????????? Orion???? You couldn't just... Nik held up a finger to signal him to wait, despite the fact that Orion had turned away by that point but whatever. He had Lucy teleport him to Orion's new room where he neatly hung the dress; this was not a very efficient port but he didn't want to risk this getting mussed.
But then he'd port back to Orion, take a corner of the bag from him and start shoveling clothes with him, and respond, "I was not around for that phase, but now you are required by law to explain what exactly this phase entailed..."

Orion glanced sideways at Nik, a brow quirking. Required by law to explain what this phase entailed? “Pffft,” he grinned and looked at the mirror that hung above the dresser for a second or two before going back to shoveling. “I was… Fifteen? Sixteen? Somewhere in there, maybe, hell,” he snorted at himself briefly because shit memory is shit and nothing matters. “Decided I wanted to wear dresses over baggy jeans and shit like that.” As if he still didn’t wear those baggy jeans to this day in the name of Aesthetic. “Lasted maybe a couple of weeks or maybe a month or two. Nothing big— I…wasn’t that big either back then so..” He shrugged his shoulders snapping the last drawer closed.

Psshh.. Other than the idea of an Orion smaller than any he'd ever personally known, that story was surprisingly underwhelming. "That it? No like... particular reason for getting into this? A popular band or trying to impress a crush or anything like that? Maybe just trying to wreck the system?" Ehehe. He could get behind that one as simplistic as it was, honestly.
He.. still didn't know if he wanted to wear dresses or not, come to think of it, but it wasn't like he had to decide before he'd even made the switch, right? Hrm... He doubted he'd be small enough to try that one and it seemed too sentimental anyway, but he was still trying to picture himself in it now and not sure how to feel. ...Except imagining the same thing but with Orion holding him. That made it a lot better??? Heh~?

Orion snorted softly. “Ya know there probably was a reason but I…” he grimaced a little, his thumbs setting in his pockets. “I don’t actually remember now…” Whether that was just from being an adult and looking back on things or just the sheer amount of brain trauma he’d probably had over the years, Orion didn’t want to know. “I’m sure Auntie does,” he smirked after a moment. “Maybe ask her when you see her.” Bending down to close up the bag of stuff, he smirked a bit. “Since we’re going to Alola~” Did he have to sing that? Yes, yes he did.

"Ahh." Yeah, okay, that was fair. His curiosity would whine about it a little, but not much to be done, right? ... Except that, good point.
Nik grinned. "That we are~" As he started gathering all the clothes on hangers he'd taken from the closet and stuffing them on his arm to port over and hang back up, he noted, "I'll have to ask for aaaalll your embarrassing childhood stories~ Doubt we'll be able to visit much more than special occasions like this so I've gotta farm all the best dirt while I can, right?" Enough to tease him for another year if it came down to it, eheheheheheh. >83
As their work continued, his mind would wander through various things. Ideas on what to ask Carmina about when they were there, how to introduce himself and explain the appearance he'd have by then to the family (maybe wait till after Christmas..? ah, no he'd been putting it off long enough and then would just have more to explain next year), a few more dwelling thoughts about Marcie he tried to push out of his head, some thoughts for extending those tattoos... At one point, he'd remember something he'd wanted to know about for a while, and made note to ask when they were done.
They took anything of Jazz's that may have been pre-boxed for them, but anything else was left for Jazz to deal with after work so as not to rummage through his stuff. Once most of the apartment was cleared, though, Nik asked, "That about it? Anything we forgot?"

Orion’s mouth opened but no words came out. A look of silent ‘nooo’ reflected in his gaze. This was not— he did not— Arceus fuck. Why did he give Nik this idea? A weird noise melted into a residual laugh. Well, oh well, right? Couldn’t be that bad, right? Except knowing Auntie’s good intentions he wasn’t too sure on that heh.
As a lot of things were grabbed and moved over, Orion found his room mostly complete again. He’d have to shuffle stuff around and figure out where exactly the best place to put his bed would actually be (along with where to strategically put his TV and video games after or maybe along with this), but it was there which was what mattered.
“I think we got everything?” Orion answered humming a bit softly looking back at Nik. He could… hardly believe it, but there they were, right?

