i regret nothing

[thebossway]

[It was business as usual, pocketing the ball of the pokemon he used for flying about unseen, he pushes open the door to Bill's cottage. He doesn't even knock or make his presence known, just standing in the doorway and adjusting his collar before opening his eyes to glance around the cluttered room

[Bill, however, had himself buried in one of his machines. And the sound of the door opening startled him, making him hit his head against the inside panel with a resounding TWANG]

Ack! What in tarnation--

[thebossway]

Pardon my abrupt entry.

[He doesn't look sorry at all though, calm and sure of what he's doing. He approaches, his hands in his pockets.]

I have a business proposition for you. Bill, was it?

[okjust1fancydo]

[He grumbles, scooting out of the machine and rubbing his head.]

Didn't bother ta knock, why'm I inclined to listen ta you?

[thebossway]

I assure you. It's in your best interests to listen to me.

[He moves a pretend pocket from over a bright red R on his chest. It should be fairly obvious who he is, if not vaguely.]

We of Team Rocket require the use of you Pokemon storage systems.

[okjust1fancydo]

...Ain't that Team Rocket ruckus some sorta criminal thing?

I ain't no glory hound and I ain't gonna call no cops, but I don't see no reason ta agree to risk getting my own hide tanned by association.

[thebossway]

No one needs to know - all we need is the ability to deposit our pokemon into the system at will with safety.

[okjust1fancydo]

What's in it fer me?

[thebossway]

Name your price, it shouldn't be an issue. [Standing in front of you in whatever machinery you've found yourself enveloped in.]

[okjust1fancydo]

Well I ain't much fer cash. I should be netting a good haul from the storage system alone. The technology can't be replicated at the quality because I'm the only one who understands how the transfer of bio cells to digital information.

[Blah blah techy jargon]

I ain't interested in fame, neither. Can't stand them fancy dos.

[thebossway]

I see, then I'm sure we can come to some other sort of agreement. [He leans down. Moving one hand to cup Bill's chin.]

[okjust1fancydo]

...Wait, the hell're ya doin?

[thebossway]

You don't want money, you don't want fame, you aren't interested in reporting me to the authorities.

So what else could I offer you? [Perhaps, leaning a bit too close for comfort.]

[okjust1fancydo]

--Hey, hey, wait a darn minute, I didn't say nothin' like that, ya sicko!

[thebossway]

Then please - oblige me with exactly what it is you would like in return for your services.

I can offer anything, even though you claim you have no interest in wealth, fame, or luxury.

[okjust1fancydo]

... Geez.

[It's a good question. What can he get from Giovanni that he won't get from anyone else?]

...Only thing I can think is havin' proof that my system works. I'm s'posed ta demonstrate it, but I don't wanna risk my abra if the design is flawed.

[...It's not. It works perfectly, and he's used Abra since the rattata stopped coming out horribly mutated or mutilated.]

I'm 'parrently supposed ta be sponsoring my own demonstration, but movin' the tech to that lame ballroom ain't gonna be easy. And I need help with a show of confidence in my tech.

[thebossway]

A pokemon can be provided to take it's place. [lol have as many garbage pokemon as you want]

Arrangements can be made to move your technology quickly and efficiently. It's of no problem to us.
