<blockquote class="quoteContainer"><div class="quote">The Devon Corp engineer's eyes widened beneath his glaces and a bead of sweat popped onto his forehead as Naomi leaned forward in the helicopter. "Well, I uhm. Hm."<br/>
<br/>
Somnificent gave him the knowing wink and approval. The Devon Corp man could only stare blankly at the psychic Pokemon as they had their shared moment. He was, after all, a man of science! Conferring with a squat Pokemon about womanly qualities was a field he had not yet studied in!<br/>
<br/>
"Oh, yes, uhm, let me help you with that." He hopped up into the helicopter, navigating past the girl in the relatively close quarters as best he could.  "Here we are. Just this up like that." He opened the compartment and set the new PHS in front of Naomi. "Just your credentials there... To be honest, I wasn't really looking forward to doing environmental tests on these anyway." He chuckled. "You're probably doing me a favor!"<br/>
<br/>
"I'll help you down." He offered as he hopped down onto the grass once again, giving the Drowzee a sideways glance.<br/>
<br/>
"Let me just... log this in..." He pulled the portable PC up link from his coat. It blinked on and for a moment it worked perfectly as it connected to the network. But after a moment the screen began fade into static.<br/>
<br/>
He frowned and sighed. "Darn... thing." He gave it a shake.<br/>
<br/>
"We set the network up weeks ago." He sighed. "There's a few more towers still going up to improve reception... But sometimes it just cuts out. Damnedest thing too. Headquarters is calling intermittent electro-magnetic interference." The screen skewed and artifacts displayed, and then a blinking error appeared. "We never had this problem on the mainland."<br/>
<br/>
The up link went black then connected successfully. "There we go. If you're going out there, be careful. The blackouts are unpredictable, and you could be caught without communication. I guess one other word of warning, the ranger's, uh, range, is pretty limited at the moment around the routes. It would probably be a better idea to send Devon Corp a message if you need help than the rangers. Who knows, might even be able to send the helicopter here!"<br/>
<br/>
He pushed his askew glasses up his nose. "Anyway... the specs for the PHS - er, that's what we're calling it right now. Portable Healing Station - the specs should be with it in case you run into trouble with it. So uhm... yeah." He ended, awkwardly unsure of how he should continue the conversation, or if he even should.</div><div class="quoteExpand quoteCut">Click to expand...</div></blockquote>

</div>Naomi nodded as he mentioned the difficulty communicating. She tilted her head and commented,<span style="color: #6495ED">"It's not likely that the interference will clear up any time soon. Yugen is still very wild, and there are pokemon out there far more powerful than the common sorts found on the mainland. A few of them are electric types, and they don't follow regulations on limiting RF interference."</span>Her last comment was delivered a little wryly.<br/><br/>She lifted the new PHS out of its bin and carefully lowered it to the ground outside the helicoptor by its straps, having to crouch in the process. This time her exposure was entirely accidental, with her attention on making sure the machine didn't crash to the ground. Then she sat on the edge and held her arms out, inviting the man to help her down. Not that she really needed the help, of course.<br/><br/><span style="color: #6495ED">"I'll keep that in mind, about the helicoptor and making calls; I could always rig up a simple parabolic aluminum reflector out of a can, for the antenna."</span>She smiled mischevously at him.<span style="color: #6495ED">"I'm sure the helicoptor is very comfortable for a couple people to lounge around in. Though we should probably be getting back to set up these two devices. The new one to assure that it works, and the one that's already been in use. Get that mob of unruly... I mean, get those valued Devon Corp customers taken care of."</span><br/><br/>Meanwhile, Somnificent was observing the two of them, and decided to give the man a little nudge. He deftly and subtly placed a daydream image into the man's mind, of Naomi naked and bent over the deck of the helicoptor, looking back with a blush. And when she sat on the deck, her legs swinging freely, he went a little further and 'helped' the man imagine her naked with that inviting pose. He loved being mischevous this way!<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
