Nomi was pleased to find herself within the RKS Machine once more, this time with Lulu. She had been eager to show her mentor the inner workings of the machine, proud of Rocket's work to decode the SEAL STONE and enter its simulated universe.[break][break]
"It's them," she confirmed. Beside her, Kallistatus floated, ever vigilant. It was especially on guard within the RKS Machine; after all, this was where it had switched sides, changed its loyalty from Holo to Nomi. It was keen on protecting its Avatar from future meddling by the DRK Triad.[break][break]
Nomi had told Lulu the whole story, of course. She'd published a report, but had wanted to make sure Lulu heard it directly from her. After all, the other woman had a history of suspicion regarding the Unown. Nomi could not really blame her for it, as the Unown were (rightfully) associated with the DRK Triad. Nomi's decision to love them had changed that on a fundamental level, however, at least with some of the Unown.[break][break]
"Let's resist," Nomi decided. "I want to hear the message they always give."[break][break]
The more there is, the less you see.[break][break]
"I hope you can come to trust them like I do," Nomi added softly.

It was a good question. She had also made her way through the same simulated scenarios dozens of times: and every time she had encountered the one that hinted at an Ascended Hall of Origin, she'd never been able to actually reach it, much to her chagrin.[break][break]
But that was before the Cave of Origin. That was before the book.[break][break]
"We have more information to feed the machine," she explained, matter-of-fact. "New data, new materials. The Violet Book that manifested within the Cave of Origin during Chien-Pao's attack - I believe the mythology within will be able to provide us with more robust simulations."[break][break]
She had already ordered the experiments, they would be well under way by now.[break][break]
"Come with me into the machine," she urged. "Holo's appearance was something of a glitch. Perhaps we can uncover others."[break][break]
Let this be an alliance, not just between Rocket peers, but between beings of the ancient world - Necrozma and the Unown.

Kallistatus had lived countless centuries. It had seen the birth of the universe, witnessed Arceus's JUDGEMENT at the moment of creation, and had watched each and every other life-form come into existence, struggle, grow, evolve. It was wise and ancient, patient and keen, and it had dedicated itself to The Visionary because she had dared to show it the affection it knew, on some fundamental, primal, unspoken level, that it deserved but had never received.[break][break]
As it turned out, accepting the love of Naomi Sato meant even the Unown had to wash windows now and again.[break][break]
Kallistatus had never cleaned anything before, but it didn't seem all that difficult. It took a moment to observe the other Pokemon taking part in the task of purging the Rocket Submarine of its various blemishes, scuffs, and stains, then decided that the best method would be to simply conjure a HIDDEN POWER to blast away at the dirty vessel. After all, such an ability had the unique quality of adjusting its type to match the desired outcome. If water was needed to clean, then water would manifest. Easy.[break][break]
It was not so easy. It took several attempts to get a small round window clean. Kallistatus hummed softly, glowing with power. It supposed not even the ability to warp reality could make a chore feel any less...well, like a chore.[break][break]
Humans had it rough.

Their silence on the matter of Arceus's current location did not deter her: it had been the expected response, after all.[break][break]
"The last time I encountered a member of the DRK Triad, it was in the RKS Machine - and I don't mean the simulations themselves: Holo attacked me in the flesh. Whether it is by Unown or some other method, they are able to infiltrate that virtual space, and seem to have some inherent connection to it."[break][break]
Nomi had long suspected that the DRK Triad were backing, if not entirely responsible for, MACRO COSMOS, the mysterious technology company in possession of some truly alarmingly accurate personal details about Hoenn's citizenry. The Rondez-View of Luv game had seemed harmless on the surface, but Nomi had not been fooled. There were oddities about it that reminded her of the eerily accurate simulations conjured by the RKS Machine.[break][break]
"I believe we can use the machine to find them again," she continued. "Now that I have returned from the conflict at the island off Dewford, I can turn my attention back to it. Perhaps we can use it to bait them into appearing once more."[break][break]
She did not mention her plans to search for the DRK Triad via the Unown Dimension with illeana reyes. There were precious few she would trust with the knowledge of that budding alliance, for the time being.[break][break]
"Besides that, they seem to show up whenever a new Avatar is about to be chosen. For that reason, Rocket ought to keep a close eye on Admin howard slayte and Head Scientist Amor Rose, given their recent acquisitions of Regice and Deoxys respectively. Deoxys once blessed former Underboss Decker, as you know."[break][break]
She paused, considering.[break][break]
"Admin Bee, as well. I think the strange dark Moltres that manifested out of the Violet Book in the Cave of Origin...noticed him, before it fled."

