Just like the rhythmic beating of a dragon boat's drummer. The heels of hxr boots beat down against the brick ground as shx made hxr way to Chinatown, following closely behind hxr Vie. Sweat slicked along hxr neck as shx ran - or skipped, if that is a better word for it. Hxr hair - long and wavy, cascading down hxr back - bobbed along with hxr footsteps, rushed and heavy. Shx was not one to hurry in hxr day-to-day life, but when duty calls - and shx means calls, not whatever narcissistic self-serving idea of duty Carnelian had - shx would do anything for it. Hxr superior leader was not hxr Vie, nor was it hxr mission leader, nor the president of the Lightchasers, but rather duty itself. Shx'd treat the commands of duty as the ultimate rule.

Sprinting through a thick and crowded marketplace, buyers and sellers alike clamoring in the opposite direction in a frenzied panic, shx found hxrself nearing Chinatown. The deafening screams grew louder in the direction shx faced, and the stampede grew denser. The mass of civilians dispersed now - leaving only a barren walkway cluttered with discarded fruits and vegetables - some still ripe, others now rotting, valuable trinkets scattered amongst them, sparkling as they caught the dazzling sunlight. The scent was overwhelming - sweetness, then decay. Rusted metals, then the scent of polish.

Feeling hxr senses tingle, shx froze. Halting violently to a stop, dragging Carnelian back. Hxr eyes flicked across the bazaars placed haphazardly by the sides, center, and some even having several floors to them - when shx spotted a trail of smoke. God forbid anyone else gets injured. Shx thought almost instantly, running over in the direction. No longer was Carnelian leading the way - shx was clearly the escort now. As much as shx loved Carnelian, shx couldn't bear having that pompous egomaniac lead the way - surely he'd get lost or forget his purpose, and shx'd catch him browsing a jeweler's wares.

Dashing forth into another alley, shx found that shx'd finally arrived at Chinatown. "Carnelian," shx began, eyeing the wreckage, "don't stray too far." shx finished. Without Carnelian saying anything yet - shx was already exasperated. The look on his face was enough to faze hxr, it seemed. Throwing hxr arm to the side, shx shifted it into a brilliantly carved bow. The sort you'd see played by a maestro like Paganini or Tchaikovsky. Hxr dress billowed dramatically in the wind; its elegant sleeves flapping about. Shx shot him a glance.

"Well, maestro? Are you ready to play?" shx inquired slyly, shifting hxr arm back into its original form. Shx glanced around to ensure no one spotted hxr - shx never wanted to be spotted by anyone shx knew from the past. Those people all wore masks, parading around with a carefully crafted facade. Shx, too, had to join such a masquerade.

Many years back, when shx was merely a child. But that isn't what matters right now, isn't it? Hxr childhood is the least of hxr concerns. Hxr focus right now was hxr paramount duty. The air around hxr was smoky and polluted with dust - shx could barely breathe through it. All shx had to do was assist in neutralizing the current threat. While to hxr, it didn't sound that hard, shx has to rely on whatever excuse for a leader hxr Vie was. Shx'd say he was incredibly incompetent, pathetic, and indolent, he was all shx had to rely on. And for that, he has hxr utmost loyalty. No matter how obnoxious he could get, shx'd stay by his side.

Looking to him for a command or confirmation, shx dusted hxrself off and smoothed down hxr hair. Shx combed through hxr locks as a means of calming hxrself, shx scanned the area to think of a plan. A bit farther from hxr, RuoDie was yelling commands. Obediently, shx nodded.

Chase. That was hxr duty at the moment. And shx'd treat it seriously. No matter how much Carnelian dare bother hxr, shx'd make sure to fulfill what was entrusted upon hxr. Sprinting off in the direction shx'd been following, shx glimpsed briefly behind hxr to check on Carnelian. Surely he can't be struggling now, can he? Exhaling, shx slowed hxr pace to await hxr Vie, grabbing him by the hand once he catched up, yanking him along with hxr. He can't get sidetracked now - shx wouldn't dare allow it. Any sort of dilly-dallying wouldn't be tolerated by hxr right now. Perhaps it'd be fine if shx was still "reading", flicking through the pages of an old novel, but surely not during a Code 9.

"This is serious, Etoile," shx stated firmly, "so you better play this well."

With one last burst of energy, shx centered all hxr abilities into hxr core. Shx felt this violent, bright energy flashing within hxr, threatening to tear hxr apart. Shx felt hxr hands grow solid, morphing and melting as if being poured into a mold, as if shx was being reforged in a fiery furnace.

Gasping as shx swirled into hxrself, skin growing paler, florals swallowing hxr whole, now dotted across her complexion, erupting from where hxr eyes once were, shx flared and shrunk, soft skin transfiguring into wood, shape going from humanoid to instrument. Hxr arm swelled up as if channeling energy into itself, becoming thinner, smaller, into a bow. Florals carved intricately into it - or perhaps they weren't carved - they seemed to swell out, in fact. Hxr dress merged into hxr body, hips shifting into the elegant dip and curve of a violin.

