Tristan Glory













@Sanguine Rose

He was uncertain how she would take being given the honor of having him traveling with her though had not expected her to break out into a fit of laughter. After watching her do so for a bit he came to the conclusion that such a privileged opportunity to travel with a person of celebrity status such as he proved overwhelming to the point of laughing out of disbelief. Having come to this conclusion, he chose to let her get it out of her system." Now if you're quite finished, we can get on our way." Said with a little airy sigh of annoyance wanting Faye to get on with what she intended to do; King gave a pat of his talon showing he wanted to get moving too though Princess shook her head and gave the side of Tristan's head a small smack." Rio!" She yipped with a small disapproving look." Hey! Watch the hair and no more hitting." He muttered out in a hushed tone.

Barely catching what Faye was saying at first until he heard mention of the name Basil which called his attention back to her to hear mention about an egg followed by talk of some forest. At first disliking the thought of traversing through some unknown forest where a number of awful things could happen like getting lost or worse, having his clothes ripped by the foliage or getting dirty again but talks of possible rare fairy types had him intrigued. Among pokemon typing, faires definitely had Tristan's attention as they tended to involve grace and beauty and felt such a touch was missing in his team. (mind he meant no slight or insult to his current pokemon of course)

The mention of Basil, however, had him curiously raising a brow.* Basil? Surely it can't be that Basil. No, it certainly can't be." Internally scoffing to himself in amusement at the mere thought.

How she came to acquire a pokemon egg already was also a curiosity though he preferred to not waste time chit-chatting on such topics at the moment, especially if they intended to be done getting through the forest before nightfall." Very well. Let us be off then." A roll of his hands motioning to head off; waiting for her to take the lead for the time being as he followed a short distance from behind.

The trek proved a short one thankfully, but slow nonetheless which allowed Tristan the time to check his social media accounts. The trip would be spent telling his followers of his journey as a trainer so far (albeit omitting the horrendous lost against Freya) and taking pics of his mons. The shiny Murkrow proved to be the only one to enjoy taking pics making the teen proud while Ace was frightened by the flash and hid against his neck, Princess merely rubbed at her eyes with a complaining murr.

As Tristan observed his followers reactions with hopes of getting more, he failed to notice that they had arrived at the daycare. Only just now taking notice of the egg Faye had pulled out to be inspected while whatever she had just said went unnoticed by the teen." I do hope this won't take too long. And a good salutation to you, good sir!" He hummed out before going back to perusing his phonedex.
D'angelo Schultz







A singular golden cloud somewhat larger than a full grown adult hovered and flew through the town of Rembrandt at a height just above the roof of most buildings. And lying sprawled out out on that cloud was a chubby ninteeen year old with a mixed expression of boredom and exasperation." Uuugh that took forever! Those guards and their inspections... I swear it felt like it took all day." He complained when in reality it had only taken twenty minutes, but D'angelo was never one for remaining in one place for long, especially if said reason for so was a guard's inspection. The young man understood they were just doing their job and any unknown mages were those they had to keep an eye on especially." Can you believe how rude they were? Telling me not to flash my camera in their face and to stop floating about and the endless questions! I thought it was supposed to be an inspection not some pop quiz!" Throwing his arms skyward in an exaggerated annoyed manner, the strap of the camera held in his right-hand flapping about with the screen showing a pic of the chubby male hugging the two guards mentioned against his sides. The look of confusion and annoyance on each of their faces a clear indication this picture was taken through forced means.

Now that the gate was behind him, D'angelo was free to explore the town with a fair number of warnings to not go using his magic haphazardly or harm any civilians which he made sure to make note of with a carry-on motion of the hand and roll of the eyes.

He soon sat up with a yawn and stretch of his arms." Hngh! The authority really loves to hear themselves speak with all their rules and guidelines." Giving a quick scroll through some of the pics on his camera where he saw some of the scenery images and pics of people waving at him as he flew by or at least he thought so while the angry expressions seemed to say otherwise. With a grunt he shifted to lying on his stomach across the golden cloud." I swear, Nimbus, I'm starting to think the people on this region don't see mages often with how jumpy and suspicious most of them have been." As not a single place he has thus visited since entering the region where he wasn't questioned or watched closely and not the kind of attention a traveling entertainer like him hoped for.

