033. [Video] (action for Camp Otacon)

[foolishwren]

_{[When the camera comes on, Heather's lying on her back on her sleeping bag with Cujo draped over her stomach and a sulky expression on her face. The bandage formerly tied over her eye (looking distinctly nasty now) is crumpled off to the side and in its place is a hot compress, which she's holding gently to the wounded area with one hand. She seems to be holding the PokeGear up above her with the other. Least flattering Myspace-shot ever.]}

So-- how long do I have to keep this thing on?

_{[She's talking to somebody off-camera and judging by the ever-so-patient tone of the reply she gets, which is sort of indistinct but along the lines of 'Until I say you can take it off', that somebody is Otacon.]}

But Haaaaaal.

_{[There is no reply.]}

..... Fine, fine...

I'll just stay here and stew in my misery.

_{[There's a laugh from off the screen and another indistinct reply that is apparently amused at Heather's overdramatic whining and not sympathetic like she'd been hoping. So Heather makes a pouty face and turns her head just slightly so that she can stick her tongue out in his general direction before looking back to the camera.]}


His Dictatorship over there is reveling in his regime of oppression and I'm bored.

Someone please distract me.

_{[SHE'D EVEN WELCOME KNOCK-KNOCK JOKES. THAT IS HOW LOW SHE HAS SUNK.]}

[She recognizes that voice from the other day.]

M-Miss Heather?

Wh-What happened to your eye? Are you okay?

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

Maybe you should elope with Liquid. That'd show him.

[ someone is not still on her feet and most unhappy about it. ]

[video]

[foolishwren]

I could try that, I guess.

But... do they make dresses in his size?

_{[And Liquid would MURDER THE HELL OUT OF HER if he'd been in hearing range to hear her say that, whether she was injured or not.]}

[Sora here is trying not to look shocked, considering the last time they spoke he didn't actually see her face-- can Heather tell he's doing an awful job of it?]

Uh... I could tell you some jokes?

[video]

[foolishwren]

_{[Yeeeeah, admittedly she doesn't look anywhere near as terrible as she did on the day she staggered out of the woods like some kind of horrible swamp monster, but the whole 'I got run over by a bear' look sadly wasn't about to go away in just a few days.]}

By this point, it could be the lamest joke ever and it'd still be better than lying here. Go for it!

[Is Shelly the only one not fazed by Heather's wounds at all? Possibly!]

Bored, Ms. Mason?

[voice]

[foolishwren]

_{[She's sort of grateful for that, actually!]}

YES.

Intensely.

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Eeeesh! You look like you went through a meat grinder.

[video]

[foolishwren]

It's not as bad as it looks... but ... uh, yeah, basically.

_{[She doesn't even remember the specific occurrences behind any of her wounds, but maybe that's a good thing.]}

[they may potentially be on the same wavelength, because--]

Knock knock!

[video]

[foolishwren]

_{[THIS HAD BETTER BE GOOD, KAITO.]}

Who's there?

[video]

[puzzling]

Miss Mason, is your eye any better than the last time we spoke?

[Cause with that bandage off, it has to be...right? Well, either way, it should be healing by now unless she has some crazy "I'm not letting you heal cause I'm a douche" germ...]

Ah, and if you would like some distractions, I have some new puzzles thought of. Perhaps that will do.

[video]

[foolishwren]

_{[Nah, the bandage was pretty much just off so that she could put that compress on it-- but that said, it is healing! These things just took time.]}

Eh, a little bit. Still hurts like a bitch.

_{[YEAH SHE JUST CUSSED IN FRONT OF THE PROFESSAH, WHAT.]}

... I think I can handle some puzzles.

_{[She'd missed them while she was alone in the woods, man.]}

[He recognizes her from the last time he talked to her and the wanted stuff. Now Kisame is curious!

...and temporarily distracted by the undersized Quagsire trying to crawl into his lap]

Nuru--

[Sigh. And to Heather]

You look like you had a knock-down drag-out fight. At least you're being smart about it, eh?

[video]

[foolishwren]

_{[She recognizes him vaguely too, it's hard to forget a face like that. And the sight of the Quagsire makes her smile a little.]}

That's... more or less what happened, pretty much.

_{[It had been a sort of... prolonged knock-down drag-out fight that had occurred over the course of two days, had several participants, and went down in locations throughout Violet City.]}

But it's cool, I totally have this warm... wash cloth thing. It makes everything better.

_{[... This part was said loudly and sarcastically, and was clearly directed at the offscreen guy who was making her lie there and keep it on.]}

[video]

[usednastyplot.livejournal.com]

Very flattering.

[video]

[foolishwren]

Thanks.

I think it brings out my eyes.

_{[She says this very dryly.]}

[philanthrotaku.livejournal.com]

You know I just worry about you, Heather. You should take better care of yourself.

[foolishwren]

_{[And Heather's just over here giving him the most pitiful look ever.]}

But I have been!

I just don't know why I have to lie here and do nothing the whole time I have this on my face!

[Answer: yes she does, but she's also just annoying and whiny.]</sub>

[...considering that her whooping his ass is part of the reason why she's under lockdown, Phoenix feels a bit obligated to try and cheer her up.]

I don't have many jokes, but... [A pause]

Why am I such a good lawyer?

[video]

[foolishwren]

_{[She raises a brow, but... okay, she'll bite.]}

I dunno.

Why?

[ voice ]

[imthe-shit.livejournal.com]

Hey, kid.

[ voice ]

[foolishwren]

H--

_{[... Brief check to make sure Liquid's not nearby.]}

Hey!

How ya doing?


.... Your friend is an oppressive tyrant.

_{[OTACON: SO EVIL.]}

LATE TAG IS LATE, AUGH

[foolishwren]

Hey, Robin.

Sure, go for it.
