Jonah hadn't paid much attention to the beauty of the city moving around them, in that brief moment of quiet, before she pierced it by speaking up. He'd spent more than enough time out of town, tending to forest fires, and attending to meetings on the submarine. He sort of became more like himself, or atleast he would, after getting his bearings again.
He stood aside, so as to let people in. He looked her in the eye, and again felt the calm of the city moving around them, as if they were large rocks in a stream, in a break in a forest clearing.
He'd seen quite a few boys and girls in his day, sure. But when she turned to face him, exposing the scar running under one eye, he saw a mature woman. Someone who'd lived more of their years more actively than he did, someone whose presence made the 23 year old scooped up from obscurity feel like an overgrown child. He didn't think of her beauty sullied, but rather her strength confirmed. He hadn't seen that many Rockets, but if she were one, she wouldn't be relegated to the kids table with him and Glitch.
Sobering up, he focused on her question. Did he work here. Technically, his job was to staff any Rocket-front business. Any casino where the house always won, any restaurant with a suspiciously big back room, any mining or fishing operation. He paused for a second, then addressed . "Yeah, I just got done unloading the truck. I'll pick up a shift cooking in a minute, but I could go for a smoke right now. Do you want one, too?" He said, kind of deflating and stalling out. One of his chest-pockets bulged a little, in a square shape.





tl;dr: Jonah unexpectedly bumps into another Rocket, while still on edge after being shaken to his core weeks ago in Fortree. He then opens with the kind of thing someone could screenshot and get a thousand retweets on.

Jonah Ferrara could be accurately described as a mess. These days though, he was incredibly cautious. He'd seen for the first time a human whose power looked like that of a pokemon, and been shaken to his very core and called out for his cowardice. Though anyone bumping into him sent a chill up his spine, he tried to put on a confident face. He radiated the kind of overbearing and even menacing positivity that characterized an Andrew WK song. That boy ain't right.
Unlike his usual attire, he wore a denim-blue and white jumpsuit, with a charcoal-grey mesh trucker hat on. Underneath, there was a plain white tee, of the kind you'd get in a 6 pack at a department store. For the beginning of his shift, he was in the back, unloading the truck with an older man and a Machoke that clearly wasn't his. Some packages were actual chilled raw ingredients for the kitchen, some were shipping pallets of pokeballs, though they'd all be going into the same suspiciously big walk-in freezer.
Approaching the front, he propped open one of the glass front doors, letting the mix of warm sun and cool breeze inform the inside as well as the outside. He turned the placard in the window to say "open", and pushed in what few chairs there were. The middle of the floor was suspiciously bare, but every wall in this 1/3 of the building was packed with leather-upholstered booths and wooden tables. Then there was the counter, and behind it, a kitchen, freezer, closet full of cleaning supplies, and a cramped meeting room.
Slightly wired, he looked through the front door and saw... a g-g-g-g-girl? Awooga, eyes and tongue rolling out of his head, etc. Trying desperately to stay in the moment out of his head, he jogged out front and tried to work up the nerve to talk to . "Hey, there! What are you up to?!" He said, kind of deflating and stalling out. Nonetheless, he had a grin on his face.

Everyone in the sub was on high alert. What appeared to be an old exec's Genesect turned loose went from one man's problem to everyone's. The damn thing was scurrying around in the vents!! A bug in the vents!! In a submarine, they could all die in a capsized ship if it got out of hand. If it even had the opportunity to panic and kill everyone.

He wasn't too familiar with some of the other Rockets, so he sent a quick text to one of the few he could remember, . If they could pounce on it here and now, that'd be that. And, he said as much in his text. It felt nerve-wracking already. The cost of failure was even steeper than the last time the two of them were on a mission together, and Jonah still had a lingering sense-memory; of Kill's cigarette smoke piercing the aromatic forest, even in this tightly packed sardine tin with a motor, where body odor clashed with cleaning chemicals like hydrogen peroxide.

One look in my eyes and you know what I came here for.

"--I wish I could get on land already." He whined, standing around. He wasn't so paranoid that he couldn't stand being on the sub, he just needed to smoke a cigarette without 30 people lining up to kick his ass. It wouldn't be one of the fancy ones, either; he had a pack of spearmint Paul Walls and a plastic lighter in one of his yellow jumpsuit pockets.