FIND YOURSELF A STAR (11/7)
SEA: NO (RESURFACED TREASURE) (11/20)
ULTRA DEEP SEA: NN #3 (11/28)
THE LIGHT OF LEARNING (12/4)

summarize 2 plots that are in-progress and being threaded:

1. THE VISIONARY'S BURDEN[break]
YOU ARE WORTHY, NAOMI SATO. NOW YOU CANNOT UNSEE THE BEGINNING, AND TOGETHER, WE WILL SEE TO THE END.

Ever since becoming the Avatar of the Unown, Nomi has come to believe that she is responsible for preventing the apocalypse. Nisa Holo did not want her to become The Visionary, but the Unown chose her anyway: Nomi interpreted this to mean that her new powers (the gifts of the Unown) ought to be used in opposition to the DRK Triad, first and foremost. After all, Kallistatus, the shiny Unown-K, switched sides when given the choice - choosing Nomi over Holo.[break][break]

Unable to "unsee" the "bigger picture" now - a war that will be waged on a cosmic scale in the very near future - Nomi feels an incredible sense of urgency to recruit all of Hoenn's most powerful Avatars, political leaders, and Pokemon trainers to the cause of defending Hoenn against the DRK Triad and their destructive agenda.[break][break]

Nomi now views the ongoing faction conflict between Rocket and League as a waste of time, resources, and valuable lives (human and Pokemon alike). She believes that everyone ought to turn their energy towards the "real war" (DRK Triad vs Hoenn) rather than squabble amongst themselves. Therefore, when the mysterious island off the coast of Dewford drew League and Rocket forces like a magnet, Nomi not only jumped at the opportunity to practice her new powers with her Rocket peers (most notably with Cillian Quinn, BARNABY FINCH, marcus kotov, and Aurelie Lefevre), but use them to recruit powerful members of the League to her cause.[break][break]

The "Visionary's Warning" reached several members of the League (most notably: Navy, lam logan, Isaac Merlo, and Greyson Connors), with varying results. In addition to revealing her Avatarship to the League, she also outed her "true identity" to illeana reyes - trusting the other woman to be willing to collaborate with her in secret, understanding the gravity of the grim future they will face if they do nothing to oppose the DRK Triad.[break][break]

Now Nomi must grapple with whether or not the League and Rocket will be willing to set aside their differences to focus on the DRK Triad, shouldering the burden of prophecy as the year ends...[break][break]

2. ALL PATHS LEAD TO GOD[break]
Ever since the creation of the RKS Machine, Nomi has been intent on finding Arceus. She not only believes that Arceus is the key to stopping the apocalypse heralded by the DRK Triad (see related plot above), but is also the key to understanding the interconnected nature of Hoenn's various anomalies (such as the connection point between Terastallization and the Interdream Zone).[break][break]

Inspired by the inexplicable "dream of Galar" she ended up in after the conflict at the Ancient Tomb, Nomi has begun to turn her scientific attention towards interdimensional travel. Already familiar with the Unown Dimension, Nomi hopes to learn even more about the nature of space-time distortions, as well as the various rifts she and her Rocket peers have been exploring over the past year (Ultra Deep Sea, Lesser Megalopolis, etc). The more paths she can travel through, the more likely she will be to find the one that leads to Arceus (...perhaps all of them do...)[break][break]

Nomi continues to leverage both her position as a Rocket Head Scientist and her position as a PhD student at Slateport University to aid her search for Arceus, leaving no stone unturned in her scientific studies, intent on taking advantage of Rocket and League resources alike to advance her understanding of interdimensional travel.[break][break]

if an avatar, summarize how you've utilized[break]the legendary/avatarship for collaborative narrative:

1. AVATARSHIP: THE VISIONARY (UNOWN)[break]
The Unown are inextricably tied to the DRK Triad, as made clearly evident by the overarching siteplot. Because of that, and despite the fact that the Unown Avatar is technically Rocket-aligned, I have chosen to pursue a very collaborative and (hopefully!) intriguing narrative involving both the League and Rocket (as well as canons and non-canons alike).[break][break]

