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.]}

_{[The skeleton tilts his head. That was the Heather he'd come to know. It was nice to have somebody to pick at.]}

Maybe, but you're not a war criminal are you?

_{[He buffed his nails on his jacket and dared to look BORED of Heather's story. It was hard not to grin. He was a smiley person.]}

The entire army could never catch up with me.

_{[The entire army? Really, Jack? And yes, they did. They shot your ass down and then you sang a song about HOW BAD YOU SUCK.]}

_{[She's bouncing back, after all!]}

Oh really?

_{[... Didn't they SHOOT him?]}

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Yes, really.

_{[Oh, if only he'd known about the internet. He'd force Doc on the screen and YA RLY at her. But he didn't. The skeleton just smirked at her and waited for disbelief and awe to wash over her face. Only not really.]}

[foolishwren]

_{[SHE'S SEEN THE MOVIE OKAY, SHE KNOWS YOU'RE LYING. But she also has the decency not to say so.]}

Riiiiiight.

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Hmf. Well, don't say I didn't warn you!

_{[For the time being, all Jack had were a couple of turkeys and a wussy little balloon. The battle would be laughable at best.]}

I am glad you're managing to stay in good spirits!

[video]

[foolishwren]

_{[As of right now, Heather had only her derpdog, but to be fair, he was pretty damn strong by now. And this time, she knew it.]}

Eh, I'm keeping myself amused. .... At least not when I'm being forced to LIE HERE BY MY BESPECTACLED OVERLORD.

_{[YES OTACON SHE MEANS YOU.]}

[video]

[quickattackjack]

_{[That gets a laugh out of Jack.]}

Poor thing. If you need entertainment, the next time I'm at work, I'll try and contact you. I built a slingshot in the trees behind the Poke'Mart and use it to train Edgar.

[video]

[foolishwren]

Yeah, that'd be nice... I can't exactly go anywhere, wanted criminal that I a-- you built a slingshot?

... Explain this to me immediately.

[quickattackjack]

_{[Here, Jack had begun wrapping up his video visit, but when Heather showed interest, that doofy grin returned.]}

Well I-- uh. I was on lunch break one day and found some strapping from merchandise crates and a broken Poke'ball. It's strung up between a couple of trees. I shoot food or stones out of it and Edgar chases them.

She's getting fast!

[video]

[foolishwren]

... That is the best thing ever.

_{[Jack is utterly SPIDEY!BEAMING at this point. Somebody approooves!]}

I was thinking of using it to teach younger flying-type Pokemon how to fly. Maybe it'll catch on!
