they've been even busier than usual since the start of the war. even though they're not a field agent, they've found themself cleaning up after some of the messes left behind by the growing conflict between rocket and the league. mostly it means covering shifts for those who are involved, the ones who are too injured (or worse) to continue with their own observations. nikola hasn't been to their own apartment in over a week, sleeping and bathing and everything in between here on the submarine.

needless to say, they're exhausted. but they won't quit while they're still work to be done.

they cradle a mega stone in their hand. it's a recent acquisition, but they've been studying it relentlessly, trying to understand the connection between it and their garchomp. the energy it gives off-- infinity energy, it's been called-- has been a focal point of rocket research as of late. the plan, they believe, is to harness it for other means.

they're so wrapped up in their own thoughts they don't notice somebody else enter the room.

The war is wearing Rocket down, but Fenelle also doesn't show any real signs of slowing down, either. It's effort that needs to be made - and effort that still grants some similtude of rest, even if Fenelle seeks to fill this with restless activity nonetheless. Dee's heard that there's a researcher particularly interested avatar powers and, perhaps, a potential within non-avatars ... the latter part pales in comparison with the mark dee has set on avatars ever since Mossdeep, Sootopolis.

This might even extend to legends as whole, frankly, as dee calms der mind of anger to enter the room.

Their entrances are never quite quiet, but the other still doesn't move, either. From the description, it should be the right person, however ... and in true autism fashion, dee starts signing an introduction for der Rotom tablet to translate into speech to maybe get the other's attention that way, before dee stops. "That's a mega stone, right?" the Rotom translates first then, as Fenelle further approaches - close enough to get a better look, before backing away again.

"You're Nikola Samsa, right?" dee then asks, remembering the purpose of der visit, "I'm Fenelle, Mille or just Fen." Words that probably don't ring any familiarity - unless Nikola followed the SPECTRA gauntlet, there's not too many remarkable achievements under der belt just yet.

"GUH--" they jolt out of their thoughts, abruptly interrupted by a text-to-speech program. they weren't expecting anyone else to be here this late at night. sure, a lot of rocket scientists are just as obsessive as they are, but that means they stay in their corner and nikola stays in theirs.[break][break]

they adjust their glasses. "...yes, it is, and yes, i am." they look at fenelle suspiciously, pink eyes narrowed. "why...?" people don't often come looking for them unless it's research related. but this... stranger doesn't seem like another researcher. they could be wrong, of course, but they usually recognize their own kind when they see them.[break][break]

but before fenelle can answer... the door slams shut without warning behind dem. nikola freezes.[break][break]

"please tell me you know what did that."

Fenelle quickly signs Sorry upon seeing Nikola's startled reaction with an apologetic expression, which is also transmitted by der Rotom a second later, "Sorry." Then, dee seems to look satisfied upon having found the correct person and continues signing, "I have heard you were researching avatars, and wanted to ask if I could ask about your progress there. I recently ... faced off against Council woman Livy and could maybe provide some information, too," Fenelle adds, even if it carries the bitter taste of defeat. A necessary evil to come out victorious should there ever be a next time ... dee isn't even sure if Livy would remember dem or not. But hey, maybe even better ...

However, that conversation is also swiftly interrupted. Fenelle doesn't notice anything, only sees Nikola's startled reaction directed at something behind dem-

"I'm afraid I wasn't that, no," Fenelle replies honestly. Without hesitation, dee walks towards the door, sees if there's anything ... but in the now dark hallway, there's only the currently emerald coloured glow of der Rotom tablet.

Save me ... it displays.

Quickly, Fenelle turns around. "Did you- speak?" Der head whips around to the Rotom, too, who seems confused as well. "Whose voice was that?" If Nikola even had heard anything at all, or if der ghost has heard someone's whispers ...

nikola sighs and takes off their glasses to rub their eyes. they're starting to wish they'd taken a nap instead of staying up late tonight. all of this could have been avoided if they were taking better care of themself... that could be a lesson (but it won't be). "i didn't say anything," they reply wearily. "there's probably a ghost pokemon messing with us, or... something." it wouldn't be the first time this has happened to them.[break][break]

they pull a pokeball out of their pocket, press the button, and release their hisuian typhlosion. flammula stretches out to his full height, then looks around the room, confused. "you feel that too, huh?" nikola comments. flammula nods his head. they turn to fenelle, gesturing at the large fire type. "they say hisuian typhlosion used to lead lost souls to the afterlife. i figure he might help us figure out where our... problem child is."[break][break]

the temperature in the room dips. uh oh, looks like someone's mad. flammula's spectral flames burn a bit hotter, and then... the lights go out.

Fenelle sighs internally - dee had wanted to use that as an opportunity to ask and find out more about avatars while preparing to prove SPECTRA that they need another agent (and that agent is dem), but ... that would need to take a backseat for now as ghostly shenanigans are afoot. Dee regards the Hisuian Typhlosion with curiosity as it appears, nodding at Nikola's words. "Let's hope that ghost is maybe actually willing or well. We'll make it somehow." There's a good enough chance that the ghost might just like messing with the submarine during the spooky times of the day.

And to add to the spooky flair, it's mandatory that the temperature also drops - the fire ghost tries to counteract that a bit, perhaps, as Fenelle feels a bit more warmth coming from him, as ... darkness. Even der Rotom display seems to go out, with the Rotom actually panicking - dee can feel it in the wind that the tablet kicks up as it scurries from here to there.