I am doing this by honing in on the "bigger picture" war between Hoenn and the DRK Triad, and having Nomi set aside the League/Rocket faction conflict in favor of dealing with the region's "true enemy" (this focus is both IC for Nomi and OOC of interest to me, her writer). This is not a defection plot by any means - Nomi is very loyal to her Rocket found family - but rather, an exploration into the "necessity of neutrality" when facing down an impending apocalypse.[break][break]

I write the Unown as very "biblically accurate", in terms of their connection to Arceus: I see them as the oldest living beings, having been present at the moment of creation (the birth of the universe). I am extremely fond of their spiritual motifs and religious symbology - as the "eyes of God", most notably - so I am excited to be exploring a prophetic role for Nomi, their Avatar (The Visionary is a title that aligns well with the oracle/prophecy/divine messenger themes). As I am exploring her relationship with the Unown, I am constantly attempting to show the somewhat contradictory dichotomy between the Unown as impartial observers of humanity's various struggles over the centuries and the Unown as having chosen Nomi precisely because she loves them (a very human concept, and not impartial in the least).[break][break]

I see Nomi's Avatarship as an amazing narrative opportunity to pursue unexpected alliances (ex: between League Head Scientist illeana reyes and Rocket Head Scientist Nomi) as well as unexpected conflicts (ex: between Rockets who disagree with Nomi that her "save the world" agenda is more important than the ongoing conflict with the League). In addition, her Avatarship and "greater purpose" as Hoenn's savior goes so far as to affect Nomi's personal life / interpersonal relationships (ex: creating wonderful drama and character growth opportunities between her and her girlfriend parker jones).[break][break]

I'm really excited to continue unraveling the mysteries of the Unown, and facilitating more and more characters (across the site, canons and non-canons alike) getting to experience unique and narratively impactful moments such as visiting the Unown Dimension.

any notes/comments:[break]
Truly blessed to be trusted with writing the Pokemon universe's biblically accurate angels a.k.a the eyes of God ♡ [break][break]
But in all seriousness, thanks for writing with me, everyone! You all make me a better writer and a better person and I'm so happy to be here!

If she were not already accustomed to speaking with beings that had been present at the universe's creation, perhaps she would find it more jarring to hold a conversation with one as ancient and all-encompassing as Necrozma. But Nomi did not look away, did not flinch when she met the creature's gaze as it spoke through Zev Harcourt, understanding on an intrinsic, primal level that this was an important moment - because it was a rare opportunity to practice dealing with such immense, world-ending, incomprehensible power.[break][break]
Which was what she would be dealing with - a thousand times more potent - when she eventually faced Arceus.[break][break]
"Then we are aligned," She replied, pleased. "We wish for the very same thing. With one minor caveat, of course."[break][break]
Kallistatus, sensing her emotional landscape - the urgent fervor of one who could see just how close they were to their doom - floated closer, and on the table in front of Nomi, shimmering blue crystals in opposition to Zev's black armor sprung up from the smooth wood, twisting into the shape of the entity the DRK Triad supposedly answered to.[break][break]
"You may kill them all, if you wish. Their lives mean nothing to me. All I ask is that - should the situation allow for it - you let me interrogate them first. You see, I am intent on finding Arceus, and I believe they know where to find it."[break][break]
She doubted Necrozma had such an answer, but a small hope sparked within her regardless: after all, this one had been to realms beyond their own. If it had any inkling of God's whereabouts, she hoped it would say so.

Worried? That did not bode well.[break][break]
Nomi did not reveal her own concern, however, keeping her expression decidedly attuned to pleasant neutrality. She held out her hand as if expecting him to immediately share his report with her, but seeing the protective way he held onto the papers, she hesitated, lowering her palm to the polished wood of her desk.[break][break]
"I would be happy to review your research," she answered evenly. "Why don't you have a seat, and tell me everything?" She eyed him. "I can certainly understand the desire for a second opinion. It is a best practice amongst scientists to always double check our work with our peers."