Rocking his head against his left palm propped up by the elbow watching the buildings zoom by below." Y ou sure this is the town with the uh... what was it again." Tilting his head in pondering fashion his gaze peeking up at the sky as if expecting to receive an answer from the vast blue space and slow drifting clouds." Guild! Ah-hah I knew I'd get it." The chubby male laughed to himself as the golden cloud shifted and rumbled beneath him as if letting out a groaning sigh; an act that earned the cloud two nudging poke from its creator." Hey, don't you give me an attitude. Blame those guards and their incessant questioning making me forget what we came here for..." Trailing off with his finger still pressing into the cloud as he went cross-eyed for a moment." That is why we came here yeah?"

Nimbus gave a small rumbling in response to D'angelo's question." W-what? O-of course I know what we came to this town for I was just uh...making sure you remembered." Said with an awkward chuckle while averting his gaze to the upside-down camera still held in his hand.

A few seconds of awkward silence before D'angelo pushed himself back upright where he then leaned back towards the cloud trailer hitched to the back-end of Nimbus to stash the camera away for the time being." Ahem! Anyway, I heard mention by the guards this guild is having some kind of special event. Isn't that exciting?! I hope it's an ice cream party or I guess just a normal party is good too." Muttering his thoughts allowed while rubbing at his chin with arms folded across his chest." Whatever it is, we got to hurry up or we're gonna miss it! Let's go and get our partay ooooooooooooon-!" He exclaimed as Nimbus suddenly shifted into higher gear causing D'angelo to scream with his pudgy cheeks and mouth flapping wildly from the sudden rush of wind, tears flying from his eyes as he let loose a loud cheer shortly after.

Uncertain of how long they had dashing along with all the air rushing in his face made keeping track of much difficult, but eventually Nimbus would slow to a stop nearby the guild building where loud rock music and singing could be heard from within. A beat that quickly got D'angelo rocking." Whoo! Looks like we're just in time! C'mon, Nimbus we got to check this place out. Bet we'll see all sorts of interesting people here!" Giving the cloud a few pats signaling to lower enough for him to hop off onto the ground where he did a few stretches and moved his legs to thoroughly wake them up." Let's get this unhitched for now." Humming along and lightly dancing to the beat as he gave his hands a few quick rubs and with it the cloudy rope holding the trailer went poof in a puff of smoke and with a wiggle of his fingers had the trailer gently floated up unto the sky eventually settling in place fair distance above the building.

" And with that out of the way, it's time to shake our derriere and get jiggy with it!" Thrusting his wide hips from side to side and slid his way into the guild, accidentally bumping some passerby's with his big butt as he went.

And following close behind was Nimbus who gave a quivering reluctant sigh or at least in the way a cloud could sigh.
Tristan Glory













@Sanguine Rose

After some more coaxing and gentle comforting, Tristan was finally able to make his way into the dining room where he gave some quick apologies for being late. Before he got himself seated at the table he gave his mons their food, making sure to give King and Princess some extra treats for all the hard work they did while the Torchic clung to his left leg shivering too scared to eat with all these people and pokemon around.

Tristan did an internal annoyed sigh at the orange chicken's cowardice as he knew dealing with it was gonna be difficult and time consuming. He just had to hope this Torchic would prove to be worth all extra effort the bird will require.

But that was a tomorrow issue as right now he just wanted to fill his belly. He took a look over the food and from it felt a sudden forlorn pang; a teen so used to eating nothing but five-star quality food from the best chefs from around the world only to find himself reduced to having to eat a meal better fit for the servants or pets. As expected, Tristan had been hesitant to eat at first while struggling to keep a friendly smile on his face as he gave thanks for the meal.

A meal that would likely be served at a diner or a cheap buffet and yet had proven to be the most delicious and flavor impacting dinner he had ever eaten. Hell, this might as well been his first proper meal period. Every bite he took flooded his tastebuds with a whole new world of flavor and then the realization hit him. All them five star meals with top of the line ingredients while tasty, always tasted plain and cold, nothing like Mrs. Anderson cooking where every single bite all but gushed in his mouth. His tired and agitated body filled warmed with each bite; strangely enhanced by the fact he actually had people to share this meal with for once besides the rare times Chives had free time to eat with him.

The pampered teen who had just been hesitant was now chowing down like a person starved. The fact he could eat as much as he like instead of those tiny portions that were nothing more than samples only spurred him on. It took all he had to keep from crying as he ate.

