today he was out and about with an actual purpose, something that didn't really happen very often. being on the hunt for specific types of pokemon for a secret project that he was extremely excited to get to work on was going to make his day. he couldn't wait to tell all his friends about it. well, he couldn't wait to tell his friends and coworkers about it. but this meant that he needed to search high and low for pokemon that would actually work well with what he had planned. after all variety was the spice of life and all that jazz. it was a shame that he had to be out here alone. but he also didn't want to give away the game to anyone.

if zac ramsay wanted him to use the water more then by fucking arceus he was going to use the water more. unzipping his boots and kicking off the socks underneath quickly¹. glitch stretched a bit before taking a deep breath. realizing what he was going to need to do. he wasn't standing out enough yet and that just wasn't good enough. so he climbed up onto one of the rocks that overlooked the now melted frozen lake. he knew that it was going to be cold as hell still but that didn't mean he wasn't going to try. luckily² bug-juice was waiting for him patiently³ below the water. glitch himself couldn't exactly⁴ swim but no one needed to know that. after all part of this was using their pokemon. the rocks poked roughly⁵ at his bare feet but he wasn't going to let that stop him. once he was in the water he wouldn't feel it after all.

diving gracefully⁶ into the water he hope that he had aimed the jump properly⁷. his legs had been shaking pushing off from the out cropping of rocks but as soon as he hit the water his entire body felt a little bit numb with all the feeling abruptly⁸ knocked out of his body. thankfully⁹ bug-juice was there waiting, glitch grabbing onto his exoskeleton as the dual type pulled him even further into the icy cold water. it pulled glitch back to his senses as he tried to search keenly¹⁰ underneath the water. it was unfortunate that the water was hard as hell to see through in certain places. but he wasn't going to let that get him down. he would find something under here he was certain of it.

sure he was acting recklessly¹¹ but he wanted to win more than anything. honestly he could probably¹² just steal someone's biome badge but it wouldn't be the same. scarcely¹³ did he ever want to win or do anything for himself so it was a strange feeling for him to have. but he wasn't going to give up on it. if he didn't win this time then the next he would be much more thoroughly¹⁴ prepared for it all. after all he'd never managed to do things like this and it felt... good. for some reason. not that he was suddenly¹⁵ going to change his ways or whatever and become a nice guy. but maybe hard work wasn't the worst thing in the world now. at least for something nice and shiny like that biome badge.

quickly¹⁶ he urged bug-juice towards a large mass at the bottom of the frozen lake. that seemed interestingly¹⁷ enough like a good place to start. and if he got there before anyone else discovered what was in here then he could have first picks on whatever was inside. as he got closer it looked like some sort of ship that had gotten stuck in here. unlucky for them. extremely¹⁸ lucky for him. urging bug-juice forward he watched as the bug type easily¹⁹ smashed through some of the wreckage. carefully²⁰ glitch pushed himself forward to look through a couple of the items, one in particular sticking out as he grabbed it from the floating mass.

the metal from the ship had been sinking quickly²¹ as he grabbed onto it. it was heavier than he expected and was glad when bug-juice grabbed onto him. otherwise he absolutely²² would have been sinking his way to the bottom as well. tucked safely²³ in his pokemon's arms they swam back to the surface, emerging from the water triumphantly²⁴ with a smile on his face. sure he was wet and felt disgusting but he had found an item he could use. a good one at that. Calmly²⁵ the golisopod put him back down on the ground as Glitch clutched the wet metal to his chest with a smug grin.

glitch settles in nicely, laying his head on Chu-e Choi 's lap so that he can relax some. sipping on the soda that had been so nicely handed out to them. "you have a lot more friends than i thought!" but it was meant as a casual dig, between friends. the single pokeball he had managed to win from the egg hunt rested on his bag. at least it wasn't nothing that was good, right? he'd managed to at least get this. and... maybe spending time out here wasn't the worst thing in the world either. not when he had good food and at least one friend to share it with. "that's okay, you might have robbed a casino but patty is my dead beat baby daddy." he wasn't going to elaborate further on that, just laugh to let everyone know that it was a joke.

- chose the soda
- porygon is still taking photos of everyone

he knew that someone would probably scold him for the use of the @ everyone system but he also knew it would probably be his bestie Chu-e Choi. so he wasn't really worried about it. he knew that deep down the underboss thought the same thing that he did about the way that this place was an absolute shit show with hygiene. "you should get a face mask Leon Vercetti , it'll really help clear up some of your pores that are tightened up in all the wrong fucking ways. if you're gonna sit around here you need to help promote good hygiene!" having more members down here that were already cleaned up would encourage people to come in and get their shit done. if not then his conkeldurr could always start rounding people up.

"you should use it if you like it, i have about four more tubs of stuff that cereal is still carrying down here." so it didn't matter who wanted to use what it was all going to get brought in and used eventually. digging through one of the tubs full of facial materials he found a mask he thought would be nice for leon. "here, this is called dew you love me. it's red and will match your wine. use it on your face." he tossed over the gel face mask and an applicator over to the blond to take a look at it. "it prevents premature wrinkles after all." and those were just as evil as they were if he was being honest.

DM: ATTENTION ROCKETS!! ARE YOU GROSS?? DO YOU USE 8-IN-1 SHAMPOO?? DO YOU FORGET TO WASH YOUR FACE?? WELL WORRY NO MORE! SHOW UP TO THE BATHS FOR A FREE ROCKET SPA DAY SPONSORED BY YOURS TRULY! GLITCH MAVERICK!!

glitch cackled as he sent out the message, knowing very well that tons of rockets just simply did not take good care of themselves. what was the point of being part of an evil organization if you didn't look good? like... you were just asking for your wanted posters to look bad. what was the point of having really cute uniforms if you didn't actually look good in them because your hair was a pile of grease? absolutely no point whatsoever. he hated this place and how bad it stunk of men who forgot how to wash their asses. so that's why he had a set up going in the baths. of course he'd managed to rob a bath and bodyworks to do it but did that really matter right now? no. tubs and containers of self care products and cleansing products that this place was desperately lacking in. maybe now he could get some of these guys to care about hygiene beyond a shampoo they also used as a tooth brush and nails that looked like they'd been dragged through mud.

hello everyone, tldr glitch used his porygon to send a message to everyone in rocket's phone and get their attention bc y'all nasty nasty. drop in and drop out do whatever you want just don't bring your fucking 8 - in - 1 shampoo unless you want it poured down the drain.

feeding time was a flash of teeth and claws and scales and the sound of glitch praying that one of these little monsters weren't going to take off his fingers as he fed them. the only one that behaved was slushie and that was simply because it had to be hand fed. everyone else was a volatile bag of violence. it wasn't as if he never fed them. in fact he fed his pokemon regularly every single day. but yet still he was rapidly pulling his hand back from bowls and cups and plates that were filled to the brim. if that wasn't love then he didn't know what was.

he curled up on the floor, phone in hand as button stared at the screen with him. it was another one of those days. the terrible ones. so it was better for him to just stay in side. away. and with his pokemon. button understood somehow the feelings that glitch had on these days. the ones that made him feel terrible and dead inside all at once. the days that made him feel like too much. it was enough to make him want to vanish. but instead he stayed inside, with button, watching youtube videos on a farfetch'd cutting things in half with it's leek. tomorrow he wouldn't regret this alternative.
