"Certainly! Artifact is a catch-all, after all. I'm glad someone can take initiative. Here you go."

Mythrel pulls from his sleeve... another 1000 Pyen bill, in the same airplane shape Jones put it in. "The same one, yes." He sails it across the table at Stefan. "You've earned it. Thank you for giving my way a chance."

This man is unreadable.

Inei takes the situation as a point to rise, and walks over to the Colonel and extends a hand:"The name's Inei, an Army Ranger. It's good to have more people on-board. Stefan, tell me when you want your favor turned in," says Inei to the man.

That new guy....how could he make Colonel with that attitude and demeanor? Inei was "merely" Staff Sergeant at this stage of his career...some people and their connections. That didn't mean he disliked the man, he had no reason to, but he was still a bit miffed. He didn't show it though, not before the "boss" at least.

Jones ignores Mythrel. "Henry Jones Jr.; though I prefer to go by Jones. Paleontologist, gemologist, and something of a student of the occult." He offers his hand. He'd dealt with eccentric professors and students before.

Barnaby runs around the table, shaking hands in turn when offered. So many greetings!

"Thank you! Quite! Warm welcomes all! As I said earlier, my name is Colonel Barnaby. My trade is hands-on Zoology; you won't find a wiser mind on the knowledge of pokemon... at least to Violet city where I hear the great Professor Elm is staying. But besides him, my knowledge is second best in the area!"

The Colonel eventually sits down at an end of the table and begins chomping down on some bacon, putting the occasional slice in one of his pockets. "So lay the details; my joining here was because of rumors of miraculous pokemon within these ruins. Are these secrets exact, or exaggeration?"

Jones grins and flicks a hand. Inferno is released, the flaming Haunter eying the strange newcomer with interest. "That answer your question?" Trainer and mon seem to be sporting matching mischievous grins.

Stefan says nothing this time, merely nodding his acknowledgment and slipping the bill into his wallet. After the colonel shakes his hand, he leans over and takes a share of the bills remaining on the table, quietly pocketing a quarter of it. No sense just leaving it there, after all, not with such tempers likely to ignite again.

Barnaby's mouth drops, and so does half the bacon he was stuffing for later.

"OH GOLLY WHAT A MAGNIFICENT SPECIMEN! So many questions! Are the flames a genetic feature or forced adaptation? Is it's primary typing still ghost or shifted to pure flame spirit? Does it still siphon the same nutrient energy to survive or does it need heat? Heck, does it need heat as environmental factor or is it preferenced to the same spooky environments they normally spawn in? Or perhaps its the ghost of a fire pokemon manifested into an unusual form. And the fire manipulation! Is it drawn force, spawned heat? Perhaps...

The colonel moves to circle the odd Flame Haunter, observing it through magnifying glasses and various pokedex-like devices. It is safe to say he is quite impressed, for better or worse.

Inei grabs his share too, now that Stefan opened the hunting season upon the paper currency.

...

"So is this how the excavation team's funding is distributed? Seems rather... archaic."

Barnaby attempts to sneak 1,000 into his pocket with the bacon. That could buy a ball or two!

"Not normally, no. We generally got paid upon recovery of the artifacts. . . But when the chef is generous, you clean your plate."

He leans back in his chair to address Inei.

"As soon as the briefing is done. I can work it into their routine."

He was getting sidetracked. He pointedly turns his attention back to Mythrel.