Delicate arms immediately wrapped around the weary Underboss, pulling her into a tight embrace. The strangeness of the moment faded as instinct took over: here was an anguished woman, pushed to her absolute limit, seeking the only comfort available in the aftermath of her most recent ordeal. Perhaps the threads of fate that had brought the ruinous snail to Elisabeth's doorstep in the first place were the very same ones that now endeavored to place the most vulnerable version of her - abandoned by said Patron - in Nomi's capable and caring hands. Every time Nomi thought she understood the nature of their universe, it surprised her again and again and again. Everything was connected, on a macrocosmic and microcosmic level - the Unown had taught her that much already.[break][break]
The truth of it was quite simple, really. This Elisabeth was a freshly cracked chrysalis: the creature birthed could be destroyed so easily, should the wrong person come across her in such a state. To be tasked with protecting her during such a rebirth...it felt oddly appropriate for Nomi, who's power manifested, at its core, from a place of love.[break][break]
And if there was anyone who needed to be loved, needed to know that hate was not the only option, it was Elisabeth Fiorelli.[break][break]
She will resent you more for this, a small voice in the back of her mind cautioned. When she's whole again.[break][break]
"I am sure that you were brilliant," Nomi reassured the other woman in a soft, yet firm tone. "I am confident that if anyone could stand against those two, and give them utter hell, it would be you."[break][break]
Mentally, she willed the Unown-A that was still with them to go in search of FERNANDO SILPH and freya morningstar - whichever one it could find first. Perhaps, if they were lucky, the two would still be together. It disappeared, leaving Kallistatus as the singular sentinel watching over the two women.[break][break]
"All you have to do now is hold onto me. I can take us back to the Rocket submarine."

Nomi smiled as the Flareon approached, his curious nose making contact with her hand as he sniffed. Valerian prowled forward, stepping in front of Nomi and nudging her hand away with an air of jealousy. She chuckled, then stood up again, allowing the two Illumina Pokemon to interact. After a moment, Valerian seemed to accept the Flareon, and the two began to paw at each other affectionately.[break][break]
"We know frustratingly little about the distortions, so your interest in them is most appreciated," Nomi explained. "The more people studying them, the better." Knowledge ought not be gate-kept: the conflict between Rocket and League was wearing on Nomi, precisely because it slowed down their collective progress.[break][break]
"Other legendaries? Hm, well, I have long suspected Palkia and Dialga may have some connection to the space-time distortions, for obvious reasons: one can manipulate spatial reality, the other has control over time." She shrugged. "I am far more interested in the Unown and what they might know, however."[break][break]
Something occurred to her all of a sudden, and her crimson eyes widened.[break][break]
"I just realized," Nomi said, apologetic. "You obviously know who I am - since you came to my workshop - but I haven't asked for your name." Her smile turned sheepish. "And does he have a name, too?" She glanced down at the Flareon.

Waves crashed against a secluded, unmapped cliffside: high ground above a lonely seaside, unknowable save for those willing to risk the turbulent winds and massive, jutting rock formations to reach its misted peak.[break][break]
Nowhere was unknowable - nowhere was inaccessible - to the children of creation, however.[break][break]
A figure, small in stature, pink hair whipping about her rounded, reddened cheeks, manifested out of thin air outside the secluded cottage built upon the rocky spire. Stepping through the rift formed by her kin, she faced the home of the Peacemaker with a curious resolve. The sky high dragon was nowhere to be seen, but that did not mean it wasn't watching. Wasn't present.[break][break]
It knows we are here, she understood, through Kallistatus's chronicled awareness of the universe's various deities. And it let them approach because it likely recognized the Unown for what they were, first and foremost: messengers.[break][break]
Nomi moved lightly through patches of pebbled grass, approaching the home of Eva Morales with respect for her station. This was a woman Nomi had long hoped to converse with, and now, more than ever, it was imperative that they collaborate.[break][break]
She knocked.

The Kartana regaled Sigma and Zeta: the Unown-S and Unown-Z swirled around them with enthusiasm as tales of heroic battles and legendary blades were spoken into existence in the language of creation.[break][break]
Nomi was oblivious to it, however, too riveted was she by the sudden influx of raunchy texts from parker jones. Hearing someone approach, she looked up from her phone, blushing profusely and grinning like an idiot, to see Aurelie Lefevre smiling back at her with a complete lack of awareness regarding Nomi's compromised state.[break][break]
"Oh! Aurelie! Hello," she replied, scrambling to regain her composure. A finger idly tugged at one of the ribbons around her neck. "You look stunning, as well."[break][break]
Which was true, in fact. Aurelie's red dress perfectly complimented her fiery hair, and the plain, utilitarian eyepatch she often wore had been replaced by something far more extravagant and bejeweled. It made her whole face sparkle with a certain resplendence. I wonder if she has a date, she thought. If she didn't, certainly someone would ask her to dance, Nomi hoped. Maybe she would have, had she not been so thoroughly ensnared by another.[break][break]
"Miss Hasegawa is quite talented at hosting parties," Nomi continued. "The casino looks fantastic." She paused. "You'll have to excuse me, though, I - "[break][break]
Before she could finish her sentence, however, a blurred purple shape flitted by, ruffling her meticulously curled hair as it passed. Kallistatus intercepted the creature, and as it came to a halt, Nomi laughed, recognizing it immediately as Lulu Flint's devious Poipole.[break][break]
"Penrose! You little sneak," she laughed. "Say hi to Lulu for me, okay? I'll try to find her later."[break][break]
It bounced away noncommittally, suddenly entranced by Shred, who had, arguably, better hair than anyone else in the room.[break][break]
"Anyway, sorry about that, Aurelie. I really do need to - well - I need to find Parker, so, I'll see you later, okay?" She bowed her head apologetically, then scurried away. She pulled out her phone, checking the most recent photo from Parker. Based on her surroundings, she seemed to be on the second floor? Some kind of balcony or alcove.[break][break]

