_{[It's probably been a week and a half or so since anybody's heard a whole lot from Heather's end of the line-- given the recent turn of events, coupled with catching up on things with her father, she just hasn't been talking much.]

[But if anyone missed the sound of yet another ranty teenager on the 'Gear network, well, today their wishes and hopes will be realized.]

[A crackle of interference precedes her voice, and in the background there's the steady rumble of a Steelix making headway on a dirt path.]}

Heeeey Johto, what's crackin'?

Totally fell off the face of the planet for a bit there.

Anyway, for those who care, Goldenrod just came into sight over the hill, so Dad and I'll be strolling into town within a couple hours, probably.

I'll be lookin' for a few of you as soon as we get checked in and stuff-- you guys know who you are. _{[She's lookin' at you, Kaito. Dinner plans aside, she still needs to give him that hug.]}

And uh-- Snake, you still in the hotel? I'll heal Solid up at the Center first if you want me to, but otherwise, I'm sure he'll be glad to see his Trainer. Sorry the trip wound up takin' so long.

Anyway, uh-- ... see you guys in a few hours.

... Feel free to call me up and chat, though, the road's dusty and it's a real bore to look at for hours on end.

_{[ooc: For Action, feel free to encounter Heather in the hotel lobby or Pokemon Center healin' up her monsters after arriving.]}

Nah.

_{[Although she had considered her need to go see her father to be pretty dire. Given, you know, the fact that he was DEAD back home.]}

Just went to see him 'cause he's my dad.

Yay!

I miss my dad...you think he'll show up too?

_{[She vaguely remembers Artemis saying something about a missing father... at some point. But she doesn't let on. Just offers one of her trademark toothy grins.]}

If mine did, anything's possible.

And Myles? And Mommy? And Butler?

[Super excited now!!!]

Maybe.

I've seen a lot of folks show up here who I didn't expect.

COOOOOOL!

[What follows is a string of cheering and singing and thumping as he celebrates something that may never happen.]

_{[Hopefully she didn't get the kid's hopes up TOO high... because Artemis probably wouldn't take it kindly if he had to listen to a bunch of bouncing and screaming about their family coming to Johto.]

[In any case, she winces slightly as the general cacophony sets in and disconnects the call. S-SHE'S NOT ACTUALLY THAT GOOD AT TALKING TO KIDS.]}
