Sometimes Nejiki just doesn't have eyebrows.
“how did you possibly manage to incur this volume and scope of damage to the interior when less than three days have elapsed since the last repair”

[10:08:36 PM] pom: ... so I just kind of imagined two graves next to each other
[10:08:41 PM] pom: nejiki visits them
[10:08:46 PM] pom: and he knows which ones to visit
[10:08:57 PM] pom: because carved into each gravestone
[10:08:59 PM] pom: "GAY 1"
[10:09:01 PM] pom: "GAY 2"
[10:09:04 PM] alice: that's enough.
Often, I feel silly, making serious headcanons about Pokemon characters that encompass modern issues, but I suppose that to excel in character development for complex stories it is good to consider various dynamics.
ha ha no I still feel silly
So, is the hypothetical situation post a Thing now? Nejiki without PT... would not exist! Ha ha! I'm so meta even this acronym! Obviously I would never have made him or even considered him without that blasted community! Ehh!?! Blasted!? Maybe that's too harsh...
Perhaps, were I to ask him, "What would you do if you had never met Cheren? And what if Hikari was normal instead of a hormonal teenage girl? And what about Ruby?" he would simply say, "Impossible, unless you're asking me to transverse universes."
(And at that point one might be able to tell he's gone and made a mental note about building himself some kind of TARDIS)
"I would do what I always do minus three distractions."
"...Alright, but what if you met them, but then lost them?"
"Bzweeep! The population of the world is 6,973,738,433. It has an estimated annual growth of 1.1%"
And then he would spin around on his spinning chair and go back to work. The memories of them are already committed to his data banks. It was fun while it lasted. Now there's more work to be done. Though... heh... I think he also thinks he would be called gay and insulted less without them.
He's so inclined to think he is better off without other people and never seems to dwell on the past. He'll reach out to them whenever he wants, and he doesn't make unbreakable bonds. In the same way that others can reprogram him, he can remove that programming and reprogram himself to his own specifications. For someone so adaptable and resilient, he sure stays in one place a lot. I guess it's because he finds comfort and challenge in the cerebral and metaphysical unknown more than the physical unknown.
Nejiki is just Nejiki you know, and I think that he will always just be Nejiki.
Seeing all these future RP characters makes me think, "What would future Nejiki be like?" and all I can really think to answer that is "Nejiki."
I bet he'll even look the same. No older or younger. Still just as short. Eventually, maybe he'll disappear or shut down or something without warning like how an old computer goes obsolete and breaks and is gotten rid of and eventually forgotten except by those few sentimental folks, the types who can get emotionally attached to inanimate objects.
You expect to find him in his basement working on some machine or another, but then one day he's gone.
Maybe, Nejiki is reliable in his consistency. Nothing is life-changing and personality-altering, and all potentially life-changing events are taken in stride.

PT: Cheren's Birthday 2012
The tiny bot unhinges itself from the now 18-year-old’s skin and scuttles up his skin until it gets to his ear, pinching him with tiny metal phalanges.
Cheren: clock just strikes 12:00 am on a Saturday. Then again, striking midnight wouldn't be contextually correct, as the clock Cheren is looking at is an electric one, its bright blue digits glowing with a slight hum. It isn't just any 12:00 am on a Saturday, he knew, but he had no expectations for the occasion. His gaze returns to his textbook, cast in the yellow light of the lamp.
Just as he reaches the middle of the paragraph he is on, though, he feels a strange sensation crawl into his ear, making him jerk. "What the--" he reaches up, tries to swat--"Ow!" He winces—
Nejiki: The bot whines a bit like an old processor, despite obviously being new technology, but then an unmistakable monotone voice eminates from its speaker.
“Hello. It is exactly 12:00 AM and 30 seconds on Saturday, September 15th. This is the day of your 18th birthday. I hope you know that I am always at least a year ahead of you. End transmission.”
With a tiny shock, the bot decommissions itself and falls to the floor.
Not even a “Happy Birthday,” huh?
Cheren: He winces again at the volume, though it's not as loud as he was expecting from the first word. He freezes, all except for a grin on his face as he listens to the message. The grin is wiped away at the sudden buzzing shock, causing him to swat at his ear again in pain. "Dammit, sir--!"
He doesn't realize he's standing up until he looks back down at the floor, able to make out the shape of the robot. He crouches down, squinting at where he thought it landed and picks it up.
"Pfft. Thanks for the reminder."
He sits back down and places it next to the alarm clock. It didn't look salvagable, but he was rather curious. This was the second one now?
Might as well try to have a look at what survived some time.
"Nejiki sure has too much time... heh."
FP: Cheren's Birthday 2012
When you go to the mailbox of the PDA, there's a message there that says, "Why were you in the /male/ bathroom?"
Neziki: (Suddenly a cold metallic object is pressed to the back of his head...)
BZWEEEP!

