She thinks on that for a second or two, and then rolls her shoulders in a 'sorta' gesture.
"Yeah, I guess you could say that..."
... About Johto more than Ecruteak itself... which, on second thought, may have been what he was going for. Because if there was ANY word to describe this world... 'fickle' was indeed a very good one. She'd already known that, months go. She'd learned it when her father had disappeared the first time.
... But she'd been reminded forcibly of it, just in case she'd forgotten (she hadn't), on the day she'd walked into this peaceful town.
It hadn't just been Snake, really... She was sad about that, sure, but... somehow, there had been closure. The fact that he'd left her his headband made it feel a little more like it had been something he'd planned on... something she could, with a little convincing, be okay with.
... It was the fact that Aoko Nakamori had disappeared literally a scant few hours after that with no delay, no warning whatsoever, that had shaken Heather up so soundly that her brains still felt rattled. She'd known all about the disappearances, and lost more than a few people ... but she'd never had someone disappear when she'd literally said 'Okay, I'm gonna pass out for a couple hours. See you for dinner in a few!' to their face just mere hours before.
".... N'I feel kinda helpless."
... Yeah, she's definitely not talking about Ecruteak being too quiet for her to fall asleep anymore.
