[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

[Heather's wearing a grin when her face appears on the screen. She TOLD him that thing was tougher than it looked!]

Pretty crazy, huh?

And uh, yeah, actually, it's okay to leave 'em like that. They won't bother you again after you walloped 'em real good. [She's seen the 'fainted' Pokemon get up after awhile and skulk off into the woods to lick their wounds, but never has she been attacked twice by one that her own Pokemon knocked out.]

[He smiles when he see's her.]

You were right. I underestimated her.

..Alright. I just wanted to be sure I wasn't supposed to stomp on them or something.

[Really Silent Hill monsters? You can't just "stay down"]

[foolishwren]

These things are a lot tougher than they look-- mine couldn't think his way out of a wet paper bag but when it comes to laying the smackdown...

Anyway, uh-- ... yeah, actually, it's... okay to leave them there.

[Heather actually sounds a little sheepish-- did she try stomping on them the first few times? YES. And did she hurt her foot while doing so? YES. For some reason, the fainted Pokemon turned rock-hard while they were down like that-- probably a defense mechanism to make sure nothing came along and ATE them while they were unconscious and completely vulnerable.]

[He chuckles.]

That's for sure.

What sort did you start with?

[suddenly! a spiky haired kid pops on the screen.]

The main tip about camping I could give you is... ration your food. [Sora's been here since late August and he's still not very good at this tip.]

[video]

[harryusedworry]

[He smiles at that.]

I'll be sure to do that then. Speaking from experience?

[video]

[newhero]

Yup! Well, I'm still trying to learn that one, actually.

Are you new here, sir?

[video]

[harryusedworry]

Yeah. I got here about a week or so ago.

[Video]

[harryusedworry]

Yeah. There isn't many places to stop around here and I'm going to meet my daughter.

Just something I'll have to get used to I guess.

[Video]

[harryusedworry]

Route 30 I think.

[philanthrotaku]

One of my best friends had a Togepi. I think it got pretty tough after he trained it for a while.

And yeah, they should be fine. Not entirely sure how, though.

[video]

[harryusedworry]

Still hard to believe the little girls so tough. Next time I'll just take Heather's word on it.

[Smiles at that. Then....awkward ...]

Oh...right.

[That's....totally why he was asking.]

I wonder how....

[video; 1/2]

[philanthrotaku]

...Honestly, you'll be asking 'how' about a lot of things. Eventually, you just kind of get used to how things never quite make sense.

[video]

[philanthrotaku]

...wait, did you say something about Heather?

[DING DING DING, connection made. And there is now a huge grin on Otacon's face.]

You must be Harry Mason, right?

[harryusedworry]

..They do?

[Crap, he knew he should have stomped on it.]

[harryusedworry]

No. I guess not.

......

It looked dead.
