The beast had leaped out of the hedges and bit down onto her leg. It begins to drag her back to the mists, away from the rainbow portal.
If Charlotte managed to touch the swirling rainbow lights, she is immediately carried off to the waiting room, where she'll see the professor, everyone who finished (just Freddie and two or three other people) and everyone who failed and either cried or screamed.Favorite sports:

Re: Zafflebrod's College and Preparatory School for the Magically Inclined
"What? There's still someone inside? And I'm the idiot?" Harold facepalms himself. He is still clothed, so going into the bulding probably isn't wise, and he has no intention of undressing...seems like this time he can't do anything but spectate. Wait, maybe there is something he can do...
"Take this with you" he says, pulling out from his pocket what does seems to be a coin, with runes inscribed and weakly pulsing with magic, and throwing it to one of the volleyballers. "When you find someone rub this with your hands, and I'll get them out of there. Just don't lose it.". "Same if you are in dire straits and need a way out" he adds, winking. He then watches the girls vanish into the gym.
The coin is nothing more than a beacon: when rubbed, it emits a sort of magic pulse that reaches Harold, letting him know where to open the portal (providing a way out of the building).To the optimist, the glass is half-full.
To the pessimist, the glass is half-empty.
To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Re: Zafflebrod's College and Preparatory School for the Magically Inclined
Charlotte skids to a stop, glaring in anger.
She stands there, concentrating hard, and raising a hand, then swiftly swinging it downward.
4 silver spears materialize and fling themselves at the beast with amazing speed, about 93 mph, as she darts towards the creature with a titanium spear in her hands."Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not, we never are. But that's not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?"

The silver spears hit the beast hard enough to apparently cause it pain. It makes an angry noise and releases its biting grip on Red (who has, as of yet, refused to cry out). As Charlotte approaches it with the titanium spear, it backs off and retreats back into the mists and bushes, where it can't be seen.
Red's leg and dress might be pretty torn up. The lighting here is bad enough to be unable to tell the extent of the injury. However, possibly surprisingly, there's no blood pooling on the ground (or even any blood visible on her leg: just clear saliva). "Okay, good job," she says, pushing herself up on her arms, then trying to force herself standing. "It's gone now; go into the finish."Favorite sports:

Tabitha's Locker
"I appreciate this, Tabby," Jill says. The inside of the school lockers are big enough to fit two people, even if only for an hour or two. Tabitha chose to sit out this particular disaster, and Jill managed to talk her into sharing it since Jill's locker is elsewhere.
Tabitha nods. "Yeah, after the last incident, I'm not in the mood to risk another clothing set. Hopefully those bugs don't get into my dorm..."
"I hear that. You lucked out, though! Wings!"
"This is after the faculty removed the extra eyes, the horns and bony crest, and shrunk me back down to normal size!"
"...At least you didn't need to get new pants, huh?"

"Uh... is that common?"
"...more so than you would think, but not in my locker."
Jill reaches down and picks up the dice. "Don't you play games that use this kind of thing?"
"You mean ones that use d6es at all, or ones based on d6es, or just dice in general?"
"...the games club really has a lot of variety, huh?" Jill states idly, rolling the dice onto the floor.
43.
"That's a lot of dots... I't probably enchante-AUGH" the dice streaks up Jill's nose, and she tumbles back in surprise and pain.

Tab and Jill ended up waiting quite a while after the incident subsided, so there is a plot-clone available for Isaac. A knock knocks at Tabitha's locker door.

