September 29th, 2011 2:17 PMSelenaStarYaaay! you're my first brother! hahaha :D I'll be a Raichu!!! I <3 Raichu.
"Great!" grinned Brogan, practically swooping on the boy and completely ignoring his obvious awkwardness and uncertainty to loop her arm through his and actively lift him off his feet as she dragged him over to the battlefield, throwing a satisfied backwards glance to her Father who had walked into the room to watch Brogan with an expression of fatigue on his face.
"Now, you stand...here...that's great," she ordered, depositing Bri at one end of a battlefield and skipping over to the opposing end, twirling round at the end and grinning widely at the audiences around them who had turned to watch. Of course they had turned to watch, she was Brogan Houghton-Taylor. She couldn't help but turn heads wherever she went. Smirking smugly, she made a mock bow to Brian and pulled a PokeBall off her belt, releasing her prized Buneary.
"Your go!" -
September 29th, 2011 2:05 PMNideousOf course you can, if I can join yours. XD Which pokemon would you like to be added to my collection as? And I'm Charizard, as you can tell from my sig. :D
Bri looked up when he heard someone approaching, rather noisily at that. Hm... Brogan? What did she want? He felt his cheeks flush and his mind went blank. The same reaction he had to any girl that tried to talk to him. He listened to what she was saying. She wanted a battle? Hm... Well, what was the worst that could happen? He get humiliated in front of the whole school? Been there done that. He looked around for someone, anyone to get him out of that. No one was present. He was all alone.
"Erm... Uh..." He sputtered out. Duster yanked on his hair painfully.
"Bri! I'm bored! Take her up on her offer!" Duster said. Bri nodded wordlessly. He then decided to try and speak again.
"Er... I... I guess it couldn't hurt," Bri said. He wasn't aware of any hidden agenda or anything like that. He tended to take people at their word. He looked around, wondering just what she had in mind. Because, knowing her, this was going to be a big thing that would likely command everyone's attention. -
September 29th, 2011 1:48 PMSelenaStar"What an...inspirational speech Father," said Brogan as her Father finally finished schmoozing all those executive types with the polite conversation and firm handshakes, noticing that his special extra-familiar twist to the convention was only used with certain suits. "Though, I fear, it was wasted on the ears of these people. As I was saying earlier, mere days in their presence and it becomes clear that they have absolutely no idea of proper etiquette or breeding...how they ever expect to make it in life without this basic knowledge is beyond me. They're no better than savages really, I swear tha-"
"Brogan, please!" her Father cut her off somewhat abruptly as they reached the entrance doors to the Conference Centre, turning to her sharply with face drawn with what looked suspiciously like anger and frustration at his Daughter's attitude. "You can't talk about people like this, no matter how little you think of them. You treat people like they won't achieve anything in life and they won't, I've told you all this! How much do you actually know of these people? Have you gotten to know any of them at all beyond the first impression I know you make so quickly?" he asked her with a raised eyebrow and Brogan's face turned dangerously impassive.
"I don't need to," she said with a careless shrug, folding her arms and turning to look in the Conference Centre...spotting a lone Brian...perfect. "All I need is for you to take me out of this hell hole. There is nothing they can teach me, I know you wanted me to learn about Pokemon so that I can bring something more to the company when I finally do work for you, but I know more than these people combined. I will show you, Father, then you will have no choice but to agree and do as I say."
Finishing rather snottily, Brogan turned on her heel and clicked her way over to Brian loudly with a lot of show, her face bright with a wide smile despite the anger burning inside her - her own Father! How dare he even speak to her in that way! She wasn't one of these easily impressed buffoons who would allow him to address her however he wanted, Director of HoTa or not. Father or not for that matter.
"Brian, I wondered if we could have a little friendly battle? You know, get everything rocking here? You do understand, I want this Expo to be a major achievement for my Father, and I believe that having his Daughter illustrate the best battle techniques would be a brilliant way to get it started!" she asked with a small laugh, tilting her head to the side slightly and smiling at Brian innocently, sounding ever so convincing. Even Skye would have difficulty deciphering the lie and hidden agenda! -
September 29th, 2011 1:40 PMSelenaStarHey! Yeppp I'm going to start the joint post off now :):) Logged on earlier but just completely got distracted. But here we gooo :) On the proviso that I can join your PC family XD
-
September 29th, 2011 12:59 PMNideousSay, are you still wanting to do the battle between Bri and Brogan?
