038. Text/Action (forward-dated and/or back-dated (lol what is timelines) to arrival in Goldenrod.
[CIVILIZATION. PAVEMENT. RUNNING WATER THAT IS NOT FROM A RIVER. BEDS WITH SHEETS.]
[After finally reaching the edge of the city with Kaito, one way or another, Heather's obtained one of those much-sought-after hotel rooms after a long day of worn-out job-hunting, which she apparently set off to do the moment she got into town. You can't say she's not dedicated. It took awhile to find a place that would be impressed enough with a bedraggled ex-fugitive traveler (even though she HAD grabbed a quick shower in the Pokemon Center to make herself a little more presentable), but she'd finally found one in the form of a cashier in the department store.]
[Work started sharp the next day, which meant that here and now-- after a good month of roughing it in the wilderness and little to no normal creature comforts, Heather was finally able to wobble into a room that she didn't have to sneak into. You know how good that feels?]
[Answer: REALLY FRIGGING GOOD.]
[Backpack? Tossed on the floor. Vest? Chucked over in the little chair by the window. HEATHER? Flopped onto the bed, just long enough to rattle off a text message containing the words she's been waiting to type for WEEKS.]
MADE IT TO GOLDENROD, BITCHES
AW YEAH
now I am going to take the longest shower in the history of mankind
and NO ONE CAN STOP ME
are you a bad enough dude to stop me? No. Nobody is. Sorry, it's just the truth.
Be back later
If you wanna contact me and I don't answer, don't panic. It'll be ok
As I said, I am taking the longest shower in the history of ever and I'm not coming out until my fingers are so pruney they look like scary old grandma hands.
OKAY ANYWAY BYE
HOT WATER IS CALLING AND ONLY I CAN ANSWER IT.
[Five minutes later]
Oh my god you guys, this place is so fancy, it has LOOFAHS
this is so hardcore
brb scraping off the dirt from my skin with the body of a dead sea creature impaled on a stick, LIKE A MAN
[... Looks like someone's excited about being back in business for real.]
[ooc: Action for those in Goldenrod regardless of timeframe-- they can encounter her when she enters the city, while she was waiting around in the Goldenrod Department Store trying to pick up a job, when she staggered into the lobby of the hotel towards the end of the day, OR later that night once she's finished with the SHOWER TO END ALL SHOWERS. She'll be around.]
