123. [Video/Action for Route 44]

[foolishwren]

<sub>[The camera comes on.]

[There is a very fluffy-looking Heather Mason, along with a small army of Fire-types (Cujo the Growlithe, along with Carousel the Rapidash and two enormous Houndooms) + one Pikachu.]

[She is wearing a pair of sunglasses.]

[So is one of the Houndooms.]

[She looks dead into the camera and speaks.]</sub>

I'm gonna melt Ice Path.

_{[And the feed ends.]}




[20 MINUTES LATER]

<sub>[... Or not.]

[The camera is on again, showing a very concerned electric rodent. Hazel the Pikachu gnaws on her lip slightly as she focuses the video, then turns it to show the so-called Ice Path melter a short distance down the snowy mountain path.]






[Apparently instincts are a thing.]</sub>

Ha! Yeah, burn that thing out and save everyone from that shitty cave for generations to come. Heather Mason, you're the hero we all deserve.

[video 2/2 TWENTY MINUTES LATER]

[exeggutorhead]

[Oh my god. This is somehow even better than witnessing Lust chase bugs in the yard.]

[His voice is strained to its limits from holding in laughter.]

That...that doesn't look anything like melting the ice path. What are you even going after?

[Video]

[foolishwren]

_{[She pops up out of the snow with it caked all over her face and hair.]}

DON'T YOU FUCKING LAUGH AT ME, ENVY!

_{[She wishes he had a middle and last name so that she could make that command sound more official. But her ears are swiveling-- whatever she was after is STILL DOWN THERE!!]}

I was-- I HEARD something-- there!

_{[And then she just starts... plowing through the snow with her face, tail flicking madly behind her.]}

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

I'm not laughing!

[Or at least he wasn't, because when she goes after the mystery noise AGAIN, he completely loses it. He's just HOWLING.]

Get--haha--GET it!

[And that's all the words he can even get out.]

[Video]

[foolishwren]

<sub>[DAMMIT ENVY she'll get you for this later.]

[But for now she's busy being a living snowplow. Every so often she'll stop, pop her head back up, listen, and then start tunneling madly in a different direction.]

[She's only been part-Pokemon for a couple of days, though-- she's not exactly a mighty hunter. So after this goes on awhile, it's obvious her quarry has eluded her. She flops into the snow and just wheezes.]</sub>

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

[By the time she flops over, Envy's mostly got himself back under control. But the amusement is still very clear in his voice.]

Doing all right, there?

[Video]

[foolishwren]

_{[She lifts one paw-hand to flip him the bird. A stubby, fluffy little white bird.]}
