The previous meal from the cafe wasn't really filling for Cynthia as she didn't eat all of it. Some of the items didn't meet her taste criteria, a few left with a couple of fork marks on them. The cafe's food items were also really sweet rather than savoury which also applied to her hunger. When she ate, she'd want something savoury to fill her up, rather than all the sweet sugary foods. As it appeared, the karaoke bar had a lot of savoury foods! There was definitely more than enough to fill her up here before dinner! "Well... The cafe's food wasn't as filling as I hoped so I was choosing some food. You can choose whatever else while I sing!" 

She'd grab the microphone off Leon before selecting a song on the jukebox once more. She wanting something a little rowdy, a little more feral, something that'll stretch her away from the champion image she held. It wasn't long before "Applaud - Lady Gaga" Was chosen on the jukebox. Although Cynthia wasn't much for attention as she already received tonnes from the media, songs like these really hit her hard. The pace, the funky vibe, along with the lyrics. These were the lyrics that were definitely going to take her champion image away. Unlike the first song she sang, she wasn't as still as before. Slowly, as her confidence grew, so did her actions around Leon. It wouldn't just be a still standing singing anymore... She began dancing as she sang, not giving a damn what Leon thought about her anymore. She was having fun.

Okay, time for my boomer music-

Leon starts looking at the foods as soon as Cynthia told him. The woman is right. Sweets never could fill him up. All that sugar... And he's reminded again that he needs to work it all off. What the champ wouldn't mind is anything with meat! Karaokes are crazy places. They could serve full course meals here too! Leon saw a hotdog platter and was interested in these "Platters" Before looking up from hearing Cynthia start her verse. Well, not without hearing the beginning cords for the song. It seems like some kind of music you'd definitely hear in a party.

The compulsiveness of it, the boldness, and the *Energy* Exuded *Crazy.* Leon leaned back in his seat for this one, wide eyed, jaw set in a straight line as he watches the other loosen herself up through the song, dancing and saying such things because of the lyrics. He... Admired her for that, too. *"So this is how she's like?"* It's always different to see someone who's usually composed to relax in this way. It's mentioned many times how Cynthia could be quite the sass away from the public eye. Honestly, the contrast in public personality and private is pretty cool.

It proves the image people are allowed to show the society, fitting of their position. Cynthia, usually mature, can be quite wild too. He laughs a bit from her dancing. At least the Sinnoh champ is able to let down her hair, even with him around. "You go!" Leon retrieves a tambourine and tries to beat it along with the music, further encouraging Cynthia to go all out. It's a music that's beyond his taste, but he can still appreciate it.

Her hair was let loose, the perfectly styled hair was no more as she danced whilst singing. This was the only time she could let loose with no one else looking, apart from Leon of course. There were no cameras, no paparazzi, no audience, this was her domain of party. Only God (and Leon) could judge her now but she couldn't give a single care in the world. This was too much fun, too much for her to let go. The touch of youth was still deeply embedded in Cynthia's heart and she not about to let it fade away any time soon.

As the song began closing, Cynthia found herself out of breath. It wasn't because she was out of shape, but because of the combination of singing and dancing, using twice the stamina compared to doing just one action. During the song, she caught eye of Leon's reaction, which made her chuckle. Leon had never seen Cynthia so wild before! This must've been a brand new experience for him as well as he usually viewed her as a sassy older sister who was boring and all about books. She hoped this new experience would allow him to see a new side to her, a side that no one but he has seen.

She was definitely feeling the heat now, taking off her coat and throwing it onto the seat next to Leon. She'd closely follow in after, taking a seat next to Leon. After wiping herself with a tissue, she looked towards Leon, grinning widely. "Heh, I hope you enjoyed my little wild side Leo~" She'd nudge him a little, teasing him. "Oh, right, have you selected on something to order yet?" She'd ask right as she saw the menu laying in front of them once more.