When it was over and the scrumptious high dwindled, Tristan once again thanked them for the meal and graciously accepted the offer to stay the night. Any chance to avoid having to sleep in a tent was one he would happily take.

Tristan spent the rest of the evening taking a nice long hot bath with lavender scented bath salt to wash all the filth and dirt. He spent his time in the bath tub trying to figure out a name for the torchic and thinking over some of the things Bill told him.

A new day and a good night's rest had Tristan waken up refreshed and in a good mood and after gathering his things would have his mons gather together." Now that we had a good meal and night's rest, we can put the awful ordeals we went through yesterday behind us. As today, I intend to have us achieve proper victories and work towards conquering our first gym and we shall do it all with our newest team member!" He proclaimed while pointing at the torchic who jumped with a frightened chirp while receiving a cheer from both King and Princess." Torchic may be cowardly and a weakling that no one will think of much now, but just you wait. I train and turn our little friend here into the ace of team Glory. Thus, King and Princess I want the two of you to give a proper welcome to your new party member...Ace!" Pumping his fist up as he stated the torchic's new nickname bringing out another bout of cheering from the two this time directed at the shivering bird who was quickly overwhelmed by the attention that he ran off to hide behind Tristan's legs." Yeah...its gonna take a lot of work but... that will just make Ace's turn around even more impressive. And come that day it will be others that will be the ones whose scared." Nodding as he peered down at the scared bird.

Some more pep talk and comforting to settle Ace down and Tristan was ready to set out with the magenta bird resting atop his head, Ace and Princess each resting on a different shoulder though Ace was huddled against his neck who would only press closer when Faye approached him.

" Travel together? Hmph, quite bold of you to think I'd allow a frumpy girl with zero fashion sense to travel with me. But, I can't blame you for wanting to travel with me, a Glory. I take it you have seen this gorgeous face before, and my capture of the egg thief having impressed you so much that you feel traveling with me will be safer for you, especially with the impressive team I have." He goaded with a fancy pose and a sparkling grin while indicating towards his mons, each surely not too easy to get, especially the torchic that he figured very few trainers in this region would have." I am in a rather good mood. Very well, I suppose we may travel for a time or at least as long as it benefits us. Might be good for Ace here too." A quick glance at the bird shivering against his neck.

" And by some miracle might be able to help with those absolutely dreadful rags you call clothes..." Trailing off as he glanced Faye over with a distasteful frown." But even miracles have their limits. At least you have some good mons of your own so that's something. Anywho, let us be off then and know that team Glory will keep us safe."

With that he moved to depart only to stop a few steps after and turn back." Where exactly are we even going?"

@Sanguine Rose

With Tristan having little to do but leave it up to King to try and coax the torchic out, he simply sat there idly looking over his pokedex and the pokemon that had been scanned out of boredom. At times he would look over to the couch to see no change though torchic's frantic scared chirping had lessened considerably; a sign that whatever King was doing might be working or that the orange chicken was tiring itself out.

The teen wasn't sure if had been scammed or just unlucky on the torchic the rancher picked or what, but whatever excitement he had at receiving such a rare pokemon vanished. And would be replaced with a hunger that grew with every passing second, he was forced to sit there and wait. A part of him wanted to just drag the bird out and get it back into his pokeball though that probably would do nothing but ensure the torchic forever fearing and hating him, plus not a good look to his other mons.

The smell of the food didn't help either and only escalated his hunger. Tristan was pondering on what to do when the frumpy girl whose name he either never got or simply forgot approached.

He leered at Faye; suspicious of her goal and after the encounters he has had with girls today who could blame him. Then he saw her put the bag of pokemon food for birds besides him. Tristan looked at it then shook his head." Hmph, who asked for your help? And as you can clearly see it's not about hunger." Motioning towards the shivering torchic being chirped at by King in a soothing manner." And it's clearly just overwhelmed by my shining presence." Waving her away dismissively.

It was at that moment he received a small bite to his arm as Princess yipped angrily up at him." Ow! What the hell was that for?!" He asked the canine incredulously only to see her pointing at the departing Faye then at the bag with a shake of the head." Riou riou lu." She huffed out at him as if reprimanding him.

Tristan winced at the bite to his arm and pride leading to him feeling bad. He opened his mouth to say something only to get yipped at again by Princess who averted her gaze. After a few seconds, the silver-haired teen muttered before giving a begrudging." Thanks..." A nudge from the Riolu." And... sorry." Keeping his head turned whether to hide the shame or embarrassment he was feeling, even seeing Princess give him a comforting smile did little to help.