Take a look at my eyes and you know what I came here for.

Preparing for Genesect to come through at any moment, Jonah paused for a second. He'd never seen it before, but it sounded like a bug type. If he remembered his schooling correctly... He let loose his Unfezant. The crested bird sat next to him, gaudy and jittery just like him.




TL;DR: Jonah sets up camp and waits for Genesect, and calls for aid from Killian Decker.

riot against rankness [ open / mass rocket thread ]

Jonah Ferrara could be accurately described as a mess. Ontop of wearing the black uniform, he wore a bright yellow jumpsuit over it. Despite numerous claims that he could never sweat through the jumpsuit, it was a half-truth. The Rocket uniform wicked away moisture, sure, but it had nothing to do with the cause of the scent of sweat; the trace amounts of ammonia, salt, and urea found in sweat.
So, an @everyone accusing people of smelling unclean came as no surprise. Furthermore, he'd worked with Glitch a couple times, so he hadn't any hostility towards it. That was just how they communicated. Furthermore, back home, he did have an allegedly all-in-one liquid soap that he used for his hair, face, body, laundry, windows, killing dust mites, and cleaning floors. And a mattress with no bedframe. Jonah prepared for the meeting by grabbing a pair of underwear and black mesh shorts to wear after, holding them under an arm like an american football player.
Approaching the spread of hygiene products, Jonah's eyes lit up. "You really outdid yourself this time. I... wow!" He said to , eyeing a tower of bottles of conditioner for hair. He was in awe and slightly intimidated, like the apes in 2001 A Space Odyssey being met with the obelisk. His fuchsia hair looked lifeless when he peeled his beanie off. His single braid truly earned the colloquial name rat tail. Ever the selfish hog, he grabbed a cheri berry body wash, a rawst berry shampoo, and a conditioner that looked utterly foreign to him.
Running to the edge of the water, he slowly peeled the two layers of clothes off of himself and climbed in. He started to open the body wash bottle, and slathered what could be accurately described as a fistful all over his toned cyclist form. To rinse, he simply kicked his feet up and tried to make his body sink for a moment. He had the same warrior-monk calm about the whole thing that had. He didn't even mind that someone sat on the sidelines watching. Well, so long as he stayed quiet.

The woman towered above either of the men. Smoldering in every sense of the word, commanding broad wings of fire that could even hold her aloft. She barked at Killian, with the intense “you should be ashamed of yourself” energy of an adult confronting some teen hellion going too far. However he responded, Jonah shuddered with anticipation. It was abundantly clear that he was faced with a power he couldn’t match or comprehend.

Wanna, wanna watch your eyes

The heat was still unbearable. The tights held firm and wicked away any sweat, but if he pushed his luck any more he’d faint. The fire had already swallowed much of the immediate area.

Dip them in a honey glass

Furthermore, she didn’t even pay any mind to him. The radio earpiece buzzed and clicked to life after a long period of inactivity; the fire brigade was on its way. In other words, the local authorities were on their way.

Mirror mine, Roll them high

With the news of the fire brigade on their way and Stormy putting her foot down, the only thing left to do was pack up his belongings, without making any sudden moves. He bent down and pulled up his yellow jumpsuit, slipping it back on but not zipping it up yet. He then took a knee, and scooped up the Torchic into his arms, obscuring the candy-red R somewhat.

Wanna make them, Drip away

They’d already collected a sample, and the opportunity to capture the Zarude had slipped from their grasp. He did all that was left, Torchic in his arms. He turned in the other direction and hauled ass. With the mix of actual smoking foliage and secondhand smoke attacking his senses, he’d try to look like a scared civilian as he ran away.

But, something couldn’t go unacknowledged. Jonah folded his arms to hold the Torchic under an arm as if he were an american football player, so as to fiddle with his radio headset. He tapped the button, and tried to address the group, having never learned their names. "If I stayed here, I would slow everyone down. Not to mention, the mission is effectively over, until we can actually fight that thing. If we need to regroup, you can find me in Mauville."


TL;DR: Exhausted and truly out of options, Jonah retreats, without shame or guile.

Near the Zarude, but far enough to escape its ire. Luxio was caught up in not only the ensuing earthquake, but also a surprise Shadow Sneak from what looked like an immobile Aegislash. The cat barely stood, and Jonah rushed to dig out a pokeball from his pocket, withdrawing it with a red beam.

