[...So, something has been bothering him for the last little while and he finally decided to bring it up. It seems as though he's been.... a little wary of letting his Pokemon out of its ball. After the darkness hit a few days ago, he's been afraid people will mistake Darkrai for another one or something.]

....Um... how do I word this....?

Even if something.... looks bad, is it really evil? I mean, appearances aren't everything, even something that looks nice could really be the bad guy.

What I'm trying to say is... [As he says this Darkrai floats behind him, Lucas told him to stay out of the video but looks like it was lonely being so far away from him. Lucas turns to look at the Pokemon.] ...Ah- Darkrai come on!

[and he turns off the feed prematurely here.]

[ Someone just found his bracelet again. And that someone is completely baffled. ]

Hey, come on! That can't be right. What was I doing for that long?!

[ What you see: A cute young girl, known as Himari - probably to many of you. "Himari" looks pretty strange, though - "Himari's" expression is, needless to say, kind of put off. Why?

Because What you get: is actually Pokémon Trainer Ethan inside of her body. Sans Pokémon. In a different room than he went to bed in. But the sans Pokémon part is still the worst. He found out that he actually had the body of Himari/predestination, but... there were other matters to attend to! ]

I woke up like this! [ Pointing at his new face. ] And in a different room.

[ Luckily, he's still in Sigyn. He knows his way around the house by now. ] Has anyone seen a large volcano Pokémon? Her name is Typhlosion. I hope she still remembers me, despite looking like this.

[ It sounds like he's complaining about a bad hair day............ ] And does anyone have any tips on what to do about this? [ Trainer Tips needed, please. ]

So, yeah. If you've seen a large creature with fire spurting from her back, let me know. She's gentle and calm, so she won't hurt you.

((replies will come from prinplup!))

[so the feed starts on to show this face here! who looks confused, probably the tiniest of nervous, but so far he manages to wince at his surroundings until acknowledging the feed.]

Okay by now I can tell I'm not the first but.. Has anyone figured out who it was that did this? And how we can change back?

[he looks to be walking around, looking puzzled now before stopping and mumbling.] Didn't I already go this way..?

..This isn't permanent, right?

[yeah you can bet he looks hopeful, except he wouldn't mind reassurance too and finally he's looking around, clearly he's LOST...]

Uhh.. Yeah, so, any help on that would be appreciated if you can. Also does anyone know--

[he tries to lean on a nearby table but slips amazingly, while also knocking down a vase in the process and then attempts to CATCH THAT BUT MISS COMPLETELY and both come to a crash with the feed whirling and shutting off.

so. smooth.]

(( tags will be coming from golurk !! ))

[Once upon a time in the Freya Welcome House, there's a shy girl who tends to be alone for the most part. Today, she mostly hiding her face with her hands. If one looks closer, it looks like there's something behind her hands that's on her face.

Also, she's actually sitting still on the middle of a slide and not sliding down at all. Nanase looks a little uncomfortable as she tries to move, but to no avail. Maybe her butt is glued to the slide. Who knows? She briefly removes her hands from her face and if you look fast enough before she lowers the camera upon realization, you can see that she's wearing a pair of these on her face. Forever judging...]

... I have a request. If anybody would listen...

[The voice starts off as meek and if you strain your ears, she sounds a little frustrated.]

Please don't use the slide in the Freya Welcome Hall from the fourth floor and above. [Or she will charm you to oblivion! ... Well, no not really.] And if somebody could give me a paper bag, I would really... appreciate it.

Thank you. [HOW DO YOU TURN THIS THING OOOFFFF--oh, there it is.]

[ His curse may have ended a couple of days ago but between the impromptu camping trip and needing some downtime, it's only now that Roxas manages to get to cleaning up his room because someone told him he should collect flowers for everyone. Which is what he did. Almost a full room of them in fact--and without the knowledge that flowers generally die without water he just left them on his floor.

It is now a huge, shrivelled mess he is having to clean up--they are literally everywhere. So today's video feed starts with him standing in his room with several garbage bags and flower remains just everywhere. ]

Does anyone know if there's like...some giant compost or anything we can use if we've got a lot of stuff that could go in it? All I could see are garbage bins and there's kind of a lotta stuff here... [ THANKS ARTHUR. ]

--Oh. And um...I guess. Sorry if I worried anyone a while back. I was cursed and couldn't really think that straight. I'm all better now though! Uh...yeah.

[ And then the feed ends and he'll get back to dragging these giant bags of dried-out flowers down out to the front of Freya's Welcome House until he can figure out what to do to them! ]


[ ooc; feel free to run into him anywhere in Freya c: his room will be open while he cleans up, so! ]

[ The video feed flickers on to show a flustered young lady, her cheeks blushing all too red that it's anyone's wonder if she's down with the flu/fever. She fidgets for a moment, seeming to take a while to compose herself, stifling a yawn. Then she smiles, a small shy one, her green eyes mildly confused and hesitant. ]

Ah... Hallo there. I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Liechtenstein, or more formally, the Principality of Liechtenstein. [ Now that sounds slightly too formal even to her own ears. If possible, her ears redden even further. ] Urm, just... Liechtenstein will do.

[ She fumbles briefly with the bracelet, trying to keep the view above her shoulders, as if embarrassed to show what's below. She clears her throat, pulling herself together even as she tries to still her wildly beating heartbeat. ] This might seem like a strange question, but if anyone has seen my brother, could you let me know? His name is Switzerland, and— [ At this point, she can't help giggling softly, before quickly catching herself. ] —he tends to carry a rifle around.

