Festivities were a part of everyday life that Ash still had to get used to. Well, she didn't have to get used to them, but if the people in Jade insisted on having them then she would prefer to. Loud music and laughter filled the air of the random downtown tavern she and Keiko were currently standing in. The two of them were overlooking the main floor of the establishment from its second, a wooden railing allowed Ash a space to put her elbows on as she took a sip out of the alcohol that couldn't even get her drunk thanks to that Iron Stomach trait.
The noisy ambiance and overall joyful nature of everything happening here were downright annoying considering how much stuff Ash had on her mind. Granted, Ash and the group didn't have to come to a conclusion on which plan they wanted to pursue just yet, but because it felt like this struggle could finally come to an end, it was all Ash could think about.
