Ah . . . honestly. I'm ashamed you're this far ahead of me in your pursuit of your goals. I could stand to learn from you, Ingo.

[He stands there with his hand on the statue, staring at it blankly, thinking about this and that. After a minute he lets it slide away to fall at his side, turns, and heads back up to the Gear Station.

It's time to check out the Anville Line.]

[Saturn isn't very familiar with Unova, and he has no idea what this place is. But it seems incongruous with the ones he knows the names of already, like Sphinx and Pearl and Galaxy, so he's curious, and he steps into the car with Bronzong at his side.]

[Ah, corporate/cult nostalgia. He goes to read the quotes, from the front of the car to the back.]

[He reads all of these in turn. Most he reads with a private little smile, imagining them all in Ingo's voice, because most if not all of them seem to have come directly from him. Number five Saturn raises an eyebrow at in even more private amusement, the facial equivalent of a "nice" when you see the number 69.

Number three, though, he lingers on the first time, and then once he's read all of them, he goes back to that one, reading it over and over, eventually mouthing it silently to himself, followed by a silent "What?" Then he stands on a seat to touch that one, just in case he can get literally any clarity at all on this motivational quip.]

[hgfhj. He does this a few times, shoulders shaking helplessly. Bronzong, bobbing at his side, watches him inscrutably.

But if that's all that's in this car . . . ]
