New Species Event - Mass Interaction Log

[lucetimods]

Who: Anyone!
What: All in here
When: Today, Tomorrow, Until April 2nd
Where: Anywhere in Luceti!
Summary: People in Luceti wake up as something they weren't before. An elf, a gremlin, a vulcan, or perhaps a mermaid? Try living in someone else's shoes... if they can even wear those.
Rating: Not recommended for those with weak constitutions, raging hormones, shipping goggles, or people just too cool and attractive for this kind of thing.

No need for LJ Cut! Mass action style stuff all around town. You can use this if you don't want to make a post. Or you can make a post anyway. Have at!

[AHA! It's some kind of giant lightning bug... that jingles. He turns around and goes over to one of the counters. He knows just how to deal with this. Now where did he put that bottle?]

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

[trying to hide and put out that infernal glow but it's...just...how fairies work. She can't stop the shine]

[markofthewise]

[Now then, SOkka is going to do his best to stealthily sneak up on her and pin her inside the bottle. It's how he deals with bugs at home.]

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

[and she will try to zip away but the rush of air that comes with the bottle sends her for a loop - so on his second try, he will catch her]

[markofthewise]

[Having no lid, he uses his own hand to keep her inside.]

There! I wonder how you got in here? [He holds the bottle up close to get a good look.]

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

[Something about being in this bottle makes her feel powerless. She places her tiny hands against the glass and hopes he can hear her.]

Please! Let me out!

[markofthewise]

[Nope, can't hear her through the bottle. But looking closely, that looks less like a bug and more like.... a tiny person. Being not very good at these sort of things, he taps the glass.]

Uh, hey? Can you understand me?

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

Yes, I-

[hmm. Frown. And then a slow nod.]

[markofthewise]

[He can recognize a nod. Well then! No need to toss her outside. Still lacking in any kind of subtlety about this kind of thing, he flips the bottle over to deposit her into his hand.]

Are you new around here or is this more experiment stuff?

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

[there is a small 'oof' as she tumbles into his hand, and she rubs one shoulder as she sits up]

It's an experiment. I'm supposed to be...human-sized.

[markofthewise]

... so they shrunk you.

[He gestures to his own face.] I usually don't look this freaky either.

[sighs, her wings slumping in tandem with her shoulders]

I came in here to avoid the birds.

[markofthewise]

[... oh man, birds. That would suck for being so little. He looks sympathetic and a bit awkward and like a member of KISS.]

Uh, sorry for putting you in the bottle. I was just going to put you back outside.

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

It's all right. I can understand what you must have thought...and thank you for not trying to squash me instead.

[markofthewise]

[He winces at that. Man, he almost would have done that, if she had been like a beetle or something. A cool glowing bug is too cool to squish.]

Aha, yeah. That would've been pretty bad. Um. [He glances around, not sure what to do now. Why does he have to deal with these kinds of things?] Is there anywhere I can take you? Or you can stay here, I guess.

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

I have been trying to get back to house one.

[markofthewise]

Oh, I know where that is! [He should, having been in Luceti for so long. But it stands out because Anise used to live there and was his neighbor for a few months.]

I can take you there.

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

Thank you. That's very kind.

[markofthewise]

[Well, he'll just start walking on out, trying his best to keep her balanced in his hand.]

Uh, I'm Sokka, if you didn't know already. [But he has no idea who she is. Too tiny for him to make out her features, especially with the glow.]

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

I'm Nephry. I believe we've spoken before. ...I know your sister.

[markofthewise]

[Oh, he vaguely recognizes the name.]

Oh, right. You umm... were a lot taller then. [Derp.]

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

So I've heard.

[markofthewise]

Well, don't worry. Once we get you home, your friends will put you somewhere safe where you can hang out until you're back to normal!

[nephaery.livejournal.com]

That would be nice in theory. But I feel compelled to...continue flying.

[markofthewise]

Well you can fly around inside, right? No birds there.