Now in the form of a white violin, floral patterns laced around the bout and the waist. Shx landed gracefully in Carnelian's palms, bow dropping atop hxr.

Now, although silent, it seemed as if shx was commanding Carnelian. Beckoning him, almost.

Play.

It was just some book. Some boring fiction, probably printed ages ago.

The winds whistled against hxr feet, dancing around as they breezed on past. Astra Inferi's fingers clasped around a worn novel, caressing the crisp pages, aged over time. Shx was enjoying reading. Or... well, feeling the texture of the pages. To hxr, there was no difference. Another hand, unoccupied, reached out to smooth down her ribbons which were fluttering about in the wind. God forbid her ribbons fall loose. They were hxr favorite accessory! And the only thing from home that shx brought along with hxr.

Beside hxr was a large pest. An invasive species, unfortunately a huge problem in the area... it seemed any sort of pest control failed to eradicate this kind. It was hxr Vie, Carnelian. The most obnoxious man on the planet. The most irritating man in all the lands. Shx rolled hxr eyes irritatedly as he continued to bother hxr, peeping about hxr book, trying to see what shx was reading. Stop bugging me, shx wanted to say. Shx inhaled and exhaled.

The man in front of hxr was just a big baby, after all... to hxr, he was a demon, patron scoundrel of being annoying. He didn't stop peeping over hxr to read his book. Shx groaned, leaning hxr head back in exasperation.

C'mon, Carnelian, aren't you older than me? Some kind of father figure he is. Shx thought, biting her tongue to keep the words in hxr throat.

"Of course I'm reading this," shx responded... and no, shx was not reading it. Shx was just feeling the paper beneath her fingertips. Shx quite enjoyed textures. All books are tactile galleries.

Another question, another reason to tear his face off. Not like shx could - shx didn't have the power to. He'd probably still haunt hxr when he was dead. He'd pop out of closets just to nag at her. Smoothing down hxr hair and ribbons, shx shot him a glare, as if daring him to go on, practically threatening violence if he dared speak again.

...He still did, anyway.

"Yes, I enjoy this 'stuff'." The 'stuff' in question was an old novel. Some grimy book about espionage and oil. Something about Greece? Shx didn't even know the plot - shx simply flips through pages to enjoy the textures. Books were nothing more than a tactile gallery to hxr. Shx looked up, gaze deadpan, "F*ck off, Carnelian." Shx murmured, pressing hxr fingers to his forehead and nudging him back. Shx took notice of his expression. "Is that a code 9?" Hxr lips, once pressed in a brooding line, curled the slightest bit up.

Finally! Something to do. Something to do that Carnelian can't exactly nag hxr about.

Shx looked up, hxr gaze obviously annoyed, shx smoothed down hxr hair yet again. Something shx did whenever she was displeased. Seems like Carnelian didn't get the message at all, though. Shx sighed, itching to shut him up. Be it through violence or through stunning him with any one of her abilities. Shx was not well versed with hxr powers, but what little shx knew was enough to shut him up.

Anything, absolutely anything, even if it was dealing with an Ame on a rampage, would be better to deal with than this... creature. If he gets on hxr nerves once more, shx swears to hxrself his face'll be gone. Oh, if only Astra's father was there! Shx'd whine to him and have him beheaded.

Not really. Maybe just have his reputation tarnished in the papers. Either way, shx imagined all the things shx could do if only shx was still connected to hxr wealthy lineage.

Although the sound of the alert did pierce hxr ears, shx grinned to hxrself. Not like I'm not worse, she giggled as she thought. Tightening hxr white ribbons on each side of hxr head, shx took his hand and followed behind him, holding back a pout. How ironic, how he played the responsible one! Shx was sure he'd leave his post to laze around on a sunbed to be fanned with leaves and to be fed with grapes the moment he had the opportunity.

"Whatever it takes to keep you quiet," shx muttered under hxr breath, still irritated. Hxr boots pattered against the ground as shx followed him out of the mucky alleyway, rubbing the heel of her boot against the ground to get rid of any gunk. Shx tapped hxr boot thrice until shx felt a small rock fall out. Shx grimaced, then ran after hxr Vie once again.

Aegir stood to the side, spectating the interaction. He made no move to interrupt—he was bored, and perhaps some entertainment would do good to soothe his nerves. He already forgot how he'd got there, after all, and thus assumed this was the best thing to do.

His Jolteon nuzzled against Aegir's thigh, trying to coax a pat on his head, threatening to zap him if he didn't. Aegir, coerced easily by his pokemon, rubbed Sparky's head affectionately. Sparky's coat was soft and smooth despite rolling around in the dirt. Aegir couldn't begin to guess Sparky's... fur care routine.

"Good luck," he said, to what could be assumed as no one in particular. He was looking at Sorion, though. So it certainly seemed like he had a bias. "Don't get too injured."

