"I have." Barnaby hadn't asked Felix Gallagher to meet without some information to offer the SPECTRA supervisor. He knew better than that.[break][break]

Unfortunately, there wasn't much to go on.[break][break]

"We have video confirmation of it at Mt. Chimney. Corporeal, now, somehow. It leaves and returns to the volcano about every three to five days. The direction it flies changes, but it looks like there's a pattern to it."[break][break]

Ice clinked within his glass, but Barnaby didn't move to take a sip. His focus was solely on Felix and disseminating his desires.[break][break]

"It's looking for something..." Zev Harcourt had suggested family. That remained to be seen.[break][break]

"...I want to know where it's going."[break][break]

What could be drawing it out again and again and pushing it to scour the region? It had to be something important.

A devilish smile flashed onto BARNABY FINCH's face as she explained her desire.[break][break]

Liberate me.[break][break]

"We can do that." A hollow assurance. [break][break]

"And more." So much more... as long as she agreed to their terms, of course.[break][break]

ROCKET was a gilded cage that had trapped many a powerful woman. He'd always marveled at those that chose to join of their own volition, like Elisabeth Fiorelli, when they seemingly had the world at their fingertips already. Wealth, power, position.[break][break]

Still, if a collar was what she wanted, BARNABY FINCH was more than happy to give it to Selena Desmarais.[break][break]

The idea of liberation was subjective, after all. Perhaps a cage was freedom to someone like her.[break][break]

"Make the arrangements, as we discussed." He instructed the bartender across from them, who nodded in confirmation. With that, Barnaby finished up the last of his drink and returned his cobalt gaze to Selena Desmarais.[break][break]

"It was wonderful to finally met you, Selena. I'll be in touch." He stood, buttoning his jacket, before offering a hand to her — to be shaken as a means of agreement.[break][break]

"Welcome to Rocket."

Feelings. BARNABY FINCH wasn't in the market for feelings. Not anymore. To feel deeply was to make oneself vulnerable. Sure, you could care for others – to a point – but... better to just have meaningless sex and enjoy the moment for what it was.[break][break]

Would francie myrtle choose to do that? Did she even understand where this could lead?[break][break]

"You have options..." They were at the precipice of something here. It would be her choice whether their friendship went farther than it ever had.[break][break]

"Keep them here..." Cupping his face as if it were something precious. "...and kiss me."[break][break]

Still holding her wrists, he guided her right hand downward, stopping at the top of his collar.[break][break]

"Use them to unbutton my shirt..." Barnaby paused, letting his words sink in for her. The way he spoke, easy and gentle, was meant to reassure. [break][break]

If Francie hadn't pulled away by this point, he'd move her hand even farther down, stopping just below his navel.[break][break]

"...or my pants."

THE RESURRECTION OF A GOD

[break]

BARNABY FINCH supposed it was a natural consequence of dealing with the supernatural... these sorts of questions that lingered in his mind. About life and rebirth and immortality. [break][break]

MOLTRES was dead. He'd seen its spirit with his own eyes, flying from the rift between the border of life and death. Ephemeral. Incorporeal.[break][break]

And yet there were now reports of it wandering the region, very much alive. Barnaby himself had obtained video evidence showing as much.[break][break]

How? [break][break]

Within ROCKET, bryan delarosa seemed like the best man to ask. Luckily, the Beast had agreed to meet him at the resurrection point — Mt. Chimney.[break][break]

"What about this place is so special, I wonder?" He mused, recalling events that had transpired at the volcano, like GROUDON's own awakening. "That a 'god' could find rebirth here?"[break][break]

Heat from the lava flows warmed the admin's skin, its light illuminating his face in the otherwise pitch blackness surrounding them.[break][break]

"Your thoughts, Bryan?" Barnaby asked, his head rolling to the side to meet bryan delarosa's gaze. There was a pleasant whimsey to his voice, as if this talk of gods and resurrection was a simple campfire story shared between friends.

Naomi Sato's excitement at the potential knowledge learned here earned her an appreciative smile. Better her experimenting with these feral Megalopolans than him... although Barnaby was curious to watch her work. Perhaps they could arrange...[break][break]

The unmistakable sound of myriad footfalls cut off that line of thinking. His Illumina STARMIE was recalled immediately upon Nomi's suggestion, a terrible sense of urgency to every action thereafter. Zev Harcourt guided them to the small closet that had been pointed out, entering first followed by Kaname Fujihara. Barnaby went next, with Naomi Sato bringing up the rear.[break][break]

Pushing as far into the closet as possible to make room for everyone, BARNABY FINCH found himself pressed between Zev and Kaname. Given their tight quarters, there wasn't really a way to avoid contact, plus the fact that he was more familiar with the ROCKET Beast... he leaned closer to Zev. Back to front, at least, instead of face to face.[break][break]

"Sshh.." Barnaby urged them to be quiet, indifferent to the proximity.[break][break]

Now all that was left to do was... wait.

EDEN'S EMBRACE • THE BEGINNING AND THE END

[break]

They'd been here before.[break][break]

A hot summer night, sticky with humidity due to the storm rumbling overhead. A cottage in the gloom. A knock on a weathered door.[break][break]

As BARNABY FINCH waited for it to open, rain pelted down onto him, drenching his light linen clothes, his dark, mussed hair. Without even a jacket to offer protection, all he could do was pull his collar up around him.[break][break]

He hadn't thought to bring an umbrella. Elisabeth Fiorelli's text beckoning him to her home had been so unexpected that he'd left within minutes, carrying only the essentials.[break][break]

Barnaby had no reason to think tonight would be any different than the countless other times he'd found himself here, though.[break][break]

Well. Perhaps that wasn't exactly true.[break][break]

Time would tell what motivations pulled at Elisabeth at so late an hour.

