GLoG VII: Now Vampire Free!

[Vespe Ratavo]

You don't have to drink it, you could have injected it...

Melody start growing to human height and weight. It might be a bit painful.

Stay calm...your genetic code is being rewritten...

Okay, now it's definitely painful. She'll hear her bones cracking, her skin will feel like it's being stretched like rubber, and there's this strange electric sensation.

Just hold on...it's almost over...

All this lasts for about fifteen seconds. At this point, she'll (probably) fall unconscious.

[Lex-Kat]

Melody screams in terror and pain.

AAAHHHHHH!!!!!!

And then she falls unconscious, before she's even done growing..

[Vespe Ratavo]

Er... The Doctor calls over some medical drones to take Melody to the infirmary, then returns to her work.

When Melody wakes up, she'll find a note on her head.

Sorry about that, I forgot about the whole "horrible burning pain from having your DNA rewritten" bit.

You should be fine now, though.

Sincerely,
The Doctor

[Boo]

Mr. Quinne is sitting beside Melody in the infirmary. He's buck naked!

If you react to that, then you'd be surprised to know that Mr. Quinne, himself, hasn't worn actual clothes since the wedding plot. He's (kinda) a mithral golem. What's the point?

[Lex-Kat]

Uhhh. Melody wakes up some time later. She doesn't react to Mr. Quinne being buck naked, because he's just a golem, and therefore, has nothing to react to. She reads the note.

Suddenly it dawns on her. She gives Mr. Quinne a big hug.

YEAH!! I'm tall! She jumps up and starts to dance around. But quickly realizes that she too is buck naked. She grabs the sheet and covers up. I guess I need some new clothes, don't I?

(((DEADTIME)))

[Boo]

He wobbles a bit from the dancing. "I set some out for you on the counter. I didn't want to dress you, because then I would have probably been accused of sexual harassment. But what do I have to look forward to? It's not like I have any organs." He thinks for a moment on how he sat by a naked woman for a time, then continues. "I guess this doesn't make me look any better, does it?"

The clothes on the counter are whatever Melody wants them to be, but maybe not as specific. Mr. Quinne sewed them up while she was out. Of course, he's too modest to say anything.

EDIT: Damn, oh well.

Mr. Quinne hands her the clothes, then leaves so she can get dressed in peace. (as pointless as that may seem now...) He wanders about GLoG in case any one else may need some help. Common enough in GLoG, no?

[Lex-Kat]

Melody, still draped in the sheet, hugs Mr. Quinne. Thank you.

After he leaves, she puts on the knee length brown skirt, and tan blouse. Then she walks out, and finds him. How do I look? She poses, stylishly.

[Boo]

"Very... pretty." He's a bit hesitant since saying the wrong words could lead to really any situation. Ranging from a "thanks! you're so sweet" to a "GRRR SHE HULK MAD!!"

GLoG: PBP Angst

I don't even know where I was going with that... Right, ignore that all. He just says "It looks good on you."

[Lex-Kat]

((Yeah, you have me baffled.))

Thanks. What should I do now? Oh, I know. I'll show my friends over in HALO. Thanks again Mr. Quinne. You're the greatest. She skips off towards Vespa the Doctor's ship.

Thanks Vespa. Though I do wish you'd given me some warning about the pain involved. Well. see ya later. She skips off towards the HALO/GLoG that hasn't always been there.

((DEADTIME again))

[happyturtle]

((I haz a migraine. So won't be around tonight at all.))

So this won't be totally ooc, Turtle, George, and Sarah all develop migraines, take the medication prescribed by the med drones, and go to bed.

[happyturtle]

((Okay, I woke up and am feeling somewhat less miserable, and also needed to eat, so undeadtime for a little while.))

Turtle, Suzie, and George are sitting at the kitchen bar eating rice and broccoli and still feeling feeble from their migraine.

[Kaelaroth]

Czer walks in, wearing a black wetsuit, dripping. Hello, everyone.

[happyturtle]

"We have a beach? I don't remember a beach."

[Kaelaroth]

No, I went swimming in the deeper parts of the forest river. Czer says, chilly, going to get a towel.

Kaela kraaaddaaambaaams into existence, on Susan's head.

[happyturtle]

Susan shrieks, and Turtle takes Kaela off her head and cuddles him.

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela giggles, being huggled. Me huuungry! Can me has snack, tur-tle fwiend? Me no eats the fleshies!

[happyturtle]

"Sure, babe." Turtle sporks him up some cookies. "You shouldn't appear on top of Susan like that. It scared her."

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela nods, and picks up a cookie with his tail, as he jumps fluidly onto George's belly, before devouring the biscuit. Yumsies! Can I has some time, Mister Man of Bigness?

[happyturtle]

"I have no idea what that means," George says, idly scratching him behind the ears.

[Kaelaroth]

Giggling, Kaela shakes his face into a tapir-like snout, and breathes in, nostrils very close to George, as he tries to suck out George's age, youthening him. Huuuungry!

[happyturtle]

((How much?))

George pushes Kaela away. "Aw, come on, don't eat boogers. Turtle will get you something better to eat. Turtle, what does he usually eat?"

"Meat. But he said 'no fleshies'. George, you look... different."

[Kaelaroth]

((Nothing more than twenty years. But up to you, 'part from that.))

Kaela smiles, gleefully, and, satisfied, he tries to crawl inside George's top.

[happyturtle]

George attempts to pull Kaela loose and hand him to Turtle, which makes him realize that his clothes are rather baggy on him. "What the...? What did you do, Kaela? Liposuction?"

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela is moved into turtle's arms, gigglin' all the while. What be lip... liyepo... What be... He notices something, and vanishes, away from turtle's arms, in a flash of pink light, and purple smoke, tinged with the scent of Coco Madamoiselle Chanel.

((deadtime))

[happyturtle]

George goes to the infirmary to figure out what happened to him, and to change into some clothes that fit.

Turtle and Susan are still in the main room.

[Kaelaroth]

Czernov walks into his and George's room, yawning.

[happyturtle]

George walks in, about 10 years younger and 20 pounds lighter.

[Kaelaroth]

Hey, George, da- Czer turns round. What....?

[happyturtle]

"Don't ask me, mate. I'm as confused as you are."

[Kaelaroth]

You do not look much older than me.. What did you do? Czernov says, entranced, as he walks closer to George, eyes wide as dinner-plates. It... It is you, is it not, George?
