006. [Text/Action for Goldenrod City/Northern Route 34]
[TEXT]
While I suppose it matters relatively little in the long run, morbid curiosity compels -
Exactly how driven are most of you to complete this 'challenge' that's been set forth, and what drives you to complete it in the first place - what do you have to return to?
[ACTION]
[A short time after that text hits the network, Kimblee can be found just outside of Goldenrod City, on the northern end of Route 34; if the question is at all related to anything he's currently doing, it's not obvious in the least...outside of the part where maybe the Pokémon he's dealing with might be making him not want to live on this planet anymore.
Basically, his Yanma evolved.
Fortunately for him, the hellbug she has become seems to have retained her personality despite the evolution. She's honestly always been more like a dog than an oversized dragonfly; now she's just...well, a sufficiently larger dog. As such, she's bringing Kimblee a decently-sized stick to toss off into the nearby cluster of trees for her to chase; Kimblee is complying with her, albeit warily - he's never had much of a poker face, and while he seems generally calm, it's reasonably plain that he's half-expecting her to do something odd.
Like snap his arm off to get at the stick. Or maybe bring him back a person, or something.
Either way, he's clearly wondering what the hell his life has become. Good afternoon, Johto, it's been a while.]

Yet you have a nine-year-old child?
[text]
oh
er
I never said I was their father! I'm just taking care of them.
[text]
...Well! The amount of responsibility that still requires aside, I have to say that's much better than the alternative.
[text]
haha yeah, it probably is!
... still, they're like family to me.

CROW NO YOU'RE A TERRIBLE JUDGE OF CHARACTER STOP THAT]their parents died and they had nowhere to go, so I took them in.

...as long as he doesn't have orders to kill you, you should be fine.]
How admirable; I suppose with that in mind, you really do have a good reason to hope this whatnot with the badges works out.
[text]
... here's hoping Team Rocket never got his name down as "that guys who took part in the HQ raid". Or "that guy who was messing with our plans on the train". Or... you get the picture.]
sure do! I haven't seen those brats in over a year and a half, after all.
[text]
How far have you gotten with this challenge, then, in that time?
[text]
not as far as I could've-- I've got 7 badges so far, though I'm pretty sure I would've gotten them faster if we weren't backtracking to pick someone up, settling down in one city for a longer time and shit like that.
