034. [Video]
[It's a little before sun-up-- that weird hour of the morning where the sky is still dark but just starting to brighten in a thin, pale line at the horizon. Of course, where Heather was, that horizon was hidden by the trees, so it's... still mostly dark.]
[She's sitting up in her sleeping bag with a couple of blankets around her shoulders, next to the camp's fire, which had mostly burnt down to ash speckled with a few tiny, stubborn embers. They stood out against the general grayness of the clearing 'Camp Otacon' resided in. Said grayness was only emphasized by the layers of frost coating the earth and grass. It was well into October now, so... unsurprisingly, the weather had been getting colder.]
[Heather was not sure she liked this, though thankfully she's in possession of a living heater in the form of a now-distinctly-potbellied dog (Camp Otacon had been treating him well. Especially because though she'd never admit to being such a softie, she'd been giving him more treats than normal out of pure guilt over the whole 'I thought you were a double-head and also I was kind of a jerk to you in general anyway' thing), who was curled behind her and serving as a backrest.]
So hey, guys. I have a question.
[Her words were accompanied by puffs of steam from her breath. It's c-c-cold this morning without the sunlight.]
What happens when our warrants expire?
[A couple of people had asked her this before, but she'd never had too specific an answer to give them.]
I heard we're like... basically off with a smack on the wrist and not much else, but... [She pauses, sucking her lips inward a little and fiddling with that stubborn eye-bandage. She's gotta be able to get rid of that thing soon, right?] ... That seems pretty lenient for a bunch of "dangerous fugitives". [She's quoting Officer Jenny directly from that announcement, and there's suspicion in her tone. SCREW THE COPS, THEY'RE NEVER HONEST, RIGHT? THIS HAS TO BE A TRICK.]

I remember getting in HUGE trouble back home just for like... stealing a lighter from a store. And I was like, fifteen.
But suddenly I ASSAULT people and all I have to do is hide for two weeks and it's all better?
... I mean, granted, it isn't like this has been all flowers and sunshine, but...

[She'd apparently wreaked some royal havoc, and was still sort of surprised she hadn't been caught while she was still tripping out on whatever those ghosts were doing.]
[voice]
[voice]
[And... honestly not all that effective, either. All surprise at the weirdness of Johto's law system aside, Heather's never been particularly benefited from the law. It wasn't entirely their fault, though. The cult had a way of making their wrongdoings just invisible enough to go by undiscovered and unpunished. But the bitterness still remained, a little.]
[The blame was quick to fall to the victims.]
[voice]
[Boy, Heather, let me tell you about that one time a bunch of forensic scientists (and also EVERYONE ELSE) in AA-land failed to note the fact that a man with a broken neck couldn't have written his killer's name on the sand...]
[voice]
[This... would make Heather facepalm. But it would not surprise her.]
