ϡ - Chapter TwentySix; And now for something not so different [voice/action]

[folklorist]

[ There's a loud splash as someone gets dropped off by the droids...in the river by House 35. The figure that steps out from the embankment is not a familiar face. Most people might not recognize him or perhaps you saw him like this once before. But that's neither here, nor there. Yes, her. The voice over the transmission is completely feminine and most likely unfamiliar. ] Oh for heaven's sake not again.

[ Just an annoyed huff. Wonderful Malnosso, just wonderful. Once again he's a woman. You might hear him mumbling something under his breath as he tries to dry off clothes far too big for him now. Far, far too big since they were his but...well wardrobe change aside not much else has changed this time. Time to go shopping...again. This would be so much easier if he had any fashion sense whatsoever. Mumbled: ] You would think doing this once before would ruin the fun.

[ Oh silly Helios there is always fun to be had in Luceti. Awkward or otherwise, everyone gets involved. He clears her throat before letting out a sheepish laugh. Not very well known, in her tone at least, but the action should be familiar. ] Oh. Um. I'm-I'm back. Did...did anything happen while I was away? [ He realizes shortly afterward no one will actually recognize his voice like this. Derp. Still he sounds none too pleased about the ordeal. Helios will make his way towards the town in seek of more...appropriate clothing. Of course he's really not paying attention, his mind elsewhere at the moment, so...have a blonde haired woman tripping as she walks. A slight 'Ah!' for emphasis. Sad part is that there's not even heels involved this time. Trees. Who put those roots there? ]

((ooc; Coming off hiatus super early. Also will be replying with magicboobs Note: Helios still identifies as himself this time around he's just female bodied. So yeah...enjoy that.))

Avoid the high heels this time and we'll see.

[Giles moves around to another isle, checking for any sign of gardening implements.]

[ Just...just a frown. Low blow Giles, low blow! ]

I still can't understand how they do. [ Just mumbling that to himself as he goes to pick out a semi-cohesive outfit. ]

[consultmybooks]

[You threw it over the pitch, Helios. He's morally obligated to take a swing.]

Magic. I thought we'd agreed on that.

[magicboobs.livejournal.com]

[ Morally obligated? Psh! ] They weren't my idea. The Malnosso made me come back in them. [ His hurt tone of voice sounds more convincing as a woman at least. ]

I know, I know! There has to be an art to it, magic or not. [ He's really not curious enough to try this at any point in time. His dignity is already in shambles. ] It's dangerous magic, worse than black magic I figure.

[consultmybooks]

The very blackest. Probably why it's kept as such a great secret.

[ Helios just laughs at that. He'll pick up a decent outfit, quickly turning around to check something. His shoulders hunch as he looks mainly at his arms, there's a sigh as his eyebrows knit together. They didn't take them away then. He should have known. The Malnosso doing something decent like that for this form. He'll pick up a jacket or two along with some jeans and shirts. ]

I think I have everything. Should be enough for the next few days at least.

[Giles pokes his head out a few aisles down. He gives Helios' choices a once over before, well, shrugging.]

Looks that way from here. Let's get you home, then.

[ They're both doomed to having a sadly unfashionable life, well, as far as clothes are concerned. ]

Ah. I never thought I'd be so happy to sleep in my own bed. But yes! Lets. [ Helios will lead the way this time. Back out into the village square holding the door open for Giles as he waits. ]

[consultmybooks]

[Giles nods appreciatively at this gesture before leading the way back to their building.] Among other things you missed, you'll be pleased to hear that Frederic is finally doing a bit better.

[magicboobs.livejournal.com]

He is? Thank goodness. I was...beginning to worry. After all the things he said to me about, about his mind and... [ He purses his lips and shakes his head. ]

[consultmybooks]

...the things he said to me, as well.

I don't know what changed his mind...possibly the fact that I gave him the name of a plant that could have done the job...but he finally seems to have acknowledge that this isn't the answer.
