Heather Mason | Silent Hill | come at me you glorious bastards

[foolishwren]

<sub>[YOU KNOW IT'S FOURTH WALL, WHEN...]

[1. There's already a video recording on the network of the Magic Schoolbus plunging into the Cinnabar volcano.]

[2. The background music in the Department Store changed to Yackety Sax and consequently everything degenerated into chaos within minutes.]

[And most importantly, 3. when you wake up with a light saber on your bedstand.]</sub>




[OOC: IMAGE LINK LEADS TO AN IMPORTANT VIDEO. Your character may encounter Heather ANYWHERE, with or without the beam sabre. JUST FUCK ME UP.]

[action]

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[Henry looks up from the Pokemon Center help desk, clearly frazzled from the STREAM of people rushing in. Most of them just want to hide from the chaos blooming outside and others are worried something is wrong with their pokemon once it has started tap-dancing or the only thing that comes out of their pokeball is a three-tier wedding cake.]

[Henry leans around one of the guests when he notices a familiar tuft of hair.]</sub>

Heather, you can't bring that in here!

[action]

[foolishwren]

_{[She comes RIGHT UP TO THE COUNTER.]}

It's the weekend.

I can do whatever I want.

_{[SHE COULD JUST SWING IT AROUND LIKE A GLOWSTICK AT A RAVE, KILLING EVERYONE IN HER IMMEDIATE RADIUS. ... But she's not... going to do that, because she's not a sociopath.]}

[action]

[no_ufo_ending]

_{[Henry grits his teeth and lets out a little groan.]}

Well have fun with that. Some of us have to clean up the chaos. Wh--hold on.

_{[He looks down at the data screen in the desk and quickly hurries to the back to collect a pokeball. When he returns to the front he calls to a worried-looking woman in a big fluffy fur coat.]}

Mrs. Rover, I'm sorry, but we just can't find anything wrong with your Stoutland. She's perfectly healthy. Just wait a couple of days and I'm sure she'll be back to normal.

_{[The woman snatches the ball from his hand and releases an enormous naked dog.]}

DOES THIS LOOK HEALTHY TO YOU??? WE HAVE A SHOW IN TWO WEEKS. THERE IS NO WAY HER FUR WILL GROW BACK THAT SOON!

_{[Henry hunches his shoulders, unable to give her a satisfactory answer.]}

[action]

[foolishwren]

<sub>[Wh... oh, come on, lady.]

[Heather rolls her eyes and butts RIGHT in. She ain't about to stand for this. Henry might need to suck it up on a NORMAL day, but it's the Weekend, baby!]</sub>

Hey, lady, I'm pretty sure you skinned your dog to get that coat.

Pokemon Centers don't have a warranty for animal cruelty.

[exeggutorhead]

[Envy knows exactly what kind of weekend it is when he pops awake in the morning not feeling the slightest bit groggy. He's SO ALERT.]

[And the reason he woke up is right next to him picking something up off the bedstand--but what is it?]

What'd you get? Does that do something?

[foolishwren]

<sub>[She's staring at the thing in her hands. Trying to work out why it feels so familiar. ... Oh yeah. :I It's familiar because it's NOT CANON BUT STILL TOTALLY HERS.]

[She doesn't answer Envy-- just holds it out a safe distance away from them... and then hits the button.]

[A blade of pure green light appears with that iconic buzzing hum.]</sub>

[exeggutorhead]

[WOAH.]

Hey! The thing from those movies!

Shit, cut through something! See if it works the same!

[It'll all be back to normal after the weekend anyway! HOW COOL IS THIS.]

[foolishwren]

_{[She hops out of bed, because trying to swing this thing while sitting down seems like a bad idea-- and frankly looks slightly ridiculous standing there in her tank top and underwear holding a freaking light saber.]}

Throw a pillow at me!

[action]

[toothaches]

Oh, hey! Hele--uh wait no HEATHER! It's Heather, right?

_{[A pudgy guy astride a Gogoat comes galloping her way, hunched forward in the saddle to avoid the low-flying flock of winged Magikarp.]}

Where'd you find that? Are there any more?

[action]

[foolishwren]

_{[OH HEY! IT'S DAT BOI.]}

Not that I know of. Brought my own.

<sub>[Because you know what the beam saber may not be canon BUT IT'S STILL HERS OK.]

[She does, however, hold it out for him to admire.]</sub>

... Don't touch the blade, obviously.

[action]

[toothaches]

Ah man, that's too bad...

