[attr="class","beckmain"]quietly, he wonders if these distortion worlds could take them back to their life in galar. to his life; the one had so longs for despite all the grieving he has done.

footsteps pull him out of his thoughts.

"barnaby."

he turns, offering a faint smile.

"been well?"

Barnaby's sentiment toward the Distortion World couldn't have been more opposite to THEO BECKETT's. Galar had been a twenty-year prison for him. He did not relish ever returning.[break][break]

But was this plane any better? At least Galar had resembled reality. [break][break]

Given that, it was a surprise to stumble upon a familiar face here.[break][break]

"Theo." Barnaby returned the underboss' greeting and moved to walk toward him. Oddly, no matter how many strides he took, the distance between them didn't appear to lessen.[break][break]

"I've been better. What do you make of this place?"

what they do know is that this world is unpredictable. chaotic. it seems to not adhere to the rules of physics that confines their own world.

he turns, somehow able to hear the admin despite the distance between them; another quirk of this realm, he imagines.

"what has you feeling down?"

There were many ways he could have answered THEO BECKETT. Deflection was Barnaby's usual route with these sorts of questions. He never wanted to reveal too much of himself to any one person.[break][break]

But this realm was an odd one. Not only did it push at the bounds of reality, shifting time and space in ways foreign to them, but it also picked at the threads of what made them them.[break][break]

Given this, BARNABY FINCH answered in the most unlikely and uncanny of ways: with the truth.[break][break]

"... does it ever seem like we're fighting a losing battle to you? Trying to save our entire universe..."[break][break]

Against the DRK Triad, who had seemingly limitless resources at their disposal.[break][break]

"Feels like a daunting task at times."

expecting different, he takes a moment to process the truth shared, and the conclusion he stumbles upon is a sobering one.[break][break]

"it's a depressing thought, isn't it? to know that our actions are so minute on the grand scale that it likely doesn't even matter."[break][break]

he says, exhaustion creeping into his voice.[break][break]

"leave the saving to others. we have our own goals to accomplish."

The branches of large, kelp-like trees swayed like ribbons on a breeze, though there was a distinct lack of wind in this liminal space. It was an unsettling thing - much like THEO BECKETT's response.[break][break]

The underboss' words were hard to swallow for a man so staunchly devoted to carving out control over his life. Barnaby detested the thought of relying on others for his own survival.[break][break]

"How can we, in good conscience, work towards those goals while ignoring impending calamity?"[break][break]

It wasn't posed as an accusation. In fact, the admin's tone was neither harsh nor inculpatory. There was simply a commiserate weariness there.[break][break]

"The League alone can't be trusted to save us."

the weariness is shared and should they have spoken weeks prior, it would have been echoed and perhaps doubled in return. but as underboss, he must lead and ensure they stay true to their goals, and so this front he upholds needs to be maintained.[break][break]

"there will be nothing worth saving if we lose this war."[break][break]

he says, then poses a question to the admin.[break][break]

"what is the league's biggest weakness?"

Wreaths of darkness began to coil around both BARNABY FINCH and THEO BECKETT's feet, probing at the foreign objects in GIRATINA's realm. The shadows drew the two men together, though they themselves hadn't moved a muscle. [break][break]

"You're right, of course. I know that." [break][break]

It was a near impossible thing to balance — their conflict with the LEAGUE and the threat the DRK TRIAD posed.[break][break]

"..." Barnaby paused upon hearing the underboss' question. He didn't immediately answer, wanting to collect his thoughts first. [break][break]

"They're fractured." The admin eventually replied. "Their leadership stands on shaky foundations."

with balance being nearly impossible to find, it becomes easier to focus on the path that would lead them closer to what they so hungrily strive for.[break][break]

"correct. that, along with their endless list of priorities that they fail at managing, is how we're going to edge ahead."[break][break]

it's why annalise henderson had stayed imprisoned for as long as she had. people expect the league to protect them, to keep them safe from all the threats, but those expectations are drowning them.[break][break]

after a moment, he looks over and asks:[break][break]

"and how are our foundations, admin bee?"

It was also why no one had come for Caleb Harcourt. In the end, one of their own had betrayed them for his freedom. But what did that say about ROCKET's foundations?[break][break]

The ominous echo of something that sounded like silver bells suddenly rang out — slowly, distortedly — through the realm. Was it announcing the arrival of someone? GIRATINA, perhaps?[break][break]

BARNABY FINCH glanced around uneasily before meeting THEO BECKETT's even gaze.[break][break]

"I can see the potential for cracks to form," The admin admitted, candid in his opinion.[break][break]

"Many of those in positions of power have made pacts with creatures whose motives are... unclear. You're the only one in the top brass that hasn't, in fact."[break][break]

He thinks of declan walsh, Cillian Quinn, Elisabeth Fiorelli, Zev Harcourt, jayden cross, Naomi Sato, and others.

"i agree, though i'd say the cracks have already begun to form."[break][break]

he admitted in return, equally candid as the ominous echo of silver bells ring out, interrupting the silence of the distortion world.[break][break]

"many chase after these creatures without realizing the costs of making such a pact. take jayden cross, as an example, and look at how unstable he has become."[break][break]

for the briefest of moments, theo almost looks crestfallen as he talks about the admin.[break][break]

Though the Distortion World was a muted place of incongruent parts, somehow a chill still hung in the air here. Barnaby pulled his coat more tightly around himself, unsure if it was the cold or THEO BECKETT's words that goaded goosebumps onto his skin.[break][break]

Where the underboss spoke of jayden cross, he thought of Elisabeth Fiorelli and the blight she'd wrought upon Petalburg Woods. And when the other man mentioned Barnaby himself, the admin simply shook his head, reassuring that that fate would not come to pass.[break][break]

"You know I'm always careful, Theo."[break][break]

BARNABY FINCH knew himself to be apart from the rest, after all. Stronger of mind, more resilient in character. He was different.[break][break]

jayden cross had succumbed to his overwhelming HATRED. Elisabeth Fiorelli and her RESENTMENT made her vulnerable to manipulation. But BARNABY FINCH? Above such base emotions. [break][break]

A hollow, chiming sound rang out yet again. Closer this time. More ominous.[break][break]

"Are you ready to depart from here? I think I've seen enough for now."

it's as BARNABY FINCH had said, the number of pacts made and wills shared outnumber the rest, but if theo is forced to stand alone just so he can support the rest of them, to fill the cracks of their foundations, then he will do just that.[break][break]
