[The face appearing on the network now may or may not be a new face to some people, but this whole situation sure is new to Clive. Anyone who's paying extra close attention may also notice that the scenery in the background is nowhere in New Bark Town or Mahogany; it's none other than the first floor of the Radio Tower in Goldenrod.]Good evening,

[Marceline's jogging to catch up with him on his way out of the tower. She's rubbing her arms, but trying not to chatter her teeth. Cold never used to be a problem.]

Hey, wait up!

[vengefulyears]

[He stops when he hears a voice calling out to him, turning around to see a girl running towards him. Clive puts on his best gentlemanly smile and tips his hat at her, doing his best to ignore the cold for now.]

May I help you?

action;

[stolemyfries]

[She grins at the gentlemanly gesture, trying not to laugh.]

Just figure teammates should stick together, you know. Hang out.

[Guess who's also been spending time in the Radio Tower these past few days.]

action;

[vengefulyears]

[Oh ho, a fellow Team Rocket member. Clive was wondering when he would meet one.]

Makes sense. So you've woken up here, too?

action;

[stolemyfries]

[She shrugs.] Yeah, pretty much. Been spending my days so far, getting rules and regulations drilled into me. Boring

[Also being cold. Damn this cold weather sucks when you can't just write it off.]

action;

[vengefulyears]

It is rather tedious, isn't it? I hope they'll teach us more interesting things soon.

[Clive feels her pain.]

action;

[stolemyfries]

Yeah! I'm Marceline, by the way.

action;

[vengefulyears]

And I'm Luke. It's a pleasure to meet you.

action;

[stolemyfries]

Likewise. So, Luke, where ya headed. Hopefully somewhere out of this flipping cold?

action;

[vengefulyears]

Yes, I was just heading to the department store to take a look at their winter jackets. It'll probably be a miracle if they have one that I can actually afford, but I figured I'd look nonetheless... You're free to join me if you'd like.

action;

[stolemyfries]

Yeah, shopping sounds cool. I'll need to get myself some new digs for this place. Since we're not supposed to wear those uniforms in public unless on "official duty". And well, this isn't much.

action;

[vengefulyears]

...New digs?

[Clive doesn't understand all these new slang terms...]

action;

[stolemyfries]

Yeah, you know, like new clothes. Something way warmer than this.

[He'll learn plenty hanging around Marceline.]
