[Video, action?]
[The familiar sight of Goldenrod's streets is the first thing that's being seen before it shifts to the face of a salazzle before it finally focuses on Speedwagon's back. Where he's putting up what seems to be some sort of paper.
He doesn't look back, but he's well aware of what's going on.]
Thank you, Candalera. [There's a soft noise from the lizard before he speaks again.]
Isn't it funny how when you've been burnt more than once that you finally learn to not touch the iron? Or that you decide to get away from the situation that caused the burn in the first place? [He backs away, there's a clear sign of sorts that's written in pretty scrawly handwriting that says something to the effect of "Team Rocket is the most incompetent criminal gang in existence" with some other details that merely call out how street urchins could steal more competently.
Speedwagon can't help a small sort of a grin as he turns around to address the camera properly, a good stack of paper in his hands.]
It's almost as if there are consequences to actions. As if it's a terrible idea to pretend to be knowledgeable in something when you clearly are not.
[He motions to the side and heads off, the lizard pokemon following after with a bit of stuttering camera feed as he works on putting up another.]
You know, I used to be a criminal back home. Though long since reformed, it's honestly rather pathetic to watch amateurs pretend to be some criminal syndicate when they can't even steal from a child. It's an embarrassment, really. Maybe they should give up on the whole thing and stick to their little... gambling den as that seems far more their speed, don't you think?

Though I still maintain my position on the matter.

When will you be returning? Soon?
[No, she doesn't miss him, whatever gave you that impression?]
no subject
And... probably within the next hour or so? I may take a look at the department store while I'm out here, simply because I doubt I'll be out here again any time soon.
[He knows better! Even if they're all still being weird in public.]
