69 | Private Text For Rockets

[So instead of an audio tirade, there’s a short, simple text from Cobra Commander being sent out on the Rocket channel. After checking the PC this morning, he’s definitely not in the mood to talk to anyone right now.]

It seems that a number of Rockets are no longer with us. If any of you have recently received a Pokémon from one of them, please respond stating who it belonged to. I’m aware of at least four departures, and if there are more, it needs to be reported immediately.

[Now to try and not throw the PokéGear at something while he waits. Given that he’s already thrown an office chair, his helmet, and various papers around the room, there’s a good chance that the PokéGear’s next.]

I wouldn't be too concerned with that. They have a habit of going dark for long periods of time. It's most likely unrelated to the current problem.

[Of course, if he were running things he'd be contacting everyone about this and demanding to know what was going on.

Okay, so it'd basically be the same thing but he'd be in charge.]

Is that so? I would think that a sudden drop (and a rather large one at that) in our ranks would be a cause for concern.

Apparently they think differently.

It just doesn't make any sense to me. Can you recall the last time you heard from them? Have you actually met any of them in person?

[Okay, hang on Dist. He has to think about this.]

It's been months since I've spoken with them, and yes, I have personally met a few of our superiors.

[While this new information is rather eye-opening, Dist didn't find much harm in the lack of communication until now. He was given free range of the labs and was allowed to work to his heart's content, so there wasn't much to complain about.]

Months, you say? I'd say it's been nearly a year in my case, close to when I first arrived in this world. I didn't even speak with him directly.

What are they like?

[How to put this without it possibly coming back to haunt him later...]

Let me put it this way. They're exactly what you'd expect the people running this organization to be like.

[He can't help but chuckle at the response.]

I am very familiar with that sort.

Did they say anything useful or interesting? Honestly, I would be lying if I said that I'm not a little curious about what they think of us non-natives.

Nothing I can recall at the moment. From what I've seen, their opinions on us vary. Some of them seem to be more sociable than others.

[He's actually had a decent conversation with Petrel. He can't say the same for the other admins.]

Oh? So nothing too concrete. That's somewhat frustrating, but oh well.

I do hope they decide to show their faces again, especially during a time like right now. They've lost a good chunk of members, after all.
