Any day

[heroicarturia.livejournal.com]

[If anyone walks by the 2nd Community Housing building they will notice a rather large red figure, perched on the roof. Closer inspection will show that the figure is actually a rather large red dragon, looking down at the tiny villagers (well tiny from her perspective). One may also see the roof of House 9, which is not too far from the building has had it's roof destroyed from the inside out. It'll repair itself though.

ooc: just for reference, Saber's dragon form is only about ten feet tall and light enough not to destroy the 2nd housing roof.]

[Action]

[vulcanblazer.livejournal.com]

[One of the tiny villagers will look familiar to her. Though there's one very glaring physical difference. Adell is sporting very large white feather wings on his back. On top of this, he's chosen to wear more loose-fitting and comfortable clothes, and his walking speed is slower and more... relaxed and at ease than normal.

As he draws closer, he casts a slightly curious eye up at the red dragon perched on that building. Either way, he doesn't appear to feel threatened by it, and his demeanor still appears light and... airy.]

[lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com]

[Waking up late and well after Selphie is up is not unusual for Ceodore. Waking up remarkably shorter than normal is. He falls out of bed and starts when he realizes his hands are green. And holding a lantern and a butcher knife. WHAT?!

His first thought is to get the heck out of the house until he can figure out what's going on, and before some helpful soul in his house decides he's a good target for training. Anyone walking through the square will find one very lost and confused Tonberry (http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Tonberry) walking around.]

[eidolon-soul.livejournal.com]

[Rydia's on her way back to the house with some bakery goodies when she she spots the strange creature and just...stares.]

[biteshisface.livejournal.com]

Hnn...

[capital-justice.livejournal.com]

[Flynn, unaffected by the experiment for the time-being, found it odd to see someone he didn't recognize sitting outside of the house. So, as he was leaving the house for the day, he decided to stop by the person to see why they chose to sit there, of all places.

... On closer inspection, there's some weird feeling of familiarity.] Excuse me?

All Over The Place!

[markofthefraggd.livejournal.com]

[Sokka is just... going to try to go about his normal day. But this probably won't work out as he comes to the smithy and when he opens the door, he crushes the door knob instead. Oops. So much for that. And he thought having super strength was bad before? This is just ridiculous.

Aside from the smithy, he can be found around the plaza and at home. What a day.]

((ooc: I doooon't feel like making a full icon set for this, so I'll probably default to his main. Use your ~imagination~!))

[roboslaying.livejournal.com]

Sokka!

[ my my but buffy is looking rather...smiley today. she'll run into him in the plaza maybe? ]

all over!

[roboslaying.livejournal.com]

[ when she's out and about, buffy normally walks with a pretty natural, organic rhythm. today, she is walking more...stiffly. robotically. hmm. and she's had to struggle a great deal with that awkward buffybot programming that's working pretty hard to suppress buffy's actual personality.

so she's out in the village searching for the vampire she was "made for". never mind that the non-robo buffy knows he got sent home. buffybot is just a little too hung-up on spike to accept that fact. ]

/this will end so well.

[all7seas]

[Jack is busy in the village, gathering some of the supplies needed for the move to the ocean. But he stops and lights up when he sees Buffy. He waves to her from across the square.] Oi! Buffy! Hallo!

[asimplereason.livejournal.com]

[markofthefraggd.livejournal.com]

[As Sokka passes by, he suddenly 'hears' Winry's voice, but without being able to place any direction. He freezes in his tracks and looks around.]

Winry? [... his voice doesn't even sound the same now.]

All over the lower 7 inches of town

[simplestgift]

[What is this mess? WHAT IS THIS MESS? AAAAUUUGHH!

This is the most important thing about Archie Kennedy's day right now. Not the fact that he's seven inches tall and barely clothed. This kitchen. What is it.

So today, he'll be starting with cleaning his own kitchen, then working his way to Seventh Heaven (mind if he helps himself to some cake?), Good Spirits (booze!), and all other public establishments with kitchens, cleaning them as if it's his calling. Which it is, because he's a brownie. Then, in time, he will get to your kitchen. He has ways. Because this injustice cannot stand.

If you are a cat, you may feel the sudden urge to chase. This is perfectly natural and you should not feel concerned.]

heh heh heh

[all7seas]

[Jack doesn't usually see elves in Good Spirits until 4am on a Friday night, typically. So this has confused him a bit.]

Goblin.

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[What the hell.

No seriously, what the hell. What is wrong with those idiots who call themselves the Malnosso? Selphie was short enough to begin with and now they've made her tiny?! She's not over impressed with this sudden development as she screams the minute she looks in the mirror before stumbling out of bed and landing on the now clean floor with an oof.

This is injustice and she's annoyed about this and she opts to escape the house for a little bit. Yep, she's everybody's favourite little mascot with a potty mouth who gets put into little girly getups quite often.