Question after question filled the frigid air, and CALYREX deigned to answer — most. He said little of substance in BARNABY FINCH's estimation, besides glimpses of information about a Skeleton and Black Knight. Their fight brought forth the Darkest Day...[break][break]

The stipulation for their departure from this memory caught his attention, too. Creating stories that awaken the hero dog? Whatever that meant, Barnaby figured he'd find out once he'd chosen a Galar city to teleport to.[break][break]

And that decision rested solely on Caleb Harcourt.[break][break]

He'd been watching the ranger as all the commotion with CALYREX unfolded. Observed his body language, listened to his question, and judged it for its inherent vapidness in the face of much more pressing concerns.[break][break]

"How do I forgive myself for all of the terrible things I've done?"

[break]

What a waste. And yet he found solace in CALYREX's answer.[break][break]

"Thank you... for believing in me."

[break]

Such a naïve man-child. Barnaby found himself wanting to quash Caleb Harcourt's earnest spirit. For now, however, he'd simply continue to keep an eye on Zev Harcourt's younger brother.[break][break]

He and several others, including ana fell and Isaac Merlo, helped erect a burial mound for CALYREX — a makeshift remembrance to the memory of a cursed king. To the ROCKET admin, their show of pity for a poisoned reminiscence was just...[break][break]

Foolhardy sentimentality. [break][break]

But it mattered little to him. Soon enough, they finished making peace with the fallen king and warped within the beam of light leading to MOTOSTOKE. Barnaby would do the same, but held back with Elisabeth Fiorelli and didn't announce his choice over comms. [break][break]

"I'll accompany you, Viper." He lurked in the shadow of ROCKET's newest Avatar. If she could rein in her overbearing resentment, perhaps she'd prove useful in his schemes to come.[break][break]

Fire and stone erupted all around, but try as Barnaby might to avoid the destruction some unseen force stalled his SPECTRIER's PHANTOM FORCE and skewed its destination. He ended up closer to the ruined cathedral, nearly buried under fallen rubble. A few gashes served as a reminder of his narrow brush with mortality.[break][break]

Once the fighting died down and CALYREX appeared astride their frozen steed, the ROCKET admin joined those congregated around it, listening intently as the creature spoke through several people - including key operatives like Elisabeth Fiorelli, bryan delarosa, and fern delaney. [break][break]

It was unsettling, but short-lived. Barnaby moved to stand beside Elisabeth Fiorelli once she and MATIAS SILPH were done hissing at one another. He said nothing, allowing his proximity to suffice as communication. I'm here.[break][break]

Using the statue's decapitated head as a mouthpiece, CALYREX continued, asking for questions before begging for death. Voices rose from the crowd one after the other in response. Soon enough, Barnaby contributed his own:[break][break]

"What do you mean 'forever paranoid and forever your foe'? Will this affliction not kill you?"[break][break]

He was reminded of the horrid, half-alive Megalopolans within Lesser Megalopolis. Driven mad in the unnatural darkness. Was this a similar ailment? [break][break]

SPECTRIER whinnied a sorrowful cry, stepping forward to meet the rotting body of the once-great King of Bountiful Harvests and the GLASTRIER it sat upon. The equid felt a distant kinship with this CALYREX, as if connected somehow across the expanse of time; seeing it in this state was a grave and tragic circumstance. [break][break]

"Do it." Barnaby ordered his Pokémon to use DARK PULSE, nodding to the king. SPECTRIER understood. This would be a mercy killing. A parting gift to a shadow of an old friend.[break][break]

This business with Killian Decker was a dark and frustrating ordeal. The ex-underboss left a hole in their ranks that wasn’t easily filled, especially where DEOXYS was concerned. The Pokemon had been a parasite, of course – but a strong asset for ROCKET.[break][break]

Just as MOLTRES would be, if they could capture it. If not, disposing of the Legendary would be better than allowing it to fall into the LEAGUE’s hands again.[break][break]

“Power.” Something BARNABY FINCH had coveted since adolescence. “And potential.”[break][break]

His cobalt eyes slid over to the UNOWN-K that had drifted closer. Barnaby knew of their power, too. It had escaped ROCKET with the exit of Martín del Mar. So many of their own Avatars, lost.[break][break]

“We’re at a crossroads right now. With Moltres now reborn, it has the potential to help or hinder, depending on how we play our cards.” His gaze returned to Naomi Sato, flames of desire sparking in their blue depths.[break][break]

“We know it’s sought a vessel for its power before, so we can only assume it will again. My main goal is to prevent the creation of yet another League Avatar. If that means killing Moltres, then so be it.” Better off dead than a future complication.[break][break]

“Hopefully we can use it first, though.”

All at once BARNABY FINCH found himself dragged on top of his long-absent friend. [break][break]

In the time that she’d been away, he’d forgotten the delicate fragrance of her shampoo, the way her body melded so easily with his, the warmth of her laugh… so many small things that hit him all at once. She had been missed, more than what Barnaby realized.[break][break]

“Francie…” He breathed out, even as she wriggled beneath him.[break][break]

If she were to look, she would notice that something in his expression had changed. From pleasantly amused to profoundly hungry.[break][break]

He wanted her. He probably always had.[break][break]

Platonic friendships always fell flat for Barnaby; he enjoyed physical intimacy too much to deny it, especially when francie myrtle made it so difficult to ignore. [break][break]

“Here,” He went to grab both her wrists, guiding them up so that her palms cupped his jawline and her fingers lingered at the back of his neck, if she allowed.[break][break]

“Use them on me.”
