Twelfth Dream: Mankeyshines and Snapshots [Action/Video]

[rainsrespite]

Video:

[A new year, and a whole mixed bag of revelations and resolutions are weighing on Yuuna. It's been a while since she made any formal broadcasts, and seated in Ranger HQ, she idly flips on the Warp Band and just starts talking.]

Hey everyone. Got a little bit new news, personal stuff. Figured I'd just announce it all at once. First of all, I got a promotion. I'm the 3rd Division leader now. My old one retired, and I got some recognition for past service. So, I'll probably be around Union a little bit more than usual. Heh. Paperwork.

Moreover, I've been named the Ranger Liason to the Seekers. Most of you can imagine why.

[She smiles wryly, knowing certain parties are going to like that.]

Second, given my new job, I'm supposed to officially announce that my division is officially recruiting. We pay alright, and you'd be working directly for me. If you're interested, or have further questions about the Rangers in general, feel free to stop by HQ. I'll be around late.

Ranger HQ:

[And true to her word? She is. If you have questions that won't work over the Warp Band, Yuuna will be there until dusk.]


Action, Apartment:

[And after hearing this particular announcement, a certain Pokemon of hers is up to no good. Turnip, the Monferno, is so excited by hearing about the promotion that he decides to bake a cake or something.

Something is right, because he's completely incapable of cooking, and it's not long before a billowing cloud of smoke pours out of Yuuna and Merrill's apartment and the Pokemon are forced out into the street. Alarms go off, and the Monferno bolts for it on principle. The fire is dealt with pretty quickly by Uzushio, but the smoke seems to linger somehow...creating quite the scene outside as a panicked Monferno runs back and forth in confusion, grabbing random passersby and gesticulating wildly, jabbering away. Help! Help! The boss is going to kill himmmmm!]

[soulofmagus]

For your division, or the entire ranger corps? [because if it's the latter, that's a great deal of work in addition to being a liason!]

[rainsrespite]

Just my division. Each unit tends to manage their own supplies separately.

[And for the moment her division is herself and...Waver.]

[soulofmagus]

Ah. Well, that's good - you can ensure everything is set up to how you want it. [And Sophia will certainly be happy to help with that for as long as there's at least some help needed]

[rainsrespite]

Yeah, that's kinda the goal. Letting us run our logistics ourselves helps us work better as a unit. Reports are given to the guys over us so they can keep it codified, but that's what I hired Waver to take care of. The paperwork.

[soulofmagus]

So you have Waver for paperwork, and me for delivery arrangements? [smile remains] I suspect he and I will have much to exchange in terms of records. Will they be stored here, or in another room?

How many recruits will you be looking for, do you think?

[rainsrespite]

I'll be requisitioning a records room. So, probably there.

And ideally? Three more. But it's hard to say if I'll get them.

[soulofmagus]

Slow and steady wins the race. [not that they're racing anyone...right?] I'm sure you'll find recruits in now time.

[as for right now:] What do I need to sign for you?

[rainsrespite]

[Ho boy. Here it comes. Yuuna pulls out a thick stack of papers and starts helping Sophia get them filled in.

They'll...be at it a while.]

[soulofmagus]

[ A...very long while.

About half way through, she pauses, massaging her wrist. ]

..All of this is really necessary for an admin position?

[rainsrespite]

I don't make the rules.

[Or it'd just be a simple form...]

But yeah. Let's just...get it done with.

[soulofmagus]

A-alright.

[ At least Waver won't be lacking for work! ]

[rainsrespite]

[And that's why he gets paid the big buck XP]