So little girls or people in general of Luceti, what do you do when hear a stuffed toy muttering to itself about the stupid malnosso and equally stupid experiments in an annoyed sounding Selphie voice?]

[airborne-giles.livejournal.com]

[Giles opens one eye when he hears the grumbling walking by where he's current napping. And he pauses for a second, listening. Then he smiles wryly and tries to communicate with the...whatever it is.]

Count your blessings. At least you can still fit through a door.

[greenshifts.livejournal.com]

[Ranka had sometimes wondered what it was like to be Ai, it's true. It's hard to spend a lot of time with a little green blob and not wonder, to be honest. That said, she'd never expected to find out first-hand.

She'd screamed - well. Squeaked very vehemently at first, before that gave way to general flailing and wild squeaking and she can't even talk, this is horrible.

Feel free to see a funny little not-squirrel scampering around town anywhere.]

[lunarvalkyrie.livejournal.com]

[A funny little not-squirrel? That sounds like a monster. A harmless monster, perhaps, but a monster still. Cecil readies his spear.

Perhaps Ranka might want to tell the lady(???) that she's not an actual monster?]

Any Day, apologies for the TL;DR

[airborne-giles.livejournal.com]

[Throughout the first day or so, Giles will be sticking close to CH7 and the plaza. He can be found either pacing nervously, people-watching (he does have great vision in this form, at least) or dozing off somewhere sunny. It will be afternoon by then, and he'll have calmed down after waking up as a...whatever he is.

After he managed to find a mirror and get a good look at himself, his tentative diagnosis is "dragon".

But waiting and watching can get dull, even for him. And not everyone appears able to understand him. And the village is going insane again anyway - he's not the only one stuck out of his own shape. And at least he's not a vampire this time.

So throughout the second and third day, the reluctant Night Fury decides to try his hand at flying. Getting off the ground turns out to be relatively easy. Controlling his speed (oh dear god why so fast) is a bit less so. And landing is the worst of all. While he'll retain the presence of mind not to land on buildings or people, random villagers might find themselves risking a very close call with a large, black dragon before it smacks painfully into the ground.

By the time of the last few days of the experiment, Giles has about gotten the hang of being a dragon, and he'll be flying further and further out of the village to finally explore the rest of the barrier. Flying really isn't so bad when you're the one doing the flying.

And at any point throughout the week, Giles might be spotted occasionally dragging what look to be entire small trees in from the forest and dumping them behind CH7 with an incredibly pleased look on his face.

Until he figures out fishing, he won't stray too far from CH7 in the hopes that Helios and Frederic will make food for him.]

((ooc: Proper journal post to come later, and the post will be timed a bit more specifically. Replies to come from this image journal. Also, leaving it up to individual players's discretion if they want to understand him.))

[simplestgift]

[Have a brownie with a horrified look on its face, looking at the mess behind CH7. Oh, Giles. What have you done.]

Any day

[likenappa.livejournal.com]

[Waking up in the form of a fluffy little BonBon (http://shrines.rpgclassics.com/psx/suikoden/monster.shtml) kind of sucks. So does being rendered voiceless and barely-mobile. But after the first day, Jonathan's getting the hang of hopping around! It's just the whole being ankle-height thing that makes things difficult.

Feel free to find him wherever, as it's a whole lot easier to get oneself lost when everything else has suddenly become quite so big. He'll mostly be working on not getting himself stepped on. Or eaten by something bigger.
...ANDREW, HELP.]

[simplestgift]

[You have just been mistaken for a dust ball, Jonathan. A brownie is about to sweep you up with a tiny broom. Because brownies are helpful little critters like that.]

In Town, Today

[bornfromdragon.livejournal.com]

[So guys! Luffy's turned into an awesome pink dragon for this event! He's not THAT huge, only about eight or so feet tall, but he's stomping through town LIKE he's huge while breathing fire (mostly towards the sky so none of the buildings catch on fire) while yelling out. His voice hasn't really changed.]

RAAAAAAAAAWWWWR MEEEEEAT! GIVE ME ALL YOUR MEEEEAT!

Dragon meets Dragon

[heroicarturia.livejournal.com]

[Saber sees him from the 2nd building quite easily and soon flies down to the area, landing a few feet away from him. She's a bit taller than him though (a welcome change given how she's only five feet normally).]

Calm yourself at once!

[cutefiancee.livejournal.com]

[People turning into animals isn't that foreign of a concept to Ukyo. Happens to Ryoga, Shampoo and Mousse all the time. Who it doesn't happen to is her. And when they do, they can see. Ukyo however has awoken to find herself one huge, unwieldy creature without sight. Except for oddly feeling vibrations of everything around her. It's an odd sort of sight, but she's still blind.

