As Michi looked at the various displays, she was already beginning to feel better. This was a good distraction from earlier, and everything looked so cool! Was this what Mr. Science did? Or...wait, a lot of these mentioned scientists...that meant...what did that mean? Maybe science wasn't a person but a thing? It was a little confusing but...really neat at the same time. Perhaps she could figure it out later, but right now even just reading about it was exciting. She could feel Lucien thumb over her hand and well, it felt nice really. His hands were warm and Michi couldn't help but smile at the gesture. Lucien's question tore her attention from the displays back to him again. "Mhm~, it's really amazing! It's almost hard to believe!"Michi agreed, beaming up at him and giggling softly. She would've said something else, but another display caught her attention and just like that she was off, tugging Lucien along with her. Red eyes grew as she watched the spinning mobile. This looked so cool! How did they get it to go around like that? Was it the tehc...techy....the thing Lucien was talking about earlier? The comment about dancing pulled Michi back to reality as she looked back to Lucien, eyes sparkling in delight. "It does! I love to dance~! It's so much fun and...hey, that's kind of what the comets do too! In the other description it said they flew across the sky! I guess they didn't find the right partner to dance with, huh,"Michi chimed, spinning a little with the ease and grace of a dancer, careful not to hurt Lucien's arm before she stopped and smiled up at him. "Do you like to dance too?"Michi asked after a moment, practically glowing as she talked about dancing. Yes, the comets and space things were amazing too, but dancing was something Michi still remembered, something she clung to. She still didn't know why she couldn't remember anything, but if Lucien loved to dance, that was at least something they had in common. It would be fun to dance with someone again!

As Michaela looked back at him, Lucien grinned. Her proclamation had him releasing her hand and clapping both hands in front of himself. “Same!” he beamed. Man, it was refreshing to hear that. “Da universe dances! Comets whirl, planets twirl! Humans ‘n Pokemon dance” Lucien laughed brightly. “Ta tha song of tha universe!”
Extending that hand as Michi spun, Lucien twirled her briefly before side stepping into a brief dip. “Ah do,” he whispered leaning in briefly before righting her up again. “Ah know all tha Kalosian ‘n Alolan dances,” he hummed softly. Letting his hands drop slowly after, he shrugged his shoulders. “Tho’ ah dun wanna piss off tha Planetarium workers ‘f we knock inta somethin’.” He admitted softly. Though he could probably pay for any damages, it was the Star Festival, and everyone had the right to come in and see the best the Planetarium had to offer!
“Ya wanna sneak out?” he asked with a silly grin. It wasn’t like they couldn’t just leave but… it sounded way cooler that way, heh.

When Lucien let go of her hand and actually agreed with her, Michi couldn't help but giggle. Her features brightened all the more as he went on to say how many things danced, even in space! The universe and comets and planets and all of it sounded so amazing and wonderful and great. There was a brief moment of confusion when he referred to Pokemon but this was quickly dismissed when he went on about the song of the universe. And his laugh, his laugh sounded so wonderful that Michi simply couldn't help but laugh along with him. The twirl that followed was supposed to be the end of it, a simple expression of joy but...suddenly Michi felt herself being dipped. It wasn't expected, but looking into his eyes, hearing that whisper, it was all so wonderful. She had found someone else who loved dancing and the joy in her eyes was undeniable, even if Michi probably should have been embarrassed at the sudden closeness. At the mention of Kalosian and Alolan dances, there was another brief moment of confusion but then the subject was changed again and the thought was dismissed as nothing. Lucien's next words and following question had Michi giggling once again. "Of course~!"Michi agreed all too easily, taking his hand again and leading him behind one of the displays where she crouched easily. She simply couldn't help but giggle at the hilarity of the turn of the events...even if they were supposed to be sneaking out. "It looks like we're surrounded...how are we going to escape?"Michi whispered, trying her hardest to be serious...or at least to sound serious. Needless to say she failed miserably because try as she might, she just couldn't wipe that goofy grin off her face.

