[This is the Goldenrod gym. Do you hear that sniveling? Yes, it's who you think it is. Whitney is there, flanked by her usual clique of trainers, and Clover is pointing at her with an accusatory finger. Our pink-haired protagonist (no, not Whitney) is surrounded by her winning team - an Absol, a Roselia and a Furret towering over them all.

...actually, the Roselia is kind of backing away slowly to join the Pikachu in charge of Clover's Gear.]

You...you meanie!

Shut up! Stop crying already! I won fair and square, so hand over that badge! And everything that goes with it!

[Whitney continues sobbing, and shakes her head. A blonde with a Meowth at her heels speaks up, twisting the end of her braid.]

Don't worry, she'll calm down eventually...

[And then the unlucky blonde also gets yelled at.] She should calm down now! I don't have time for this! [Clover turns and glares at Whitney, and stomps her foot.] Just give the Plain Badge to me and get this over with! Geez, what kind of gym leader are you?!

I think she's calming down now...

She better be! [Clover extends her hand in the classic GIMME THAT OR ELSE gesture.] Oh, and by the way, you should all look before you force people into dresses. At least try to tell girls and guys apart, will ya? 

[With this sort of mood, one can see how and why Clover escaped an unwanted makeover. Soon, Whitney calms down and goes through the formalities of handing over the badge, the squirt bottle and the other rewards, and Clover just mutters a simple "thanks" before striding out of the gym, followed by her team - as well as the Pikachu who flicks the Gear off.]

[Action - Goldenrod Mall, half an hour later]

[If you're at the mall, you might run into Clover looking over a display of stones, deep in thought. Her Zephyr Badge and Plain Badge are pinned proudly to her jacket. And her Roselia is following her veeeeery closely as if he'd get lost if he took a single step away from her. A Pikachu is whispering something to a Jigglypuff, meanwhile.

Clover digs through her jacket pockets and pulls out her wallet.]

Hey, Light, I think I might just have enough for a Shiny Stone. 

[The Roselia beams. His Roserade days are about to begin and he'll be looking girlier too]

And hopefully I'll be able to save up for Moon Stones, a Thunder Stone and a Fire Stone. Hopefully.

[Private call to Ken Amada]

How're you and your friend doing? You coming to Goldenrod?

[Private call to Miles Edgeworth]

Need anything from the mall? Or anywhere? Say it now 'cause after this I'll be at work. [She got a job at the Center so she's not far from him at all, but still. Work.]

[Filtered AWAY from Miles Edgeworth]

[Suddenly, Clover is dead serious.]

By the way, anyone got any tips on how to deal with a murderous Mareep that likes shocking people to within an inch of their lives? Don't suggest rubber gloves 'cause I've already gotten three pairs. And don't suggest getting rid of him either 'cause I think Miles is gonna keep him. The kid won't even let me take charge of the crazy thing while he's confined at the Center.

[She makes a noise that sounds like an irritated and a worried "ugh".]

If that Mareep tries electrocuting anyone again, I swear I'm gonna turn him into a wool coat and veal cutlets. 

[IT'S JUST A THREAT but it's clear Clover absolutely hates this Mareep. Well, she had been shocked too. Just...not to within an inch of her life, at least.]

[ALSO ALSO ALSO: BADGE WAS MOD-APPROVED!]

[CLOVER KNOWS HOW YOU FEEL, HEATHER. WOOL COAT AND VEAL, ANYONE?]

It's one thing to hear about her or hear her over the network, but it's another thing to hear her cry in person.

foolishwren: medically-induced coma and an Uber (fast-travel IRL with this one cool trick)

[Or a gas chamber. Heather has no sympathy for creatures that aim to maim, no matter how cuddly they look. Call it a survival-oriented mindset she'd developed after Silent Hill.]

Yeah, it's like a force of nature.

[I now have this mental image of Clover and Heather going murderous Mareep-hunting.]

I was so glad when she finally shut up and I got the heck outta there.

I had to get dragged out by Rise before she'd let me alone.

She wouldn't stop bitching about my hair.

Yeah, that's what I said!

[... She knows she doesn't take the BEST care of it, obviously, but c'mon, man. That was none of Whitney's business! >:(]

[Clover thinks Heather's hair is fine, really. ALTHOUGH IF THEY WOUND UP AT A SLUMBER PARTY...]

Did she...try to fix it herself?

foolishwren: generally what daddy tells me is pretty reliable (Daddy told me never to talk to strangers)
From: [personal profile] foolishwren
[Thus far, the only people who Heather's granted hair-fixing privileges to have been Rise and Liquid Snake. BIG SHOES TO FILL, CLOVER, BUT HEY, SLUMBER PARTIES...]

No, thank god.

I don't think she liked me enough for that.

[Heather had been 'that mean girl' who kept coming to the gym to watch her friends battle and then being snarky about Whitney's crying, so by the time Heather herself had shown up for the badge, there was some bad blood between them already.]

[SHE CAN MOST CERTAINLY TRY TO FILL THOSE SHOES. And nix the girly ribbons and clips if Heather says the word.]

...at least we won't have to see her again. Unless we tag along with people who have yet to battle her.

[... y-yeah Heather doesn't have enough HAIR to pull off ribbons. Clips maybe.]

Yeah, no thanks.

I'm not coming back to Goldenrod any time soon anyhow.

... And I'm pretty sure most of my friends have already got that badge.

How many badges d'you have right now?

[... ew no. :( Heather keeps her nails nice and all but that's so... sit-still-y.]

Four. Gonna go for my fifth sometime soon.

Awesome! I've only got two now, but I'm gonna collect 'em all!

Thanks! Well...we're not under time pressure or anything, at least.