[ A small nod of her head in reminiscent of a curtsy. ] Thank you.

Hey! Thor, are you there?! Thor! Come on I want to introduce you to the newest member of your house club. You don't have a thing to worry about, because you got a great person on your side. Karen Araragi, one half of the Fire Sister duo. The stronger half with no offense to the weaker half that will lead you to victory. Together side by side as comrades against the forces that threaten good!

[She pauses for a moment and grumbles a little, though her tone isn't too upset.]

Still it kind of sucks. This place looks so gloomy and dark. Like I'm in some strange black and white film. And this deal about not being able to go home. It feels like I've been kidnapped into a storybook world. Maybe the more color we get in here...

--Ah I got it. How about paint! Paint will work to make this place colorful! Simple solution to a hard problem is always the best kind of solution. Can we paint this place to make it more colorful?

Hey, I just have a quick little favor to ask of you guys today-- see, I'm looking for a place to work, as long as it's with a real person and not just one of those weird ones from here.  Someone said the zoo's looking for someone new, but any ideas are welcome.

So!  Anyone here looking for a little help?  The easier the job, the better.

[after a while of trying to make sense of what the maid that welcomed him explained to him, Castor finally decides to get his bracelet to work & after... another while of trying to get that to work, he finally managed to get the video to work.... though he doesn't seem to realize it's working. he heard a sound but.. that's it]

Ah... was that it? Does it work? Hello? [he's not used to such technology so the lack of response troubles him. there's a concerned frown on his face] Perhaps I should just try.. maybe someone will hear me.

[he straightens himself up, coughing slightly before opening his mouth to speak]

My name is Castor. I am a knight of Arcadia, which.... I am not... in anymore. [a frown, but he quickly recovers with a small, friendly smile] This situation is ah, quite new to me & I am not sure exactly what is going on so I would like to ask for some assistance.

[there's a brief pause. woops looks like he finally realized how this 'video' thing works!]

O-Oh, um... yes well. I am s-still not used to this, er... this bracelet. I'm not sure how it works, yet. Perhaps someone can provide an explanation to me. [he sighs]

Oh, yes! I would also like to ask— [video cuts off! maybe he accidentally did something?]

[What begins with the feed is a light curse under his breath. Nothing major, but someone has woken up feeling and looking a little different than he's used to. His sight's changed, almost worse than before, and with the little height he's gained overnight, how he's moving his body is a bit different too.]

Tch. They're really not giving us a break anymore...

Of course, this still sounds like Riku. His voice hasn't changed at all, but there's a tone that wasn't present before. He's annoyed, and clearly pissed off, but there's a sense of maturity that might have only faintly been present before.]

Anyone got any temporary solutions to fix eyesight? Glasses aren't an option. [YET] Doubt healing is either.

[And with a pause, there's some rustling of what sounds like clothing, and a sigh that follows.] ...Probably some shirts too.

[For anyone that might be wandering around in Heimdall's kitchen in the morning, they might be treated to the sight of a different, older Riku, who doesn't exactly look pleased as he's raiding the fridge. He's gained a few inches in height even, but not much. Just enough to make his pants look short and his shirts tight across his chest. And occasionally, he can be seen holding his head in what almost looks like disoriented fashion. He could see clear as day the night before, but it seems this new, older body is nearsighted.]


((OOC: Forward dated to the morning of Day 91! Tags will be slow for the weekend due to plans that don't involve the internet, sadly ;; Just a forewarning for anyone. Sorry!))

--nk fluffy unicorns, dancing on rainbows... ♪

[Hello, Asgard. Nanase is feeling a little singsong today, except she doesn't seem to realize that she's seriously singing it out loud.]

Pink fluffy unicorns, dancing on rainbo--

[She looks like she just realized what she was doing, since she has the biggest unsure expression on her face. Nanase immediately cuts that off and the video feed turns off, replaced with the audio function. How embarrassing to space out like that--]

Um... Sorry about that. I didn't mean to... do that. [Oops.]

I'm Nanase Kuga... It's nice to meet you, but, um... I was wondering if anybody knew if I can buy a cell phone charger here. Or a digital camera. Some stationary too. Maybe something cute...

[There's a small pause.]

If somebody doesn't mind, could you help me practice my powers?

Thank you.

[The feed cuts with that. People in the Freya house lobby might see her still singing this song, maybe a little absentmindedly. Expression excluded while she's sitting down, staring at her bracelet.]

[ On screen you'll see Konoe with his cat ears perked and tail swaying in the background. He seems to be determined, but apparently some part of him is wavering. With a sigh he lets out a murmur as he looks down to prepare himself. ] I guess it's worth a shot...

[ But!! He looks back up with eyes of fury. ] I've been wandering around Asgard for a two moons now, but I wanted to make sure. Has anyone seen these two cats?

The first one has white, long hair--respectively round ears and a fluffy tail--kind of tall... Has an eyepatch. [ This is starting to sound ridiculous already which is the reason why he trails off for a bit while looking off to the side, but continuing on. ] Then the other one has black ears, a slicker tail, and some black markings on his bicep.

They don't get along well, so you might notice them fighting with each other if they were here. [ Embarrassing. ]

... Also, how does Asgard deal with curses? [ It doesn't take him long after that to turn off the device. THANK THE HEAVENS HE GOT THAT OVER WITH and he hopes he recorded it correctly. Technology is so foreign. ]
