[Gold, you have found one (1) video tape! It has no marks on it, but it is rewound and ready to be played, if a VCR can be found...
Do you play it, Gold?]
Do you play it, Gold?]

[... yeah he'll play it, why not
it's not like this place has EVER done him wrong or embarrassed him or anything like that
hell it could be a porno for all he knows and wow he has not seen any good pornos in a looong time
(crys makes sure of that and he's got silver for plenty of material anyway so)]

[The tape clicks in, looking over the "beach". It seems serene, several people wandering in and out of frame as they enjoy the luxuries of the beach, ignoring the camera.
Then, who steps into frame but Yellow? She's wearing a swimsuit, but takes no effort to hide her hair, showing her short cut and making it quite clear who it is. She begins speaking, in an almost Bob Ross-like tone and delivery.]
Hello! I'm Yellow. While I am best known for my toxicology, and even my art skills, I'd like to share something with you today. I'd like to invite you to come fishing with me today! And I'd like to personally invite you to grab your line and bait and come along for the ride.
[She pulls a fishing box into frame, setting it down on a stool she prepared. She opens it up. It's full of everything one would need for fishing! Except...]

Oh, darn! I forgot my fishing rod, whatever will I do?
[Yellow puts on a big show of infomercial disappointment, rummaging through the box and hoh-humming. Until finally, she pulls something out - something that's familiar. And she flicks it, straightening out its collapsed form. She taps the end in her palm, like a mugger postures with a bat.]
Perfect. Looks like we're in luck, folks! I can take the time to show you how to make a makeshift fishing rod. Come on with me, we'll see what it takes~

[And in the event you're watching with dread at this point, Gold, it changes scene. Now Yellow is in what looks like a workshop, surrounded by tools and placing the cue stick on the work table. Everything is set up very neatly and purposefully in frame.]
Welcome back! Here, I'll show you what it'll take to convert this beat-up ol' cuestick into something you can use... eh, on the fly. Won't be worth beans but it'll get us out of this pinch, don't you think?
[At which point Yellow begins; the shots are framed lovingly around the torture of the cuestick. Its tip is sawed off, and any solid center hollowed out. Holes are drilled - "oopsie, clumsy me, let's try drilling the other side entirely!" - and drilled, and drilled. It resembles swiss cheese by the time Yellow is done mutilating it, and then she threads the fishing line through the holes and places the reel into the handle, ruining it for good. It's an agonizing set of clips that takes a wonderful ten minutes of footage.]

Now! Let's go fishing!
[Yellow puts the cuestick on her shoulder, and the video cuts back to the beach. Yellow has returned there with the cuestick-turned-shitty-fishingrod and has found a comfortable rocky outcrop.]
Yes, this should be good. There'll be a lot of big, strong fish to try and catch, here!
[And so she casts! As she waits, she idly whittles some of the wood off of the shaft with a knife, whistling pleasantly as curls of wood flutter away in the breeze. She stops when something starts tugging the line, the cuestick letting out a sickly crackling sound as it was strained.]
Oh boy, our first bite!

[Tug! Reel! Pull!!! Surely by now, Gold, you're wishing that she gets tugged into the water and attacked by a Pokémon. But it never happens. Eventually, Yellow pulls in a humongous tentacruel, placing it on the beach.]
Good first catch! Looks like our fake fishingrod held up for a jelly - go on home, big buddy, don't get mad at me.
[Back into the water it goes! And Yellow casts again.
The next fifteen minutes is followed by more sea life pulled from the water. It's quite admirable, how that cuestick is holding up...!]

[Until, of course,]
Ah hah! This oughta do it!
[She starts reeling in something, the cuestick cracking threateningly as it bended in ways it was never meant to bend. Yellow pulls at it for a solid five minutes, the Gyarados at the end of the line leaping out of the water. The cuestick simply shatters, splintering explosively. But Yellow, with the forethought to wear gloves, just brushes the splinters out of her hair and off of her shirt and chucks the broken handle into the rocks.]

