It had been several weeks since he’d begun searching throughout all of Veria for someone who’d just…suddenly vanished off the grid. Without any word, without even telling anyone where he was going. What made this worse was that the fact that he was one of the high-ranking officers that helped keep the region safe was what was bothering Damian.
Then again, he’d already done it once. But they’d already found each other just last year.
“But… why, though?” he muttered to himself, as he leapt down from his exhausted Salamence’s back, recalling the Dragon/Flying-type back into its containment unit and shrinking it back down, the better to give his companion a good, long rest.
“Where did you go…” he continued, sighing, rubbing at his eyes.
He’d been searching nonstop while getting little rest, only taking short naps at Pokémon Centers when he needed to, before continuing to search again. What surprised him was how… apathetic the rest of Rhafiel’s colleagues were when it came to looking for their Commander.
The combined physical exhaustion, stress, paranoia, and worry had piled up and had sent Damian down into another one of his depressed moods, and he wanted to drink away the pain that was slowly but surely building up inside him. While he knew that Mike was around, he didn’t want to bother his best friend—and instead chose to go towards the Underground, and commiserate there.
But of course, he didn’t go down without any sort of offering.
After sending Mia a text message that asked if she was free for some time to chat and have a few drinks with, he then made a stop by the surface-side bar and picked up some of the best, hard-hitting alcoholic beverages they could offer. He was secretly pleased to see that his favorite bartender had somehow managed to procure a bottle of Kaufmann, and he’d asked for that one, along with some of the best beers that they served…
…and he was now riding one of the lifts down into the Liggs Underground, keeping one hand on the cooler that was filled with ice and the beverages he’d brought along. He could only hope that Mia had some snacks to go along with all the drinks he was bringing down with him.

Mia was a bit surprised by the text Damian sent, but given drink offers from him tended to be rare...and not without a secondary purpose behind them, she made she to make some time. Sure she didn't get along too well with the surface bird brain in a work environment, but given how he needed advice last time she wouldn't turn him down on instinct...on the one hand she would help him if he needed it, on the other hand, if he gave her more material to laugh at in private, she wasn't gonna look that gift horse in the mouth either.
"Thanks for keeping an eye on her Astrid." Having gotten Vesta, Astrid and Aela out of the house, the latter on the list looking after one another...or one just looking after the other really. "Just...make sure if you let her have a drink you stop at two. Apparently they were real lightweights in her world, what with not having alcohol and all. Yeah. Yeah you guys enjoy yourselves. OH! Er...if she grabs someone just let her do her thing. You're gonna need a crowbar with your arms to stop her."
Finishing up the call she pulled her first beer out the fridge as the door knocked, walking over and smiling to Damian, beer still in her hand as she waved. "Hey bird brain!~ To what do I owe the pleasure and booze?"

Damian was secretly hoping that Mia didn’t have anyone over, because how would he be able to explain himself with enough alcohol to knock out a Rapidash on him?
Either way, once he’d reached the Underground, he then made his way out of the lift and began winding his way through the streets, his own figure cutting a rather wide swath through the crowd he’d passed.
In no time flat, he’d found himself outside the side entrance to Mia’s gym / living quarters. Before he was about to knock on the door, he was a bit surprised to see that his opposite number had beaten him to the chase, and had not only opened the door for him, but had already gotten started with the drinking as well!
“Hi,” he said glumly, before raising the cooler up to eye level. “I brought some beer from topside for you, along with my usual shit,” he began, rubbing at his eyes. There were dark circles underneath it, and instead of his normal perky (if somewhat sassy) demeanor, it looked like someone had sucked the happiness out of him.
“…mind if I crash here for a while?” he continued after he’d opened the top of the cooler, showing Mia its precious cargo. “I just… well, I’m looking for someone to talk with… about something.”

Mia was definitely a bit surprised to see the state of her surface side counterpart. The rings under his eyes were one thing, everyone got a few late nights now and then, but the actual expression was easy enough to recognize from...well, Nik, after he'd sunk into some depressing topic. She'd step aside before he even showed his precious cargo to invite him in, gesturing to the couch as he continued to speak and giving him a soft smile, not too sure what was up with him, but at the question of crashing...well...
Her initial reaction was discomfort. Mainly on two fronts. For one, as much as their little reivalry let them actually get to know eachother, she wasn't all that close to bird brain. Secondly...well she was running out of space as it is. "Er...You mean for a few hours or a night cause-" No Mia now was not the time to deal with this, just look at the state he was in. "Know what, we can talk about it later, for now I'm assuming you just wanna chat and get drunk."
