"there's the beginning, the middle, and the end, as you said. all three stages demand something of you, each perhaps different and unique, and you change accordingly. you learn. you adapt. you survive."[break][break]

there are no three distinct identities, no separation depending on the stage they're in, no. there has always been one identity—THEO BECKETT.[break][break]

"i have always cared deeply, fiorelli. but i have had to learn to taper that care accordingly."[break][break]

Elisabeth Fiorelli can learn to do the same.[break][break]

"Oh?" Elisabeth said with faux surprise, turning towards him. "And to think, I thought after we returned from that Galarian dreamscape you were losing your mind."[break][break]

Resentment returned, this time from another potent source, as she glared at him.[break][break]

He'd given her a glimpse into his psyche he couldn't take back. He possessed as many cracks in his armor as anyone else, but he'd not hidden his from her.[break][break]

To think that for a moment, she'd believed him some stoic being capable of hiding all he felt from the world. How laughable.[break][break]

"You were a coward," she accused him, "and you deny you ever were. I've held my tongue and told no one of your treasonous thoughts, Beckett, but know that I could have."[break][break]

That was a power he'd foolishly handed over to her, and though the time to abuse it had long passed, he wasn't the paragon of strength he pretended now to be.[break][break]

"You 'tapered your care' because I forced your hand, in the end."[break][break]

his cracked psyche has healed since their interaction in his mossdeep home that no longer remains. he'd sold it, along with any reminders of that period of weakness and vulnerability he'd shown.[break][break]

for her to bring it up now is low, but not unexpected.[break][break]

"perhaps."[break][break]

but where she may think she holds power over him, he knows he remains a paradigm of the ideal rocket. it would be her word against his, and so far, she has not done herself any favors.[break][break]

"but you should learn to taper yours, too."[break][break]

"Hah."[break][break]

Did he think this was her at her most unhinged state?[break][break]

Did he think that was her not repressing some silent urge to kill him, an urge that threatened to overtake her psyche the longer he kept irritating her like this?[break][break]

"I'm exercising more restraint than you give me credit for, let's just say that."[break][break]

Her footsteps slowed as they reached their destination, her Pokemon stepping forward to begin setting up the mining rig.[break][break]

"If I didn't know better, I'd say you're trying to replace my handler," she challenged, raising an eyebrow. "Are you?"

"in an ideal world, yes, admin bee would be replaced."[break][break]

whether by theo or someone else would not matter much, though he'd prefer it not to be him, considering how difficult Elisabeth Fiorelli has already proven to work with let alone oversee.[break][break]

"there needs to be a level of detachment between you two. obviously, there isn't one now, but replacing him would only be part of the solution. the other part is the tapering of your emotions."[break][break]

"You seem to have forgotten something, Beckett," she said, whirling on him with the coldness of demeanor he purported to want from her.[break][break]

The light in her eyes went flat; her mouth drew into a thin line of displeasure; her tone took on a clipped, cool affectation.[break][break]

This was the calm of a gathering storm, however. All the emotion churned and bubbled beneath the surface, eager for thunder to release at the first sign of lightning.[break][break]

"I am your equal, not a problem for you to dissect and resolve. Whomever I choose to entrust with the difficulties of my Avatarship is a choice I have more agency in making than most."[break][break]

A faint scoff escaped her then, and she shrugged.[break][break]

"I wouldn't expect someone as godless and arrogant as you to understand."

"the choice is yours," he dips his head in both agreement and dismissal, "but the risks still need to be said as the consequences are for all of us to bear."[break][break]

her rank was never questioned in the first place. for all of her flaws, Elisabeth Fiorelli has proven herself to be an asset to the organization, her contributions unmatched. but it is because of his godless alignment that allows him to see the risks she refuses to.[break][break]

the same risks also apply to Cillian Quinn, though for obvious reasons, theo has not been as demanding with them as he has with her.[break][break]

"which is what cillian and i tried to convey during our meeting. rely on us, and we will do the same."[break][break]

She stared at him, wary as she searched his expression for any tell at his ulterior motives. To think he'd ever rely on her was laughable, but she humored him nonetheless, curious about his other statement.[break][break]

"In what way am I meant to rely on you?"[break][break]

Wasn't relying on him in some ways giving up her own autonomy? Wasn't it an implication he didn't trust her to act on her own accord?[break][break]

"What is it I'm meant to come to you and Cillian Quinn for, that we do not already provide one another?"[break][break]

"what do we already provide one another?"[break][break]

he cannot think of one tangible thing they offer each other beyond distrust. he thinks back to the kyurem incident and how even there, when their lives were at risk, they lacked unity and direction.[break][break]

nevertheless, he continues.[break][break]

"information, guidance, and support."[break][break]

Her eyebrows lifted perceptively, bewildered by this line of questioning.[break][break]

"Do you not receive my reports then, Beckett?" she asked him bluntly. "Is the assistance I am offering now not up to your needs? Do I fail to complete missions on Rocket's behalf that benefit you?"[break][break]

She resisted an eyeroll with every bit of self-control she could muster. She couldn't prevent the dry, bleak humor that entered her tone, however.[break][break]

"As for support, do you mean in the way you supported jayden cross? Is that the way I'm meant to support you?"

"i receive what you want me to receive, often late where my input would be inconsequential."[break][break]

like how she'd delivered updates to the underbosses in their recent meeting having already acquired the RED SHARD and a plan to see through.[break][break]

his eyes widen at the mention of jayden cross but his expression betrays little.[break][break]

"if i were to ever lose control the same way admin cross has, then yes, i would hope you, or anyone within this organization, would put me in my place."[break][break]

"Is that not how you operate?" she questioned, sounding confused more than anything else. "When was the last time you requested my input on anything?"[break][break]

Nothing came to mind at all, to be frank, save for the time he almost fled the organization. In contrast, he and Cillian had been quite vocal on their thoughts regarding her Avatarship and her plans for MATIAS SILPH.[break][break]

"When have I ever been consequential in your plans, Beckett?"[break][break]

in his defense, he has yet to see value in anything Elisabeth Fiorelli could offer that he couldn't get elsewhere. he imagines she must feel the same about him, but from that stems the detachment from one another. the lack of trust.[break][break]

"you haven't been, but that's my point."[break][break]

he says.[break][break]

The sound of drilling permeated the silence. Elisabeth shook her head, bemused, and shrugged once more.[break][break]

"You are the one unhappy with how things stand, not me.”[break][break]

Which suggested something, teasing out a thought that she would otherwise not have wondered aloud.[break][break]

”Are you angry that declan walsh trusts me, when you and Cillian Quinn don’t? You never cared about this before I shared his plans with you.”[break][break]

She expected him to deny it, truthfully, but she wondered how he might respond. It was something she suspected at least, more and more, given how much more frequent the topic of trust had become since that day.[break][break]
