[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.]

[shrug! may be jabbing his elbow at silver in an entirely "friendly" manner]

Can't say I didn't try. How about I... Oh, I know. I found this great abandoned city, right? There was a ton of cool shit in it! [yeah??????]

[tsuntrader]

Seen it. I'm still looking for a way out, you know. [But right now, he's looking for a specific door, and he thinks he's-

Nope, not this one. Closing the door. Let's keep moving.]

[illegalteendad]

Well, I can't help you there. Haven't found one either. The entire place is sealed up like picnic food.

[... though if he's gonna be honest with himself

he hasn't exactly been looking too hard--]

Oh, shit! The picnic! I didn't ask him! Crys is gonna be mad at me.

[tsuntrader]

...Picnic?

[illegalteendad]

[maaaaan]

... Crys and I were gonna take him out to the mountains for some spelunking and lunch, since he's pretty much always by himself in his office with Sneasel. Kind of a dive and dine sorta thing.

[he'll definitely say no now

shit he kinda doesn't even want to ask him he'll just think about bad decision dinosaur

it won't be so bad with crys there right???

... sure]

[tsuntrader]

I still don't get why you hang out with him.

[illegalteendad]

[it's ok he doesn't know either

seriously it's equal parts "i want to be his friend" and "i want to be his friend so he leaves team rocket and the organization starts to crumble"]

I got a master plan. [but that's not all it's just that this is gonna be his default answer] Besides, I just can't leave him alone.

[it's bugging him on the "why" he knows why but he doesn't want to own up to the why because they're enemies and friends and no]

[tsuntrader]

[...He's not sure if he likes this Gold.] Why?

[illegalteendad]

[he doesn't know so he's not gonna answer, just wave his hand dismissively

forget it]

You gonna tell me what you want in exchange for that information about Rhydon or am I gonna have to go around askin' everyone else?

[tsuntrader]

I want an answer. How about that?

[illegalteendad]

[ugh]

Where're we going?

[tsuntrader]

I'm not sure if I want to take you anymore. [You're kind of an asshole dude]

...You'll see.

[illegalteendad]

[he just wants to stallll he doesn't want to talk about this thing with another silver

or with anyone actually]

I'll tell you when we get there, then. [because he has to think on how to word it without sounding totally stupid which he's gonna sound anyway]

[tsuntrader]

I'm holding you to that. [God damn where the hell is that stupid door-]

[illegalteendad]

My word's as good as your Gold's.

[which he hopes is faulty somehow]

[tsuntrader]

You sure you're willing to be that honest? [Giving your word is big deal, dude. Sure, Gold is full of himself and lies to make himself look better, but that's something completely different.]

[illegalteendad]

With a few conditions.

[tsuntrader]

[...Well, go on.]

[illegalteendad]

Don't laugh and don't tell anyone. I mean, I don't know who you'd tell anyway, and I've only seen one of you laugh like once and it was... Anyway, that's all. Oh, and no matter what you gotta tell me what you know about Rhydon.

[he's gonna feel odd enough just saying all this shit out loud

hell he wouldn't even admit to half of it if it wasn't for this dumb deal




why was he even so eager to help silver out anyway?]

1/2

[tsuntrader]

I've got no one to tell. [Seriously. No one remembers what he remembers.] I'm not gonna laugh at you, either.

[tsuntrader]

...I'll tell you about Rhydon if I feel like I can trust you when we're done.

[But hey, he's found the room he was looking for.

One two three forest!]

[illegalteendad]

[oooh this is nice

it's too bad he kind of doesn't wanna step in

just kind of standing outside the door]

Is it seriously such a big secret? Jeez.

[tsuntrader]

It took me forever to figure it out, and that's only because my father was the first to figure it out to begin with.

Besides, last time I checked, you didn't have a Rhytaro.

[Now come on in already, this isn't even the part he's looking for.

Weavile is eager to run ahead without a second thought. There must be something pretty cool in this forest.]

[illegalteendad]

It'd be Rhybro! Figures a guy like that'd find out first though, with all the Pokemon he's probably experimented on...

[goodness



fine he'll follow

whatever could it beee]

[tsuntrader]

He learned it from field experiences, not from Team Rocket.

[You'll see!]