The Factory
This is where Neziki lives, so I thought I might as well describe what I think the place is like.
TEAM
Neziki’s Pokemon are all named after the greek letters of the alphabet because scientists and mathematicians do that all the time so it must be a thing that is smart!!! Still, to appear professional he never calls them these names in public. I guess the names are almost more of a categorization system; it’s pretty easy to write a single letter than a full Pokemon’s name. Plus, if in an urgent situation he can’t find one of them, they have a specific title he can call. Neziki always has practical reasons for everything because it makes him seem adult! And important! There’s no need for nicknames to be flamboyant.
I also imagine he carves the Greek letter of their names into their Pokeballs.
α (Alpha) - Electivire ♂
Ability: Motor Drive
Nature: Calm
Held Item: Expert Belt
Moves: Thunderbolt, Hidden Power (Ice), Flamethrower, Cross Chop (Earthquake, Magnet Rise)
This was Neziki’s first Pokemon, which is why he named it the first letter of the Gteek alphabet. Met him as an Elekid and raised him all by himself! He’s a pretty mild Pokemon, all silent and stoic and not annoying to Neziki, but the fact that he looks like a real tough bruiser probably got the kid out of a lot of trouble with people who like to pick on scrawny nerds. He’s pretty useful as a power source too! Endless electricity for the tech geek. Jubilations.
Σ (Sigma) - Skarmory ♂
Ability: Sturdy
Nature: Impish
Held Item: Leftovers
Moves: Brave Bird, Whirlwind, Spikes, Roost (Swagger, Metal Sound)
(Like half of these moves are supporting moves can I just say he also knows generic Skarmory things like Steel Wing and Slash I mean come on)
I bet Neziki found him when he was looking through a big heap of scrap metal for something to build with. It was probably some dramatic scene where he lifted a piece of scrap up and suddenly there’s this BIRD and this horrible screeching noise and his Elekid is kind of severely low leveled in comparison but a) the Skarmory has been trapped under scrap metal and is probably somewhat weakened because of it already and b) they use some whacked out strategy that has something to do with taking advantage of all the scrap metal lying around and then Neziki catches it because sure ok why not.
But he has to train it to stop screeching because the high frequencies make his machines flip out.
γ (Gamma) - Yanmega ♂
Ability: Tinted Lens
Nature: Modest
Held Item: Life Orb
Moves: Bug Buzz, Air Slash, Giga Drain, Endure (Protect, Toxic… Double Team!?)
There’s a strategy there where if Yanmega used Toxic on an opponent then Endure, then Protect, then a Double Team spam, he’d be able to prolong the battle enough that the other Pokemon faints from the poisoning. Three extra moves just seems a little… excessive to me, but whatever. I almost wanted him to know Hyper Beam and Swagger as well, but then I held my right hand with my left hand and said, “Pom, that’s enough.”
Honestly, I only want Neziki to have one of these because it looks like a robot bug. So yeah. I think he likes the way this Pokemon looks and stuff. Cool.
Gamma strikes me as a really intense type. Serious battler.
He was going to have a Tyranitar too, but then I was like “wow why it’s 5 AM screw it." Probably would have been named Omega though. We’ll see if I still want him to have it.
