Twenty-Third Sacrament: Unity
Who: Walter, Diana, Jinx and Vanitas
Where: Fuchsia City
When: 5th March
Summary: Four traitors uniting to form something new...?
Rating: T for mentions of Pokemon abuse?
Log:
The meeting place, arranged by simple, cryptic letters ferried by Pokemon or sent over Gears, was a small, hole-in-wall cafe, off the beaten path nearby the studio. The Purrloin's Paw was a humble place, most often sought by locals as the Starmiebucks around the corner attracted the eyes of tourists and the famous/infamous workers of the studio. On this particular day it was extremely empty, with only two employees behind the counter, quietly talking to themselves.
Walter was already inside, seated at a corner table that let him see the doorway but hid him from direct line of sight. Assumption was sat at his side, club on his lap as he ate a poffin. Gloom was in his shadow, waiting for his command. Once everyone was gathered and general polite welcomes had been made, she had her orders; hypnotise the workers into a deep sleep and lock the door, flipping the sign to 'Sorry! We're Closed!' Then, they could discuss their 'problem' with Team Rocket.
Once they had their chats and made their preparations, they'd simply stroll out into the sunshine, leaving the cafe and it's sleeping workers as it was...possibly minus some treats from the display counter.
[ While this is made for the group to talk as one, feel free to start threads between characters privately to catch up and assume that there's some casual banter going on too! ]

At the thanks, Walter lowered his head and his gaze, looking at the table. He didn't feel like he deserved those words. He hadn't done anything for Vanitas. But they agreed on one thing. "Pokemon truly are a blessing. They don't... heal, everything. Or change what we were, or are. But they make it better."
Assumption wagged his tail at the comments, leaning on Walter with a happy sound. From the shadows, Gloom slipped forward to hug Walter around his shoulders. He turned his head to her with a faint smile, lifting a hand to pet her head.

This really was a far cry from their first meeting, wasn't it?
Veritas shuffles back over to him and the young man doesn't hesitate to kneel down and scoop her up, easily tucking her into his jacket where she's safe and warm. The Cubone cuddles against him, eyes closed contently now that she was back with her trainer.
"Once we're all in Lavender Town, do...could we train together?" he asked, gaze still on Veritas even as he straightened up, an arm underneath the Pokemon in his jacket to steady her. "I don't have the badges that you guys do and I want to make sure I can keep up when everything hits the fan."

It really was so strange, just how different this was from their first meeting. He still didn't want to have certain Pokemon of his out around Vanitas, such as Joseph, but... he wasn't adverse to Vanitas' company entirely. It was a strange new experience, to be sat with someone who had attempted to hurt him but to not want to immediately lash at them or push him away.
"...Yes. I would like that." He'd need to make sure not to bring Robbie, but he had other Pokemon that required the training. It would be beneficial, both to hone his own training and his Pokemon's experience, but also to compare their battling techniques. He wanted to learn more, and there was only so much he could learn from the trainers of this world.
"Do you intend to seek the badges as well?"
no subject
Or worlds.
"Eventually, yeah," he said with a nod, a slight grin touching his lips. "I didn't get very far in Johto so I may as well try and sweep things here in Kanto. If nothing else I want to make use of the HMs they allow you to use freely."

"That is wise. And if you defeat all the gyms in one region, they will give you a Key Stone; it facilitates a unique power that I have been testing in my gym battles in this region, called Mega Evolution. You may wish to look into it. Only certain Pokemon can use it."
At his side, Assumption nodded eagerly. Yes! Mega Evolution looked like a lot of fun, and it was very powerful.
