[So she marches right on over to Red's dorm. Then marches right on back home because WOW THAT IS VERY NERVE-WRACKING. Then she comes back again (with Tavi for moral support) and knocks on that door like it ain't no thang.
[Oh god she's here she came over to sock him in the face and turn him over to the authorities for things he didn't do but he did do them but it wasn't him and
... Well maybe they could just put him in a crazy house that would be a-ok with him.]
LYRA DIDN'T REMEMBER. Relief washed over him but it didn't last long.]
Uh...
[He stared. What was he supposed to say? "Oh, everybody went crazy and I decided I was going to turn into Giovanni's killer cousin or something and you made me quit it. Oh by the way you decided you were his daughter."
"Oh, I let Green's own Ivysaur poison him and then he died also I kicked puppies for a living."]
[Hear that? It's the sound of Lyra's jaw hitting the floor.]
We had a battle??
NO. WAY. The most important moment in my entire life and I don't even remember it?! Oh man, did I win?? No, of course I didn't, you're the Team Rocket Kid. But I put up a really good fight, right?
[There actually gets to be a next time. SHE'S GONNA HAVE A ROUND SHE REMEMBERS. Oh my goodness her grin is so big her face might explode at any moment.]
I'm gonna have all those badges quicker than you think, Team Rocket Kid. Make sure you guys don't slack off, okay? I wanna see what the team that saved Kanto can really do!
BUT WAIT! What's this? It appears to be some form of note.]