A silly look flashed on Lucien’s features as Michaela agreed to sneak off. He’d been partially joking but heh that worked too then. As his hand was taken again, he’d follow after her shifting behind one of the bigger displays to stare out from around it. As she whispered, he looked back dawning a serious expression. “Der’s gatta be a back way,” he said with a serious tone before smirking playfully. Looking around, he’d find an ‘EXIT No Reentry’ door on the far wall. “Der,” he whispered pointing over to it.
Looking back around he waited until most eyes were off them before clasping her hand just a little tighter and starting to move with a smooth speed towards the next display. It was smaller than the last one, and he was forced to duck down in order to avoid being seen. Looking back at Michaela, he set a finger to his lips, ushering her to be as quiet as she could. This last one was going to be the hardest since it was the furthes—
Before Lucien could turn and head to the next hide out, however, a woman in a planetarium uniform had come around the display and looked at them both. Her aura was dark, less than pleased, but didn’t seem too harsh at first glance. “What are you doing?” she asked pushing up her glasses. A silly look pulled across Lucien’s features as he looked from the woman to Michaela and back again. “Sneekin’ out?” he admitted sheepishly.

Seeing that silly look on Lucien's features made Michi giggle all the more. This was so much fun! They were hiding in the Planetarium and trying to sneak out. Now, if only they could figure out how to avoid everyone's stares in the meantime. When Lucien said that there had to be a back way, Michi shifted around to see the large 'EXIT No Reentry' sign Lucien had pointed out. Well, that might work? But it was so far away....how were they going to make it? Before she could say something about it however, Lucien had already tightened his grip on her hand and was moving towards the next display. Careful not to make a sound, Michi followed him to the next display, grinning when he motioned for her to be quiet. She was being quiet! Or at least trying to considering she couldn't quite hold back an excited squeak. Promptly covering her mouth with her free hand, Michi hoped that that would be overlooked. Nobody was going to find them, right? Michi felt the woman approach before she spoke and couldn't help the shiver at the woman's displeasure. A small, if brief, frown played on Michi's own features before she shook her head to rid herself of the foreign influence. No, she was happy, this was fun! When Lucien admitted what they were doing, Michi tried to think quickly about what might get them out. Well...she-..she could try it? Smiling a little more, Michi bent forward and kissed Lucien's cheek, "Mhm~, that's exactly what we were doing~" she chimed, quickly standing fully and hopefully pulling Lucien to his feet in the process. "Now, if you'll excuse us ma'am,"Michi hummed in a more sing song voice before running towards the exit. Perhaps it wasn't the sneakiest thing she could have done to fix the situation but the kiss looked like it had been enough of a distraction (kinda) to at least not have the lady chase after them. Michi didn't stop even after they were outside again, not until they were a safe distance from the planetarium did she finally let go of Lucien's hand, laughing as she spun around, arms outstretched. "We did it! We snuck out!" Michi practically squealed before dissolving into a fit of giggles, that had been a lot of fun!

With his eyes focused on the woman in front of them, Lucien didn’t have time to react to Michi shifting to kiss his cheek. Lucien blinked. The woman deadpanned, and very suddenly both teenagers were up and on the move towards the exit. As they ‘escaped’ the woman sighed pinching the bridge of her nose. Kids these days.
Lucien, meanwhile, kept on moving along at least until Michaela released his hand and proclaimed they’d gotten out unscathed. A laugh broke from him as he threw both arms up. “We did!” he called looking up to the starry sky above. Slowly lowering his hands, he looked back down to Michi with a small, devious expression on his features. “Ya sure stunned ‘er fer a sec,” he mused twisting himself around slowly as he closed the distance between them again. Reaching to clasp both her hands, he tried to spin them both in a circle.

As soon as they reached outside, Michi couldn't help but giggle as she spun around. They had done it! They had escaped the wicked witch and made it back outside to freedom! Lucien's exclamation made her laugh as she spun again before looking up at the stars. They were so beautiful, even more breathtaking than the ones in the Planetarium. Even with the tecy...tech....stuff that Lucien had mentioned before, nothing could beat the real thing after all. When Lucien spoke again, Michi giggled and tilted her head, giggling at devious look on his face, "Yeah, it did didn't it!she replied excitedly, "I just...really had to get out of there...you didn't mind did you?she asked a little quietly, shivering a little when she remembered how the woman had felt. That had been bad... As Lucien took her hands, Michi beamed up at him again as they started to dance. It was different dancing with a partner. Usually she danced by herself, but this was really fun too! "How long have you danced? You're a natural~," Michi mused, twirling a little as she followed his lead, "Dancing under the stars is fun, isn't it? It's like the stars and moon are shining down on us,"she mused, smiling more as they danced.

