“AH,” he nods in acknowledgement. “and how did that fair with the SPACE-TIME DISTORTIONS?”

"Less than successfully." Elinor sighed. With the amount of special snowflakes in Hoenn, it was a surprise that the amount of wounded from space time distortions were not higher.

"If our attempts at dissuading the populace are bound to fail, perhaps we ought to make use of their willingness to leap headlessly into danger?" Elinor suggested. Though she admittedly didn't like the thought of civilians being put in danger.

HE KNOWS LITTLE OF ELINOR. the crux of her reputation stems from her surname. beholden to a legacy that has besmirched the league’s upper echelon with father and son, now sister and daughter, creates a vacuum for impressions. is it a lack of commitment or the caution of someone still adjusting?

he’s not sure.

not yet.

“do we have a choice?”

If only Elinor knew that her family’s reputation worked against her. If only she knew that her Uncle Bill Anderson had used his position less than adequately. She might’ve seen Fernando’s at arm's-length approach. Well, of course she had skimmed the past records of previous holders of her seat, but she hadn’t dived deeper. There’d been more pressing matters like the end of Hoenn and so on.

“While I would like to believe we do, I know that would be very naive of me. So I suppose we do not.” Elinor replied, she sighed mildly. The thought of civilians headlessly throwing their lives at danger, while commendable, wasn't one she was fond of. One might even say it truly was ‘a nightmare before christmas’ for her.

“WE ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE,” is his stern word of advice. it settles properly only moments later. as if to clean the palate of his tongue for a new talking point.

“but to do so would be wasteful in this scenario. we must make due with the cards that have been dealt.”

expectation stares into her soul.

“so what does your hand look like, anderson?”

Elinor pondered Fernando’s stern word of advice.

Her eyes met with his. And she felt how his expectations tried to drill into her, to dig for disappointment.

Make due with the cards dealt…

A simple notion to spew when you weren’t in charge of the League’s public Image. But no, she could not simply let that be her defense. Fernando was every bit a member of the Council, perhaps even more so than she, he could perform her job should she be unable to do so, so to think less of him would be unwise.

“I suppose for all my complaining, my hand could definitely be worse.” She admitted. “I have colleagues with experience that I can draw upon.” She referred of course to Fernando and GABRIEL BLACK who had age on their side.

Her gaze wandered for a moment as she began to list the other cards she saw in her hand. “I have the League as a whole.” She paused momentarily to consider her words. “Which I am sure aren’t lacking in individuals eager to prove themselves should they be asked, whether it be among the Rangers, Officers, Military, the Gym Circuit and surely even the Elite Four.”

“And lastly, I must not forget, I too am a card that can be played.” The thought struck her, she would perhaps shine brighter as a beacon of hope among the masses, to lead the charge into these wild lands, and to guide them so that the losses could be fewer and the gains more plentiful.

Perhaps she might shine as Saint Lucy herself who had a whole day commemorated to her.

“Perhaps it isn’t as bleak as I initially made it out...” She returned her gaze to Fernando. Some small manner of her, hoped the answer would satisfy him, though she figured nothing could.

HER HOPE IS LEFT UNATTENDED. for he makes no show of approval or lack thereof at her answer. instead, he simply stares, absorbed in her analysis.

“an ample hand then, no?”

Fernando seemed like a blank canvas. Elinor simply couldn’t get a read on him. It was actually rather impressive.

But she was granted something for her efforts. Five small words, which if she squinted hard enough could almost seem like encouragement.

“It will have to be, it’s the one I have.” Elinor commented. “Though I must admit, I do feel a smidge worried about some parts of it. Specifically the Rangers.” Elinor watched for any signs of a reaction. But she figured she would see none.

“I am sure you are well aware by now. But the last Ranger meeting didn’t exactly go as planned.” That was speaking kindly.

“Don’t get me wrong I have faith that our Head Rangers, and their captains will be doing their best for the benefit of Hoenn.” Elinor said, an icky feeling appeared in her mouth. It didn’t feel right to talk about Laurence Anderson and annalise henderson with Fernando. But still, friends and family they may be. They had important positions they were supposed to maintain.

“It is just the rest I am worried about.” Though she shared the Cadet within the organization, the difference in professionalism amongst the Cadets were astounding.

“But what do you think of the Rangers?”

“OH?”

the reaction she finds it just the quaintest surprise. his good eyebrow rises and his nose wrinkles with interest. “that’s to be expected,” he dismisses, as if that alone was not enough to warrant his worry.

“i think they are the pride and joy of this organization. for it takes great courage to risk your life day in and day out for the good of pokemon. and for that, i am grateful for their services.”

he mulls the question back at her.

“what are your concerns with the ‘rest’ of the ranger, anderson?”

how ironic that the only anderson brave enough to breach this topic is the one not seated at the top of their roster.

Fernando was grateful. This pleased Elinor, though she was well aware that it could merely be empty platitudes to put her at ease.

Fernando gave her another question.

She took a moment to mull over how she ought to respond.

“My concerns lay mainly with the cadets level of professionalism.” Elinor replied. “I know that a single meeting does not provide the full picture. But I worry that a few rotten apples can spoil the whole bunch, and give us a lot of unnecessary PR work to do.”

Not to mention discontent among the Cadets would be a sure fire way for Rocket to plant moles in their midst.

“THEY ARE FIELD WORKERS,” he counters. “not office workers.”

“in exchange for hard and often life threatening labor, the least we can do is cover what they lack in professionalism.”

he eye teeters from one side to the other, as if in deep thought.

“i would wager we have too few rangers than an excess. however valid those concerns, they come second to survival.”

Fernando did not need to remind her of the life-threatening work that Rangers did. She remembered it all too well. But perhaps she had grown too used to the safety walls of the office.

And so Fernando rightfully pointed out that they lacked willing bodies for the Rangers. Elinor was quick to realize that she had dismissed the Rangers too quickly.

“That it does.” Elinor agreed. Survival, the ever important thing they all fought for. How could they go about ensuring this?

Truly a subject she ought to spend more time pondering on.
