here even safe for him to drink? Before acting on that, Conner spoke asking how everyone felt about this whole thing. He expressed excitement and honor of being chosen for some important mission. Milo agreed but also conveyed fear of the dangers that might accompany such circumstances. It was clear to Gray that his friend was overwhelmed by the situation forced upon him. He scooted closer to him as he mentioned not feeling great.

“There, there,” he cooed and patted his back like he was soothing a small child rather than his friend who was older than him. Gray needed to say something more to reassure his friend. “Even if we meet our evil counterparts, at least we are together. With the six of us, I’m positive we can make things work out.” Gray did his best to give affirmative words that he could somewhat guarantee him. They would certainly be together and watch each other back since they were close friends.

But then those two opinions remain out in front of the group, one of deep excitement about their predicament and one of conflicting feelings and worries. The gray-eyed boy reviewed their fantasy novel situation in his still throbbing head. Gray, like Conner, was also quite excited to be in this magical world. It felt similar to when he went out with Noah, that feeling of thrill of doing something he typically wouldn’t. Even the fear of injury and death didn’t dampen that exhilaration he felt. This was way better than just waiting until he was separated from everything when he went off to college. But Milo's rare unenthusiastic attitude helped to ground Gray’s thoughts. He shouldn’t be so selfishly elated by this. This was a serious predicament they were thrust into.

“To be honest… I don’t think we have much choice in this matter. I get the feeling those… talking animals are pretty desperate since their world is in danger and all. We are probably their last hope, so it is unlikely they just let us go.” The teen rationalized their situation instead of inserting his personal feelings. Gray decided it was best he stayed more impartial and calm so he could better bridge anyone else's conflicting thoughts. “Learning what we can about Arcanum and observing the situation closely will be our best bet at dealing with this.” After adding his thoughts, Gray silently rested a hand on his abdomen and waited to hear from everyone else.

——————

Reyenne decided to just stick in the shadows rather than share the pond with Chesi. She was willing to risk letting her skin dry out. The blue dolphin was still freaking talking even after the boys left them to talk among themselves. The frog was yet to be used to her excessive babbling and just moaned at her complaints. “Their reaction seems normal to me. They have no reason to care about this world or us.” Reyenne grumbled from her spot shrouded in the darkness. Her crimson red peer out created an illusion that the shadow had suddenly grown eyes and the ability to speak. “Fortunately, just like I have to deal with all this nonsense, they also have to do the same.” The cold reasoning and lack of any genuine care for anyone easily flowed out of her mouth. Her remaining in an isolated dark little spot away from the main group shows how little she enjoyed being near others.

Chronicles of the Six: Magic’s Awakening: A Magical Boy RP. Reboot

After attacking first, everyone else jumped into some kind of action. Gray pretty much froze afterward and watched as Conner, Milo, and David in order confronted the beast. Conner with a blast of water, Milo with cutting wind, and David with a burst of light as he slashed it with a sword. Gray just watched astonished. And couldn't help thinking how very fitting these elements were... Guess that's why they were chosen. Neither Noah nor Eli transformed but they gave their support in different and quite fitting ways especially Noah hurling one of the small creatures toward the bear. Finally, Conner came in on a wave and finished it off with a stab creature through its snout. The aftermath of the water attack doused him and snapped him out of his stupor state. He was far enough away for him to only get wet by the attack, fortunately. Standing there dripping, he listened to the dolphin creature obviously scold a few of them and explain in more detail what was happening. This was information Gray fully comprehended since the haze in his head had pretty much left after that event. His currently crimson eyes locked on to Conner as he got an odd feeling about his aloof expression. Though as he was about to speak up he felt something completely different.

The combination of too many alcoholic beverages in his system, an adrenaline dump, sudden movement, and extreme emotional stress was too much for Gray's stomach to handle. He rested an arm against a nearby tree bent over and violently vomited. After a small coughing fit, he straightened and rubbed the back of his hand across his lips. There was an awful taste in his mouth, his throat burned, and he wasn't feeling all that great but he turned back to them with his pretty standard relaxed body language.

"...... I'm never drinking more than two beers again..." He vows in a calm tone, trying to ignore the throbbing in his head. His eyes turned toward the aquatic mammal. "So basically... we need to defeat this dark entity in this place, Arcanum, that's turning normal calm beings aggressive by awaking their darker tendencies and is consuming this world's magic thus destroying it before we can return home. And we should be careful not to be pulled into the dark side ourselves. ...Honestly, this sounds straight out of a fantasy novel." And Gray would know, he read tons of novels in his free time when he had to stay home and supervise his younger siblings. After Gray summarizes the magical dolphin's spiel on their mission, he massages his aching temples as he tries to soothe his obvious hangover. While doing so he felt a slight pull on his clothes. He glanced down to see Reyenne scaling up his body.

"At least someone willing to listen and understand that fish's long-ass explanation. I think she just loves hearing her own voice." The black frog rudely stated as she continued her climb and eventually settled on Gray's shoulder. She didn't seem to be bothered by the moisture on his clothes. "I will admit you're lack of ability, Rags. You took the initiative but squandered it by doing nothing afterward. If you are going to fight then fight, otherwise just hide so you don't die gawking like a fool." It was her evaluation and advice to the teenager. Other than its haughty tone, it sounded like pretty solid advice.

"Oh... fighting is not something I'm used to, but I don't think there's anything wrong with being a support member. Also, my name is Gray, Ms. Reyenne." Despite the curtness pointed toward him, Gray kept his temperate and polite attitude towards his frog companion who seemed to come off as a cranky jaded adult. He found courteous works best with those sorts of people. Though with the annoyance he heard in her exhale after he finished talking, it currently wasn't effective.