There's a sigh.
"Tabitha, the school didn't actually ever tell anyone about the bugs, and only said anything at all by the time they'd built a nest and gotten into most of the campus. Do you think they'll get to announcing the end of it within three days of it actually happening?"Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Re: Zafflebrod's College and Preparatory School for the Magically Inclined
Teacher's Bunker
"We'll have our best pair of resonance experts on it, I'm sure they'll be thrilled to work with something this powerful and dangerous." The teacher coughs into their hand discreetly, "Bit of a death wish on both of them, you know. Not a week goes by where we don't have to hold a funeral for at least one, while the other's always going to claim time to mourn their lost partner. S'lazy is what it is." They shake their head in disapproval.
"Anyway, resonance is a dangerous field, so it only makes sense to attract fellows like that. But they'll have it done no matter how often it kills them." The professor gives a shrug and reaches up for the crystal gently, waiting for N'alae to deposit it in their hand.
Dorms
The bug avoids the bag, but takes the hint to fly off and join the others downstairs in the gym. Annoying things, but they've recently evolved enough of a sense of survival to know when to quit.
Merissa breaks down, quickly collapsing into Isaac and attempting to wrap him up rather thoroughly in her arms, "Oh geeze..." She laughs in hysterical relief, "People are going to talk if you keep having to rescue me like this." The kitten patch will try to do a congratulatory loop around Isaac's clothing, since Merissa has none for it to snuggle into at the moment.
In the Hive
Well, unless Peter is known for being able to punch through well woven silk bedsheets, touching the wall is going to be a problem. The fabric is springy and stretchy, but doesn't come apart under his fingers.
Though, as he's gotten further in, the buzzing has faded away enough to something bearable, and there is a deep, steady thrumb of something larger moving. All of the bugs he can see are scuttling along on the floor and the silk walls they've made instead of flying, all heading towards the same place.
Gymnasium -Outside Hive
((I should clarify, the rooms are above the gymnasium in the building, on the upper floors. There's likely no one hiding in the gym/hive itself, but fire does tend to travel upwards.))
The girl he gives the coin to throws it back as soon as he winks, covering herself with her hands more thoroughly and looking at him accusingly. It's clear that she thinks he was being perverted with that last gesture.
"Look, you came this far, if you're that scared of losing your clothes even though you've got some kind of protection, then just go on and hide in some other building. It's not so strange for people who don't want to be involved to hide in their rooms you know. Geeze." She stomps off, following the rest of her team.
Tabitha's Locker

Tabitha's Locker
Tabitha comes out of the locker, followed by Jill. "I've only been here less than a year, give me a break."
Jill, for her part, stumbles out of her locker, takes a deep breath, and ejects the dice out of her nose. It's bleeding, of course, but more importantly, the dice comes up with 34 little dots.
Tabitha's clothes turn to gold.
"Eeevil dice," Jill says, pulling a handkerchief out and stuffing it up her nose. Tabitha is simply shocked.

Re: Zafflebrod's College and Preparatory School for the Magically Inclined
Tabitha's Locker
Merissa's eyes go buggy and wide when she sees the effect and the apparent cause, "Oh crap, how did you two manage to stumble across an Artifact while the whole school was in a panic?" Artifacts are covered in most of the beginning courses, and what to do with one if you find it is very clear. Avoid it, handle it carefully if necessary, and give it to a teacher to catalog and possibly destroy.
Naturally, most students ignore these instructions and instead hoard artifacts like they're collectible trading cards (sometimes they are) and pick apart until the faculty inevitably finds them.
"Think we should mess with it? That's a lot of gold Tabby just scored there." Enough to pay for a hundred outfits like the one that just got engoldened.
Dorms
Merissa sniffs, but smiles through it, "No, let someone else handle it this time. This is only embarrassing, not a real threat. I just want to get to my locker and get some new clothes on." She pulls back and accepts the rain coat, donning it for whatever good it'll do to cover her.
"Can you come with me? I'd kind of like the company, and you're pretty handy in a pinch too." She giggles again, her smile letting him know she's not trying to tease.Last edited by Slii Arhem; 2014-07-03 at 09:06 PM.

Re: Zafflebrod's College and Preparatory School for the Magically Inclined

Isaac chuckles and helps either Tabitha up or drag her into her locker, depending on is she can move at all.
"If you're nervous Jill we can handle it. My bloody noses don't last as long." he says good-naturedly. After all, it's made gold and all it costed so far was a bloody nose? Seems pretty uneven for the positive so far.

Re: Zafflebrod's College and Preparatory School for the Magically Inclined
Tabitha's Locker
Grinning, Merissa takes the opportunity to showcase both her ridiculous strength and added leverage that her quartet of arms affords her, picking up Tabitha nearly entirely on her own, but still leaving Isaac a bit of room to help her out. Being physically powerful has helped her gain a lot of respect lately, on top of her involvement with the virus mess, and she'll definitely be trying out for volleyball come the fall team rotation.
"Mm, we should probably take turns, and maybe divide up the spoils if that's okay with everyone. Could be some risk to all of us, but if we can figure it out the rewards should be plenty." Plenty more than a bunch of gold thread? Now Merissa's just getting greedy.
Dorms
She stares at him oddly before remembering that he's very new to the school, even though he seems to have adapted so well, "Uh, all the lockers are in the class building, Isaac. But the skyway's on this floor, so I guess you're kind of right." She points down the hall towards the skyway, though it's off around a corner from them.Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

