ATT: Fallers - Video/Action

While repairs on the Warehouse and Museum has continued quite well, new information has come to light.

A theft has been made by a unknown person, presumably in cohorts with Team Rainbow Rocket of a Crystal capable of transferring a large vessel between worlds. The culprit has been described as a "young woman with violet hair" and was "capable of walking with them". There was also a "spherical mecha named Emily" with them.

Details on the theft may be forwarded to @ Nozomi Yumehara and @ Aether Foundation and @ JennyPolice. Please let us know if you sight this woman or the mecha named Emily anywhere on the islands or have any information.

Thank you.

Lusamine sighed and hung up, as she clicked a button. "Cancel my appointments. Of all the situations, why did I become the spokesperson for all of this?"

Wicke smiled calmly. "It's because you're the Commander, and you're a horrible completionist?"

"Wicke..." warned Lusamine, but there was a tiredness to her growl. "Come in!"

Anyone could be at the door to talk to her right now. Any person, at all.

Entrapta Sightings Toplevels - Write your starter and I'll tag in!

Wes doesn't remember much but he remembers driving. While this wasn't the blazing hot desert of Orre, there's more than enough space for him to ride around Melemele on his hoverbike. With his Pokemon egg safely buckled in the passenger cart, Wes drives through the grassy terrain.

"Dude, do you think this is a good idea?" His Rotom, Row, yells, clinging for life and securing the egg below. Wes ignores them. He's not sure what he's doing but... he needs purpose.

And then he sees the woman. The one he's supposed to report.

However, instead of driving away, Wes stops his bike and glares at the woman from behind his chrome sunglasses. He points to Entrapta with his good arm and growls.

"You're the thief, aren't you?"

Yes, he's the pot calling the kettle black, but that doesn't occur to him in the slightest.

Entrapta was in the middle of eating a malasada which she had bought with her own money, when Wes pointed at her.

She looked herself over for a moment, from head to toe before pointing at herself, swallowing the half-eaten bite. "Me? I never stole anything! Wait, do I know you? WAIT. Is that a hoverbike?"

Okay she's just ignoring you now Wes as she's practically draped over your hoverbike now Wes, and cooing over it. "Oooooh four-stroke engine! Can I see under the hood?"

"The crystal..." Wes starts. However, that's all he gets out before suddenly the woman is pouring over his bike.

Wes didn't feel many things but he did feel protectiveness still. He jumps off his bike and stomps over.

"Hey, do you think that's a good idea? Cause it's not."

Wes ignores his Rotom. He reaches to yank the woman off with his enhanced strength.

"No. This is mine."

"Aww, but it's so... so... shiny!" Exclaimed Entrapta, clinging to it, hair and all. She was a lot stronger than she appeared to be, or at least her hair was giving her a lot more foundation to hold onto without her hands which came loose first.

Pouting, she added, "You know, I just really wanted to eat Malasada in peace. What's this about thievery anyhow?"

It certainly was well-taken care of, considering it was a bike from Orre...

Wes grunts in frustration as the woman refuses to come off. He gives a hard tug again, now more focused on just getting her off it.

"You take... crystal. From some ship." He doesn't know the details. He just knows this is the person to retrieve.

"Oh yeah that!" Exclaimed Entrapta, standing up straight and tossing Wes off her with a literal ! over her head in hair. "I borrowed that for Science!"

"You know what they say! Science NEVER sleeps!"

Wes yelps, having clearly not expected that. He spins in the air but somehow manages to land on his feet thanks to enhanced reflexes.

"You can't borrow something if you don't ask first. People get mad."

"Oh yeah! Asking permission..." Entrapta rubbed her chin with her hair. "I did that first I thought. I thought i had that in my to-do list somewhere..."

Wes eyes the hair uneasily. Those were some... impressive... limbs? Weird hair limbs.

"If you didn't get permission, you're stealing..." Wes muttered.

He looks at the hair and cautiously reaches out to poke it. "Can everyone do that with their hair?"

"Well yeah, but science takes precedent! Can't stop when you're on the middle of an amazing discovery!"

"Oh? Naw, just me. It comes in handy when I need to get something off the top shelf."

"Yes you can. You've stopped now." Wes points to the malasada. Lunch is a break, isn't it?

"Did you always have hair like that?" He thinks it's pretty cool, not gonna lie.

"Oh no, I'm still coming up with designs in here!" Exclaimed Entrapta, tapping her head.

