Howard watched Amor Rose saunter off, then looked at Makoto. "I've seen his file. You think he knows I'm older than him?"
Blasted Head Scientist. Howard silently prayed for a stray car to crash into the casino and run him over. Howard's eye flicked over to the Stakataka surveillance brick. Nothing heinous yet. Howard wondered if the League had these same issues, or if the League had a party that was also filled with nutcases, sycophants, and Amor Roses.
He chuckled quietly to himself. Nah. The League was likely full of completely normal people, with minimal corruption.
Meanwhile, a single Stakataka surveillance brick rolled towards Shred Zeppelin to inspect the rare and elusive Meltan. The brick blinked at it.
"We always need more scientists. It's a pleasure. I'm a scientist too, after a sense. Archaeology." Howard said politely. He decided that he liked this Violet Fairbanks fellow. Anyone who hated mint frost and his choice in music had to be somewhat sane. Besides, being on good terms with as many Team Rocket members as possible was important. Networking was the key to success.
"Demeaning my boss is one of the few pleasures left to me. Pardon me. I need to ensure that nobody bought gifts with my own money." Howard clapped Makoto on their shoulder as he stood up and walked off, leaving Tsukiko with Makoto.
Instead, he walked over to check the gifts. He wondered if the legendary priam conrad body pillow truly existed, or if this was one of those rumors that graced the Team Rocket Grunt Fanzine that one could allegedly purchase in Cleaning Closet #3 for 41 PD. Howard hadn't been able to buy it since his promotion, but it was apparently printing some wacky stuff, like the existence of a fan club of some kind?
He'd need to ask Kouji Matsubara to buy him a copy.
"Oh...?" Howard picked up his gift, surprised at the weight. With trembling arms, he unwrapped it and gasped. Oh, what a beauty this is. A ornately carved jade statue of a Hisuian Arcanine? No, not ornately carved. Beautifully carved. This was a work of art that deserved to be in a museum.
This made it all worth it.
"Who...?" Howard asked as he looked around, unaware that it was dorian westcliff that had such fine taste in gifts. "Who gifted this? Who gi-"
Suddenly, Howard's eye was blinded as Mint got his revenge at Howard's quiet shitting on his taste in music with a kiss cam. Howard was going to load that man into a trebuchet and launch him at Ever Grande. All the Rocket Beast did was idiosyncratic nonsense like this, take selfies, and have the worst taste in music known to man.
If Howard Slayte was in a bunker with both Zev Harcourt and Mint Frost with a gun and two bullets, he'd shoot Mint twice.
"I... erm... hm." At least Mint had the decency to pair Howard up with a hottie. The glasses were an extra point. People wanted but they couldn't have, and Howard couldn't properly use glasses with one of his eyes missing. As he glanced at Caspian, Howard's face reddened slightly and he rubbed his temples.
Fuuuuuuuck.
"Let's give him what he wants, so he'll bully the next person. It's been a while since college, but..." Howard put his hand under Caspian's put a hand under Caspian's chin and lifted upwards, his lips brushing with the doctor's.
