"Honestly, that does sound lovely right now. I bet she's going to bring back an albariño, too. A local white. She knows I can't get enough of the seafood here."

"Well, paella is always good. Herb infused rice with lots of shellfish and vegetables."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

"I know how to handle water. And so do my Pokémon. It would be silly for it to give me trouble."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

He couldn't help a soft blush at that. Curse how pale he was. "And you're as handsome as ever, champion~. Any idea what you're going to try?"

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

"Sort of... My Swampert has done it to someone that was harassing me..."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

The hostess flashed Raul a smirk before going to get it. The captain chuckled in response. "You know, she's likely getting wine. I hope you don't mind that."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

"Wasn't saying you. Just people like to underestimate me ans water-types for that reason."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

"Thank you~." He softly kissed Maxwell's cheek before sitting down. The hostess quickly set down the menu. "Drinks?"

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

Raul tried to hide how shocked that made him, trying to laugh it off. "Elegant doesn't mean weak, it's very true~."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

He smiled, taking the offered hand with his weaker one. "Of course, carino~."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

"I certainly try~. Having my Poliwhirl out usually sends a message to not try anything."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

That was a good thing since it was a lot of teasing from the hostess towards Raul. The captain had been bragging about Max... The hostess grinned, grabbing only one menu and leading them to a table. "This way."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

Raul smirked. "I wouldn't be a good merchant if I couldn't read people."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

"...That's a maybe. Need a clear head for sailing."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

Raul chuckled, opening the door and smiling as the hostess did instantly notice him. "Captain Raul! Back home! Maldición... Quién es el guapo?" He couldn't help blushing. "Oh, stop! That's Max." "That's him?! Vale la pena presumir de él..." "Oh, stop it!"

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

"Oh, I couldn't agree more~. Someone is after just their own pleasure, that's what toys are for."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

He chuckled, winking. "Certainly know how to treat a man in my opinion."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

He smiled, not minding at all as he was helped down. "Gracias, carino~. Ready for the best restaurant in Paldea?"

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

"You're also clever. A trait I admire. And with how you haven't treated me so far, fae outweighs anything that would make you scary."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

Raul hung on with his good arm, laughing until they reached the restaurant. "Let me go first. They know me as a local."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

"My~. Aren't you one to spoil a man~." He chuckled softly, hanging on to him.

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

He gave a soft laugh. "Second tier, northside of the town."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

"Well, aren't you being a prince right now? I have to warn you, I'm one of those skinny people that can eat a Miltank." He laughed, partly joking as he managed to keep up. Leaning on someone always made walking easier.

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

"Alright, carino. But...the restaurant first~?"

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

Raul chuckled softly. "I meant like my Sharpedo but that also works."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

"Well...that's certainly fair." It didn't bother Raul. Sure he came off as sauve but he rarely expected more than to charm his way to a sale. The captain understood eyes judged and sometimes would take what he could get. He had confidence but...didn't change people. "Sounds nice to me."

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

"Long as I'm on a Pokémon, we can travel through the desert separating my hometown from the auction."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 15/02/2026

He gripped his cane for a moment as he looked at the strange ship. "...Why not? Should be fun. Need any supplies?"

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 15/02/2026

"Is it possible? I mean to take me with you. It already sounds exciting." Even disabled, there was no denying Raul's adventurous spirit. Despite wearing a dress, he even wore boots instead of heels to move more comfortable through more places.

010

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 15/02/2026

Something Raul was just learning. Maybe not helped by the he wasn't in every universe of his world. "I can believe that. Meanwhile, I'm a little lost about yours. It makes me curious to see it someday."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 15/02/2026

"So I don't have to explain Pokémon to you. That's good. I guess you're more familiar with my home than I am yours."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 15/02/2026

"It's how things work here. The league runs their regions and one must have a strong bond with their team to pass the test. Being cruel to your Pokémon gets you no where..."

000

Sailor Raul @paldeanpirate.bsky.social · 15/02/2026

"Closest you'd find to a king around here are champions that proved themselves as having good hearts and clever wit."