He was amazed, but for some reason, the champ speculated she'd have this kind of energy. Someone that pretty and blonde wouldn't just be a bookworm. It's good to finally see this side of her, too! He gives a sage nod at her direction. As soon as she sat down next to him, he crosses his arms and lower his head exaggeratedly. "Yeah, you've definitely showed me," He replied, affirming once more with a nod. If Cynthia could let herself go, caving in to how she really is, Leon could too. 

"Oh, uh, I got distracted," Leon admitted. His ADD rarely did him any favors, but this is one of the many times he's happy his attention was elsewhere. At least he was able to register another version of Cynthia in his mind. "Why don't we order the whole menu like before?" He joked and got up from his seat. The champ isn't so shy now! He might be bad still, but, he should take his own advice for this too. Just have fun! "If not all, at least all the *Platters.* Leon searches for a song. He's honestly an oldie. Thanks to his mother, he listened a lot to it back at home. The Galarian man can be seen as boisterous, but he can be gentle too!

The song isn't too upbeat or too hard to sing. Nonetheless, Leon enjoys singing it ~~in the showers~~ because of how soft the vocals are most of the times. It's like riding over the ocean waves, the waters a bit rough at parts but otherwise smooth sailing. Romance song or not, he likes the melody of it. Down to earth, better times—

Cynthia was quite pleasantly surprised by Leon's next choice of a song. She didn't expect such a song to be sang by a man like Leon. Wild, free and young, and this song screamed nothing of it. It was quite a pleasant change from the wild songs that she sang earlier on before which made her feel a little embarrassed. However, she quickly changed her mind about it knowing how much her younger soul wanted it. Her soul wanted to scream those songs, for as long as it stayed young. 

As Leon sang on, Cynthia's eyes would've been on the menu. A few glances towards Leon here and there but she wanted to have a little snack before they moved on from the spot. Hotdogs were on a good deal and they seemed pretty good to her. Other items such as a full meal was present but it would've been a waste if they were unable to finish all of it, and Cynthia was not about to waste food. The pleasant tune of the song, blessed by Leon's voice set the environment pretty well. After selecting a couple of hot dogs, she'd place the order on the tablet device. A couple of songs and the food would be here.

She'd lean on her hand, supporting her face as she looked at the himbo. The sudden surprises, his singing was all just too much for Cynthia as she gave a little chuckle. Who knew the trainer she once knew could develop so much into who he was today? The last time they saw each other, he was a boy with his Charmander... Still cute as ever though. She gave claps as he sang.

So Leon is one for talking loudly so his words could get through but singing is different. If he continues this up (and the fact he's using his throat and not his diaphragm to sing), his throat going to be very sore by tomorrow. Better they end it with a bang, and the rest can be spent eating... Again! Cynthia's clapping along got him embarrassed slightly but he sung on, not very worried about his voice this time. Just having fun like he should be! In the end, he was huffing once more. Not as hard as before, since it was a pretty paced song. "Hey Cynthia, Let's sing one more song," He said, and flipped through the selections. What would be a good song for the both of them? Leon didn't want to hold Cynthia back of her "Pop-culture" Energy, so no oldies.

That's right. They're going to sing a duet together. Recalling back to Raihan and Piers... He wants to have fun like his pals back then. Checking the "Popular" Section in the songs selection, Leon spotted *Closer.* He heard this song times before as he's out and about. It sounded good enough as he tries to remember the melody of it (but doesn't at all with the lyrics). "Is this good enough?" Leon points it out to Cynthia, handing the mic he has to her. He would get another one anyway. "It's a duet. Let's at least try one!" One again, he clenches a fist in front of him in determination, eyes glowing with expectation toward Cynthia.