-
September 28th, 2011 2:28 PMNideousHey, you wanna start the JP off? :D
-
September 27th, 2011 3:14 PMNideousBri is cut off from his friends. The only person who's face he knows that he can see is Brogan. In short, he's ready for a battle. XD
-
September 27th, 2011 1:47 PMNideousXD Anyways, she could always use another lackey. Especially one so close to Skye. That's motivation enough. And yes, I've seen the two of you chattering away about Brogan and Skye's rivalry. XD
-
September 27th, 2011 1:41 PMSelenaStarI'm not too sure yet, but it won't be anything too bad...tbh, it would be more of a case of Brogan finding amusement in being able to order Bri to do something and rely on the saving of his brother's life as collateral. It is just purely that she has the spare dollar, she loves to play games with people and have something to hold over people - once she grows bored she'll more than likely leave Bri alone, but until then...I don't actually know what she'll try make him do yet tbh, I need to think of that a bit more.
But yeah, that wouldn't be the primary motivation for her anyway. It's all the games :)

September 27th, 2011 1:38 PMNideousBrian is not above taking charity. Though, he would wonder why she was being so nice to him after Skye's practically turned him against her. But in the end he would probably take it. So long as she doesn't offer it when he's around other people. Like Skye. XD
And what kind of stuff would she blackmail him into doing? Because Bri's got a code of ethics, and there are some lines he will not cross. -
September 27th, 2011 1:33 PMSelenaStarWell! I was just thinking, HoTa is a PR firm, but of course it will have a somewhat comprehensive and sizable legal department - marketing and PR is fraught with libel cases that HoTa will have to avoid - so that could easily work later on in the RP.
I've just had somewhat of a brainwave...now tell me what you think about this...how about if Brogan finds out about Brian's sick older brother and gives him the money for the operation..? Would Brian accept this, if this is the only way that they could afford the treatment or would be refuse it on the basis of it being 'charity'? After all, Brogan can be very persuasive...
Because I'm sure after Brogan battles Brian and learns that 'lesson', along with finding out about Bri's sick brother, she will have a major change of heart and turn over a new leaf in her life...
Or not. But that's for later on...to Bri, she is offering the money no-strings attached because he made her re-evaluate the way she treated people and he needs it and she has it..?
(Obviously it won't be anywhere near that straightforward ultimately, Brogan will most likely hand over the cash and then when the operation is done she will start trying to manipulate and blackmail Brian using her saving his brother's life as ammunition. She does love to have leverage over people.)

September 27th, 2011 1:28 PMNideousHey, isn't the HoTa Corp a law firm or something? Because it would be an odd twist of fate if Bri's brother was going to be hired by them when he graduates. XD
-
September 27th, 2011 1:25 PMNideousNo, Thyme will not be taking part. She's resting in Snype's care. XD Still not sure how that one is working out. Luckily for her, Snype is a very mild personality. No, Bri will be using Duster, Drizzle, and Frost. XD
And as far as dirt goes... You know that Bri's family moved to Hoenn from Unova really fast. Well here's why. Brian's father used to work at a big company, but he came under suspicion of stealing office supplies, which he was, and selling them to make a little extra money for his family. The minute he heard about that, he packed his family up and moved to a different job. Bri has no idea of any of this.
Brian also has six older brothers. His oldest brother works at a pokemart in Slateport. He doesn't really do that much else, but he sends money back to his family to help support them. His second oldest brother got a full scholarship and is studying to be a lawyer. He has the hope of working for a very large law firm, and he's already got several recomendations and stuff like that, so when he graduates at the end of the year he's likely got the job. His third oldest brother is a jock in his school. Again, not much to know about him. His fourth and fifth oldest brothers are twins. They are very big trouble makers. They have a court date for stealing and drug trafficking. His last older brother, who's only twelve, has a terrible illness. He needs an operation, but due to his family's misfortune, can't afford it. And of course is Brian, who has the odd ability to speak to pokemon. And, and this may be very tough to find out for the PI, he cheated on the entrance exam to get into the academy. That's why he's in Entei Dorm.
That enough dirt for you? -
September 27th, 2011 1:12 PMSelenaStarYES. Dirt would be great - Brogan's sooper dooper PI would probably be digging away on Bri the moment Brogan announces the battle XD And he is sooper dooper at his job, fo' realz.
But of course!! Ohhh...will Thyme be participating in this battle at all or will she still be taking it easy and resting?
-S -
September 27th, 2011 1:09 PMNideousOh goodness, what have I done to Brian. He really doesn't need an enemy with her kinds of resources. XD And if you want dirt on him and his family for her to use, because that seems to be her thing, let me know and I'll tell you all you need. XD
And this is going to be a good battle. And I'm trying to decide if I want to make Bri get a bit preachy at the end. Only trying to be helpful, of course. :D