"Fuck yeah." And not just because he was getting kind of tired of working, ahaha~ Until he found a regular job-- preferably somewhere he could do his work for Dasha easily enough-- he'd have some time to himself whenever Mia and Orion were both working or otherwise busy, so he could always rearrange stuff more then, and as such was in no great hurry to get everything perfect tonight. But it was here; they had a furnished house. And more, they still had a lot of space. Granted he'd have had a couch for both the den and mancave already if he'd realized they'd need both and hadn't sold off the one from the gym's break room way back, among a few other similar decisions he mildly regretted. But honestly, getting some new really nice stuff that would last for years did have a strong appeal to it even if it would take longer-- and for that matter, knowing it'd be an ongoing project had a certain appeal too.
But for nooooow.........
Grinning and grawring, he latched onto Orion and pulled him down onto the bed in there. "Our stuff. is in our house~~!!" He all but giggled with glee. "I'm so damn excited...." Established firmly, but worth restating anyway, ahahaha.
His stomach would soon interrupt the moment with a small growl of its own, though, causing Nik to chuckle slightly. "Hmm~ Maybe you could test out the new kitchen, huh?" That'd give them another excuse to sit and rest and run through their mental checklist to see how done they really were. Then if they didn't think of any work or get that call back from Orion's fam yet, they could settle in and start on the tat and talk more and...
As Nik sat back up, his eye caught sight of the closet again, and a moment after his thoughts went back to their earlier conversation piece, he thought aloud, "...I kinda want you to wear a dress for me." Whoops maybe should've thought and then said but oh well. "..Like just once, heh. And clearly not that one but..." But he weirdly wanted??

Uhmph. Flopping back on his bed with Nik, Orion couldn’t help but lean in and kiss him briefly. Our stuff in our house for our new life together. Ugh this was nice. At the mention of food, he chuckled a bit. “Breakfast for dinner sound good?” he mused softly.
He could always go out of his way to make something nice and really dress it up, especially it’d be the first meal in this new kitchen but it felt almost more appropriate not to, too. Something nice, something reasonably healthy. Eggs and Kalos-toast maybe, heh. Maybe he could actually cut into that zucchini he’d bought the other day and make some zucchini bread and dress that up for desert or—
I kind of want you to wear a dress for me. “What?” Well, that certainly cut into his thoughts a bit. Orion’s lips pressed together even as Nik clarified, and a small ‘pftch’ sound escaped after. He… didn’t really want to, but it wasn’t like he Completely Didn’t Want To. It just… ehhhh… But it’s simple and Nik wants it… EHHHHHHHHHH… C’mon you just told him the story of that dress. EHHHHHHHHH. Oh, apparently that was part of the problem, alright then. “Nope, no way….” he snorted after a moment.

Nik had briefly nodded at the food suggestion, but.. heh... Other thoughts.
He put on a dramatic pout as Orion declined, although he was unsure whether either of them were joking. "Aww, c'moooon..." That... would turn into a huge teasing smirk. "Tap into your inner teen aesthetic. Think of how cute you'd be~~~" He snickered. ...Briefly, he considered telling him to tap into his inner Carmie, but that both felt more personal and also might vaguely imply Nik wanted to bang his aunt or something so-- nah. (... Although?? Now thinking on that angle on Marcie because apparently he couldn't stop dwelling on this?? Eh-- that part was definitely Kinda Weird but he guessed in fairness like.. Hughard kinda looked like his dad and Nik would absolutely have let that man break him in half if it had ever been an option rofl. Or ah? Hypothetically he could admit mom was beautiful so someone with vaguely her looks but nothing else he guessed he could be attracted to?? So more Still Kinda Weird But Oh Well he guessed.)
Toning it back a bit, Nik's face heated up as he admitted, "B-but ah... Honestly I was just thinking... It'd be kinda fun roleplay just to try once, and if I end up preferring myself post-cookie enough I might not..." Arceus why was his face getting so much redder?? This was Orion i.e. the last person he should be embarrassed talking this stuff with but here they were so?? Forcing a smile that came out slightly cheesy, he sputtered, "T-tonight or tomorrow might be the last time I have the right equipment to.. do this 'properly'?" Ha... He guessed there were ways to compensate for that or he could just go back and forth some other time even if he did like it more so...
He shrugged slightly. "Definitely don't want our last night together like this to involve you being too uncomfortable though. So it's not a big deal if you really don't wanna." Ahhh he still felt like he kind of put pressure on the idea though... In an effort to compensate, he latched onto Orion again, hands sliding down to rest on his hips. "Anything you want is bound to be perfect..~"

