Returning from his morning stroll, Shun steps into the lobby of the Pokemon Center and takes his hat off for a moment so that he can run a hand through his hair.
Shun: I must say, that was an... interesting encounter. I suspect that there is far more to her story than she was willing to reveal to us, however.
Gregson: <Gee, you think so? Most people don't go spilling their biographies only days after meeting someone. Though I can't say I'm in any hurry to find out hers. The more you talk to her, the more I have to deal with her Scizor...>
He continues to grumble to himself, fully aware that Shun lacks Sakura's aptitude for Monese.

-a certain tall redhead is writing furiously in a spiral notebook, a steely gaze on her face. A rather sheepish looking Meowstic is by her side-

Shun notices the redheaded girl, puts his hat back on, and walks over to her.
Shun: Excuse me, but would you happen to be Samantha Muirgheal Kearney?
Gregson eyes her Meowstic curiously.

Samantha: Samantha will do fine. And yes. Who are you?

Shun looks slightly taken aback at Samantha's dishevelled appearance, but recovers himself quickly.
Shun: Shun Hontou. I'm a detective working with the International Police. If you don't mind, I was hoping to get a statement from you regarding the actions of the criminal known as Lazarus.
Gregson tilts his head at the Meowstic.
Gregson: <...Hi.>

Samantha: Hmmm. What sort of statement would that be? That it was the most unpleasant experience of my life, including having my boyfriend die, come back to life, and then breaking up with me?

-Swagger~-

Shun blinks. He's clearly not used to dealing with people in this sort of capacity.
Shun: I didn't mean to... I was only wondering if you had any information that might help lead to his capture. I'm sure you agree that he deserves to be put away, but we can't track him down if we don't know anything about him.
Gregson looks from Clyde to Shun, then back to Clyde, then sighs.
Gregson: <...Sorry about this. I know your trainer's going through a difficult time at the moment, and mine... he only wants to help, he really does. Unfortunately, whilst he's good at solving mysteries, he hasn't figured people out yet.>

-Herb hurts himself again, which does a fair amount of damage-
Herb: <You do realize how Swagger works, right?>

Clyde: <Well, that's OK. Neither has my trainer, really.>
-Samantha still regards Shun with a very cold stare-
Samantha: Something you ought to realize is that this isn't the sort of law-and-order thing that you might be used to. You're not gonna be looking for three clues and then sit in a thinking chair and finally find out where he is and what he wants. He's probably gonna go down at some point, but it's not an arresting thing. It's more of a "throw everyone on the J-Team at him" thing. But if you have any particular questions, I can try to answer them.

Shun's own expression hardens.
Shun: Miss Kearney, I understand that you might be angry, but whatever vigilante-style retribution you are imagining is not an acceptable solution. I know all about the daring rescue your compatriots staged, and whilst their courage deserves praise, the fact remains that they endangered lives in the process - including your own. There are precautions that need to be taken when dealing with these situations, and everything you can tell us helps to minimise the risks. So I want to know everything you can tell me. His appearance. His motivations. His methodology. The resources at his disposal. Anything that you can recall.
Gregson: <...Also did she say something about a zombie boyfriend earlier? Usually I wouldn't mention it but I'm reaching the point where I'm hearing about these things with startling regularity.>

-Samantha frowns-
Samantha: That isn't what I meant. I'm not suggesting vigilantism, but this is some...well, odd stuff. I don't know how handy Interpol would be.
-she shrugs-
Samantha: At any rate, his appearance is...well, like this guy:
-she searches for a J-Team pic and points to Munn-
Samantha: Except bald, and silvery. His motivations...well, ask Hudson , he'd know. Methodology...well, when he kidnapped me, he attached me to this nightmare machine with a Musharna in it...
-she purses her lips-
Samantha: I didn't like it.
Clyde: <Former boyfriend. Apparently it wasn't working out, but that was news to her.>

By now, Shun has pulled out his notebook and is scribbling with remarkable speed.
Shun: Nightmare machine? Could you elaborate?
Gregson: <Huh. That's interesting and all, but it was really the "zombie" part of that question I was more curious about. Not that it's important, thinking about it. I just wanted to make sure I'd heard her correctly.>