"Oh yeah. Some princesses are born with ice powers, some have plant powers, I have prehensile hair. Lots of uses for hair like this! Makes for a nice nest when I sleep in the vents." replied Entrapta.

"Then you can come up with designs as you wait for permission." He knows how Ein gets when Lovrina takes his shit. Wes knows that scientists really should not steal from other scientists. "Also, the bike is mine." Cool hair or not, get off.

"...Sleep in vents. Because it's warm?" God, Wes. You're like a damn child.

"But asking permission is so borrrrrring," whined Entrapta as she slid off bonelessly.

"Sometimes I get an idea and I have to go into the vents to solve it, and I get lost so I just sleep in the vents!"

Entrapta please.

"So is washing your hands but you still do it." Sometimes responding like a machine really did give you insight to... something.

Wes just stares blankly at that response. And then he looks around where Entrapta was before.

"... Where's the crystal?"

"Well see, that's the thing: it's better to ask forgiveness than ask permission. That's what everyone told me." replied Entrapta mirthfully.

"Oh that? I hooked it up to the Big Machine. It'll be done in about three weeks."

Wes is... sure that she's got the saying wrong but he doesn't know much about minor things like 'ethics' that well. He's forced to ask permission from Team Cipher for literally anything but he understands he's a freak and an exception. Maybe that's how normal people or normal criminals did things? It'd seem about right.

"... what big machine? What does it do?"

Ethics? Entrapta? Entrapta would laugh, if she knew she was doing something morally wrong. Wes would come to know this term later, but 'Chaotic Neutral' would be a term he would come to know very well later on.

"Oh it's cool. It whirs and zooms and bleeps and even I don't know what it does! But it needs power. Lots of it."

Entrapta grinned as she stretched out like a cat. "So I'm studying it! For Science!"

Clearly the scientists of Team Cipher agree with the sentiment of 'what's ethics?' The young man stares at Entrapta and frowns.

"Where's the machine?"

"Oh you can't get to it. It's far, far away from here." replied Entrapta airily. "I'm still figuring it out to be honest."

"... Where's the crystal then?" Wes doesn't understand if Entrapta doesn't honestly.

Here's your Lusamine Talks!

Likely it came as no surprise that Yotsuyu pushed her way through the door, bearing a tray of jasmine tea and almond cookies. She offered Wicke a polite smile that included her, even as she turned her yellow gaze to Lusamine, ebony brows furrowing.

"I am certain you have been overworking yourself and not eating. This is but a simple stopgap while I attempt to find something more nutritious for you. Wicke, I brought quite enough to share, so please, avail yourself?"

She set the tray on Lusamine's desk, preparing a cup for her before even thinking of serving herself. "Do you take sugar?"

"Sugar, cream, usual things but if you have sugar it would be appreciated." replied Lusamine, rubbing her forehead tiredly. "It's been trying lately to juggle all of these things at once."

"Aether isn't really equipped to deal with the World Government all at once, but no one wants to hand this over to INTERPOL on a full time basis." sighed Wicke, taking a cup for herself and dunking five cubes into the liquid for herself.

"I had the forethought to bring those with me." Though Yotsuyu herself only put a single lump in her cup, she doctored Lusamine's so that it was light but not too sweet--and so that the cream and sugar would not overwhelm the delicate jasmine flavor, either. At least she was used to such things. Wicke, at least, could help herself--as she'd done, and Yotsuyu offered her a smile.

She set the cup and saucer down before Lusamine, adding three almond cookies to the saucer. "I suppose you have done all the delegation that you are able? I have made myself ready to depart at a moment's notice on my task, and have read up on the information I have been given."

Far be it from Yotsuyu to be remiss in her duties!

"As much as we can, considering the situation given to us." replied Lusamine, taking a long sip of her drink as Wicke took up the narration.

"Alder, Champion of Unova has been notified of the situation since Trip has departed. He's going to meet him at the airport and together they'll be visiting Trip's home town with the Aether members. Alder will send word as soon as we find out what that energy signature Tony and Yuume noticed was in the Unova region."

"Other than that, we've arranged for Dawn, one of Ash's friends and a friend of hers Barry, to meet you at Snowpoint when you arrive at Lake Acity. Don't forget to dress warmly since it's a snowy region." added Lusamine.

