“COME JOIN ME, MY SON.
JOIN ME IN THE HARD EMBRACE OF ARCEUS' TEN THOUSAND HANDS.”

Overhead, postal Pelippers and other, swifter messenger birds flew between the houses. As Bill watched, a massive Corviknight took flight from the upper rim of Alta Vista, swooping down to almost dip its cargo in the central lake before pulling up and landing halfway up the far side of the crater.

Bill let out a breath, and gently pulled in another. It was a gorgeous day in Sootopolis. Now where did that old ice cream place get to?

"Hey. Do you have an assignment yet, or can you hang out for a bit?”

"It sounds like we're a perfect fit, then," Bill said, his voice filled with precise enthusiasm. "You have the contacts and know all the spots, and I've lived in the city for damn near forty years. If you ever need help getting around just let me know."

Bill scanned the bare walls, barren corners, and barely living plants of the courtyard. "You're right...it's perfect. I'll have to set something up right away. What do you usually do in here?" he asked, eyes following the flow of black, ant-like figures. The sight of the original uniforms brought back a wave of bitter nostalgia.

"Are you interested in science at all Father Bill?"

"There is nothing more powerful that Arceus," Bill said offhandedly. He said it with total conviction, the way a man might say that the up was up, same as it was yesterday. "So anything that makes us more powerful brings us closer to Arceus." It was a clear connection, and one that most found difficult to argue, let alone refute. 

As the pair looked over the desk, something bumped the floor below them. Likely some sea creature swimming through the flooded lower floors. "What is your specialty, Pryde? I imagine that a man like you, with an interest in the unknown, would  gravitate towards an exceptional field."

Once he was in he slammed the door shut, finally safe from the outside world.

Half the lights in the house were on, and Bill was relaxing in Claude's chair, drinking a glass of ice water. The slender, imported glassware was almost half full of the little cubes, and they chimed pleasantly as he took another drink. Lilycove avoided the brunt of the summer heat by being on the coast, but that didn't mean the nights weren't hot and sweaty. Case in point: Claude.

"You look like you need a shower, Claude" Bill said, his voice light and free of judgement. Bill didn't need a shower. He was spotless. From his creaseless polo down to his deck shoes that were free of sand or grit. 

Bill got up, crossing the plush apartment to open the fridge.
"Let me get you something for that hangover you're going to have tomorrow." He found a bottle of sports drink behind the champagne. "Have a good night out?"

"Are you interested in science at all Father Bill?"

"Science? Why of course," Bill said, unclipping one of the shrunken sphered from a small holster on his belt. "It aids progression, makes us stronger, and gives us a greater understanding of the world around us." His eyes flicked between the derelict signage. the rusted balustrades, and the waterlogged posters. "Nothing brings us closer to Arceus than science."

'Sea Mauville's 10 slogans for a cheerful and fun workplace.
07. Experiments and glass equipment is to be kept in the labs at all times.'

A blade poked out of the wall near the sign, slicing delicately through the corner of the poster before retreating back into the metal, leaving it untouched. Bill approached and knocked twice on the wall. The Honedge popped back out and Bill pressed the Pokeball onto it before re-clipping the device to his belt. "What about you?" he asked, eyes tactfully avoiding Pryde's new arm.

Champions of Piazza Oro Grande [M]

“COME JOIN ME, MY SON.
JOIN ME IN THE HARD EMBRACE OF ARCEUS' TEN THOUSAND HANDS.”

Sootopolis. Land of the strong and home of the financially well-endowed. A ringed kingdom of shimmering splendor where champagne flowed like water, caviar flower like champagne, and where every gentleman, heiress, and child star kept their hard earned coin in the same place: the Piazza Oro Grande. 

It was the place to go if you wanted your cash safe and sound; POG.

Bill lounged in the foyer as beige-suited businessmen flowed past like a million white blood cells battling to fight the infection of poverty with briefcases of life saving money. 

In half an hour, the place would be awash with Rocket. They would try to break in to the vault, and he would be there to stop them. He was going to be a hero. Easy as bleeding out.

“Hoenn needs leadership with a backbone.”
"Gavin, do you know who I trust the most in our organization?" It was a hypothetical, but Bill let the words linger like the aftertaste of burnt coffe. " . I would place her at my back without hestiation. Hell, I'd let her borrow my knife. I trust her implicitly. And do you know why?"

"Because she tried to kill me."

"There is no failure more absolute, more fundamentally crushing, than trying to kill someome. Really trying. And failing. That woman threw everything at me, and she failed. I know that she will never try again. That part of her is dead. It died when i didnt."

"You want a network of people you can trust? Keep your hands quick and your back wide open."

Like a deer in headlights, a wolf eating the palm of the hunter's hand.

For Bill, there was no greater comfort than knowing that the person across from him had already failed to kill him. Ever since that night in the gardens, Bill had felt at ease around Wolfe. He knew where he stood. Above her.

He had defeated her once, wet hands on her face and red fingers pulling at her mouth, and he could do it again. He had only gotten stronger with age, and if she had surpassed him? Well, then she deserved some time on top.  

"It was," Bill said, "and the night is looking better, now." His presence pulled at her. With the fading light the tourists and wanderers had left the park, returning to their lives. "Take off those shades, Wolfe. You won't need them in the dark."

