Is that ... Zoroark? (finished)

December Smoon The wind flustered through the purple fur on the Zoroark as it walked down the well traveled path in the forest. It looked completely real, but this pokemon was not what it seemed. For what the world saw as a shiny Zoroark, was merely a shy teen girl in a costume. After all not all cosplay of people dressing up as their favorite star after all, and December really was the type of girl who played to dress up this way. Why had she came out so far? Well it was simple she didn't want people thinking she was weird. How she had made it off campus without anyone seeing her, she didn't know. Or maybe they did see her, but just thought she was a pokemon. What she did know was for sure no one saw her come out of her dorm room and no one was in the room when she changed into the thing.
Now at her side was Sandy her Sandshrew who honestly loved the idea of her trainer taking a chance to do something she loved. Now as the too came to a small clearing in the forest Dec decided it would be a good idea to put together something for the upcoming show. So she and Sandy started to dance...the tango? Yes, it was odd, and the two where clumsy doing it. At one point Dec tripped and feel down which made Sandy run to her, but laugh as the girl into the Zoroark outfit laughed.

How did you know you were really friends with someone? When you could share your weird hobbies with them and they wouldn’t judge you. How did you know you were best friends with someone? When you could share your weird hobbies with them and they wanted to join in.
Dawn flipped open another chapter of Noragami. Hiyori’s outfit was easy enough to make--she’d just attach some starry speckled cellophane to a thin wire base, and, bam! Instant phantom cosplay outfit. Even Yukine and Yato’s outfits weren’t hard. The hard part, however, came to finding someone who would cosplay them with her. She knew plenty enough blue eyed boys, but she didn’t really feel like any of them would be up to playing dress up with Dawn at a convention full of equally as over enthusiastic people. ”Mm, maybe I should just fight a giant toxicroak. Maybe then I’ll earn someone’s unending loyalty and limitless favors.” Ever the spoiled child, Dawn pouted and crossed her arms, putting her manga back in her purse.
When she looked up from her escape from reality, Dawn saw the most curious thing. It was a zoroark and a sandshrew laughing. Now, zoroark were rare enough as it was. The size consistency and color issue didn’t even register. The thing looked real enough, especially from a distance.
She felt pretty blessed. Normally, zoroarks kept an illusion around themselves in order to hide. ”H-Hey, you zoroark. What’re you doing here?” There was probably an owner nearby.

December Smoon Dancing with Sandy Ember didn't notice someone was coming closer. She had thought they where far enough off the path that no one would notice them. Then again they really weren't that far and just a few feet of trees hide them from the dirt trail. Still when someone spoke Ember looked in surprise to see Dawn. Of course her face couldn't be seen from under her costume, but still. Well maybe if she pretended to be Zoroark Dawn would just believe it really was the pokemon and then wonder away. Of course then there was another idea that popped in her head that she really hoped Dawn didn't try. No Ember seriously didn't want her room mate or anyone for that matter to try to catch her.
She had stopped when she noticed Dawn. Frozen she just looked at her. Sandy stood in front of her looking like she was ready for battle. However, Ember didn't give any word for such an action so the yellow pokemon didn't attack. Stepping backwards she just looked at the blue haired girl before she turned around and started running. Soon afterwards Sandy was following right behind her. Ember never really could run too fast and in this suit she was even slower, so if Dawn really wanted she could probably easily run after the two and catch up.
The girl in the shiny Zoroark suit then came to a stop as she reached a dead end. So she just turned around to see if she had been followed.

Was it mad at her…? Dawn tilted her head. ”Um…” Aw, its little buddy was trying to protect--wait. That sandshrew looked kind of familiar. Dawn squinted, bringing a hand up to her lips in consideration. ”Sandy…?”
Then, the duo bolted. Dawn stood in shock for a second before bolting as well. If that was December’s sandshrew, then maybe the zoroark was December’s as well. Maybe she had little zoruas, as well! Dawn’s heart swelled in combination of over-exerting herself and the thought of a whole litter of little zoruas turning into cute little children. ”H-Hey!” Dawn called. She skidded before the zoroark and the sandshrew.
Her bag flew open and the Noragami manga flew out. Dawn bent over to pick it up, dusting the glossy cover off and blowing in between the pages. ”G-Geez, don’t worry, I’m not take you from December. You’re both hers, right…?”