Princess thought her trainer was just being a jerk, but for Tristan who was so used to having people help him purely to get something out of him due to his family connections and figured Faye to be no different. Since she had no real reason to help a stranger like him which involved giving up some of her own food. It definitely seemed like an odd thing for someone to do at least in Tristan's view.

At this point though it no longer mattered. The bag was there so he might as well try it or be stuck sitting there for possibly hours. Aiming a small glare at the bipedal canine while rubbing the spot of his arm she bit before grabbing a small handful from the bag and inspected it, unsure if the torchic would even like this kind.

A supportive nudge from Princess got him to stop being hesitant and with a reluctant sigh gently extended his hand forward." Um...here little uh... chicky? You hungry?" Tristan made sure to speak in a low and quiet voice with his palm open in a way where the torchic poking its head out from the couch thanks to King's gentle coaxing could see. A little shake of the food and sniffs seemed to do the trick as the scared chick slowly crawled his way out; nervously stepping over where the orange bird gave a few cautious and nervous pecks before feeling at ease enough to eat.

Menzai sought to go after the humans to make sure they were safe, but he had to hold off doing so due to having Sloth being on his tail. The great lumbering beast was thankfully dreadfully slow and with the use of his agile manuevering through the tree branches made luring it in a direction away from where the group ran off. He did so in the hopes of keeping Sloth from discovering the village and once he had lured it a fair distance, did Menzai stealthily break off from the purposeful pursuit.

First making sure the vile abomination wasn't on his tail before feeling it safe enough to make his way to the field where he hoped the group to be. Through the trees he dashed and hopped; not once stopping through it all; pushing through the exhaustion and ignoring whatever pain that throbbed through his body as the wolf sole thought and goal was to ensure the humans were safe.

Eventually reaching where the humans were gathered and dropped down a short distance away where he would be greeted by the fierce glare and panic-stricken question." A-Are you all safe and..well?" Was the first thing he said through heavy pants, his face damp and slick with mud, those dark blue eyes etched with concern, pain and relief to see that everyone had made here.

" I... do not know what that creature was or..where it..came from as it is..not native to these woods." Pushing himself to speak while trying to catch his breath." I can... only offer.. my apologies for failing to... notice the beast until it was too late." Bowing his head in shame for his negligence.

" Yes, for now we need... to get to the village." Nodding to Aidan's suggestion and attempted to step forward to guide the way when he collapsed to one knee. All the exhaustion and pain piled on from straining and pushing himself finally hit him all at once with the adrenaline no longer pumped through him. He knelt there struggling to breathe, the white haori caked in mud mixed with the faint crimson tint of blood spilling from the cuts made from the few times he failed to avoid the tentacles swipes and on closer inspection could see the soles of his feet were especially messy with blood soaked mud.

After a few tries to stand up to no avail, Menzai slumped down having no choice but to let his body rest." Go... Go and make your way to the village...I will follow shortly...need to...report this to the elders." He told the group through gritted teeth, his tone strained and tired hinted with pain.
Tristan Glory













Tristan wasn't sure what to think of Neil's comforting words and advice. So used to being put down and insulted or told fake compliments by fellow rich kids to get on his good side, but the things this rancher said sounded so...genuine. It took him off-guard and left the rich teen confused which only added to the things he needed to think over and work out.

The conversation had been just as confounding as it had been helpful leaving him with no idea how to really respond other than." Um..thank you, Mr. Neil... I think." Muttering the last part to himself as he gave a small nod to show he heard the ursaring sized rancher; grateful to be alone as his mind was like a buzzing beehive of thoughts and confusion.

He had been staring into space, lost in thought when Frida's thick accentuated voice rang out snapping him out of the trance. The tantalizing aroma of her cooking soon struck his nose reminding him of his hunger and with it made his belly rumble.

The call for dinner had also seemed to be the signal to have Princess and King return to him as the two were clearly hungry and eager to eat after all they had been put through." Right, let's eat then shall we!" Patting his knees twice before standing up only to stop right then having nearly forgotten." Oh, yes. Before we eat I dare say its time to meet our new team member." He said with a nod of his head to which Princess threw up her paws with an excited." Lu!" Though King gave a curious tilt of his head.

