[It's the DARNDEST THING. If you've been paying attention to Char (lord only knows why you would want to do that), you might have perhaps noticed that he's been acting kind of strange ever since Green showed up. Oh, he's still stirring up trouble and backsassing his superiors, but there have been these peculiar episodes where he's... actually

Right. That much was obvious. Please elaborate.

Well... he only faceplanted a little bit.

"Still some kinks, though."

...A lot of fine tuning.
He sat up, switching over to human form for the sake of conversation. "I dunno how Pidge makes it look so easy," he grumbled. "If he can do it, this shit should be child's play."

However today she had some business with the library. This weekend Samus was going to go on an adventure, and if she had time to prepare for it, she was going to take advantage of that. While she considered the internet and other digital mediums to be a vastly superior form of researching, sometimes books still held their secrets.
So she made it a point to stop by the library briefly. Just to cover her bases. After browsing the aisles for a few minutes, she finally settled on pulling out a large book titled, "Kanto History: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly" and started thumbing through it. Char in the corner there eluded her sight for the moment but for how long...?

Oh, how about that. His favourite teacher. And those oh-so-sharp aerial predator eyes of his had no trouble making out what was printed on the cover of her reading material. ...Wait, was that right? What would someone like her ever want to know about his native region for? Did it have something to do with more Pokemon fighting rings?
"Hey, Biomech. Whatcha readin' about Kanto for?" Char called out. And probably earned himself some glares from librarians and tiny pikmens for being noisy. Oops.

There he was. Working out of... a notepad? And, that was definitely a text book. She half expected to see the former filled with crude drawings and other distractions but it looked like... he was actually trying to do school work? Possibly? Crazy. She did not try to hide her blatant eyeballing of his attempts at homeworking but said nothing to the matter. Not directly, anyway.
"You look comfortable over there." She started browsing the row again.

Besides, Biomech had sparked his curiosity. Business, huh? He was guessing she wasn't referring to the teacher kind of business with that. But what the hell would a bounty hunter possibly need in Kanto? Pokemon-inhabited regions tended not to be high-crime areas, save for the occasional team of extremist whacko scumbags. Ever since Team Rocket had cleared off, there hadn't been the kind of seedy activity that would call in the big guns.
"Y'know... if you're lookin' to find shit out about Kanto, y'might have better luck askin' somebody who grew up there."

He turned around, wings half-folded. "Cut it kinda close, there. Didn't hit you, did I?"

And got themselves banned from ever coming back to like half of Hearthome City. Oops.
"Green's got other Pokemon he can use if he's gonna fly anywhere, but... yeah, I guess I am practicin' up to give him a ride. He missed out on the actual evolvin', so might as well make sure he gets all the other perks of havin' a Charizard around, right?" Not that missing the act of evolution had really been a bad thing, considering...
