tldr; thea and flynn's reunion is not at all what either of them expected it to be. perhaps it would've been better to never happen in the first place.  

Unsurprisingly, she doesn't like his idea and she tells him as much.

[break][break] It doesn't come as much of a shock to Flynn, who already knew who would be pulling the strings from the moment that Lulu Flint landed on the rooftop. Her reputation precedes her, and sure enough, she is pulling out gadgets and gizmos that Flynn has seen more than enough times before. It reminds him all too much of the first time that he had to get his cop gear all set up, too many things to keep track of, too many things to remember.

[break][break] He doesn't fight her on it, though.

[break][break] Instead, Flynn puts on the ear piece and puts the thermal imaging camera into his pocket, to be used for later. His interest, however, is piqued when she offers her palm to him and an ant-like device is staring up at him with beady eyes. Fingers close around the small object, and he watches it - impressed - as it attaches itself to the fabric of his jacket. "You make this?"

[break][break] As she pulls out a Klefki and makes a comment, Flynn's tone is wry with his response. "Duly note." He glances back towards the smokestack buildings, and then says, "So, you wanna take my bike, or you have a different way you wanna travel?"

"Shoot 'em dead." [break][break]

Now there was a thought. It wasn't a thought that Flynn hadn't once considered before, especially when the precinct's commissioner was spitting in the face of their captain, probably over something stupid like numbers. Just like in Rocket, Flynn rarely had any weight in the way that the precinct worked. His existence there was intended only to be physical - just stay there, lie low, and do your shit. Any special acrobatics were better left to people more fancy than him.

[break][break] But Lulu knew that. There wasn't a need for the reminder.

[break][break] Though, she felt the need to remind him that she had read the report. Flynn said nothing in response to that, fingers clutching over a bicep, and trying to hide his aggression. There was no need to get feisty - after all, they were on the same team anyways.

[break][break] At her question, though, he was at a bit of a loss. He shook his head. "Nope." She could look over him all she wanted, but there weren't any fancy gadgets to be found on his possession. He wasn't sure if they just didn't have it, or they thought he wouldn't need. Most of his rocket jobs were intended with him - or people like him - in mind anyway, and usually meant that he had to just muscle his way out of any situation if he found himself in one.

[break][break] In other words, they usually left him to the dogs.

[break][break] "Sometimes simple's best. We could just go in through the back, and fuck up anyone who gets in our way." A pause, as he glanced as the horizon where the sun was beginning to dip past the skyline, bleeding orange and purple. "I do know my way around a lockpick." He looked back at her, then added, "I'm pretty good with my hands."

Honestly, he had no idea why they sent him on this mission. 

[break][break] He knew that they still kept tabs on the rockets who left, even if they weren't really supposed to. Their files were still in the database, after all, which Flynn had access to. It had only been a suggestion, off the cuff, that it was funny that one of their old members were popping up in blog posts on underground websites, saying that she'd flamed out. That someone had posted a huge problematic streamers expose and that she'd been on it. There had been a comment saying that the only thing that could save her was a new hobby. 

[break][break] Someone had made a joke, said off the cuff, that it was funny she needed their help again. 

[break][break] Flynn hadn't even been involved.

[break][break] Yet, here he was, standing in front of a painfully suburban house in the middle of Sinnoh. The mission details had been clear. Pop in, see what she's up to, see if she actually was interested. 

[break][break] They'd been friends, sort of. Actually no, not really. Flynn didn't make friends. 

[break][break] With a sigh, he scaled the side of the building, hopped onto a balcony and peered into the bedroom. Yep. He knocked on the glass. "Hey."

"How's the force?"

He exhaled, smoke curling out in the cold January air like a Gyarados tail.

[break][break] She didn't say it, but he could tell the bite behind her words. Though they weren't very close, Flynn knew enough about Lulu Flint to know the hidden disdain that she had for cops. Not that it was particularly uncommon or ungranted.

[break][break] All cops were bastards. He told her that.

[break][break] "They're bastards, as usual, but what can you do?" He shrugged, flicking the cigarette into the ground in front of him and crushing it with the heel of his boot. He folded his arms over his chest as he looked over at their target. It was the typical posh jewelry store you'd find in a city like Mauville, probably full of diamonds, rubies, and sapphires or some shit. Flynn himself didn't care.

[break][break] In fact, Rocket probably didn't either. There was something else of interest.

[break][break] "The report says that they're hiding something special in their vault too. No idea what it is, or if it's even actually valuable, but it must be special if they sent you along too." He glanced at her, sideways. They'd been co-workers, technically, but she'd always been a step above him. The fact that she arrived on a Hydreigon of all things was proof enough for it.

He had never been a fan of heists. 

[break][break] In fact, it was the entire reason why marcel maeda had recruited him over to intel. After spotting a younger Flynn nearly vomiting into a garbage can after completing a particularly unsavory task, the former Admin had taken it upon himself to switch his department. Not that Flynn particularly minded -- he hadn't minded either, months later, when it had been suggested to him in no uncertain terms that he take the police exam and officially station himself within Lilycove. A corrupt police officer was not as uncommon as the public would've liked to believe. 

[break][break] That being said, that didn't mean Flynn wasn't required to do regular missions now and again. The man was currently standing atop one of the building's rooftops, several blocks away from the target. He was waiting for his mission partner, inhaling smoke into his lungs but when he heard footsteps, his head jerked to the sound. 

[break][break] When they approached, he tossed them a pair of binoculars. "Here, take a look."
