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

• 1. FERN + PIGEON POWER HOUR[break]
  Admittedly, a fair deal of Fern’s attention has gone to the new development that comes in the form of their attachment to the shiny Tapu Koko uncovered during an exploration in Lesser Megalopolis. Since then, Fern has been chaotically navigating avatarship with a creature as fickle as they are. Having been separated from Tapu Koko during the extent of Goodby Galar, and with the nature od the dream resulting a reversal of learned skills, Fern has very little control over their abilities gifted from their patron. This is made evident in the havoc they unintentionally cause among the few they chose to share the information with outside of the initial exploration group (jayden cross, Marza Volchitsa, Yumi Hasegawa.)[break][break]
  
  Their quiet stems from an inability to decide on how they feel about the nature of the connection and how the bond reduces a degree of their autonomy, though ultimately, as discovered in an encounter with Elisabeth Fiorelli, the draw between tapus will cause revelations whether they are wanted or not. One of the few to now hold knowledge of tapu fini’s state and connection to the underboss strikes Fern with a curiosity—what connects the tapus, and are there true kin to the one they have become avatar to?[break][break]
  
  As they progress, Fern aims to decide whether or not the shared desire to look after one another despite bickering in their strange way is a genuine thing, or only a result of the bond shared. As referred to in the Disseminate meeting, they are hoping to find answers to tapu koko’s existence in the Megalopolan city as well as grapple with the nature of their abilities and how koko’s influence affects some of the more erratic aspects of their nature. Now that tapu koko’s connection to Fern has been fully realized to Rocket upper brass as a result of Disseminate II, going forward I’m aiming to expand this through some unruly league conflict as well as exploration and studies with rocket personnel and science division members.[break][break]

• 2. DUE DILIGENCE VS. AUTONOMY[break]
  Fern is often a bit of a difficult case for me, in observant role, to pin down. By all accounts, they are an admin who holds up their responsibilities and duties. Delegation of tasks, as is seen with @girard in their negotiation to handle some aspects of Rocket’s smuggling and black market ops. Observing and evaluating potential SPECTRA recruits during the trinity trials. Attending official meetings and exploring what is offered in the realm of the RKS advancement[break][break]
  
  They are dutiful, they do their job. But much of this is also a role they play.[break][break]
  
  Fern, at his authentic base level, is much more fickle and lonesome than they tend to present. Their independence has been a driving force of their nature from the start, and it is often at odds with the degree of aggressive, and in their opinion, often blind loyalty that is touted by some members of Rocket. Who they trust and who they depend upon is, in truth, a smaller number than might be presumed. As they point out in a conversation had with Alexandra Briarwood:[break][break]
  
  
  “If a dutiful admin is the kecleon color required to keep me secure, so be it.” They tap their temple. “But a piece of the hive mind? Not at all.”
  [break][break]
  
  As a result, it becomes clear that Fern holds a high degree of hubris and self-confidence, often to reckless levels. This is evidenced multiple times during postdormitum—particularly in their refusal to back down against MATIAS SILPH, even when it becomes exceedingly dangerous. The aftermath of that day, and their injuries as a result, have had a profound effect on Fern, though not in a way that necessarily tips heavier toward Rocket. Instead, they only lean on the few they choose to, as their pride stings and they are forced to accept the fact that they must depend on support more than they are accustomed to. Rather than grow a degree of wariness, however, Fern remains a wildcard—leery of the faith that some hold in Rocket, in ties to Kanto, in accepting the pure and simple glory of rocket while not maintaining separation in the process. [break][break]
  
  As they flounder with their frustrations, they grow more skeptical and more inclined to voice their thoughts (as seen in Disseminate II.) Thoughts that had largely been kept somewhat private and self-reflective as they doubt even their partner’s aggressive dedication to the organization—a frustrating sticking point considering that they feel far more loyal to jayden cross as a person, than they do to Rocket. The exception to their rule of looking out for number one first and foremost. As their bond with tapu koko grows, so too does their outspokenness and spontaneous temperament. They are, as they said, one who fills the roles they need to in order to survive in the best way they know how. But as they lose the thread, will become too tangled together to sort out?[break][break]
  
  Fall in line, or pay for refusing? Hopefully, this unpredictable behavior doesn’t come back to bite Fern too severely, she says, as she laughs to herself and types this out.[break][break]
  
  This was much better before my page crashed and wiped out this plot section. :’3

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

• 1. ✨ TAPU KOKO[break]
  It’s been only a short while, but great fun to start working tapu koko into Fern’s site-based narrative. Fern, who was initially and personally quite opposed to the concept of compromising his autonomy, has found himself tethered to a creature that reflects much of who he is, for better or worse. Particularly one another’s fickle and petty moodiness, which Fern has been increasingly influenced by (though it is subtler st present.) Their parallelism has been interesting to begin defining, and I’ve found that I enjoy the snappy banter that seems to unfold naturally as Fern talks at this thing he doesn’t quite know what to do with. And as much as he detests the fact that his independence is now compromised, and he is annoyed with tapu koko or vice versa more often than not, they’ve already both begun to show signs of a natural desire to protect the other. Whether that is more self-serving than innate loyalty remains to be figured out, but at present in current narratives, their dynamic serves as a cut of levity. Largely because Fern is stilted by a lack of control in maintaining avatarship abilities, and how to even manage tapu koko in general. As their time together expands, my aim is to employ them as a more chaotic and unpredictable force together in navigating collaborative endeavors, whether it be conflict with the league or questioning typically unquestioned methods within Rocket.
