Our avatars are in a room together

She will. She doesn't gain anything by getting us killed.

Besides, we're friends, sort of. It's complicated.

People will always see themselves as the hero of their own story, for the most part...

(Marvellous...)

I see.

"In any case, the LEP have their bomb. We have to move now...or we're all dead."

You don't have to like it, but you not liking the truth doesn't make it any less true.

She'll keep us alive at any cost because that's what she wants, believe it or not. -Shoots Michael a look- Why do you think she healed me after you tried to kill me, even when I asked her to stop?

And if she wants me, then she'll have to save all of you. Because if she lets everyone else die, then I won't have much reason to stick around myself.

She knows that. She's not stupid. We can trust Majora... for this at least. Mutual need's the strongest bond there is.

I'm ready, I guess... feels weird going in with a gun.

Main Room

(nods to Micheal) Alright. I guess I can work on the blueprints in the morning.

(Looks around for the rating button on Name Journal. If it's there, Lune attempts to give this cat picture 3.5 stars out of 5.)

-The gnoll switches his attention between Cloud and Micheal-

-He doesn't quite grasp the situation, but something serious must be happening-

Ohh yeah.

(momentarily fiddles with the Team Skull chain attached to his top)

Well - what about if you're, like, really just into making money? Through illegal means. That's not exactly something you can style like a heroic crusade, but...

-there is only a like or dislike button-

Everyone has their job. Everyone has their hobby.

Everyone has things they enjoy.

Why should the world criticize them after all.

-Is anyone in the main room right now?-

-Cloud, Artemis, Michael, gnoll guy-

-Cloud's wearing a helmet right now though-

Mm, true.

(reclines in his chair)

It's just that I've sorta been looking at crime history. Like, I sorta want to become a detective after my Trainer career's done, and this is something I've been pointed to.

I've noticed that a lot of Teams justify their actions with good intentions... and then there's Team Rocket. Er - there was Team Rocket.

Did they do it for Greed?

"Yeah, Michael, you gotta learn to trust your friends more."

-Majora appears next to Michael, lounging in midair as if on a couch-

Cloud, all I'm concerned about is stopping that bomb.

I'll go along with whatever it is you've planned, alright?

(To Majora) Honestly, I'd consider you as an acquaintance, nothing more, nothing less.

(To Artemis) So what's my role in this plan of yours, then?

(To Lune)

Here's the chip that contains the data on Arsenal. (Gives her said chip) It might make things a little easier on the development side of things.

-Kaine is in the main room-

-Just wrapped up in his cape-

Oh, yeah, basically. They ran a warehouse right under a casino, held Silph Headquarters hostage in broad daylight, forced some Pokémon to evolve with radio waves to turn a profit... you can't really justify any of that with something like "I want to undo this drought" or "I want to make a world where humans and Pokémon are equal."

Heck - maybe they realized they just didn't need to at all.

"Ouch. You've wounded me."

"You have combat training. You are to cover Mr. Strife on the chance they discover what we've done. On that note..."

-Hands Cloud a small case, small enough to fit in one's pocket-

"Some tools, mostly ones I used to dismantle our current LEP technology. The helmet used magnetic fasteners, if one pole doesn't budge them, use the other and turn."

"... Hmph! That's stupid, and I don't have to believe it! Mrgh!"

-Nods-

What's — what's my cover story? I mean, they'll probably wonder why I waited two weeks to report back in.

That doesn't change the truth but- y'know. You do you. I'm not saying you should stop.

Like I said- I like it.

Some people are just assholes because they feel like they can be.

They're powerful- and they feel entitled to be able to give not a single flying shit.

(nods)

In that case, I'll get myself some combat equipment.

Heh, well - they got their butts kicked by a bunch of Champions. Like me!

"A mixup during the change of command. You were originally stationed elsewhere and relocated here. They'll be too preoccupied with moving the bomb and watching for 'humans' to check in an expedient manner."

Main Room

(gives the cat picture a Like and moves onto another blog)

Thanks, Micheal! (plugs the chip into her laptop)