[Yellow returns to the camera! It cuts away, back at the earlier spot at the beach. Yellow is all pleasant smiles.]
Why thank you for joining me today on my little fishing adventure! I drew us something nice to commemorate just how interesting our little journey was with that chunk of wood!
[She holds up her sketchbook, where she's lovingly drawn a gyarados at the bottom of the sea chewing on the remains of the cuestick.]
You'll join me next time, won't you?

[And then, finally, the scene shifts to Yellow in a small room, sitting comfortably in a posh chair.]
This video wouldn't have been possible without Gold. Truly, a boy so stupid to leave something that valuable behind? Almost left a PokéDex! What an idiot - but that idiocy wouldn't have led to the most wonderful catharsis I've had since I assassinated our last "troubling" character.
Count your blessings, my friend. It's only a matter of time before the promise is broken. Hopefully you aren't too stupid to trust him to fight for you. So my advice to you: take time to really savor the little things. You never know when they'll be gone.
[And then the tape ends.]

but he's got some hesitance because he did promise silver
he wants to keep his promise very, very badly
... but he kind of wants to go in and hold it over yellow's head that whatever promise she made with silver is so far gone because he's done everything under the sun with his boyfriend except rolling in the hay and see how she likes that poison
but literally everything is going into his anger he's just gonna pace around his pad like the entire day trying to figure out if he wants to go and tell her and risk death or stay and be safe because silver]

[Do de do coming on in man he's in a great mood hey Gold guess what-]
[he didn't even notice silver come in so he's a bit startled at his voice
and then he's pushing him to go sit on the couch or something hello sweetheart]
Do me a favor and stay here, alright? I got somethin' to do. [he's trying to sound light hearted but he's obviously on edge]

[...??] What happened? Lose a bet? [He seems more tense than that but seriously, what's grinding his gears?]
It's nothin', it's nothin'. Somethin' just came up and I gotta go check it out. That's all. [he's casually gonna check and make sure he's got everything mmm yes good
oh
he's gonna kiss silver though because he knows he could die instead of beating yellow
it... doesn't feel like a "see you later" kind of kiss]

[Gold why can't you just tell him-]
...Okay. [He feigns ignorance along with his mild concern, but... No. Something's up.]
...Okay. [He feigns ignorance along with his mild concern, but... No. Something's up.]
[because you would be against it with every single fiber of your being, silver, and he can't let you interfere
gold'll grin at him at least but that disappears when he turns to leave]
I'm out then.
[... and he's heading straight for rocket base for some sweet fucking revenge
without aibro actually
the monkey is confused too he'll just chill with silver???]

[...Come on, Aibro. Up on his shoulder. We're taking Marshmallow and the gang and going to back him up.
Something's definitely not right here.]

[Gold will get the first of many undoubtedly frustrating notes.
"Not here~♥"
But surely there's another clue...?]
"Not here~♥"
But surely there's another clue...?]
[surely there's another clue
if there isn't gold has noooo problem not a single problem at all with just searching all around the damn base for her
... but surely there's another clue
so what's the riddle tweedledum?]

[If you pay attention, you have three options. There's the air vents, which have been unscrewed and left available to climb through - they have some venonat dust at the edge.
Another option, of course, is to enter the base regardless. There may be a secret passage.
And the third option presents itself in her venonat, staring at Gold from further down the hallway.
Which route do you take, Gold? There is undoubtedly not a single safe path...]

[the air vents he knows probably have something in them
they're cramped and not a place he wants to get trapped in
the obvious choice would be storming the base but that venonat
venonat don't just wander around, and gold knows that video was a big enough "fuck you" to warrant something like this, so he's gonna take the third one
show him where your despicable trainer is, venny]

[Alrighty, then! Enjoy chasing Venny, because he high-tails it down the hallways! Good thing this place is like a maze, right? Can't even stay that far behind or else you'll lose sight of the Pokémon.
Oops, watch those trip wires!]
