021. [Anonymous Text + Images/Locked Audio - Rocket Frequency]

[ANONYMOUS TEXT + IMAGES]

[Kimblee hasn't been back in Goldenrod City for very long; he's well aware of the attack on the Tower, however - his contacts here have made him very aware of that.

He's well aware that he shouldn't do anything rash; however, his pride does have quite the tendency to get involved in decisions where it really has no goddamn business being, and as such, an anonymous text goes out over the network.

Seth's clearly making a reappearance tonight.]


It seems some of you have been enjoying yourselves lately.

[There's no clarification regarding exactly what he's talking about; however, there are, as usual, pictures accompanying the text.

The first is par for the course, as Seth goes; a set of six Pokéballs held in gloved hands, on chest-level with the person holding them - his face isn't visible, but the red R insignia on his uniform clearly is, even in the dim light of the room.

The next three photographs are decidedly more straightforward, in terms of what he's trying to get across; each image contains two Pokémon in heavy, reinforced cages set up in front of a black backdrop of some sort - birds, all of them. They seem alive, though "unharmed" is a bit of a stretch; they seem to have been roughed up quite a bit.

More text, clearly continuing on from the first line.]


So have I.

[One more image follows, similar to the first - though instead of Pokéballs clasped in his hands, he has a white card pinned between his index and middle fingers, the words written on it scrawled out in thick, blocky lettering as though someone had gone over the words repeatedly, obscuring any sort of distinctive handwriting for the sake of making them far less identifiable.

TELL FALKNER THAT SETH SAYS HELLO.]



[AUDIO / PRIVATE - TEAM ROCKET FREQUENCY]

[And a few hours later, once Kimblee has decided he's done instigating for the day, the Rockets will be granted something decidedly more sane and far less...uh, directly ominous.]

A good evening to all of you; I hope that it finds you well.

[Again, the voice over the locked Rocket frequency tonight is calm and possibly surprisingly pleasant, especially given what one usually encounters around the base in Goldenrod; the person speaking is clearly a bit soft-spoken and his voice is gentle in a bit of a high-pitched sort of way, but there's firmness behind his words. Authority. A bit of arrogance, perhaps, but it's just as easily taken for confidence.]

My name is Solf J Kimblee; I hold the rank of Beta in this organization. It's been quite some time since I've been in our beloved hometown; regrettably, business has kept me away, but it won't be that way for much longer.

To those new to the organization - I welcome you to Johto, and I would like to take the time to get to know you personally. I can offer you work and opportunities, should you require direction; should you just want someone to speak to regarding your sudden arrival in this world, I would like to help you - I can't promise you answers, but I can offer my assistance in any way I can. For those who have arrived recently, but haven't met with me personally yet, I would like to invite you to do so as well.

And those of you who have been here for a while - I'll expect some sort of proper report from at least one of you, regarding the incident that occurred last week. Many of you know exactly how well I adhere to Equivalent Exchange; offer me valid information and I'll gladly reward you.

I look forward to speaking with all of you; I would prefer meeting in person, simply know where you are and I'll gladly meet you.

Until then~

Why wouldn't I be able to uphold my convictions? I've never wavered in the face of a challenge like this before-are you simply trying to throw me off guard?

[...maybe it was a little defensive, but that was such a bizarre question that he couldn't help but be annoyed by it.]

I figured I wouldn't, after seeing what this world consists of. I am no stranger to being in command of subordinates.

And I would not mind having someone supervise at all. We wouldn't want to get too carried away, would we?

I think that Cobra Commander thought the same thing.

I think I've gotten plenty of answers from the other members of the organization, but I assure you that, should I have any other questions, you will be the first person I ask.

It seems designed to make me stop and pointlessly question myself rather than doing anything productive here, regardless of what you actually intended by it.

Why would you say that? I don't find anything particularly strange about Froslass.

[Now's around the time he'll be rubbing his hands in interest.]

Oh yes, Kato's spoken of you a few times. He has gained some rather...interesting Pokemon from you. [Yes, we'll go with "interesting."] But in terms of items, Metal Coats happen to be my favorite to work with. I'm honestly surprised that it only works on two species. It's such a useful concept to encase a creature in steel.

[ They will have the classiest lunch in Johto history. The more morally not good the characters are (can't use bad because Kimblee at least has values), the fantastically classier the lunch will be! Thank god she doesn't have Gluttony here with her. ]

Yes. It was compromised, to some extent. It's attempts to reclaim the tower ended in failure, however, its attack seemed to end with a draw and some mild damage to the radio tower that requires closure. [ Mostly because she home aloned the fuck out of the radio tower for shits and giggles. ] Mostly of the explosives and short fuse, variety. [ IS THAT CONSIDERED GOOD NEWS WITH KIMBLEE? She legit doesn't know... ]

[

Her eyes briefly pop open in some weird version of being starstruck. One of the Rocket Officials is going to talk to me! The little Momos, who, as of right now, are working double time, briefly panic and just light their computers on fire. As a result, she forgets that the naming scheme in Johto is... somehow different and answers the question like she would back home. ]


Hinamori Momo! Lieutenant of Squad Five! [ Yep. This girl is a lieutenant. Just wrap your head around that. ]

[While Ren hadn't really been interested in battling, he had gotten some sort of a feeling for it as he realized he would definitely need strong Pokémon later in his Pokémon fight. It still wasn't his favorite activity, but it was still something to chase out boredom.]

I have some interest in Kanto, as it's a place I'm familiar with because of the games we had back home, but I think I want to see what Johto looks like before I go there.

It's not too bad. The training is pretty easy, if you set your mind to it. [Which he's used to doing, really.]
enjoymyatelier: why you gotta do this claymore shit (god fuckin damnit einzbern)

Yes, it did.

[do you think this is a fucking game]

You've seen it in a handful of conversations and one face to face meeting that was a fight? I have to wonder just what you think you've seen in all that.

[Unless he's been watching all her unfiltered conversations...in which case she's locking everything down from now on.]

A disorganized group is a bigger threat than an organized one. An organized one has clear cut plans, a disorganized one rarely does. Learning what they can do should be a high priority on the list of anyone who might have to deal with them someday.

Ah, yes!

[ Whoops, did they get carried away? Time to snap back to attention.

Scanty's been out and about more than Kneesocks has, so she speaks for the both of them. And, well. Her experiences have been mixed, to say the least, but...wow, this is surreal. Prior to coming here she's never had a superior actually ask for her opinion. ]


It is without a doubt the finest element this country has to offer! The training served as an excellent foundation, and the attention paid to even the most lowly of new recruits quite gratifying....assuming we may be so bold.

The Pokémon with me beat the Pokémon with him, but he got away before I could beat him.

[Go and ask Cobra about the time that his Level 100s were defeated by a kid's Level 60s and Cobra ended up fleeing with honey all over his face. I'm sure he'd love to have someone to rant at~.

And Apollo you probably shouldn't advertise to the bad guys that you're an enemy, especially to a competent one whose face you haven't seen but are showing yours to.]
