Blitzo | Helluva Boss

[hellaquin]

A: Network
Okay, what the fuck is going on here? Seriously, why does the crazy shit always happen to me?

[A man who looks somewhere between "Hot Topic adult" and "Greaser reject," with burn scars on one side of his face, pinches the bridge of his nose. It's probably easy to guess he's new, with how frazzled he is.]

I have plenty of questions, but let's start with the big one. [He drags his hand down his face and shouts.] Why do I fucking look like this? I'm not a human! Kind of messes with my whole business model if I'm suddenly part of the living world!

B: Route 29
[Blitzo is still unhappy about being here, being human, and being apart from everyone at I.M.P., but he's discovered that not everything about this situation is bad. Once he figured out how to open a Pokeball, (it took longer than you'd expect), he was able to meet his starter. A Ponyta. That's right, nothing to take the sting out of being torn from everything and everyone you know like a horse that's on fire. That's awesome. Blitzo has wasted no time getting attached. ...Shut up. He's not coping, you're coping!]

Let's see... Trash, trash, I don't know what that is... Oh, and a map! Okay.

[He's sitting on a stump with Ponyta at his side, trying to focus on what's in the backpack he was given, instead of on the cold.]

Well, that bitch calling herself my mom was sure a fun fucking time, but at least she got us set up a little, huh, Hellhorse?

[He pats Ponyta on the side of the neck as he squints at the map for a while.]

Uhhh, what am I even looking at, though? I don't know where I even started from... Hmm... You know what, fuck it. We'll wing it!

C: Spill The (Drow)Zee
[He's made it to a town, but there's way too many of the freaky-looking Mr. Mime around for his liking. The Drowzee are plentiful too, but those don't bother him as much. Fortunately, or maybe not, it's one of the Drowzee that approaches Blitzo. It gives him a scribbled note, then points to someone across the street.

That's right, one of your psychically-gleaned secrets has ended up with him, thanks to the psychic Pokemon. What does it say?]

Spill The (Drow)Zee

[gimmeeyeballs]

[ It looks like the Drowzee was having a time of things with this one, poor thing had the misfortune of Catrina's brain to glean and it's not the best place to physically view. Upon opening, it's rather nice looking handwriting, that's a plus: ]

Catrina is an accessory to a jewelry heist and hid over 10k worth of jewelry somewhere. Catrina owns an absolutely disgusting old plush toy called 'Plague Bird' and looks like it's a host of diseases. She also once summoned a demon by accident and hideously awful things happened from there. Please quarantine her.

[ Damn...that's a dumpster fire right there...Oh dear the one Drowzee pointed out looks like someone that dumpster dived at a Spirit of Halloween and grabbed the first thing she found to wear. ]

[hellaquin]

[It takes Blitzo a minute to read the note, because he has to slowly sound it out, out loud. Words aren't his strong suit, what do you want from him? When he finishes reading, or more accurately, when he gives up on struggling through figuring out how to read 'quarantine,' he doesn't seem to share the Drowzee's concern. He looks over at Catrina with a wide grin.]

Hey! Tacky outfit chick!

[Says the guy wearing a leather jacket with spikes on the shoulders? Sure, Blitzo... He hustles over and shoves the note at her.]

Is this true? Specifically the part about summoning a demon by accident, although believe me, I'm also very interested to hear about the thousands' worth of stolen goods.
