[What tiiiiiiiiiiime is it?]

[.... GYM BATTLE TIME!]

[The feed, as often is the case whenever Heather actually films one of her battles, seems manned by the resident camera-crocodile, and airborne thanks to Honey the ever-patient Butterfree (although not quite as airborne as it was back in Violet City during the victory over Falkner-- Godzilla isn't ( Read more... )

[......well that was lucky!]

Heather! Congrats on you win!

And on your Pokemon evolving! That was....pretty lucky.

[video] foolishwren August 1 2011, 03:44:12 UTC

[IT WAS INDEED. Beating the Steelix must have finally pushed her over the tip of the iceberg and to the level required for evolution.]

Hahah, yeah-- uh-- lucky!

Thanks.

[Go Heather go.]

...didn't plan that, huh?

How many badges you got now?

[video] foolishwren August 1 2011, 06:20:24 UTC

Four.

Gotta go back to Ecruteak and kick the ghost-dude's butt next.

[ she hadn't made the connection before, with the former Ponyta's name, not until now, after she'd witnessed-- and Rise looks unusually hesitant, before she speaks up.

... With a Rapidash curiously nosing the screen, because HELLO FELLOW UNICORN. ]

I've known Teddie too long if I'm picking up puns that you're missing.

[video] foolishwren August 1 2011, 03:45:24 UTC

[Yeeeeaaah, Heather hadn't picked the name 'Carousel' for nothin'.]

[Fortunately, Heather looks a little shaken but not overly upset. It wasn't like she hadn't already gotten used to Carousel's on-fireness as a little Ponyta.]

Wh-- there was a pun?

[WHAR]

[video] restardom August 1 2011, 04:38:36 UTC

... Well, it's gone now!

[video] foolishwren August 1 2011, 05:50:14 UTC

Darnit!

Usually I'm good at catching those... eheh.

[Watching the fight of course. He'll wait till she get's closer to the camera, noticing her stepping away from the horse.]

Congratulations.

Action foolishwren August 1 2011, 03:52:07 UTC

[The sudden up-sizing of her pony is a somewhat nasty shock, but Heather's more than willing to push that aside for the moment. This was her first big battle that she got to have with her father watching.]

[Banishing the unsure expression from her face in favor of a triumphant grin, she picks up a jog through the sand on her way back to the seats.]

Whatcha think, Dad?

Pretty impressive, huh?

Action harryusedworry August 1 2011, 18:32:08 UTC

Very.

You were great out there.

Action foolishwren August 1 2011, 21:15:28 UTC

[She always took it for granted when he'd said things like that back home... not anymore. She beams, leaning on the short barrier between the field and the stands.]

Thanks, Dad.

... It's great to finally do one of these with you here to watch.

[She'd had friends and fictive-family come to her gym battles before, but it was never the same.]

...are you okay? You don't sound overly enthusiastic.

{Text} foolishwren August 1 2011, 03:53:48 UTC

[UH OH IT'S NANAO-- QUICK BETTER READY THE BLUNT ONE-WORD ANSWERS.]

Fine.

[B) Awwwww yeeeeaaaaah. ... Well okay that's a little TOO blunt.]

Just got a little surprised.

{Text} used_glare August 9 2011, 02:23:53 UTC

{Your concern for her is overwhelming.}

...I suppose a flaming unicorn is a little... startling.

Congratulations on the badge, though. How many do you have now?

{Text} foolishwren August 9 2011, 06:03:41 UTC

Yeah

that was basically the last thing I expected. not complainning though

and I have 4 now.

[Henry watched the battle in what was more or less silence. He hadn't actually SEEN many battles, having only attacked Pokemon hand-to-hand himself. This one was a show! He'd sat stiff-backed and wide eyed through the whole thing because NOSE AND FIRE AND HOLY FUCK GIGANTIC METAL SNAKE THAT SOUNDS LIKE A TRACTOR. The one or two feeble "Go, Heather!"s he let out were swallowed up in the battle.]

[He'd never seen a Pokemon evolve either. LOTS OF FIRSTS FOR HENRY TODAY. Once the dust settles, Henry clambers out of the bleachers and shuffles on over, completely oblivious to Heather's discomfort.]

That was really cool.

[action] foolishwren August 1 2011, 04:01:28 UTC

[The Rapidash looks up and whickers at Henry's approached.]

[Heather turns as well, taking that opportunity to take another few steps away from the horse. She grins despite herself.]

Thanks!

I've had a whole year to practice my battlin' style-- me and my gang're hot stuff, gotta admit.

[action] no_ufo_ending August 1 2011, 04:16:46 UTC

[Henry freezes up a little. Carousel was BIG...and covered in fire. He didn't want to do anything the fire pokemon might not like. Henry, though he was the poke'whisperer, didn't know Rapidash-ese yet.]

That was a lot more exciting than the game. I didn't even know Onix evolved. I think my teeth are vibrating.

[That last bit would have made sense if he mentioned the amount of noise the thing had made but...NOPE.]

[action] foolishwren August 1 2011, 04:21:55 UTC

[IT'S OKAY, SHE WAS ON THE FIELD. Steelix are loud.]

[In any case, she's more than happy for the chance to be all show-offy in front of her shy room-mate.]

[Buffing her nails casually on her vest pocket, she tosses her head idly.]

Yeah... this place can get pretty crazy sometimes... honestly, it takes a real badass to be able to smoke Gym Leaders that quickl-- FFffppt!

[And that would be Heather flailing to the side slightly as Carousel nosed her vest pockets in search of treats.]