Tristan grabbed the pokemon containing his recently acquired torchic and gave it a toss to reveal the small orange feathered chick. The tiny birb gave a rustling shake of his body and head as if just waking from a nap only to realize it was surrounded by pokemon and a human it didn't know and shortly after Princess padded over." Rio! Lu riolu." She chirped happily in greeting with an extended paw as the teen watched the little chick, stroking his chin in a pondering manner." Hello there, little chick. My name is Tristan and I am pleased to announce that you, my lucky little friend is now part of team Glory! Go ahead, Princess and help our new friend take it in." He exclaimed proudly; elated to have another rare mon as a part of his team.

Each of them had failed to notice that throughout their introduction that the torchic was trembling with a scared expression on his face that worsened with every second the human spoke and the Riolu pressed closer. Save for King, who had been silently observing had taken noticed of it and extended his left wing." Murk krow krow murkrow." He called out gently to Princess as if trying to tell the bipedal canine to step back, but by that point it was too late.

A loud shrill terrified chirping rang out from the torchic as he began running about in a frantic panic. Any attempt to calm or soothe the scared bird from Princess only seemed to make the poor bird chirp louder." Agh! The hell is going on..ow!" Tristan cried out in pain, the shrill chirping grating on their ears forcing the three to try and cover their ears as the Torchic ran off to dive under and hide under the couch where faint scared chirping could be heard.

" Ok, um.... what just happened?" The teen said out of an air of annoyed confusion while glancing at the two in turn as both could only shake their heads having no idea themselves." Oh this is just great. After going through all that and the Torchic we get is a big coward?!" He facepalmed with a groan; just his luck and after all the efforts and work only for them to give him a torchic who turned out to be a massive chicken in the figurative sense. And just when dinner was ready too.

" Well isn't that great. The hell am I going to do with such a scaredy cat... or how to even get him to come out?" Tristan who was tired, hungry and confused was quickly agitated and now wondering if this was a trick of the ranchers to give him a defective torchic.

His anger was bubbling up once more and was thinking of going over to force the bird out, when he felt Princess's paw gently pat at his leg. Every pat seemed to melt away his anger till he was simply a bit irritated." Riou riolu lu." She spoke gently before pointing at King who was slowly hopping towards the couch as if to tell him to let King try to soothe and lure Torchic out. Tristan wondered why Princess wasn't the one doing it but after a few gentle chirps from the magenta Murkrow did he notice its frantic chirping die down to a more low, shaky chirp seeming to be conversing.

Unsure of what was going on, but since there was nothing he could really do right now and chose to sit down on the floor." Guess there's nothing to do but wait." Once again the smell of the food hit causing both of their bellies to rumble to which Tristan let out a drawn-out sigh." Go ahead and eat, Princess. We will be there shortly... I hope." Resting his chin against his right palm propped up against his right leg after having made himself comfortable while Princess gave a shake of her head and settled herself onto his lap where she nuzzled against him to both keep her trainer company and to comfort as they waited.
Tristan Glory













Tristan had raised a brow inquisitively at Neil's words having seemingly guessed wrong on what he wished to discuss with him. Watching the huge man sit down and make himself comfortable though even sitting he still proved taller than even if only a little which further signified that this man was not to be trifled with. The teen hesitated at first to take a seat at Neil's behest, but after a moment of uncertainty he moved to join him; curious of what the tired rancher wanted to talk about.

Listening to the man talk with words with clear intent to comfort, but it had a more opposite effect as it dredged up the anger and betrayal he sought to put behind him. And with it came the wounded pride from battling against the man with two against one, not that he felt bad initially since the man was a thief and hardly a proper trainer which warranted no reason to fight him fairly. Yet, he couldn't help but be reminded of the awful lost he suffered against Freya and not just him, but King probably felt awful over it as well, the bird deserving a proper redemption.

While Neil's words did bring out the unpleasant emotions he wanted to forget as there was a lot he needed to work through, they did give him some comfort and perspective.

He has seen and known a number of assholes and scumwads; hell, he practically lived his life surrounded by rich pricks who ran dirty businesses and scams. And of course, the douches much like him though surprisingly Tristan was actually one of the nicer ones who wasn't completely closed minded or thought himself above everyone at least completely outside of fashion. He hated scamming and thieving especially when those of lower class suffered from such constantly and it's probably why he wanted to help this ranch so much or why he wanted to believe and give Robbie a chance. This made the farmhand's betrayal sting worse even though the man was a thief and a stranger to him.