December Smoon Breathing heavy the maroon haired girl felt like her heart was going to pop out of her chest. It wasn't from running, no. It was because she was having a panic attack. She could hear the blue haired girl coming. Looking at Sandy who looked ready to kick butt and play a nice game of bowling for people Ember held out her hand so the pokemon didn't go and tackle roll Dawn as she stopped and picked something up.
Was that a Noragami manga? Ember could hardly see it, but she was fairly sure it was. Interesting maybe she could take a chance and let Dawn know her secret? What the worse that could happen? Other then Dawn posting it on her blog and making sure the whole school knew. Oh wait that was it. Still as the blue haired girl asked them if they where both Decembers. Well Ember shook her head no.
Oh she couldn't take it any more she was having trouble breathing now. Reaching up to the head of her costume she pulled at something until it looked like Zoroark was pulling off it's fur. As she did that a sound of something pulling away from something could be heard and then she unzipped the back and head of the suit. Coming out she took a big breath of air. Her face was red, but at the same time she was looking very pale. "I ...I ... I... ca...can't ...br...breath." She said in huffed grasping breaths. That made Sandy come over and help her sit down. Yep December was having one nasty panic attack.

Confusion was clearly confused when the zoroark looked as if it was about to pull its own pelt off. Between Sandy being “randomly” aggressive and this, Dawn was starting to wonder if she’d stepped into an episode of The Twilight Zone. ”Um… uh--” Then, she heard it. As a fashionista, Dawn of all people knew the sound of a zipper.
”It’s a costume?!” No way. The quality, the detail, the movements! It was all so realistic! She had to know who was behind this masterpiece!! If December wasn’t involved--no. Wait, December was involved. She was the one in the costume.
Dawn ran over, panicking a bit as well, though more out of mass confusion. ”Aw, geez, did ya’ forget to put vents in there?!” she asked, more concerned about her friend than the costume for the moment. Dawn would fish around in her bag for a bottled water before hastily opening. ”Here!” Maybe she was overheating. ”C’mon, December, don’t faint or anything! I can’t carry you!”

December Smoon It wasn't that she was over heating from lack of air flow she had made sure there where vents when she made the thing. After all December Smoon was no rookie when it came to sewing or cosplaying. It was a weird but fun habit she had shared with her sister November when the two were younger and before Nov went off to go start a band with a few others of their siblings. Her mom even got in on it a few times, but the creepiest time of all was that one time when she, Nov and their mom dressed up as Oddish and it's evolves, and then her grandfather dress up as Bellossom and just followed them around for two hours yelling Bellossom! Yep that was a weird one.
Taking a deep breath, she got in a rhyme of breathing right again, but she did take a little bit of water as it was offered. Finding she could catch her breath again, Ember looked at Dawn and was silent for a few moments. "Um, any chance you aren't going to tell the whole school about this?" She asked as she then realized what Dawn had said and she shook her head. "Don't be silly the vents are in the ears and nose." Sitting on her bottom now and not her knees she looked away shyly. Her face was still the same as before only not as red, and not as pale either. She was just covered in icky sweat though and the wind felt very nice, but at the same time she was no cold.

Closing the water up and placing it back in her bag once December calmed down, Dawn just took it all in for a minute. ”Why would I tell the whole school?” That was a very serious question from Dawn, who was genuinely confused as to why December thought she would spill the beans. December hadn’t done anything to get on Dawn’s bad side, so there would be no benefit in doing that. At the same time, Dawn knew exactly how embarrassing being outed could be. Ohhhh, that’s right. December didn’t know Dawn understood this sort of thing.
Laughing a bit, Dawn rubbed the back of her head. ”Aw, geez, that’d make me a bit more of a hypocrite than usual if I did that!” She winked, hoping that December got her drift. ”Nice costume, by the way. Ever worn it to a convention?”

ooc: I don't wanna code. )
Taking another deep breath the girl looked down and shook her head, then looked up at Dawn. "Most people don't understand." She said as she remembered a time when she was bullied by three mean girls who found out. Pushing that thought out of her mind She then looked down and brought her arms out of it to pick up the head and dust it off. She was embarrassed that Dawn caught her, but she still didn't want her suit to be all dirty.
Looking back up at Dawn as she spoke she was confused for a moment. Then it dawned on her (pun not meant). When she finally did her eyes went wide and she laughed. "No, well not this one. But my sister, mom and shamefully even my grandfather went to a convention as the evolutionary line of Oddish once. I was Oddish and grandpa was Bellossom." She explained. As she got to the end she made a weird sort of face. "If you ever meet him don't say anything about Bellossom. Okay? He still has that costume." She then warned. After all no one wants to see and eighty-four year old man running around in a Bellossom costume.

