Contest Category: Cute Trainer: Mari Ohara Pokemon: Spinel | Staryu Move: Water Gun so much water gun because staryus know nOTHING ELSE
Costume: Mari and Spinel are decked out in somewhat similar garbs-- mermaid-esque but to make up for the Staryu's lack of a body, Mari has done it up with flowing ribbons which match the top and her "tail". Around its arms are pearl-like beads and little charms similar to the ones in her hair. The flutter and sweep with each flip it will make while it shows off its acrobatics to Mari's song.
Stars with varying colors of glitter have been stuck onto each of Spinel's arms and up Mari's shoulders. She did her best with her Staryu's lack of a face as a canvas by simply glittering it up and making sure it had all the possible adornments she could manage. There might be some shiny stars in the contests and the audience, but it's very, very hard to beat the glittering between the two of them.
Act: [ She holds her Staryu close in her arms to her chest with its gem glowing the faintest of dim reds which fade on and off slowly.
She appears to be the center of the show but that simply isn't the case, as all will see in a minute when the music begins to bubble up in rising, elegant tones. This prompts the gem to glow a little lighter and with the crescendo, Spinel is raised up and up over Mari's head like a beacon cast over its audience. The music bursts into a poppy tune as Mari throws the starfish up in the air, allowing it to do many cartwheels above with Water Gun sprays. THAT STARYU IS READY TO GO!! ]
♫ Watch as the curtains open! Hey, everybody! Welcome~! ♫ [ It lands perfectly on one of her palms on one leg-- and this isn't a small or light Pokemon, showing the strength of itself and its trainer. ] ♫ Now's the time to play! ♫ [ Spinel spins in her open palm before launching itself in the air for her to do a pirouette under. Another perfect catch follows. ]
[ She turns on her toe, surprised to see it on the ground, summoning itself up with another Water Gun to almost meet her eyes with its gem glowing yellow. ]
[ The puddles are no issue as she hops through them, mimicking Spinel's lead in the dance in a hop-hop in a big circle with his Water Gun jumps. ] ♫ As we splash and dance around! To the ocean's favorite song! There is a party about to begin~ ♫ [ They both turn toward their audience-- Mari blows a kiss and Spinel's gem turns pink. ] ♫ Won't you come along~? ♡ ♫
[ The hand by her mouth suddenly covers her lips in mock surprise as the Staryu cartwheels a big circle around her that she turns with to follow while in the middle of. ]
[ It approaches again and she leans to the side as if to listen to it ] ♫ Could it have been something magical in our afternoon tea? OH--!! ♫ [ Promptly, she is squirted in the ear with some water. Damp hair and all, she giggles out her next lines as rehearsed from Spinel's playful "secret" telling antics. ]
[ She holds out her arms, allowing Spinel to launch itself into them and make her twirl around once she catches him for a hug-- ] ♫ It'll be okay~! [ She punctuates her lyric with a big ol' smooch to its gem.
She tosses it up again, allowing it to Water Gun its way off of one of her hands and hold itself high in the air while she makes a careful turn. ]
[ Swapping hands, she turns in the opposite direction, showcasing how well Spinel is in the dexterity department through all this. It doesn't miss a beat, nor does it waver in the water pressure it is using. ]
[ When it allows the Water Gun to subside again, it cartwheels through the air and allows her to catch it again. She spins on a toe and while her skirts are soaked, it looks just as pretty as a real mermaid. When she stops, she widens her eyes, speaking right to the Pokemon. ]
[ Spinel spits a little bit of water at her again in a playful reply. ]
[ A gasp as she faces her audience, dropping the creature like a deadweight but grinning all the while when it catches itself as rehearsed, letting out a huge water sport in front of her that she proceeds to walk through soaking wet in the process. Her fingers tap her lips and she blows another kiss. ]
♫ When you are not around, oh I miss you! ♫
[ She places her hands over her heart, twirling about on a foot once in the water puddle and flipping her hair. Spinel leaps through the air forming an arch of water over its trainer. ]
[ Spinel uses the vast amount of water it has strewn across the stage for more arm to arm hopping, its gem dazzling in the lights while it uses its trainer as something to merely have as a prop for its acrobatics and gymnastics. It sparkles bright yellow on the word 'fantasy', making Mari's golden eyes light up. ]
[ She gasps with a pink sparkling gem allowing her to touch with an open palm-- Only briefly, as Spinel retreats and leaves her feigning abandonment for the sake of the performance, flitting away in a tumble through its own puddles. ]
[ She winks right at Spinel for it doing all the right things like they practiced and then some as they approach the finally of the act. Over her head it goes again but in an arch in the other direction; Mari's arm reaches up, following the whole thing but not being able to reach it. ]
[ Spinel hovers before her with its gem glowing in a rainbow-ish flicker for her to reach out. Her grasp falls intentionally short as it launches itself high, HIGH into the air for the finale. ]
[ Here they go-- Spinel appears to fall from the sky to do a bellyflop, caught just in time! ]
♫ Not another day will I push my love away!! ♡ ♫
[ And with that lyric, she hugs it to her chest and finishes her dance with some rushing through the puddles and spinning. She stops in a graceful pose that places her cheek to one of Spinel's arms while the lights fade, leaving only its gem red and pulsing like a heartbeat...
The music closes and she opens her eyes up to grin at the audience. ]
Thank you very muuuuch~!!
[ She curtsies and sets Spinel down to let it bow like a proper creature before they glide across the stage in all its... soaked glory. ]