And she is furious! So hello Luceti, there is one raging Badgermole (http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Badgermole) stomping through your village, turning up a hellalot of earth every time she moves.]

[otherless.livejournal.com]

[Oh come on. Really? This again? Isamu supposes this is at leas better then being a girl again, but surely the Malnosso could get a little more original with him for once.

At least he retained his usual memories. At least he thinks he did, anyway.

In any case, a demifiend fears no large animal and the back of this creature provides a nice viewpoint while allowing Isamu to be an overconfident dick. So you now have one partially demonic passenger, Ukyo.]

Hey, calm down, fluffy. Who am I riding?

The First Day

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

[this small white-yellow-blue glowing, winged thing is drifting around town. Occasionally it rings like a small bell.]

[distressedude]

[Hello little white-yellow-blue glowing thing, there's an Ionchu in your path! He's just going to tilt his head to the side with a soft Chuuu~ noise.]

[This experiment is so weird.]

Anytime, any place!

[dragoneer]

[Well as far as embarrassing situations go, this beats falling out a tree on his first day in every possible way. Hiccup floats around the city, hoping to find Toothless and make sure he's alright. He's trying to hide alongside buildings--not that he'd be recognized as a Luma, anyway--but he doesn't want to stop and talk to anyone, either.

Which is while you should bother him.]

[lioness-valiant.livejournal.com]

[There's a lioness (who until very recently was a little girl) strolling about town who sees the little green thing bobbing about and goes over to investigate. Perhaps this is something else she can practice her newfound pouncing skills on?]

[originaljackass]

[Jack is, needless to say, pissed at his new circumstances. He woke up in his bed.... a Lilliputian. He never care much for the tiny people up at The Farm, but he never disliked them. He took good care of the Lilliputian Jill, after all.

He was not fortunate enough to be a fairy or pixie, so with a lack of wings, he's forced to hoof it around on foot. At least the Malnosso gave him a pair of tiny New Feather pants to go around in. That hardly makes up for the fact that it's like he's back in the Giant's Home again, only this time with no beanstalk to escape down.]

This leaves him tragically two inches tall, riding around town on his blue bull, which itself is the size of a small dog. If he knew anything about Babe and Paul Bunyan, he might appreciate the irony of the beast being exactly the right scale to Jack as it used to be to all humans.

On the plus side, women are pretty hot from this low angle.]

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

[What's that sound coming from overhead?

It sounds suspiciously like the screech of a hunting bird.

And that growing shadow looks suspiciously like one too.

A few seconds later, Derek will land, mere inches from Jack and his 'mount' and clacking his beak in irritation. Sorry about that, dude. He thought you were dinner for a minute.]

March 27, plaza

[myswornduty.livejournal.com]

[Shortly after a filtered transmission (http://community.livejournal.com/lucetilocked/6296.html), an elven-eared boy appearing around nine years old, swathed in (familiar) clothes far too big for him, struggles out of the tunnels. He looks very frustrated and tired, having to climb in this awkward state.

He'll look a little lost, trying to decide what he needs to do next.]

[tintobrat.livejournal.com]

[Lilly spots this child and doesn't think much of him, save for those oddly familiar clothes. Hmmm.]

Are you lost?

fffff....really, I'm on hiatus. Really.

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

[Great News, Luceti! Derek can come out and play in the sun!

Bad news...he had to turn into a medium sized, thoroughly irritated, red-tailed hawk in order to accomplish it.

He'll be perching right over here, folks. On the edge of the fountain. Or a low hanging tree branch. The roof of a house.

Or maybe even on your head when he decides he's too tired to fly anymore...

Yay?]

[gamblinghigh.livejournal.com]

[Setzer is generally not interested in any sort of raw meat, but his new form is technically carnivorous. So don't mind him trotting over to have a look-see at you, Derek.

Also, unless Derek's actually seen death, he might be invisible, but either way, there's a bat-winged horse wandering near.]

pick a day, any day.

[usoppaka.livejournal.com]

[ Usopp did not have the luck of getting through this experiment untouched- and as such, there will be a suddenly less-manly-than-he-was-last-week centaur attempting to go about his business as usual.

Well, pardoning the first day, which mainly consists of wobbling around trying to figure out the "four legs" detail :|a ]

28th

[risingspirit.livejournal.com]

Usopp??

[Have an unaffected marine, you hooved pirate, you. The boy is incredibly tempted just to hop up on Usopp's back. He wouldn't mind, right?]

Man, this experiment is weird.

Near the river, lake and any other bodies of water

[tehoniongirl.livejournal.com]

[Waking up out of her room wasn't exactly what Jilly had been expecting when she opened her eyes.

And she really hadn't expected to be in the river. Or to have silver skin. Or seaweed tangled in her crazy curls.

...well, the last was at least a little less surprising.