Dawn stood, offering her hand to December. It probably wouldn’t help much, seeing that Dawn was a pipsqueak. ”Nice! I’ll try not to, but I’m kinda jealous that you have people to cosplay with!” A sudden look of inspiration cross Dawn’s face.
”I mean, uh, unless… you wouldn’t mind if I made my own costume. And, you know, started… cosplaying with you?” Throwing her soon to be famous puppy dog look at December, Dawn tilted her head ever so slightly. Depending on whether December was standing at this point, Dawn would angle her head either up or down. ”Friends do this kinda stuff~” When would Dawn learn that she could just ask for things rather than try to bed and sneak for them?

Dawn helping her up didn't really work to well, but she was able to get up. Then she tripped on her feet and fall back on her butt with a thud. "Oops." She said softly as she shifted until she was standing outside of her suit. Standing up slowly she felt cold. She was wearing her bright blue toutou (I still can't spell it) and a white shirt, with black tights. Weird yes, but comfortable? Oh yea. "Um I don't mind. As long as you don't tell people it is me." She then said softly.
"I don't do well in crowds and well..." She started to trail off a little there at the end. "People can be cruel." No she didn't tell Dawn about the three mean girls, how made her life a living nightmare of a year and a half until her family moved out of Hoenn, but there was a tone of maybe she has been bullied over her cosplaying in her voice. "Oh, geeze no stop STOP!" She then said as she noticed Dawn's face. "Goodness Dawn. Please stop with the baby-doll eyes I thought only pokemon could use moves like that." She said in a joking manner as she let another laugh out.

Looking at December in her ballerina-esque garb, Dawn tilted her head, admiring it. It wasn’t anywhere near appropriate to wear in any sort of situation, but the whole ensemble had a certain relaxed charm about it. ”Gosh, I’m really gonna have to dress you up one day~” You can’t just make people your dolls, Dawn. However, her playfulness subsided at the thought of people bullying December.
”Humph, if anyone’s mean to you, then they’ll wish I was just using baby-doll eyes on them.” She could “play nice” alright, but Dawn would show just how manipulative, underhanded, and all around catty she could be if anyone decided to “play rough” with her friends. ”Still… no conventions. Until you’re confident.”
Realizing that they were still in the forest and that Dawn had to go finish up her own plans, Dawn dusted herself off. ”Well, if that’s all, I think I’ll be on my way, my little dark friend.”

December was a little unsure about Dawn at the moment. She knew her outfit was a little odd, but still it was what she normally wore when in her suit. That and she really liked it. Hadn't it been Dawn who said black and white with some color in her blog? Well not that December knew Dawn was Blackpearl or anything. "Um, why?" She then asked softly as she looked down at her cloths. "It isn't that bad is it?" She then hummed as she looked back up when Dawn started to sound less playful and more serious.
She didn't say anything to that. She just sort of stared at Dawn for a moment before looking away. "So um, what where you doing out here anyways?" She asked as she rubbed her head before stepping back into her suit and putting it on. Sandy had to help her with the zipper though. Holding the head in her hands she didn't tuck it over her head just yet. Instead she stood there for a moment and listened to her friend. "Well, okay then. See you later." She replied as she tucked her head back on and put everything back the way it was before. Wait! Did she says dark or dork friend?

”No, no, the outfit isn’t bad. It’s really cute, actually. The tutu’s a little… specialized. I was just thinking you’d make a cute little model~” Yeah, because miss four foot eleven totally needed to call others “little”. Mm-hm.
Blushing, Dawn motioned to her bag. ”I, um, like to read my manga out here sometimes. A lot of the scenes are in the forest… and…” Gosh, the rest was too embarrassing. Who really wanted to hear that their roommate liked to pretend that maybe a story type situation would happen to them? There was playing pretend and then there was being childish!
But, all that clarified, Dawn really did make to leave. ”Still, excellent dark type costume~ See ya~!”
ooc: lol, exit for real this time cx

Who was Dawn calling little? December was a whole two and a half inches taller then her. Then again her mother was five foot two and her father was six foot five so Dec may be like her sister June who was six foot, or she might be closer to one of her brothers, five foot five or even shorter then that. The girl was still growing so that was a good sign she wasn't gonna be a shorty.
Sighing December said nothing and instead just listened. Nodding every so often she then waved when Dawn took off, and she herself and Sandy ran off to go do whatever in the forest as well.
ooc: :3 Thread Finished. )
