Suddenly in the midst of a Summer Festival--

[ulternnpc]

 

There's a distinct sound of waves, and bustling of people nearby.

In the coastal city of Turnbloom the sun is bright and warm, and the scent of the sea wafts through with the cool gentle breeze that makes the glittering pinwheels spin, and the leaves on the palm tree dance.

Today the streets are extra decorated with these cute, colorful and floral shaped pinwheels. It seemed the people who were out in the streets were dressed in colorful summer attire--either casual, or the more traditional yukata. It seemed like with the booths were set out for both food and games for festival of some kind that was currently underway.

Just how did you get here, and why? A mystery, and it seemed the people in the streets didn't seem to notice anything out of the ordinary as they go about enjoying their time out on this bright sunny day.

I. Turnbloom City Streets
A pink-haired young woman clad in black and grey stumbles out of an alley and into a main thoroughfare of the city. This wasn't her house. This wasn't HQ. It wasn't just about anywhere she recognized. Had she been kidnapped? Had she gone on a rager? Had she had one of those weirdass out of body experience again?

"Bloody hell…"

Her accent is almost Galarian, but a little bit...off. Honestly, most everything about her is a little off. She looks your way with a vaguely annoyed expression. "Hey. Where are we right now?"


II. Turnbloom Market
So there's a Team Rocket member walking around Turnbloom City. Like, that's absolutely, 100% a classic Team Rocket grunt uniform. It's almost comical how brazen its wearer is, strolling around and examining the stalls. She's not even trying to hide how she's casing the place. No matter how you slice it, she looks ready to do some CRIME and she doesn't care who knows it. In fact, she looks like she's about to pocket some goods right this very moment! WHAT WILL YOU DO?!


III. Festival
The 20-something criminal is staring at a goldfish scooping game skeptically. The hell is this? The hell is any of this?? They straight up didn’t have shit like this back home. She looks even more out of place than usual here.

"So this is supposed to be fun?"

...Maybe you should show her how it's done!


IV. Wildcard
Hit me with whatever else! I'm game for LITERALLY A N Y T H I N G!! Mayday can be found skulking all around town, picking fights with children and generally getting up to no good. You're welcome to PM me if you'd like to plot something.

Also, please feel free to use brackets when replying if you prefer. I'll absolutely match you, no problemo!

This comically brazen outfit was getting a comically brazen stare. It was like one of those scenes where the sunglasses were slipping down Blue and her Charizard's noses as they watched this sight unfold, glancing at each other over their sweet shades while they sipped sodas out of straws. Just like that, just they didn't have the sweet shades [Yet]. They were sipping some tropical treats.

Was this just a weird... fan?? People were weird like that sometimes! But if she wasn't, and she really was acting suspicious as all hell for actually suspicious reasons...! Red might have been the one to bring Team Rocket toppling down the first time, but that didn't mean Blue was gonna let this go unchecked.

"Something catch your eye?"

[ateamrocket]

"Eh," she shrugs, dropping the trinket in her hand back into the pile as nonchalantly as she'd picked it up. "Seems like mostly garbage, but it might be worth something to someone, I guess." Wow Mayday the stall owner is right there?? Her disinterested expression doesn't waver.

Anyway, having posted that scathing verbal review, she finally glances over to Blue and Charizard.

"What's it to you, kid?"

[travelingbelle]

Wow what a winning personality. She wasn't that much younger than her, hey.

"It's just been such a long time since I've seen a novelty costume like that. A real attention grabber."

[ateamrocket]

The winningest.

"Uh." Mayday blinks and looks down at her attire. "Thanks, I guess? But it's not a costume. It is sort of old, though. Some shit came up and I never got around to picking up the new uniform after I got promoted." She waves her hand dismissively, as though this was a commonly tread topic for her.

[travelingbelle]

That was kind of curious, actually. A thoughtful look crossed Blue's face.

"...Not a great promotion then...?" She wondered softly, mostly to herself. What would a Rocket promotion even look like? You got three Zubats? Two whole Golbats? Fancy yellow trim??

"Sorry, guess it just seems odd since they've been dismantled for almost a decade."

[serperiority]

The very Galarian expression earned a confused look from Trip. Isn't that... a Kanto criminal organization's uniform? Why wasn't she in disguise? Whoever's behind this has a weird sense of humour... but at least he'll know who not to trust.

"Hey. Better not steal anything, ma'am. You probably won't know how to get it home anyway."

[ateamrocket]

Mayday snorts a laugh. She’s not sure what was funnier - this kid calling her ma’am or the way he acted like he had any sway over what she was going to do.

“Heh, I’d like to see you try and stop me.” Not that there’s a lot to take around here. Some fuckin’ seashells, I guess?

That second part gets her attention, though.

“What do you mean by ’wouldn’t know how to get it home’?”
