sixteenth bubble; text/action for pewter. BACKDATED TO THE 2ND/yesterday.

no :(
this is entirely unfair!
ive been waiting to go to the museum in pewter ever since john told me about it on day one
and then jade gave me that book for christmas
and i planned it all out so i could come and see it after all of the fossil things!
this was the plan!
to go to the museum!

this is so stupid!!

by the way the museum was robbed i guess
and now its closed
and i cant go in

kanaya will you go to mt moon with me i guess we can at least TRY to salvage this

people who rob museums are the worst

[ After sulkily lurking outside of the museum for a little while in the morning, Aradia will be drawing up a plan of attack for Mt. Moon, easily found either at the inn or on a bench outside or at a cafe somewhere. She is not the happiest of campers for once, although her mood will not last long at all. As ever she'll match whatever mode of reply she gets. ]

oh?
what tipped you off? :o

its hard to say
it could cause problems for the rockets but
honestly
the ones who arent outted are at least playing nice half of the time if not more
if youre known to be a member of a criminal team would you bother with even that much?

Well, among other things... though I can't say there are any rules that this place seems willing to break thus far, I did notice something curious when talking to someone about the theory of infinite parallel words. With all the people that have come and gone multiple times, you'd think that there would be more variation in the worlds that they came from, but more often than not, they're merely from a different point on the same timeline.

I know from my own experience in running into someone from a world similar to mine but with a very notable point of divergence that this place isn't incapable of drawing from very similar versions of a world, but it seems strange that there are less instances of significant divergence than one would expect.

...ah, yes, that's quite true. Furthermore, I'd imagine the ones that have the intelligence to play nice are the ones who are actually competent...

that is odd
and something i have no explanation for
except that all timelines seem to have that level of coincidence
time is a tricky thing you know

yes exactly
there is absolutely no reason to give anyone a reason not to play nice i think
thats just the way i see of looking at it
also i expect some people might get upset with rockets who are more or less just pressganged into it by the world

What do you mean by that? I'll admit I'm not exactly an expert on the subject, but like I said, I'd think there would be more variation based on the little I've heard about it.

There's that too, I suppose. I do think it's better to keep the information under wraps either way, as it gives us the extra advantage - even if it's just to keep tabs on who's likely to be in or not.

timelines seem a lot more chaotic than they actually are
everything that has happened was always going to happen
and everything that will happen was always going to happen
that sort of thing
i'm not privy to the flow of time here, but maybe it runs much the same way

basically, yes.
right now, they don't know we know, for sure.
and i am always in favor of being on the side with more information, to be honest.
it makes things easier

There apparently is a legendary Pokemon that controls time, so even if time wouldn't otherwise function that way, that Pokemon may be ensuring that it does, for whatever reason.

Yes, it certainly does. Granted, it can't exactly be said that we have more information... we just happen to know some things that they do without them really knowing.

How did you come by this information, anyway? Is it from someone who's in the organization against their will?

those who control the flow of time have reasons that are often inscrutable to others
and have to do with the flow of time itself
at least thats what i have found

thats something to start off of anyway!!
we can keep an eye out and if we notice any members i suppose keep a closer eye out
perhaps we will learn something of interest

by two persons who were in the organization against their will actually
they both told me parts of this of their own choosing
i hadnt suspected either honestly

Well, you'd know more about that than I would. Though, I have to wonder how similar this being would be to you or anyone else with time-related abilities from your world? I want to assume that things like the operation of time would function somewhat similarly across universes, but that may not be the case.

Most certainly. Even if it takes them some time to do anything terribly underhanded, they do have more resources available to them than we do.

That makes sense. I can't imagine anyone who had anything resembling loyalty to the organization to give this kind of information out so freely.

wed need more details to say specifically
if we had time details i could pull dave and we could discuss it
but i dont think either of us has seen anything particularly notable in that sense as of yet

it would be nice if we had an organization backing us admittedly

definitely not
it would be a questionable move
although it could always be that loyalty to the organization came second to loyalty to someone else

If we were even in the same region as that Pokemon, that would likely be a bit more feasible. This region does have Celebi, but that's not quite the same.

Indeed it would, but I'd rather not have to put up with being beholden to... well, that

Oh, certainly - and really, that "someone else" could easily always be one's self.

perhaps someday we can prevail upon the leaders to allow us to have a field trip
if
theyre the ones keeping us here...

yep
no interest in having an obligation to team rocket
or
well
any other team ive heard of

ngl i feel like that is a common loyalty priority

They do seem like our best bets to seeing other parts of the world, but I've heard things that make me rather doubt that they're in charge of our actual presence here.

...what, are there others?

No, it's very true. Of course, it's not like I can blame anyone for that.

what things would those be :o
but yes i was referring to keeping us in johto and kanto
regionally locking us i mean

i suppose only that vague mention of an opposing team formed from our numbers
so not really

i cant really either!
although if i had to choose sides i am not sure "my side" would be the one i would be on

I've only heard this secondhand, but apparently some gym leaders aren't terribly fond of our presence here... though, I may have misinterpreted you. If they don't want us here, they may be trying to contain us.

So I see. That's good, at least; one criminal team seems to be quite enough for this place.

Why do you say that? I'm always sure to make sure I'm on my side.

thats what i meant yeah
about the containment

yes i dont think we need to add more spoons into the kettle
or however that goes

in certain cases it would be more accurate to say i am on the side of time

Honestly, I hope that isn't the case, if only because I'd rather not have my progress impeded by people like Whitney.

Precisely. The last thing we need is turf wars, of all things.

I'm... not entirely sure what you mean by that.

...okay yeah
that would be unfortunate

i mean that as the maid of time
i tend to be more concerned with the timeline than with sides i guess

Deeply so.

Ah, right, of course. Honestly, I've always found it a bit strange that while you seem to have the of power to manipulate time, but you're ultimately subservient to it.

i think a lot of powers work that way when push comes to the shove
at least
in certain places and points of view! :)

Now that I'm thinking about it, I can actually see where you're coming from... though, I'm definitely coming from a different perspective than you. We magi aren't really content with being subservient to the laws that govern our world, you see.

theres nothing wrong with that either!
there was a time i wasnt okay with it at all

What made you change your mind? If it isn't too personal, of course.

well i suppose i finally saw the bigger picture
that was back when i was still dead
and also a robot
and i thought that would be forever and that everything was destined to go wrong and end badly
but we got beyond that
i think that the flow of time isnt a bad thing :)

Ah, I see. Well, I'd imagine that would change anyone's perspective.

[HE STILL DOESN'T ENTIRELY KNOW HOW TO REACT TO HER BACKSTORY'S... EVERYTHING]

Honestly, I've never taken much issue with that aspect of it, either.

[ DON'T BOTHER TO QUESTION ANYTHING EVER, KAYNETH. ]

well youre a pretty reasonable person
so im not surprised!!