On my way. I wonder what else you'll have for me besides a drink, when I get there? (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

Nomi acquiesced to Kouji's plan, allowing his Umbreon to do the bulk of the calming work. Moonlight streamed down from a break in the dark cloud-cover, and Nomi blinked, eyes adjusting to the sudden beam of light showering the ship in a silvery glow. Alpha floated forward, keen on protecting her should the Thundurus choose to attack...but it seemed the WISH had been enough to placate it.[break][break]
"Where will it go?" She wondered, watching the Thundurus retreat after a final glare in her direction. "The simulation never lets us see." A hint of regret. Even as she said it, the world around them began to break down, pixelating into nothingness.[break][break]
"Thank you for your assistance, Kouji."

Nomi had not been back inside the RKS Machine since her altercation with Holo. It wasn't that she feared encountering the woman again - quite the opposite. It was simply that she had been too busy, primarily with the mysterious island that had popped up off the coast of Dewford. If anything, Nomi was extremely keen on finding the DRK Triad again - be it Holo or one of her colleagues. They were Hoenn's true enemy, after all.[break][break]
The eager young woman who had asked Nomi to take her into the RKS Machine was vaguely familiar. It wasn't until she finally introduced herself that Nomi remembered where she'd seen her before: she took part in the SPECTRA trinity trials. There wasn't time to look up her performance results prior to their RKS journey, but curiosity would certainly lead Nomi to investigate afterwards. She seemed enthusiastic and intelligent, though.[break][break]
All around them, the familiar sight of the Ruins of Alph loaded, pixels transforming into realistic rune-carved stone. Kallistatus hovered by Nomi's shoulder, a living Unown inside of a simulated haven for its kin. It seemed especially on guard, which made sense - it, too, was on the look-out for Holo, its former master.[break][break]
"Welcome to the Ruins of Alph," Nomi said pleasantly to Xenon. "This part of the simulation will attempt to entice us further into the cavern."[break][break]
A buzzing began to sound from Nomi's pocket: her phone speakers echoing the mysterious melody of the Unown. She was very familiar with that song now, having heard it, much more potently, in the Unown Dimension.[break][break]
"You wanted to see what would happen if I came here," Nomi recalled. "It's an interesting proposal for an experiment, one I have, admittedly, not had much time to test myself. What exactly did you have in mind?" She smiled. "I can attempt to warp the reality of this place, for example."

Nomi's mind strained under the weight of the information casually dropped upon her, like an unexpected boulder falling from above. Neurons fired, thoughts connected, and at the end of the cognitive tunnel, a sudden, stark, knife-edged clarity.[break][break]
She fought FERNANDO SILPH and freya morningstar and survived, but somehow the altercation severed her ties with Wo-Chien - at least partly.[break][break]
- and, perhaps even more astounding - [break][break]
She had two of them. She's always had TWO of them.[break][break]
Tapu Fini. Goddess of strange waters, deity of nature's revenge, guardian of grief. It had once pledged itself to the very Councilman Elisabeth had supposedly fought, but Nomi had read the reports: she knew that her beloved Lulu Flint and Cillian Quinn had stripped it from him in an act of necessary violence. Nobody had ever been entirely sure what it was - is - capable of.[break][break]
The mist is madness, she thought, and the concept seemed to come from outside of herself, an impression placed upon her like a delicate hand caress. The Unown did not have much in the way of hard evidence on this matter, but they remembered everything that had ever brushed shoulders with creation, and Tapu Fini was incredibly dangerous. That much was certain.[break][break]
"And where are they now, Elisabeth? Fernando and Freya? Did they escape?"
