003. Audio/also one other thing
[AUDIO]
[Well, the last month has seen Cobra attacking a bunch of children in the name of...taking over the world or something (and apparently plotting something else, if his last post over the Rocket frequency is any indication), one of the new scientists attempting to vivisect a Voltorb and threatening to blow up the lab in the process, Gorthan being a goddamn alien, and some member of the organization apparently losing his mind and going on an anonymous rampage the likes of which are rarely seen outside of...I don't know, 4chan.
Between all of this, March has pretty much confirmed to Descole that he is the only sane man in Team Rocket, and come the full moon he won't be surprised if everyone else in the base mutates into something horrific and develops an unholy craving for chicken hearts.
Today, he's trying to get his mind off of it; he's not exactly in the mood to put on much of a performance for the camera, so you can have an audio post instead today, Johto. His tone is clipped and a bit annoyed; this is due to the fact that he's had this damn...egg-thing for over a month now and he's trying to resist the urge to punt it across the room, but no one really needs to know that right now.]
For those creatures that are supposed to evolve through...I don't know, friendship or happiness or whatever you feel like calling it - how can you tell if these things even like you, much less are close to evolving?
[PRIVATE TEXT TO EMMY ALTAVA]
I see your "friend" struck a second time.
We need to talk. Are you in town?

[audio]
[...wait wait what]
I'm sorry, did you just... "somepony"?
[audio]
[sorry man, not even people trying to help you are normal.]
[audio]
what is his life]
A bit of an odd substitution, I think, but if you say so...
[audio]
[audio]
Not all of us are the sort to protect others, you know.
[And that much is true; Descole has never been the sort to leap to the defense of other people, especially not at detriment to himself - at the same time, if he thinks about it...]
Although I suppose I can see where you're coming from. In a way.
[...he certainly is one to stop at nothing to accomplish things, if he wants something badly enough.]
[audio]
Don't you have any friends...?
[audio]
That's a bit of an intrusive question, don't you think?
[audio]
You have to treat Pokemon like you treat your friends... so if you don't have any friends, then no wonder you're confused...
[audio]
Not that the eyerolling can be seen through the Gear because lol audio. And even if it could...lol mask...
...there's eyerolling going on, okay]
Yes, well. Let me get right on changing my ways, then.
[audio]
[Hm. Maybe...]
Maybe... if you wanted to, that is... I could... be your friend?
[audio]
...you're serious, aren't you.
[...
... ... ...DO THEY NOT HAVE SARCASM IN PONYLAND]
[audio]
I-I understand if you wouldn't want to, but, um, it's sad if you don't have a friend... I think we all could use a little kindness... And me helping you could help your Pokemon... um.
[audio]
...wait, wait. That last part. Okay. Hang on, that's relevant to his interests.]
Well! If you put it that way...
[Ugh, can't he just get you to raise this thing? No, seriously, they're murder-blimps once they evolve, it's just getting them to evolve...]
[audio]
[Oh em gee, I made a friend. I feel so proud ;; ]
[audio]
Jean Descole - it's a pleasure, then.
[audio]
It's nice to meet you too... S-so, you can call me anytime if you want... because that's what friends do.
