TAG WITH @aurelie
Aurelie Lefevre
[attr="class","aurelie"] [attr="class","aurelie_lyrics"]No longer taking up the gauntlet [attr="class","aurelie_body"]Had it been someone else from Rocket leadership who told her that they bet on her to win the entire Gauntlet—someone with whom Aurelie felt better acquainted and who had seen her at her worst, like howard slayte, jayden cross, Cillian Quinn, or even BARNABY FINCH—she would have responded with a cheerfully self-deprecating comment like, Well, you should've known better, shouldn't you?But she and THEO BECKETT barely knew each other. What he was thinking with his bet—or with his even more startling offer—she had no idea. She eyed Theo quizzically, weighing her response. "Well, I'm sorry to have disappointed you, sir," the redhead replied after a moment, her tone quiet and respectful. "I was disappointed by my performance too, so I can tell you you're hardly alone in that.
"I'd welcome your thoughts and help," she went on, bowing her head in acknowledgement. "I've already been thinking a lot about what I could've done differently, if another Pokemon would've been a better option, and whether setting a trap was the best opening tactic. A more experienced, veteran perspective would be very valuable." In a way, his offer helped already. It reminded Aurelie that the grunts were here to learn and grow and that the leadership was here to study them and help them improve. These underbosses, admins, and Beasts weren't just here to watch the grunts perform for their pleasure, like gladiators fighting to the death for a heartless, bloodthirsty crowd. Though the betting told her there was still an element of pleasure in it for them, unpleasantly enough. Taking another sip of her sangria, she added, "After what so many of us suffered in that Megalopolan prison... I feel like it's impossible to be too ready for the worst anymore. I doubt that'll be the last we see of the Toxic Chain, Dynamaxed Pokemon, or Celebi and Palkia, after all."[attr="class","aurelie_tag"] THEO BECKETTPrompt: Discuss recent events and how they impact Team Rocket. TL;DR: - Confused by Theo's bet and offer but accepts anyway - Reflects on the leadership watching and betting on the grunts and on the events of Prismatic Penitentiary [newclass=.aurelie]width:420px;padding:40px;background:#862939;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie img]height:100px;width:100px;padding:15px;border:1px solid #fff;border-radius:100px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_lyrics]text-align:center;font-family:verdana;font-size:9px;text-transform:uppercase;color:#eee;letter-spacing:1px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_body]width:420px;padding:40px;background:#222;font-size:14px;line-height:16px;text-align:justify;font-family:calibri;color:#aaa;letter-spacing:.5px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_tag]text-align:center;font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_tag a]font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred]text-align:center;font-size:8px;color:rgb(132, 132, 132);letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred a]color:rgb(132, 132, 132);font-size:8px;letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;[/newclass]
