I'll do the best I can.

...Hakubi usually has one hell of a rough landing, anyway.

[Oh, this was ridiculous.]

Are you in your room?

Aheh, yeah.

Wanna come over?

Yeah, I'll be right there.

[And of course, shortly after there would be a knock on Heather's door.]

[There's a call of "It's open!" from the inside.]

[Otacon opened it and walked in, followed closely by his Skarmory.]

Hey.

[Heather's sitting on the end of the bed-- she looks up at the scientist and smiles.]

Hey...

...Are you...y'know, okay?

[He sat down a little hesitantly, Skarmory wandering over to Heather with the clear intention of getting headpats from this person.]

I-- ... yeah, I'm...

[She reaches out to run her hand across the smooth metal of the Skarmory's head, laughing a little. In a sort of 'I can't even believe this is happening' way.]

I'm great.

I mean... this is...

... I feel like I'm dreaming.

[That small, tiny spark of jealousy flared up again, but Otacon ignored it. This was a really good thing, after all. He didn't have any right to be jealous and he knew it.]

That's good to hear.

[SOB SORRY OTACON. This is a really big thing for her.]

I keep on thinking I'm gonna roll over and open my eyes and realize I just fell asleep with the TV on some cheesy family reunion soap opera.

Stuff this good ... doesn't happen to me.

[Good stuff HAPPENED, yes-- despite EVERYTHING, Heather knew she was a damn lucky individual to have made it this far, to have such good friends. But this? This was more than she could have asked for. More than she deserved. ... Well, okay, fuck deserving, she was gonna take it ANYWAY and not complain a bit, but STILL.]

W-well...maybe it should.

[action] foolishwren April 16 2011, 09:44:27 UTC
Heh, well... there's a lot of stuff that should happen...

[But she'd rather not dwell on it. Especially not in front of Otacon.]

Anyway, I'm just... sorta overwhelmed.

It's okay. Believe me, I understand.

[action] foolishwren April 16 2011, 18:00:23 UTC
Yeah...

[She nods, then goes silent for a little while, scuffing one bare heel on the carpet and absent-mindedly stroking the Skarmory's head.]

... So... are you... are you okay? With this?

...Why wouldn't I be?
