LIVE SWAP

[neigh_sayer]

Who: C and you suckers
Where: Lobby
When: Day 62 afternoon

[OOOH SHIT IT'S A LIVE BUT--huh, the host is no where in sight??

Instead, on the table, there are many cups and bottles of potion. A tell-tale of Alcheme! But there is also a sign that reads:]

Do-It-Yourself Couples, Friends, and Strangers Fortunes! Pick a potion, link up with a buddy, and chug at the same time! See what the future holds for the both of you!

[There is a helpful illustration for what to do using stick figures.

This of course, is a prank live, and C does not actually know it will cause body swapping, as he's actually just experimenting and messing around. HOW ELSE ARE POTIONS GONNA GET MADE?? He's shrank himself, watching from some pillows on a chair a bit away. Nothing suspicious here!!]


[OOC: GUESS WHAT SUCKERS, THIS IS A BODY SWITCHING POST. NOTES:
-Icly characters MUST link arms for the potion to work. Who you swap with and how you get there is oocly up to you of course.
-When switched, all physical ailments remain on the original body. So if you swap with someone who is blind, guess you're dealing with their ailment now!
-Abilities do NOT switch, however. For example, even if C were in B's body, he can only use the powers he originally bought.
-The effect can last as short as you wish, and you can swap as many times as you want. Hardish maximum deadline for swap effects wearing off is Day 63, morning.
-Don't feel like swapping but want the points? Feel free to assume the potion failed, and go for either Sparkling or Nekomomimi ears, your choice.
-If you want to speak to C, hit him up here or specifically address him in your comment!
-I'm in Discord as Ash|Sleep if there any questions!! Predictably, I just may also be sleep sometimes.]

Holy shit. I can??

[forthetainted]

Why do you sound--

[ TURNS AND GRABBY HANDS AT. WHERE'S YOUR FACE why is your face so high up wtf ]

DUDE.

[stakesthesame]

[turns and


tfw when you look over you own head

wait weren't you on my other side

wait





wait



looks down]


W..what the fuck!

[forthetainted]

[ shoulders. Hair. SO MUCH HAIR. ears?? Pointy. Yes.

Grabs two handfuls of his (her...?) hair and tugs. Gently. ]

What! What happened. Is that my body. Am I in YOUR body.

[stakesthesame]

Y....You....

[just sort of being tugged, staring at 'her']

---that bastard C did this!

[forthetainted]

...

Of course he did.

[stakesthesame]

[rubssss face]

It's gotta have... a time limit, right..?

[forthetainted]

I can't imagine it'll last too long. But hey, you can see, right? You should have fun with it.

... I wonder if everything transfers though. Yo, see if you can play my bass.

[ her axe should still be slung over her back. It's... surprisingly heavy... ]

[stakesthesame]

But now you're blind...

[he didn't want that]

Bass... where-- oh.

[wait he found it. slinging it into his hands curiously]

[forthetainted]

I'll be okay, probably.

[ it's a Literal Axe so the edge is uhhh pretty sharp. But it's pleasantly heavy and the strap holds most of the weight thankfully... there's a number of scratches on the axe itself, like someone counted something down.

Meanwhile req floats herself a few inches, pleased. ]

Sweet, still got verticality.

[stakesthesame]

[touching the edge of the axe gently]

Whoa... this thing is so cool...

[distracted, practically sparking, it comes through in the voice pretty clearly]

[forthetainted]

Right? It's TOTALLY sick.

[ the excitement might be a little weirder in HIS voice tho. unfloats bc that's hard when ur blind. And awkwardly reaches forward until she finds his hands and positions them properly ]

So I guess if skills traded it's gotta come naturally, right?

[stakesthesame]

Uh...

[puts them on and does find his hands kind of naturally seem to find where to go]

The abilities didn't swap, though..

[strums absently...]

[forthetainted]

Yeah, that's a shame huh? You coulda floated all over the place.

[ ohh. Tilts her head. ]

Not too bad. Think you could figure out an A chord?

[stakesthesame]

[frowns and closes his eyes and tries to feel it out because it doesn't seem as unfamiliar as he'd expected but if you asked him to explain 'A chord' he'd be lost.

But he does pick something out close to it almost reflexively, and then after a couple of other attempts lands on it, and strikes it a few times in a row]

That one?

[forthetainted]

HECK yeah. Dude that's cool.

... aw shoot. I guess I should fill you in on stuff just in case we're stuck like this a few hours.

[stakesthesame]

[pauses in strumming]

Yeah? What's the matter?

[forthetainted]

Okay so, like. You're gonna need to eat something soon, probably. Please do not wait too long because otherwise you'll start imagining how red peoples' insides are and that's kinda gross.

Anything red will do though. Just, one, not my axe, and two, probably not blood. Don't drink anyone's blood in my body.

Also, don't do anything weird. I'll find out.

[stakesthesame]

Okay, I'll get a snack.

What do you mean 'weird'..?

[forthetainted]

... you know. Weird stuff.

Dude you're a dang adult I don't gotta explain jack.

[stakesthesame]

[oh

OH]

I-I hadn't thought about it! Oh-- shit I'm a girl now??

[forthetainted]

Yeah! Yeah.

So don't smooch nobody I wouldn't smooch, got it.

1/2

[stakesthesame]

I-I'm not going to-- -with anyone!

[stakesthesame]

--wait, who would you, uh, 'smooch'.

[forthetainted]

...

Why?
