foolishwren: and every scar I have makes me who I am. (We were put here on earth to feel joy)

50. Accidental Video

[When the feed flickers on, it's first displaying a somewhat unsteady view of Heather's back. Occasionally it swivels back and forth shakily-- showing a blurry view of what looked like a lot of cracked eggshells. There were a few towels lying crumpled on the floor, as well. Her voice, muffled and slightly blotted out by the constant clicking and rattling noises resulting from the Totodile claws that are grappling to keep hold on the camera.]

--thought you weren't gonna make it before the first day've the New Year was over. Guess you like cuttin' it close to the wire, huh little guy?

[There's something small but fuzzy and ragged-looking draped over her shoulder, jostling slightly as she rubs it down with a towel.]

[It's white, mostly-- with spiky, damp hair and something indistinct sticking out of its head-- something black and sickle-like. A reaper-y blade.]


Guess it's appropriate, though.

[She sits back and the camera's view scurries forward a little bit, swiveling upwards insistently. Catching sight of it (and its carrier-- guess who) out of the corner of her eye, Heather turns with a quirked brow.]

Wh-- Zilla, put that thing down, you're gonna break it.

[She uses one hand to better support the fuzzy white thing cradled against her shoulder and makes a sort of halfhearted grab for Godzilla and the 'Gear with the other-- he dances out of reach, but she does hit a button and the Pokedex function comes online.]

ABSOL, the DISASTER POKEMON. It has the ability to predict disasters and impending danger. Its tendency to only appear before humans prior to disasters has earned it a reputation as an evil omen and often caused it to become a target, leading to the species becoming even more shy and reclusive.

... Predicting disasters, huh.

Guess I'm safe, then. Mine's already happened.

I know just what I'm gonna call you.

[Curious about the newest addition to their little motley crew, Godzilla inches forward with the camera once again, zooming in on the little creature's face. As the view gets clearer, a single red eye-- the one not obscured by a limp mop of white fur-- drifts open.]



How do you feel about 'Alessa'?





[ooc: TAGS WILL COME TOMORROW-- I just realized I'm running a fever and shit's starting to move that really shouldn't. SORRY ILU GUYS. I'll-- .. um, I'll be back later. 8(;]

[ lets that sink in.

... Lets that sink in for a good FIVE MINUTES. ]

Oh geez, Heather... you really had it rough, didn't you?

[ Rise's pretty sure she's never had paintings, but she'd rather not think about that at all. And sure, she's had plenty of people who hate her, but they'd never tried to KILL her. ]

[ after a long, pensive silence-- ]

If you ever feel like moving to Japan--

[ may be only half-kidding. Poor Heather. ]

Good.

[ and she says that emphatically, though the vehemence fades as she ponders Heather's question. ]

Not... really. I've had a few try to sneak into my room, and I've been followed before, and sure... that one teacher at school had a pin-up book of me, but he was a creep in general. [ but Rise won't speak ill of the dead beyond that, so she just shakes her head. ] I've gotten used to it, though. The really intense love letters, stuff like that.

Y-yeah, it's... better not to think about it.

[ but she smiles and nods. ]

Yeah, usually around White Day, I'd get some pretty nice handmade chocolates.

... You've got Valentines Day, right?

[action]

[identity profile] restardom.livejournal.com 2011-01-15 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Kinda. Valentines for us is like giving chocolate to guys. And on White Day, a month later, they return the favor to the girls.

It makes things a lot easier. So you guys don't have anything like that?

We don't have those. But Christmas was never really a big deal for us, either.

Whoa, they don't waste any time! I mean, sure we decorate and everything, but Christmas is usually just something you celebrate if you're a couple or with your family. But it's not crazy.

Oh, yeah! Actually, New Year's is a huge deal.