Ultimately, Tristan was confused more than anything; uncertain on how to handle this whole ordeal or how to proceed though Neil's words helped in giving a possible path. His horrid sense of direction proving to be an issue in more than simply physically.

A deep inhale and slow heavy exhale and with it flowed the negative emotions." Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Neil. This has been a difficult day for both your ranch and I, albeit due to different reasons." Nodding his head as he felt his tense body relaxing a bit." You and your family has dealt with enough to worry about the problems of some teen stranger, but I remember your words and figure things out at my own pace. I hope the same for you as I can hardly imagine how much worse it is for you. " He might have come out of this finding it difficult to trust others again for a while but hopefully he meets good, trustworthy people to show trusting and trying to see the good in others wasn't wrong. Robbie was just an unfortunate and desperate man; a thought that there was far more to the man and this whole thing continued to nag at the back of his mind, however.
Tristan Glory













A good mood that was short-lasting after the kid admitted to not recognizing him at all though the fact her sister hid the magazines likely explained it. Not to mention that kids didn't really have interest in models or topics regarding fashion so it's not like his pride or ego was hurt, mostly just disappointed having his excitement deflate.

Not long after did Neil walk in and in the big bear of man's arms were bottles of what he surmised to be the Moomoo milk which had him perking up at the prospect of getting his rewards. Hearing Neil talk to Lisa like an actual loving father definitely felt foreign to Tristan and certainly stung him with a bit of bitterness though Lisa's pretty guy compliment more or less got his mind off mainly due to it throwing him off guard.

Waiting for Lisa to run out of the room before standing up, his once tense body relaxing a bit as the mere presence of kids often had him feeling uncomfortable. Though he found he didn't mind Lisa *as* much, her creepy staring aside as she at least had some semblance of manners unlike most." She is an um...cute kid?" His awkward attempt at complimenting the father's child; unsure if it was the right way to do so or if he should say more which left him standing and lightly bouncing on the balls of his feet in awkward fashion.

So, you can imagine how thankful he was to have the awkward air ended by Neil handing him the Moomoo milk. A drink Tristan could not recall having tried before, but a quick inspection told him they looked to be tasty that promised to be a delicious treat for both his pokemon and himself. He happily took the rewards, but the one he was most happy and excited for was the pokeball holding the Torchic, the coveted pokemon he went through this whole ordeal for and now that it was in his hands could dare say was worth it all.

" Thank you, Mr. Neil. I will be sure to take the utmost care for this one." Tristan stated his promise with a smiling nod, turning the ball over in his hand.

He was looking forward to meeting the pokemon, but with Princess and King off interacting with that frumpy girl's pokemon he thought it best to wait till they were with him again before doing so. This would also allow him to think up a name to give the cute chick.

There was also the matter of Neil who looked as if he had some things to say or to talk about, his guess that it involved Robbie. The rich teen clasped the pokeball to his belt for the time being before craning his head back to look up at the giant burly rancher. Taking a moment to think of what to say then cleared his throat." This whole situation is... unfortunate and I can imagine how difficult it must be regarding Robbie." His face showed a number of emotions after mentioning the man's name with anger, sadness and a bit of pity." The man made mistakes and what he did was wrong but... through it all the one thing I can say is that... Robbie was...is a good person." Nodding in the hopes his words were of some small comfort.

Having said that, Tristan started thinking over their interactions and the things Robbie told him. The way he acted and how serious he was regarding the file or the fact he told him about a person he needed to hand it over had him pondering over the things he said. Now that he was actually given a chance to think on it... things didn't add up as only an absolute moron would try to cheat the mafia at their own casino as the plan with the ditto seemed too well thought out which went against the image of a stupid person. But the things that stood out the most was the folder itself. Why would the mafia give someone that stole from them anything of actual importance that could be damning to them? And this person he was to find and hand it over to... it looked to be more planned if anything.

He lacked enough information to figure this out, but one thing was for sure. There was definitely far more to this folder and the situation surrounding it. This only confirmed just how dangerous holding onto it might actually be; hell, he had no way to know if the person he was to hand it off to was even a good person or someone part of a rivaling gang.

Tristan was starting to realize the danger was far bigger than initially thought and needed more time to think on this. For now, the best thing to do was to keep quiet and tell no one about it.