As Michi talked, Lucien settled some and shook his head. “Ah’m tha ‘ne who suggested ‘t remember?” he asked jokingly. It was true, though. He had been the first one to say they should get out of there. Running on being found out was just part of that, right? Right, heh.
The spin dance of sorts quickly evolved into something with more cadence and an easier pace. As Michaela asked how long he’d danced, Lucien hummed a bit. “Since ah wuz six ‘r seven, s’mwhere ‘n there,” he replied. He couldn’t exactly remember when dance lessons had started, but it had been one of those things he couldn’t readily get out of— “Part of his education as a gentleman” Mom had said. Heh…
Looking up at the stars as Michi mentioned them, Lucien smiled softer. “Day do dun they?” he asked before slowly looking back down at her. “’Ut ah think our dance’s better.” He grinned toothily before shifting to dance a little faster.

When Lucien assured that the way she'd managed to escape from the wicked witch was fine, Michi brightened once again. That's right, he had been the one to suggest it to begin with. It was silly and perhaps a bit strange but that was part of the fun! As they danced, Michi could feel herself relaxing more as it evolved into something more rythmic. She almost wished she could take her shoes off...it was just so much better to feel the grass beneath her feet. That, and she could use the feeling of the earth to advise her how to dance or where to step. As the dance progressed, Michi put a little more playfulness into her step, grinning as Lucien answered that he had started dancing when he was a child. "That's really neat! I....I've been dancing as long as I can remember," Michi replied easily. Well, that wasn't a complete lie at any rate. She could remember some things, like how important dancing was to her and how much she enjoyed it but...when it came to her past? Michi couldn't remember anything beyond the time she woke up in the forest. After mentioning the stars, Michi smiled when Lucien agreed with her, tilting her head back to gaze at them as they spun. They were beautiful, and she would never grow tired of looking at them like this. Lucien's next words however had a soft blush bloom on her features as she fell into step with the faster paced dance. Shifting one of her hands to his shoulder while moving his other hand to her side, Michi moved in closer. It was easier to dance like this, after all, and a lot more fun. Once the dance became more rhythmic, Michi twirled once again, laughing as she spun once, twice, three times before stopping yet again. "I think so too! It's really fun dancing with you, Lucy~,"Michi chimed, giggling a little as she fell into step with him again.

A wide, bright smile flashed across Lucien’s features as Michi spoke. “Dat’s great,” he grinned twirling them both. Though he hadn’t enjoyed dancing near as much growing up, it had become so important to him in his teenaged years. It was a way to connect with people, a way to get moving, and a way to have fun.
The soft blush that grew on Michaela’s features resounded in a subtle change in her aura that Lucien wouldn’t quite miss as easily even in the dark. It was cute, for sure. As Michaela shifted her hands, he’d reposition his own holding her close and moving rhythmically. For a little he’d fall silent just moving to the beat of his own heart and the song that lay within. After, however, he’d slowly slow and stand upright. Shifting his hands from her, he’d mess with his HoloWatch before turning on a slow track of wave music. “Th’s’ll be bette’,” he grinned shifting back to her.

Lucien's reply had Michi giggling a little more as they spun. Dancing, even without music, was a means of expression, a way of understanding the other person better. Michi couldn't explain it, didn't know how she knew it, but dancing was a way to join two hearts together. Or at least, that's what she believed....was that strange? "I...heard somewhere, that dancing was a way to join two hearts together. Do you think so too?"Michi asked after a moment, looking up at Lucien earnestly as they danced. They would dance like that for some time before Lucien slowed and pulled away. Michi really wasn't ready to just stop dancing yet, and blinked, tilting her head a little before he brought out something that glowed. A small gasp/squeak escaped her as she heard the sound of waves come from the strange glowing thing. "What is that?"Michi asked in an awe-filled voice before he took her hands again. Closing her eyes, it really did sound like the ocean was right there...and with that, Michi easily eased into a smooth step that matched the rhythmic beat of the waves. "How did you bring the ocean to us? It almost feels like we're right there..."Michi mused, opening her eyes again to smile up at him.

