[omg dist has a crush DEETS]
better safe than sorry
[
[...yeah okay when you actually see someone you kind of like on the news for stealing the fossil revival machine out of the pokemon center
yeah]
Was that really necessary?
yeah]
Was that really necessary?
[Surprisingly enough, Dist hasn't been paying attention to the network since last night due to being stuck in the middle of nowhere and feverishly working on this damn machine in attempt to get it in working order.
So when he gets this message, he knows it can only mean one thing. God damnit they got found out.]
Can we please not talk about this right now?
[It's already embarrassing enough that the mission didn't go as planned at all, but now people are aware of it. And in this case, people he likes too.]

[ Apparently Kayneth beat her to it but. ]
Dist! Did you steal that stuff from the museum, too?
Also, are you okay? I hope you realize your face was in a news broadcast.
[ ...Two conflicting sentences but whatever. ]

[noooOOOOO Aradia, you weren't supposed to find out this waaay.
Also yeah those are definitely conflicting sentences.
There's a bit of a guilty tone to his voice when he responds, but he also sounds pretty pissed as well. Maybe at himself, maybe at his team, maybe at everything...who knows.]
I just found out. Yes, I am fine, and no, I did not steal from the museum.
[Short and to the point, because he doesn't even have the will to explain himself right this second.]

I wouldn't be talking about it if you hadn't stolen the device that's apparently intended to be used to revive fossils in the city I'm currently staying in! Now I have to wait until after I defeat this awful gym leader and go to Ecruteak to be able to use them, so I'm hoping you had a-
[DON'T SWEAR DON'T SWEAR DON'T SWEAR]
-decent reason for this!
[DON'T SWEAR DON'T SWEAR DON'T SWEAR]
-decent reason for this!
[Oh, is that how it's going to be? Very well then.]
Yes, because I selected Goldenrod specifically to ruin your plans, Kayneth. [Oops he forgot the title. Or was that on purpose?] If I had my way, I wouldn't have chosen Goldenrod in the first place! The location was what ruined us in the first place!
As for my reason? Well, that should be obvious. To discover the process behind the machine, of course! A process this valuable shouldn't be shrouded in mystery like everything else in this godforsaken world.
[Well, TR probably just wants it for reviving all those stolen fossils, but he's thinking bigger.]

Well, I certainly can't blame you for wanting to examine the machine more closely, and I'm sure there would be a great deal of restrictions in place in terms of trying to examine it in the actual center... so while I can't say I entirely approve, I'm not going to moralize at you for stealing one in the first place, given that the natives have been horrendously obstructive to any sort of meaningful research.
...but really, Goldenrod is quite possibly the most inconvenient place you could have stolen from for practically everyone here, not just me! Couldn't you have gone to some backwater hole like... oh, I don't know, Cherrygrove or somewhere like that and stolen their machine?

[ Hm. Okay, since he didn't directly obstruct her in visiting the museum, her own questionable alien moral code can allow this to pass, apparently.
...she needs to work on her moral code sometime, even though she's one of the more "good"ish trolls. ]
Well, that's something, at least. Why did you steal a machine available to public use, though?

[... Well, Aradia's not as mad as he thought she would be. Apparently she was more enraged by the museum bit.]
To examine it thoroughly, which would have never been possible otherwise. The natives have a way of keeping important scientific information from us, and it is extremely infuriating.
[It's not the complete truth, since in reality it was stolen because Team Rocket wants it, but that's his own reasoning for wanting it.]

At least you understand that much. We both know that we would have never gotten any real access to those machines other than seeing the employees use it from far away.
As I said, Goldenrod was not my first choice. It would have certainly been a great deal easier to steal from Cherrygrove or Azalea. But I want to be completely honest with you, Kayneth. Accommodating others who could possibly inconvenienced by my theft was not anywhere close to the top of my list of priorities.

[ If he had been involved in the museum-closing theft her annoyance might have taken hold for longer.
Luckily for Dist, he wasn't. ]
...I suppose they don't really share information, although my first instinct would have been to ask about it.
[ Here. She might very well have just nabbed it herself, were she in her home universe and playing by troll rules. ]
If you do learn anything from it, are you going to keep that information to yourself and Team Rocket?
...Also, are you just going to go into hiding forever now, or?

Even though there's no reason for them to keep us from it whatsoever... ugh, I can't believe how pointlessly difficult they make things for us.
[...which is part of why he isn't getting on a high horse about this.]
What was preventing you from picking a more auspicious location, then? Inconveniences aside, it meant there were far more people around who would inconvenience you.

You must take my word on this Aradia: they would reveal nothing. I've asked about various items in this world, such as PokeBalls, the PC system, et cetera. It is always the same with this world and its technology. No one will tell us anything, because they simply don't want us to know.
[He takes a deep breath to calm himself down. He doesn't want to get angry with Aradia.]
That I have yet to decide, but no, I won't go into hiding forever. That would make life extremely annoying. I'm simply going to wait for this to blow over before showing myself on the network again.

Perhaps you should find more agreeable cohorts, then.
...Well, it's true that I've never really gotten answers to many of my questions.
[ Still, she's wary of actually going against the order of things here, with her ~pacifistic~ view, though that's also meshed with her creepy troll morality system. ]
That said, will you let me know what, if anything, you discover?
And I do hope it blows over. Though I can't say getting caught would be horrible, here - I've yet to see anything more than community service doled out in response to crimes. Just be careful of the other people here not from this world.

Oh? Are you curious about fossil revival as well, Aradia? [He wasn't expecting that.] If you wish to know, then yes, I will relay what I find with you. But you must not tell anyone that it was I who gave the information to you. That is my only request.
I am not afraid of the native police force. It is the anti-Rocket organization that I am wary of. They are far more competent at what they do, so revealing myself to them would be a gamble that I am not willing to take at the moment.

Very interested! Fossils are - well, I suppose you could call them a passion of mine. The information would be of interest to - oh, Kayneth and Ash, I expect. Maybe John. But I've never had any problem keeping my mouth shut about where I learn something from.
[ to the utter frustration of her companions, when she chooses to be close-mouthed. ]
I've only heard about that organization off and on. I can't say I've ever seen them in action - but do take care around them.

I'll have to keep that in mind. And ah, Kayneth is also an acquaintance of mine, so I will likely provide him with some information myself. While I am not familiar with the others you named, if you believe them to be trustworthy then I suppose I can allow you to tell them.
[He'd really like to keep the info limited as an advantage, but...well, there can't be any harm in telling a few people.]
Do not fret Aradia, I will take the utmost care. If something were to happen, I have plenty of powerful Pokemon to protect me.

Oh, he is?? He's one of my best friends here! I didn't know you were acquainted, though. But yes, I believe Ash is trustworthy - and John is John Egbert. He's exceptionally trustworthy. I think it would be hard to find someone more trustworthy!
[ let her tell you abouthomestuck john egbert ]
Okay, good! If you run into any trouble - I'll assist so far as it isn't breaking the human laws here, since I don't want to rock the legal boat so far.
