♪1 | Audio / Action for Rocket HQ

[audio]

Hmm, a Pokémon world? This is certainly something I didn't expect.

[Ren sounds pretty calm and thoughtful. He's been able to think about the situation pretty well for a while. Though his tone will change into slight amusement.]

I should have probably played the games better than just sometimes out of boredom... but I guess that's too late now.

[He'd rather be playing the games at home than be in a suspicious organization, but that's something he keeps to himself. Instead he'll voice some other thoughts.]

So the point is probably the same, right? Collect Pokémon, train them, defeat other trainers and gym leaders? Sounds pretty simple... but I'm aware this won't probably be like it is the games. They're now living creatures, after all.

Anyway, I guess I'll be seeing you around. [A small pause before he continues.] Especially the ladies~

[And the feed clicks off.]

[action]

[If anyone at the Rocket HQ wants to meet up with the newbie, he's either still in his room or wandering around the base where he can. Meet him up wherever you'd like.

He's definitely not wearing his uniform, because it just doesn't suit him.]

I guess you'll just need to hear me perform one day. I can manage even alone.

[Once he gets a saxophone.]

There might not be anyone to catch you there, but there's always someone to help you back on your feet. [Been there, done that? Sort of.]

[meikyuubutterfly]

I guess I could give it a try.

[Said as if she's not interested, much, while in fact she is.]

Says Mister-Know-It-All, while in fact he knows nothing at all. Or maybe they spoiled you.

[saxsongs]

[Of course she's interested... but Ren won't push the subject.]

Spoiled? I wouldn't say that for sure, even if I am from a rich family. [Family issues for the win, right Utau?] I've just been down on a bad road and I was brought back by a magnificent person... so I know.

[School = definitely the adult world. At least almost at Saotome.]

[meikyuubutterfly]

[...oh, he's from a rich family too - no surprise there.]

Well, welcome to the world of crime organizations, no one's going to pull you back to your feet in these. So have fun with that.

[...Except she might do that one day if you need it and if she feels like it. But shhhh, it's a secret. It's not like he seems like a weak person anyway.

Oh, did she just admit that being in a crime organization isn't new to her?]

[saxsongs]

It might be possible. At least if there are people who aren't completely with the system. [As in, those who are willing to help even if told otherwise.] Or if you have good contacts.

[Not that he knew much about criminal organizations, but it never hurt to try a tactic like that... right? At least good contacts would mean less trouble inside the organization.

Though what Utau said did make him curious.]

Hmm, so you're not new to this, miss?

[meikyuubutterfly]

Possible, maybe. Likelihood is another thing. [so good luck with that. Nope, it never hurts to try tactics like that, but it's not like she's going to admit much...

Devilish, almost intimidating, smirk.]

Well, compared to where I came from, this thing is like child's play for someone who's the main star of everything evil back home.

[saxsongs]

Main star, huh. Does it have something to do with the street performance you mentioned?

[Evil songstress... rather fascinating.]

[meikyuubutterfly]

It's got everything to do with that too. And lots of other things, that you wouldn't even believe.

[saxsongs]

If you're saying it like that, you could be talking about something supernatural... but I won't ask.

[meikyuubutterfly]

[Shrug.] Who knows. [Tossing one of her pigtails to the side with an icy hand wave. She won't kiss and tell.] It almost sounds like you believe in supernatural stuff when you put it that way.

[saxsongs]

We're in a Pokémon world. Actually, the whole thing bout being transported to a whole new world is something that makes you believe there might be something supernatural.

[meikyuubutterfly]

[Shrug.] The only thing I'm interested in is how the hell do I get out of here.

[saxsongs]

[He'd say "Well, there's usually a door.", but he feels like this isn't a time for a joke.]

I've heard there isn't one, but who know, they might be lying.

[meikyuubutterfly]

[...So confused at first and about to ask 'How's that possible' or tell him that it's impossible... But then again, she's a girl from a normal world, until Shugo Charas appear... So, saying that something is impossible would be kind of stupid. Besides, all these people wouldn't be there if it was possible to escape, right?]

Is that so? [Shrug.] Well, lies or not - I guess I've got some work to do then.

[saxsongs]

Is going back home that important to you? [It's a friendly question, really, because it is important to him too... he's just decided not to stress about it.]

[meikyuubutterfly]

[Oh, she won't even need words to answer this one! Have one fucking determined look, Ren. Does that answer your question? It should, as it must be one of the most determined looks anyone will ever give you.]

[saxsongs]

[Ren just smiles at that.]

Good to know.

[meikyuubutterfly]

[Hmmm? What was that?]

Because?

[saxsongs]

Ah... I was just thinking that it would be a shame if a flower like you would fall down. [Kind words... but all real.] It's good to know that you have determination.

[meikyuubutterfly]

Falling down is for idiots and losers, who can go home and cry for mommy, and I'm not one of them.

[saxsongs]

I figured, from the look in your eyes.

[meikyuubutterfly]

[Tsk, crying for mommy was never worth it in their household anyways.

W-Wait, did you just say that you've been studying her eyes? Not that it's difficult to see that look from her eyes, but... huff.]

Tsk, maybe you shouldn't stare at them so much.

[saxsongs]

I can't help it, they're pretty. [Have a smile.] Though if it bothers you too much, I'll stop.

[meikyuubutterfly]

So you think eyes that glare daggers at people are pretty? Got it. [Yes, she's always this difficult. Can you handle it?] It doesn't really bother me [in fact, she's staring at him right now to give him loads of time to look at them], it's not like I was a voice actress for more than two years.

[Which is to say that she is used to the attention from people.]

[saxsongs]

[He can't actually argue against that, because Utau's eyes just are that pretty. Maybe he's secretly a masochist?]

Mm, It would be a shame if people would only hear your voice. Such a charming lady should always stand in the spotlight.