A gentle yet silly smile pulled onto Lucien’s features at Michaela’s question. Did he believe two hearts could be joined by dance? Well the universe was held together by it, so why not? It sounded plausible enough. Instead of answering her directly, however, he focused on the dance as if to show rather then tell. He would keep it up until a different thought came to him and he pulled away for a moment before starting up the music.
As she squeaked, he glanced sideways at her and grinned toothily. “ ‘S called ah HoloWatch, ‘t does a lotta stuff ‘ut also plays music.” Considering how she had been about the lights in the Planetarium, he didn’t want to try and get into an even more advanced description of the technology he had. It went way beyond him, after all. Taking her hands instead, he slowly started to dance with her again. Yeah, that felt better somehow.
At the question, he chuckled softly. “Technology‘r somthin’,” he replied. How else could he explain it when he himself didn’t know the intricacy involved. “People build ah lotta stuff ‘n then sell ‘t.” Vaguely again he wondered what her deal was, where she was from, and why she seemed to know so little. She seemed almost otherworldly or maybe just very sheltered. Maybe whoever her parents were were those really strict types that kept their kids indoors and away from the rest of the world or something. Maybe he was just making up shit now, LOL.

Though Michi didn't exactly hear Lucien answer her question, the way he focused on the dance was certainly enough. This was a lot of fun! When Lucien explained that the glowing thing was a holowatch that could play music, Michi's eyes grew with delight. Wow that was so cool! Though...how a musician fit into that glowing box didn't really make sense to her...but it was still really neat! The brief explanation about technology confused her a little, but it apparently was built by people so...ok, someone made the watch and fit a tiny musician in it...and a miniature ocean apparently? Smiling as he laughed, Michi giggled a little and spun a few times before settling again. "That is really cool! I don't know how people got tiny musicians in there...but it's still really neat! I don't know much about ....technology..."Michi stated, giggling a little when she finally got the word right, "Maybe I just forgot?"she continued, shrugging a little as if this wasn't a big deal. That's because it wasn't, or...rather, it was a big deal, but not one that she wanted to focus on. Her memory was rather lacking, and if she chose to focus on that... nah. Michi wanted to have fun and be happy, worrying about something she couldn't help wouldn't solve anything.

Michaela’s giggle had Lucien smiling softer. Shifting his step as she spun, he balanced both of them rather well. Thankfully the grass was rather steady with no unexpected hills or holes or it would have been altogether much harder to keep up such a pace. Instead, it all felt as natural as it did surreal, dancing under the stars. Heh, it was supposed to be romantic or something, right?
As Michi went on, a silly look came to Lucien’s features. “Dun think they shoved a bunch of people ‘n there,” he grinned a bit wryly. “Jus’ captured what it sounded like and saved it for ‘nother time.” At the very least, he knew how some audio recording and visual recording went. He’d made his fair share of music videos with friends— not like they showed up anywhere special, but still.
As she went on to mention technology, Lucien slowly tilted his head. “What do ya remember?” he asked slowly. Maybe that was a better place to start after all.

Seeing the soft smile on Lucien's face made Michi smile all the more, laughing as she spun. It felt so natural, so nice to dance under the stars with him. Honestly, Michi could easily dance the night away with Lucien, but it had to end sometime, didn't it. Hopefully not too soon though, this was just so nice. The silly look at the question about a tiny musician, Michi giggled a bit at his response. Captured what it sounded like huh? "So it's kind of like a music box?"Michi asked after a moment before admitting that she might have just forgotten about all of this. It was hard to know what she did and didn't know but well...the list of things she did know was rather short. Still, it was kind of amusing to think of a miniature musician in the Holowatch. Lucien's next question should have been predicatable. Michi had just admitted she might have forgotten some things. And...there was that minor episode in the Planetarium too. It had only been a matter of time before he asked but still, Michi hesitated, faltering in her step only slightly before recovering. Smiling up at him, Michi did her best to sound like she didn't care, or that it didn't bother her. It did. A lot. "Two weeks ago? I woke up in...Jayme said it was Alto? So Alto Forest. There were a lot of...deer and fawn creatures...I got lost in some tunnels and...after that there was a fire pony that led me to a big red building. Jayme gave me some things and...I went to a garden at the Sinclair train and met Haiiro, he gave me a job, as a gardener! Haiiro told me there was a Star Festival in Liggs so I came here! Michi explained briefly, trying to summarize as much of what she could remember without worrying Lucien too much, "I'm still me, though. I don't know how I know that...I just...do? I...I know there's something I'm missing, something important but...I'm fine. What else can I be?" she continued, giggling a little as if to try and cover up just how much the entire thing bothered her. She had woken up in a strange forest surrounded by strange creatures with nothing but the clothes on her back. Anyone else would have panicked but...Michi could tell the creatures around her wanted to help, they had been worried about her. Perhaps they were the reason why she was handling all of this so well. It was a new start...though it wasn't until recently that Michi learned this 'new' place was Veria.