: Bill wears boat shoes. Either enclosed or, more often, sandals like birkenstocks. Because of this he has a slight sandal tan. He mostly wears light colored shoes, in beiges or pale blues to go with the color scheme of his house/Sootopolis in general. His feet are insanely clean, and completely hairless. Whether this is genetic, or due to cosmetic surgery/waxing is unknown. You would need to survey Lars/Claude for more information.
While he doesn't enjoy the feel of grass between his toes, he HAS had blood between his toes on several occasions. One one memorable occasion, his own. His skin is soft, and you get the feeling that he uses salt scrubs exactly as often as advised on the package.

: Zac often goes barefoot, so his feet have plenty of solid calluses and sometimes grass stains. Since he became Avatar this tendency to forego shoes has become more common, as he can heal his body at will. His feet are hairy, but as he uses scented soles for his boots there is a lingering scent of Oran berry between his toes. Like Rowan, Zac knows the subtle and alluring tickle of having seed germinate and grow between his toes, though he has never had this happen while wearing socks.
His foot size is proportional to his
cheer.

“COME JOIN ME, MY SON.

A crashed ship, lodged between uncaring stones and battered by eternal ocean. A crashed ship often meant death at sea. Why, that's how his wife had gone. What a tragedy.

Bill's Minccino Laurence trailed behind, its eyes wide as it surveyed the spots of rust, decay and corrosion. Its fur was as white and spotless as always.

“Hoenn needs leadership with a backbone.”

Bill nodded, then looked around the bustling studio. His eyes slashed through busy interns and babbling 'stars'. "You're right, of course," he said to Gavin. "Your insight is invaluable, my son." He found what he was looking for: a podium.

They crossed the lot, and Bill took up his rightful spot behind the stand. Behind it, be looked like a true Speaker. His form pulled in the eyes of startled workers and performers alike. With a slow, backhanded wave he sent them all back to work.

"Gavin. What do you need?"

Out on the Water [M]

“You drink?”

"No hurry," Bill said. He watched Lulu's throat move as she drank her tequila. "No hurry at all." he repeated, softer this time. Soft enough that the pale breeze might have stolen some of the words. 

"I don't drink. Not anymore, anyway." He said, looking past her at the bar. "Sometimes I miss it. Miss being a dozen years younger and sorely lacking in hindsight." His eyes snapped back to Lulu. The wind twisted her hair like shifting bed linen. It made Bill think of dark, hot places, and hard floors covered in scratches. "But not today. Today I'm enjoying being out on the water. And I'm loving the view."

They rounded the point of Mossdeep, the swathes of mangrove green entangling the shores. Above the silt cliffs rose the Space Center, striking towards the Heavens. Bill felt the background vibrations of the twin engines soften for a beat. The ship course-correcting, turned languidly, before the thrum built back up and they headed out to open ocean. 

"So what's your foreplay?" Bill asked. There were no clouds in the sky today. No respite from the sun, and no hiding from Arceus' sight. "When I ran missions I liked to call my pregame the 'half and half'." He smiled, a slick flash of oiled ivory. "I'd smoke half a packet of Camerupts and drink half a bottle of Grey Zangoose."

"... Bill?"

Bill grinned, his smile wide like open arms, beckoning her inside. "Middle of the road? Well we can't have that." His teeth clicked as he bite off the last word .

"My God Wolfe," he said, eyes piercing right through her dark shades before carving down her form. She looked tired, run down, put through the wringer by life and worse for wear after so many years on Rocket's leash. "You look amazing."

The sun started to dip below the skyline, and Bill slid closer. "Why are you here?" He asked, less an accusation and more a veiled invitation. Why are you here and not somewhere softer and more muffled, entangled?

"i still think it's fucking. listen,"

Balls in hand, the pair stormed the broom closet. Bill threw open the door to reveal the source of the noise.

Inside was a twisted, confusing tangle of blue and purple silk tassels, rolling eyes, and unsheathed steel. The duo -no. Trio?- of Doublade ground together one last time before noticing that their privacy had been ruined. Monocular eyes rolled towards Bill and Theo, and the ghost Pokemon slowly phased backwards, disappearing into the walls. 

"Well that solves that," Bill said, slapping his hands together as if dusting off dried blood. "I could have sworn it was bed springs, but I guess any steel on steel action would make the same squeaking." 

He closed the broom closet, waited a few seconds, and when the sound didn't start again he turned to Beckett. "Middle evolutions are always the horniest. Like teenagers! Ghost and Steel type is a potent mix too. All that restless spirit in such a hard body." He regarded Theo for a moment before heading back towards the courtyard. 

"Beckett, do you know what Honedging is?"

"Are you ready?"

Bill didn't hear a peep from his associates. They must already be on the move, he reasoned. They were professionals, after all, and their silence meant only one thing: inability to respond.

He approached the port-authority, listening outside their office as radio squawked to life inside. There was a chatter and static, something about a fight breaking out. 

There was bustle inside as the officers got ready, and the door burst open to reveal...
not Sarah. Well, that's why I'm here. Bill broke into a sprint, his sandals banging a frantic tattoo on the boardwalk as he intercepted the officers. "Help!" he shouted, waving to get their attention. The trio of port officers turned and stopped, their looks conflicted. "Please, I need your help," Bill said, resting his hands on his knees and breathing hard. "I'm sorry sir, but we have our hands full right now," one of the officers said. "No, you've got to help me. There's a dead body under the boardwalk!"

The trio froze. The leader was the first to recover. She was a sever looking woman with a sneer like a Electrode. "I'll head for the fight. You two get the body." She stuck her head back into the port office and called out in a harsh voice. "SARAH! Put your vest on. You're coming with me."



-Bill is leading the two officers away to the 'dead body'
-Sarah and the leader of the port officers are heading towards the fight
