[Video, SLIGHTLY backdated to the last week of January]

<sub>[DING! It's a video post!]

[The video is pointed downwards at the front stoop of a house. Where there seems to be a respectably-sized pile of oblong objects. The camera wavers slightly as it comes into focus on the pile.]

[... It's bread.]

[Loaves of all shapes, colors, and sizes, just... dumped right on the doormat.]

[We're talking everything from the Johto equivalent of Wonderbread to rustic artisanal bakery items.]

[Then the camera's view swings back around to Heather; bleary-eyed, slightly grouchy, and clearly just woke up to find, for the umpteenth time this month, that the secret bread fairy had once again visited her place of residence.]

[All things considered, it's one of the less alarming, more harmless stalker-style pranks she's experienced.]

[But that doesn't make it any less baffling.]</sub>

WHO. IS DOING THIS.

Oh, is it hard when you squish it? It's been out all night?

[ Because that is the legit reason not to try it. ]

[foolishwren]

--that's not... that doesn't matter.

<sub>[AND YET, HE HAS GIVEN HER PAUSE.]

[The camera's view shifts back down to the Bread Pile and after a second, a brown boot experimentally kicks one of the loaves, which flies offscreen and shortly afterwards there is a distant clatter.]</sub>

... But yeah it's all frozen.

[machismost]

Aw man... You can't give that to Pidgeys. What a waste.

But I guess maybe you can tell at least how long ago whoever dropped it off by how hard it got.

Oh! Do you think maybe you got someone else's order by mistake?

[foolishwren]

If so, then that person must be REAL pissed by now because this has been happening all month.

_{[If it was orders meant for a neighbor, she's sure one of them would have said something about it by now.]}

HOLY CRAP, ALL MONTH?!

[ So much sad, discarded bread... ]

Why haven't you put out a basket by now? Or a sign? "Thanks, no more bread"?

[foolishwren]

A basket would've encouraged it!

And a sign... feels passive-aggressive!

<sub>[Actually, she genuinely had not thought about putting up a sign.]

[She'd been too busy slowly going crazy trying to think of ways to catch the bread bandit in the act.]</sub>

[machismost]

But if you can't ever seem to meet whoever it is then a sign is the only way to communicate... Not doing anything but throwing out the bread seems more passive-aggressive.

[ Kirishima purses his lips in thought. ]

D'you think maybe one of your Pokemon could have a secret admirer? Or have you done something nice for a wild Pokemon lately?

[ The bread on the raw ground just says Pokemon to him. And he's more of the mind to see this as gifts than a way to drive Heather insane. ]

[foolishwren]

_{[A secret admirer for one of her POKEMON... actually makes a lot of sense. Could that be the answer? She knows that sort of thing has happened before...]}

Well...

I gave some of those Snover a bunch of muffins at the beginning of the month.

But that was kind of maybe because I caught my Charizard juggling a few of them.

So I don't count it being "something nice" so much as "please do not make me get cancelled on Chatter again".
