[attr="class","nokitable"] ♛ [attr="class","nokibody"]Jasper watched the woman carefully, studying her as he followed her, the hooded lean figure silent as she wound a path ahead, grim and severe. He was trying to weigh her up, but it was hard to get a good judge on the recruiter beyond she was a stern woman of a very direct and brisque nature. Still, he admired her professional attitude, even if she lacked much tact, and her gait was one of a confident and strong figure. Very little grace... still, he supposed she was just another grunt, one set to spot out potentials and get them in the base, no more and no less. And, to be fair, it had taken some work to figure out she was the one he was supposed to go to, some... innocent questions, worried remarks about the criminals, then I heard this, did you know about that? Watching faces for expressions till he found one that sparked an interest, one that replied to nearly scripted questions. Tit for tat, each trying to weigh if the other was innocent on purpose. It seemed his answers answered her well enough, and their conversation changed ever so slightly. Then she invited him to follow if he wanted to find people who really knew more. Bingo. He had let himself smile slightly in victory before she had led him out of town to summon a staraptor from her side and lift him to Rifa way.
Only a few minutes later and now she was slipping past foliage and rock to a craftily hidden secret base, and Jasper, before rather unimpressed as he followed, now felt a wave of interest pass over again. Impressive... he had expected something of a hidden base of operations, but this had been very well designed indeed. And as she kept a swift pace leading him through, he admired its size as they passed through one floor, then down into a second, then a third before she finally stopped. It took some crafty planning and a lot of power to build such an elaborate structure completely hidden from sight and unknown... Jasper had been mildly intrigued before to see what there was here, feeling some presence of promise, but now he was eager to see what more there was to offer. By far these hunters were the most impressive group he had yet to meet, far more organized and efficient than all those ridiculous "teams" he had been met with before.
His guide stopped here, head jerking as she glanced back at him, and Jasper gave her a nod, curt, respectful, then pushed open the door with a gloved hand to pass through. His gaze immediately swept the laboratory design of the room appraisingly, warily, scanning to see who was there, not really expected anyone to be waiting for him but careful of whether he was intruding or not.

"Hm? Who's there? Well?" a sudden voice came from within the room as the doors opened, reavling table tops with various nicks and nacks that were obviously made for science-things. What, you might not be too sure, but they're obviously made for science.
There came a pattering of feet from somewhere within the lab, and suddenly a man in a rather cliche lab coat appeared, looking as if he were about to hit you with the clip board in his hands (and not from fright or surprise). He seemed to be scowling at you, as if the other man had interrupted something important.
"Well, what is it?" he asked, brows furrowing from behind his glasses. "New recruit, I suppose? Tsk, I always have to be the one to deal with the grunts. Well? Do you know what you want? I haven't got all day."
Yes, this man didn't seem patient in the slightest.

[attr="class","nokitable"] ♛ [attr="class","iconh"] heh, guess he isnt a fan of long starter threads 331 words [attr="class","nokibody"]Jasper glanced through the tools and equipment laid across several tables throughout the room, dark gaze flickering across largely without recognition. Well, he was no scientist... he knew some of the more basic tools from schooling but many were either complex or something far beyond any casual experience. He shouldn't be surprised though, a place like this... it only further proved this was indeed a worthy investment, if they could afford such a spacious place, to power it, to employ scientists and then supply them thus with such a wide and likely expensive array of supplies. Question is, what kind of work went on beyond these doors generally? It was perhaps, in the end, not a terrible concern of his, he had little interest for the current moment in delving into the fields of science and study when there was work to be done among the people and gathering the pokemon. All was well and good when one had knowledge and experiments, but without a strong team or firm footing, well, then...
A voice, snappish and irritable, was quick to greet Jasper before he had even done a full cursory look at the room, and he was quick to respond, his tones cold in response to impatience, yet civil and even. "Jasper Greymark, new recruit." Dark gaze fell upon the man to whom the voice belonged, his footsteps having proceeded the figure himself, decked in a white coat and holding a clipboard in his hand, their gaze unkind as they scowled. A thin-lipped smile came to Jasper's lips, and he inclined his head slightly at them, silent as they tsk-ed in aggravation. "Of course" He answered as they finished, left fingers idly tapping on his slacks, patient and unmoved by their hurried nature. "I see you are quite occupied so I will be swift. A purrloin and murkrow should suit my needs for now" He gestured with a hand, inclining it deferentially, a pleasant but thin smile still on his lips.

"Well, at least you're a smart one to come prepared," the man muttered.
That didn't seem to change his mood, however, as he turned as swiftly left to a back part of the lab. He seemed to open a door to some kind of storage container, before grabbing something and retreating. He then headed back, seeming to grab a bag on his way back.
"Here's your things," said the man as he hastily offered them to the other. "Should have everything. You need something -- don't come crying back to me."
MURKROW: [b]ABILITY:[/b] Super Luck [b]LVL:[/b] 005 [b]EXP:[/b] 0/25 [b]MOVE SET:[/b] Peck | Astonish | Pursuit | [i]Assurance[/i]

[attr="class","nokitable"] ♛ [attr="class","iconh"] Think thats a wrap? 392 words [attr="class","nokibody"]A smile, soft upon his lips but almost mocking in its twist, yet impossible to call anything but polite. "Of course. It's only a matter of efficiency and business." One should always be aware of what he was going into and fully prepared no matter the occasion. That had been one of the first lessons, there was no such thing as being unprepared. Every bit of planning should be thought out, and yet still broad enough to allow for improvisation and contingency plans. To be unprepared was to be prepared for failure. Besides, Jasper so hated having to delay things, especially through indecision. He liked to think he was a simple man of good taste who knew exactly what he wanted and exactly how he wanted it. Purrloin was a graceful creature of balance a poise, a feline yet a dark type, with sharp claws hidden under small paws and devious plots hidden behind a sweet face. It was a stealthy creature as well, capable of walking on two or four legs and quite adapted to hiding in the darkness. Jasper had no doubts about that one.
The other... well, Jasper had found the murkrow to be a fitting complement, to watch the skies where the purrloin covered the ground. They were supposed to be intelligent pokemon who responded well to training if known for greed, and he felt more then confident he could work any habits of... mischievousness or troubles out with some discipline and training.
The, presumably, scientist or researcher had scowled off to a container further back and returned now, passing Jasper two pokeballs and a bag brusquely, still apparently not moved beyond annoyance and general detestment. Hm, well perhaps his other... new colleagues would not be so stiff and irritable. It mattered not though, he could work well on his own as well. He nodded his head, dipping it respectfully before turning to leave. "My humble thanks. I don't think I should have need to see you unless for a job, but I shall expect I will have no need of help." Glancing back the briefest moment, Jasper left, his sharp dress shoes clicking on the floor as he pushed out the door and then began to find his way back up and out of the Head Quarters to get some fresh air and test his new team.