Holding up one hand, dee manages to intercept the tablet, tapping it a few times to tell it to get into der wristwatch. Settling there, it could morse using vibrations and weak electric shocks as dee is now both blind and deaf. "What's happening?" dee can merely asks as dee stays rooted on the spot - only noticing that something frigid has approached dem from behind ...

the only light in the room now is the light of flammula's flame. the typhlosion keeps a steady blaze going, illuminating nikola's face and part of their body. they're holding a hand up, their expression unreadable. "...stay calm," they say, the reflection on their glasses flickering. "ghost pokemon are typically pranksters-- nothing more than that." they've had their fair share of encounters of the third kind, and they've never actually been injured in the process. certainly, there are more malignant entities out there, but rarely do they act without a reason.[break][break]

their eyes settle on something behind fenelle. shadows that grow longer, approaching slowly... nikola tries to meet what they think are its eyes. "your show would be quite intimidating," they speak to the ghost. "..if it weren't so cliche." a moment of hesitation from the shadow. now is their chance. "flammula-- infernal parade!"[break][break]

the flame burns brighter. a number of wisps are launched at the shadow, hitting their mark. there's a shriek as the creature flinches backwards.[break][break]

there's more movement from beside nikola. they turn just in time for something to swipe their glasses and go dashing off. "--shit!" now neither nikola nor fenelle can see...

Fenelle stays rooted on the spot, focusing on the feelings of doom that seem to vaguely approach and the hastily morsed words from Nikola reach der skin, leaving an electrified feeling on der skin as the screen of the wristwatch simply doesn't want to turn on now.

Dee remains blinded still, even as the room alights, as the Infernal Parade's enough to blind dem in the other direction. There's no telling for dem if the attack has been successful, as dee's made the mistake of looking directly into the flame. Blinking the afterimages away as the flames still burn, dee manages to catch sight of something running away from the other scientist-!

Wordlessly, a Grimmsnarl is thrown out of his ball, being sent on pursuit without a command necessary. Even if the dark fairy is also blind in the darkness that has settled now again, the pink energy of his Spirit Break is enough to aim accurately enough. Hitting the ghost square in the face, the culprit is stopped in its tracks.

"... a Froslass." Fenelle lets out a deep breath, shaking der head. "I didn't think this visit would turn out like that," Fenelle frowns. "Where does that ghost come from?"

both pokemon have hit their mark. the froslass that grabbed nikola's glasses lays in a stunned heap, and the shuppet that had been lurking behind fenelle is down for the count. nikola can't see any of this, though, because their stolen glasses are still being clutched desperately by the nearly-unconscious froslass.[break][break]

the lights flicker back on. nikola stalks over and wrenches their glasses from the ghost type's hands, putting them back on. they peer around the room. aside from their attackers, the room appears to be in order. "i don't know," nikola answers honestly. "it seems likely they're the pokemon of some idiotic trainer who lets them wander around the base unsupervised. i can't imagine why a wild froslass would come here, of all places." the shuppet, on the other hand... they're aware shuppet are attracted to feelings of vengeance, something they imagine they have in spades. whether it's wild or not, it likely came here for them.[break][break]

nikola shrugs, and turns back to fenelle. "i expect they've learned their lesson, now.... though there could be more of them. we should remain on our guard."

At Nikola's words, Fenelle regards the Froslass with a pensive look. Indeed, this one is a rather strange passenger ... and perhaps Fenelle would seek to find its trainer. Though dee isn't sure if the grudge actually goes that deep, but for now, the pokémon remains unconscious and thus useless in endeavours to find its trainer.

"Yeah, that makes sense," dee sighs instead of pursuing that thought, and suggests, "Think we can see if either can be captured and then put on the black market, or something?"

Make it someone else's problem and earn a buck for it, too.

Dee nods, "We should probably not hang back too long either, seeing as it's well over overtime hours." Though hyperfixations rarely take this into account, and the work Rocket does is rather interesting most of the time. Or half of the time. "I just wanted to reiterate that I'm very interested in your work regarding avatars. There's not too much I can do yet, but I got some experience, if you might want some League intel I can get my hands on."

nikola nods along as fenelle talks, finding no problem with der logic. "let's see if we can catch them," they agree. both pokemon have a ball tossed at them; nikola's theory turns out true, as the froslass cannot be caught, while the shuppet is sucked up inside the ball no problem. they don't see much use for a prankster like this, personally, so somebody else can go to the trouble of properly training the damn thing.[break][break]

they gesture to fenelle, sighing. "all this is bound to give me a migraine... come on. we can talk while we walk. i'd be happy to explain some of my work to you." granted, they haven't made much progress, and their work with avatars is only the tip of the iceberg. unlocking 'superhuman' abilities could also unlock the body's other hidden potentials... pokemon tend to be sturdier and heal faster than humans. the medical application of such research could be incredibly important; not just for the world, but for nikola personally.[break][break]

"...i'm hoping to get in contact with an actual avatar who will allow me to run tests," nikola explains as they go. "ideally, my goal is to capture an avatar working with the league-- one i won't have qualms experimenting with a little... my degree is in bioengineering, so if i can get some samples--" they keep going like that for some time, like a switch has been turned on. the trouble with the ghosts is all but forgotten.
