video; three full moons

[mccallmemaybe]

[ Scott isn't new here, but the following video will make it seem like he is.

Last night he went to bed sixteen years old, this morning he woke up in the body and mind of his eight year old self. He has no recollection of where he is and no memory of anyone he knows here. Waking up in a bed beside a mysterious sleeping lady (aka his future girlfriend) pretty much freaked him out. He found some keys in the room labelled "Allison's Pet Store" and took them, wandering around Freya until he found the store and locked himself inside, thinking it might be a safe place. Any customers or employees who come to the store might find it odd to see the closed sign on the door when the store should be open.

After poking the gem on his bracelet out of curiosity and discovering it was more than just a bracelet, he's managed to record himself in a video, hiding under a desk where the cash register is. ]

Hello? Can anyone hear me?

I need help. I think a lady kidnapped me. I need - my mom, I need to find her. Or Stiles. [ His best friend will know what to do. ]

Can someone help me? [ He starts to sound tearful. ] Please?

I wanna go home.

(ooc: Scott has been cursed for a few days! Replies will come from mccallmebb :3)

[ .. Yup, it really is him. This is still so weird, no matter how many times she sees it.. ]

No, of course I'm not! I mean.. [ .. how can she say this in a good way.. she can't lie either.. being honest is difficult and no one understands. ] We've met before. You mean you don't remember?

[mccallmebb]

[ Scott shakes his head. ] No... sorry.

Is this your store? Are you Allison?

[integrous]

Sorry, my name's Asahi. [ Probably not really encouraging, huh.. She sighs a little. ]

I work at this store though.

[mccallmebb]

You do? [ Scott gets distracted talking about the store for a moment. ] It's a cool place. You must like working here. You get to play with animals all day. [ That doesn't sound like work, that sounds like fun! ] I want to work somewhere like here when I'm older.

[integrous]

.. Hehe, you've got that right, at least.

[ Is he going along with it? She smiles, pretty genuinely this time, and nods, hoping she can relax him a little more. ]

It's really fun being with the animals! And don't worry, I'm sure you'll get a great job like that. Just trust me, okay?

[mccallmebb]

Uh... okay.

Were you kidnapped too?

[integrous]

To this place? Yeah. [ She shakes her head slightly at it, but she's still holding herself back a little since he's just a kid. Doesn't want to scare him away and all. ]

Most people who are slightly or even a little more grey here are the ones who live here. All the others were kidnapped here like you and me.

[mccallmebb]

The grey people are creepy.

[integrous]

You think so too?!

[ The answer comes out quickly and instinctively, and only after it Asahi realises she probably shouldn't have been that enthusiastic about finding someone who agrees with her finally after all this time. Especially when it's a kid. ]

I.. I mean, yeah, they totally are, aren't they? People like you and me are much cooler!
