_{[Wow.]

[That Vulpix on the screen sure looks pissed.]

[The ironic presence of the happy leftover Christmas lights behind it doesn't help.]

[A heavy sigh sounds from off-camera.]}

Man.

Leave it to her to get one last dig in just when I thought it was over.

_{[But Heather apparently isn't gonna elaborate on who 'her' is... though anyone who witnessed Heather's fiery freakout over the summer and knew what it was about might have a decent guess.]

[The camera just shifts as she gets up-- it lingers briefly on what looks like a box filled with crumpled wrapping paper-- in the middle of it sit two large eggs.]}

Hopefully the other living presents we got this year'll be friendlier.

_{[She turns the camera around at last and sort of regards it for a moment, chewing absent-mindedly on her lip. She's got a big wooly winter hat on, so either she just got in or she's about to go out. Probably the latter.]}

... Screw this year, man. Bring on the new one.

_{[HAPPY NEW YEAR ERRYBODY.]}

[ooc: ANYONE IN SAFFRON CITY IS FREE TO RUN INTO HEATHER, or assume she randomly stopped by wherever they are.]

Then it will be exceptionally painful to all parties involved.

Ironhide.

Heather.

_{[If this were video, she'd just stare dully at him for awhile. Not that staring contests with Ironhide are even remotely winnable, but still.]

[But since it isn't, she settles for heaving a big sigh.]}

If you'd rather just sit around and be mad at the fact that you're stuck in Olivine, do that, I guess.

Bah.

[He falls quiet. Damn it, he hates... doing things like this.]

... Figure something out.

You'd better.

'Cuz you're grouchy enough under normal circumstances, you don't need to be extra grouchy.

More grouchy?

You mean I have not improved? Gotten kinder in my old age?

_{[... Snort.]}

Well, I know you're a great big softie, but does the rest of the world?

The 'rest of the world' never needs to know.

You sure about that?

I mean, I could tell 'em. If you want.

Do that, and I will hold you off the top of a building by your audio receptor.

To do that, you'd have to catch me.

Which ain't gonna happen.

You would be surprised what I can do when motivated.

_{[Well, he can't see her, but he can probably HEAR her smirking.]}

Well, I'm sure that's true, but I'm also pretty sure that blasting over into another country in like two seconds isn't one of 'em. And that's what it'd take.

... I could do it if I wanted.

Sure, old man.

Sure.

Cliffjumper has a bird.

It'd still take at LEAST a day or two to fly all the way over to Kanto.

...

That is not funny.

Sore loser.

Are not.

If it makes you feel better to think that.

It does.
