002; [VOICE | ACTION, caverns expedition rewards]
[From all the laughing going on behind him, one may guess that Jade is at a party. Unfortunately, that isn't the case.]
For those unaware, we've come across some strange stones while searching for the mine and delivered them to the labs for analysis. It's been a hectic week, so we haven't received the results until now, but it seems like we've found quite a large variety of evolution stones. If you're in need of one, I'd suggest you hurry to the labs, before the greedier members of our expedition snatch all of them.
[Honestly, he'd rather keep them for himself (and maybe the Rangers), but his superiors insisted on distributing them. Something about a token of gratitude.]
[And now, a public voice post to everyone, which may be somewhat hard to decipher as the laughing in the background grows steadily louder.]
Does anyone have any experience with persuading unwanted Pokemon to leave your homes? Normally, I'd simply dispose of- [Ah. That could be construed in a negative light.] - that is, dispose of them if necessary, although generally I prefer to drive them out. But it seems Duskull has taken quite a liking to his new friends and I'd rather not harm them.
[There's a loud crash behind him. Jade sighs.] Although I'm beginning to reconsider.
Action:
[Late evening finds Jade heading down to the newly-discovered Mausoleum, Sandshrew trotting along beside him and Duskull swooping around cheerfully over his head. He tries to avoid anyone exploring down there, mostly because he guesses most people wouldn't approve of what he's doing. Which would be trying to pry open the vaults and take a peek at the coffins.]
[He has reasons for doing so. Honest.]

Voice
[More crashing noises. Jade sighs again, thinking of how much time it'd take to get his paperwork all back in order.]
Could you speak with it over the Warp Band? Or do you have to be physically present?
Voice
Speaking over the Warp Band should be fine.
Voice
[After once again checking to make sure the Warp Band is on voice, Jade heads back into his office, where the Ghost-types have gathered. The sounds of laughter and thumping immediately grow louder now that there's no longer a wall separating them from the worst of the chaos.]
Here we are. There's my Duskull and a few Pokemon I've never seen before now, so I'm afraid I can't tell you their names.
Voice
[He clears his throat.]
Excuse me, friends of Duskull?
[Hopefully his voice is able to reach them.]
Voice
[Seems like the Pokemon are asking Flynn if he wants to join the party.]
Voice
I'm sorry, I'll have to decline. The man whose home you are in doesn't appreciate the ruckus you all are making.
Voice
[In the meantime, Jade watches quietly, more amused than anything now that an end is in sight.]
Voice
... If I said yes, would you all promise not to break anything?
Voice
Voice
[Hopefully he won't regret this later.]
Voice
[Well, once the ghosts find the way to his house anyway. For now, Flynn can bask in the light of Jade's warm, warm gratitude.]
My my, I didn't expect that to be so easy.
Voice
Voice
[And he'll end the conversation.]
[Luckily for Flynn (but not Jade), the ghosts get lost on the way to his house and wind up returning to Jade's apartment instead. Oh well. At least it's not Flynn's problem any more.
