"And now, I'll make them all disappear!"
A dazzling wand for effect. Golden stagelights blazing. The stage itself, which has to be sweltering for any poor soul who voluntarily steps up.
This is where a magician shines. This is their territory. Here, they captivate their vast audience — moths to a forever-burning flame. Focus is all it takes. Those who blink just might miss the feature of the show. Those who do not may go home with dry eyeballs, but it's worth it if it means they got to witness a display of magic like no other.
The magician in question waves his pearly wand and the bundle of alabaster rabbits standing idly by in one comically large hat suddenly vanish. A collective gasp fills the room. There is a second or three of pause, all awaiting the end of the trick.
Soon, it comes. The rabbits have disappeared without a trace and in their place, beautiful doves of the same clean alabaster color. The crowd is brimming with applause, and the magician tips his hat with one hand, waving out at the flock of doves now with the other.
Meowscarada vibrates with childish excitement, her tail eagerly wiggling. Her eyes have been glued to the TV for at least four hours. Imagine the headache she must be suffering right about now. Or maybe she pulled some magic of her own just to ensure she didn't get a headache in the first place.
You can only guess.
"I thought this guy got cancelled," you say. "After he totally botched the last trick and almost killed a guy. Now they got him doing these basic tricks? Yikes, he used to be good."
Meowscarada looks away from the TV, her eyes snapping bitterly to you. Her wagging tail ceases motion as she stares daggers into your soul.
You throw your hands up. "What? You can't tell me you still enjoy this dude!"
Your partner hisses, baring her little fangs. She jabs your shoulder with a fist hardly firm enough for it to hurt.
"Oh, please. You know I'm right." You roll your eyes. So does she. You stick your tongue out and blow a raspberry at her. She gasps softly and does the same back to you, puffing up her cheeks.
Every day is like this when you're away from taking to the road and knocking out gym challenges. Just you and your Meowscarada sometimes acting more like a young married couple than just trainer and Pokémon.
Which is a really weird thought.
Needless to say, you enjoy the relationship you've built with her. Ever since she was just a naive little Sprigatito, she thrived on your presence. She would never spend a day anywhere without you in arm's reach.
Nothing changed when she evolved into Floragato. Actually, her behavior may have only worsened — in an oddly good way — at that point in her life. She was acting much more bold in that form. Never did a day pass without Floragato climbing into your lap, facing you with somewhat of a seductive glint in her eyes or using every inch of her body to cuddle you when least expected.
As a Meowscarada, she's learned to dial it back, but you'll still occasionally find her posing sensually on your bed late at night or making naughty faces at you from across the room or even straight up using grass magic to toy with whatever clothes you're wearing.
Okay, so maybe she hasn't dialed it back that much. Or at all. But she's still much more mature than a Sprigatito. Well. You don't know if that really means anything in the grand scheme of things.
She has her moments. Like right now. All you two do on a normal day is exchange playful banter and tussle over silly topics. It doesn't matter how deep you reach into an argument; the days always end in the two of you cuddling on the couch. Meowscarada will groom you as best she can for a human who always washes themself anyway, and in return you'll stroke the silky fur on her belly so that you can listen to the sweet sound of her purring.
The magic show she was watching cuts off and turns to a new one by the time you and Meowscarada are done going back and forth. You both turn back to the TV, immediately drawn into what seems to be a bland infomercial.
"This ornate pair of matching gold-plated rings is perfect for you and your significant other," the woman in the ad announces in a tender voice while the camera pans deliberately into a slow-rotating stand holding the jewelry. "Whether they be human, Pokémon, or the man on the moon — Illustrious Jewelry brings out the very best in a couple. Even for those who don't have their sights set on marriage, these rings will still spark the deepest love you and your special someone share, a love you may not have known existed."
You stick your tongue out again, this time at the TV. "Blegh. What kind of idiot would buy into this crap? They're just plain gold rings."
Meowscarada doesn't react to your criticism. She's honed in fully on the infomercial. When you look over at her, you can even see her little tail waggling again. You grin, thinking no way.
"Get them today," the woman continues. "Prices starting at..."
Click. You set down the remote after turning off the TV. Meowscarada instantly bounces out of her trance, looking slowly to you with a distant look on her face.
"C'mon. Don't get brainwashed," you tell her. "Earth to Meowscarada. Jewelry doesn't 'spark love', you know. Not always. Don't get sucked in by some dumb ad."
She looks from you to the now-blank TV screen and sighs, her tail gradually coming to a halt.
You haven't noticed the uncertain look in her eyes. You carry on your way, popping off the couch and heading for the other room. "I'm gonna have leftovers. You want some too?"
She shakes her head, still gazing at the empty TV.
"Suit yourself." And you vanish into the kitchen for some microwaved chicken alfredo.
* * *
While you're away, Meowscarada turns the TV back on. The infomercial continues, and the highly invested feline leans forward on the couch, way too absorbed into the so-called brainwashing.
She's disregarded everything you told her about the ad. The one thing on her mind now is absolute.
"I need to get those rings. That way, Master and I will fall in such a deep love that we didn't know existed."
"... that's what the ring lady said..."