<sub>[He gives the Gogoat's horns a little tug to slow him to a stop beside Heather. He opens his mouth to apologize for bugging her and to wish her a good weird day when she makes her offer.]

[And Maurice's face fucking LIGHTS UP. He quickly dismounts and leans down to inspect the thing's handle.]</sub>

This is so cool! Like--so everything's real weird but it's still cool! I get to actually see it this time and not just hear the stories. Oh and uh. It's nice to finally meet you.

_{[He gives her a shark-toothed but bashful grin.]}

Thanks again for helpin' me out in the beginning.

[action]

[foolishwren]

Huh?

... OH!

_{[Oh, that's right, she DID give him some advice.]}

Hey, no problem.

Advantage to being an old-timer: you usually have something helpful to say.

Wanna see this thing in action?

[keychained]

[good gravy, Goldenrod is a disaster.]

[but somewhere amid the piles of people and pokemon and things that probably aren't actually pokemon, there's this kid with goofy looking hair and a ridiculous outfit with his nose buried in a map. he's standing not too far from the Pokemon Center, not really looking all that fazed by the chaos — or the delighted girafarig that's munching on his hair.]

[so really, he blends right in!]

[foolishwren]

<sub>[IT SURE IS. But isn't it always, on these weekends?]

[Needless to say, in the chaos, it's hard to notice specifics-- especially the specific in question is someone who there's been quite a few versions of flitting in and out over the years.]

[But you know who's good at noticing specifics, often to the point of obsession?]

[A deep BOOF rings out through the crowded square!]</sub>

Cooj, where're you-- aw hell!

_{[INCOMING GROWLITHE THE SIZE OF A FAT ST. BERNARD, because MOM HOLY SHIT IT'S PUDDLES!!!]}

[keychained]

[HOLY LEPPA BERRIES IT'S CUJO HOW YOU BEEN DUDE LOOK I FOUND MY TRAINER Puddles is going to pass out if he doesn't stop bleating frantically, front hooves stretched wide in front of him as he bends down in an almost dog-like play bow.]

[and Sora, engrossed as he was in his map, snaps right to attention when he realizes Puddles has found somebody he recognizes - because that's exactly what he'd been hoping would happen.]

Cujo?

[a beat (and more delighted giraffe chatter) as Sora scans the crowd.]

.... Heather!

[foolishwren]

<sub>[Ever see those videos of a dog reacting to, like, its owner coming back from a tour of military duty? That's Cujo right now.]

[Whimpering and wagging low to the ground, he can't seem to decide if he wants to be ON HIS BACK in front of Puddles, or running around him in excited circles.]

[MEANWHILE, AS FOR HEATHER...]</sub>

--huh?

<sub>[THERE SHE IS. Older! Tanner! ... Wiser? ... YEAH, she's earned that!]

[At first when she sees Sora, she looks a little confused. Not that she's forgotten him-- she's just not used to him knowing who she IS anymore.]

[Then her face lights up.]</sub>

Sora?

_{[HER Sora?]}

Holy crap!

[show_my_cannons]

[Just gonna casually scoop her up onto a big shoulder. Beam Sabre and all.]

[Because it's 4th Wall, he can be here now.]

Who are we fighting?

[foolishwren]

<sub>[By now? She's hardly surprised when she's plucked off the ground and swept up. As always... it's good to see her old friend again.]

[She knocks on his head.]</sub>

Whoever we want.

Whaddya say we go find some gangsters and show 'em what for?

[show_my_cannons]

Gangsters? Since when do you have gangsters here?

[But please notice he's not saying no. Or telling her not to do that.]

[He is eyeing her a bit though.]

You have gotten taller.

[foolishwren]

You say that every time you see me.

Pretty sure I'm not gonna do much more growing at this point.

action;

[armoredsoul]

[...boy he sure did just watch her chop a whole got damn tree in half. LENGTHWAYS.]

Do I want to know where you found that thing?

action;

[foolishwren]

Well, it was jammed in a door, originally. Found it when I tried to jiggle the knob.

But that was years ago, and it wasn't canon. Sooo TODAY, I just found it on the bedstand.

_{[She says, casually, as the tree comes crashing down cacophonously and takes out the fence separating their yard from the neighbors'.]}

action;

[armoredsoul]

[Heather. Heather why.]

[Al sighs and runs his hand back through his hair.]

Just do me a favor and try to not hurt anyone that doesn't deserve it with that thing? ...what is it, anyway?

action;

[foolishwren]

This... is a beam saber.

_{[She waves it in the air a little, producing that signature electric hum.]}
