Ken: -dusting himself off and collecting his pages, before noticing Tessa and slowing his movements a touch- ... Yeah. I've got every reason to... My own mother's been taken by them, and she was just trying to cure them herself. I want these things purged. ...Why do you ask? -remembers his manners quickly- Ah, by the way, my name is Kenichi Takuma... But you can simply call me Ken. -Bows-

Tyler: We've got quite the little band going...

Wraith: <Not like we aren't still doomed.>

Cieth:<You're not going to give up insisting that we're dead are you.>

154

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Tessa: Geez dude, I just needed a yes or no. But whatever! I'm Tessa and these are some other people! We're killing Missingno. Wanna come?

Jake: Would you lot get out of my city?!

155

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Wraith: <Not until you give up that hopeless optimism.>

Tyler: -facepalms at Tessa- I'm so sorry, officer...

156

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Sarah: Well, hopefully we can fix everything.

Aldaris: <Hopefully.>

157

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Ken: -sighing and scratching the back of his head- Sorry, Tessa... Kind of bad at first impressions. Anyway... -looks back at the house for a minute before nodding- Yeah. Count me in on killing Missingno. I've got some medical skills, so I should be able to keep you all going.

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Tessa: Sweet! Officer Dorko over here's getting impatient, so I'll have to get your stuff later. C'mon, we're going to see Arceus is Hearthome.

Jake: You're going to try. And fail. But it diesn't matter to me; just don't get in the way of the Order Police.

159

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Ken: Alright then... Let's get going. -Heads out with the group on the road.-

-About half an hour later, Ken picks up his pace a little bit to match Tessa and walk up beside her-

Ken: So...And you don't have to answer if you don't want to... Would you mind if I asked a bit about you? ...Kinda curious.

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Tessa: I've trained all my life to take down Missingno. That's all you need to know. I, on the other hand, have information I need from you.

-pulls out her notebook-

Tessa: Do you have any special skills, Pokemon, knowledge, connections... Anything that can help us?

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Ken: Medical training up to and including study and treatment of most poisons, first aid, minor surgery, and studying the Glitch ever since it first appeared... Though most of that was notes from my mother. My Torchic, Tori, Spe my Spheal, Rak my Spinarak... And for her own sake I left Nina my Happiny back in Jubilife under care. As for connections, I used to have an indepth relationship with the Order Police... But as you saw that connection has been severed. The only other connections I can think of would be my Aunt Joys around the region.

-Sighs, putting his hands in his pockets-

Ken: Sorry I asked about you... It's obvious you don't want people to know about it. ...Even if I wouldn't mind.

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Tessa: -scribbles furiously in her notebook then puts it away- We can get to know each other after we kill Missingno.

-walks backwards for a moment to face the group-

Tessa: Hey! Does anyone know where we're going?

163

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Tyler: ... -sigh-

Wraith: <Of course.>

164

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Sarah: We're going to Hearthome, right? Uh, did anyone bring a map?

165

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

-In one motion, Ken whips out a PokeNav from one of his bags, flicks it on, dials up Hearthome into it and hands it to Tessa, before walking on quietly and feeling a bit embarrassed at having come right out and asking about her.-

166

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Tessa: Oh cool! C'mon, it's this way!

-she leads them off, bent over the Pokenav-

A few adventure-filled time units later...

Tessa: Okay, made it to Hearthome. Now where's the Church of Arceus...?

167

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Ken: -Leans over and double-taps the screen, zooming in on the town, and highlighting all the landmarks inside- You know... Considering how trained and mysterious you are, you're not one for tech, are you?

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Or we could have just looked at the church steeple.

-Adrian points to the church steeple in the distance, visible over some over the buildings-

169

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Tessa: I've never seen one of these, okay? Besides, tech glitched even before Missingno. showed up. I don't trust it.

-she turns to face the steeple-

Tessa: ... Yeah, okay.

-starts walking towards the church-

170

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

-Follows suit-

171

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Wraith: <Besides, who said anything about trained?>

Merle: <Hush.>

-Tyler follows Tessa towards the Church-

172

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

-Sarah follows the others-

Sarah: How much you want to bet we'll get caught by something unexpected on the way to the church?

173

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

Tessa: That depends on how fast we run to get there.

174

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

-Tyler speeds up slightly-

175

Re: Here Be Glitches! (Open)

We've gone to long without an attack. I'm almost certain one is coming up.
