I have some that battle.

[He can concede that much, but if Scar has no choice but to battle, he generally lets his Pokemon do what they will. Telling them what to do feels odd. The whole thing feels odd.]

I have also had luck washing dishes when I need money.

[He's actually hireable here. It's never lasted, but he has successfully been An Employee a few times.]

[bugbeverage]

i got mimikyu and this bird what do you got?

[ He's not ignoring the job advice he's just not commenting on it. ]

[officerdown]

[Beetlejuice receives a surprisingly well-shot photo of a Zangoose that is definitely doing a pose while pretending to make it look natural.]

I have yet to retrieve the others from Kanto. She fights, though.

[bugbeverage]

aw she looks just like you!!!

[officerdown]

In what regard?

[No, BJ is definitely right, there's Something.]

[bugbeverage]

you have the same eyebrows!!!

[officerdown]

[Let it be known that Scar makes the exact same frown at his 'gear that his Zangoose made at the camera.]

We do not.

[bugbeverage]

[ For a little while, it seems Scar has won this little argument. There's no reply. But then, a single image comes through. ]

[It's the same photo of the Zangoose that Scar sent but now Scar's face from the day they went to the second hand store has been overlayed on top of it with a primitive photo editing program. ]

[officerdown]

[UH?]

[bugbeverage]

smearglestudio

[ Attached is a selfie, only his skin has been smoothed to SHIT and his eyes are huge and full of sparkles and his lips are so, so wet.]

[officerdown]

I do not wish to look like a sex doll.

[bugbeverage]

but i can think of one little thing i would change


[ There is another long pause before Scar is treated to another photo of himself--it's the same photo as before, the one from the second hand store. However this time BJ has used the smudge tool to upturn the corners of Scar's mouth so that they are both smiling.]

[officerdown]

[How do these people keep finding him?]