Wanna, wanna watch your eyes

The heat was unbearable. His Rocket tights underneath wicked away any sweat below his collarbone, but he felt like he was gonna pass out in his yellow padded jumpsuit. It was now or never. He unzipped the jumpsuit fully, and stepped out of it. He stood there, in the kohl-black tights with the candy-red R across its chest.

Dip them in a honey glass

Once again, Killian seemed surrounded 2 to 1. He crouched next to his tattered jumpsuit and dug through the pockets, pulling all of the pokeballs into the pockets on his sweatpants. He stamped out the little embers catching on his jumpsuit's pantlegs from the scattered burning tinder surrounding all of them. He clenched his teeth, sucking air past them with discomfort.

Mirror mine, Roll them high

While Luxio was out of commission, he had to choose. Injured Manectric, or a Torchic that could do little more than buy time. It was now or never. He chose Torchic. Perhaps, if he made the flames all the more dire, they'd all have to run their separate ways. After all, Killian already obtained a vine sample.

Wanna make them, Drip away

Jonah made his decision. He picked the pokeball that held a Torchic, and bounced it off his slate-grey boot. As the restless bird stared down Aegislash, Jonah growled. He put two fingers to his lips and sicced the bird on the blade arrangement. It used Flame Burst, a wide gout of flame that'd hit something and explode regardless of if it made struck Aegislash, given all the tattered trees in the vicinity.

But, something was bothering him, distracting him even. He looked up at , making her proclamations  about 'securing peace' being a lie. A vein between his collarbone and chin stood up, but with his body beet-red and his face drenched in sweat, it could be hard to notice. "I didn't need to believe their little seminar, I needed to stop 'skipping' lunch. I don't know about him, but I did this because I don't know what I'd do if this didn't work."


TL;DR: Exhausted, and down to either an injured Manectric or a Torchic that was clearly no match for Charizard. Jonah stalls for time yet again by getting in an argument.

Near the Zarude, but far enough to escape its ire. He couldn't help but feel bad for Killian, stuck staring it down for a moment that seemed to stretch on, like a repeating part of a song that makes you think there's something wrong with the CD. Jonah put a palm to the brim of his black beanie and moved it in a little circle, so as to blot the sweat pooling on his forehead in the temperate forest-- made all the hotter by the occasional gout of flame going off.

He felt a twinge of guilt, as moved in on . He promised he'd stall anyone who got closer, and was quite frankly without excuses if he got grilled on it later.

One look in my eyes and you know what I came here for.

"Is there room for one more?" He yelled emphatically, as a vein on his neck stood up. Jonah forced a weak grin, and dug around in his pockets for pokeballs with one hand. With the other, he pulled the zipper up on his jumpsuit. The heat was killing him, but if these people associated his face with the candy-red R, he'd be a liability now and forever. He only wore the tights to wick away the sweat of the long commute to the job site. The faint second-hand smoke nearby made his eyes widen, and he groaned, seemingly having forgotten his cigarettes at home.

Take a look at my eyes and you know what I came here for.

The Aegislash sailed overhead, making him flinch. The sample was already obtained, but they'd have to wait on actually capturing Zarude. Worst case scenario, he'd have to abandon it altogether to not leave Killian in league custody. He gritted his teeth for a moment. Would jail be better or worse than his mattress with no bedframe at home? All of the hair on the back of his head stood on end. Not only had Ms Llewellyn made her entrance, but he could also spot nearby with her Metagross.

Jonah made his decision. He picked the pokeball that held a Luxio, a black and powder-blue mountain cat he got in a swap-meet with Ms Wolfe. He dropped the ball as he raised the toe of his grey Rocket uniform boot, releasing the Luxio and kicking the ball back into his hand. Upon awakening, the restless cat immediately tried to intimidate the two circling the rapidly shrinking space. It hadn't the immediate hostility of Kill's Haxorus, but a cat of this size trying to play could be a threat in its own right. "As nerve-wracking as this is, you're making a slow work-day go by a whole lot faster. I'm not sure how to thank you." He admitted, smiling warmly at the three of them.


TL;DR: Jonah having retrieved his Manectric safely and gotten a close look at the Zarude tried to make good on his promise to stall the intruders. He was loud on purpose. He called upon Luxio, and Luxio's Intimidate triggered immediately.

