[Steven grins when he sees that 'annoy Hades' is in the pro column, before standing up to take the chalk from Hythlodaeus.]
You're right. There are a few more.
[He writes down 'Mandatory missions' in the negative column.]
Occasionally the admins send out an order we can't refuse. They haven't really done this to us since I joined [the instructions to 'make an example' out of Kurt during the revenge attack didn't count, because the rest of the mission had been Steven's thing] but I'm told it happens.
The quota's already under 'catching pokemon,' although I should mention that if you've got a full time position with them--and I think we could present your labwork as that to the admins--you don't have to submit pokemon for your quota.
And-- hm.
[After a moment he adds three more things to the negative side: 'easier to join than to leave' and 'incompetent native Rockets' and 'stupid uniforms.'
But then he goes over to the positive side and jots down a few more things: 'opportunity to make new friends (and annoy them)' and 'actually finding out what Hades does all day' and 'Hades can't hide by going to the Rocket Dorms/secret base' and 'Steven getting credit for bringing in a new recruit.']
You know, [he says turning back to Hythlodaeus with a wicked look in his eye,] it would definitely send Hades the message that no matter where he goes, you'll always be able to find him.
