Just found out an online friend I used to RP with passed away very suddenly and unexpectedly. Didn't know them super well, but the news is saddening all the same =(

Bio
Long timer roleplayer, been at it for... god, almost 15 years now all told. Hasn't been all sunshine and roses, but I like to think I've improved somewhat steadily as time has gone on.
I generally like to play older characters, or at least toward the higher end of an age range. Also, just about all of my characters are caring and protective in some capacity, even the rare meanie that I make.
I play a mixture of male and female characters. I myself am a guy.
Generally speaking I try to post at least once per week.
@Saltwater ThiefYou said this six days ago...If school is taking up your time or delaying you, then I need to know these things out of courtesy. I tend to skip people or even drop them from my games when they go AWOL due to this site housing so many people with short-attention spans. Six days wouldn't be when I'd do it, but if you hit 14, even when it says I'll go looking for you, I won't. If it takes 14 days for someone to post without any sort of notice or heads up, then I know their muse is shot/dead and I don't try to fix it.
I've actually been waiting to see your response to Feisty's question so I could figure out if I should let her post first for the sake of sequencing. But if this is a concern of such significance, I will go ahead and ignore that. Your concern is appreciated.
@Raijinslayer@BlackPanther@Feisty-Pants I can have Seth get to the exit and signal you two to get to him once you have Vix, unless you think there's something more pertinent he should handle?
They followed the Club Staff Boy on a winding trip through Viridian City, making a couple of stops along the way. Was he actively trying to shake them? Seth certainly didn't think so. The way he was moving didn't suggest an ounce of suspicion. For now, it seemed he really was just popping in to grab some chips and a drink. Mercifully, he was right; the Boy never so much as zig zagged once they were in the forest. Looked back a few times, sure, but Seth and Jaden had been very cautious. Just as they were about to follow him down the door beneath the boulder, however, Jaden called a hold. He told Seth he didn't want to get him in trouble or harm, and advised him to go get the Police and lead them here, then he went down the ladder before the redheaded boy could protest.
"Go and get the Police?" Seth asked aloud in disbelief, "Is he trying to clear his conscience, or is he honestly that daft?"
With all the mess at the Lodge that was entirely likely to still be getting worked on, even a report that he knew where the perpetrators had gone was likely to be met with a waiting list. And even if they saw him immediately and believed the words of a 16 year old on the matter, by the time he brought them here it may already be too late! So, with a breath to steel himself, Seth marched forward and down the hole after Jaden.
It was dark in what was apparently a laboratory, but that was probably a good thing- it would help him stay hidden. The dim lights and glow from the liquid in the tubes shed just enough light for him to witness the... experiment that was happening on the other side. So, he thought, that was how they were getting the super-powered Pokemon to trade in. It made him sick to his stomach in every way, but he swallowed it and kept it down. They were here for something special, delivering justice could wait.
Seth watched from the corner nearest the ladder as Jaden crept over near the tanks. The Pikachu at his feet suddenly started tugging at his pant leg, pointing to the Ninetails just nearby. Gears turned and clicked in Seth's head at the sight. Pikachus were supposed to have fairly good noses, and with Vulpixes evolving with simple Fire Stones, it wouldn't have been hard for them to have evolved Vix already... would it really be that simple? And furthermore, the Pokemon they'd been vendoring had been obedient to a T. What if they'd already inflicted such on her? Regardless, he corrected himself, if his suspicions were correct and that WAS her, they needed to get her out.
He turned his eyes back to the scientists, watching to see if they did anything in particular should it come time to release the Raticate from the tube. Any clue as to how to open the things would help, he thought as he began to creep along the wall. Jaden was going for a nearby button, an alarm by the look of it. Clearing the lab might help... but how long would it last? Probably not long, and if there was a window, any window, they'd need to use it...
OOC
Seth is watching the scientists to see if they indicate how to open the tubes or if they make any particular motions for guards, backup, etc when the button is pushed.
@Raijinslayer do you think it's plausible that Jaden might have told Seth that Vix doesn't have a ball on the way there?
And @Holy Soldier since the post tthat might've had this detail got overwritten, would the other tube pokemon have their balls nearby? On the panels or in cases near their tube maybe?
If the answer to both is yes, I think I have a way for Seth to figure out it's our fox friend.
@Saltwater ThiefDammit, sorry I just wanted to get a post out, but I probably should've waited on you.
Well it's not that, I was under the impression or idea that the best way to go about this was for Jaden to figure out the Ninetails is Vix (with a little help from pikachu) and start trying to get her out while Seth gets on the button in case it's needed. Buuuuuuut, since Jaden is now hitting the button, I need to think of something for Seth to DO besides hide in the corner and inner monologue, because I just can't make myself put up a post where my character contributes nothing to the scene at hand. The trick to that is just going to be finding something, since he can't possibly sleuth out Vix and I also can't or shouldn't will details of the location into existence. It's going to take me some time to come up with.
