Attempts to come off gruff and standoffish. Usually fails. Likes: Water, leather, punk clothes, piercings, tattoos, names Dislikes: Being called cute, sweet, helpful, nice, being called Phee. Personality:[/align] Tired of being called things like 'cute, sweet, helpful, good' etc, Manaphy is out to prove to the world, that NO that's NOT correct!

She has been known to tease other pokemon/kids "because it's fun" and yet turn around and defend that same individual if someone else tries to do the same thing. Has her moments of being "too nice" and will immediately go on the defensive again as she realizes her facade is slipping a bit too much for her comfort.

There had been a bright light above the water, that much she recalled...having lept from the water to try and get a closer look at it. So watching it splash down in the ocean brought a thrill to her, and off she raced to see what it was that had landed within her domain.
Shiny...it was so shiny. She'd swam deeper to see it, hoping to catch a glimpse and just as she had, darkness had fallen over her. Waking had proven interesting...it was bright. So very bright and she squinted her eyes against the sun wondering why she'd fallen asleep on her back floating.
It hadn't mattered, it just required a flip and down she went into the water. Except there seemed to be more of her than there should have been. It made her wonder and she continued to swim, oblivious at first to the changes.
Breathing under water wasn't an issue. Breathing above wasn't an issue. It was when she surfaced near a group of people and started to hear 'Where's that child's parents!?' and 'Find her some clothes!' that she realized something wasn't quite right and she swam away quickly, finding a quiet area to inspect things.
It was with surprise she found herself with arms and hands, legs and feet. She wiggled her fingers and toes and let her hands slowly touch her face and the top of her head feeling strange stringy stuff.
It was a gleeful grin that crossed her face, realization that she was no longer as she was...and that she didn't look like she knew she should. What had happened she didn't know and it didn't matter. Now it was time for a new beginning and she was more than looking forward to it. No more being called cute, and sweet, and helpful...she was tired of being taken for granted. No more!
First things first...these...clothes...that those people spoke of. She needed to find some of those.

What's in a name?
There was enjoyment by the fact she could live both on land and in water and the opportunity to do both was exploited often. Adaptation to land life was slow in happening with the water always so close at hand.
A temporary name had been settled on. Phee. She didn't know if she liked it, but a name was needed she realized. In fact it was something she became obsessed with, and if you asked her today what her name was she might tell you Grant, while tomorrow was Lyre, and after that Merit.
She was changing her name daily trying them on for fit, knowing no one got to choose their names, they were always given to them by parents. So she was special...and oblivious to the fact that many names were gender specific. So if she wanted to be called Karl, then so be it. Though no, maybe she wanted to be called Rysk...
None of those seemed to work though, so Phee is what she stayed as, though she truly hated it, it was a shortened version of what she was, and it wasn't pleasing this reminder.
No..maybe she was Bob....nah too short. Cian? She'd learned that was a color, so that wouldn't do. Temper? No those were bad apparently. Song...well she did hum and did like music but no.
The hunt was on to find a name, after all a name would make or break her she was realizing, and she wanted a truly awesome name!

Bubbly!
Phee enjoyed swimming in the water, and spending time with the creatures there. Oh sure, most could tell who...or rather what she was and treated her special for it, but really there wasn't anything worth treating her differently over...well not really.
So more often than not she found herself sort of hiding out and watching things from behind various objects in the water. Sunken ships, large rocks whatever.
It was in this way she was able to watch a fight happening, not new but not something she'd really ever paid attention to either. This time though it was different, and it was with wide eyes and appreciation she watched as one used Bubblebeam on the other, and she felt something well up in her as she watched the attack hit.
Swimming off quickly she found an area she could practice and while it took a bit, it wasn't long till she had a steady stream of bubbles coming from her hands and ricocheting around off things. A laugh bubbled up from her as she quickly surfaced and attempted the move again more than a little pleased to see the move worked when not under the water. Perfect!

Moving On
The water was holding Phee back. She needed to move away from the water, and not be so tempted to slip into it and away from people. She looked like people and despite not being one needed to spend more time around them.
Already she'd started dressing like them and really liked what she'd found even if she got odd looks and more than once called a boy. Whatever those were. Oh sure, she'd noticed some of the humans looked different. Some younger, some older...some softer, some harder. She wasn't aware this delineated gender and age. It didn't matter much to her really.
Still, it was the harder ones she wasn't fond of, whatever they were. They had loud voices, and were too rough and violent. Not that the soft ones were better at times...the old ones at least seemed harmless and the young ones mostly curious though at times cruel.
Maybe she needed to not live near people...could that even be done? There were those tall things off in the distance...they were that green color...maybe over there...they looked interesting anyhow.
That decision made, Phee decided to head to the forest area and check it out, all the while being on the look out for the humans both young and old, male and female. Especially the males...she didn't like them much. Icky things!

