betheman: (NOT GONNA LIKE WHAT'S BEHIND ME)
[personal profile] betheman
[The one who opens the video post- large enough to be a grown man, but somehow not quite that old in the face (makes sense, he's 14)- frankly looks like a mess.

The background of the Pokemon Center is clear- and if one can make out the details, it may well be the Goldenrod one- as while the light approaches evening, the buildings and bustle can somewhat be seen through windows in the background.

The trainer's clothes are covered in dirt, and ash. His hair- normally styled into a pompadour- is disheveled at best and the style is holding on by a thread. Frankly, he looks tired.

(In comparison, the mawile curiously peering from his arms looks as fresh-faced as a daisy.)
]

...Greetings, [he starts, voice deep, gruff, and frankly awkward. This isn't...really the kind of call he's familiar with making?] I, the man Gongenzaka, wish to humbly ask assistance; I have been told, others have arrived here, with no warning- however! I, the man Gongenzaka, must then ask...are those others so content with crime that they would accept such a fate!? To wake in the rooms of such a group, and simply turn to those ways would be UNACCEPTABLE..!!

More than this, though kind, the 'Officer Jennies' here claimed there was no reason or truth to my words- to awaken within this 'Team Rocket' unthinkable, I was told..! I the man Gongenzaka, cannot believe that so many others would have come in this way, for them to know this much, and not know of where they awoke!

[For someone humbly asking for assistance, he's gone into a bit of a rant- a panicked one, mind, but a rant all the same. The boy bows his head steeply, nearly squashing the mawile in the process as she scrambles out of the way.]

I, the man Gongenzaka, ask you...what Is this place?

[What he's not asking: how does he replace his clothes with nothing to pay for it, because boy! Those grunts did not appreciate him skipping even before training.]

[The video opens with a rather flustered looking Speedwagon, which in reality means his hair looks more a mess than usual but at least he's wearing something less than his normal layers. If you count a half-buttoned and sleeves rolled up white dress shirt and slacks as less than normal.

Either way, he's casually sitting next to what seems to be... well, that's some sort of Rocket grunt that has something stuffed in their mouth (fabric, at least) with a tie wrapped around their wrists and a far too amused salazzle with claws dug into at least the fabric of the poor bastard's legs. They're going nowhere.]


You know, I thought that this would become something far more mundane and akin to what I was used to back home. But instead it's become an utter annoyance of an at least once a day type of thing. You would think they would learn, but evidently not. [He huffs softly to himself as he moves to stand, using one hand to hold the 'gear and the other to wipe his slacks clean and fix his hat.]

At least Candalera seems quite keen on causing them pain, but I wouldn't expect any less from her at this point. Now, would anyone happen to have any suggestions on... some sort of warning system? I don't mind if they think it's funny to try and get the jump on me going into town, but coming close to the house...

Well, let's say it's better for everyone involved if I catch them before someone like, say, Jonathan does.

[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?

I'm wondering if other people are good at coming with answers on this because I'm kinda not. I'm really not, actually.

But what should you do if you catch "feelings" for someone. Who you know is in a relationship with someone else, but you also think you have "feelings" for that person too? And another person? You think you do?

But like, also it's you realizing that this means you're not straight.