He stepped back to make space for them, if ever they were to battle. He fiddled with the Pokeballs attatched to his utility belt. Yet again, his eye sparkled blue, as if emanating its own light. It faded as soon as he blinked. Jolteon observed the two, snickering.

"What a sadist you are, Sparky." Aegir muttered, deadpan.

" Silence, after all, is the most pleasing sort of music. "

[ Astra Inferi ]

[Age]

19

[Gender/Sexuality]

Fluidfem , she/shx | Bisexual

[Personality]

INFJ | 5w6 | Lawful Neutral

You'll often see hxr with an either puzzled or skeptical expression on hxr face. Shx values her time, and chooses not to waste it on others she deems unworthy. Despite being an Amê, shx acts as if shx was born into noble blood, head held high. Shx questions everything before shx acts, even the most simple, mundane things. Sure, shx may have done it before, but what's stopping hxr from doubting? The only one shx does not doubt is hxr Vie, whom shx serves with utmost obedience.

Once shx trusts someone, shx will doubt them significantly less—but hxr trust is nearly impossible to gain. Despite this skepticism, shx holds an empathetic view towards all living beings, damned or holy.





[Description]

Shx has a striking look to hxr—wide, almost haunted siren-like eyes with a blueish hue. Hxr skin is pale, as if drained of blood almost entirely. Hxr raven hair is straightened at the front for hxr bangs, but at the back, it is kept wavy and long (the picrew did not have any longer hair options as I was using it, so please disregard the back hair of the reference image). Shx has two white bows tied on both sides of hxr head.

Shx stands at 168 cm (5'7 feet or 1.68 m), hxr body slender, bordering on unhealthy. Shx often wears white and black clothing, especially outfits with lace embellishments.

[Role]

Amê

[Transformation]

White violin with black floral patterns scattered minimally around the body. The bow, white too, is intricately carved with florals.

[Affiliation]

Lightchaser

[Backstory]

A Viè procreating with an Âmes? The thought itself seems blasphemous.

And yet that was the case for Astra Inferi, born out of wedlock on a cold winter night. Hxr father, a military general, had... questionable opinions on Âmes, considering them as nothing but weapons, tools. He'd spit violent words on how he wished they'd all just become slaves to the Viè, instilling these beliefs into her.

Shx grew up an obedient daughter, saying no more than a "Yes, father" in response to any command. Hxr father adored hxr for this—who wouldn't love an obedient child? He's pamper hxr and take hxr out to restaurants and parties, proudly showcasing his child like shx was nothing more than a trophy.

Shx used to think that if shx was an Âmes, shx'd simply become a trophy—or perhaps just a prized jewel.

You can imagine the shock when shx discovered shx was Âmes.

Fleeing from home so as not to disappoint hxr father, shx encountered a Viè whom she could rely on—albeit not much—in some rat infested alley.

He had much confidence, shx noticed, but at least now shx had someone to rely on for routine.

The days past, shx grew more withdrawn and skeptical, trusting only hxr Viè for commands and requests, doubting anyone else who dared order hxr.

[Powers]

「 Shriek 」

A simple move—by sharply moving the bow against the body of the violin, Astra (in hxr violin form) releases sharp shriek that temporarily stuns anyone within range, friend or foe. It's most advised people plug in their ears.

「 Evocation 」

This ability takes far more skill to use. Depending on the symphony played, it can evoke strong emotions from anyone affected by rage. Serene melodies result in an almost euphoric peacefulness, meanwhile more violent melodies lead to the listeners experiencing.an aggressive passion.

「 Maestro 」

A passive ability that doubles as a weakness. Maestro automatically tunes Astra (violin form), which can turn even the most inexperienced violinists into maestros. Due to this passive, though, Astra loses energy and nutrients when shx returns to her human form. After being played, shx could faint or even die depending on how long shx's been used.

Yes, you can get every type of gem in the Galar region(? Correct me if i'm wrong with this, though.). You can get rumble maps in any mystery box, it all depends on your luck. I'd say the dragon gem is the hardest gem to find, considering its prices?

Aegir shrugged, leaning against nothing in particular, as he laughed again. Clearly, he was in a jolly mood after all this. His smile was radiant, yet almost mocking. No, surely not. And yet, one of his eyes flashed blue again, and his expression grew cold, before he lightened it up as if in realization of... something.

"Apologies—it's just my nature, y'know? I enjoy lighting up moods. Sorry if that..." he eyed Angelo's expression warily, "irked you in any way."

He clapped his hands together twice, clasping them together. "I see nothing wrong with making a Pokemon faint. It's still alive, and now, relaxed."

He gestured to the vulpix in his satchel as if it was obvious, "Look at the fellow, all cozy."

Aegir was dusting himself off (as the alolan vulpix seemed to soil his fingers with some dirt) he turned to Sorion, flashing him a smile.

"Thanks for dealing with the vulpix," he said, as Sorion was walking away, Aegir still in quite a daze from whatever emotions he was feeling, "People should be more conscious."

He clicked his tongue in disappointment, patting the vulpix in his bag.
