[There was a bit of radio silence on Heather's part for awhile there... but here comes a video post! Because... yeah, uh. Probably a good idea to show everybody she's not DEAD.]
[The girl on the screen looks exhausted. The baggy shadows under her eyes never really seem to go away entirely, but they'd at least gone tame for awhile. Now they're back full force. It seems excessive, maybe, getting so broken-up for days over losing one person, even if that person was her best friend. ... But as she'd found out, he hadn't been the only one she'd lost that day. And she's not totally sure how she feels about it. ... About them both. Just that she's tired.BUT AT LEAST SHE'S NOT PUNCHING ANYTHING, RIGHT?]
[She seems to be leaning on (or... INTO. It's very... voluminous) a sort of... soft white MASS of some sort-- whose identity is revealed when a sharp hooked beak (that is... mostly obscured by fluffy white down) descends into the frame and starts to groom Heather's rat's-nest hair with a quiet twitter. Sunny makes the best pillow.]
[Heather doesn't waste any time before cutting right to the chase, speaking with a bored drawl (that's partially to justify how croaky her voice is-- SCREW EVERYTHING she's a bored teenager she doesn't need to sound nice!).]
Right, so.
Gonna beat Morty soon and then get outta this town. Nothin' left to do here, really.
So, uh.
We can either head over to Cianwood and see about getting Fly. ... Not that I have anything big enough to fly on, but. Y'know. For the heck of it.
OR we could head over to Mahogany. Which is... well, closer I guess.
So... I dunno. Thoughts? Anyone? Bueller?

[Says the man already on the road! There's been a disappearance on his end as well, so he's not quite his usual cheery self, but he does breathe in the air to .. make a point. Or because that's just who he is.]
There's nothing quite like the recuperative powers of an open road. My personal suggestion? Cianwood.
[Aren't you glad he's not asking you what happened or telling you you look like crap? c:]
[video]
[She grins tiredly.]
Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinkin'.
I've been here since September.
Could use a change, y'know?
Plus, Cianwood's got a badge I don't have...
[video]
[What makes it a good time, he doesn't specify, and lets that linger for a second before he shoots her a small smile.]
Let me know what the beaches are like.
[video]
Sure will.
... Where're you headed?
Going to Mahogany?
[video]
[Even if he'd (somewhat guiltily) enjoyed being a cop again and having a bit of a case, it hadn't exactly made for casual strolling in the new city afterwards.]
[video]
Man, I'm starting to think I should head back there, myself... s'like there's a party going on there twenty-four-seven.
[But she won't. That urge to be alone is still a little... pressing.]
[video]
[He quotes it easily. He never did like that particular madness, but he can appreciate it for what it's worth - especially in Johto where this madness isn't synonymous with criminal activities.]
[video]
[And then, grinning a little...]
Gonna hit up the arcade?
[... She doesn't know about his thing with casinos, she's mostly just thinking he'd look really funny trying to play DDR.]
[video]
Maybe I should.
[For the record, he'd totally be absolutely killer at DDR. But his mind is drifting to the sweetness of -- card games. Blackjack. Now that's a challenge he'll never turn down.]
But only after I try my hand at some proper card games.
[video]
I know they have some kinda flipping card game with Voltorbs ...
[She hadn't ventured over into that part of the Game Corner much. She'd stuck mainly with the arcade.]
[video]
It's all about looking for the right places, Heather. And as you may recall that's part of my job.
[He's gon hit some card games when he gets there and no one can stop him, okay.]
[video]
Heh. I'm sure you'll be able to find something.
You like gambling, huh?
[video]
[This is the part where he doesn't tell her he's actually banned from a few casinos and has counted cards since he was fifteen.]
I enjoy the challenge.
[video]
Once I wanted to learn poker but Dad was like... NOPE.
[video]
[He tilts his head at that though, curious.]
A shame, but I'm sure he had good reasons. Still, it can be a very enjoyable game.
[video]
... Given how I used to act back in high school, it was probably a good idea to put his foot down on that matter, honestly.
[video]
[video]
[c: Yes. Yes she was.]
[video]
I thought so.
[video]
[video]
The way I remember it those first two attributes were a more recent development.
[video]
You WERE pretty nosy.
[She says it with a broad grin and fondness in her tone, though. He hadn't been THAT nosy and she knows it.]
Besides, it's an unwritten law. Unwashed teenage punks like me gotta give people a hard time. Otherwise the universe goes outta balance or something.
[video]
[ONLY KIND OF but he can play along, tilting his head slightly and smiling at her with eyebrows raised.]
[video]
Man, between you and me, the world's balance is pretty much safe and sound, huh? We make a pretty good team!