Re: Zafflebrod's College and Preparatory School for the Magically Inclined
Tabitha's Locker
Tabitha is hauled back into the locker. It's fairly standard, if with less clothes than is normal in lockers. Mainly just emergency changes, and gaming books.
Girl likes RPGs.
There's also a minifridge, a smaller locker, a bedroll, and an alarm clock... It's almost like Tabitha could live out of here if she really wanted to.
...You know, last time finals rolled around, no one saw her in the dorms for a while...
Tabitha looks at Merissa. "This is awkard, but... could you help me get these off? They're heavy."
Jill sits down on the floor. "Someone get out a notebook! I'm going to roll it again!"
81. The four present are suddenly stricken with a compulsion to partake in a choreographed dance scene.

Isaac shakes his head. "Close enough. C'mon, let's go." he says, starting to lead her in that direction...
Tabitha's Locker
The Die settles quietly onto the floor. A mighty chord reverberates through the locker!
DUN!
Isaac's head snaps up! Everyone's does! Music, still from nowhere swells! Everyone will, for a mighty, triumphant moment, know the words and moves to the single greatest dance routine in the history of magic-related dance routines!
With fiery passion, they take the first step-
And Isaac trips over the Die, falling flat on his face next to Tabitha, who probably didn't move much if she wasn't out of her heavy clothes by now.
The die lands on a 63, growing a bright yellow sunflower next to it, as if in mockery of the botched dance, which suddenly is gone from the air and their minds...Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Merissa and he will make it there, the halls being completely clear of bugs and people now. Everyone is either hiding somewhere, heading to fight the gym-hive for their clothes back, or taking advantage of the mandatory nudity to try to get in some people-watching.
Once they make it to the nearest unoccupied locker, Merissa will look at Isaac calculatingly, as if trying to judge something or get her courage up. Finally, she unlocks the portal to her lockerspace and swings it wide open, stepping back and raising an eyebrow.
"This is probably really blunt and forward of me, but you're pretty attractive, really brave, and a better guy than I ever thought would hang out with me. It feels pretty stupid to be saying this now, but do you want to head inside and maybe make out until all this is over?" Yup, blunt and forward describes that perfectly Merissa. Have fun digging yourself that hole!
Tabitha's Locker
After the aborted dancing is done, Merissa plucks the growing flower from the floor and tosses it aside, "Okay, no one toss this thing until Tabby is in new clothes. In fact." She leans over again and plucks it up, holding it tightly in one hand.
"Isaac, mind going to the washroom real quick? Jill and I can get Tabby undressed, and then we'll start this up again once she's decent." Assuming this is all done, they should be ready to roll again, and it'll be Merissa's turn this time.
She'll roll vaguely in Isaac's direction, since she's eager to keep trying it out and is facing the adjoining bathroom when she rolls.

Assuming that Isaac cooperates...
"Ugh, so embarrassing..."
"Come on, you could look good if you tried! Get some makeup and some clothes that are a bit flattering-"
"Ooor I could spend that on game books."
"It feels good to look good, trust me."
Tabitha is not convinced.
When the group settles down, Merissa rolls the dice, it looks like it's about to roll a 1... and then flops over to 93. The Dice shifts, bubbles, and stands up. A three-inch-tall fairy-like creature, wearing some kind of tabbard and a kilt, with small round insect wings. She looks at the four around her and crosses her arms over her chest.

And then they'll head into the locker and occupy themselves until one or both of them decides they should probably try to find and help Tabitha a few hours later!
And we'll leave it up to privacy what actually went on back there.

"Well now, let's check!" The little fairy snaps her fingers, and 47 little dots appear on the tabbard, before the wearer grows out of it. At the same time, Tabitha all but shrinks out of her clothes... while what was a fairy until a second ago turns into Tabitha. "Theory confirmed! You lot are terrible researchers, by the by, no one writing anything down."
A three-inch Tabitha fights her way out of her clothes. "What did you do?"
"Snap."
"...What?"
"Snap, girl. You'll see."
Tabitha snaps. Nothing happens.
