The Visionary was once a nobody. A pink-haired speck of dust in the sandstorm of Hoenn's citizenry, plagued by nothing more than social anxiety and getting good grades in her university classes. Lonely, quiet, clever: but not special. Not important.[break][break]
Now, she is the sort of woman who teleports without hesitation into the high office of the Rocket Boss, haloed in a vibrant crystalline blue energy, directly following a quorum responsible for elevating Zev Harcourt to God General and officially deploying Kanto forces onto Hoenn soil. All because the Unown had deemed her worthy of their allegiance. Of their power.[break][break]
They, too, are not legendary. But they are the building blocks of all creation, and as is often the case, it pays to be underestimated. So it is that Naomi Sato does not fear declan walsh as she might once have.[break][break]
War is imminent, but it is not the right war. Rocket, League - they see only their own minute, short-term goals, driven by grudges and mortal impatience. So she will do what all prophets must do. Are destined to do.[break][break]
She speaks.[break][break]
"This is a long time coming, perhaps." She knows that he knows: about her agenda. Her ongoing negotiations. "But now that Kanto is here, I must formally make my appeal."[break][break]
Kallistatus hovers above her head, watchful.[break][break]
"I do not believe that this is the best use of our resources."

the dark office's atmosphere is somber and stale. unmoving. dust weighs against the webbing of air and as Naomi Sato states her case, the boss' gaze pierces through the oppressive gossamer.[break][break]

"do tell. what resources do you speak of, head scientist sato?"[break][break]

the shadows darken in quiet corners.[break][break]

His gaze is intense, but she has prepared for it. Her closeness with Lulu Flint has paid off in more than just sisterly affection; Nomi is familiar with the machinations of Darkrai, the way the shadows will feel as if they are closing in around her - attempting to drain the life from her limbs.[break][break]
"Kanto's army. Kanto's funding. Kanto's technology," she answers automatically. "Monroe and his troops could be put to use rooting out the Triad, but instead we throw all of them into a - " she holds her tongue, chokes back the word pointless " - war with the League."[break][break]
She knows that she walks a dangerous knife-edge. She knows that respect is warranted. Self-preserving. She has made a promise to parker jones not to die needlessly.[break][break]
And still, she risks asking the one thing that might matter more than anything else - that she finally has an opportunity to draw forth from the obfuscator.[break][break]
"I understand how advantageous it will be for us to claim more Hoenn territory, I do," she insists. "But it's a short-sighted victory, if the entire region gets destroyed soon after." She pauses. "If I may be so bold, sir...do you not see the DRK Triad as Hoenn's greatest threat? And if not...why not?"

the boss stirs little. if he didn't require breathing, one may mistake his pallid figure as haunted wax.[break][break]

"i do see the DRK triad as a threat, certainly."[break][break]

the boss leans back to squash what little gap remains between his back and his chair.[break][break]

"however, if you are so impassioned about them, then how, pray tell," he gestures to her, gloved hand open as if to receive her answer as artifact, "can kanto's rockets root out the drk triad?"

He's impossible to read, the way his expression remains stoic, a block of ice amidst an already frigid sea.[break][break]
"Kanto has scientists," she answers, trying not to picture the mangled remains of her parents. "Combining forces could expedite our attempts at interdimensional travel. Then we can be the ones infiltrating the Triad, and not the other way around."[break][break]
They've been on the defensive for far too long. She can no longer stomach the unpredictability of her enemies, the ways they seem to pop up in every imaginable corner of Hoenn - including the virtual.[break][break]
"Kanto also has an army. The extra bodies alone will matter, should the Triad unleash some new horror onto our world."[break][break]
Something akin to Kyurem, perhaps. That had nearly been their collective doom.[break][break]
"If you recognize the threat, what would you have us do? Fighting with the League might further our goals, but it does not keep us safe from an impending apocalypse."

"your ideas are nothing but idealized what ifs." [break][break]

the boss' flat expression, though it is a blank canvas, adorns the lighting of his words. his dry tone betrays that he is unimpressed.[break][break]

He does not answer her question. He slips past it, smooth as silk. She does not let the frustration show on her face.[break][break]
"Every experiment needs a hypothesis," she insists. "What ifs are a necessary evil. I would rather be pro-active than re-active."[break][break]
She feels as if they are constantly on the back foot.[break][break]
"They are anywhere they wish to be. Their assassins have appeared within Area Zero and the Great Chasm. I, and others, have encountered agents of the Triad within the RKS Machine."[break][break]
She folds her arms, regards him with a piercing scrutiny. What use is it to be a Visionary if she cannot see through obfuscation?[break][break]
"They have technology more advanced than our own, but they are, in their own way, predictable. It seems the thing they are most keen on preventing is Avatarship."

seemingly, the scrutiny does little to phase him. his still face is like an icy monitor waiting for the screensaver to shift to an answer already processed.[break][break]

"there is a pointed reason why you are a scientist and not a general." the boss says. "even you, so inebriated with the drk triad, are blind to their base of operations."[break][break]

he stands as a fount of pitch black.[break][break]

"are you expecting me to throw resources, of which we have limited quantity, at a threat we have little knowledge of?"

Nomi lets out a breath she hadn't realized she'd been holding.[break][break]
"I'm not expecting you to do anything."[break][break]
She knows she does not control this man; he will do as he pleases. Such is his privilege, earned through his station.[break][break]
"I'm asking you to care about this - about the threat of the DRK Triad." Darkness has never frightened her, but she's wise enough to temper her own hubris. "You're right, I am not a general. Nor am I a solider." Her expressions hardens. "But the Unown are invaluable to Rocket. Every war effort needs intelligence. My eyes are everywhere: I have embedded them directly into the League."[break][break]
Fraternizing with the enemy is a treasonous offense within Rocket - unless the pros outweigh the cons.[break][break]
"If we cannot spare the Kanto resources, or even our own, then at the very least - allow me the grace to work autonomously on this issue."[break][break]
This is the part where she must tread carefully.[break][break]
"Afford me the amnesty necessary to recruit the League's resources to my cause. In return, Rocket will receive any and all secrets I learn about their leaders and Avatars."

"true autonomy does not exist in rocket." the boss says. "and little you, still so green-eared in your station, have not yet earned that level of trust."[break][break]

he stares at naomi coldly. white gloved hands move about his black clothes like ghosts.[break][break]

"that is not to say that i would wholly prohibit your operations." the boss says. "but like the unown you wield, i have my own methods of surveillance. tread carefully, head scientist, or lose your head."

She does not doubt for a single second that declan walsh's threats are not as real as the air she breathes; not as inevitable as the rising of the sun. She understands exactly what it means to thread this particular needle, to toe the line between his respect and his wrath. She wants to live in a world where he cannot hurt her, but she has to make that world.[break][break]
And so, her death would be a waste, were it to happen here and now. In one month or two. In a year or more. There is so much work to do. So she nods in deference, and she means it.[break][break]
"I understand," she answers. It chills - but does not surprise - her, to consider the other means a man like him might have to spy on her, if not the Unown. It feels, in that moment, like a sudden clash of wills. There is something hidden, even to her many eyes.[break][break]
"I will work within the bounds of my station," she assures him. "I do not think you will be disappointed in what I am capable of learning."
