there is no mistaking the glimmer in her eyes; how it calls to him. his voice softens as a result.[break][break]

"then fight for me. trust me — trust me to get in, rescue them, and get out."[break][break]

he pauses.[break][break]

"we're talking about lives, penny. would you not do the same if it was me they had?"[break][break]

"I would."
[break][break]

There was no doubt about that. Whether it be Rocket, Dark Triad, or Arceus himself, Penelope would do whatever was necessary to bring him back.
[break][break]

But...
[break][break]

"That's why I don't want you to go."
[break][break]

A sigh fell out, followed by the flutter of her eyes slipping close. Those were just personal feelings swaying her words. They did little to decisions being made.
[break][break]

"But, this isn't about that, or whether I trust you. It's about Hoenn. It's about what we're capable of doing right now."

the tug at his heart is not enough to still the call he feels. how can he sit by while annalise henderson rots in some cell?[break][break]

"you're right."[break][break]

a breath.[break][break]

"you aren't capable but i am. you aren't ready and willing but i am. i am."[break][break]

there's almost an apology behind his eyes.[break][break]

"i'm going either way."[break][break]

There it was. The Matias she expected to emerge through the curtain of pretty eyes and hushed whispers of intimacy.
[break][break]

"Then go ahead. I can't stop you."
[break][break]

Lifting off from her point of the desk, Penelope returned to her seat, long strides solidified with every click of her heel tapping against the tile. The leather of the seat squealed beneath her weight.
[break][break]

"Just know what you're risking with this. Because it's not just the lives you're taking with you, but annalise henderson's herself. There's no telling what rocket will resort to when you're discovered, or how they'll retaliate. So I hope you're prepared."

no, she can't stop him. no one can.[break][break]

he watches the shifting demeanor of a councilwoman unravel before him as she rounds back around the desk to find her seat.[break][break]

"it's not just annalise henderson i'm saving."[break][break]

one step back is taken.[break][break]

"but we'll be fine. i'll make sure of it."[break][break]

"All the more reason you should be more cautious."
[break][break]

But what was the point of trying? It was clear her words mattered little to him. Though, did they ever amount to anything in the first place?
[break][break]

A sigh slipped out as agitation nibbled on her eyes and lips. Despite what she's done to deny it, the idea of his potential death wasn't a fond one. How could it be? When visions inferred its link to her own untimely demise.
[break][break]

"Just come back in one piece, Matias."

before he takes one more step back, he falters, pausing, and after a moment, he steps forward, approaching.[break][break]

"of course."[break][break]

he rounds her desk, nearing her before kneeling by her chair. the distance between councilwoman and elite four is bridged as he peers up at her.[break][break]

"try not to worry too much."[break][break]

Brows twitched upward in curious surprise as the volatile made worth of his name. To him kneeling, she turned without a second fo thought, hands reaching down to cusp the outline of his chin. His cheeks felt warm against her palms.
[break][break]

"Giving me an impossible task before setting off? How cruel can you be?"
[break][break]

A soft chuckle rolled out as she leaned forward and softly placed a kiss on his forehead. The chilling shivers, the desire to draw closer - it all felt familiar, and yet, so far from her reach. Like the flickering vision of a dream nearly lost.

a soft chuckle escapes him as he's held by her.[break][break]

"i'll be okay."[break][break]

he tilts his head to kiss her palm in a gesture so sweet that it's unbecoming of him.[break][break]

"you know me better than anyone, penny. do you really think i'd let anything happen?"[break][break]

Did she? Did she really know MATIAS SILPH as well as he proclaimed?
[Break][break]
Probably not.
[Break][break]
An astronomer can dedicate a life time navigating the cosmos and only gain a fraction of knowledge of it's inner workings. But that didn't matter. Not for the astronomer who'd enjoyed every second hunched over a telescope, or the lone councilwoman who enjoyed the escape from isolation. [Break][break]

"You're right," she murmured, thumbs idly drawing circles along his lower cheeks. "But that won't stop me from worrying. "
[Break][break]
Nothing would.[break][break]
A pause shaped her next thoughts.
[Break][break]
"If we pick up anything, I'll let you know."

"thank you."[break][break]

that's all he can ask for at this point—perhaps this is all he deserves—support from an organization that has stood against him time and time again.[break][break]

how long will it be until he's pushed out? he wonders.[break][break]

"i'll let you know before i go."[break][break]

he's saved Melody Miro from team rocket before. who better to do the same again this time than him?[break][break]
