23rd roar [ text ]; backdated to the morning of the 24th

[ Guess who saw the feed first thing upon waking and nearly flipped his shit? Yep. He flips it open to make some calls. ]

The empty base, and now this. Whatever it is they've got planned, it'll be best to stay on our guard.


[Private voicemail to: Cooper, Cooper, Sora, Ventus, Xion, Rise, Kisa, Nanako, Cecil, Yuffie:]
You're not hurt, are you? [ It's probably a good thing they can't see how worried he is. Suddenly--ping! ]

Error: user ID 'Yuffie Kisaragi' not found_

[ That's an unpleasant surprise. He checks his pokemon box--and finds Zuzu, looking forlorn. ]

[ Public text message sent out about an hour later: ]
If you knew Yuffie Kisaragi, she's been sent home.

[ He's just going to spend the rest of the day being grumpy and frustrated and torn between flying out to Goldenrod and staying on course to Blackthorn. ]

[Assuming they became acquainted during the raid...]

They definitely are planning something. Now that I think about it, didn't the book we found in the bigger dorm rooms have stuff about trains? The one we found the password in.

[He's just going to be angry at himself for now figuring it out earlier now.] I should've realised. Finding that, and then the announcement...it's so obvious now.

[Video] private to Merlin --> private forever

[ He shakes his head. ]

Hindsight is 20/20. It's best not to get caught up in 'should have' and 'could have'. We did what we could with the information we had.

[dragonspeak]

I know, it's just...frustrating.

[Merlin lets his breath out harshly.] So...I guess they're back. Team Rocket. A long time ago, Ven and I were thinking about putting together a group to discuss them, try to keep track of their movements, but then they went quiet.

I think, maybe, it's a good time to start up that group now if they're going to be more active from now on.

[adamant]

That's a good idea. Yosuke was talking about keeping tabs on them, too. [ A thoughtful pause. ] I saw someone asking for details over the network not long ago. [ Referring to Dominic Sorel. ] We could hit him up for notes, if he has any to share.

[dragonspeak]

Yeah, that might help a bit. I have some notes that Asuka gave me a long time ago--and I remember what other trainers have told me since I got here.

[Now here's the tricky part.] Who else should we ask? We need all the help we can get, but what's the safest way of contacting people over the Gear? [He's run into the same problem over and over again with the filters.]
