[Heather's not even sure why she TRIES anymore.]





[So done. So done.]</sub>


Here we go again.


... Yes, Cooj, I still love you.

Just not right now.

So if I were to ask you if you'd picked off and ingested any parasites lately, you wouldn't be at all offended?

[foolishwren]

.... I dunno, maybe I like eating bugs.

Maybe I'm offended at the insinuation that being asked if I eat bugs is a bad thing.

[sciencetank]

...

Do you?

video;

[foolishwren]

... What would you do if I said yes?

_{[SHE'S JUST TESTING THE WATERS.]}

[sciencetank]

I would ask for a demonstration of your refueling habits, of course.

video;

[foolishwren]

Well, there aren't any bugs around here, so I guess you'd just have to be disappointed.

Unless you wanted to... I dunno, go find some or something.

_{[HOW DEDICATED TO SCIENCE ARE YOU, PROFESSORBOT?]}

Given the study I've made of your world, the lack of insects in any given area is impossible. It's far more likely that you're currently surrounded my the creatures right now.

According to data, you're rarely more than two feet from a "spider" at any given moment.

[foolishwren]

Yeah, in my world.

In case you hadn't noticed, this ISN'T my world.

The bugs are bigger. You can't FIT three hundred of them in every yard.

[sciencetank]

Have you tried?

[foolishwren]

<sub>[... She's not even going to answer that.]

[She's not even going to dignify that with an answer.]

[So instead he just gets this judgmental bitchface.]</sub>

[sciencetank]

That's not an answer, that's a staring contest.

video;

[foolishwren]

If you'd like to try to cram a bunch of bugs from THIS world into a tiny space, be my guest.

video;

[sciencetank]

I'm certain it's doable. One must simply think outside the proverbial box, as it were.

video;

[foolishwren]

Well you can think outside the box all you like, but I'll be over here, bein' right until proven wrong.

video;

[sciencetank]

... Where is "here", exactly?

video;

[foolishwren]

It's called Johto.

... Or Kanto, technically.

No clue what the world's called, just know a few of the countries.

video;

[sciencetank]

Now that is the first helpful thing you've said thusfar.

video;

[foolishwren]

Well you could've asked sooner, y'know.

I sort of assumed you couldn't go five feet in this place without running into one of the giant mutant animals, so ...

video;

[sciencetank]

I could have. But I didn't.

Mm, forgive me if I was rather too focused on contacting my team than determining the given geographical name of the region I've suddenly turned up in. Not to mention, biology is hardly an area I've ever desired to specialize in.

[foolishwren]

Right, well, sorry or something.

_{[She's not that sorry. >8I HE'S A GIANT ROBOT. He should have like... Wifi-capabilities or something.]}

Who are you, anyway?

video;

[sciencetank]

Perceptor!

One of Cybertron's most brilliant scientific minds, lead researcher in the Sea of Rust.

Who are you?

[foolishwren]

....


Heather Mason.

One of Saffron City's baddest bitches.

If we're gonna use my official title, anyway.

[sciencetank]

...




Baddest... bitches...?

[That probably shouldn't have come out as awkwardly as it did, but that's what happens when you're insufferably space British.]

video;

[foolishwren]

YEP.

<sub>[You heard her bro.]

[Actually, she's just sort of... mocking the way he felt 'one of Cybertron's most brilliant scientific minds' needed to be included in a first-time introduction, but... yeah.]</sub>

video;

[sciencetank]

[Sadly, that's how he introduces himself to... everyone. Sorry, Heather.]

I've never heard that last word before.
