(@agent-morpeko) Panina @ Gamma.

"Oh, heya, partner! I think I can call ya that cuz that Morpeko gal told me aboutcha." she smiles with a cool hand gesture. "Sadly I couldn't able to visit this place as it too dangerous as you say...

Anyways, I've heard that ya have an unusual tall Leafeon friend...and a bit spooky, hehe. Enlighten with the info about them? An' how did y'all meet?"

”Oh you must be one of Ali’s crewmates then,” Gamma fiddled with the datapad in her paws, making sure the connection didn’t break up while inside the compound. “I won’t blame anyone for not swinging by, specially if they don’t got access to a reconstructor. Gotta be careful when you only got one life and all!”

At the mention of her friend Gamma’s smile brightened and she held out the datapad so the camera could show behind her.

“This is actually the same place we met in! Couple years ago when I was with a different crew we were exploring this place for scrap and I heard some of the worst screeching possible! Sounded like a hell of a fight going on so of course I had to go and watch!”

“Anyways by the time I got to the spot it was clear the fight was over and whoever the winner was had dragged themself off to hide. I was still curious about what could do that kinda damage to a thumper so I followed the blood trail. Imagine my surprise to find a leafeon hunched in a corner snarling and hissing.”

“It was pretty clear the poor guy was the one in the fight and hurt so I did my best to calm him down. Sat there and talked, shared some rations until he trusted me enough to get closer and patch him up. By that time it was almost time for the ship to set off, pretty sure everyone else was dead already since it hadn’t left earlier. Anyways I wasn’t about to just ditch someone on one of these moons and it was clear he had been here for a long time. So I grabbed his paw and convinced him to follow me back on the ship!”

“And with some sweet talking I got him a gig with the company so he could get a proper place to sleep and regular rations, plus we got to stick together! Course most teams are spooked by the big guy so once my old crewmates had come back they weren’t exited to see my new buddy hanging with me so we got bounced around a few teams until Data agreed to take us on.”

“Oh but don’t let the looks spook you! He’s a big ol softie once you get to know him! Best snuggle buddy ever. Just avoid eye contact, it spooks him and he can get a bit defensive when on edge.”

”Attention employees!” Data’s voice rang through the small metal shuttle, easily drawing the eyes of her coworkers. She stood in front of the monitor with her arms crossed behind her back and her head held with its usual stern expression.

“Is it work time already?” Gamma groaned from where she was taking a nap in a tangled heap with Briar. The strange leafeon gave a low grumble, likely vocalizing its own displeasure at the interruption.

Nova at least didn’t make any comments, simply setting her book down to look at her leader. At least one of these employees had some basic decorum.

“Yes,” Data spoke simply, choosing to ignore the nucleons whining. “And as you have heard during this weeks work period we have been chosen to assist with the company’s intern initiative. Meaning that we will have several untrained Pokemon joining us for our expeditions. You are expected to act professionally and treat them as you would any other coworker while showing them the glory of our work.”

“Yeah yeah,” Gamma interrupted, waving a paw in the air, “escort the newbies around and try to keep them from dropping like cutieflies. We got it!”