It was interesting this new body. There was more to her than there had been before, and with the change in body type, came the fact she didn't pass for a boy anymore, and so Phee opted to change how she dressed and switched to girlier clothing. She was resigned to the fact she'd never get past being nice and helpful though these days her preferred look did seem to deter people from asking her for help all the time, which was a relief of sorts.
She also realized that now she could get a job and work...and did so with great enthusiasm saving all her money wanting to buy this beautiful house she'd seen that seemed to be situated between a beach and a forest. It was lovely, though it needed some work. Still this was all things she could accomplish now that she was bigger and stronger.
This whole being bigger thing, was definitely a plus! There was so much she could do now. Of course there was other things that came along with it she had to learn about, but she was adjusting to those as well...just took a little doing to adjust.

Gimme a Beat! (Music store shenanigans)
Will & Shou: It was a balmy weekend that had Shousuke and Will out together, chatting amiably as friends often do after a long absence. Work had taken the two friends away from one another for far too long, they had surmised. It was time for a hang out day, and what better way to spend it than kicking it up at a music store?
Walking in ahead of Shou, Will held the door open for the smaller male before stuffing her hands back down into the pockets of her loose pants. She knew she was in the right place the moment she heard the music overhead. It sounded a lot like the kind that her band had played when they were still together, and what she attempted to play on her own. If she could manage to sing without sounding too feminine she’d be in business, but alas, that was Shou’s department. “You said you were looking for…what exactly?”
“Something to get the clubs blood pumping. I can’t make all the mixed cds, you know. Guys gotta take a break sooner or later.” Shousuke lead his way down one aisle, flipping through cds as he went without ever really stopping on one. “ I mean, I could always start singing….” He grinned sadistically, turning to Will with a mischievous glance.
“That would yield results.” She stated stoically, her eyes never leaving the drum kit near the back. It was an alabaster color, and so beautiful….
Phee & Llyr: Phee had become defacto manager at the music store, the previous one up and leaving out of the blue and she the only other person working there. It’d left her with very little free time, and in need of a worker or two. Which was there the rather quiet Butterfree teen came in. He was her new higher, and currently wandering the floor tidying up in the usually busy store in one area, while she got new instruments and such to the floor.
Seeing the pair walk in, Llyr stopped what he was doing, and ambled towards them making sure he was seen so he wouldn’t startle either of them. “Can I help you find anything?” he was still within his first few weeks of working here, but it was a decent job…as far as he could tell what with it being his first and only job ever. Phee glanced over her shoulder at him and gave a thumbs up to him as she carefully set a guitar on a stand. If he needed her, he’d let her know she knew.
Will & Shou: Though Will had been the first to see Llyr approach, it was Shou that took the front man position. "Sort of? I'm the DJ of Underground, which as you can guess, is an underground club-" He gave a little eye roll with a smirk, loving the play on words from his job. It was great. "and the music has gotten stale. Most of the time I make my own mixes, but I'm out of ideas, so I'm kind of poking around for new ones. Testing the field, you know? Got any suggestions?"
After making sure Shou was set up with assistance, she nodded politely to Llyr, and moved past the two towards the drum kit. Her tail had taken notice of the drum sticks on the wall, giving little snaps at them, willing them to be closer so it could chew on them as it did hers…
Phee & Llyr: Llyr listened to the teen talking, his expression unreadable even as his pulse raced a little. What a question to ask of him! He glanced around a moment at the rows of cd’s and such he’d just been straightening up and he walked towards a rather over looked section and selected a couple of cds. “As strange as it sounds…these are good. They’ve got good beats, since it’s African tribal drums and stuff. But it’d give a good back beat. As for something else…” he looked around still in thought. Hm..what would work…
Phee heard the footsteps approaching and so she turned with a smile to the teen walking to her. “Welcome to Brazen Beats, can I help you with anything?” she could see the eyes being made at the drum kit and motioned towards it. “Want to take a closer look?”
Will & Shou: Shousuke cocked a brow, a little concerned when Llyr started to bring out African beats, but after a bit he nodded his head. "Do you have somewhere that I can give these a listen? Or at least a sample? It sounds like a good plan, but I want to make sure before I break out the tribes on these people. Spoiled rich kids would flip on me."
Her tail turned to Phee first, grinning with a wide, manic smile before Will herself turned to look. She nodded, her face mostly impassive. "Is that alright? I wasn't sure if I could, since it's a floor model." Her version of "looking" would be to play the shit out of it, and she was afraid if she got too into it loose bearings from the not fully put together floor model might slip.
