[Video/Action for Olivine, especially the home that has definitely seen better days by this point. Minnie is quite busy at their hand-made house. With what, you may ask? Well, as typical, Yen Sid the Medicham is playing with the Pokegear, so when it flickers on, you see...

Well, the human version, anyway.]

All right, everyone! We've got a lot of work to do, and I won't have any slacking. We're going to have lots of guests staying over in the future, so we need to return this place to tip-top shape! Understand?

[There's a small bustle of growls - The smaller 'mons are out to help - Azumarril, Kirlia, Jolteon, Noctowl, and Seel. They all have cleaning equipment saddled on, such as rags, brushes, mops, buckets, soap, etc.]

Now, Mickey and Clarabelle will handle the washing, but we've got some flooding to clear out, and that'll be... Yen Sid!

[Uh-oh, he's been caught. She storms over, and snatches the Pokegear out of his hand, tsking.]

You're not going to slack off this time, mister! Now go join everyone else.

[Booo :| But off he goes. Minnie sighs, and looks at the Pokegear. It's hard to tell, but she's smiling.]

Well, hello everyone. I hope everyone's faring well now that the disasters are over. As you can see, we're going to clean up the damage as best we can. Once it's all spruced up, you're welcome to come and visit us and stay here in Olivine anytime. Heehee, is this what you call free advertising?

It is all Cobra Commander's doing, I am afraid.

I have *tried* to get you removed, Minnie. But I could not. And yet, someone within our ranks is already protecting you, having told Cobra Commander that he will "take care of you" while I believe he means those words far more literally than the Commander thinks. Personally, I suspect Ivan.

Maybe *I* want to get in trouble for your sake. It would be worth it.

No matter. Ivan will protect you now. And if *he* gets in trouble because of it, then I will protect *him*.

[And you can't see it - nor can anyone, unless you're one of his Pokémon in his room - but he's crying his eyes out now.]

Please don't thank me.

Please, Minnie. Don't.

I am not a man, and I am certainly not good.

You place way too much faith in me, Minnie. Way too much.

For one like me, there is no redemption. The dissonant music of chaos, the alluring contradictions of cruelty hold too much power over me.

Trust me, Minnie. If I so much as I shared my daily schedule with you, you would soon grow to hate me.

So we are.

Minnie. How can you always see the good in everyone?

While I *could* change my life, my brothers and children do not enjoy the same luxury. To change in such a way would be a selfish act on my part. And I would lose them forever.

[Hell, he's already lost them, in a way.]

... I should not keep arguing with you, when in my heart, I agree with you entirely.

I'll get out of this, someday. Soon. Surely this cannot be a worse prison than the one I risk. And no body injury can hurt as deeply as those in my heart right now. And when I return to Evron, I will work on a different future for our race.