Data narrowed her eyes at the interruption but let it pass without comment, “yes. As you appear knowledgeable prepare for landing. We will be visiting Vow.” With that she turned on her heel to face the controls, readying the ship for landing while the two layabouts scrambled to pull on their suits and activate their air helms.

~~~

The crew has landed on Vow. Interns may now exit their ship and join the Eon crew for work.

Kura @ whoever ya want ig lol

“Huh. First I’ve seen a world like this. I’m new to this place, so I have to ask. What is it ya do around here?”

“I heard something about a “company.” Why join?”

“I can answer this one,” Gamma nudged Nova out of the way. She glanced over her shoulder to confirm that Data was distracted before focusing back on the screen. “Cause unless you want to hear a bunch of propaganda I wouldn’t ask that one back there about the company,” she snickered as she jabbed a thumb over her shoulder to point at the umbreon.

“Anyways it’s the same shtick every week yknow? Work week is three days. Each day we head off to one of the abandoned moons so we can go search for scrap and junk in the old facilities. They follow mystery dungeon logic so they always end up restocked with more junk everyday. Don’t ask me how that works cause I have no idea same with the weird ass layout logic.”

“They’re also full of monsters and creatures so it ain’t a walk in the park. Not other Pokemon either! Like straight up alien crap!”

“So we go grab the junk the company thinks is valuable, try not to die while doing it, and drag it back to the ship. After the three days of doin that we fly back to the company building and sell it to them. We get money and they get a buncha crap. No clue what they want with it but hey it’s good money. As long as you fill the quota.”

“After that we get the rest of the week to do whatever we want! But since we’d have to pay out of pocket for ship fuel if we wanted to travel anywhere we usually just hang out in orbit until it’s work time again.”

“Now why someone would want to join in this death trap? Plenty of reasons! Newby here took the job to cover a scholarship offered by our bosses. Pretty sure know it all back there was like raised by the company or some shit. Me? I needed the cash and the excitement of the job the sounded fun to me! Hell my families been working here for a while, it’s how I knew about it and knew it would be a hoot! My best leafy pal is here cause I dragged him with and now he gets a good home and proper food.”

@chaosoffriendship M offers a box filled cookies that taste like their happiest memory and if they don't have any the box has you favorite flavor of doughnuts

“Aw heck yeah!” Gamma quickly shoves the cookie into her mouth, sending crumbs flying as she hums in delight.

She remembers the day she evolved. The rush of adrenaline as she battled off a monster while her crewmates scattered behind her. She could feel the humming energy from the apparatus at her feet as she danced around the beast, her small frame aiding her swift movements and allowing her access to its weak spot. As the creature fell the room was bathed in light as Gamma’s form changed. A once loose suit was now uncomfortably tight and the bitter tang in the air had turned sweet and energizing.

“Oh, thank you,” Nova gave a shy smile, taking a small bite of the cookie.

They remember the day they were accepted into college. Their family had always struggled with finances and education was not prioritized by the colony they lived in. But their parents always did what they could to support them. Money was saved and books scavenged. Time was put into researching schools, the requirements, costs, scholarships. Nova had long since accepted that it would be unlikely for them to get into a school. But the day a letter came to their door changed that. They had been accepted for a scholarship to the Haldren college of electronics and technology. It was not their first choice, nor would it be anyone’s. But it was a chance.

Briar sniffed the cookie before giving it a lick. The leaves on his back rustled as he let out a pleased churr and swiftly scarfed the treat down.

He could remember it. He was in the dark halls. They were his dark halls. His metal walkways and rusted things. But something had come into his dark. Trespassed. So he drove it away. But it had fangs and claws that hurt and spilled. So after it was gone he hid in his dark. Cleaned his spilling and waited. Something else came. It brought light into his dark. Soft light. Light that didn’t hurt. It found him. It saw his leaks and pains. It saw his claws and fangs as he hissed. It looked. But didn’t look long. It made noises but didn’t leave. It made itself smaller and offered a gift. Strange foods he had never tasted before. He allowed it closer for more of the strange flavor. It offered more of its gifts. It helped his leaks and offered comfort with soft touches and strange noises.

Data gave the cookie a simple inspection before taking a bite.

Her eyes widened at the flavor as a simple memory crossed her mind. Her first job as captain of a crew. She had been training for so long, both in the field and out. But now she had finally been promoted and gifted the title she was made to bear. She knew exactly what to do and how to command her crew. There were no casualties and scrap collection had far exceeded the quota given to them. She had succeeded. And the Company was proud of her.

[ @ask-the-sneasel-twins ) Shiro @ Gamma: “someone told you about this place?” The Sneasel tilts his head slightly, looking at the Nucleon before him. “Have you been to a place like this before?”

“Oh yeah I got plenty of pals and buddies out there! Don’t tell Data I figured out how to get social media on the console ha!”

“Been to similar places I guess. Couple a moons have some wicked blizzards and sick mansions to scrap hunt in. Course those moons come with a high risk of kicking the bucket and I can’t say I’ve seen any monsters roamin here so eh, close enough. Scrap, snow, and things wandering round.”

Chara (Not_Found) @ Gamma

„WOAH, Ive never seen an Eeveelution like you before! Also your sweater looks amazing, where did you get it?“

“Heh yeah we nucleons ain’t the most common. Just makes us that much cooler! Thanks btw! Not often I get chances to wear stuff other than my work suit around other peeps and that thing ain’t exactly fanishionable. Comished a pal of mine to make this for me actually! They like to knit in their spare time and who am I if not a supporter of the cozy arts!”