Phee & Llyr: "There's a booth back here you can listen to them." he could see the doubtful look on the others face and knew they were warranted. It was an out there sound...and as the other had said, people might flip. "Wouldn't want to start any riots." he unlocked the booth for the other and motioned him in.
Phee laughed and nodded. "Yeah I don't mind if you try it out first. You're not the first person to want to try the instruments out. I try to make sure they're all fully functional and ready to use." and from time to time she and Llyr messed with the instruments and such. Usually during an abnormally slow time. The sounds tended to drag in people from the street at least.
Will & Shou: The small wigglytuff laughed and shook his head. "You wouldn't believe how out of shape club goers can get when you mess with their jams." He followed to the booth, and went inside, taking one last look at Will first. "While we're out of the way here, how much would that drum kit happen to be? My friend theres a little tight on cash, and his is played out, so I'd like to help him out." He peeped around the corner, pointing to Phee and Will. "That one, that one right there. See it?"
A genuine smile lit up Will's face. "Thanks. I haven't been able to play as much lately, and it's been a pain." She moved around to sit, adjusting the seat for her added height. Reaching for the tester sticks, she moved them around in her hands, and checked everything over before ripping into it.
At first the sound was quiet, testing the waters as it were, but as she played her smile grew and so did the sound.
Phee & Llyr: Llyr looked at the kit that was being motioned to, it not hard to figure out what one was meant when the other sat down at the drums to give it a test. “That particular set is three hundred and ninety nine…after taxes closer to four fifteen…but we have a sale right now which would knock about a hundred off that. My boss there is wanting the instruments to move.” Which they hadn’t been lately.
Phee made sure the guy was set and good to go, before she stepped away a moment to finish with the display set ups, keeping half an eye on everything to make sure there was no funny business going on here. Better safe than sorry.
Will & Shou: Shou felt himself wince at the price. Even with the knock off it was still a chunk of change, but he knew he would afford it, tight bills or not. With Tryce camping out on his couch more often than not the bills had gone up, but he knew Will would never be able to pay for it herself. And in truth, he band used to bring in a lot of business to the club when they were still together, so much so that he'd gotten paid extra so it would be a nice bonus. Nodding, he moved inside the booth. "I'll take that too, and couple pairs of sticks as well. Now, let's see about these tribal beats, yeah?" He paused, then looked at Llyr, "Do you play an instrument? Or are you just a music fan? And what about that girl out there, does she play anything?"
Ah-ha, this was awesome! Will was absolutely tearing into this kid, her flop of pink hair moving around on her head as if it were possessed. She'd missed this so much - it was the only real time she felt free. There was no light music coming from her; it was all hard core beats, things that would no doubt carry down the street.
Phee & Llyr: "Sure thing, I'll make sure those get run up and if you give an address we'll set up delivery for the kit." easier than anyone schlepping it around after all. "I play guitar, Phee...my boss there she taught me. That's all I can play. She can play a few instruments though and sings more than she admits to." he'd heard her more than once.
Phee looked up at the beats coming from the drum, a smile on her face. The guy was good, that's for sure! A natural it would seem though she suspected there was a lot of practice behind the playing. The bell over the door rang, and she glanced up to a group of guys coming in. With a laugh, Phee looked to Will. "Want a job sitting there playing to draw in customers?" she was only partially joking!
Will & Shou: "Sounds like a deal. I'll write it down later when we check out. Maybe even keep it a surprise." Oh, she'd have a field day with that! Grinning, he leaned back against the booth and pondered. "You two wouldn't happen to be interested in a band, would you? I mean, Will out there, he plays drums, obviously and has been looking back to getting into the business, but hasn't been able to since his bandmates went off. One got married, the other went back to school, things like that."
Will laughed. "I wouldn't mind the practice, if you don't mind me showing up." When she was't working with her sister, she wouldn't mind the extra time to just get stress out of her life. "I'm not so good with pop songs, though."
Phee & Llyr: "That sounds like a good idea, I'm sure your friend would appreciate the surprise." Llyr was about to move away from the booth when he blinked at the band question, and gave an almost shy nod. "That'd be kind of cool I think. I can always talk to Phee, she might be up for it too." he couldn't speak for her after all.
There was a laugh from the Manaphy teen and something of a grin. "Not exactly a pop song sort of music store anyhow, so you're welcome to play what you want whenever you drop in." why not? She was already proving to be good for business. "I'll pay you for the time you spend here too, how's $12 an hour sound?"

