[ It had surprised Walter too to hear. But he was also glad to be wrong about Diana, although during their chat she still didn't have the same confidence he had in himself, or that Vanitas showed. ]
She has her Pokemon protecting her, and is taking steps to avoid drawing attention to herself. [ Safe was a relative word. Right now they weren't really safe, but they could secure themselves. ]
I have Murkrow who can deliver messages quickly, and the Gear would be useful for urgent matters. I've heard of networks; chatrooms. You add members and can put messages on there for invited individuals to see. Nobody else can see it. With new members joining Rocket, we need to be careful. [ Trust no-one with their new WhatsApp group. ]
I'm currently on the move. Once we can talk all together, we can make further plans. For now, we can at least share information.
[Vanitas nodded and Flood looked satisfied, looking at whoever was off-screen and nodding with a grin. That meant they could reach out to her.]
Good. That's better than nothing.
[Now they just had to work on her confidence. The problem was going to be Jack considering how close Diana was with him.]
If we can make it private that works I guess. [Though he really didn't trust the 'gears at all.] For now we should probably stick with Pokemon until we get all the specifics worked out. Just to be on the safe side and until we know what all the new Rockets are about.
[ Jack was always an annoyance as far as Walter was concerned, although Felix had been the person to gain his ire (and end up getting shocked by a then-young Chaos for his attempts to needle Walter) ]
That's fine. [ His Murkrow were extremely reliable. And experience had shown that people did not take notice of a lone Murkrow running an errand. He pauses and Doll nudges him with a grin and a giggle. ] I will let you know anything of interest I find regarding them.
...If it seems they are suspicious of you, inform me. [ The implication is quiet. But if Vanitas was caught out...Walter knew he needed to concern himself with Vanitas' safety now, both to maintain contact and to maintain his won safety. ]
[It was only fair after all. They were in the same boat now even if Vanitas hadn't quite gone out with a bang yet. He was taking a much slower approach to this because you can damn well bet he was going to milk Team Rocket and take as many Pokemon from them as he could in the process.
Assholes.
Momentary surprise flickers across his face before he smirks lazily as Flood grins widely.]
Worried about me? [It comes out teasingly, a bit dry even before he shrugs, shooting his Phantump a short glare as she whaps his ear.] I will. And tell me if you have any issues. Us traitors have to have one another's backs.
[ The worry comment gets a slightly dry look from him, while Doll cackled happily and returned Vanitas' smile. Funny how alliances kept changing. First it had been drilled that he was with the Order. Then, Team Rocket. Now, 'us traitors'. But this was something different. Something he chose. Without thinking, a smile tugs at his lips. ]
