[That or he died maybe ten minutes ago. Either way.]

..Right.

[He's not going to complain. His Pokemon seems to have picked up on the seriousness of the conversation and has dropped the hat, which Ocelot picks up and replaces on his head very carefully.

Raikov's the last person he wants to talk to right now but it's better than not having any idea at all about what's going on.]

[majorcrotchgrab]

[BORING DETAILS ABOUT HOW THIS WORLD WORKS AND how people from the same world can come from different times and stuff. wibbly wobbly timey wimey.]

So... that's the basic. I still haven't figured out the pokemon aspect of this place.

[shest]

[Really, he'd call all of this bullshit but Raikov was the lover of the man who had to wear a rubber body suit to keep from exploding himself who also had scars that looked like he'd attempted to give a jellyfish head at one point. And one of his mother's soldiers spat bees from his mouth and another was well over a century old.

Timeline shenanigans? Okay. Fine. He can deal with that perfectly fine.]

Interesting world where there aren't any guns but that thing over there can spit fire.

[majorcrotchgrab]

Tell me about it. I was a tad disappointed to find my M37 missing.

[Raikov would punch Ocelot if he heard him describe Volgin like that.]

So is that your starter? I would've expected you to pick a cat.

[shest]

Oh, it's not my starter. I've got a second one already. I just wanted to test it out since it's new.

[And that's a baldfaced lie, but it's not like lying is anything new to him so there's no hint of it in his tone or face.]

[And his starter isn't a cat either thank you very much.]

[majorcrotchgrab]

[considering Raikov's lived through Ocelot's betrayal, he knows better than to fully trust him]

Uhuh... And what's your starter then?

[shest]

[He lets out a hiss.]

It's annoying. I'm not going to show you.

[majorcrotchgrab]

[And thus the two de-evolved into little children]

If it's annoying, give it to someone who'll actually take care of it.

Like me.

[shest]

[Naturally.]

Hell, no.

It'll only listen to me anyway.

[majorcrotchgrab]

It might listen to a nicer trainer.

[shest]

It listens to me just fine!

I wanted to train this one. That's all.

[majorcrotchgrab]

Tsk, tsk. Playing favorites... Make sure the other doesn't get neglected!

[shest]

It's not going to get jealous.

[And for once he's not actually bluffing about this. At least he doesn't think so. It's not like he has anything to do anyway. And besides, the fire lizard thing is a lower level.]

[majorcrotchgrab]

Let's hope not.

[Because jesus, Katya gets super jealous if Raikov even looks at another person or pokemon]

[shest]

[Speaking of...]

Hold on, is yours the jealous type?

[majorcrotchgrab]

She might be. Why?

[shest]

[Trying not to laugh.

Did you literally get Volgin in Pokemon form, Raikov?]

Neither of mine are. This one likes to play games and the other is way too serious.

[majorcrotchgrab]

[A not as angry female version of him.]

Oh, so it's the serious one you don't want to show me. I'm not surprised. You always did challenge the Colonel and my authority...

[you guys were the same rank ivan]