Hang 10! (Phee Learns Surf)
"You're sure this will work?" she looked down at the disc she'd been handed doubtfully, but slid it into the computer she was standing by and watched some sort of holograph or something pop out of the screen, showing her how to use the move. She watched it a second time before shrugging. "Alright. Lets give this a try..." she paid the man she'd bought the TM from and went out of the pokemon center she'd been standing in and to the waters edge. Kicking off her boots she waded into the water before she was trying, feeling the water bunching under her feet, supporting her. Propelling her!
A whoop of delight came from the teen as she surfed across the water with ease, a grin on her face. This had been worth every last penny she'd spent, and she knew it would come in handy in the future.

Aqua Ring (Skill solo)
Things were not going as planned, that much was quite obvious to Phee. She'd been battling the other pokemon for some time, and she was starting to grow tired at this point. She knew being a legendary she ought to be stronger but she'd slacked in her training, in staying strong... and so she was having her ass handed to her, almost literally.
Dropping to a knee Phee closed her eyes trying to find the strength to continue when she felt a warmth flowing through her, a new sort of power filling her as a burst of water exploded around her, surrounding her in a ring of water. She felt herself growing a little stronger as she stayed surrounded and moved back to her feet. Her opponent looked wary now, and she grinned, realizing she'd leveled up and learned a new move. "Perfect...time to kick your ass..."

Distrust Phee isn't sure she can trust Llyr anymore...
Phee was starting to wonder if she could trust Llyr. She'd woken briefly when he'd left camp, assuming he was just going to get some water or find a private place to relieve himself. So when morning came and he was just returning, looking rather beaten up and refused to talk about it, she was on guard instantly. Bad enough she felt like someone had been following them, but now she didn't know if she could trust one of the people she'd brought with her. It was a worrisome feeling. Still, she gave him some berries to heal up with. He'd have to make due with wandering on no sleep. His own fault he hadn't gotten sleep she figured. Still, she did hope the sullen Butterfree who looked like he'd been beaten up would tell her something before long! It was sort of annoying being left in the dark wondering why he looked like he did.

Black tie event..
The woman was eye catching, that much was undeniable. She was obviously a pokehuman like her...a shiny by the looks of her... her style of dressing was interesting, not one she was used to seeing really...and then there was her height, she was so tall!. She realized she was so big because she was one of those mega's she'd been hearing about.
Helping the woman she learned she owned an art gallery and was actually trying to replace a set of instruments stolen from them, that belonged to a band who was to have been performing at an open house sort of thing for the gallery. The main reason she was looking to replace them was because they'd been stolen from the gallery its self. While priceless art had been left untouched the instruments had been taken away with.
The woman was sincere, and truly troubled by the theft. After close to an hour of helping her pick things out based on photos provided a sale was made and arrangements made to have them delivered a few hours from then.
As she was preparing to leave the woman who gave her name as Alchemy, invited Phee to the event that evening...and she found herself accepting...then asking about the dress code. Hearing it was formal caused her to momentarily panic, but she realized she could afford to get proper clothes for the night, and said she'd be there.
Once she'd left, Phee wondered what she'd gotten herself into. A black tie affair? Her!?

Dress shopping...? (Phee has to get all fancy!)
Once the delivery to the art gallery was on its way, Phee left to go home and look through her clothes though she was almost certain she had nothing that would work for such a prestigious event. Sure enough a complete search of her closet pulled up more of the usual.
The mess of punk attire was left in a heap on the floor as she went back into town again. There were several choices of where she could go. The first chased her out, and she was reminded of that movie she'd seen awhile back... Pretty Woman... it had been a nice movie but boy she knew now how it felt to be treated like trash!
Finally, she found something in the second store that was more accepting of her being there and when she explained what she was looking for got shown several dresses that she tried on. Finally she found one, it was long sleeved, and seemed perfect for an art gallery. With shoes and accessories and a bag of things to do her hair with in hand as well she looked at the clock, time was already running low... still she had enough time to stop at the music store and dip into the store room, changing into everything, her normal attire left behind.
Her usually spiky hair was styled carefully for the evening, though in her haste of trying to change out her jewelery for more appropriate items she found herself dropping the spiral shell she'd turned into an earring and felt a sharp pang go through her. That had been a gift from her first ever friend Niall... and now... it was gone. Cleaning it up she reluctantly threw it out, it shattered beyond repair, and put on dangling earrings, and a necklace that matched pretty well.
Looking at the time, she grabbed the clutch she'd bought that matched the dress and threw her keys and such in before she was locking back up and hurrying across town, trying her best not to trip on the heels she was wearing, and very much not used to being in. Nearing the front of the art gallery she drew a deep breath and stepped inside then, hoping she wouldn't make a fool of herself.