Jonah couldn't help but grin, watching Glitch seemingly dote on this big galoot, this creature that'd easily make him collapse like a folding chair. There was something charming about this fussy brat trying their hardest to be nice. He almost didn't notice the pokeball he threw stopped wiggling. A little "ding" came, and it sat with its red half poking out of the well-manicured grass of the bridge. His Manectric dutifully picked up the ball in its mouth and walked over to Jonah. It dropped the ball, and sat. It looked up at him and tilted its head slightly.[break][break]
Their meeting was interrupted by the appearance of not one but two pokemon. Neither looked as practical to have as either of the previous two. While he just kind of assumed that that little nerd would love swaddling the tiny bear in his arms, he couldn't think of a purpose for a Medicham, save for trading away or selling directly. Nonetheless, he whistled, and his Manectric trotted over to the Medicham. The hound trotted in circles around it, as the pink creature sized it up. Even if this exchange hadn't gone down, Medicham would've been strong and wary enough to take some... convincing. Manectric galloped towards it, flashing gold and covering itself in a fuzzy field of static. Its wild charge weakened the Medicham sufficiently, but it was responded to in kind with a zen headbutt. Jonah then threw a pokeball, beaning the Medicham in the head before things could get worse. He turned aside, looking over at Glitch. "Did you meet any of the higher-ups, yet?" He asked, thinking about his own incredibly brief exchange with Wolfe, receiving a rather restless Luxio. Furthermore, it was worth knowing if Glitch was gonna be stuck in the minor leagues with Jonah for a while.

The three flying-types approached from above, that left Jonah and Killian on the ground. His mustard-yellow jumpsuit was zipped up all the way so as to hide the Rocket tights, his beanie and single hair braid hiding a Rocket earpiece. Against the blue-greens and browns of Fortree, he could be seen from a mile away.

The scene unfolded, a solar beam pushing people apart without hitting them head on. People were yelling left right and center. The Zarude was injured after not one, but two attacks aimed at it. It'd been thrown right in his face, before Houndoom, but now, there's no way it'd be able to dodge, especially while engaged with the others.

Killian's other idea posed a smaller risk to his Manectric, and he felt just a little bit grateful.

"Thanks. I've got this, now." He proposed at the earpiece, with a hand cupping the radio earpiece to try and blunt any ambient noise. He was irked by the child shouting, but if he kept his head down, he could probably be ignored entirely. Jonah pinched two fingers together and whistled, siccing his Manectric on the distracted Zarude.

An opportunity finally arose. The electric blue and gold hound had a one paw at a time gallop, like a horse. It pushed off the ground and lunged at Zarude, and its bared fangs flashed white and orange in equal measure. A fire fang came out, clipping a hind leg to knock it over.

The Zarude responded in kind by rolling over and lying prone. It then kicked off the ground with both its injured and uninjured hind legs, retaliating in kind by sending Manectric sliding across the ground with a hammer arm from its uninjured front arm. The kicked up cloud of dust obscured the injured hound, and Jonah gritted his teeth. He ran closer to it, and though it could still stand, he retired Manectric from afar with a red beam from its pokeball.

As he snatched a glance at the distant Zarude, he could tell that his original plan wouldn't have worked out anyways. Furthermore, while he wounded it further, he failed to obtain a vine sample or knock it out. While he pondered whether to call his Luxio or Torchic next, he cupped his hand around his headset to blunt any ambient noise. "To the one who burned it earlier, I have Zarude right where you want it... I think. And... It sounds like we have company. I'll stall them if they try to get any closer, but you have to take the Zarude."

The three flying-types approached from above, that left Jonah and Killian on the ground. His mustard-yellow jumpsuit was zipped up all the way so as to hide the Rocket tights, his beanie and single hair braid hiding a Rocket earpiece. Against the blue-greens and browns of Fortree, he could be seen from a mile away.

This mission was so out of his way, so far from home, that he was undoubtedly out of his depth. That being said, it was never supposed to be easy. The continued howls and shrieks of the enraged Zarude made that very clear. The beast's vocalizations were felt as deeply by Jonah as they were heard, as if he were hit upside the head with a tuning fork. Furthermore, the voices in the radio chatter were unfamiliar to him at first.

