044. [Video/Action for Goldenrod]

_{[Like so many transmissions today, this one opens up with the camera aimed straight up at the velvety-gray sky, with dry little flakes of snow drifting down. It also cuts in about halfway through a sentence--]}

--ime to get some winter gear... Hey, network. Please enjoy five minutes of my dog being a spaz.

_{[It swivels down to focus on the plaza-- looks like Heather's walking back to the hotel from work and is finally getting a chance to enjoy the flurries (though she's c-c-c-cold. The whole sleeveless routine won't work for too much longer...). The flagstones are dusted with snow, and-- ... as promised, Cujo is being a spaz.]}

[The orange-colored pup is lying on his side in the snow and just sort of... wriggling in place, snorfling around in the MAGICAL WHITE STUFF THAT IS FALLING FROM THE SKY. After a few seconds or two he suddenly surges upright, butt in the air and ears standing straight up. He stares, glassy-eyed, at the camera for a few seconds, and then lets out an explosive snort and goes tearing off in a random direction.]

['Zilla the toddler Totodile appears on the screen then, slipping and sliding after him through the snow at a laughably slower pace-- changing direction a few times as Cujo goes rocketing past in the opposite direction. Eventually he gives up and comes waddling back to Heather with a frustrated gargle. She laughs.]

Maybe when you get longer legs, buddy-- hey, let's see how Arty likes the snow. Ya like the snow, Arty?

_{[The camera turns and shows... well, this.]}

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.....

.... I think she likes it.

[And guess who is NOT SETTING ONE FOOT OUTSIDE EVER. Damn cold. Damn snow. Phoenix is just going to sit here curled up on his bed, thank you very much. ~~Thus, someone obviously needs to drag him outside.~~]

Looks like someone's enjoying themselves. [Phoenix's own Furret gives the camera a sympathetic look. Poor, poor Arty.]

[Hey Heather look who's also on his way back from work, Pess jollily frolicking down the street, and a tiny bundle of blanket held carefully, as not to let whatever's inside it get cold. His (rather solemn) face lightens up when he sees Heather, and he trots up to her.]

Miss Heather...! [He would wave, but, yeah bundle in his arms.]

She is quivering with enthusiasm. Or rage. It's hard to tell with her.

_{[The camera turns around to show Heather's face-- she's still in her work outfit, which is admittedly a little bit warmer than her usual one. She's gonna need to start investing in winter clothing soon.]

[She raises a brow at him.]}

SO. Have YOU been in the snow yet?

Hey, Edgeworth.

Whatcha got there?

_{[Pess .... will have to move quickly or she will be almost instantly BOWLED OVER by Cujo, who is just kind of zooming around like a juggernaut.]}

You might want to stay away from her for a while... [He knows Furrets. They can be pretty vicious when they set their minds to it.

Anyway--at Heather's question, he just. Raises an eyebrow.] No. I guess I'll have to go out sometime, but... [He huddles into his blankets. The two sweaters he boguht way back in Cherrygrove haven't been holding up too well with all the action they've been getting.]

[ Snake's outside the hotel, leaning against the wall, smoking a cigarette. He can see the spastic growlithe zipping off in random directions and he grunts in amusement. He's sporting the jacket he bought back in Azalea, it's pretty good for the cold right now... but his joints ache so much. Still, watching Pokemon be morons is a nice distraction. Taking out a Pokeball from his belt, he tosses it before him, Sunny being released. She chirps excitedly before hopping in the snow, not understanding what it was but loving it all the same. ]

_{[Heather's coming down the street a short distance behind Cujo-- she's too tired to run after him, even though she is cold. When she spots Snake, she grins and waves at him.]}

Yo!

_{[At the sound of the Pokeball opening, Cujo skids to a halt and looks over his shoulder. .... :D SUNNNYYYYYYY~]

[He comes galloping back over to say hi to his ol' playmate.]}

Oh, don't worry. I'm not gonna touch her if I can help it. _{[She's suffered her fair share of scratches from that terror crammed into a tubular weasel body.]

