    Summary

    Remi's entire life definitely did not go up in flames a few weeks ago. She quit her job and left the only place she'd ever known because she was interested in the recent increases to the wild Pokémon population in Lumiose. That was the only reason. Nothing else.

    And she only joined Team MZ because she needed cheap accommodations. Now that she knows there's a threat looming over the city, of course she'll do whatever she has to do to protect the people and Pokémon here. But her reasons for joining Team MZ had nothing to do with the way Urbain stood between her and danger, or how Naveen carefully chose and embroidered a bag with Team MZ's logo so that it wouldn't get in her way when she ran across the city. She doesn't even notice how Lida always seems happy to see her, even when she's...prickly.

    It really isn't that complicated.

    Update: For the foreseeable future, I'll be posting Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Let me know if I'm missing any tags.

    Edit: This is going to be a lot longer than I first expected. I'm writing ahead of where I'm posting and Zygarde doesn't show till we hit 100k and Corbeau's not until like 280k

    Sunk Cost Fallacy by

    Summary

    It turns out that being wired into giant war machines doesn’t play nice with human brains. The Earth Mechanical Defense Force, or EMDF, learned that the hard way when their pilots started going… neurotic, let’s say, after a few missions.

    The obvious solution to that problem was to simply wire the pilot into their mecha permanently, that way their mind wasn’t being strained by the constant in and out. Unfortunately that strategy backfired and the pilots started going neurotic much, much faster, and this time they were giant and made of metal and much harder to put down.

    So, the obvious next step would be to pull the plug on that idea and go back to the drawing board, right? No, that’s ridiculous, the next step was obviously to simply…

    Make the mecha forget they’d ever been human in the first place.

    Somewhere along the line someone should have pulled the plug, but they’d already invested so much into the project, and you know what they say about sunk cost fallacy.