As Leon handed her a microphone, along with a song of his choosing, she stood up, leaving the menu behind. The food was already on its way! She'd take a little look at the song title, something called *Closer* Or *Closet,* It was around those lines anyway. A duet? That Leon picked out? How good or bad could this possibly be? If it was anything like the songs he had chosen before, it was probably gonna be another slow, calm and mystical. Perhaps a duet needs those qualities to be a successful duet, or would Leon be surprising her with a song that's similar to her tastes when singing? It'll be a surprise and she'll only find out if she begins singing. The determination in his eyes were admirable, almost like a fire burning within them. She knew she couldn't back down either, her own determination flaring up like a Flare Blitz.

The song was pretty nice, a welcoming tone, smooth lyrics... But they meant something more than just lyrics. There was a hint of love behind them. Right as Cynthia saw through these lyrics, her eyes widened, her heart began beating faster, and a red blush grew right across her face. Thankfully, the rooms were a little dark, hiding much of it from Leon. Did he choose this song on purpose, or was it a shot in the dark. She sang through the song as best as she could, still flustered heavily by Leon's song of choice. The duet, the final song, ending on this song... There just had to be some motives behind it, there just had to be. Her heart kept on beating, faster and faster as the song continued. "Baby pull me closer..." Another flash of red across her face.

As the song starts up, he hears its familiar melody. Although, Leon isn't so well with hip songs so much, considering he's also an awkward adult when it comes to dancing *Without practice.* Reading the lyrics on screen, he's shaky at first. It's the male's turn, so he has to take the initiative. When he sang the start, he was paying attention to singing along with the music more than the lyrics. ~~Damn, this song has the rising voice thing and Leon is having none of that.~~ Would it really matter if he messed up since it's just one other person in here?

When the lyrics "So baby pull me closer" Came on, Leon went strong... Only to trail off in the middle of the chorus from realizing what it was implying. He squints at the screen, wondering what kind of song he just put himself into. But that doesn't deter the man, as he continued on. The beat isn't bad! He starts to nod his head along with it. "We ain't ever getting older~♪" This lyric sentence seems to resonate with Leon the most—and maybe even Cynthia since she's so set on being young. The Galar champ was having fun! A duet really is amazing! Well, aside from the *What* Song they're singing. Leon thought they were singing about traveling! ~~No, he just never fully caught the lyrics.~~

At the end of the song, the repeated lines was just "We ain't ever getting older" And that really felt good to say! Leon never outwardly say he wants to stay a kid, but he's been called childish enough times that anyone would assume. "Phew! That was great!" Leon said, smiling up to Cynthia. Yeah, there was those awkward lines but surely the Sinnoh champion could push them aside like Leon has. Besides, they would never be together in that way.
Jennifer
*So Leo is still oblivious...* These thoughts would run into her head as Leon continued singing through. Whenever she was to give him a small glance over, he'd be singing confidently without any setbacks. So there was no obvious motive behind the song, Leon clearly thinking that it was a good duet to sing. However, something in her mind was still screaming that Leon purposely chose this song but was this only a truth that was falsely created by her desires? What desires did she even have? Was it the desire for Leon? 

"So baby pull me closer..." The song was about love, which to be fair, most duets were anyway. Most songs these days were about suicide, drugs, money, love or a breakup which was pretty annoying to Cynthia. There wasn't any originality, unless it was gonna be about a stale piece of bread or some old path road. She decided to ignore the meaning of the lyrics, singing to her heart's contents instead. The song was very pleasant, the lyrics and the musical instruments following them. The electric techno at the end of the lyrics were a nice compliment to medium paced love song. Cynthia was also enjoying this moment, having a little duet with Leo was something she'd never imagined becoming true. 

The last lines of the song really made her feel it. She didn't want to become any older than she was at the moment. Although many called her mature, all she want to do was to let loose at times. The title of champion sometimes held her back too much from the things she wanted to do. "Woo! That was really good!" She'd exclaim before sitting back down on the sofa. Although the song was over, the lyrics left a lingering feeling behind. What if... They did become closer... Oh so much drama would occur but... It was only a what if. "Did you have a good time Leo?"
