cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | 64 | Video | Backdated to November 27th!

[The video today is somewhat different from Cobra’s normal videos. For one, it’s outside. Two, he hasn’t really gone to any lengths to hide his location. Lavender Town’s music can clearly be heard in the background. Three, he has the camera pointed to the sky.]

Look!

[He’ll just leave it on as the sun sets and the moon rises, displaying…the same moon there always is. At this point, the video begins to resemble a usual Cobra broadcast since he’s not very happy about whatever it is he was trying to show.]

What? Imposssible! I distinctly remember-

[A bunch of scattered things, but he’s pretty sure the moon was involved somehow.]

Why is there nothing there? Thisss can't be!

[And Cobra shuts off the Gear there since whatever he wanted to show people isn’t there. Apparently he wasted several minutes of the viewer's time for nothing.]

{OOC: So since we’re allowed to remember things from this 4th Wall, Cobra Commander remembers flying towards the moon with the intent of doing something. What exactly that was and whether he succeeded or not is unfortunately something he doesn’t really recall. He’s going to assume he succeed though because he can’t see how he could fail at anything!}

How? Do we even know anything about them?

[And by we, he means Kimblee. Because Cobra typically doesn't go out of his way to learn anything about the locals.]

I don't know, do we?

[And by we, he means Cobra, given that Cobra has been here far longer than he has -

...ladies and gentlemen, criminal masterminds.]

If I knew something, then I wouldn't be asking if we had information!

[Cobra, you are so fortunate that Kimblee is so easily pushed around by his superior officers; he generally doesn't tolerate rudeness otherwise, but...]

Had I any information to volunteer, I can assure you that I would be doing so; however, I have nothing to report at this time.

[And Kimblee is fortunate that Cobra likes him too much to start yelling things like “Then what good are you?” right now. So he’s saved having to hear Cobra go on a tirade.]

Ssssso we know nothing. That needs to be changed as soon as possible.

[...such an exercise in patience, Cobra.]

Unfortunately, it seems as though they've been keeping themselves extremely well-hidden; I don't know of anyone who's managed to ascertain their identities, much less make contact with them. I've used most of my resources already; however, I won't allow failure of this sort to stand, and I'll do what I can to rectify it.

It ssssounds like we won't be able to learn anything until they show themselves! I hate thissss!

[There's not much he can do about it though.]

[With all due respect, sir, you are six.]

Not necessarily. It's possible the gym leaders know something, after all...

I'd be surprised if ssssome of them knew anything at all!

[So help him if Whitney knows all the Elite Four info...]

[Oh, don't even suggest such a thing, you'll jinx it - !]

Well, there's hardly any sense in getting worked up over it...

[Kimblee, in case you haven't noticed by now, Cobra gets worked up over everything.

He'll quiet down a little though, so he can think.]

If we rule out the idiots, which ones would you ssssuspect of possibly having that information?

[...he's...he's noticed, yes...

he's kind of hoping there will be improvement someday sob hope springs eternal okay]

I don't know enough about the Kanto leaders to say much on their behalf, but if I had to guess Johto-wise, I would assume Clair and Pryce would be the most likely. Clair due to her family apparently having some sort of status in this world, and Pryce simply due to age - he's logically had the most experience with this world, and as such he would likely remember things happening that the younger set wouldn't.

Sssso it sounds like we should start with those two as far as Johto's concerned. And since you reside in Mahogany...that would leave you in a perfect position to conduct surveillance on both of them, wouldn't it?

[Oh, boy! Work!

...orz]

Yes, Commander, it does.

I'll let you know if anything is discovered.

Excellent.

And sssince I'm stationed in Kanto, I'll ssee if the local Gyms have any information as well.

[In other words, he's going to spy on Surge again.]

Do let me know if you hear anything.

I will. And I expect you to do the sssame if you discover something.