Experiencing the unexpected has never stopped her in the past, though, and it's not about to start, now. So, as the day continues, one artist-turned-naiad will be exploring your waterways and cursing the fact that drawing supplies and water do not mix]

/river, marauding bridge

[all7seas]

[Jack is sitting on his marauding bridge, leaning against the railings so he can watch the water flow. It's nice to take a break from all the marauding once in a while and to enjoy nature.]

Everyday, any way

[hatesghosts.livejournal.com]

[ Liz is so beyond frustrated. She has no idea what she is, she's tuck in this stupid pose for reasons she can't fathom, and she feels like she needs a pee break but she can't take a pee break because she hasn't actually had anything to drink and she's not sure she currently has a bladder.

Other than that, will people stop staring? Liz wants to move like she did last time, it's creeping her out standing stuck like this for too long! ]

Any day!

[leafonmaihead.livejournal.com]

[By now, things that happen to her in Luceti just aren't all that surprising anymore. Miyabi wakes in the forest as a kitsune (http://www.creativeuncut.com/gallery-10/art/mdb-illust-kongiku.jpg) but, unlike many of the other Lucetians, she doesn't freak out over her new body - despite the mental grumbling of frustration. She's had a rough night, and really just wants to go to some place that's a bit more calming.

So, she takes a walk back to Ammy's tree and looks under the roots for the wooden box she kept of her art supplies. After a bit of muddling, she sets up, dips her brush in the ink...and lets it hover. What should she paint? She doesn't...really feel like painting anything right now - she was too worried about one of her friends. Losing someone was never easy. Looking up, she stared into the branches of the cherry tree and a faint smile spread on her face. Yes...it really was hard to have someone get sent back home.

Later on, if anyone ventures out to the cherry tree for any reason, they'll find the humanoid fox - with perhaps one or two of the local Luceti foxes curiously investigating her - pressing the leaf that was once on her head to her lips and playing a song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LH7ORwaD32A&feature=related) on it, all while looking up at the tree's branches.]

[distressedude]

[Attracting local predatory fauna is probably not the best idea when some of the residents have become small and delicious looking. At some point, Miya's song will be interuppted by a loud squeak as a small yellow Ionchu rushes past her and scampers up the tree, one of the foxes chasing not-too-far behind him.]

[He's too spooked by the fox to realize just how high he managed to climb in such a short burst, and for now, it's probably best he stay that way. The last thing he needs is to fall out of a tree!] Chuu...

[wise_maiden]

[After some certain events took place, eventually Raine might be found either:

a) Curiously lurking near one of the bridges or streams, either as herself or in a curious form, or

b) As far away as possible from aforementioned stream, trying to stash an odd looking fur cloak in either a box or a tree and then struggling with the idea of actually leaving it there, or

c) Just trying to do her normal rounds this week. It's just an experiment, maybe the students will have valuable things they've learned from it, right? Surely there are others who may need help, and can distract her from this predicament.]

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

[Somewhere in your general vicinity, a small ball of light is being chased by a crow]

Second Day

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

[Maybe, from far away, Ginko doesn't look so different.

But even at a distance he might feel a little different, to nature-or-supernaturally-attuned individuals.

And close up, no one could help but notice the strangely iridescent, creeping moss and fern (http://pics.livejournal.com/one_green_eye/pic/0007p31f) that have wound their way through the fibers of his hat-- the edges of his box-- even the corners of his coat.

There is a race, a species-- in the same sense that you might call a jellyfish an "animal", despite being a network of individual living things-- from his world, with the same attributes he finds himself with now. In his world, they're known to some as "gods".

But he's somewhat distractedly wandering through the forest's outer edge (disoriented, he first ended up walking toward the town instead of away).... hoping that it will all just escape notice. Until his head is clearer... ]

[illusional]

[Ginko could have a sunflower growing out of the top of his head and he wouldn't look any more different to Cheyenne than he would if he were normal. Namely because everything looks different to Cheyenne right now. Having regular non-illusionist eyes does that to you.]

[Still, she hadn't seen anyone else with plants growing on them, so he's an interesting sight all the same. She had no real reason to approach him, but conversation was a much more pleasant way to pass the time than sitting around the grass and watching the sky.]

[Unfortunately, she has no idea the person she's looking at is Ginko at all.]

...is it not uncomfortable to have a plant living upon one's clothing?

First day, morning

[blessedbyfarore]

[Wheeee!]

[Well, someone's having fun with his new body. Link is cheerfully spinning, whirling, and occasionally bouncing straight across the fountain in order to see how many times he can hop before he starts to sink and has to flail for the edge. He's assuming he's some sort of Deku - the face is a dead giveaway, at least - but this particular body seems a little more mobile than the ones he's used to.]

[It's really quite fun, actually.]

[lioness-valiant.livejournal.com]

[Have an exploring lion accidentally bump into you from behind.]

Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't see you there.
