goodcop[Have a weary-looking Cybil with a Zubat curled up, sleeping, on her shoulder. She looks...slightly miffed but she's keeping her cool and taking a breather in a Pokemon Center.]
Of course the weather starts getting better as soon as I get here. Don't think I want to be caught in the middle of traveling in a storm like that ever again.
I should have payed attention to the weather more carefully before heading out...I'm usually more forward-thinking than this...
[She rubs the back of her neck and shakes her head.]
So, for curiosity's sake [and she motions to the Zubat snoozing on her shoulder] how common are these bats? I caught this one before I headed out, but took shelter in a local cave and, even though I wasn't able to see much, I did catch glimpses of them every five seconds. I wish I was exaggerating.
[Sloppily privated to Heather]
Well, I've made it to Violet City. How'd you fare through the storm?

[sloppily privated] ffffff. well, prose log might be nice if you don't mind!
Date: 2011-02-12 09:03 pm (UTC)[........oooh boy. Y'know, if she didn't feel responsible to help finding you back home...just. Heather, you make such eclectic friends.]
Just on food, really. I don't exactly have money to spare at the moment.
[OH MAN HEATHER she's definitely going to keep a closer eye on you once she finally meets you in person.]
Well that's...good to hear. At least you're traveling with people who sound like they know what they're doing.
[back in Silent Hill it was very easy to at least lose you. But at least now you aren't running around and floating away.]
Sounds good. I can really use some real food right about now. I never really expected to live off trail mix.
[sloppily privated] Prose sounds great to me!
Date: 2011-02-12 09:27 pm (UTC)[She has the best of tastes in bros. Obviously.]
I guess the pickings are pretty slim when it comes to jobs in Cherrygrove... I worked at the Center there for a few days but I don't recall it paying out too well then, either.
[And that's... probably a good idea, Cybil, given Heather's knack for getting in trouble. Ironically, the police department in Violet City will NOT be happy to see her back in town again.]
Yeah, they've got good heads on their shoulders when it comes to this stuff. ... Well, Snake does, anyway... I'm pretty sure Phoenix would get eaten by nature or fall into a ditch and die or something if I didn't keep an eye on him, so uh... one outta two, I guess!
[Don't be so sure, Cyb, Heather might not do the floating thing anymore but she makes up for it by being really, really good at running. Fortunately, she's not interested in running away from her father's pal.]
You know, after that first multiple-day hike from New Bark to Cherrygrove, I literally never wanted to taste trail mix again in my life. To this day, I STILL haven't bought any.
[Of course, she could afford to buy other stuff now-- sounded like Cybil wasn't that fortunate yet.]
[ACTION for Heather's side of the gear]
Date: 2011-02-12 09:33 pm (UTC)Gee, thanks, Heather.
[Action but it's visible to Cybil anyway]
Date: 2011-02-12 09:45 pm (UTC)[Reaching over her shoulder to smush his face with the flat of her palm because that's what he gets for eavesdropping. Get outta the frame, lawyer-man.]
[ooc: l-lol I just realized Heather never told Cybil about her false name. THAT'LL BE FUN TO EXPLAIN.]
[private video that's...being eavesdropped on.]
Date: 2011-02-13 03:47 am (UTC)Heather?
...]
Did he just call you Heather?
[HAVE ANOTHER SKEPTICAL LOOK. you had her convinced that you were Cheryl but...now she's...well yeah, skeptical. Sorry, this cop's a cynic.]
[private video -- travelmates are pesky like that.]
Date: 2011-02-13 04:09 am (UTC)[S-sort of.]
[eavesdropping action! -- THAT THEY ARE. :D b]
Date: 2011-02-13 04:15 am (UTC)A...nickname?
[When she says it has something to do with her dad, though, something clicks -- so he just gives Heather a "you could have told me sooner" look and doesn't add anything else.]
[private video]
Date: 2011-02-13 04:17 am (UTC)But she's kind of deducing it has something to do with that whackjob, druggie cult.]
Interesting choice of nickname. But I guess I can wait until then for an explanation.
[a pause, and she carefully removes the Zubat from her shoulder as it's starting to twitch and whack her in the face with a wing.]
Speaking of, where are we meeting up when you're done and rested? This place is a whole lot larger than the last town.
[private video]
Date: 2011-02-13 04:26 am (UTC)Yeah, it was... pretty weird to get used to at first. [She'll... wait to go into more detail than that, but she's hoping that at least that'll suggest there's more to it than just 'Oh hi I have a completely different name than I said I did!']
Okay, let's see... it's been awhile since I've been here, but if I remember correctly, there should be a little coffee shop on the corner, sorta by the little convenience store-- or Mart or whatever they call 'em. It's kinda like Starbucks, but not? Similar logo, I mean.
