Search Two: [Video]

[Harry Mason is sitting under a tree. Harry Mason looks quite tired...well still tired, and a little wet. Lisa the Togepi is sleeping peacefully in the bag. She's had a rough few days. Or at least some interesting ones. Harry has as well.

Which is why he's turning on the video link. Have an awkward smile.]

Well camping's taking a little time to get used to. I don't suppose I might be able to get some tips from people who've been at it longer? I don't think I've been camping for

....well it was a while ago.

[He glances over to the bag where Lisa is.]

Oh and anyone who was telling me my Togepi would surprise me. You were definilty right....I did not see that coming.

Ah...on that note. When the attacking...mons- pokemon...collapses like that...it's alright to just leave them there, right?

[People might assume he was worried about the creatures safety. He's more worried about whether or not he should have made sure it was dead.]

[Okay that took Harry by surprise.]

...a giant dog.

Heather, you hate dogs.

[No duh Harry. But he's really just stating that because....wth]

_[SOB.]

Yeeeeeeep.

N'that's not the only thing I hate.

_{[As if on cue (because timing like this only existed in sitcoms and the Pokemon world, apparently), the dog's snout crinkles before it sneezes explosively. ... Literally, considering a small tongue of flame licks the air in the process.]

[You can pretty much HEAR Heather facepalming.]}

[Just jumping back a little.]

...they gave you a fire breathing dog.

[Seriously? Could they not find any other phobia his daughter had, to shove in there as well? He'd like to have "words" with whoever was in charge of this.]

... Yeah. Yeah, they did.

_{[And if Heather was going to be entirely honest with herself, she was still a little bit miffed about that. ... Granted, she'd had more than enough time to at least get mostly used to it. Enough that the slobbery menace had become a friend rather than something to keep stuffed into one of those balls as much as possible. But... still.]

[The only other things it needed was to be a fire-breathing dog with a mirror for a face and they'd pretty much have all the bases covered.]}

... I named him Cujo.

_{[If ANYONE was going to be able to appreciate that reference, it was gonna be her dad.]}

[The smirk as he shakes his head shows he does.]

How is he?

He's...

Well. I've had a year to get used to him.

... S'probably the only dog I'll ever tolerate. Dumb as a sack of bricks.

_{[... But there WAS something akin to affection in her tone. She had learned to appreciate the mutt, after all.]}

He's too stupid to hurt anything.

... Well, 'cept for ... y'know, in battle.

One is better then none. It's good you managed to get used to him.

[Proud daddy is proud of you.]

How have you been doing?

[In between the many times they've probably checked in on each other since he first arrived.]

_{[She cracks a smile at that.]}

Yeah, he's... I don't mind him so much. _{[That wasn't to say she still didn't get some serious fight-or-flight reactions when he greeted her too enthusiastically, or when he got overexcited and nippy-- but eh. He was all right, even with the fire. It was kinda nice to have a living heater around to use as a pillow on cold winter nights.]}

I should warn you, though, he's... uh, he gets really excited around new people. _{[The lazy creature lying on the floor was just an example of what Cujo was like BETWEEN wild spells-- when it came to the speed at which he could dash around the room in an excited frenzy, he could go from zero to batshit in about .5 seconds.]}

But YEAH, I'm good! _{[You bet. Heather was grateful for the opportunities to continually confirm that he was HERE.]} I've been getting packed. M'leaving in the morning.

....I'll keep that in mind.

[He'll try not to attack your dog if it jumps him. He really will.]

That's good.

Alright. I'll continue travelling then. We'll meet somewhere along here.

Edited 2011-04-20 02:55 (UTC)

_{[MUCH APPRECIATED. Even though she'll totally understand if you do.]}

We can figure out where to meet when I get closer.

_{[She's... done this before, so-- ... she's the general timeline more or less worked out in her mind.]}

[Just make sure he doesn't have a weapon in his hands...]

That's true.

Oh you were right about the owls by the way.

_{[Nothing could be worse than the brutal ass-whooping she unleashed on the poor thing while she was hallucinating Silent Hill monsters all over the place-- ... but yeah, she'll try to make sure Harry doesn't have any sharp branches on his person when she introduces him to Cujo for the first time...]}

UGH! Aren't they awful?!

My first night in this place, I thought like-- ... some... grandma demon had snuck up on me and was standing at the end of my sleeping bag and screaming her brains out.

_{[And she had thrown every pick-uppable object within arm's reach of her sleeping bag in that general direction before she realized that there was no creepy grandma demon.]}

They're going to take a while to get used to.

I didn't know owls could make those noises.

Neither did I, till one decided to sit above my head and make noises like it was dying horribly.

_{[She'd captured it solely for the sake of shutting it up.]}

[He laughs at that.]

I suppose nature is just something else strange about this place.

Yeeeah. It only gets crazier from here, m'fraid to say.

_{[Most of the monsters from New Bark to Violet were all pretty small and relatively harmless-- ... e-except for the Beedrill. Erk. She'd better warn him about those later...]}

But otherwise, how're you farin'?

I've been doing well I think.