"Whatever. Can we hurry it up and just get going to the city already?" The impatient irritation in Reyenne's voice was easy to pick up on. With that statement, she seemed done communicating with the boy as she just silently laid on his shoulder without another word. Gray held back a sigh as he strained to keep a smile on his face as stared at his animal companion. His eyes eventually turned outward.

"Is everyone okay?" Gray inquired as he let his gaze slowly scroll over everyone before pausing on Conner. There was a look of concern reflected in those bright red eyes.

“Ugh, I dunno. Maybe we should explore this place, and figure out what’s going on. Gray, Dave, you two are future doctors. One of you has some survival skills right?” Connor's inquiry reached Gray's slightly hazy mind as he looked toward the two of them. That made the auburn-haired man turn his focus back towards him. Squinting ferociously, he identified Connor among the group.

"Connor... those two skillsss don't really relate to each other." Gray tried his best to inform his friend. His being a doctor and surviving in the wilderness, didn't truly relate unless they involved needing emergency first aid. "However... that way seems to have easier footing sssince it is a gentle slope and not too many ground obstacles..." He vaguely pointed in a direction on the opposite side of the clearing. This knowledge was gained from spending time with Eli and the many hikes they went on over the years. That statement was immediately overridden by a booming voice.

"Behold Fenghuang, everlasting archmagess!"

After that squawking introduction(?), there was a talking animal approaching- a bird with vivid feathers of red and orange. Its appearance seemed to resemble the descriptions of phoenixes that he read about in fantasy books. He rubbed his eyes again. Looking once more it was still there and now there appeared to be a dolphin and large moth joining the crew as well. The blue creature was going on a tangent and Gray was trying his utmost best to follow the conversation... Something about not being on Earth anymore, them being summoned, and being the most beautiful...? Even though he was sobering up at rapid speed his still mildly intoxicated brain was struggling to process what was being said... he pressed a hand to his temple as a headache began to settle in.

"What obnoxious, conceited, wretches..." A feminine voice reached Gray's ear from below him. "Hey you, in the worn-out rags." This made him look down at a spot of black and red contrasting against the more vibrant forest floor. It was a small frog around the size of his palms. Its bulging red eyes seem to be staring straight up at him.

The boy glanced at his clothing... His clothes were indeed well-used, and the colors faded but in no way these could be counted as rags... There were no stains, tears, and fraying- he had made sure of it. “My clothes aren’t that bad, are they? I take very good care of them.” He retorted back but still kept a gentle smile on his face. Gray definitely noticed the frog roll her eyes at him.

“Let's keep this meet and greet short.” she completely ignored his previous response. “I'm Reyenne. You have my magical affinity, so I’m granting you my powers of shadows. You better use it to keep me safe.” Without waiting for his name or any other input from the eighteen-year-old boy, her webbed foot whipped upwards.

Along with the gesture suddenly shadow exploded upwards and began to enshroud Gray. The shadowy energy was cold yet comforting like a calm summer night. When the darkness dispersed his gray faded clothing was replaced with a black hooded cloak. His hair was also black and his calming gray eyes were dyed a piercing red. Gray stunned just looked at his new outfit... it seemed under the cloak was be garb of a ninja and the new weight in his hands were sickles attached together by chain. "Huh...? An assassin, reaper-style outfit? ...!!! What is that?!?" His thoughts about his new outfit were immediately interrupted by a roar and the appearance of a bear. The starry pattern on its pelt was similar to the skies at night.

"Great... an Ursa Major... Rags, you should hide and wait for those scrubs to take care of it." The female frog suggested as she turned to move away from the creature.

"Absolutely not, these guys are my best friends!" Gray forcefully spoke back as he immediately perished the thought of just hiding away and abandoning his friends. Despite being afraid, a few of them in the group weren't even prepared to battle this beast, yet. His hands clenched the sickles tightly as he tried to think of what he could do.

"Ugh, a sentimental self-righteous one." She groaned but she looked back with what seemed to be a smirk of kind. "Though if you have the power of shadows... I wonder how righteous you truly are." With that snide remark, she bounds into the shadows of the trees, hiding and watching from the darkness.

Gray just pushed the frog's departing words aside as he swiftly positioned himself a fair distance away from everyone. His plan was to attract its attention and lure it away. The weapon in his hands would be the best way to accomplish that goal. With some pretty good accuracy, he landed a strike in the beast's left flank with his weapon. With a swift yank on the chain, the bladed weapon flew back towards him though it landed on the ground rather than returning to him completely.

"Over here, you oversized teddy bear!" He taunted and as it turned to aggressively glare and snarl at him, Gray's fear increased exponentially. Never one for confrontations or violence, being the focus of something so threatening caused his body to quiver. His heart wildly pounded in his chest as he shakily took a couple of steps away from it. Realizing he wouldn't be able to run and lure it away in his current state, he stood his ground. Steeling himself with the thought of keeping his friends safe, Gray put his trembling hands up in a somewhat defensive stance.

In fury, it came rushing toward him faster than Gray could have ever anticipated it would move given its size. As it raised its claw to strike, the teen flinched his hand upward to block and wall shadows rose up between them. The bear’s attack collided and bounced away harmlessly upon impact. The protective wall surprised him even in his frightful situation.

“Did I create that?” His terrified and shocked voice came out afterward.