[When he huddles up in his blankets, Heather SNORTS.]}

Do you have ANY inner child at all?

[You probably won't see this happy smile on his face after a few days, Heather, but let him show you the EXTREMELY TINY Growlithe that's snoozing in his nest of blankets.]

This is Pip, Miss Heather. I took him with me so Nurse Joy can make sure he's healthy.

[Aaand Pess, with a look that says something like, "HOLY MOTHER OF GOD WHAT IS THAT" jumps out of the way as Cujo rockets past.]

[there is a tropical island kid standing nearby, all bundled up because what is retaining body heat, staring up at the sky and going WHAT THE CRAP IS THIS? at the snow. Puddles is galloping around like a reindeer on reindeer nip and will pause momentarily to snuffle at Heather's hair once he's close enough.]

_{[Heather can't see from across the street, so she hurries over, puffing, and leans in to take a look.]}

.... Oh .... _{[You know, Heather doesn't even like dogs, but... that is one cute little mofo.]}

He's ADORABLE!

_{[Cujo just sort of... juggernauts past her and then comes back around again, only to skid to a halt and go into a play-bow, tongue lolling out. :D Play? :D Play? :D PLAY?]}

[Kaito is all bundled up too! And grinning like a madman]

Y'know what makes snow storms even more fun?

[Hey Heather, guess what.]

[There's a worried nerd running over covered in snow--he's fallen down a couple times--and trying to keep himself from freaking out.]

H-Heather--! I have to t-talk to you...

He's really warm, too. [You can't say no to a puppy like this, Heather, phobia of dogs even. Edgeworth looks pretty damn happy as he holds the puppy, as well.

And Pess just. Gives Cujo this look because she's a pompous dog. 8| ....But what the hell it's SNOWING. And so she barks an affirmative and starts running in circles around the other dog.]

Er...good luck with that. [He's eying Arty warily. It sure looks...homicidal.

And here, Heather, have a headpan stare.]

Sorry, he's on vacation. [He's told this to Maya HOW many times now? With other various parts of his subconscience, too. Like his sense of adventure.]

[ Stares at the dog coming at him. Oh god oh god-- Oh it's going for Sunny. The Togetic trills excitedly and flutters over to her friend. Then comes a realization from Snake. ]

Huh. They know each other.

[OH GOD THAT FACE] ... are you certain your Pokemon likes this weather?

Clearly different definitions of like.

_{[Don't feel TOO complacent, Snake. YOUR TIME WILL COME. Cujo is EVERYBODY'S best friend.]

[For the moment, though, he just skids up to Sunny, snorfling all over her and jumping around like a kindergartener hyped up on birthday cake.]}

Huh... looks like they do!

_{[Heather reaches them, her breath visible in puffs. She's got the Totodile under one arm and somewhere behind her, Arty is dragging herself through the snow, looking like the entire world was her enemy.]}

_{[OH LOOK THERE'S SORA! He must be feeling better-- or. Well. Have healed some, anyway. ... Heather's just glad that TANK NURSE isn't with him. Her visits over the past week or so had probably been sneaky because she didn't want to run into HIM.]}

Hey, kiddo! What's the matter, never seen snow before? _{[She fends Puddle off with a laugh-- meanwhile, Cujo greets the frolicking giraffe with a frenzy of excited barking and turning in circles.]}

_{[She grins right back at him-- the wtf of that surreal three-days-gone thing seems to have passed and she's bounced back to her normal self.]}

What's that?

_{[Heather pauses and looks over her shoulder. At first she's smiling, but once she notices how distressed the nerd looks, she shuts the video feed off. Of course, he could just be freaking out over nothing or something stupid (she's seen it happen), but... just in case.]}

Uh-- okay. What's up?

_{[THIS IS THE FACE OF A KILLER VERY HAPPY CREATURE.]}

Positive. That's just how she expresses her joy.

What are you talking about?

CLEARLY, she is emanating pure pleasure.

I-I...

[Deep breath.]

...it's Liquid. His father's here.
