Rocket Introductions

Summary: Rocket 101

Rating: PG-13 for language

Log:



Jack's on one of his semi-regular visits to HQ anyway. He's been a busy guy, stealing all over Johto for the glory of the organization. And scouting out locations for a proper personal base, but that's not proving as easy as he'd thought. Whatever, it's not like he's on some time crunch.

And hey, as it turns out...there's a new recruit that's just joined the ranks, and it sounds like it's someone like him. Not native. Maybe he'll be lucky. Maybe he'll finally have someone around here with a couple of brain cells to rub together. Or that he can easily bribe and charm into following him directly. It's worked out pretty okay so far...

But he's quick to volunteer to show the newbie around, show'em the ropes. Look at what a helpful, eager Rocket he is! Good old Jack, always reliable, just looking out for what's best for all of Team Rocket....

"Yo! You the fresh meat?"

He assumes the young woman hanging around after orientation is who he's looking for. She looks...fine? It's hard to tell just by looking at a person.

"I get two weeks..?"

Apparently, this is spectacular news. Spectacular news that has her nodding furiously. "Well...a start is a start then! And if I've got two weeks then that's a pretty good one, for picking up the basics!" She rubs the back of her head. "....For now at least, getting my footing seems more important than knowing an end-goal right away... ...Until a few hours ago, I was pretty sure I was already at the 'end'..!" she laughs, only to cut herself short on that. "Erm. That's not really important either though."

Touring, pokemon lessons, and...pickpocketing...is better a conversation topic.