"Ah, I suppose I shall have to do a small bit of shopping beforehand, then." Her kimono was holding up well, and she had the outfit she used as an Ultra Guardian, but Yotsuyu could use some more everyday things--as well as a good coat for colder weather.

"Thank you for warning me. I shall pick up what I need at my earliest convenience," Yotsuyu said, nodding.

"I do not suppose there are any other ways I may be able to help? Save going somewhere to avail myself of food, and sending something to you?" Because that, at least, was not beyond her powers...

"Yes." Lusamine draped herself on Yotsuyu. "Take me out of this office -- I NEED to go shopping! I'm so stressed, I need a girls day out!"

"She really does. Go on, I've got this covered."

Lusamine whimpered.

Of all the things Yotsuyu had expected, having her superior drape herself physically over her was not what she had expected--and it took an act of will to not swat Lusamine off of her--it would do no good, and it certainly might do some harm.

"Very well. We shall go--although I have little experience with shopping so seriously! But let us be off, then! But the first thing on the agenda is lunch!"

Not that Yotsuyu was averse to indulging her sweet tooth as well, but it was likely the president of the Aether Corporation needed more than tea and almond cookies to sustain her.

"Yes, lunch, good." said Lusamine, finally getting back to her feet. "We should do lunch. Something filling to give us energy."

"There's a delicious cafe on main street," said Wicke. "Try starting there."

"That sounds more than sufficient to me," Yotsuyu said with a nod. She decided that she would lead the way, and beckoned to Lusamine to follow. She was certain that there would be a number of gawkers laying their eyes upon Lusamine, but there was not that much she'd be able to do about it.

Well, perhaps deflect a bit, because she can be forboding when she chooses, but they're supposed to be friendly, so...

With any luck, some gawking is all they needed to deal with.

The company copter would take them to the landing pad where Lusamine would stretch loudly, cracking her back. "Ugh, I have been sitting in that chair way too long." She groaned, rubbing her eyes.

"It certainly sounds like it--I heard that from over here," Yotsuyu said, giving Lusamine a concerned look. "Perhaps a massage is in order as well--at least for you," the witch concluded. Yotsuyu herself felt fine enough, even as she let Gosetsu and Ajisai precede them like a petite honor guard.

"But food first. Let's find that cafe Wicke was speaking of, shall we?"

"I could go for a massage..." said Lusamine. "I haven't had one in such a long time..."

"Of course. I think she linked me it on my phone... ah here we go. This way."

"Well, then, you had best get one. It would help your back, I think, and relieve some of your stress in the bargain." Yotsuyu was not unfamiliar with massages--they'd been something the courtesans could avail themselves of, and they'd also been taught some of the techniques, as well. Not that Yotsuyu was in any hurry to relive those days--let Lusamine's name bring the best to her!

"Of course, lead on!" Likely she wasn't as peckish as the president was, but Yotsuyu could at least have a bite or two in solidarity.

The streets wound across the buildings until they came up against a nice Kanto store, the smell of noodles assailing the pair. "Come on in!" Exclaimed the owner as Lusamine pushed the door open. "Okonoyami and Ramen. Our specialties. What will you two ladies be having?" asked the owner, a heavyset Alolan man.

"Beef, a bowl and a Okonomiyaki," said Lusamine, knowing the "beef" was obviously the stuff that was grown naturally.

"Karaage ramen, if you would, please," Yotsuyu replied--if beef was safe to eat, then she hoped that the fried chicken would be safe as well.

She took a seat as the man gestured them to a nearby table. "No appetizers?" Though it seemed Lusamine had a good appetite, so she couldn't argue with that, at least.

"We've got some edamame beans if you're interested in those," replied the owner. "And some sake imported from Kanto."

"I'm up for that." said Lusamine. "Yotsuyu?"

"It sounds simply delightful to me, whyever not?" Yotsuyu said, nodding. She wasn't likely to drink a great amount of the sake, but it would make a nice accompaniment to the edamame.

"And dessert! We cannot forget dessert!" Of course her sweet tooth would rear its embarrassing head...

"We have flan," said the owner. "Flan and puddings."

"That sounds like a good idea. Flan would be an nice change from the usual." said Lusamine.

"I find it perfectly acceptable as well. I've not had flan in...quite a long time." And the kami knew it would satisfy her sweet tooth, as well!

"Then we'll get a flan a piece." said Lusamine. "It'll be more than acceptable."

"Right-o, two flans coming up for dessert as well!" Exclaimed the owner, the food being prepared rapidly.
