VIDALIA!

Jesus CHRIST. Don't break the pinball machine again. Had to replace the glass AND unfuck whatever y'all did to the paddles or whatever.

[Fixing the pinball machine in the Team Rocket breakroom. She's taken the entire thing apart, pieces scattered to the floor as she disassembles it.]

[She has her back to him, she doesn't see him almost fall over.]

Yeah, someone punched the glass open and jammed all the flippers in rage. So. . . yeah. I'll fix it.

Don't do it IN the base, but yeah. Have fun.

[Passing it back, flipping goggles back up and putting tools away.]

Peace, I gotta fix the fuckin' pinball machine in the breakroom again.

. . .

[She's silent, pulling out tools to take the thing apart, very carefully. When she manages to put it back together exactly, she lifts her goggles.]

It's legit. Just-- be careful with the ammo.

[She flips goggles on, puts her phone's flashlight on and puts the device between her teeth and starts inspecting the thing, thinking.]

I do trust you with it, I don't trust the fucking people who'd sell US a fucking rocket launcher.

. . . Why would anyone trust a rocket grunt with a fuckin' launcher like that? You should let me check it to see if it's legit.

Well, the finance manager's gonna kick your ass if you used Rocket's funds...

[Grunt work is such a pain, but maybe someday she'll get to do something more fun. . . She's eating a yogurt parfait in the break room.]

I'm coldblooded like that.

smiles as i hand y'all a new oc ))

Yeah, maybe we shouldn't. But it'd be more interestin' than listening to everyone bitch and moan about shit that isn't broken being broken.

I wouldn't mind causin' a paradox. . . sounds kinda fun.

(( the irony of the last post is that it gave me an idea for rocket to experiment on vidalia... ))

Half man, half Wurmple... What a cruel existence...

Wouldn't it be fucked up to be a Pokémon in a past life, reincarnate now as a human, and revive your old Pokémon-self out of a fossil?

. . . You worry me.

**but

omfg

[Looking at the cup, back to Ursaluna, and then to Vincent.]

...Smoothie.

[She says simply, before resuming her task of brushing dirt crumbs off of the bear Pokémon, who is relaxed, btu warily eyeing Vincent.]

[Brushing dirt out of her Ursaluna's fur with a brush, the massive Pokemon loves it, and she sips a smoothie as she's doing this activity. Togetic is sitting on top of Ursaluna's head.]

🍬: If someone blocks you please do not use other accounts to try to spy on or talk to those that have you blocked, Thank you.

. . . I revived the fossil I had since childhood, guys.

[There's a massive Ursaluna standing next to her.]

Heh. Yeah. Enjoy your coffee machine. Ping me if someone breaks it again.

[With a hair toss behind her shoulders, she briskly moves out of the room, Togetic floating behind her.

[The coffee was pretty good, maybe it tasted different than the coffee pre-reassembly of the coffee machine.]

Yeah, I'll head down now.

Yeah, my mom was an archaeologist for a long time, gave this to me one day and said "maybe someday, you'll revive it!", and I guess today's the day.

[She swiftly tucks the prized possession away, adjusting her hair under her cap.]

I wonder what'll happen. Kinda excitin'.

[This felt like the start to an adult movie, and not a good one. She laughs a little.]

Is THAT what that was about? Jeez. . .No problem, executive. Just doin' what I can.
