_{[As is fairly regular with Heather, who never really plans AHEAD when she turns her feed on, the video opens with a brief glimpse at something entirely-unrelated!]

[Two large Houndooms, one bare-necked and the other wearing a large, studded leather collar-- are at play in a sunny patch of park. Or more accurately, the big collar-wearing one is TRYING to get the other to play, in a show of big-dog posturing, and the uncollared one is sort of just mild-manneredly humoring him.]

[Right before the camera shifts, though, a blur of blue and yellow barrels into the larger of the two hellhounds and the one-sided playtime promptly becomes an enthusiastic wrestling match between Tricia (the Manectric recently inherited from Cooper) and Huan (the Houndoom even more recently inherited from Otacon).]

[But then it's Heather's face dominating the screen, because she apparently has other things in mind than just showing the network a bunch of dogs running around the park.]}

Hey.

So.

If there's anyone around who knows much about horses... riding horses, specifically...

I'm looking to learn. Any advice's appreciated. Thanks in advance.

_{[... Well that was unusually businesslike and to the point. ... For someone like Heather, anyway. There's not much humor in the usually-goofy girl's voice today.]

[Before she can flick the 'Gear off, there's a commotion offscreen and she looks off in the direction of the noise, clearly exasperated.]}

... TCH, god dammit Cujo.

_{[The view shifts as she gets up and it becomes apparent that Cujo the Hulking Behemoth of a Growlithe (tm) had decided to join the fray and promptly plowed straight OVER at least two of the participants, who are now chasing after him in a big herd of barking chaos across the park. OH THOSE CRAZY DOGES.]

[End feed.]}

[PRIVATE MESSAGE TO JEANE]

HEY. How did you do that shit at the party?

_{[... well wtf is that supposed to mean, Heather. Clarification is apparently not going to be provided until she gets a reply.]}

_[....8Ic]

Yes!

_{[Heather, remember who you're talking to.]}

_{[... oh that's right she forgot for a moment there. :|]}

...

Henry, this is why you had to waste like two hours at a rest stop that one time.

Hey! That was one restaurant! I'm sure that's all it was. Who lets a Sneazel sleep on the same counter you serve food over anyway?

Yeah, but Dad and I had no trouble, and you were the only one chowing down on leftovers like three days afterwards...

I don't believe in wasting food. I'm a survivor.

You won't be for long if you keep eating chow mein that's turned grey.

I survived art school, Heather, I can eat anything.

All right, well don't blame me if you get food poisoning and have to get your stomach pumped by Nurse Tank.

_{[Because she's positive that if anyone was ever admitted to the Center for something like that, it wouldn't be the cute little Joys who'd be taking care of you. IT WOULD BE TANK.]}

_{[Henry pales visibly.]

[H-he doesn't want to go see Nurse Tank.]}

Uh huh.

_{[DAS WHAT'LL HAPPEN, YO. Trust Heather. She's a Johto veteran!]}

_{[8C YEAH he's just gonna sit on his end of the gear and think about Nurse Tank. Heather has made her point.]}
