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~

[ Far be it from the Demon Sisters to ever ask for assistance. They're more than adequately equipped to handle whatever the world tosses their way, no matter what world they find themselves in!

But when a professed higher-up in their organization explicitly requests to make their acquaintance, well. It wouldn't do for other recruits to mistakenly leave a better impression upon their superior.

Kimblee will be greeted with the sight of two young women standing at attention against a wall, identical Houndours at their sides (sitting, but with perfect posture). The symmetry here is kind of ridiculous, really. ]


Excuse us! You requested an audience, sir?

[The timing of the messages doesn't sit well with Logan. The timing of Kimblee's return doesn't sit well either. It seems too obvious but... What if Kimblee really is Seth? It's not something he's going to pursue now though, there are other things to focus on.]

I would offer to meet with you, but unfortunately I'm not in Goldenrod at the moment.

[He also has no idea what you're talking about regarding the "incident." So why is he calling?]

It's been quite some time since we last spoke. I trust you're doing well?

[...Just to chat, clearly.]

Incident? What incident?

[Due to being way over there in Vermilion and not speaking to any Rockets lately, Cobra has no idea what's going on.]

Ah, yes we are. We're waiting for it to get a little warmer before travelling to Cianwood. It's nice to take a break from travelling though.

[A pause. Well, this is awkward for no real reason!]

May I ask what incident you were referring to?
decrees: (EXPLAIN ♛ the ends justify the means)

[personal profile] decrees 2013-01-23 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
I see. Good to know.

[Another pause.]

What have you been doing lately?

[Why is this so awkward??]

[Not... at... all.... orz]

I see. Yes, we survived the storms and... whatever happened with those golems.

[He's still not clear on that. But apparently it was a thing!]

Ah, thank you for the gift, by the way. I appreciate it.

[Money is always a good thing to have, after all!]

One of your friends is making a spectacle of himself on the network.

You were "made" to return indoors?

[...Does he even want to know...?]
decrees: (HEADTILT ♛ likes: executions??)

[personal profile] decrees 2013-01-23 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
What other tactic? Why would you even try to fight those things in the first place?

[Well, he can certainly see why Archer didn't approve, at any rate...

...Then again, beating up trolls with hammers. Maybe he isn't one to talk.]

You... knocked it over...

[.................Kimblee...]

Why am I not surprised?

[Alright, that might have amused him, hang on.]

You said "we." I take it Archer wasn't helping you with that?

...Well, I can't say I completely disapprove; it sounds like you had fun, at least.