Think of how cute you’d be ~~~ An awkward laugh escaped from Orion. No he… wouldn’t be cute now, not like that anyway. Nik would be cute, but Nik was cute in anything so? Yeah. What came after, however, had him blinking slowly. …Oh? Oh, oh like… Heh… Hah? Heh… His stomach squirmed a little flipping over and sideways and backwards again. He wanted to? If Nik wanted to but— Ahahahah it did make him uncomfortable. Which was hilarious given himself.
“I….” He took in a breath and rested back as much as he could on that bed. “Dunno, maybe?” His lips quirked and he tried and failed to smile for a couple of seconds. “We can try it?” Maybe? Heh???

Nik looked at him skeptically for a few seconds, then sighed. Yeah, no, you weren't convincing anyone with that Ri', heh. He did appreciate he was willing to try anyway but nahhh. "It's fine," he assured him. Both hands cupped Orion's jaw, and he leaned in to kiss him sweetly. "If a few hours to think on it makes it feel any less awkward let me know, but if not we could do literally anything else." Orion was probably too devoted to pleasing him to take an out that easy, huh? "Or.. maybe you could wear something of mine? Would the roleplay and a toned down aesthetic without a skirt be any better?"

A soft sigh escaped from Orion, and he deflated just a bit at the reassurance. Some vague part of him felt bad but the uncomfortable part relaxed a bit. The kiss was pretty nice too, and the tightness in his stomach was starting to subside. Literally doing anything else also sounded like a good enough plan— … Orion bit back whatever he was going to say, considering that a little more. Toned down aesthetic might not be bad, yeah. Maybe… in a couple of hours, he’d be fine with it too. Heh, who knew, right?
Leaning forward and kissing Nik again, he chuckled a bit. “How about we get up and eat first?” he grinned softly. “Breakfast for dinner and a movie on the couch~?”

"Mmmm~" He hummed into the kiss, and returned it with a few more of his own. "Orrr.... we eat without getting up~" He flopped against Orion to hold him down for a few moments before chuckling and finally getting up. "But nah. Sounds good. Make enough for the Pokemon if we've got enough ingredients and we'll treat them for helping so much today." Afterward, he'd dig out all the stuff he'd need to start the tattoo.
He offered Orion a hand up, and together they'd head downstairs. "You want any help in the kitchen or want me to do anything while you're cooking babe?" He guessed if not he could actually dig for that now, huh?

Hmmm, were there still a dozen eggs in that carton he bought the other day? Orion wanted to say yes. That should be enough then. Taking the hand, Orion would pull himself up before they needed down stairs. “Hmmm I think I’ve got it for now,” he answered. As much as he appreciated the offer he also just... wanted to test out every aspect of the new kitchen at least once before ‘letting’ anyone else use it, heh. “Maybe find us a movie and dig around for that machine? Or just—”
Orion stopped as the piano version of This Is Gospel by Panic At the Disco hit the air. Hm? Pulling his phone from his pocket, he stared for a second before hitting the receiver. “Hey Mom?” He’d… kinda of been hoping to get ahold of Auntie instead, but here he was. “O-yeah it was just— Yeah, I know… Everything’s fine— really— Yes, Nik Nik and Jazz and maybe Luke and…” he paused glancing at Nik before smiling a bit weakly. A small hand gesture was made before he started towards the kitchen about to try and start something while talking.

Heh? Great minds, huh? Or maybe he was just eager to get the scars covered finally. And Nik was glad to--
Oh??? Ooh, good. Nik strained his ears trying to hear Oriana's side of the conversation, but couldn't seem to get more than a faint noise from the phone, enough to tell when she was speaking and maybe some vague inclination of tone but no more. Emphasizing Nik Nik though made him wonder if she actually knew they were dating again?
...Ahhh, well, he couldn't.. exactly remember what box his stuff was in and was pretty sure some of the supplies he wanted were split between two boxes even so... if he happened to pick boxes to search that were close enough to Orion to hear his half of the conversation that wasn't really eavesdropping right?
