_{[... What? Heather? In the Pokemon Center? Again? SURELY YOU JEST. She didn't get her ass kicked by a crazy robber again or anything, did she?]

[For anyone around the Goldenrod Pokemon Center, it looks like Heather's waiting around in the lobby, off in one of the pink, cushiony seats in the corner, trying to look as unobtrusive as possible. Her Totodile is wallowing around beside her on another seat, teething on one of those Pokemon fashion magazines they always seem to have in bulk. And by 'teething', I mostly just mean eating.]

[Heather doesn't look too interested in keeping him out of trouble, though.]

[This would probably have to do with the fact that both of her hands are heavily bandaged and laid in her lap with painstaking gingerness. She's had much worse, but... still hurt. And she was tired. And despite all outward appearances, the knowledge she'd gained on Sunday night wasn't hurting her any less.]

[But yes... ever the mother hen, Phoenix finally bullied her into going in to get those pulverized hands looked at. Not like she wasn't gonna anyway, but... well. She couldn't exactly go back to work without getting them checked out, could she? So she's waiting on an opening-- the Center's pretty busy what with the stocking of emergency snowstorm supplies and all-- not to mention countless natives rushing to get checkups for their Pokemon before the weather turned wicked.]}

_{[What do you do when you've been sort of scarce for the past few days, and you're stuck with nothing to do? ... GO ON THE NETWORK, of course!]

[The feed fizzles on, showing off a tired, tiiiired Heather. Her eyes look even puffier than normal-- they're red-rimmed. Almost looks like she's been crying, but THAT'S JUST SILLY. She's obviously just really, really tired, am I right, folks?]

[Still, she offers her usual crooked grin to the camera, and it looks no less genuine than normal.]}

'Sup, Johto.

So uh... considering I work in the department store here, I've pretty much got access to all kinds of stuff that isn't sold much in other stores. So, in the spirit of the season... what do you guys want for Christmas? _{[She's addressing her friends, of course-- anyone else who tries to get anything out of her might well succeed... though it might not be what they want.]} No guarantees or anything, but I oughta get my shopping out of the way before the place fills up with crazy shoppers and blows sky-high.

Also, uh... weather's lookin' pretty bad, so... all you dudes who were planning on traveling, either hurry up or stay put.

I'm pretty sure none of us want this to wind up being Flood 2: The Freezing or some crap.

So none of you go and get dumb ideas about getting lost in the wilderness in this, okay? _{[SHE'S LOOKIN' AT YOU, TRAVELING PARTIES. Literally-- she lifts a bandaged hand and does that 'I see what you did there' motion, pointing to her eyes and then to the camera-- ... and then she remembers that whoops, her hands are bandaged like a wolverine attacked them and maybe it's not the best idea to flash them in front of the screen in front of a bunch of people who she just KNOWS will freak-- o-okay she'll just put it back down and carry on like there's nothing out of the ordinary. SO SHE DOES.]}

Also, anyone with Totodiles out there, I need tips.

'Zilla's started gnawing the bedstand in my room and I need him to stop-- but I don't think using a spraybottle on him is gonna work, 'cause... yeeeeaaah.

Advice?

... I guess it was just a carryover. Your older self used to be here-- I talked to him once or twice. _{[She smiles apologetically, reaching over to give his hair a friendly half-ruffle.]} Sorry, Miles.

_{[ooc: Yeah, I really like it. Some of her alternate costumes are pretty interesting too-- what I like most is that she looks and dresses like a normal, slightly-punky teen girl and that's not often the case with female protagonists in video games. Also, chest flat as an ironboard. XD]}

..He was, huh. [This might be the first person he's met, who knows his older self from somewhere other than back home.] ....What kind of person was he?

[ooc; because big boobs are totally overrated when you're fighting zombies. Either way-- I think she just looks great! ;A; ]

_{[T-TO BE FAIR, Heather didn't talk to him MUCH... there had only been a few occasions. But... still.]}

Actually, he was... the first person who ever talked to me here, come to think of it... the very first.

We didn't talk MUCH, or anything... Truth be told, he was a little stuffy and pretentious. So I teased him a lot. _{[SORT OF LIKE SHE TEASED HIM NOW.]

[ooc: seeeeriously, also have you seen the number of people who draw Heather with gigantic bazongas? what game did they even play.]}

[Y-YEAH BUT STILL. CURIOSITY.]

---Pretentious. [He's heard sour-faced, stuffy, and tea obsessed. But... pretentious. :| ]

[ooc; I have not, actually, and I'd rather keep it that way. 8| b ]
