[Keeping Up With the Next Generation: An All-Purpose Guide to All That Stuff Those Kids From Other Regions Keep Talking About.

That's the name of the book Kris is reading in some weird and strangely specific library. Some other hits she sees in the shelves are How (Not) to Deal With Meddling Kids in Caps, It's Not All Black and White, The Series of Guys That Cramped My Style And Messed With My Social Life, and Hot Enemy Problems: Part 1.

But it's a large library. A huge library. The possibilities are endless... and very specifically tailored to everyone's needs.]

[As rude as always. But he'll snap shut quick, perusing the fossil books once again. And evolution stones. He likes them a lot. But he's not quiet for too long.]

... They were only ideas.

Yeah, and they were dumb ideas.

[Yes, Red is bad and should feel bad. Mission accomplished for the day. Green returns to his own book - oh right, he dropped it like an idiot. He'll just pull out a random one and pretend to look busy with it.

...And now that uncomfortable silence. He barely knows what to do with Red anymore.] Whatever.

So you'll try them? [He's the most hopeful. Optimistic and upbeat! Come on, icing the volcano still sounds awesome.]

No.

[Shot down. And even if they could, they'd probably get in trouble with the law for, you know, trying to alter an entire volcano and probably the rest of the island with it. Don't you at least need a permit for that?]

[Who needs a permit when you're the Champion?]

... You don't have any better ideas, do you...?

[...Not a bad point actually (and boy would that make Lance pissed which is always a fun perk), but the answer is still no.]

Look, it's - that's not how it works, okay? Volcanoes erupt and the magma makes more land out of it.

[Oh god that was so science-y and nerdy, stop asking him stuff.]

[A super fun perk c'mon have some time off of being a sour jerk.]

So if we ice it and make it really cold, then it won't erupt anymore.

It's over 2000 degrees in there though!

[Not that he knows that. He just heard about it from uh. One of his grandpa's assistants. Yeah.]

Then we'll make it -2000 degrees.

...

[He shouldn't ask but]

How?

Let's ask Articuno for help.

[And Green is officially done with this idea.] You go do that then. [He goes back to his book, waving his hand. Begone weird creature.]

You're not coming with?

[But dude it'll be so fun.]

Nah. Busy schedule and all. [Flipping through pages. His life is so packed with things to do. Yeah.]

[Knowing you can do something, but instead doing something else... That selfishness even if it's just the fact it's a really stupid idea reminds Red of Silph Co. No. No way.]

... Not this time... [He chucks a ball up at the ceiling of the library, smiling slightly as his Aerodactyl rests on the bookshelf Green's facing and peers down. Hello.]

[Hey he had more important things to do in Silph and Team Rocket was not on his agenda. Not that they were a big deal, right? Right?]

...Can I help you with something?

[They were too easy, but it was still frustrating to be happy to see his at-the-time rival and then the rest of the situation being blown off for a battle. Your priorities, dude!]

We're going to find a way out.

I think pretty much everyone's already tried to find a way, genius.

[No no no, you don't understand.

They're going to Hyper Beam out. Red simply points up and Tyler follows the finger.]

We'll go up.

Oh. [Wait.] You're not- [Red totally is serious, isn't he.] -not taking me with you.

[The only reason he hasn't swooped up Green yet is because Aerodactyl's wings are too big.]

You know more about volcanoes than I do. Tyler can blast a way up.

Who said I knew anything about volcanoes! [Red better not be calling him a nerd or anything because he totally isn't.]

[Looking from the bookshelf, then to Green.

Books, jerk.

Shelves, face.

Nerd, cries the wind. And Tyler.]

More than me.

It's all in your head. [He's taking a step back. Just don't wreck the library. Not that he wants to check out these books!]

And there's rocks in yours. [Tyler stretches his wings casually, leaning his head down between them to grin at Green. Red looks past the dino's head with a similar smile.

He'll do it, dude.

He'll wreck the place.]