The orange wings and roaring fire overhead could only mean one thing, a Charizard was also in hot pursuit of the Zarude.

"If I can force a confrontation between that thing and my Manectric, it could very well get paralyzed. If you have another idea, I'll help you as much as I can." He proposed at the earpiece, with a hand cupping the radio earpiece to try and blunt any ambient noise. He was walking carefully after it, with a hand in his pocket. He  started to jog off to the side, for fear of being pinned by falling debris from the struck trees. He dropped a pokeball, letting loose his Manectric. His electric-blue hound sprung to life, and let out that sound that's not quite barking and not quite a 'woof' that large dogs make.  

Ahead, the howling kept up. While Manectric chased the fleeing Zarude from the ground, it seemed to hear its movements in a way that Jonah couldn't. Manectric couldn't scale trees in any way, but it dashed across the forest floor in hot pursuit. The opportunity to leap and snatch it from the air with a Fire Fang had yet to arise.  
"Good lord." He said to himself, quietly.

The league presence didn't bode well. They were to, gasp, try to heal this horrid creature threatening the town. With a temper rivalling a Primeape, no less.

Jonah felt the inside of his jumpsuit for other pokeballs, and happened upon his Torchic, and a Luxio gifted to him by a higher-up. He hadn't a chance with either of them, until the Zarude was cornered and forced to fight. That was why his Manectric was out first.

Jonah looked him up and down, and nodded. “Yeah, you don’t seem like you go outside, let alone to work out.” Not that he minded. Well, the second question dug a little deeper. Before joining the Rockets, Jonah had a series of degrading odd-jobs. He hadn’t what it took to be a good student, and work was hard to come by. He slowly lost all of his friends, too. This was like being rescued by a life guard and asked if you were thinking about a career as a lifeguard. He didn’t even get that far, yet. But, he’d look easy to manipulate, or worse, like a dullard if he didn’t just riff and figure it out later. “I want to be an Admin. I want to be hard to ignore, and worth a lot of money.” Why Glitch had to know this was beyond him. “So, what are your Rocket Goals, as it were?”[break][break]
Their meeting was interrupted by the appearance of not one but two pokemon, neither of which looked like they were from here. He must’ve been getting a little too good at his smuggling job. He turned, and made eye contact with the Unfezant. The crested bird, gesturing and struggling to sit still, reminded him of himself. Jonah seemed to specialize in electric types, and thus catching it instead of knocking it out would prove to be a little complicated. He sicced his Manectric on it, and in a flash of orange, it’s white-hot jaws latched onto the side of the bird, trying to ground it with Fire Fang. Jonah then dug around in his mustard-yellow jumpsuit, and produced a pokeball. He dug his feet into the grass a little, and beaned the bird in the head with a fastball. The red beam from the ball tried to contain it, and the ball sat on the ground wiggling, with anticipation.

He rolled his eyes as Glitch spoke up. Well, atleast he didn’t have to pretend to date him for work again. Having finished a few laps around the bridge, he stopped for a second and started to breathe. He regained his composure, and pulled himself to the side so as to not bother others on the bridge. He put his hands at shoulder-width apart and leaned in as if he was a tree being felled by a lumberjack. He caught himself with his hands and started to do push-ups. His pace was a little slow, but it was important to almost fight against momentum and ensure that muscles moving were the only thing carrying him. To do otherwise would be “cheating” the weight, and denying himself some muscle growth. Having finished 25, one of his arms buckled and he faceplanted in the grass. [break][break]
Jonah sat up from this position, and started to stand. Jonah’s Manectric seemed to recognize Glitch from the other day. The tall hound dutifully trotted over to them and threw himself at the ground on his side. The big dog sunned itself, occasionally reaching out a front paw. Jonah on the other hand pulled the magenta hair from his face and stepped over to that little nerd. He unzipped his jumpsuit a little more, revealing more of the Rocket tights. “I have to wear this to unload the truck and sit in on meetings. I’d look a little different if I went home and changed, instead of going for a jog right after work. But... work is good. Being tired and sweaty is good. Exercise is about measuring yourself against a force that can’t lie to you.” Can’t lie to you. He was stunningly inarticulate and bad with words, but that felt appropriate. After all, what was his job other than cooking, lifting, and lying?
